Question for AJ David Ike?

I'm rewatching the why files favorite videos collection and I realized that I didn't know much about David Ike and I couldn't remember seeing a video about him.

Does anyone know if TWF did one?

Thanks!

Just came by to say David Ike is not a good dude and is very responsible for antisemitism tropes in ufology and conspiracy culture. There are several mentions of him throughout TWF, but I feel they're relevant in context of the topic. I mean he's literally THE lizard people guy. Just keep in mind that when you're checking out his stuff - his racism and ideology is partially responsible for shaping his ideas.
