1 00:00:07,430 --> 00:00:04,309 on this episode of skeptico 2 00:00:08,230 --> 00:00:07,440 a show about making our puzzle pieces 3 00:00:09,990 --> 00:00:08,240 fit 4 00:00:11,990 --> 00:00:10,000 it's almost like a reflection in the 5 00:00:14,230 --> 00:00:12,000 external world from an internal 6 00:00:15,990 --> 00:00:14,240 experience i've heard many people and i 7 00:00:17,750 --> 00:00:16,000 resonate with this that when they have 8 00:00:19,670 --> 00:00:17,760 psychedelic experiences or near-death 9 00:00:22,230 --> 00:00:19,680 experiences it almost feels like they're 10 00:00:24,870 --> 00:00:22,240 given this internal map or this internal 11 00:00:26,950 --> 00:00:24,880 puzzle and they want to 12 00:00:29,830 --> 00:00:26,960 find all the pieces out here 13 00:00:31,830 --> 00:00:29,840 that match up with that internal puzzle 14 00:00:34,630 --> 00:00:31,840 that's andy rouse from the deep share 15 00:00:36,870 --> 00:00:34,640 podcast i have a great chat coming up 16 00:00:39,270 --> 00:00:36,880 with him we did kind of a swap cast 17 00:00:41,270 --> 00:00:39,280 thing and i thought it was great so 18 00:00:44,869 --> 00:00:41,280 we're gonna do it again i think we left 19 00:00:47,190 --> 00:00:44,879 some really intriguing loose ends that 20 00:00:50,069 --> 00:00:47,200 will might tie up in the future but in 21 00:00:51,350 --> 00:00:50,079 the meantime we rolled right into this 22 00:00:53,189 --> 00:00:51,360 one so 23 00:00:55,990 --> 00:00:53,199 i don't think much of an introduction is 24 00:00:59,029 --> 00:00:56,000 necessary here we go andy from deep 25 00:01:01,110 --> 00:00:59,039 shear podcast 26 00:01:02,869 --> 00:01:01,120 i'm probably going to rattle your cage 27 00:01:05,509 --> 00:01:02,879 at some point maybe you'll rattle mine 28 00:01:07,830 --> 00:01:05,519 but what i really hope is that you'll 29 00:01:11,109 --> 00:01:07,840 kind of fill in some gaps for me because 30 00:01:13,190 --> 00:01:11,119 this is vice versa vice versa my friend 31 00:01:14,710 --> 00:01:13,200 so i sent you this survey and you were 32 00:01:16,950 --> 00:01:14,720 nice enough to fill it out and your 33 00:01:19,830 --> 00:01:16,960 answers are quite brilliant and i'm not 34 00:01:21,670 --> 00:01:19,840 just saying that i i very very deep i'm 35 00:01:22,220 --> 00:01:21,680 like man i knew i was

00:01:37,749 --> 00:01:34,880 get to talk to in this community uh what 43 00:01:40,149 --> 00:01:37,759 i really admire about you is your 44 00:01:41,109 --> 00:01:40,159 drive to you just never let

00:01:50,069 --> 00:01:46,880 non-confrontational 49 00:01:51,030 --> 00:01:50,079 and i need a little bit of influence to 50 00:01:52,870 --> 00:01:51,040 really 51 00:01:55,190 --> 00:01:52,880 get

00:02:07,670 --> 00:02:06,000 it's tricky isn't it because it is 58 00:02:09,350 --> 00:02:07,680 yeah you don't want to cut off a 59 00:02:11,430 --> 00:02:09,360 conversation entirely you don't want to 60 00:02:13,190 --> 00:02:11,440 like alienate someone 61 00:02:14,710 --> 00:02:13,200 you don't want to be a prick but 62 00:02:16,390 --> 00:02:14,720 sometimes that's what's needed right i 63 00:02:18,710 --> 00:02:16,400 listened to a great conversation that 64 00:02:20,790 --> 00:02:18,720 you had well it was starting to be a 65 00:02:23,670 --> 00:02:20,800 great conversation from like

off the top of my head but she 69 00:02:31,270 --> 00:02:29,040 uh 70 00:02:33,509 --> 00:02:31,280 made a million excuses how nothing was 71 00:02:35,589 --> 00:02:33,519 working and she just had to cut off the 72 00:02:37,990 --> 00:02:35,599 conversation and you were drilling her 73 00:02:39,670 --> 00:02:38,000 you were quoting her own book and she 74 00:02:43,110 --> 00:02:39,680 couldn't back up what she was claiming 75 00:02:44,150 --> 00:02:43,120 it was it was just classic 76 00:02:46,309 --> 00:02:44,160 well 77 00:02:48,790 --> 00:02:46,319 there's so many jumping off points for 78 00:02:51,350 --> 00:02:48,800 that you know because like one of the 79 00:02:53,190 --> 00:02:51,360 things about like that interview and 80 00:02:55,830 --> 00:02:53,200 what people have kind of 81 00:02:58,550 --> 00:02:55,840 said about skeptico and there is some 82 00:03:01,270 --> 00:02:58,560 truth to it because it always happens 83 00:03:03,350 --> 00:03:01,280 for all of us you know

00:03:26,869 --> 00:03:24,239 confronted with hey this is this is a 94 00:03:28,470 --> 00:03:26,879 reality that that you know 95 00:03:31,030 --> 00:03:28,480 that you have to accept you have to at 96 00:03:34,229 --> 00:03:31,040 least deal with right right can we pause 97 00:03:35,830 --> 00:03:34,239 for one second sure no problem sorry 98 00:03:38,390 --> 00:03:35,840 no worries i'll take that time to 99 00:03:39,910 --> 00:03:38,400 introduce the show hey everybody welcome 100 00:03:41,589 --> 00:03:39,920 back to the deep share 101 00:03:44,390 --> 00:03:41,599 this morning i have 102 00:03:45,190 --> 00:03:44,400 alex sicaris from skeptico with me and 103 00:03:47,030 --> 00:03:45,200 i've been waiting to have this 104 00:03:49,589 --> 00:03:47,040 conversation for a while 105 00:03:51,350 --> 00:03:49,599 uh alex is the author of skeptico of 106 00:03:53,270 --> 00:03:51,360 course he's also the author of why 107 00:03:55,030 --> 00:03:53,280 science is wrong 108 00:03:57,750 --> 00:03:55,040 about almost everything 109 00:03:59,589 --> 00:03:57,760 um it's it's a pleasure to have him here 110 00:04:02,070 --> 00:03:59,599 because i've been following his work for 111 00:04:03,990 --> 00:04:02,080 so long and he's interested in so many 112 00:04:06,470 --> 00:04:04,000 of the topics that i find fascinating 113 00:04:08,949 --> 00:04:06,480 like near-death experience you know 114 00:04:10,710 --> 00:04:08,959 extra sensory procession 115 00:04:13,750 --> 00:04:10,720 perceptions and 116 00:04:16,310 --> 00:04:13,760 experiences of that nature but um you 117 00:04:18,229 --> 00:04:16,320 know alex is interested in a lot of 118 00:04:19,590 --> 00:04:18,239 different topics as am i so we're 119 00:04:21,909 --> 00:04:19,600 probably going to get into a number of 120 00:04:23,350 --> 00:04:21,919 different things that um don't 121 00:04:25,270 --> 00:04:23,360 necessarily relate to near-death 122 00:04:27,030 --> 00:04:25,280 experience but as i've told him off the 123 00:04:29,270 --> 00:04:27,040 air i think 124 00:04:32,390 --> 00:04:29,280 it's natural for us to 125 00:04:34,710 --> 00:04:32,400 talk about the very material conspiracy 126 00:04:37,110 --> 00:04:34,720 theories that we get into and find 127 00:04:38,150 --> 00:04:37,120 interesting and it naturally moves us 128 00:04:40,469 --> 00:04:38,160 towards 129 00:04:42,550 --> 00:04:40,479 that more personal 130 00:04:43,350 --> 00:04:42,560 conversation about consciousness 131 00:04:45,909 --> 00:04:43,360 so 132 00:04:47,909 --> 00:04:45,919 i hope you guys have a great time 133 00:04:51,510 --> 00:04:47,919 listening to this conversation with me 134 00:04:53,270 --> 00:04:51,520 and alex and uh alex has returned 135 00:04:55,430 --> 00:04:53,280 has managed to 136

another thing 142 00:05:09,430 --> 00:05:07,199 i don't even normally do i like barely 143 00:05:11,749 --> 00:05:09,440 give intros just because i'm caught up 144 00:05:14,469 --> 00:05:11,759 in the

00:05:31,990 --> 00:05:30,479 you know 152 00:05:32,950 --> 00:05:32,000 in what we were talking about before 153 00:05:34,629 --> 00:05:32,960 because 154 00:05:36,230 --> 00:05:34,639 one of the things that the way i put it 155 00:05:38,070 --> 00:05:36,240 is you know right and you understood 156 00:05:39,270 --> 00:05:38,080 right away because you go yep and it's 157 00:05:42,629 --> 00:05:39,280 like 158 00:05:44,310 --> 00:05:42,639 we wind up in our silos where we're you 159 00:05:45,749 --> 00:05:44,320 know just kind of talking to each other 160 00:05:49,189 --> 00:05:45,759 and everything makes sense and it's 161 00:05:52,150 --> 00:05:49,199 coherent and then somebody comes in 162 00:05:53,749 --> 00:05:52,160 outside you know and like so my thing 163 00:05:56,870 --> 00:05:53,759 one of my things 164 00:05:58,230 --> 00:05:56,880 is ufos and e.t along with near-death 165 00:05:59,990 --> 00:05:58,240 experience along with out-of-body 166 00:06:01,590 --> 00:06:00,000 experience along with evil and along 167 00:06:02,550 --> 00:06:01,600 with you know 168 00:06:05,189 --> 00:06:02,560 uh 169 00:06:07,270 --> 00:06:05,199 all that stuff so every time somebody 170 00:06:09,990 --> 00:06:07,280 gets settled i'm the guy who's going 171 00:06:11,590 --> 00:06:10,000 wait a minute you're in your silo what 172 00:06:13,830 --> 00:06:11,600 happens when you come out of your silo 173 00:06:16,629 --> 00:06:13,840 and look at this other stuff 174 00:06:18,870 --> 00:06:16,639 you're nodding so you have i appreciate 175 00:06:20,710 --> 00:06:18,880 that yes i think uh you know 176 00:06:22,870 --> 00:06:20,720 subconsciously you probably influenced 177 00:06:25,110 --> 00:06:22,880 me in some way to to uh take that 178 00:06:25,830 --> 00:06:25,120 approach confidently at times because 179 00:06:27,590 --> 00:06:25,840 it's 180 00:06:29,590 --> 00:06:27,600 yeah i i kind of try to throw a wrench 181 00:06:31,270 --> 00:06:29,600 in the spokes well i don't try to but i 182 00:06:32,070 --> 00:06:31,280 have the wrenches and i have to throw 183 00:06:33,749 --> 00:06:32,080 them 184 00:06:35,990 --> 00:06:33,759 you know i'm sure you can relate to that 185 00:06:37,670 --> 00:06:36,000 because sometimes it's like you know 186 00:06:39,590 --> 00:06:37,680 well i strongly feel that everyone in 187 00:06:41,270 --> 00:06:39,600 this community has a piece of the puzzle 188 00:06:43,029 --> 00:06:41,280 to offer but sometimes they don't even 189 00:06:45,029 --> 00:06:43,039 understand their own puzzle i think a 190 00:06:47,909 --> 00:06:45,039 lot of us need each other to kind of 191 00:06:50,469 --> 00:06:47,919 shine the the lights in different ways 192 00:06:52,950 --> 00:06:50,479 on each other's puzzle pieces to kind of 193 00:06:55,110 --> 00:06:52,960 see what that puzzle piece really means 194 00:06:57,270 --> 00:06:55,120 and where it really fits you know people 195 00:06:59,830 --> 00:06:57,280 say demons and angels but 196 00:07:02,390 --> 00:06:59,840 then again you could say depression or 197 00:07:05,350 --> 00:07:02,400 or confidence you know it's it's a 198 