1 00:00:10,430 --> 00:00:08,179 in their never-ending search for the 2 00:00:12,470 --> 00:00:10,440 miracle weapon CIA operatives searched 3 00:00:14,690 --> 00:00:12,480 here in the remote mountain areas of 4 00:00:17,240 --> 00:00:14,700 southern Mexico but what up to then had 5 00:00:20,080 --> 00:00:17,250 been considered a myth magic mushrooms 6 00:00:23,900 --> 00:00:20,090 the clip you're listening to is from a 7 00:00:26,599 --> 00:00:23,910 1979 news report and it's one of the 8 00:00:30,679 --> 00:00:26,609 chapters in the fairy tale version of 9 00:00:33,470 --> 00:00:30,689 the CIA's involvement with psychedelics 10 00:00:38,389 --> 00:00:33,480 and as strange is that opening 10 11 00:00:40,520 --> 00:00:38,399 seconds was it gets even stranger they 12 00:00:44,000 --> 00:00:40,530 use this man a part-time chemist with 13 00:00:46,069 --> 00:00:44,010 the CIA to do this man a vice president 14 00:00:48,290 --> 00:00:46,079 of a bank and an amateur mycologist or 15 00:00:49,940 --> 00:00:48,300 mushroom expert to try to get to the 16 00:00:51,830 --> 00:00:49,950 magic mushrooms and turn them into a 17 00:00:54,319 --> 00:00:51,840 drug but it would be the amateur-hour 18 00:00:56,330 --> 00:00:54,329 Gordon Watson and his colleagues who 19 00:00:57,229 --> 00:00:56,340 would win the race and develop the drug 20 00:00:59,930 --> 00:00:57,239 psilocybin 21 00:01:02,479 --> 00:00:59,940 from the magic mushrooms another notion 22 00:01:05,929 --> 00:01:02,489 that a Wall Street banker like Gordon 23 00:01:07,760 --> 00:01:05,939 Wasson who is deeply connected at the 24 00:01:11,030 --> 00:01:07,770 highest level to the United States 25 00:01:13,219 --> 00:01:11,040 government to the director of the CIA to 26 00:01:16,609 --> 00:01:13,229 the Council on Foreign Relations which 27 00:01:19,820 --> 00:01:16,619 is like the most influential group in 28 00:01:22,580 --> 00:01:19,830 Washington the idea that he was somehow 29 00:01:25,880 --> 00:01:22,590 the central figure in the discovery of 30 00:01:29,780 --> 00:01:25,890 magic mushrooms in the hills of rural 31 00:01:32,990 --> 00:01:29,790 Mexico is just again it's the stuff of 32 00:01:36,920 --> 00:01:33,000 fairy tales but if we're to pull apart 33 00:01:40,010 --> 00:01:36,930 and truly understand what psychedelics 34 00:01:42,560 --> 00:01:40,020 are and how they've been used in our 35 00:01:45,649 --> 00:01:42,570 culture and how we might use them going 36 00:01:48,050 --> 00:01:45,659 forward well this story might have a lot 37 00:01:50,870 --> 00:01:48,060 of significance to those questions and 38 00:01:54,620 --> 00:01:50,880 that is at least certainly the opinion 39 00:01:57,679 --> 00:01:54,630 of today's guest on skeptic Oh Joe at 40 00:02:00,830 --> 00:01:57,689 well they do not have any concern 41 00:02:03,410 --> 00:02:00,840 whatsoever for the human value of their 42 00:02:05,330 --> 00:02:03,420 subjects these are lab rats they knew 43 00:02:06,889 --> 00:02:05,340 perfectly well that the drug produced 44 00:02:08,660 --> 00:02:06,899 psychosis and they knew perfectly well 45 00:02:10,460 --> 00:02:08,670 that a fraction of the people wouldn't 46 00:02:12,650 --> 00:02:10,470 going to come back but they went forward 47 00:02:16,100 --> 00:02:12,660 with the experimentations regardless 48 00:02:18,050 --> 00:02:16,110 this was all used against us once the 49 00:02:20,780 --> 00:02:18,060 sex drugs and rock and roll culture was 50 00:02:23,840 --> 00:02:20,790 artificial it was used against us it 51 00:02:27,590 --> 00:02:23,850 really debased and damaged our culture 52 00:02:31,130 --> 00:02:27,600 and so now as we you know hats it here 53 00:02:33,920 --> 00:02:31,140 we have you know this new era new drugs 54 00:02:37,640 --> 00:02:33,930 new research new government involvement 55 00:02:40,180 --> 00:02:37,650 we just aren't in a position until we 56 00:02:48,590 --> 00:02:40,190 know what is controlling the government 57 00:02:51,970 --> 00:02:48,600 to trust these things stick around all 58 00:02:54,750 --> 00:02:51,980 that and a lot more coming up on 59 00:03:02,970 --> 00:02:54,760 skeptical 60 00:03:06,130 --> 00:03:02,980 [Music] 61 00:03:08,470 --> 00:03:06,140 today we welcome Joseph at loyal back to 62 00:03:10,750 --> 00:03:08,480 skeptic oh he's here today to talk about 63 00:03:13,180 --> 00:03:10,760 some of his recent research in writings 64 00:03:15,730 --> 00:03:13,190 into the topic of psychedelics and 65 00:03:18,640 --> 00:03:15,740 theage ins how those have been 66 00:03:21,160 --> 00:03:18,650 introduced and promoted in our culture 67 00:03:24,490 --> 00:03:21,170 and what the implications of those might 68 00:03:26,140 --> 00:03:24,500 be for our culture going forward of 69 00:03:28,479 --> 00:03:26,150 course we talked about this subject a 70 00:03:30,309 --> 00:03:28,489 little bit a couple of episodes back and 71 00:03:32,979 --> 00:03:30,319 have been very interested in bringing 72 00:03:36,190 --> 00:03:32,989 Joe's voice and perspective to this 73 00:03:38,770 --> 00:03:36,200 discussion as I think he has a very very 74 00:03:42,009 --> 00:03:38,780 interesting and unique angle to bring to 75 00:03:45,330 --> 00:03:42,019 this topic Joe at well is of course the 76 00:03:46,509 --> 00:03:45,340 author of Cesar's Messiah a book that 77 00:03:48,759 --> 00:03:46,519 single-handedly 78 00:03:51,520 --> 00:03:48,769 forever changed the landscape of 79 00:03:53,530 --> 00:03:51,530 biblical studies and our understanding 80 00:03:56,080 --> 00:03:53,540 of the Roman influence on Christianity 81 00:03:58,270 --> 00:03:56,090 he's one of my favorite guests Joe 82 00:03:58,780 --> 00:03:58,280 welcome back to skeptic oh thanks for 83 00:04:00,970 --> 00:03:58,790 joining me 84 00:04:03,460 --> 00:04:00,980 well thank you for having Alex and what 85 00:04:05,770 --> 00:04:03,470 a kind introduction it's all true 86 00:04:08,710 --> 00:04:05,780 you know I look around and I say who are 87 00:04:11,110 --> 00:04:08,720 people you can point to who on their own 88 00:04:13,949 --> 00:04:11,120 without any institutional support 89 00:04:16,930 --> 00:04:13,959 without any of the university support or 90 00:04:21,039 --> 00:04:16,940 government support just kind of on their 91 00:04:22,870 --> 00:04:21,049 own organically kind of shaped things in 92 00:04:26,020 --> 00:04:22,880 a different way and I think that's just 93 00:04:29,830 --> 00:04:26,030 amazing about what you did with Cesar's 94 00:04:32,830 --> 00:04:29,840 Messiah so I am an O of that but I say 95 00:04:36,460 --> 00:04:32,840 that because anyone listening knows that 96 00:04:37,840 --> 00:04:36,470 I respect your work but it doesn't mean 97 00:04:40,360 --> 00:04:37,850 that I always agree with all your 98 00:04:42,280 --> 00:04:40,370 conclusions and it doesn't mean there's 99 00:04:44,980 --> 00:04:42,290 anything wrong with that either in fact 100 00:04:47,890 --> 00:04:44,990 you know maybe this is a little side 101 00:04:50,260 --> 00:04:47,900 issue that we can kind of talk about at 102 00:04:54,040 --> 00:04:50,270 the beginning because I think this 103 00:04:57,400 --> 00:04:54,050 ability to listen to someone else to 104 00:05:00,550 --> 00:04:57,410 genuinely learn from someone else and at 105 00:05:02,320 --> 00:05:00,560 the same time have you know some 106 00:05:04,870 --> 00:05:02,330 fundamental disagreements with that 107 00:05:08,110 --> 00:05:04,880 person is something that's not only 108 00:05:11,020 --> 00:05:08,120 missing in our polarized culture because 109 00:05:15,100 --> 00:05:11,030 we can see that it's missing but in a 110 00:05:16,540 --> 00:05:15,110 very kind of Joe Atwell way I think we 111 00:05:19,660 --> 00:05:16,550 and also see that it's been 112 00:05:22,150 --> 00:05:19,670 intentionally engineered out of the 113 00:05:24,040 --> 00:05:22,160 culture and I was wondering if you have 114 00:05:28,150 --> 00:05:24,050 any thoughts on that to kind of start us 115 00:05:30,870 --> 00:05:28,160 off well I would say that discourse 116 00:05:35,710 --> 00:05:30,880 politically political discourse has been 117 00:05:37,650 --> 00:05:35,720 engineered over time by the basically 118 00:05:42,430 --> 00:05:37,660 secret society the oligarchs that 119 00:05:45,790 --> 00:05:42,440 control our culture in our media and the 120 00:05:49,290 --> 00:05:45,800 kind of Talking Heads that you get in 121 00:05:51,550 --> 00:05:49,300 mainstream media are basically 122 00:05:53,650 --> 00:05:51,560 intellectual weapons they're just there 123 00:05:56,830 --> 00:05:53,660 to kind of prevent people from thinking 124 00:06:00,430 --> 00:05:56,840 clearly and so what happens whenever 125 00:06:02,650 --> 00:06:00,440 anyone brings up real issues like 9-1-1 126 00:06:05,920 --> 00:06:02,660 is basically the you know mainstream 127 00:06:09,280 --> 00:06:05,930 media just shouts them down uses 128 00:06:11,830 --> 00:06:09,290 intimidating language and over time the 129 00:06:15,460 --> 00:06:11,840 population has just become used to it 130 00:06:17,260 --> 00:06:15,470 and so and weary and they become they 131 00:06:18,760 --> 00:06:17,270 become weary or they become polarized 132 00:06:21,640 --> 00:06:18,770 which is what we see I mean they were 133 00:06:23,740 --> 00:06:21,650 weary before and now what we see is this 134 00:06:25,300 --> 00:06:23,750 kind of polarization added to the 135 00:06:29,350 --> 00:06:25,310 weariness it's kind of a double whammy 136 00:06:32,560 --> 00:06:29,360 sure and so the point is is that real 137 00:06:36,370 --> 00:06:32,570 discourse is very difficult to engage in 138 00:06:38,020 --> 00:06:36,380 in inside the media because of how it's 139 00:06:41,500 --> 00:06:38,030 been structured and this has really 140 00:06:44,710 --> 00:06:41,510 affected people's expectations about 141 00:06:47,800 --> 00:06:44,720 intellectual discourse and so it occurs 142 00:06:50,710 --> 00:06:47,810 in a very very low level and this would 143 00:06:54,070 --> 00:06:50,720 be basically a great thing to improve 144 00:06:57,400 --> 00:06:54,080 because this would help you know culture 145 00:07:01,270 --> 00:06:57,410 and democracy okay so with that let's 146 00:07:03,340 --> 00:07:01,280 jump into kind of today's subject we've 147 00:07:05,170 --> 00:07:03,350 gone a couple of rounds on this already 148 00:07:06,760 --> 00:07:05,180 and you've been very patient with me I 149 00:07:09,490 --> 00:07:06,770 was originally putting together this 150 00:07:11,590 --> 00:07:09,500 show on psychedelics and in Thea Jones 151 00:07:13,690 --> 00:07:11,600 and I contacted you and we actually did 152 00:07:17,410 --> 00:07:13,700 all interview and a lot of exchanges 153 00:07:21,550 --> 00:07:17,420 back and forth but I'm hoping we can 154 00:07:23,230 --> 00:07:21,560 capture what you're really all about on 155 00:07:25,480 --> 00:07:23,240 this because you have some really 156 00:07:28,270 --> 00:07:25,490 interesting ideas and I first ran across 157 00:07:28,629 --> 00:07:28,280 it while I was putting together that 158 00:07:32,730 --> 00:07:28,639 show 159 00:07:35,080 --> 00:07:32,740 so I want to as well as succinctly but 160 00:07:38,800 --> 00:07:35,090 thoroughly I'll have a contradiction 161 00:07:42,999 --> 00:07:38,810 talk about your idea your understanding 162 00:07:46,480 --> 00:07:43,009 about how the CIA and others have had 163 00:07:49,540 --> 00:07:46,490 their hand in shaping this cultural 164 00:07:52,179 --> 00:07:49,550 revolution of sex drugs and rock and 165 00:07:55,510 --> 00:07:52,189 roll in particular the drugs and the 166 00:07:58,779 --> 00:07:55,520 psychedelics and this debasing of 167 00:08:00,850 --> 00:07:58,789 culture that you see in that so wherever 168 00:08:04,480 --> 00:08:00,860 you want to start let's just take take 169 00:08:07,360 --> 00:08:04,490 us through the whole picture there in 170 00:08:09,429 --> 00:08:07,370 terms of what you've discovered well 171 00:08:12,369 --> 00:08:09,439 it's a it's a long historical process 172 00:08:15,550 --> 00:08:12,379 you can go all the way back to Karl Marx 173 00:08:19,990 --> 00:08:15,560 his idea about drawing European culture 174 00:08:23,769 --> 00:08:20,000 you know he was talking about unbridled 175 00:08:27,429 --> 00:08:23,779 sexuality and if with the idea of 176 00:08:29,170 --> 00:08:27,439 basically the the family was something 177 00:08:32,500 --> 00:08:29,180 that wanted that they wanted to break 178 00:08:34,449 --> 00:08:32,510 apart you can go forward down into the 179 00:08:39,639 --> 00:08:34,459 Frankfurt School which was basically an 180 00:08:41,469 --> 00:08:39,649 iteration of Marx's ideas and you can 181 00:08:42,909 --> 00:08:41,479 then you know just come right you know 182 00:08:45,449 --> 00:08:42,919 straight forward from the Frankfurt 183 00:08:48,069 --> 00:08:45,459 School into the Macy conference 184 00:08:49,660 --> 00:08:48,079 basically many of the same individuals 185 00:08:53,199 --> 00:08:49,670 are moving back and forth but they're 186 00:08:55,689 --> 00:08:53,209 all having the same ideas and then you 187 00:08:58,960 --> 00:08:55,699 have MKULTRA which was you know a CIA 188 00:09:01,930 --> 00:08:58,970 project I wanted to mention that the CIA 189 00:09:03,490 --> 00:09:01,940 you know is not the problem the problem 190 00:09:05,740 --> 00:09:03,500 is is that there is some organization 191 00:09:09,519 --> 00:09:05,750 that basically controls government and 192 00:09:12,360 --> 00:09:09,529 what we see as agencies you know and 193 00:09:15,280 --> 00:09:12,370 think of them as the problem as those 194 00:09:16,660 --> 00:09:15,290 MKULTRA was a problem within the CIA or 195 00:09:18,850 --> 00:09:16,670 the CIA is a problem within the 196 00:09:20,920 --> 00:09:18,860 government this is just not the correct 197 00:09:24,040 --> 00:09:20,930 way to understand that the the problem 198 00:09:26,829 --> 00:09:24,050 is hold on that is such an important 199 00:09:28,780 --> 00:09:26,839 point and I really want to draw that out 200 00:09:33,100 --> 00:09:28,790 and talk about that because that point 201 00:09:35,829 --> 00:09:33,110 in and of itself requires a full hashing 202 00:09:37,000 --> 00:09:35,839 out and even before I get there though I 203 00:09:39,069 --> 00:09:37,010 do know you have a lot of really 204 00:09:41,019 --> 00:09:39,079 interesting points here I want to step 205 00:09:41,870 --> 00:09:41,029 back to the first thing you said because 206 00:09:44,300 --> 00:09:41,880 I 207 00:09:46,130 --> 00:09:44,310 ask this broad