UFO Patents and Government Secrecy Orders

What happens when a patent lawyer becomes a stand-up comedian — and then starts talking about UFOs, AI, lawsuits, Hollywood, and politics?

In this long-form conversation, Wesley Austin breaks down the realities of patent law, bombing at open mics, anxiety, lawsuits, government secrecy, AI replacing white-collar jobs, and why money stops motivating you faster than people admit.

From filing $15K patents that can take years to approve, to working on secure phones for the NSA, to debating UFO sightings, Bigfoot, and government transparency — this episode moves fast, gets weird, and stays honest.