00:07:07,350 --> 00:07:05,360 gradient of experience that the more we 199 00:07:08,790 --> 00:07:07,360 accept into the world view the more we 200 00:07:11,270 --> 00:07:08,800 can kind of 201 00:07:13,749 --> 00:07:11,280 see what's really going on i try not to 202 00:07:15,830 --> 00:07:13,759 throw too much out i want to keep as 203 00:07:18,070 --> 00:07:15,840 much in as possible and see 204 00:07:19,430 --> 00:07:18,080 where something might be more metaphor 205 00:07:21,350 --> 00:07:19,440 than than 206 00:07:23,189 --> 00:07:21,360 dense physicality perhaps you know 207 00:07:24,950 --> 00:07:23,199 especially in this realm that we're 208 00:07:28,309 --> 00:07:24,960 talking about near-death experience and 209 00:07:30,950 --> 00:07:28,319 all that if that made any sense alex 210 00:07:33,029 --> 00:07:30,960 it makes total sense the good side and 211 00:07:35,670 --> 00:07:33,039 bad side of that is it kind of does 212 00:07:38,070 --> 00:07:35,680 bring exactly what we're talking about 213 00:07:39,830 --> 00:07:38,080 into focus and in terms of the challenge 214 00:07:42,230 --> 00:07:39,840 there because like i don't necessarily 215 00:07:44,469 --> 00:07:42,240 agree with uh with what you're saying i 216 00:07:46,790 --> 00:07:44,479 always come to the like one 217 00:07:47,510 --> 00:07:46,800 way i put it is like a litmus test you 218 00:07:49,029 --> 00:07:47,520 know 219 00:07:51,830 --> 00:07:49,039 like at every 220 00:07:54,309 --> 00:07:51,840 angle that you go down you know 221 00:07:55,909 --> 00:07:54,319 angels demons depression 222 00:08:00,390 --> 00:07:55,919 you know uh 223 00:08:03,110 --> 00:08:00,400 litmus test so i i i'm not quick to just 224 00:08:05,990 --> 00:08:03,120 brush past even the point that well 225 00:08:06,950 --> 00:08:06,000 everyone has a piece of the puzzle 226 00:08:10,309 --> 00:08:06,960 no 227 00:08:14,629 --> 00:08:10,319 but 228 00:08:16,469 --> 00:08:14,639 also going with that 229 00:08:18,070 --> 00:08:16,479 or where we can take it that i'd so 230 00:08:19,270 --> 00:08:18,080 totally agree with and this is where i 231 00:08:20,950 --> 00:08:19,280 need to grow 232 00:08:22,950 --> 00:08:20,960 is 233 00:08:25,350 --> 00:08:22,960 like you are 234 00:08:27,510 --> 00:08:25,360 a really cool dude i can tell 235 00:08:29,909 --> 00:08:27,520 no i could tell i'm

science and you go it's uh it's a method 248 00:09:00,870 --> 00:08:58,959 it's not a position statement it's 249 00:09:03,750 --> 00:09:00,880 inextricably linked to scientific 250 00:09:05,670 --> 00:09:03,760 materialism like bing already 251 00:09:07,110 --> 00:09:05,680 everything is consciousness you write 252 00:09:09,829 --> 00:09:07,120 that's what you wrote as an answer the 253 00:09:12,790 --> 00:09:09,839 paradox somehow allows this experience 254 00:09:15,590 --> 00:09:12,800 brilliant so i'm like i'm all over this 255 00:09:17,829 --> 00:09:15,600 guy in terms of we're like bros 256 00:09:20,070 --> 00:09:17,839 on the other hand 257 00:09:23,670 --> 00:09:20,080 so i don't want to 258 00:09:25,030 --> 00:09:23,680 alienate you or piss you off because 259

--> 00:09:32,720 talk about the box saga 263 00:09:37,590 --> 00:09:34,560 i'm gonna go man that sounds like 264 00:09:39,990 --> 00:09:37,600 [\h__\h] to me nice thank god finally 265 00:09:42,070 --> 00:09:40,000 someone that at least comments because 266 00:09:44,230 --> 00:09:42,080 it's either this is too weird i don't 267 00:09:45,990 --> 00:09:44,240 even want to touch it or wow this is 268 00:09:47,430 --> 00:09:46,000 really interesting and kind of just 269 00:09:48,790 --> 00:09:47,440 following along with what i'm saying 270 00:09:50,630 --> 00:09:48,800 about it 271 00:09:52,710 --> 00:09:50,640 i would yeah that's a different threat 272 00:09:55,670 --> 00:09:52,720 altogether but yeah i am looking for 273 00:09:58,070 --> 00:09:55,680 debates about that because i don't like 274 00:10:00,070 --> 00:09:58,080 what i'm finding necessarily in some 275 00:10:01,910 --> 00:10:00,080 areas of that story so i want to know 276 00:10:03,990 --> 00:10:01,920 what's going on there and 277 00:10:06,150 --> 00:10:04,000 why it fits so well in some places you 278 00:10:07,670 --> 00:10:06,160 know but again that's another thread 279 00:10:09,190 --> 00:10:07,680 altogether but a great example that you 280 00:10:11,509 --> 00:10:09,200 brought up 281 00:10:13,509 --> 00:10:11,519 and it's a great thread to go down 282 00:10:15,190 --> 00:10:13,519 because like 283 00:10:17,269 --> 00:10:15,200 we'll just go down it right now because 284 00:10:18,870 --> 00:10:17,279 your listeners know about it we'll just 285 00:10:23,030 --> 00:10:18,880 do a 30-second 286 00:10:25,990 --> 00:10:23,040 flyby is i'd say that the reason 287 00:10:29,110 --> 00:10:26,000 why it resonates the reason why it's 288 00:10:32,470 --> 00:10:29,120 true is because it's well crafted it's 289 00:10:35,990 --> 00:10:32,480 kind of like christianity 290 00:10:38,630 --> 00:10:36,000 why it [\h__\h] works so well as a social 291 00:10:40,949 --> 00:10:38,640 engineering mind control project is 292 00:10:43,430 --> 00:10:40,959 because a lot of it is really solid from 293 00:10:45,509 --> 00:10:43,440 a spiritual perspective but from a 294 00:10:48,870 --> 00:10:45,519 historical perspective it really kind of 295 00:10:50,069 --> 00:10:48,880 breaks down and then from mind control 296 00:10:51,990 --> 00:10:50,079 how do i 297 00:10:54,790 --> 00:10:52,000 use this to 298 00:10:56,870 --> 00:10:54,800 kind of shepherd people into my little 299 00:10:58,470 --> 00:10:56,880 club there's all these other things 300 00:11:00,790 --> 00:10:58,480 built then so 301 00:11:03,190 --> 00:11:00,800 the fact that it's brilliant 302 00:11:05,110 --> 00:11:03,200 just for millions and millions of people 303 00:11:07,269 --> 00:11:05,120 it's still something they can't get over 304 00:11:10,230 --> 00:11:07,279 they're like no but i had this brilliant 305 00:11:12,550 --> 00:11:10,240 spiritual experience through my practice 306 00:11:14,870 --> 00:11:12,560 of christianity i'm like of course you 307 00:11:17,030 --> 00:11:14,880 did or like if you say you know the bach 308 00:11:18,630 --> 00:11:17,040 saga it really resonates and isn't this 309 00:11:20,710 --> 00:11:18,640 true and interesting and what about the 310 00:11:21,590 --> 00:11:20,720 connection to language and sound like 311 00:11:26,630 --> 00:11:21,600 yeah 312 00:11:30,389 --> 00:11:26,640 it together but that doesn't mean it's 313 00:11:32,310 --> 00:11:30,399 real either interesting yeah well i 314 00:11:33,430 --> 00:11:32,320 really appreciate that and i think that 315 00:11:35,829 --> 00:11:33,440 maybe 316 00:11:37,430 --> 00:11:35,839 down the line somewhere if i were to do 317 00:11:39,350 --> 00:11:37,440 a like a proper 318 00:11:41,430 --> 00:11:39,360 debate form with like notes and 319 00:11:43,990 --> 00:11:41,440 everything maybe you'd like to be a part 320 00:11:45,910 --> 00:11:44,000 of it i don't know i mean it's kind of 321 00:11:47,910 --> 00:11:45,920 it's a rabbit hole to go down even just 322 00:11:49,110 --> 00:11:47,920 to understand enough to debate it of 323 00:11:51,350 --> 00:11:49,120 course but 324 00:11:53,430 --> 00:11:51,360 but yeah that's that's i'm i'm glad that 325 00:11:56,629 --> 00:11:53,440 you have that perspective because often 326 00:11:58,629 --> 00:11:56,639 i don't find that you know 327 00:12:01,110 --> 00:11:58,639 so it helps but um yeah the language 328 00:12:04,310 --> 00:12:01,120 stuff in itself um yeah i think where it 329 00:12:07,110 --> 00:12:04,320 resonates for me is how it kind of 330 00:12:08,710 --> 00:12:07,120 so let me put it this way 331 00:12:12,550 --> 00:12:08,720 i do 332 00:12:14,870 --> 00:12:12,560 think something about it feels like it's 333 00:12:15,990 --> 00:12:14,880 the other end of the stick 334 00:12:17,509 --> 00:12:16,000 like 335 00:12:18,949 --> 00:12:17,519 you have this 336 00:12:21,990 --> 00:12:18,959 constant 337 00:12:25,350 --> 00:12:22,000 from a long time ago feud between this 338 00:12:27,750 --> 00:12:25,360 more natural way and this more 339 00:12:30,069 --> 00:12:27,760 artificial way i guess you could call it 340 00:12:32,550 --> 00:12:30,079 but they're both really the same people 341 00:12:35,670 --> 00:12:32,560 it's almost like a family feud and it's 342 00:12:37,509 --> 00:12:35,680 like if the box saga has any truth to it 343 00:12:39,509 --> 00:12:37,519 it doesn't mean that it's the way we 344 00:12:41,150 --> 00:12:39,519 should all be going back to by any means 345 00:12:43,910 --> 00:12:41,160 but it would be the more 346 00:12:46,389 --> 00:12:43,920 naturalistic way like it's the heathen 347 00:12:49,190 --> 00:12:46,399 the pagan the worship of nature more 348 00:12:51,670 --> 00:12:49,200 than move on from that expand outward 349 00:12:54,150 --> 00:12:51,680 build machines become the new thing it's 350 00:12:56,550 --> 00:12:54,160 a very old versus new kind of mentality 351 00:12:58,310 --> 00:12:56,560 that i constantly see out there but then 352 00:13:00,550 --> 00:12:58,320 again that also feels like a galleon 353 00:13:02,790 --> 00:13:00,560 dialectic as well 354 00:13:04,790 --> 00:13:02,800 i don't know it's a big topic 355 00:13:07,030 --> 00:13:04,800 to get into for sure 356 00:13:09,670 --> 00:13:07,040 right i mean it kind of cuts both ways 357 00:13:12,949 --> 00:13:09,680 there it's like the the part you landed 358 00:13:14,790 --> 00:13:12,959 on on the end is kind of more what i was 359 00:13:16,230 --> 00:13:14,800 saying right andy it's like 360 00:13:19,509 --> 00:13:16,240 yeah it's 361 00:13:22,230 --> 00:13:19,519 it's picking up some themes some 362 00:13:24,389 --> 00:13:22,240 metaphors some archetypes that do 363 00:13:25,430 --> 00:13:24,399 resonate with us and have some deeper 364 00:13:28,069 --> 00:13:25,440 truth 365 00:13:30,230 --> 00:13:28,079 but what does that mean in terms of 366 00:13:32,230 --> 00:13:30,240 inquiry you perpetuate doubt you know so 367 00:13:34,069 --> 00:13:32,240 skeptico that's my ethos i didn't 368 00:13:37,509 --> 00:13:34,079 realize it even at the time that i named 369 00:13:41,030 --> 00:13:37,519 the show but inquiry to perpetuate doubt 370 00:13:43,430 --> 00:13:41,040 i am want to be doubtful because that to 371 00:13:46,150 --> 00:13:43,440 me is a spiritual process 372 00:13:50,230 --> 00:13:46,160 when i settle on something when i know 373 00:13:52,470 --> 00:13:50,240 something ah it's over i've lost 374 00:13:56,310 --> 00:13:52,480 exactly it's over i've lost it i've lost 375 00:13:58,550 --> 00:13:56,320 it when i'm always reaching and for me 376 00:14:01,269 --> 00:13:58,560 that's kind of a doubt you know so my 377 00:14:04,230 --> 00:14:01,279 point would be rather than to find 378 00:14:05,670 --> 00:14:04,240 the resonance with the box saga 379 00:14:08,069 --> 00:14:05,680 yeah there has to be some otherwise i'm 380 00:14:09,670 --> 00:14:08,079 not drawn in right right once i find the 381 00:14:11,910 --> 00:14:09,680 the resonance okay 382 00:14:14,550 --> 00:14:11,920 how can i tear this apart right is there 383 00:14:17,310 --> 00:14:14,560 any one thing because all it takes is is 384 00:14:20,310 --> 00:14:17,320 one thing you know that that is an 385 00:14:23,189 --> 00:14:20,320 irrecoverable kind of falsehood you know 386 00:14:25,990 --> 00:14:23,199 and then you go oh okay well i i would 387 00:14:28,150 --> 00:14:26,000 just to that i would say the problem is 388 00:14:30,230 --> 00:14:28,160 the a lot of the holes you could 389 00:14:32,629 --> 00:14:30,240 possibly find in something like the bach 390 00:14:34,550 --> 00:14:32,639 saga would then have to be looked at 391 00:14:37,670 --> 00:14:34,560 with a keen eye too because it's coming 392 00:14:39,990 --> 00:14:37,680 from say a catholic run society and we 393 00:14:42,389 --> 00:14:40,000 know that they overran and destroyed so 394 00:14:44,310 --> 00:14:42,399 much of the world and strangle holded 395 00:14:45,350 --> 00:14:44,320 everyone into their belief structure at 396 00:14:48,310 --> 00:14:45,360 one point 397 00:14:50,550 --> 00:14:48,320 scandinavia included especially i mean 398 00:14:53,189 --> 00:14:50,560 so i don't know we'd have to really dig 399 00:14:55,350 --> 00:14:53,199 into the historical aspect of it but 400 00:14:57,350 --> 00:14:55,360 along with the saga saying that this 401 00:15:00,310 --> 00:14:57,360 family took off and hid all of its 402 00:15:03,189 --> 00:15:00,320 treasures and this area of the world was 403 00:15:05,590 --> 00:15:03,199 destroyed by catholics 404 00:15:07,269 --> 00:15:05,600 does in a way fit with the historical 405 00:15:10,150 --> 00:15:07,279 narrative doesn't mean heathens and 406 00:15:11,670 --> 00:15:10,160 pagans are the good guys i don't think 407 00:15:13,350 --> 00:15:11,680 any of these people are the good guys 408 00:15:15,590 --> 00:15:13,360 because i tend to say 409 00:15:17,430 --> 00:15:15,600 the society wants you to lean on one 410 00:15:18,949 --> 00:15:17,440 wall or the other because it's easy to 411 00:15:20,790 --> 00:15:18,959 do that but the problem is we're 412 00:15:22,870 --> 00:15:20,800 supposed to be finding our own invisible 413 00:15:25,590 --> 00:15:22,880 balance beam that there's good ideas on 414 00:15:27,829 --> 00:15:25,600 both sides of this divide and conquer 415 00:15:29,829 --> 00:15:27,839 [\h__\h] that's been put in our faces if 416 00:15:31,350 --> 00:15:29,839 that makes sense 417 00:15:34,470 --> 00:15:31,360 the problem i have with that is i think 418 00:15:36,710 --> 00:15:34,480 if you run the catholic timeline i don't 419 00:15:38,790 --> 00:15:36,720 think it matches up with anything i've 420 00:15:41,590 --> 00:15:38,800 heard with the box saga i mean the 421 00:15:44,069 --> 00:15:41,600 catholics were pretty good at recording 422 00:15:45,990 --> 00:15:44,079 their timeline and all the popes and all 423 00:15:48,470 --> 00:15:46,000 the writings and all the bishops and all 424 00:15:49,670 --> 00:15:48,480 the phony baloney [\h__\h] that they 425 00:15:53,509 --> 00:15:49,680 were doing 426 00:15:55,509 --> 00:15:53,519 and you can match that right up to uh to 427 00:15:57,829 --> 00:15:55,519 the box saga and it doesn't it doesn't i 428 00:16:00,069 --> 00:15:57,839 mean it doesn't even 429 00:16:02,069 --> 00:16:00,079 are we talking about the uh invasion of 430 00:16:03,990 --> 00:16:02,079 uh finland and stuff like that the dates 431 00:16:05,829 --> 00:16:04,000 are are off 432 00:16:07,430 --> 00:16:05,839 i noticed that as well i did it 433 00:16:09,430 --> 00:16:07,440 considerably so 434 00:16:12,230 --> 00:16:09,440 and it's and it's and then you have all 435 00:16:13,910 --> 00:16:12,240 this different you know 436 00:16:15,990 --> 00:16:13,920 i was just talking to 437 00:16:18,629 --> 00:16:16,000 my buddy al borealis who runs forum 438 00:16:21,110 --> 00:16:18,639 borealis and he's yes 439 00:16:24,069 --> 00:16:21,120 good guy and he lives way up in far 440 00:16:26,949 --> 00:16:24,079 norway and uh he was 441 00:16:29,430 --> 00:16:26,959 chatting with somebody about the norse 442 00:16:31,189 --> 00:16:29,440 mythology and the norse 443 00:16:33,430 --> 00:16:31,199 religion culture and stuff like that and 444 00:16:35,030 --> 00:16:33,440 he was kind of laying a bunch of stuff 445 00:16:36,310 --> 00:16:35,040 because he's really studied it you know 446 00:16:38,310 --> 00:16:36,320 it's kind of second nature to him but 447 00:16:40,470 --> 00:16:38,320 he's kind of like okay you don't get it 448 