question you took us all 208 00:09:48,230 --> 00:09:46,140 the way back to Karl Marx and I think 209 00:09:49,970 --> 00:09:48,240 some people are probably going well wait 210 00:09:53,390 --> 00:09:49,980 a minute what is he even talking about 211 00:09:56,330 --> 00:09:53,400 so break down that first point of why 212 00:09:58,580 --> 00:09:56,340 would you want to destroy the family why 213 00:10:02,540 --> 00:09:58,590 would you want to debase culture why 214 00:10:04,580 --> 00:10:02,550 from a kind of Makaveli in somebody has 215 00:10:08,060 --> 00:10:04,590 to rule the world that might as well be 216 00:10:12,680 --> 00:10:08,070 me perspective why would they want to do 217 00:10:15,710 --> 00:10:12,690 that I would say it's because the groups 218 00:10:17,720 --> 00:10:15,720 have hatred toward European culture well 219 00:10:19,400 --> 00:10:17,730 let me throw out another reason where 220 00:10:20,930 --> 00:10:19,410 I'm fishing for an answer here so let me 221 00:10:23,540 --> 00:10:20,940 throw it out and then you can respond to 222 00:10:25,460 --> 00:10:23,550 it it's that yeah maybe that but the 223 00:10:28,400 --> 00:10:25,470 other thing is hey man it's about 224 00:10:31,070 --> 00:10:28,410 control and [\h__\h] so you can do your 225 00:10:33,440 --> 00:10:31,080 thing the way you wanted to be done you 226 00:10:36,170 --> 00:10:33,450 don't want people thinking freely you 227 00:10:38,570 --> 00:10:36,180 don't want people doing their own thing 228 00:10:40,820 --> 00:10:38,580 even you will sacrifice progress for 229 00:10:44,330 --> 00:10:40,830 control the first and foremost thing you 230 00:10:47,480 --> 00:10:44,340 want is control so anyway you can kind 231 00:10:50,870 --> 00:10:47,490 of leave people scrambling or unsure of 232 00:10:53,630 --> 00:10:50,880 these kind of things or just in a state 233 00:10:56,030 --> 00:10:53,640 of upset it really is good if you're 234 00:10:57,950 --> 00:10:56,040 into control what do you think about 235 00:11:00,590 --> 00:10:57,960 that in addition to what you're saying 236 00:11:02,900 --> 00:11:00,600 it well I mean no no that's well said 237 00:11:06,070 --> 00:11:02,910 and in quite correct I mean the idea is 238 00:11:08,360 --> 00:11:06,080 is basically atomized individuals 239 00:11:10,250 --> 00:11:08,370 individuals without social and ethnic 240 00:11:14,260 --> 00:11:10,260 connections are far easier to control 241 00:11:18,400 --> 00:11:14,270 they are incapable of rebellion and so 242 00:11:22,190 --> 00:11:18,410 if you look at you know what has been 243 00:11:24,320 --> 00:11:22,200 destroyed by the secret society in say 244 00:11:26,060 --> 00:11:24,330 the United States from then World War 245 00:11:28,820 --> 00:11:26,070 two to today I mean you start out with 246 00:11:32,510 --> 00:11:28,830 the ethnic communities particularly 247 00:11:37,100 --> 00:11:32,520 ethnic Catholic communities these were 248 00:11:40,220 --> 00:11:37,110 targeted and basically you know pushed 249 00:11:43,910 --> 00:11:40,230 out into the suburbia where they just 250 00:11:47,270 --> 00:11:43,920 became the vast white middle-class and 251 00:11:50,540 --> 00:11:47,280 then from there you began with sex drugs 252 00:11:53,980 --> 00:11:50,550 and rock and roll and you know culture 253 00:11:56,320 --> 00:11:53,990 started to atomize even further they 254 00:11:58,810 --> 00:11:56,330 basically promoted a kind of feminism 255 00:12:01,060 --> 00:11:58,820 Gloria Steinem was the CIA agent 256 00:12:03,010 --> 00:12:01,070 promoting a kind of feminism that would 257 00:12:05,380 --> 00:12:03,020 even you know atomized the family a step 258 00:12:09,010 --> 00:12:05,390 further the single mom with the welfare 259 00:12:11,590 --> 00:12:09,020 check became something that was seen as 260 00:12:14,880 --> 00:12:11,600 are given to the population as positive 261 00:12:17,560 --> 00:12:14,890 and then you know integration was also 262 00:12:21,160 --> 00:12:17,570 promoted again it's just the idea of the 263 00:12:23,620 --> 00:12:21,170 the more atomized that an individual is 264 00:12:26,829 --> 00:12:23,630 the the easier it is for the oligarchs 265 00:12:28,990 --> 00:12:26,839 to control so atomized and homogenized 266 00:12:32,050 --> 00:12:29,000 at the same time to just make you feel 267 00:12:34,690 --> 00:12:32,060 isolated and alone and like you said 268 00:12:36,579 --> 00:12:34,700 what you how are you going to rebel when 269 00:12:39,040 --> 00:12:36,589 you feel you're an island when you feel 270 00:12:42,490 --> 00:12:39,050 you don't have any strong group to bond 271 00:12:45,760 --> 00:12:42,500 to and say okay let's go attack the 272 00:12:46,900 --> 00:12:45,770 castle exactly that's that's so you 273 00:12:49,030 --> 00:12:46,910 couldn't I couldn't say any better I 274 00:12:52,120 --> 00:12:49,040 mean that's exactly what they had in 275 00:12:55,420 --> 00:12:52,130 mind and that's exactly what they did 276 00:12:57,670 --> 00:12:55,430 you can see in their creation of the sex 277 00:13:03,070 --> 00:12:57,680 drugs and rock and roll culture you know 278 00:13:06,310 --> 00:13:03,080 a kind of a desire to use eros you know 279 00:13:08,949 --> 00:13:06,320 the pleasure principle so-called to lure 280 00:13:10,870 --> 00:13:08,959 people away from the the cultural 281 00:13:12,820 --> 00:13:10,880 connections that could create an 282 00:13:15,640 --> 00:13:12,830 organization that could could that could 283 00:13:19,780 --> 00:13:15,650 basically contest the power of the 284 00:13:22,600 --> 00:13:19,790 oligarchs so basically we have been the 285 00:13:25,900 --> 00:13:22,610 victim of weaponized anthropology 286 00:13:29,410 --> 00:13:25,910 weaponized psychology if you look at the 287 00:13:31,480 --> 00:13:29,420 groups that really you know have the you 288 00:13:33,180 --> 00:13:31,490 know the focus of evil I mean inside 289 00:13:35,710 --> 00:13:33,190 them when you see you don't just so many 290 00:13:39,030 --> 00:13:35,720 psychologists an interesting thing for 291 00:13:43,240 --> 00:13:39,040 people to do is there's a video called 292 00:13:46,300 --> 00:13:43,250 conversation about LSD and you know it's 293 00:13:48,370 --> 00:13:46,310 on YouTube and these are individuals 294 00:13:51,190 --> 00:13:48,380 that were involved in the MKULTRA 295 00:13:53,940 --> 00:13:51,200 project and you can see that the number 296 00:13:56,949 --> 00:13:53,950 of psychologists anthropologists 297 00:13:59,800 --> 00:13:56,959 psychiatrists I mean it's just a it's a 298 00:14:03,130 --> 00:13:59,810 collection of intellectual technique 299 00:14:05,470 --> 00:14:03,140 that's all been brought together for 300 00:14:07,689 --> 00:14:05,480 evil let me stop you there Joe because 301 00:14:11,679 --> 00:14:07,699 you've done some 302 00:14:14,559 --> 00:14:11,689 really important digging on MKULTRA and 303 00:14:16,629 --> 00:14:14,569 more importantly as you so often do 304 00:14:19,179 --> 00:14:16,639 you've taken some of the pieces that 305 00:14:21,939 --> 00:14:19,189 were always lying out there for everyone 306 00:14:25,509 --> 00:14:21,949 to see and kind of put them together in 307 00:14:27,849 --> 00:14:25,519 a new and interesting important way and 308 00:14:29,799 --> 00:14:27,859 I want to get to that I just want to 309 00:14:31,749 --> 00:14:29,809 hold off one minute because as I 310 00:14:34,809 --> 00:14:31,759 promised I want to return to a point 311 00:14:37,780 --> 00:14:34,819 that you made in ever since you've said 312 00:14:40,030 --> 00:14:37,790 it it has kind of continued to ring in 313 00:14:42,819 --> 00:14:40,040 my ears so I want to draw it out and 314 00:14:48,099 --> 00:14:42,829 this is the point about the fact that 315 00:14:51,249 --> 00:14:48,109 the CIA is not the CIA as we understand 316 00:14:55,329 --> 00:14:51,259 it in common culture is any important 317 00:14:57,549 --> 00:14:55,339 point that is never drawn out but as you 318 00:14:59,710 --> 00:14:57,559 give some examples it's really 319 00:15:02,470 --> 00:14:59,720 self-evident when you look at some of 320 00:15:05,470 --> 00:15:02,480 these things and you say well gee that 321 00:15:07,900 --> 00:15:05,480 that really isn't a governmental agency 322 00:15:10,720 --> 00:15:07,910 that it really is in a group that is in 323 00:15:13,659 --> 00:15:10,730 there under any oversight or control and 324 00:15:16,720 --> 00:15:13,669 even there their mission seems to be 325 00:15:20,109 --> 00:15:16,730 somewhat bigger there's something above 326 00:15:22,989 --> 00:15:20,119 that that I'm not aware of and yet I'm 327 00:15:25,960 --> 00:15:22,999 being told over and over again oh that's 328 00:15:29,590 --> 00:15:25,970 the CIA that's the CIA walk us through 329 00:15:34,269 --> 00:15:29,600 how we know there's something above the 330 00:15:36,929 --> 00:15:34,279 CIA well first of all if you just look 331 00:15:40,119 --> 00:15:36,939 at the heads of the CIA you know as the 332 00:15:44,319 --> 00:15:40,129 organization you know came to our 333 00:15:47,949 --> 00:15:44,329 culture I mean Donovan Dulles Helms 334 00:15:51,579 --> 00:15:47,959 these are all investment bankers lawyers 335 00:15:54,189 --> 00:15:51,589 and the idea that these would be the 336 00:15:56,979 --> 00:15:54,199 head of a international intelligence 337 00:15:59,499 --> 00:15:56,989 gathering organization just on its face 338 00:16:02,349 --> 00:15:59,509 is preposterous I mean you would think 339 00:16:05,409 --> 00:16:02,359 that this is more an organization 340 00:16:08,679 --> 00:16:05,419 created by banking families if you look 341 00:16:11,889 --> 00:16:08,689 at the precursor of the CIA you have the 342 00:16:14,109 --> 00:16:11,899 OSS and then look in the you know 343 00:16:15,759 --> 00:16:14,119 organizational charts of OSS in Europe 344 00:16:18,850 --> 00:16:15,769 it's all the Mellon family the Mellon 345 00:16:21,079 --> 00:16:18,860 banking family and so you you have right 346 00:16:23,569 --> 00:16:21,089 on on its face you have some 347 00:16:25,100 --> 00:16:23,579 bizarre connection into banking families 348 00:16:26,780 --> 00:16:25,110 and and something with just both the 349 00:16:31,460 --> 00:16:26,790 military intelligence and then you come 350 00:16:33,559 --> 00:16:31,470 forward a few years and you have the 351 00:16:36,949 --> 00:16:33,569 MKULTRA employment of someone named 352 00:16:39,139 --> 00:16:36,959 Gordon Watson and Watson is a person who 353 00:16:41,569 --> 00:16:39,149 really begins a psychedelic movement in 354 00:16:44,809 --> 00:16:41,579 the United States and what is his 355 00:16:48,799 --> 00:16:44,819 background well he is a partner in JP 356 00:16:50,900 --> 00:16:48,809 Morgan and so this really isn't you know 357 00:16:54,860 --> 00:16:50,910 something that could possibly be 358 00:16:56,689 --> 00:16:54,870 circumstantial it's it's you know just 359 00:16:58,730 --> 00:16:56,699 be statistically crazy and then of 360 00:17:01,129 --> 00:16:58,740 course when you look at if you go out 361 00:17:03,019 --> 00:17:01,139 just a few individuals you'll see that 362 00:17:06,769 --> 00:17:03,029 the melon family returns you know Billy 363 00:17:08,929 --> 00:17:06,779 Hitchcock melon is in Mill Brook mansion 364 00:17:11,090 --> 00:17:08,939 is where Tim Larry's living and then 365 00:17:14,389 --> 00:17:11,100 they're funding the Grateful Dead and so 366 00:17:16,250 --> 00:17:14,399 you can see that basically the the 367 00:17:19,669 --> 00:17:16,260 banking families have had this 368 00:17:21,769 --> 00:17:19,679 tremendous impact on what's supposed to 369 00:17:23,480 --> 00:17:21,779 be military intelligence supposed to be 370 00:17:26,240 --> 00:17:23,490 something as in under the control of 371 00:17:28,580 --> 00:17:26,250 democracy and then if you if you just 372 00:17:31,250 --> 00:17:28,590 you know again just take a step back you 373 00:17:33,230 --> 00:17:31,260 can see secret societies you see 374 00:17:38,990 --> 00:17:33,240 individuals or members of the Bohemian 375 00:17:40,789 --> 00:17:39,000 Grove Freemasonry and other secret 376 00:17:43,340 --> 00:17:40,799 societies or military intelligence I 377 00:17:46,450 --> 00:17:43,350 mean I one thing that really basically 378 00:17:49,549 --> 00:17:46,460 got me kind of moving down this path was 379 00:17:51,889 --> 00:17:49,559 when I started looking at MKULTRA and 380 00:17:54,620 --> 00:17:51,899 saw it was you know headquartered in 381 00:17:57,019 --> 00:17:54,630 Palo Alto and I saw the relationship 382 00:18:00,620 --> 00:17:57,029 between it and the counterculture 383 00:18:02,930 --> 00:18:00,630 I noticed that there had been a car 384 00:18:05,690 --> 00:18:02,940 accident right outside the Palo Alto 385 00:18:07,519 --> 00:18:05,700 Hospital that basically the MKULTRA 386 00:18:08,930 --> 00:18:07,529 employment was going on for Robert 387 00:18:11,360 --> 00:18:08,940 hunter member of the Grateful Dead and 388 00:18:13,669 --> 00:18:11,370 Ken Kesey you know the individual 389 00:18:16,070 --> 00:18:13,679 created the acid test and in the car 390 00:18:18,260 --> 00:18:16,080 accident a police report was created and 391 00:18:21,289 --> 00:18:18,270 you have Robert hunter and Jerry Garcia 392 00:18:23,630 --> 00:18:21,299 now this makes sense because you know 393 00:18:25,820 --> 00:18:23,640 they in my opinion are fully inside the 394 00:18:27,169 --> 00:18:25,830 deal and they're helping to bring about 395 00:18:29,870 --> 00:18:27,179 these sex drugs and rock'n'roll 396 00:18:34,580 --> 00:18:29,880 counterculture but the other individual 397 00:18:35,180 --> 00:18:34,590 in the car is so significant it was Eric 398 00:18:39,860 --> 00:18:35,190 Tris 399 00:18:41,780 --> 00:18:39,870 and Eric is the son of Alan tryst the 400 00:18:44,630 --> 00:18:41,790 founder of the Tavistock Institute and 401 00:18:49,280 --> 00:18:44,640 the Tavistock was basically just the 402 00:18:50,690 --> 00:18:49,290 British half of sort of the MKULTRA you 403 00:18:52,610 --> 00:18:50,700 know kind of operation I mean 404 00:18:54,650 --> 00:18:52,620 individuals pass back and forth between 405 00:18:56,510 --> 00:18:54,660 the organization's and and of course 406 00:18:59,270 --> 00:18:56,520 there's just no reason at all that such 407 00:19:01,880 --> 00:18:59,280 an individual would be with you know 408 00:19:05,570 --> 00:19:01,890 this group as they're leaving and of the 409 00:19:09,590 --> 00:19:05,580 hospital where these the CM Caltrain you 410 00:19:10,820 --> 00:19:09,600 know LSD it training is going