Yeah, I listened to this and didn't agree with their take at all. Farrell was talking about the one 'flavour' of element-115 we've been able to create so far, which has a half-life of a fraction of a second, etc. What about a more theoretically different form of element-115, one with a more stable isotope? They didn't consider that possibility. The 115 Farrell talked about was a tiny group of atoms they briefly 'synthesized' in a lab. Lazar describes a material with substantial mass, orange in colour, if I recall correctly. In any respect, a solid and completely stable substance you could probably hold in your hand. Not the same thing!
If Lazar was a fantasist, as they seem to maintain, how did he know about Groom Lake/Area 51? Knowledge of the complex was not in the public domain at the time. He knew. And he knew about Papoose Lake, and Janet Airlines. He couldn't have known about any of it unless he was really there. His missing credentials aren't a good argument either. 'They', the powers that be, obviously tried to have him erased when he started opening his mouth. They didn't quite succeed. Again, if I recall correctly, his time at JPL did check out in the end.