00:16:42,790 --> 00:16:40,480 you know it's like number one 449 00:16:44,310 --> 00:16:42,800 there is nothing in 450 00:16:46,150 --> 00:16:44,320 left in 451 00:16:49,110 --> 00:16:46,160 norway because as you said you know 452 00:16:51,910 --> 00:16:49,120 there's this kind of cleansing uh it it 453 00:16:54,310 --> 00:16:51,920 but it's not just catholic and then some 454 00:16:57,350 --> 00:16:54,320 of them go over to ireland and scotland 455 00:16:59,829 --> 00:16:57,360 and that but iceland is most you know uh 456 00:17:02,069 --> 00:16:59,839 preserved of that kind of thing so once 457 00:17:05,029 --> 00:17:02,079 you start really breaking that down with 458 00:17:07,990 --> 00:17:05,039 scholars the box eye has some huge holes 459 00:17:10,630 --> 00:17:08,000 in it that i to me are irrecoverable 460 00:17:13,270 --> 00:17:10,640 that you just can't apply when the 461 00:17:15,350 --> 00:17:13,280 scholarship starts pulling it apart you 462 00:17:16,630 --> 00:17:15,360 can't start plugging the holes with just 463 00:17:19,189 --> 00:17:16,640 you know 464 00:17:21,350 --> 00:17:19,199 anecdote perhaps yeah right yeah or just 465 00:17:23,510 --> 00:17:21,360 or just uh you know i still like it you 466 00:17:24,870 --> 00:17:23,520 know because it doesn't it ring true but 467 00:17:26,309 --> 00:17:24,880 isn't because 468 00:17:28,309 --> 00:17:26,319 and this is really you know this 469 00:17:30,310 --> 00:17:28,319 conversation we're having right now is 470 00:17:33,350 --> 00:17:30,320 what's kind of 471 00:17:37,430 --> 00:17:33,360 really motivating me pushing me in terms 472 00:17:39,029 --> 00:17:37,440 of the us as a community as truth 473 00:17:41,350 --> 00:17:39,039 seekers you know 474 00:17:44,070 --> 00:17:41,360 oh i i still think we've lost our way in 475 00:17:46,870 --> 00:17:44,080 so many ways you know lost our way

00:20:11,029 --> 00:20:08,000 because again i don't hold it to be true 543 00:20:12,710 --> 00:20:11,039 i am very much like you where it's 544 00:20:15,110 --> 00:20:12,720 i like to be open i leave i like to 545 00:20:17,990 --> 00:20:15,120 leave some some wiggle room here to just 546 00:20:20,950 --> 00:20:18,000 pull out pieces of everybody's story and 547 00:20:22,549 --> 00:20:20,960 see where they went wrong or where some 548 00:20:24,149 --> 00:20:22,559 truth might lie or something like that 549 00:20:27,190 --> 00:20:24,159 but i said the other day about the saga 550 00:20:29,350 --> 00:20:27,200 like i i want to have some like really 551 00:20:32,870 --> 00:20:29,360 intense researchers on that i really 552 00:20:34,149 --> 00:20:32,880 respect and be able to be like hey sorry 553 00:20:36,310 --> 00:20:34,159 i don't want to talk about anything 554 00:20:38,470 --> 00:20:36,320 you're working on right now can i use 555 00:20:40,390 --> 00:20:38,480 your brain for two hours and it's like 556 00:20:42,630 --> 00:20:40,400 you can't really do that with someone 557 00:20:44,470 --> 00:20:42,640 you've never met you know maybe after 558 00:20:46,870 --> 00:20:44,480 like five appearances or something like 559 00:20:49,190 --> 00:20:46,880 hey can you help me out man can you take 560 00:20:51,029 --> 00:20:49,200 a look at this for me but even then it's 561 00:20:53,990 --> 00:20:51,039 hard because everybody's very busy and 562 00:20:55,110 --> 00:20:54,000 everybody's in their own silos kind of 563 00:20:56,789 --> 00:20:55,120 you know 564 00:20:59,029 --> 00:20:56,799 it's good to get out of the silo every 565 00:21:01,430 --> 00:20:59,039 once in a while but we always kind of 566 00:21:03,270 --> 00:21:01,440 cycle back in every once in a while 567 00:21:05,669 --> 00:21:03,280 well there's a reason why we're while 568 00:21:07,669 --> 00:21:05,679 we're in the silo and it's sometimes 569 00:21:08,950 --> 00:21:07,679 it's a good reason i mean the reason why 570 00:21:13,590 --> 00:21:08,960 we're in 571 00:21:16,149 --> 00:21:13,600 spirituality and in terms of 572 00:21:17,270 --> 00:21:16,159 extended consciousness and what that 573 00:21:19,669 --> 00:21:17,280 means 574 00:21:22,149 --> 00:21:19,679 is because we think there are some 575 00:21:23,830 --> 00:21:22,159 truths there that really kind of drive 576 00:21:25,909 --> 00:21:23,840 us forward in our life you know what i 577 00:21:28,310 --> 00:21:25,919 mean and people who are shut down from 578 00:21:29,430 --> 00:21:28,320 that or in a different silo you kind of 579 00:21:31,270 --> 00:21:29,440 want to 580 00:21:33,750 --> 00:21:31,280 knock on their little glass window and 581 00:21:36,470 --> 00:21:33,760 go come on out there's this whole other 582 00:21:38,789 --> 00:21:36,480 thing because you will die and you will 583 00:21:40,470 --> 00:21:38,799 face whether or not there is anything 584 00:21:42,310 --> 00:21:40,480 after that and what that is and what 585 00:21:44,870 --> 00:21:42,320 that means and what that could have 586 00:21:46,789 --> 00:21:44,880 meant in terms of how you live your life 587 00:21:49,669 --> 00:21:46,799 yeah i like the way you put that total 588 00:21:50,789 --> 00:21:49,679 regret or total jubilation perhaps one 589 00:21:52,950 --> 00:21:50,799 of the other 590 00:21:55,270 --> 