on and so 411 00:19:16,390 --> 00:19:10,830 it just gives you a very clear picture 412 00:19:19,630 --> 00:19:16,400 that you know but that what we think are 413 00:19:23,000 --> 00:19:19,640 democratically controlled institutions 414 00:19:24,590 --> 00:19:23,010 basically have hidden agendas and that 415 00:19:27,050 --> 00:19:24,600 the science that that they're developing 416 00:19:30,350 --> 00:19:27,060 which we think is supposed to be either 417 00:19:32,740 --> 00:19:30,360 defending us against spy crafts from the 418 00:19:34,930 --> 00:19:32,750 Russians or whatever is actually 419 00:19:37,820 --> 00:19:34,940 technology that they're developing to 420 00:19:42,350 --> 00:19:37,830 enslave the population to create a kind 421 00:19:46,150 --> 00:19:42,360 of mental domination by controlling our 422 00:19:48,710 --> 00:19:46,160 history by controlling our culture and 423 00:19:52,820 --> 00:19:48,720 unfortunately I'm afraid it ends up with 424 00:19:56,240 --> 00:19:52,830 a massive reduction in population this 425 00:19:58,250 --> 00:19:56,250 doesn't you know lead to a pacific slave 426 00:20:00,080 --> 00:19:58,260 state I mean they basically exterminate 427 00:20:02,870 --> 00:20:00,090 the people they want off the planet and 428 00:20:04,700 --> 00:20:02,880 and then they have one you know that's 429 00:20:08,990 --> 00:20:04,710 interesting the last part of it is 430 00:20:11,260 --> 00:20:09,000 pretty controversial I don't know how 431 00:20:14,690 --> 00:20:11,270 much of that last part I buy into but 432 00:20:16,520 --> 00:20:14,700 again and in typical kind of Jo hat will 433 00:20:18,500 --> 00:20:16,530 fash it there's a couple of points in 434 00:20:21,230 --> 00:20:18,510 there that are just incredibly 435 00:20:22,960 --> 00:20:21,240 insightful in an important way and I 436 00:20:25,130 --> 00:20:22,970 want to connect it to a skeptic oh 437 00:20:26,720 --> 00:20:25,140 interview that I did people might 438 00:20:30,350 --> 00:20:26,730 remember a few months ago I interviewed 439 00:20:32,600 --> 00:20:30,360 this guy doctor EDA who was the head of 440 00:20:35,810 --> 00:20:32,610 research at the Stanford Research 441 00:20:37,940 --> 00:20:35,820 Institute Stargate program which if 442 00:20:41,030 --> 00:20:37,950 anyone has really investigated this 443 00:20:44,630 --> 00:20:41,040 again to your point you know Stargate is 444 00:20:48,530 --> 00:20:44,640 off doing remote viewing and psychic 445 00:20:53,210 --> 00:20:48,540 spying the mission really was to counter 446 00:20:56,450 --> 00:20:53,220 a Russian initiative at psychic use and 447 00:20:59,330 --> 00:20:56,460 psychic spying and to psychically 448 00:21:01,820 --> 00:20:59,340 influence leaders in the United States 449 00:21:04,760 --> 00:21:01,830 this has been discovered and disclosed 450 00:21:06,640 --> 00:21:04,770 after the fall of the Soviet Union we 451 00:21:10,010 --> 00:21:06,650 have exposure to some of those documents 452 00:21:12,320 --> 00:21:10,020 but and here's how all this stuff gets 453 00:21:14,150 --> 00:21:12,330 really really complicated and it has to 454 00:21:18,590 --> 00:21:14,160 be fully examined in the way that you 455 00:21:21,110 --> 00:21:18,600 were doing it so that sounds like CIA 456 00:21:24,740 --> 00:21:21,120 work and it was I mean the Stargate 457 00:21:29,060 --> 00:21:24,750 project was military intelligence funded 458 00:21:30,830 --> 00:21:29,070 it was also a part of MKULTRA that's 459 00:21:33,530 --> 00:21:30,840 really important what you're saying 460 00:21:37,100 --> 00:21:33,540 there Joe it's a part of this larger 461 00:21:39,350 --> 00:21:37,110 mission involving mind control and 462 00:21:42,020 --> 00:21:39,360 control the population that we don't 463 00:21:44,630 --> 00:21:42,030 like to talk about here's what I think 464 00:21:48,790 --> 00:21:44,640 was significant about my interview with 465 00:21:52,420 --> 00:21:48,800 Ed May he comes across as a good soldier 466 00:21:55,310 --> 00:21:52,430 he has a very limited worldview that 467 00:21:59,300 --> 00:21:55,320 doesn't allow him to even understand 468 00:22:03,170 --> 00:21:59,310 fully the research that he was doing let 469 00:22:06,050 --> 00:22:03,180 alone the larger way that that fits into 470 00:22:07,970 --> 00:22:06,060 the equation but then again isn't that 471 00:22:11,600 --> 00:22:07,980 the kind of guy you want in that 472 00:22:14,360 --> 00:22:11,610 position but the point I wanted to kind 473 00:22:16,250 --> 00:22:14,370 of draw out because I think it amplifies 474 00:22:20,570 --> 00:22:16,260 in a way but further complicates your 475 00:22:23,990 --> 00:22:20,580 point is he talks about some very real 476 00:22:26,480 --> 00:22:24,000 stories from his worldview about going 477 00:22:29,300 --> 00:22:26,490 to Congress meeting with congressmen 478 00:22:34,280 --> 00:22:29,310 trying to get funding for Stargate the 479 00:22:36,980 --> 00:22:34,290 battle for ongoing support among people 480 00:22:38,600 --> 00:22:36,990 who had to respond to constituents who 481 00:22:40,670 --> 00:22:38,610 said I think what you're doing is 482 00:22:43,370 --> 00:22:40,680 satanic it goes against my religious 483 00:22:46,390 --> 00:22:43,380 views and all the rest of that and what 484 00:22:51,050 --> 00:22:46,400 I took out of that is that you can 485 00:22:53,500 --> 00:22:51,060 understand why there's a meta CIA why 486 00:22:56,450 --> 00:22:53,510 there's a control level above that 487 00:22:58,460 --> 00:22:56,460 because on another and I'm not saying I 488 00:22:59,680 --> 00:22:58,470 buy into this totally but from a very 489 00:23:02,050 --> 00:22:59,690 practical sense 490 00:23:04,840 --> 00:23:02,060 somebody has to rule the world 491 00:23:07,950 --> 00:23:04,850 you know you can't you here's a real 492 00:23:12,400 --> 00:23:07,960 threat that we have to respond to and 493 00:23:14,920 --> 00:23:12,410 you can't go to Congress and say this is 494 00:23:17,200 --> 00:23:14,930 a real real threat in terms of psychic 495 00:23:20,560 --> 00:23:17,210 spying we need to do something you just 496 00:23:23,320 --> 00:23:20,570 can't get that stuff funded so even 497 00:23:26,110 --> 00:23:23,330 though I think EDA fits the useful idiot 498 00:23:29,980 --> 00:23:26,120 role to a certain extent there's also a 499 00:23:32,830 --> 00:23:29,990 realness to what it takes to run a 500 00:23:37,330 --> 00:23:32,840 superpower and to run an intelligence 501 00:23:39,580 --> 00:23:37,340 organization that is complicated tell me 502 00:23:41,710 --> 00:23:39,590 what you think about all that I think 503 00:23:45,460 --> 00:23:41,720 that's a logical principle that if you 504 00:23:49,240 --> 00:23:45,470 you know carry it to an extreme creates 505 00:23:53,110 --> 00:23:49,250 basically a situation where the 506 00:23:54,550 --> 00:23:53,120 oligarchs can justify anything and it 507 00:23:56,470 --> 00:23:54,560 creates the situation that we find 508 00:23:58,870 --> 00:23:56,480 ourselves in doesn't it which is exactly 509 00:24:02,650 --> 00:23:58,880 right and so you know I would just say 510 00:24:03,700 --> 00:24:02,660 that I don't buy the guys story I doubt 511 00:24:05,560 --> 00:24:03,710 it very much 512 00:24:08,620 --> 00:24:05,570 I'm I don't think he would be that 513 00:24:09,940 --> 00:24:08,630 stupid I think you have to listen to the 514 00:24:12,010 --> 00:24:09,950 interview yeah I haven't heard it but 515 00:24:17,320 --> 00:24:12,020 I'm just on his face I don't like it 516 00:24:20,860 --> 00:24:17,330 because the Sr I was fully exposed as 517 00:24:23,140 --> 00:24:20,870 doing you know brain experiments which 518 00:24:24,900 --> 00:24:23,150 are against the law which would damage 519 00:24:31,920 --> 00:24:24,910 the individuals they were doing 520 00:24:36,850 --> 00:24:33,750 experimentation was going to take place 521 00:24:38,350 --> 00:24:36,860 when when this was found out and this 522 00:24:40,000 --> 00:24:38,360 was one of the one of the things that 523 00:24:43,270 --> 00:24:40,010 actually led up to the church commission 524 00:24:46,270 --> 00:24:43,280 when this was found out some guy in the 525 00:24:49,420 --> 00:24:46,280 Navy I forget his name but he demanded 526 00:24:53,050 --> 00:24:49,430 that the same stop because knew his name 527 00:24:55,420 --> 00:24:53,060 was Coast love Coast law he was some you 528 00:24:57,280 --> 00:24:55,430 know muck amuck in the Navy I think he 529 00:24:58,900 --> 00:24:57,290 was like the secretary of the Navy and 530 00:25:02,560 --> 00:24:58,910 he said what the hell's going on you got 531 00:25:05,980 --> 00:25:02,570 to stop this thing the SR I blew him off 532 00:25:07,930 --> 00:25:05,990 they didn't bother to stop and then then 533 00:25:10,900 --> 00:25:07,940 they were able to get money funded 534 00:25:13,030 --> 00:25:10,910 through another source in the Navy the 535 00:25:15,500 --> 00:25:13,040 Navy itself was going against the 536 00:25:17,150 --> 00:25:15,510 secretary and funded the SR I 537 00:25:19,540 --> 00:25:17,160 for another hundred grand so they could 538 00:25:21,860 --> 00:25:19,550 continue with something that basically 539 00:25:23,870 --> 00:25:21,870 every one of the individuals involved 540 00:25:26,180 --> 00:25:23,880 with should be brought in front of a 541 00:25:29,810 --> 00:25:26,190 trial kind of a Nuremberg type trial and 542 00:25:31,280 --> 00:25:29,820 and incarcerated so so this is and and 543 00:25:34,100 --> 00:25:31,290 bear in mind that what they're trying to 544 00:25:37,490 --> 00:25:34,110 do with with this kind of a low 545 00:25:39,020 --> 00:25:37,500 frequency wave study is they're trying 546 00:25:41,870 --> 00:25:39,030 to learn how to control people like 547 00:25:45,950 --> 00:25:41,880 robots this is what they're trying to do 548 00:25:49,460 --> 00:25:45,960 Alex so I'm sorry I just you know this 549 00:25:51,470 --> 00:25:49,470 guy may just be an absolute kind of my 550 00:25:54,170 --> 00:25:51,480 optic individual who can't see what's 551 00:25:56,000 --> 00:25:54,180 going on but you know I'm just gonna err 552 00:25:59,120 --> 00:25:56,010 on the side of caution and I'm just 553 00:26:02,060 --> 00:25:59,130 gonna say look you have to assume that 554 00:26:05,030 --> 00:26:02,070 they're all dirty and you have to assume 555 00:26:07,940 --> 00:26:05,040 that every single experiment that these 556 00:26:09,700 --> 00:26:07,950 guys are doing is either overtly dirty 557 00:26:12,770 --> 00:26:09,710 it's just done for the purpose of 558 00:26:15,020 --> 00:26:12,780 enslaving the population or it's 559 00:26:19,180 --> 00:26:15,030 something that in general could be used 560 00:26:22,460 --> 00:26:19,190 in some way for this project so you know 561 00:26:24,380 --> 00:26:22,470 unless proven otherwise I think we're 562 00:26:25,670 --> 00:26:24,390 really wise to err on the side of 563 00:26:27,500 --> 00:26:25,680 caution and I'm just gonna remind 564 00:26:30,380 --> 00:26:27,510 something now just because I know that 565 00:26:34,610 --> 00:26:30,390 you know this is this is something that 566 00:26:38,510 --> 00:26:34,620 dumb creates a kind of clear line of fur 567 00:26:40,610 --> 00:26:38,520 for analysis and that is 9/11 now if you 568 00:26:43,100 --> 00:26:40,620 believe that you know the building's can 569 00:26:45,470 --> 00:26:43,110 fall straight down at freefall speed and 570 00:26:47,330 --> 00:26:45,480 and you know that the the guy was able 571 00:26:51,050 --> 00:26:47,340 to fly the plane and hit the Pentagon 572 00:26:55,310 --> 00:26:51,060 with no debris okay god bless you just 573 00:26:59,000 --> 00:26:55,320 go your way those of us who see these 574 00:27:00,620 --> 00:26:59,010 events as self-evident right that this 575 00:27:02,810 --> 00:27:00,630 was simply an operation by the 576 00:27:05,960 --> 00:27:02,820 government then we have to understand 577 00:27:09,290 --> 00:27:05,970 that we are living in the world that has 578 00:27:12,080 --> 00:27:09,300 been created by the MKULTRA science and 579 00:27:14,480 --> 00:27:12,090 technology right MKULTRA didn't 580 00:27:17,600 --> 00:27:14,490 disappear when the Church Commission 581 00:27:20,180 --> 00:27:17,610 asked to have all of the documents helm 582 00:27:21,590 --> 00:27:20,190 said you know what I destroyed them and 583 00:27:25,130 --> 00:27:21,600 they said why because I didn't want to 584 00:27:26,960 --> 00:27:25,140 embarrass my friends right so so this 585 00:27:28,780 --> 00:27:26,970 and then he continued on as head of the 586 00:27:33,190 --> 00:27:28,790 CIA so you can see that tomorrow 587 00:27:36,520 --> 00:27:33,200 Percy is just a facade that the overall 588 00:27:40,360 --> 00:27:36,530 project of mind control has continued 589 00:27:43,750 --> 00:27:40,370 unabated and we are now suffering as you 590 00:27:47,590 --> 00:27:43,760 know as of as a nation underneath its 591 00:27:49,990 --> 00:27:47,600 Bootheel so when when you know we talked 592 00:27:53,520 --> 00:27:50,000 about well could there be some 593 00:27:55,890 --> 00:27:53,530 justification based on you know the a 594 00:27:59,800 --> 00:27:55,900 technological arms waste with Russia 595 00:28:03,130 --> 00:27:59,810 it's irrelevant to me Alex I don't care 596 00:28:05,830 --> 00:28:03,140 sure who cares what is important is that 597 00:28:09,280 --> 00:28:05,840 the organization has never been brought 598 00:28:11,920 --> 00:28:09,290 to sunlight and it's it's when people 599 00:28:14,710 --> 00:28:11,930 ask me about well what about the you 600 00:28:17,470 --> 00:28:14,720 know the spiritual potentiality of 601 00:28:20,710 --> 00:28:17,480 psychedelic drugs I just say look that 602 00:28:22,810 --> 00:28:20,720 isn't on the table what is on the table 603 00:28:26,080 --> 00:28:22,820 is that there is an organization that 604 00:28:30,900 --> 00:28:26,090 has been using these things against us 605 00:28:34,090 --> 00:28:30,910 and until until that has been brought 606 00:28:36,550 --> 00:28:34,100 completely to sunlight then all of these 607 00:28:38,410 --> 00:28:36,560 attributes that have come out of their 608 00:28:41,800 --> 00:28:38,420 manipulation of culture have to be 609 00:28:45,400 --> 00:28:41,810 stopped I mean we just has to stop right 610 00:28:47,920 --> 00:28:45,410 now freeze in our tracks and we have to 611 00:28:50,320 --> 00:28:47,930 do the investigation of what is inside 612 00:28:52,060 --> 00:28:50,330 the government and then we can make 613 00:28:54,520 --> 00:28:52,070 decisions about what is this a