I just had a look at the last jre podcast with some ufo guy that supposedly worked at some secret facility, and i think the coïncidence between what the guy described (some weird propulsion mechanism from fallen UFOs) and the patent linked in the article troubling. There’s definitely some very weird stories gaining popularity at the moment.
I don't think there's a connection. The interviewee, Bob Lazar, is pretty well known in UFO enthusiast circles and has been telling the same story for decades now.