00:21:52,960 that ending circumstance that you you 591 00:21:57,990 --> 00:21:55,280 know i go down that pathway a lot well 592 00:21:59,909 --> 00:21:58,000 an interesting way to bridge from this 593 00:22:01,750 --> 00:21:59,919 box saga little tangent we went down 594 00:22:03,110 --> 00:22:01,760 into what we were really going to kind 595 00:22:05,430 --> 00:22:03,120 of get into 596 00:22:07,750 --> 00:22:05,440 was the reason that what resonates with 597 00:22:10,070 --> 00:22:07,760 me most about that saga is just the 598 00:22:12,950 --> 00:22:10,080 language because of a psychedelic 599 00:22:14,870 --> 00:22:12,960 experience i had long time ago that i 600 00:22:16,549 --> 00:22:14,880 came out of and everybody even my 601 00:22:18,710 --> 00:22:16,559 friends tripping with me thought i was 602 00:22:20,390 --> 00:22:18,720 completely crazy and then i just forgot 603 00:22:22,950 --> 00:22:20,400 about it after a while but this saga 604 00:22:24,870 --> 00:22:22,960 reinvigorated the memory of coming out 605 00:22:26,390 --> 00:22:24,880 of an experience going 606 00:22:29,590 --> 00:22:26,400 there's a hidden 607 00:22:32,390 --> 00:22:29,600 language inside of every 608 00:22:35,510 --> 00:22:32,400 modern language there's some sort of 609 00:22:37,909 --> 00:22:35,520 phonetic connection that tells a sacred 610 00:22:40,149 --> 00:22:37,919 story that exists inside every one of us 611 00:22:41,909 --> 00:22:40,159 and then i found joseph campbell and the 612 00:22:42,630 --> 00:22:41,919 hero with a thousand faces and i was 613 00:22:43,750 --> 00:22:42,640 like 614 00:22:47,909 --> 00:22:43,760 this 615 00:22:51,350 --> 00:22:47,919 puzzle piece talking about the same 616 00:22:53,750 --> 00:22:51,360 thing like holy crap there's this 617 00:22:55,909 --> 00:22:53,760 story that exists inside of you know it 618 00:22:58,710 --> 00:22:55,919 was just that's what resonated with me 619 00:23:01,190 --> 00:22:58,720 so not that a lot of the factoids about 620 00:23:03,350 --> 00:23:01,200 saga necessarily have to be true but 621 00:23:07,029 --> 00:23:03,360 that something there resonates with my 622 00:23:10,630 --> 00:23:08,630 yeah although 623 00:23:13,430 --> 00:23:10,640 i tell you man i i would encourage you 624 00:23:14,950 --> 00:23:13,440 to kind of not tail off at the end there 625 00:23:17,190 --> 00:23:14,960 because i don't think it's necessarily 626 00:23:20,070 --> 00:23:17,200 about your your spirit there i think 627 00:23:20,830 --> 00:23:20,080 what you're saying is it connects to 628 00:23:24,549 --> 00:23:20,840 an 629 00:23:27,110 --> 00:23:24,559 experiential truth that you had in this 630 00:23:28,470 --> 00:23:27,120 extended realm so you know that's so 631 00:23:29,750 --> 00:23:28,480 that's been my 632 00:23:31,430 --> 00:23:29,760 kind of 633 00:23:32,710 --> 00:23:31,440 mission you know and it's what not a 634 00:23:35,029 --> 00:23:32,720 it's like a personal mission of 635 00:23:36,950 --> 00:23:35,039 discovery like so the first thing is 636 00:23:38,549 --> 00:23:36,960 does consciousness exist 637 00:23:40,710 --> 00:23:38,559 because you gotta 638 00:23:42,470 --> 00:23:40,720 is there's that little voice inside your 639 00:23:43,590 --> 00:23:42,480 head is that real and like i always 640 00:23:44,950 --> 00:23:43,600 point this out to people because i 641 00:23:48,310 --> 00:23:44,960 started this a long time ago in the 642 00:23:50,549 --> 00:23:48,320 popular the most popular it still is the 643 00:23:54,070 --> 00:23:50,559 predominant paradigm in science is that 644 00:23:56,230 --> 00:23:54,080 no that is an illusion that is not real 645 00:23:58,230 --> 00:23:56,240 that is an epiphenomenon your brain your 646 00:23:59,669 --> 00:23:58,240 brain is just this ball of jelly up 647 00:24:02,070 --> 00:23:59,679 there and it does this thing and you 648 00:24:05,269 --> 00:24:02,080 think that story is real but it's not 649 00:24:08,070 --> 00:24:05,279 that has been falsified scientifically 650 00:24:10,950 --> 00:24:08,080 and we talked 40 hours on that yeah but 651 00:24:12,230 --> 00:24:10,960 the next point that gets us to your 652 00:24:13,990 --> 00:24:12,240 thing 653 00:24:17,669 --> 00:24:14,000 so now we're saying 654 00:24:19,990 --> 00:24:17,679 not only is there this consciousness 655 00:24:22,789 --> 00:24:20,000 not only is that story that voice inside 656 00:24:26,230 --> 00:24:22,799 your head not only is that real 657 00:24:28,870 --> 00:24:26,240 but the voice can be outside your head 658 00:24:31,510 --> 00:24:28,880 and that can be real there is some kind 659 00:24:33,029 --> 00:24:31,520 of extended consciousness that we always 660 00:24:35,269 --> 00:24:33,039 know when we're talking about angels and 661 00:24:36,630 --> 00:24:35,279 demons or for christian or whatever we 662 00:24:37,990 --> 00:24:36,640 always know there's this extent of 663 00:24:40,549 --> 00:24:38,000 consciousness 664 00:24:41,909 --> 00:24:40,559 but we weren't allowed to talk about it 665 00:24:44,630 --> 00:24:41,919 and part of the part of the way they 666 00:24:46,630 --> 00:24:44,640 muscled us is because they denied even 667 00:24:48,630 --> 00:24:46,640 consciousness they even said even