good 614 00:28:56,440 --> 00:28:54,530 cultural idea or is there something to 615 00:29:00,760 --> 00:28:56,450 worry about from Russia or the Chinese 616 00:29:02,920 --> 00:29:00,770 but right now the problem is inside the 617 00:29:05,170 --> 00:29:02,930 government it's what controls it that's 618 00:29:07,630 --> 00:29:05,180 what we've got to focus on we can get to 619 00:29:10,480 --> 00:29:07,640 all these other issues later I'm not 620 00:29:12,520 --> 00:29:10,490 opposed to any you know these ideas I'm 621 00:29:13,990 --> 00:29:12,530 just saying that it's not really 622 00:29:15,910 --> 00:29:14,000 something that we need to deal with 623 00:29:18,070 --> 00:29:15,920 immediately what we got to do right now 624 00:29:21,430 --> 00:29:18,080 is we've got to focus on what's 625 00:29:24,940 --> 00:29:21,440 controlling our government you know 626 00:29:27,130 --> 00:29:24,950 there's so many amazing points there I 627 00:29:31,000 --> 00:29:27,140 want to tell people that we're recording 628 00:29:33,580 --> 00:29:31,010 this on nine twelve the day after nine 629 00:29:36,070 --> 00:29:33,590 eleven is interesting I think what you 630 00:29:38,530 --> 00:29:36,080 just said about nine eleven is so 631 00:29:40,990 --> 00:29:38,540 beautifully put I wish I could just pull 632 00:29:42,610 --> 00:29:41,000 that out and play that for people over 633 00:29:46,360 --> 00:29:42,620 and over again because it does 634 00:29:48,010 --> 00:29:46,370 get hard to talk about 9/11 and I've 635 00:29:51,270 --> 00:29:48,020 mentioned my wife a couple of times she 636 00:29:54,310 --> 00:29:51,280 always kind of takes has to take this 637 00:29:58,990 --> 00:29:54,320 the role that she plays which is you 638 00:30:01,750 --> 00:29:59,000 know MPR listening a verse to any kind 639 00:30:05,110 --> 00:30:01,760 of conspiracy and you know she said 640 00:30:07,660 --> 00:30:05,120 yesterday gee you know I mean I really 641 00:30:09,400 --> 00:30:07,670 feel for the whole 9/11 thing and all 642 00:30:12,220 --> 00:30:09,410 the people that died but oh my god 643 00:30:18,460 --> 00:30:12,230 aren't we over that and I was like you 644 00:30:21,220 --> 00:30:18,470 know if you understand 9/11 as a guy in 645 00:30:23,680 --> 00:30:21,230 a cave who flew a couple of planes into 646 00:30:26,440 --> 00:30:23,690 some buildings yeah 647 00:30:29,740 --> 00:30:26,450 we really should be over it but if you 648 00:30:35,590 --> 00:30:29,750 understand it for what it really is what 649 00:30:37,690 --> 00:30:35,600 it as you said plainly is then we should 650 00:30:41,200 --> 00:30:37,700 never be over it because we can never 651 00:30:42,640 --> 00:30:41,210 even take as you beautifully said we 652 00:30:46,840 --> 00:30:42,650 cannot go forward 653 00:30:49,210 --> 00:30:46,850 until we resolve that so you know we're 654 00:30:51,370 --> 00:30:49,220 gonna go on in this dialogue and we're 655 00:30:53,169 --> 00:30:51,380 gonna leave 9/11 behind because that's 656 00:30:56,710 --> 00:30:53,179 not what we're here to talk about but I 657 00:31:00,130 --> 00:30:56,720 think you are spot-on to bring that up 658 00:31:02,049 --> 00:31:00,140 and bring that center stage because we 659 00:31:04,870 --> 00:31:02,059 can bounce around and talk about a 660 00:31:07,480 --> 00:31:04,880 million other things when we're not 661 00:31:12,010 --> 00:31:07,490 putting first things first which is you 662 00:31:14,590 --> 00:31:12,020 know hey 9/11 was an inside job okay so 663 00:31:15,880 --> 00:31:14,600 from there we can we can't go forward 664 00:31:17,799 --> 00:31:15,890 when you talk about anything else but 665 00:31:20,380 --> 00:31:17,809 doesn't inside yeah let's be clear about 666 00:31:23,080 --> 00:31:20,390 that okay so let's get back to talking 667 00:31:28,299 --> 00:31:23,090 about psychedelics because you made 668 00:31:30,730 --> 00:31:28,309 again your case very very well I have to 669 00:31:32,110 --> 00:31:30,740 say but I want to step back in history 670 00:31:35,350 --> 00:31:32,120 and I want you to build that case a 671 00:31:37,090 --> 00:31:35,360 little bit the last time we talked this 672 00:31:39,850 --> 00:31:37,100 isn't in the interview but maybe I'll 673 00:31:41,440 --> 00:31:39,860 include some clips in for people we 674 00:31:45,220 --> 00:31:41,450 talked about Gordon Watson 675 00:31:49,150 --> 00:31:45,230 we talked about Andre Padraic people 676 00:31:51,700 --> 00:31:49,160 that you as a literary analyst like to 677 00:31:55,270 --> 00:31:51,710 bring to the stage and show their role 678 00:31:56,260 --> 00:31:55,280 let's talk about Gordon Watson who was 679 00:31:58,990 --> 00:31:56,270 he what 680 00:32:03,570 --> 00:31:59,000 does he play why do we think this is an 681 00:32:05,500 --> 00:32:03,580 actor rather than a real individual 682 00:32:07,320 --> 00:32:05,510 Wasson was the guy who brought 683 00:32:11,440 --> 00:32:07,330 psychedelic drugs to American culture 684 00:32:13,840 --> 00:32:11,450 there was an article May 1957 that 685 00:32:16,060 --> 00:32:13,850 described his journey into the Mexican 686 00:32:17,470 --> 00:32:16,070 desert in Life magazine which people 687 00:32:20,020 --> 00:32:17,480 won't remember but I mean this is like 688 00:32:22,210 --> 00:32:20,030 you know this is it you're in Life 689 00:32:24,370 --> 00:32:22,220 magazine that's it right yeah I was the 690 00:32:25,900 --> 00:32:24,380 most powerful and best widely most 691 00:32:29,410 --> 00:32:25,910 widely read magazine the United States 692 00:32:36,100 --> 00:32:29,420 it was owned by Henry Luce skullenbones 693 00:32:38,560 --> 00:32:36,110 secret society guy and Wasson was you 694 00:32:41,950 --> 00:32:38,570 know he was unemployed well he was a 695 00:32:45,340 --> 00:32:41,960 partner in JP Morgan he was very very 696 00:32:48,610 --> 00:32:45,350 high up inside the secret society he was 697 00:32:50,350 --> 00:32:48,620 actually a chairman of the meetings of 698 00:32:52,870 --> 00:32:50,360 the Council of Foreign Relations and 699 00:32:55,180 --> 00:32:52,880 this is just critically important 700 00:32:57,310 --> 00:32:55,190 because say that again so people don't 701 00:32:58,630 --> 00:32:57,320 lose sight of that because the way he's 702 00:33:01,090 --> 00:32:58,640 portrayed and I will at this point 703 00:33:05,169 --> 00:33:01,100 probably interject or 704 00:33:08,490 --> 00:33:05,179 splice in that clip where he's he's on a 705 00:33:11,650 --> 00:33:08,500 TV show being portrayed as just this 706 00:33:14,610 --> 00:33:11,660 adventure indiana jones independent guy 707 00:33:17,380 --> 00:33:14,620 down there in the jungles looking at 708 00:33:18,370 --> 00:33:17,390 psychedelics and then counsel on Foreign 709 00:33:20,950 --> 00:33:18,380 Relations 710 00:33:23,530 --> 00:33:20,960 yeah right doesn't make much sense does 711 00:33:26,160 --> 00:33:23,540 it well particularly that he would be 712 00:33:31,510 --> 00:33:26,170 the chairman these were documents that 713 00:33:33,610 --> 00:33:31,520 were unearthed by John Irvin and they 714 00:33:36,040 --> 00:33:33,620 are you know just transparent they 715 00:33:37,960 --> 00:33:36,050 because they are there they basically 716 00:33:39,400 --> 00:33:37,970 see if our documents and they list the 717 00:33:41,200 --> 00:33:39,410 individuals in the room during the 718 00:33:43,930 --> 00:33:41,210 meeting and they also list basically the 719 00:33:44,530 --> 00:33:43,940 chairmen of the organization Gordon 720 00:33:47,680 --> 00:33:44,540 Wasson 721 00:33:49,990 --> 00:33:47,690 so you know if you know the background 722 00:33:53,380 --> 00:33:50,000 of the CFR you know that it is basically 723 00:33:55,419 --> 00:33:53,390 the Union between the bank's military 724 00:33:59,160 --> 00:33:55,429 intelligence and you know political 725 00:34:02,290 --> 00:33:59,170 power it's a secret society to this day 726 00:34:05,620 --> 00:34:02,300 presidents and presidents - that want to 727 00:34:09,040 --> 00:34:05,630 be reference the Council on Foreign 728 00:34:10,089 --> 00:34:09,050 Relations in hushed tones I mean you can 729 00:34:11,739 --> 00:34:10,099 go listen 730 00:34:14,739 --> 00:34:11,749 to Hillary Clinton and she says oh you 731 00:34:16,960 --> 00:34:14,749 know the CFR I get my daily marching 732 00:34:19,059 --> 00:34:16,970 orders and they've been so outed that I 733 00:34:22,690 --> 00:34:19,069 think the power is shift to some other 734 00:34:26,200 --> 00:34:22,700 secret groups but man anyone who has any 735 00:34:28,659 --> 00:34:26,210 doubts I mean the CFR was it in terms of 736 00:34:30,700 --> 00:34:28,669 where you went for power sure and it's 737 00:34:32,229 --> 00:34:30,710 good to kind of note the sort of the 738 00:34:34,149 --> 00:34:32,239 secret organizations that are in 739 00:34:36,999 --> 00:34:34,159 bacchanal process so you've got Skull 740 00:34:38,619 --> 00:34:37,009 and Bones owning Life magazine the 741 00:34:44,499 --> 00:34:38,629 chairman of the Council on Foreign 742 00:34:46,299 --> 00:34:44,509 Relations going down to Mexico and then 743 00:34:49,690 --> 00:34:46,309 saying you know he had this spiritual 744 00:34:52,389 --> 00:34:49,700 and very positive experience which then 745 00:34:56,579 --> 00:34:52,399 basically becomes the foundation story 746 00:35:00,700 --> 00:34:56,589 of psychedelic drugs that they are 747 00:35:05,079 --> 00:35:00,710 basically from a vast and deep religious 748 00:35:08,890 --> 00:35:05,089 tradition and that they will help person 749 00:35:11,739 --> 00:35:08,900 on their spiritual development and you 750 00:35:15,489 --> 00:35:11,749 know the story that Watson told was 751 00:35:17,440 --> 00:35:15,499 untrue I mean the events were shaded in 752 00:35:21,400 --> 00:35:17,450 such a way to create the impression that 753 00:35:23,940 --> 00:35:21,410 this was a an ancient God seeking 754 00:35:28,059 --> 00:35:23,950 organization in Wasson and went on with 755 00:35:30,370 --> 00:35:28,069 Carl Rusk and named this you know 756 00:35:34,269 --> 00:35:30,380 category of psychedelic drugs and 757 00:35:36,579 --> 00:35:34,279 fusions you know the God within and you 758 00:35:40,359 --> 00:35:36,589 know in fact this was all nonsense the 759 00:35:41,709 --> 00:35:40,369 you know the the ancient codicils and 760 00:35:43,930 --> 00:35:41,719 the letters from the missionary all 761 00:35:46,390 --> 00:35:43,940 talked about the use of mushrooms as 762 00:35:49,150 --> 00:35:46,400 something that you know would be akin to 763 00:35:51,130 --> 00:35:49,160 LSD use by the grip by the deadheads I 764 00:35:52,719 --> 00:35:51,140 mean it was it was not something that 765 00:35:56,799 --> 00:35:52,729 was a spiritual development that it was 766 00:36:00,279 --> 00:35:56,809 more recreational or narcotic you know 767 00:36:02,950 --> 00:36:00,289 people talk about ayahuasca and like 768 00:36:06,400 --> 00:36:02,960 well you know how could it possibly be 769 00:36:08,739 --> 00:36:06,410 the case that these two plants were 770 00:36:11,289 --> 00:36:08,749 joined together and that's you know just 771 00:36:14,440 --> 00:36:11,299 because people don't know that in that 772 00:36:16,599 --> 00:36:14,450 culture that emetics are very common 773 00:36:18,190 --> 00:36:16,609 that because of the parasites and you 774 00:36:21,279 --> 00:36:18,200 know the amazon basin that people need 775 00:36:21,580 --> 00:36:21,289 to vomit and so there had been you know 776 00:36:24,520 --> 00:36:21,590 what 777 00:36:27,310 --> 00:36:24,530 tradition of emetics going back a long 778 00:36:29,230 --> 00:36:27,320 way and at one point something figured 779 00:36:31,150 --> 00:36:29,240 out that if you combined these two 780 00:36:33,340 --> 00:36:31,160 plants you could really get sick and 781 00:36:35,020 --> 00:36:33,350 this was the basis of ayahuasca it was 782 00:36:38,350 --> 00:36:35,030 it was through the emetic tradition it 783 00:36:40,210 --> 00:36:38,360 wasn't a long-standing spiritual path 784 00:36:43,090 --> 00:36:40,220 and then of course that was brought you 785 00:36:45,270 --> 00:36:43,100 know just like the the the magic 786 00:36:48,790 --> 00:36:45,280 mushrooms is brought by Gordon Watson 787 00:36:50,200 --> 00:36:48,800 and n MKULTRA because Watson's trip was 788 00:36:53,590 --> 00:36:50,210 then discovered documents were then 789 00:36:55,330 --> 00:36:53,600 discovered dr. Colin Ross psychiatrist 790 00:36:58,390 --> 00:36:55,340 who was dealing with victims of MKULTRA 791 00:37:00,220 --> 00:36:58,400 in Canada he got his hands on on 792 00:37:03,850 --> 00:37:00,230 documents and found that Wasson 793 00:37:05,200 --> 00:37:03,860 basically was being paid for as all of 794 00:37:08,950 --> 00:37:05,210 these trips were being paid for right 795 00:37:11,110 --> 00:37:08,960 out of MKULTRA so Watson was you know 796 00:37:14,830 --> 00:37:11,120 was what this whole trip was an MKULTRA 797 00:37:17,080 --> 00:37:14,840 project and this you know it's very 798 00:37:18,520 --> 00:37:17,090 similar to how the ayahuasca comes into 799 00:37:21,700 --> 00:37:18,530 our culture because that comes from 800 00:37:23,500 --> 00:37:21,710 William Burroughs Burroughs is someone 801 00:37:26,290 --> 00:37:23,510 who was has a background in military 802 00:37:28,030 --> 00:37:26,300 intelligence he had private meetings 803 00:37:31,120 --> 00:37:28,040 with William Donovan who became the 804 00:37:34,660 --> 00:37:31,130 first head of the CIA before he goes 805 00:37:38,080 --> 00:37:34,670 down to Mexico while he's there he he 806 00:37:41,470 --> 00:37:38,090 kills his wife and then goes into the 807 00:37:44,680 --> 00:37:41,480 jungle with John Marquis Archie is an 808 00:37:49,060 --> 00:37:44,690 OSS guy and they are looking for the 809 00:37:50,830 --> 00:37:49,070 ayahuasca you know this is this is you 810 00:37:52,690 --> 00:37:50,840 know and when you stand back and look at 811 00:37:53,980 --> 00:37:52,700 the big picture you can see this is just 812 00:37:57,070 --> 00:37:53,990 they're just trying to create this kind 813 00:38:00,610 --> 00:37:57,080 of tradition that doesn't really exist 814 00:38:03,490 --> 00:38:00,620 of a deep spiritual history for these 815 00:38:05,890 --> 00:38:03,500 plants and this is all going to be given 816 00:38:07,960 --> 00:38:05,900 to basically the deadhead as 817 00:38:09,790 --> 00:38:07,970 justification for the cultural 818 00:38:14,260 --> 00:38:09,800 development that they're interested in 819 00:38:17,640 --> 00:38:14,270 bringing about you know I always 820 00:38:19,990 --> 00:38:17,650 mentioned that people do this little 821 00:38:21,760 --> 00:38:20,000 experiment because it's very simple and 822 00:38:24,040 --> 00:38:21,770 you can see what we're up against if 823 00:38:25,960 --> 00:38:24,050 there's anything in our culture that 824 00:38:29,350 --> 00:38:25,970 shows you exactly we're up against it's 825 00:38:32,110 --> 00:38:29,360 the 19 May 1957 Life magazine cover 826 00:38:34,010 --> 00:38:32,120 right so you look at the cover and 827 00:38:36,850 --> 00:38:34,020 you'll see there's a black box 828 00:38:40,609 --> 00:38:36,860 which is inset into the cover and 829 00:38:44,900 --> 00:38:40,619 there's words on it and one of them is 830 00:38:46,880 --> 00:38:44,910 basically describing the spiritual 831 00:38:50,660 --> 00:38:46,890 visions from mushrooms in the Mexican 832 00:38:52,400 --> 00:38:50,670 desert but two articles which are 833 00:38:54,790 --> 00:38:52,410 distinct from Mawson's are also 834 00:38:58,480 --> 00:38:54,800 referenced inside the black box and the 835 00:39:02,240 --> 00:38:58,490 one on top simply says great adventures 836 00:39:04,160 --> 00:39:02,250 but the final words are just are 837 00:39:07,520 --> 00:39:04,170 purportedly describing another article 838 00:39:11,510 --> 00:39:07,530 but are the words teenage allowances 839 00:39:12,800 --> 00:39:11,520 right now I assert that once you 840 00:39:15,230 --> 00:39:12,810 understand that neural linguistic 841 00:39:17,510 --> 00:39:15,240 programming or coding the unconscious 842 00:39:19,370 --> 00:39:17,520 you know you mentioned you know how they 843 00:39:20,870 --> 00:39:19,380 were like looking at how to get at the 844 00:39:22,880 --> 00:39:20,880 unconscious with these different 845 00:39:26,359 --> 00:39:22,890 techniques why don't you understand that 846 00:39:28,460 --> 00:39:26,369 wasun is representing MKULTRA then you 847 00:39:31,820 --> 00:39:28,470 look at the box and you go oh I get it 848 00:39:33,770 --> 00:39:31,830 great adventures teenage allowances you 849 00:39:35,000 --> 00:39:33,780 see this is what they're trying to do 850 00:39:39,890 --> 00:39:35,010 this is all going to end up in Woodstock 851 00:39:43,670 --> 00:39:39,900 in about 12 years so they they're using 852 00:39:46,160 --> 00:39:43,680 neuro-linguistic programming basically 853 00:39:48,440 --> 00:39:46,170 they have determined how to you know 854 00:39:50,630 --> 00:39:48,450 what they think are ways to basically 855 00:39:54,620 --> 00:39:50,640 influence us through the subconscious 856 00:39:56,870 --> 00:39:54,630 and they are just transparently using it 857 00:40:00,340 --> 00:39:56,880 in in this you know in this life 858 00:40:02,540 --> 00:40:00,350 magazine cover and so you know this is 859 00:40:05,480 --> 00:40:02,550 you know this is a place where I think 860 00:40:07,609 --> 00:40:05,490 the citizens should just stop spend a 861 00:40:10,400 --> 00:40:07,619 little time and reflection try to you 862 00:40:12,050 --> 00:40:10,410 know they're maybe go through the 863 00:40:14,690 --> 00:40:12,060 process of kind of looking a little bit 864 00:40:17,780 --> 00:40:14,700 at neural linguistic programming looking 865 00:40:20,300 --> 00:40:17,790 at what the MKULTRA science was in 866 00:40:22,040 --> 00:40:20,310 development and then just honestly ask 867 00:40:24,320 --> 00:40:22,050 yourself well is there any possibility 868 00:40:26,420 --> 00:40:24,330 that's a circumstance because I just 869 00:40:28,250 --> 00:40:26,430 don't think so Alex I'm afraid not and 870 00:40:34,070 --> 00:40:28,260 so this is what we're up against is that 871 00:40:38,410 --> 00:40:34,080 they are very sophisticated they have an 872 00:40:41,349 --> 00:40:38,420 absolute disregard for the humanity of 873 00:40:44,990 --> 00:40:41,359 the what could be called their subjects 874 00:40:46,779 --> 00:40:45,000 right when you look at 9-1-1 look at the 875 00:40:50,429 --> 00:40:46,789 number of deaths that occurred 876 00:40:52,599 --> 00:40:50,439 you know the people that pulled that off 877 00:40:54,789 --> 00:40:52,609 basically felt they had the moral 878 00:40:56,469 --> 00:40:54,799 authority just to kill thousands of 879 00:40:59,919 --> 00:40:56,479 people and what can be described as a 880 00:41:02,169 --> 00:40:59,929 religious ritual right I mean there was 881 00:41:04,390 --> 00:41:02,179 really no they could have done this this 882 00:41:06,329 --> 00:41:04,400 in many other ways without having so 883 00:41:08,589 --> 00:41:06,339 many fatalities but they did it this way 884 00:41:12,459 --> 00:41:08,599 which means that they don't give a damn 885 00:41:15,609 --> 00:41:12,469 about the life the the value of 886 00:41:19,029 --> 00:41:15,619 existence of the people that they see as 887 00:41:21,400 --> 00:41:19,039 their subjects so when you look at the 888 00:41:25,959 --> 00:41:21,410 May 1957 cover you're looking at the 889 00:41:29,049 --> 00:41:25,969 same moral view of humanity you're 890 00:41:33,429 --> 00:41:29,059 inside the guild or you are basically an 891 00:41:36,130 --> 00:41:33,439 animal and so this is the the point that 892 00:41:38,679 --> 00:41:36,140 the Citizen has to start to organize 893 00:41:42,099 --> 00:41:38,689 themselves to defend themselves against 894 00:41:45,400 --> 00:41:42,109 this group I mean we want to have a 895 00:41:47,919 --> 00:41:45,410 future we want to have you know a world 896 00:41:50,109 --> 00:41:47,929 where our children can flourish we have 897 00:41:51,699 --> 00:41:50,119 got to clean up the mess in government 898 00:41:54,699 --> 00:41:51,709 you know the people control that we've 899 00:41:58,209 --> 00:41:54,709 got to expose it we have to you know 900 00:42:01,959 --> 00:41:58,219 basically make democracy work to benefit 901 00:42:04,599 --> 00:42:01,969 us and and recognize how they have 902 00:42:07,929 --> 00:42:04,609 controlled it you know and control the 903 00:42:11,439 --> 00:42:07,939 candidates so that we have no choices so 904 00:42:14,169 --> 00:42:11,449 that our history is is falsified you 905 00:42:17,289 --> 00:42:14,179 know so that you know when 9/11 these 906 00:42:19,359 --> 00:42:17,299 things occur the media just creates a 907 00:42:21,640 --> 00:42:19,369 fictional story that's used for mind 908 00:42:23,979 --> 00:42:21,650 control well let me jump in there 909 00:42:25,479 --> 00:42:23,989 sorry no no that's all right you you 910 00:42:27,870 --> 00:42:25,489 made some you made some really good 911 00:42:31,120 --> 00:42:27,880 points and I think you made your case 912 00:42:32,380 --> 00:42:31,130 very in a very strong way that you know 913 00:42:34,989 --> 00:42:32,390 people are gonna find a lot of things 914 00:42:37,870 --> 00:42:34,999 that maybe they don't go along with but 915 00:42:40,239 --> 00:42:37,880 I'd encourage anyone to really but at 916 00:42:42,999 --> 00:42:40,249 the same time dig into all the details 917 00:42:45,819 --> 00:42:43,009 and then step back and say is he may be 918 00:42:48,909 --> 00:42:45,829 right that we have to look at things in 919 00:42:52,229 --> 00:42:48,919 that way but I want to kind of counter 920 00:42:54,939 --> 00:42:52,239 some of the things that you're saying in 921 00:42:57,849 --> 00:42:54,949 the from where I'm coming from that I 922 00:43:00,220 --> 00:42:57,859 think I'd like to love to explore with 923 00:43:03,610 --> 00:43:00,230 you and hear your response to four 924 00:43:07,990 --> 00:43:03,620 I understand the assume they're all 925 00:43:10,090 --> 00:43:08,000 dirty ethos you know I mean III get that 926 00:43:11,290 --> 00:43:10,100 in the way that you said it in terms of 927 00:43:12,070 --> 00:43:11,300 if we're really going to get to the 928 00:43:15,550 --> 00:43:12,080 bottom of it 929 00:43:15,970 --> 00:43:15,560 we can't keep giving people the benefit 930 00:43:18,100 --> 00:43:15,980 of the doubt 931 00:43:21,400 --> 00:43:18,110 you know maybe a plane really did fly 932 00:43:23,020 --> 00:43:21,410 into 9/11 no you have to analyze the 933 00:43:25,540 --> 00:43:23,030 evidence the best you can and then 934 00:43:27,900 --> 00:43:25,550 bravely come to the conclusions that 935 00:43:31,090 --> 00:43:27,910 you're going to come to no matter how 936 00:43:34,300 --> 00:43:31,100 unpleasant they might be at the same 937 00:43:37,990 --> 00:43:34,310 time I don't think assume they're all 938 00:43:41,590 --> 00:43:38,000 dirty really works either and it can 939 00:43:44,310 --> 00:43:41,600 lead us to kind of our own just 940 00:43:47,620 --> 00:43:44,320 reinforcing our own beliefs in a way so 941 00:43:50,140 --> 00:43:47,630 let me kind of present my thesis and 942 00:43:52,540 --> 00:43:50,150 I'll do that by first talking about 943 00:43:54,960 --> 00:43:52,550 Terrence and Dennis McKenna who I'm sure 944 00:43:58,300 --> 00:43:54,970 you're aware of and they're 945 00:44:01,240 --> 00:43:58,310 well-documented Psychonauts people who 946 00:44:03,310 --> 00:44:01,250 explored psychedelics but I mean go look 947 00:44:05,230 --> 00:44:03,320 at their history Joe these are two kids 948 00:44:08,470 --> 00:44:05,240 I mean they're practically teenagers I 949 00:44:12,130 --> 00:44:08,480 think Terrence is 23 and Dennis is 19 950 00:44:16,150 --> 00:44:12,140 when they're there in India which has a 951 00:44:20,440 --> 00:44:16,160 long long many hundreds or thousands of 952 00:44:23,770 --> 00:44:20,450 year history in using psychedelic and 953 00:44:26,980 --> 00:44:23,780 mine altering plants and cotton 954 00:44:30,220 --> 00:44:26,990 substances so they're there looking for 955 00:44:33,340 --> 00:44:30,230 the truth and they can't find it or they 956 00:44:35,530 --> 00:44:33,350 they become disillusioned with what they 957 00:44:37,570 --> 00:44:35,540 see so they say okay we're gonna go 958 00:44:39,580 --> 00:44:37,580 totally third-world we're gonna go to 959 00:44:41,260 --> 00:44:39,590 Colombia and they start traipsing 960 00:44:43,210 --> 00:44:41,270 through the hills of Colombia and you 961 00:44:46,030 --> 00:44:43,220 can go read their accounts and read 962 00:44:47,620 --> 00:44:46,040 their their story and you can also look 963 00:44:51,850 --> 00:44:47,630 at their lives and how they live their 964 00:44:54,070 --> 00:44:51,860 lives afterwards and you know again here 965 00:44:57,640 --> 00:44:54,080 is where I think assuming they're all 966 00:45:00,040 --> 00:44:57,650 dirty doesn't work if you if we have 967 00:45:03,340 --> 00:45:00,050 some solid evidence that suggests that 968 00:45:05,890 --> 00:45:03,350 these guys were their message was being 969 00:45:09,190 --> 00:45:05,900 controlled and manipulated then bring it 970 00:45:11,950 --> 00:45:09,200 but the way that I read it sounds pretty 971 00:45:13,550 --> 00:45:11,960 straight up to me that they're walking 972 00:45:16,190 --> 00:45:13,560 through the hills and they do 973 00:45:17,990 --> 00:45:16,200 across shaman who we do know exist and 974 00:45:20,600 --> 00:45:18,000 they say yeah there are the mushrooms 975 00:45:22,610 --> 00:45:20,610 you can eat and here are some of the 976 00:45:24,140 --> 00:45:22,620 other plants that you can do and here 977 00:45:27,140 --> 00:45:24,150 are the effects and they'll connect us 978 00:45:29,660 --> 00:45:27,150 with this alternative consciousness that 979 00:45:33,320 --> 00:45:29,670 I think we're going to talk about in a 980 00:45:35,810 --> 00:45:33,330 minute so let me just stop there and say 981 00:45:39,380 --> 00:45:35,820 what do you make of Terrence and Dennis 982 00:45:44,120 --> 00:45:39,390 McKenna in my opinion they're just total 983 00:45:48,200 --> 00:45:44,130 liars and are basically just operatives 984 00:45:50,030 --> 00:45:48,210 for the organization I could be wrong I 985 00:45:53,630 --> 00:45:50,040 mean how could I actually prove it there 986 00:45:56,390 --> 00:45:53,640 there is hold on because you can prove 987 00:45:59,050 --> 00:45:56,400 it I mean I think the kind of proof that 988 00:46:02,090 --> 00:45:59,060 you brought to gordon Wasson is 989 00:46:02,870 --> 00:46:02,100 incredibly compelling to most of us it 990 00:46:05,540 --> 00:46:02,880 is to me 991 00:46:08,270 --> 00:46:05,550 but you know the last time we spoke I 992 00:46:10,520 --> 00:46:08,280 told you about right I brought up 993 00:46:13,310 --> 00:46:10,530 Ram Dass you know former Harvard 994 00:46:15,140 --> 00:46:13,320 University and colleague of Timothy 995 00:46:17,450 --> 00:46:15,150 Leary who when you look into his 996 00:46:19,340 --> 00:46:17,460 background you know you could kind of 997 00:46:21,380 --> 00:46:19,350 draw these conclusions that it looks 998 00:46:24,200 --> 00:46:21,390 sketchy so that's why I didn't bring him 999 00:46:26,840 --> 00:46:24,210 him up again if you really look at his 1000 00:46:29,480 --> 00:46:26,850 life and his associates and the people 1001 00:46:31,520 --> 00:46:29,490 around him and what they say hundreds 1002 00:46:33,860 --> 00:46:31,530 and hundreds of people I don't think 1003 00:46:36,200 --> 00:46:33,870 he's at all sketchy I think we can only 1004 00:46:38,300 --> 00:46:36,210 take his account for for what it is 1005 00:46:40,430 --> 00:46:38,310 again I don't think we can assume he's 1006 00:46:42,950 --> 00:46:40,440 dirty but I left him out of the 1007 00:46:45,710 --> 00:46:42,960 discussion this time because Terrence 1008 00:46:48,890 --> 00:46:45,720 and Dennis McKenna I've look I just 1009 00:46:51,980 --> 00:46:48,900 don't see the the usual kind of funny 1010 00:46:56,470 --> 00:46:51,990 business connections with with the power 1011 00:47:00,770 --> 00:46:56,480 structure well the case you know is 1012 00:47:03,290 --> 00:47:00,780 circumstantial and you know it's quite 1013 00:47:05,090 --> 00:47:03,300 often by you know basically by 1014 00:47:08,170 --> 00:47:05,100 association I mean we're dealing with a 1015 00:47:11,330 --> 00:47:08,180 secret society right we're dealing with 1016 00:47:16,460 --> 00:47:11,340 you know people who are trained to be 1017 00:47:18,770 --> 00:47:16,470 basically lifetime actors and so you're 1018 00:47:20,510 --> 00:47:18,780 rarely gonna come across you know 1019 00:47:23,990 --> 00:47:20,520 fingerprints you know like Gloria 1020 00:47:25,910 --> 00:47:24,000 steinem's outing as a CIA janitor gordon 1021 00:47:26,660 --> 00:47:25,920 was-- and they requisitioned three on 1022 00:47:29,170 --> 00:47:26,670 kale 1023 00:47:34,400 --> 00:47:29,180 you know they're good at hiding it um 1024 00:47:38,150 --> 00:47:34,410 but you have a circumstantial case that 1025 00:47:43,460 --> 00:47:38,160 I think becomes you know what should be 1026 00:47:47,030 --> 00:47:43,470 the operative reality and with the you 1027 00:47:51,020 --> 00:47:47,040 know with Terence Mckenna you know he 1028 00:47:54,980 --> 00:47:51,030 talks so much about the you know the 1029 00:47:56,870 --> 00:47:54,990 mushroom I believe it is talking you 1030 00:48:00,200 --> 00:47:56,880 know this information that he's getting 1031 00:48:04,670 --> 00:48:00,210 you know from the the plant I mean this 1032 00:48:09,680 --> 00:48:04,680 is rubbish and is basically it's the 1033 00:48:12,080 --> 00:48:09,690 same approach that Gordon Watson used 1034 00:48:14,750 --> 00:48:12,090 but hold on joke because now we're 1035 00:48:16,490 --> 00:48:14,760 really getting at the root cause of this 1036 00:48:18,830 --> 00:48:16,500 and the way that I think it connects 1037 00:48:20,780 --> 00:48:18,840 with what I've investigated and with 1038 00:48:24,740 --> 00:48:20,790 skeptical for the last ten years and 1039 00:48:27,290 --> 00:48:24,750 that here's my working hypothesis that I 1040 00:48:30,320 --> 00:48:27,300 accept so much of what you're saying as 1041 00:48:33,320 --> 00:48:30,330 being true in the debasing of culture 1042 00:48:35,510 --> 00:48:33,330 the weaponizing of anthropology which I 1043 00:48:38,290 --> 00:48:35,520 love that phrase that you've turned 1044 00:48:42,580 --> 00:48:38,300 there I think it's perfectly stated and 1045 00:48:45,380 --> 00:48:42,590 the weaponization of the mind and 1046 00:48:46,940 --> 00:48:45,390 psychedelics as a part of that but 1047 00:48:50,390 --> 00:48:46,950 here's where I read the history 1048 00:48:54,580 --> 00:48:50,400 different I think they made a 1049 00:48:57,800 --> 00:48:54,590 fundamental mistake in what they thought 1050 00:49:00,830 --> 00:48:57,810 psychedelics would do and how they would 1051 00:49:02,990 --> 00:49:00,840 be used because they had a fundamental 1052 00:49:05,930 --> 00:49:03,000 misunderstanding about the nature of 1053 00:49:08,000 --> 00:49:05,940 consciousness and as I've explored on 1054 00:49:10,970 --> 00:49:08,010 this show that fundamental 1055 00:49:14,120 --> 00:49:10,980 misunderstanding continues to be the 1056 00:49:18,250 --> 00:49:14,130 dominant paradigm in science but it is 1057 00:49:21,440 --> 00:49:18,260 just not true so they were on they were 1058 00:49:23,930 --> 00:49:21,450 operating under this paradigm mind 1059 00:49:27,140 --> 00:49:23,940 equals brain that we can change the 1060 00:49:29,480 --> 00:49:27,150 brain and that will somehow since the 1061 00:49:31,790 --> 00:49:29,490 brain generates all consciousness that 1062 00:49:34,280 --> 00:49:31,800 will change the conscious experience and 1063 00:49:36,080 --> 00:49:34,290 what they didn't plan on and what they 1064 00:49:39,860 --> 00:49:36,090 didn't understand what they didn't see 1065 00:49:40,130 --> 00:49:39,870 is that consciousness is somehow and 1066 00:49:43,010 --> 00:49:40,140 some 1067 00:49:47,330 --> 00:49:43,020 we don't understand fundamental it's 1068 00:49:50,360 --> 00:49:47,340 beyond the brain the brain is to put it 1069 00:49:53,450 --> 00:49:50,370 in simple terms acting like a filter or 1070 00:49:57,050 --> 00:49:53,460 a valve in how consciousness is 1071 00:50:01,160 --> 00:49:57,060 perceived and operated with by the human 1072 00:50:03,790 --> 00:50:01,170 being but we are not consciousness and I 1073 00:50:06,140 --> 00:50:03,800 think there's a there's a deeper 1074 00:50:07,970 --> 00:50:06,150 struggle if you want to call it with you 1075 00:50:10,370 --> 00:50:07,980 know this elite class is controlling 1076 00:50:12,560 --> 00:50:10,380 class that oligarchs and you know who 1077 00:50:15,350 --> 00:50:12,570 knows how that whole thing is divided 1078 00:50:18,500 --> 00:50:15,360 but I think there's a fundamental divide 1079 00:50:21,140 --> 00:50:18,510 even among those groups in terms of this 1080 00:50:23,900 --> 00:50:21,150 issue of consciousness and whether we 1081 00:50:27,470 --> 00:50:23,910 really are these biological robots that 1082 00:50:29,170 --> 00:50:27,480 can be manipulated or whether as we know 1083 00:50:31,850 --> 00:50:29,180 from a lot of these secret societies 1084 00:50:34,160 --> 00:50:31,860 their understanding is that there is 1085 00:50:37,040 --> 00:50:34,170 some higher order to consciousness and 1086 00:50:39,290 --> 00:50:37,050 there is some effect in the spiritual 1087 00:50:41,990 --> 00:50:39,300 world that they're trying to marshal and 1088 00:50:44,990 --> 00:50:42,000 control but before I get too far afield 1089 00:50:47,630 --> 00:50:45,000 I want to bring it back to you and I got 1090 00:50:50,360 --> 00:50:47,640 tons of evidence I can scientific 1091 00:50:52,940 --> 00:50:50,370 evidence as we talked about in you know 1092 00:50:55,400 --> 00:50:52,950 my recent episode with codeine Akoni and 1093 00:50:56,990 --> 00:50:55,410 I talked about Rick Strassman and I can 1094 00:50:59,840 --> 00:50:57,000 give you just tons of other examples 1095 00:51:01,520 --> 00:50:59,850 David Nutt in the UK all these 1096 00:51:03,890 --> 00:51:01,530 experiments that have been done with 1097 00:51:07,100 --> 00:51:03,900 psychedelics that all seem to point in 1098 00:51:10,420 --> 00:51:07,110 the same direction it's not about the 1099 00:51:13,040 --> 00:51:10,430 brain primarily it's pointing to a 1100 00:51:15,860 --> 00:51:13,050 greater consciousness that is somehow 1101 00:51:19,160 --> 00:51:15,870 fundamental and I don't think these 1102 00:51:22,520 --> 00:51:19,170 culture shapers knew that or saw that 1103 00:51:24,650 --> 00:51:22,530 until they ran square into it with the 1104 00:51:28,010 --> 00:51:24,660 psychedelic movement what are your 1105 00:51:30,310 --> 00:51:28,020 thoughts on that well if it's not about 1106 00:51:34,670 --> 00:51:30,320 the brain then they don't need the drugs 1107 00:51:37,520 --> 00:51:34,680 so that well they it's not that they 1108 00:51:40,910 --> 00:51:37,530 need the drugs but that there is a 1109 00:51:43,370 --> 00:51:40,920 larger consciousness and that when you 1110 00:51:45,770 --> 00:51:43,380 effect the drugs you can affect the way 1111 00:51:48,230 --> 00:51:45,780 that we interact with that larger 1112 00:51:50,720 --> 00:51:48,240 consciousness but it's not to 1113 00:51:53,560 --> 00:51:50,730 misunderstand the relationship between 1114 00:51:55,360 --> 00:51:53,570 the brain and consciousness 1115 00:51:57,210 --> 00:51:55,370 it's like the 50 shows I've done on 1116 00:51:59,830 --> 00:51:57,220 near-death experience 1117 00:52:02,890 --> 00:51:59,840 the reason I did him is because there's 1118 00:52:06,130 --> 00:52:02,900 kind of the final straw 1119 00:52:09,820 --> 00:52:06,140 I mean consciousness extends beyond 1120 00:52:12,850 --> 00:52:09,830 bodily death we know that science and 1121 00:52:15,190 --> 00:52:12,860 the science control mechanism fights 1122 00:52:17,650 --> 00:52:15,200 that tooth and nail because they like 1123 00:52:20,520 --> 00:52:17,660 the paradigm that were under right now 1124 00:52:23,110 --> 00:52:20,530 which is all this very controlled 1125 00:52:24,930 --> 00:52:23,120 biological robot kind of thing but 1126 00:52:27,100 --> 00:52:24,940 that's just not the nature of reality 1127 00:52:29,260 --> 00:52:27,110 consciousness extends beyond bodily 1128 00:52:31,090 --> 00:52:29,270 death that's just the way it is I don't 1129 00:52:36,520 --> 00:52:31,100 know what it means but that's the way it 1130 00:52:38,380 --> 00:52:36,530 is well as I said if it isn't you know 1131 00:52:41,140 --> 00:52:38,390 about the brain and the ozarks wouldn't 1132 00:52:44,650 --> 00:52:41,150 need the drugs the oleg arts are you 1133 00:52:47,530 --> 00:52:44,660 know the issues that that you're you 1134 00:52:51,760 --> 00:52:47,540 know bringing up are really just in a 1135 00:52:54,070 --> 00:52:51,770 separate categorical compartment it's 1136 00:52:56,770 --> 00:52:54,080 just the the oligarchs were interested 1137 00:52:58,300 --> 00:52:56,780 in control they use drugs basically to 1138 00:53:01,870 --> 00:52:58,310 produce what they what they see as 1139 00:53:05,020 --> 00:53:01,880 psychosis so when when someone takes 1140 00:53:08,170 --> 00:53:05,030 drugs and you know basically sees 1141 00:53:11,110 --> 00:53:08,180 something that is not in what the oleg 1142 00:53:13,210 --> 00:53:11,120 arcs see as the world the real world the 1143 00:53:18,030 --> 00:53:13,220 world that they want to control then 1144 00:53:22,570 --> 00:53:18,040 they've had you know success and so 1145 00:53:25,510 --> 00:53:22,580 basically if you look at Wasson's paper 1146 00:53:29,050 --> 00:53:25,520 you know the first you know the life 1147 00:53:31,300 --> 00:53:29,060 magazine article he says that the drugs 1148 00:53:33,130 --> 00:53:31,310 produce a kind of schizophrenia and he 1149 00:53:35,680 --> 00:53:33,140 says that this is very positive right 1150 00:53:39,880 --> 00:53:35,690 that this something people should want 1151 00:53:42,550 --> 00:53:39,890 to have just after the acid test the 1152 00:53:47,190 --> 00:53:42,560 Esalen Institute which McKenna is 1153 00:53:49,030 --> 00:53:47,200 involved with produced the seminars on 1154 00:53:51,190 --> 00:53:49,040 psychosis prend 1155 00:53:55,510 --> 00:53:51,200 they all promoted psychosis is kind of 1156 00:54:01,300 --> 00:53:55,520 this artistic and valuable state you 1157 00:54:04,180 --> 00:54:01,310 have Alan Ginsberg Alan Watts the one of 1158 00:54:05,339 --> 00:54:04,190 the guys a psychiatrist from Peru I 1159 00:54:07,319 --> 00:54:05,349 think 1160 00:54:11,130 --> 00:54:07,329 and you know they're all touting the 1161 00:54:13,769 --> 00:54:11,140 values of psychosis as well if you just 1162 00:54:16,109 --> 00:54:13,779 always analyze these things from the 1163 00:54:18,299 --> 00:54:16,119 perspective of the of the oligarch you 1164 00:54:20,729 --> 00:54:18,309 can see you know that they're getting 1165 00:54:23,849 --> 00:54:20,739 what they want they could care less if 1166 00:54:27,689 --> 00:54:23,859 the individuals in the psychotic or 1167 00:54:30,630 --> 00:54:27,699 schizophrenic or drug-induced state you 1168 00:54:32,370 --> 00:54:30,640 know have a spiritual community 1169 00:54:34,769 --> 00:54:32,380 communion with something they don't care 1170 00:54:37,259 --> 00:54:34,779 but but hold on because that's kind of 1171 00:54:38,870 --> 00:54:37,269 the point in a way you know you can go 1172 00:54:41,099 --> 00:54:38,880 all the way back and look at the 1173 00:54:43,259 --> 00:54:41,109 experiments that we still can see the 1174 00:54:46,289 --> 00:54:43,269 LSD experiments that we can still see 1175 00:54:48,209 --> 00:54:46,299 youtubes on and what a lot of these 1176 00:54:51,209 --> 00:54:48,219 people that have these transformative 1177 00:54:54,120 --> 00:54:51,219 spiritual experiences are saying is hey 1178 00:54:56,479 --> 00:54:54,130 I'll trump your I don't care with even 1179 00:54:59,059 --> 00:54:56,489 bigger I don't care and by that I mean 1180 00:55:01,620 --> 00:54:59,069 all's I care about is that 1181 00:55:04,199 --> 00:55:01,630 transformative spiritual experience 1182 00:55:07,289 --> 00:55:04,209 because that is the window to the large 1183 00:55:09,930 --> 00:55:07,299 reality that you don't get so you can 1184 00:55:13,709 --> 00:55:09,940 play your little control game down here 1185 00:55:16,259 --> 00:55:13,719 and you can kill millions of people and 1186 00:55:20,459 --> 00:55:16,269 you can abuse whoever you want to abuse 1187 00:55:24,509 --> 00:55:20,469 but you are close to a larger reality 1188 00:55:28,259 --> 00:55:24,519 that I now have a glimpse of so I'm kind 1189 00:55:30,029 --> 00:55:28,269 of more at peace with the game that 1190 00:55:32,880 --> 00:55:30,039 you're playing and I'm not trying to 1191 00:55:36,329 --> 00:55:32,890 convince you of that per se but I'm just 1192 00:55:39,599 --> 00:55:36,339 saying that is another way to read 1193 00:55:41,640 --> 00:55:39,609 what's going on and it's actually what 1194 00:55:44,189 --> 00:55:41,650 they're saying so the people in the LSD 1195 00:55:46,019 --> 00:55:44,199 experiments that are it's hilarious if 1196 00:55:47,729 --> 00:55:46,029 one goes back and watches this because 1197 00:55:49,709 --> 00:55:47,739 they're these guys in these 1950s 1198 00:55:51,749 --> 00:55:49,719 short-sleeve white shirts and the thin 1199 00:55:53,130 --> 00:55:51,759 ties and they didn't know what they were 1200 00:55:56,339 --> 00:55:53,140 doing and they do this drug and they're 1201 00:55:59,329 --> 00:55:56,349 suddenly like man everything I thought I 1202 00:56:02,099 --> 00:55:59,339 knew I don't know it doesn't matter and 1203 00:56:03,779 --> 00:56:02,109 if we read the records the experimenters 1204 00:56:06,660 --> 00:56:03,789 ago hey wait a minute this isn't exactly 1205 00:56:09,449 --> 00:56:06,670 what we wanted or expected here you know 1206 00:56:11,519 --> 00:56:09,459 so if the CIA or these control 1207 00:56:13,469 --> 00:56:11,529 mechanisms being what they are and this 1208 00:56:16,949 --> 00:56:13,479 is again my opinion they are more 1209 00:56:18,940 --> 00:56:16,959 reactive than proactive right no one is 1210 00:56:20,740 --> 00:56:18,950 right a hundred percent of the time 1211 00:56:22,329 --> 00:56:20,750 so what these guys do is just real crap 1212 00:56:24,760 --> 00:56:22,339 out there and then say oh well that 1213 00:56:27,130 --> 00:56:24,770 didn't go the way we wanted well how can 1214 00:56:29,859 --> 00:56:27,140 we still use it how can we you know 1215 00:56:31,809 --> 00:56:29,869 debase culture with it or whatever but I 1216 00:56:35,410 --> 00:56:31,819 can see how they could go down that path 1217 00:56:38,049 --> 00:56:35,420 without realizing what they had 1218 00:56:44,010 --> 00:56:38,059 unleashed and what they had unleashed is 1219 00:56:48,099 --> 00:56:44,020 an access a doorway to truly a greater 1220 00:56:51,069 --> 00:56:48,109 consciousness field and you know if I 1221 00:56:52,930 --> 00:56:51,079 could bring it back to the interview you 1222 00:56:56,589 --> 00:56:52,940 listened to that I gave you the clips 1223 00:56:58,990 --> 00:56:56,599 from dr. Rick Strassman at University of 1224 00:57:01,690 --> 00:56:59,000 New Mexico who just a few years ago 1225 00:57:05,910 --> 00:57:01,700 relatively you know was given permission 1226 00:57:09,400 --> 00:57:05,920 to use DMT and to experiment with DMT I 1227 00:57:11,799 --> 00:57:09,410 mean again we can assume that they're 1228 00:57:14,109 --> 00:57:11,809 all dirty but I find no reason to assume 1229 00:57:16,089 --> 00:57:14,119 that they're all dirty from looking at 1230 00:57:20,140 --> 00:57:16,099 this guy's research in talking to this 1231 00:57:23,940 --> 00:57:20,150 guy and yet his conclusion is that his 1232 00:57:27,460 --> 00:57:23,950 subjects of his experiment were truly 1233 00:57:29,680 --> 00:57:27,470 transported to a different field of 1234 00:57:32,650 --> 00:57:29,690 consciousness beyond their brain that 1235 00:57:36,069 --> 00:57:32,660 had different characteristics and again 1236 00:57:39,250 --> 00:57:36,079 that's been widely reported so I can see 1237 00:57:41,349 --> 00:57:39,260 how both of these can be true how there 1238 00:57:45,900 --> 00:57:41,359 can be this larger consciousness and 1239 00:57:49,120 --> 00:57:45,910 there can also be these control oriented 1240 00:57:51,099 --> 00:57:49,130 master the universe oriented people who 1241 00:57:54,460 --> 00:57:51,109 just kind of ignore all that and say 1242 00:57:56,950 --> 00:57:54,470 well how can I use these tools to get my 1243 00:57:58,710 --> 00:57:56,960 gains so I don't think that's really 1244 00:58:02,170 --> 00:57:58,720 where you're at but I want to make clear 1245 00:58:06,220 --> 00:58:02,180 that's the that's kind of how I see the 1246 00:58:08,289 --> 00:58:06,230 landscape sure I would just point out 1247 00:58:11,789 --> 00:58:08,299 those those videos I mean you're looking 1248 00:58:15,789 --> 00:58:11,799 at Sidney cone and Nicholas Burke al 1249 00:58:18,250 --> 00:58:15,799 these are both MKULTRA psychiatrists if 1250 00:58:21,640 --> 00:58:18,260 you analyze the questioning that they're 1251 00:58:25,900 --> 00:58:21,650 doing of the subjects basically these 1252 00:58:28,510 --> 00:58:25,910 individuals should be tried for human 1253 00:58:30,099 --> 00:58:28,520 experimentation right these are like the 1254 00:58:32,859 --> 00:58:30,109 sickest individuals that have ever 1255 00:58:34,480 --> 00:58:32,869 crawled on the planet because they know 1256 00:58:36,220 --> 00:58:34,490 perfectly well that they've induced a 1257 00:58:38,620 --> 00:58:36,230 kind of schizophrenia and the questions 1258 00:58:42,749 --> 00:58:38,630 they're trying to see to what extent is 1259 00:58:45,609 --> 00:58:42,759 the you know perception of reality being 1260 00:58:47,499 --> 00:58:45,619 damaged by the drug they're looking for 1261 00:58:51,029 --> 00:58:47,509 how much psychosis they can produce 1262 00:58:52,839 --> 00:58:51,039 they're using human beings for 1263 00:58:55,150 --> 00:58:52,849 experimentation and there is no 1264 00:58:56,739 --> 00:58:55,160 guarantee that these individuals are 1265 00:58:58,900 --> 00:58:56,749 going to recover their sanity many 1266 00:59:01,089 --> 00:58:58,910 people have taken that drug and have had 1267 00:59:02,859 --> 00:59:01,099 complete psychotic breaks that they've 1268 00:59:06,519 --> 00:59:02,869 never recovered from and those 1269 00:59:09,190 --> 00:59:06,529 individuals damn well knew it Alex so I 1270 00:59:11,259 --> 00:59:09,200 don't disagree with you you know I don't 1271 00:59:14,170 --> 00:59:11,269 do so back to those videos you go back 1272 00:59:17,319 --> 00:59:14,180 to those videos to Bercow and Cohn and 1273 00:59:19,059 --> 00:59:17,329 and just very carefully analyze the 1274 00:59:22,269 --> 00:59:19,069 questioning that they're doing and 1275 00:59:25,420 --> 00:59:22,279 you'll see they do not have any concern 1276 00:59:28,210 --> 00:59:25,430 whatsoever for the human value of their 1277 00:59:30,579 --> 00:59:28,220 subjects these are lab rats and they're 1278 00:59:33,339 --> 00:59:30,589 trying to determine that the degree of 1279 00:59:35,680 --> 00:59:33,349 psychosis that has happened Cohen is 1280 00:59:37,690 --> 00:59:35,690 just I mean you're just dealing with 1281 00:59:39,609 --> 00:59:37,700 evil you know on a scale that's just 1282 00:59:42,729 --> 00:59:39,619 unimaginable most humans can't even 1283 00:59:44,349 --> 00:59:42,739 imagine that that humans can really be 1284 00:59:45,460 --> 00:59:44,359 that sick and that's one of the reasons 1285 00:59:47,920 --> 00:59:45,470 why they can get away with it is because 1286 00:59:49,900 --> 00:59:47,930 people don't call them on it but this is 1287 00:59:51,579 --> 00:59:49,910 the case they knew perfectly well that 1288 00:59:53,650 --> 00:59:51,589 the drug produced psychosis and they 1289 00:59:55,210 --> 00:59:53,660 knew perfectly well that a fraction the 1290 00:59:56,140 --> 00:59:55,220 people wouldn't going to come back but 1291 00:59:58,960 --> 00:59:56,150 they went forward with the 1292 01:00:00,339 --> 00:59:58,970 experimentations regardless and then you 1293 01:00:03,160 --> 01:00:00,349 know I'll tell you something 1294 01:00:05,410 --> 01:00:03,170 those guys are also at the the EM Cal to 1295 01:00:08,410 --> 01:00:05,420 a union party and then you can see that 1296 01:00:11,349 --> 01:00:08,420 sick individual Sidney Cohen going you 1297 01:00:13,720 --> 01:00:11,359 know people say that the CIA you know 1298 01:00:15,039 --> 01:00:13,730 funded us and was in Bakula what do you 1299 01:00:17,499 --> 01:00:15,049 think about that he's asking the 1300 01:00:19,059 --> 01:00:17,509 question because John marks book about 1301 01:00:21,940 --> 01:00:19,069 The Manchurian Candidate has come out 1302 01:00:24,400 --> 01:00:21,950 well I'm sorry mr. Cohen but you know 1303 01:00:26,380 --> 01:00:24,410 the MKULTRA pay requisitions then got 1304 01:00:27,970 --> 01:00:26,390 released and you were identified as 1305 01:00:30,670 --> 01:00:27,980 being one of the people being funded 1306 01:00:32,710 --> 01:00:30,680 through the program so this question is 1307 01:00:35,349 --> 01:00:32,720 just a distraction he's trying to move 1308 01:00:36,759 --> 01:00:35,359 people away from the idea that well you 1309 01:00:38,829 --> 01:00:36,769 know I might have been actually guilty 1310 01:00:43,630 --> 01:00:38,839 against crimes crimes against humanity 1311 01:00:45,480 --> 01:00:43,640 um you know you know you talk about okay 1312 01:00:47,829 --> 01:00:45,490 we've got to 1313 01:00:49,359 --> 01:00:47,839 like with strassman and we shouldn't 1314 01:00:51,640 --> 01:00:49,369 really be working oh we should like give 1315 01:00:55,450 --> 01:00:51,650 him the benefit of the doubt Alex I just 1316 01:00:58,450 --> 01:00:55,460 strongly disagree until we get some 1317 01:01:00,880 --> 01:00:58,460 clarity hold on hold on I get your point 1318 01:01:03,730 --> 01:01:00,890 there but that's not real either I mean 1319 01:01:05,260 --> 01:01:03,740 everything you're saying is true so you 1320 01:01:07,359 --> 01:01:05,270 know put together the other pieces that 1321 01:01:07,990 --> 01:01:07,369 you're talking about with 911 I mean 1322 01:01:10,000 --> 01:01:08,000 come on 1323 01:01:12,010 --> 01:01:10,010 we've been at this for 17 years anyone 1324 01:01:15,400 --> 01:01:12,020 who thinks we're gonna get to the bottom 1325 01:01:17,890 --> 01:01:15,410 of 9/11 or someone's gonna come out and 1326 01:01:19,750 --> 01:01:17,900 tell the truth that guy that I don't I 1327 01:01:21,730 --> 01:01:19,760 haven't researched it enough to know if 1328 01:01:23,230 --> 01:01:21,740 the guy is for real but that YouTube 1329 01:01:27,309 --> 01:01:23,240 that was making the rounds in the last 1330 01:01:29,230 --> 01:01:27,319 couple months of a inside operative CIA 1331 01:01:30,880 --> 01:01:29,240 guy who says yeah here's how we brought 1332 01:01:32,500 --> 01:01:30,890 down building seven it was a controlled 1333 01:01:34,450 --> 01:01:32,510 demolition and it's a deathbed 1334 01:01:36,790 --> 01:01:34,460 confession which we know in the court of 1335 01:01:38,500 --> 01:01:36,800 law carries a lot more weight than a 1336 01:01:40,030 --> 01:01:38,510 regular confession so I don't know if 1337 01:01:42,130 --> 01:01:40,040 that's been debunked folks if it has I 1338 01:01:44,710 --> 01:01:42,140 apologize I've been meaning to research 1339 01:01:46,240 --> 01:01:44,720 that but I haven't but the like you 1340 01:01:48,520 --> 01:01:46,250 pointed out the pentagon thing you know 1341 01:01:51,970 --> 01:01:48,530 anyone who's close looks at the Pentagon 1342 01:01:53,770 --> 01:01:51,980 yeah it's like game over but come on 1343 01:01:58,359 --> 01:01:53,780 we're never gonna get to the bottom of 1344 01:02:00,790 --> 01:01:58,369 that so why no I don't like well I'm not 1345 01:02:03,490 --> 01:02:00,800 talking about I'm talking about from a 1346 01:02:05,410 --> 01:02:03,500 pragmatic practical standpoint I'm 1347 01:02:08,559 --> 01:02:05,420 saying we have to try and navigate all 1348 01:02:10,960 --> 01:02:08,569 this stuff the best that we can and I'm 1349 01:02:13,599 --> 01:02:10,970 just I'm just uncomfortable with the 1350 01:02:15,849 --> 01:02:13,609 assume that they're all dirty thing 1351 01:02:18,849 --> 01:02:15,859 because I think it can that can also 1352 01:02:21,880 --> 01:02:18,859 lead us down a path where we're just 1353 01:02:24,400 --> 01:02:21,890 create an echo chamber of confirming our 1354 01:02:26,290 --> 01:02:24,410 own beliefs so if you have something 1355 01:02:28,630 --> 01:02:26,300 about until we find out what's inside 1356 01:02:30,670 --> 01:02:28,640 the government this is all you know 1357 01:02:33,339 --> 01:02:30,680 angels dancing on the head of a pin who 1358 01:02:34,930 --> 01:02:33,349 knows I just I don't have a clue I don't 1359 01:02:36,490 --> 01:02:34,940 know if draftsman is dirty how would I 1360 01:02:38,589 --> 01:02:36,500 possibly know that I don't know I've 1361 01:02:41,920 --> 01:02:38,599 never studied his work it could well be 1362 01:02:45,960 --> 01:02:41,930 that is not but the point is we cannot 1363 01:02:49,660 --> 01:02:45,970 go forward at this particular time with 1364 01:02:54,130 --> 01:02:49,670 all the time Joe we're all going forward 1365 01:02:56,200 --> 01:02:54,140 all the time we're all let's see Alex 1366 01:02:57,579 --> 01:02:56,210 let's go forward to some clarity of what 1367 01:02:58,870 --> 01:02:57,589 exactly the government is doing because 1368 01:03:02,110 --> 01:02:58,880 here's my point 1369 01:03:05,260 --> 01:03:02,120 look this was all used against us once 1370 01:03:06,940 --> 01:03:05,270 right it was all used against us the sex 1371 01:03:09,670 --> 01:03:06,950 drugs and rock and roll culture was 1372 01:03:12,730 --> 01:03:09,680 artificial it was used against us it 1373 01:03:16,480 --> 01:03:12,740 really debased and damaged our culture 1374 01:03:20,020 --> 01:03:16,490 and so now as we you know hats it here 1375 01:03:22,990 --> 01:03:20,030 we have you know this new era new drugs 1376 01:03:26,830 --> 01:03:23,000 new research new government involvement 1377 01:03:29,400 --> 01:03:26,840 we just aren't in a position until we 1378 01:03:33,130 --> 01:03:29,410 know what is controlling the government 1379 01:03:35,800 --> 01:03:33,140 to trust these things they hurt us once 1380 01:03:38,560 --> 01:03:35,810 this time let's put a little scrutiny 1381 01:03:40,600 --> 01:03:38,570 and sunlight on these things and you 1382 01:03:42,370 --> 01:03:40,610 know it's it's like with Strassmann or 1383 01:03:44,650 --> 01:03:42,380 any of the people that are kind of 1384 01:03:46,630 --> 01:03:44,660 advocating sort of the Psychonauts right 1385 01:03:48,070 --> 01:03:46,640 that are wanting this you know let's go 1386 01:03:49,870 --> 01:03:48,080 into this area and try to do more 1387 01:03:52,120 --> 01:03:49,880 research here's what I would say to them 1388 01:03:56,500 --> 01:03:52,130 Alex you know what if you are really 1389 01:03:59,230 --> 01:03:56,510 ethical then what you should do is is is 1390 01:04:02,650 --> 01:03:59,240 not put the cart before the horse the 1391 01:04:04,450 --> 01:04:02,660 first step should be we've got to really 1392 01:04:06,790 --> 01:04:04,460 understand what the tradition of the 1393 01:04:09,250 --> 01:04:06,800 psychedelic movement is that's the first 1394 01:04:12,940 --> 01:04:09,260 thing we got to do we need informed 1395 01:04:15,820 --> 01:04:12,950 consent so before you start promoting 1396 01:04:17,590 --> 01:04:15,830 all of the advantages right spiritual 1397 01:04:21,610 --> 01:04:17,600 development that these drugs can bring 1398 01:04:24,940 --> 01:04:21,620 you've got to give the public the truth 1399 01:04:27,220 --> 01:04:24,950 about the history of all of them and the 1400 01:04:29,410 --> 01:04:27,230 truth about what the government did and 1401 01:04:31,450 --> 01:04:29,420 what what it was trying to do and what 1402 01:04:34,270 --> 01:04:31,460 sort of influence was trying to have if 1403 01:04:36,940 --> 01:04:34,280 we get there we will have informed 1404 01:04:38,500 --> 01:04:36,950 consent but if we if we don't get there 1405 01:04:40,090 --> 01:04:38,510 if we don't if we're sitting there 1406 01:04:43,090 --> 01:04:40,100 saying let's try it again 1407 01:04:45,880 --> 01:04:43,100 I'm sorry I just to me it's just it's 1408 01:04:47,800 --> 01:04:45,890 completely unethical until we get to the 1409 01:04:49,390 --> 01:04:47,810 bottom of what happened and who did it 1410 01:04:51,130 --> 01:04:49,400 and how it was designed and what the 1411 01:04:53,920 --> 01:04:51,140 purpose of all this stuff was we 1412 01:04:56,590 --> 01:04:53,930 shouldn't be trying to move forward with 1413 01:04:58,810 --> 01:04:56,600 with you know psychedelic drugs and 1414 01:05:00,250 --> 01:04:58,820 particularly drugs like the business 1415 01:05:02,350 --> 01:05:00,260 with Strassmann where he's getting 1416 01:05:05,560 --> 01:05:02,360 government funding man I would just say 1417 01:05:10,840 --> 01:05:05,570 that on its surface is is just a really 1418 01:05:11,620 --> 01:05:10,850 bad idea so let's stop pause and spend a 1419 01:05:13,720 --> 01:05:11,630 little bit of time 1420 01:05:16,270 --> 01:05:13,730 I'm getting an understanding of what 1421 01:05:18,730 --> 01:05:16,280 happened to us and then we'll know how 1422 01:05:20,860 --> 01:05:18,740 we can move forward you make a really 1423 01:05:23,050 --> 01:05:20,870 strong point and I love your point about 1424 01:05:25,270 --> 01:05:23,060 informed consent you know the other 1425 01:05:27,970 --> 01:05:25,280 angle I always come at these things from 1426 01:05:30,850 --> 01:05:27,980 and it's the spiritual perspective 1427 01:05:32,500 --> 01:05:30,860 because that's what this show skeptic oh 1428 01:05:36,760 --> 01:05:32,510 is about it's about following the data 1429 01:05:38,530 --> 01:05:36,770 being able to accept wherever that data 1430 01:05:40,510 --> 01:05:38,540 leads you and then it's also about 1431 01:05:42,670 --> 01:05:40,520 looking for the deeper conspiracy 1432 01:05:45,070 --> 01:05:42,680 because if you don't if you think the 1433 01:05:48,070 --> 01:05:45,080 data alone is telling you the story 1434 01:05:49,840 --> 01:05:48,080 you're liable to be bamboozled but the 1435 01:05:51,700 --> 01:05:49,850 third component for me is to look for 1436 01:05:53,800 --> 01:05:51,710 the deeper spirituality because I think 1437 01:05:55,810 --> 01:05:53,810 there is the evidence has led me to 1438 01:05:58,270 --> 01:05:55,820 believe there is a larger truth at hand 1439 01:06:00,970 --> 01:05:58,280 that is beyond these people who are 1440 01:06:04,330 --> 01:06:00,980 playing these games these horrific games 1441 01:06:06,430 --> 01:06:04,340 these very sick and evil games I think 1442 01:06:08,590 --> 01:06:06,440 there's a larger truth beyond that maybe 1443 01:06:10,180 --> 01:06:08,600 some people agree or disagree but 1444 01:06:14,230 --> 01:06:10,190 bringing it all the way back full circle 1445 01:06:16,240 --> 01:06:14,240 I mean I know you don't like Ellen watts 1446 01:06:20,380 --> 01:06:16,250 but I love the quote and I brought it up 1447 01:06:21,280 --> 01:06:20,390 at my show when you get the message hang 1448 01:06:24,160 --> 01:06:21,290 up the phone 1449 01:06:28,510 --> 01:06:24,170 so anyone who's interested in being 1450 01:06:30,580 --> 01:06:28,520 psycho not my point is you really don't 1451 01:06:33,430 --> 01:06:30,590 undercut the message yet you don't get 1452 01:06:37,630 --> 01:06:33,440 the message about what being a better 1453 01:06:40,570 --> 01:06:37,640 person is about loving everyone about 1454 01:06:43,390 --> 01:06:40,580 the first rules of every wisdom 1455 01:06:46,000 --> 01:06:43,400 tradition tell the truth hey that's the 1456 01:06:49,540 --> 01:06:46,010 hard part the hard part isn't going on 1457 01:06:52,570 --> 01:06:49,550 some expanded consciousness adventure 1458 01:06:55,690 --> 01:06:52,580 the hard part is coming back in living 1459 01:06:58,380 --> 01:06:55,700 your life in a way that is congruent 1460 01:07:00,730 --> 01:06:58,390 with these values that that we all 1461 01:07:02,170 --> 01:07:00,740 resonate with and say that's really how 1462 01:07:04,600 --> 01:07:02,180 we're supposed to believe live our life 1463 01:07:07,350 --> 01:07:04,610 so I never bring that up on this show 1464 01:07:09,820 --> 01:07:07,360 but since you so strongly made the case 1465 01:07:12,640 --> 01:07:09,830 against psychedelics and against 1466 01:07:14,380 --> 01:07:12,650 entheogens I'm not going to make that 1467 01:07:17,290 --> 01:07:14,390 same case because I think people can 1468 01:07:19,680 --> 01:07:17,300 find space in there that probably makes 1469 01:07:23,710 --> 01:07:19,690 sense inside of some greater 1470 01:07:27,040 --> 01:07:23,720 spirituality but I which your 1471 01:07:29,470 --> 01:07:27,050 extreme caution and ask why is that 1472 01:07:31,960 --> 01:07:29,480 really why is that really necessary what 1473 01:07:35,050 --> 01:07:31,970 do you really hope to accomplish by that 1474 01:07:39,970 --> 01:07:35,060 if you truly are looking for this deep 1475 01:07:43,839 --> 01:07:39,980 spirituality yeah I mean I have nothing 1476 01:07:46,839 --> 01:07:43,849 against psychedelic drugs for spiritual 1477 01:07:52,210 --> 01:07:46,849 exploration I you know in general 1478 01:07:54,940 --> 01:07:52,220 nothing whatsoever I really just want to 1479 01:07:57,070 --> 01:07:54,950 focus right now on how they've been used 1480 01:08:00,190 --> 01:07:57,080 who used them what was the purpose of 1481 01:08:01,510 --> 01:08:00,200 bringing him into her culture and you 1482 01:08:04,599 --> 01:08:01,520 know as I said I just want to have 1483 01:08:07,870 --> 01:08:04,609 informed consent going forward with 1484 01:08:10,440 --> 01:08:07,880 Strassmann you know if he was here I 1485 01:08:15,040 --> 01:08:10,450 would just say stop what you're doing 1486 01:08:18,720 --> 01:08:15,050 take your energies and help try to 1487 01:08:23,280 --> 01:08:18,730 determine what really wasn't back of the 1488 01:08:25,780 --> 01:08:23,290 leg Gordon Watson and Tim Leary and 1489 01:08:29,620 --> 01:08:25,790 Sydney Cowan let's get to the truth 1490 01:08:31,479 --> 01:08:29,630 about this just remember this when they 1491 01:08:33,820 --> 01:08:31,489 asked for the document Helms just 1492 01:08:37,329 --> 01:08:33,830 laughed at him and destroyed him he 1493 01:08:38,979 --> 01:08:37,339 wasn't even fired right and and this was 1494 01:08:41,200 --> 01:08:38,989 when Nate when the Church Commission 1495 01:08:43,959 --> 01:08:41,210 asked for the documents they had 1496 01:08:46,200 --> 01:08:43,969 fatalities citizens that have been given 1497 01:08:49,059 --> 01:08:46,210 LSD without their knowledge who had died 1498 01:08:52,420 --> 01:08:49,069 right this was these were the conditions 1499 01:08:55,420 --> 01:08:52,430 that that the Congress was demanding the 1500 01:08:57,010 --> 01:08:55,430 documents the only reason this stuff 1501 01:08:58,570 --> 01:08:57,020 comes out it says they were also doing 1502 01:09:00,340 --> 01:08:58,580 it up in Canada and they have different 1503 01:09:01,630 --> 01:09:00,350 freedom of information laws and they 1504 01:09:04,180 --> 01:09:01,640 were I would take them to court in 1505 01:09:06,700 --> 01:09:04,190 Canada they were able to keep the seal 1506 01:09:09,760 --> 01:09:06,710 on it in the u.s. exactly so anyway I 1507 01:09:13,420 --> 01:09:09,770 just I just want to get the full 1508 01:09:16,150 --> 01:09:13,430 disclosure before we go forward because 1509 01:09:17,950 --> 01:09:16,160 I am worried that they're going to that 1510 01:09:20,019 --> 01:09:17,960 they you know are gonna try to do it 1511 01:09:21,849 --> 01:09:20,029 again and I think we need to be nervous 1512 01:09:24,010 --> 01:09:21,859 about that because they didn't get 1513 01:09:26,800 --> 01:09:24,020 caught the first time you see they 1514 01:09:30,190 --> 01:09:26,810 didn't really get caught the they became 1515 01:09:31,599 --> 01:09:30,200 awareness and then they simply told us 1516 01:09:33,610 --> 01:09:31,609 that they weren't going to use these 1517 01:09:35,410 --> 01:09:33,620 kinds of techniques anymore but you can 1518 01:09:36,099 --> 01:09:35,420 just see from the example I gave about 1519 01:09:39,010 --> 01:09:36,109 SR 1520 01:09:42,479 --> 01:09:39,020 that they they could care less about you 1521 01:09:45,999 --> 01:09:42,489 know the democratically controlled 1522 01:09:48,370 --> 01:09:46,009 components of democracy right they have 1523 01:09:50,499 --> 01:09:48,380 the they think those are just a joke 1524 01:09:54,330 --> 01:09:50,509 they can circumvent those anytime they 1525 01:09:58,840 --> 01:09:54,340 want the deep state oleg ARCIC control 1526 01:10:00,760 --> 01:09:58,850 is what has the power and so we when we 1527 01:10:03,160 --> 01:10:00,770 look at strassman I think we have to 1528 01:10:07,030 --> 01:10:03,170 have a question mark and go hey is this 1529 01:10:09,520 --> 01:10:07,040 guy you know part of that and and we 1530 01:10:12,070 --> 01:10:09,530 don't know until we get more information 1531 01:10:14,320 --> 01:10:12,080 and Strassman if he is you know an 1532 01:10:15,760 --> 01:10:14,330 ethical individual I think he would look 1533 01:10:18,550 --> 01:10:15,770 at this data and go you know there right 1534 01:10:19,899 --> 01:10:18,560 and I'm not gonna go forward I'm going 1535 01:10:21,459 --> 01:10:19,909 to stop and we're gonna really try to 1536 01:10:25,709 --> 01:10:21,469 get to the bottom of all this because I 1537 01:10:29,229 --> 01:10:25,719 can see that it's easy to look at me as 1538 01:10:31,240 --> 01:10:29,239 possibly a reader a reiteration of what 1539 01:10:33,399 --> 01:10:31,250 was done in the 50s and 60s 1540 01:10:36,070 --> 01:10:33,409 Joe for folks who are interested in 1541 01:10:38,560 --> 01:10:36,080 pursuing this further in terms of your 1542 01:10:41,530 --> 01:10:38,570 thoughts on it where would you direct 1543 01:10:43,209 --> 01:10:41,540 them are you are you gonna write a book 1544 01:10:45,760 --> 01:10:43,219 on this you really should you've come 1545 01:10:47,530 --> 01:10:45,770 down a half mile becoming essence called 1546 01:10:51,070 --> 01:10:47,540 um the secret language of the oligarchs 1547 01:10:54,090 --> 01:10:51,080 and I want to notice maybe 60 days away 1548 01:10:56,700 --> 01:10:54,100 I'll you'll get the first copy and 1549 01:10:58,750 --> 01:10:56,710 basically it just it does literary 1550 01:11:01,510 --> 01:10:58,760 deconstruction of brave new world 1551 01:11:03,939 --> 01:11:01,520 Huxley's book and then it shows that 1552 01:11:06,479 --> 01:11:03,949 this isn't a fiction or a warning but 1553 01:11:10,810 --> 01:11:06,489 rather this is a plan that's being 1554 01:11:12,850 --> 01:11:10,820 implemented and I show that one thing 1555 01:11:15,340 --> 01:11:12,860 the oligarchs do fortunately is they 1556 01:11:17,320 --> 01:11:15,350 have a kind of sense of humor they have 1557 01:11:19,649 --> 01:11:17,330 a literary genre that they communicate 1558 01:11:23,770 --> 01:11:19,659 with and I give examples of modern 1559 01:11:26,740 --> 01:11:23,780 writers who are using this um this 1560 01:11:30,570 --> 01:11:26,750 literary genre and I just try to you 1561 01:11:34,060 --> 01:11:30,580 know give people what I think are useful 1562 01:11:37,270 --> 01:11:34,070 informations to you know have a more 1563 01:11:39,750 --> 01:11:37,280 effective democracy this could be really 1564 01:11:44,890 --> 01:11:39,760 interesting to see how that book is 1565 01:11:47,709 --> 01:11:44,900 received among your audience because I 1566 01:11:48,409 --> 01:11:47,719 just get the sense that a lot of the 1567 01:11:52,330 --> 01:11:48,419 folks who 1568 01:11:55,219 --> 01:11:52,340 have been with you and stayed with you 1569 01:11:57,080 --> 01:11:55,229 might find a little bit of upset with 1570 01:12:00,229 --> 01:11:57,090 that kind of thing but we'll see that's 1571 01:12:02,989 --> 01:12:00,239 big interesting well if I don't then you 1572 01:12:06,139 --> 01:12:02,999 know I haven't done my job I mean you 1573 01:12:13,000 --> 01:12:06,149 know this is really you know I mean yeah 1574 01:12:17,629 --> 01:12:13,010 I I just try to understand my world and 1575 01:12:19,939 --> 01:12:17,639 write about you know forces and you know 1576 01:12:22,100 --> 01:12:19,949 things which are hidden sometimes 1577 01:12:24,949 --> 01:12:22,110 sometimes not but that I think are 1578 01:12:26,959 --> 01:12:24,959 valuable to people I mean really all I 1579 01:12:30,229 --> 01:12:26,969 really want to do alex is try to help 1580 01:12:32,719 --> 01:12:30,239 have a more effective democracy I mean I 1581 01:12:35,359 --> 01:12:32,729 the oligarchs you know you talked about 1582 01:12:37,580 --> 01:12:35,369 sort of the the reasons that you know 1583 01:12:39,469 --> 01:12:37,590 they would want to have power and some 1584 01:12:43,159 --> 01:12:39,479 of these can be seen is actually you 1585 01:12:45,439 --> 01:12:43,169 know inevitable or even beneficial but I 1586 01:12:46,399 --> 01:12:45,449 just see democracy now is very very 1587 01:12:48,830 --> 01:12:46,409 ineffective 1588 01:12:51,229 --> 01:12:48,840 we're lied to we're given you know 1589 01:12:54,020 --> 01:12:51,239 candidates that are controlled by secret 1590 01:12:56,629 --> 01:12:54,030 societies and so our democracy just 1591 01:13:00,229 --> 01:12:56,639 isn't effective and I think that when 1592 01:13:02,689 --> 01:13:00,239 when you do your job and I do mine that 1593 01:13:05,839 --> 01:13:02,699 democracy benefits that you have a more 1594 01:13:08,929 --> 01:13:05,849 informed citizenry more skeptical more 1595 01:13:11,299 --> 01:13:08,939 able to ask the right questions and then 1596 01:13:14,810 --> 01:13:11,309 hope to heaven that we start getting 1597 01:13:17,359 --> 01:13:14,820 better candidates as a result of it our 1598 01:13:19,279 --> 01:13:17,369 guest again has been Josaphat wolf I 1599 01:13:21,049 --> 01:13:19,289 just understood that he's coming up with 1600 01:13:22,609 --> 01:13:21,059 a new book secret language of the 1601 01:13:24,949 --> 01:13:22,619 oligarchs can't wait to see that 1602 01:13:27,679 --> 01:13:24,959 but we've been mainly talking about a 1603 01:13:31,100 --> 01:13:27,689 lot of the work that you'll find at your 1604 01:13:33,529 --> 01:13:31,110 website right post Flav iana.org I'll 1605 01:13:36,229 --> 01:13:33,539 link that up in the show notes Joe it's 1606 01:13:36,859 --> 01:13:36,239 been great as always having you on thank 1607 01:13:39,589 --> 01:13:36,869 you Alex 1608 01:13:41,330 --> 01:13:39,599 talk to you soon I hope thanks again to 1609 01:13:44,120 --> 01:13:41,340 Joseph Atwell for joining me today on 1610 01:13:46,850 --> 01:13:44,130 skeptic oh one question I'd have to tee 1611 01:13:49,699 --> 01:13:46,860 up from this interview how much should 1612 01:13:52,899 --> 01:13:49,709 we be concerned about the government's 1613 01:13:55,879 --> 01:13:52,909 past present and future interest in 1614 01:13:58,219 --> 01:13:55,889 manipulating consciousness through 1615 01:13:59,929 --> 01:13:58,229 psychedelics so as you heard you know 1616 01:14:02,240 --> 01:13:59,939 Joe and I squared off on some of these 1617 01:14:04,910 --> 01:14:02,250 issues and I disagree with some of his 1618 01:14:07,010 --> 01:14:04,920 points but again in typical kind of Joe 1619 01:14:10,270 --> 01:14:07,020 at-will style I think he's revealed 1620 01:14:12,800 --> 01:14:10,280 something extremely important that 1621 01:14:15,920 --> 01:14:12,810 overshadows any minor disagreements I 1622 01:14:18,260 --> 01:14:15,930 might have with him and that is what the 1623 01:14:21,530 --> 01:14:18,270 hell is the deep state doing trying to 1624 01:14:23,540 --> 01:14:21,540 manipulate consciousness with drugs so I 1625 01:14:25,300 --> 01:14:23,550 asked the question but I kind of tipped 1626 01:14:27,980 --> 01:14:25,310 my hand in terms of where I'm leaning 1627 01:14:30,980 --> 01:14:27,990 love to hear your input your thought 1628 01:14:33,020 --> 01:14:30,990 your challenge to anything that came up 1629 01:14:35,270