the 668 00:24:51,029 --> 00:24:48,640 voice inside your head 669 00:24:53,350 --> 00:24:51,039 isn't real and now you're going whoa 670 00:24:55,909 --> 00:24:53,360 andy you're telling me that you had some 671 00:24:58,950 --> 00:24:55,919 experience outside of your body and 672 00:25:02,310 --> 00:24:58,960 that's real and that's an experience oh 673 00:25:03,110 --> 00:25:02,320 andy you are so stupid yeah right 674 00:25:07,590 --> 00:25:03,120 so 675 00:25:09,590 --> 00:25:07,600 kind of poking you a little bit in terms 676 00:25:12,390 --> 00:25:09,600 of tailing off and saying you know 677 00:25:15,830 --> 00:25:12,400 maybe it resonated me in it no man you 678 00:25:20,230 --> 00:25:15,840 had a maybe let's consider the opposite 679 00:25:21,669 --> 00:25:20,240 andy had a direct experience of knowing 680 00:25:23,510 --> 00:25:21,679 some super 681 00:25:25,990 --> 00:25:23,520 like advanced 682 00:25:28,230 --> 00:25:26,000 knowledge that is out there in some 683 00:25:29,830 --> 00:25:28,240 other realm and you pulled that 684 00:25:30,789 --> 00:25:29,840 knowledge back 685 00:25:32,710 --> 00:25:30,799 and 686 00:25:34,789 --> 00:25:32,720 then that knowledge resonated with 687 00:25:36,549 --> 00:25:34,799 something else that you came across 688 00:25:38,149 --> 00:25:36,559 whether that is 689 00:25:40,470 --> 00:25:38,159 literally true or not in terms of the 690 00:25:41,909 --> 00:25:40,480 box saga is another question but that's 691 00:25:43,830 --> 00:25:41,919 how you get what i'm saying you get this 692 00:25:46,710 --> 00:25:43,840 yes it doesn't have to even match up 693 00:25:48,470 --> 00:25:46,720 directly it just it's it relates it 694 00:25:50,870 --> 00:25:48,480 directly relates it's almost like a 695 00:25:53,269 --> 00:25:50,880 reflection in the external world from an 696 00:25:54,710 --> 00:25:53,279 internal experience and honestly you hit 697 00:25:56,390 --> 00:25:54,720 on a great point there because i've 698 00:25:58,230 --> 00:25:56,400 heard many people and i resonate with 699 00:26:00,549 --> 00:25:58,240 this that when they have psychedelic 700 00:26:01,990 --> 00:26:00,559 experiences or near-death experiences 701 00:26:04,470 --> 00:26:02,000 it's almo it almost feels like they're 702 00:26:07,190 --> 00:26:04,480 given this internal map or this internal 703 00:26:09,830 --> 00:26:07,200 puzzle and they want to 704 00:26:12,870 --> 00:26:09,840 find all the pieces out here that match 705 00:26:14,710 --> 00:26:12,880 up with that internal puzzle and 706 00:26:17,669 --> 00:26:14,720 it seems to be 707 00:26:19,990 --> 00:26:17,679 uh available it seems to work like 708 00:26:22,310 --> 00:26:20,000 putting the solution first and then 709 00:26:24,470 --> 00:26:22,320 finding the parts that get there it's 710 00:26:25,830 --> 00:26:24,480 incredible you know but again that can 711 00:26:27,909 --> 00:26:25,840 lead to 712 00:26:30,230 --> 00:26:27,919 you know bad thinking too because you 713 00:26:33,350 --> 00:26:30,240 can get hung up on a thought and want to 714 00:26:35,510 --> 00:26:33,360 prove it more than it should be proven 715 00:26:37,430 --> 00:26:35,520 absolutely great point great pun i love 716 00:26:39,430 --> 00:26:37,440 the ping pong back and forth it's gotta 717 00:26:41,350 --> 00:26:39,440 be both man it unfortunately it has to 718 00:26:42,789 --> 00:26:41,360 be both it's those two leaning sides 719 00:26:45,669 --> 00:26:42,799 right 720 00:26:48,630 --> 00:26:45,679 exactly and you know so here's here's 721 00:26:49,909 --> 00:26:48,640 another you know uh ping pong paradigm 722 00:26:53,269 --> 00:26:49,919 flip 723 00:26:54,070 --> 00:26:53,279 is that extended consciousness realm 724 00:26:57,269 --> 00:26:54,080 more 725 00:26:59,029 --> 00:26:57,279 real whatever that means real than this 726 00:27:00,390 --> 00:26:59,039 realm right because immediately you're 727 00:27:02,870 --> 00:27:00,400 nodding your head because you're like 728 00:27:04,470 --> 00:27:02,880 yeah that's what we keep hearing yeah 729 00:27:07,029 --> 00:27:04,480 you talk to anyone who's had a 730 00:27:10,390 --> 00:27:07,039 near-death experience overwhelmingly 731 00:27:13,990 --> 00:27:10,400 like 90 percent off the charts 732 00:27:15,510 --> 00:27:14,000 this is real this is home you're living 733 00:27:21,430 --> 00:27:15,520 the illusion 734 00:27:24,389 --> 00:27:21,440 that was real out-of-body experience uh 735 00:27:26,230 --> 00:27:24,399 all sorts of different experiences e.t 736 00:27:28,710 --> 00:27:26,240 you know what does that mean when people 737 00:27:29,990 --> 00:27:28,720 have that experience they go okay you 738 00:27:31,510 --> 00:27:30,000 know this is 739 00:27:38,149 --> 00:27:31,520 so 740 00:27:39,350 --> 00:27:38,159 this extended consciousness experience 741 00:27:41,830 --> 00:27:39,360 like you did 742 00:27:44,149 --> 00:27:41,840 it's profound 743 00:27:45,990 --> 00:27:44,159 and it's true in a way that you just 744 00:27:47,430 --> 00:27:46,000 knew it in your you can't say in your 745 00:27:50,230 --> 00:27:47,440 bones because you're out of your body 746 00:27:52,549 --> 00:27:50,240 right you knew it it you know soul level 747 00:27:54,789 --> 00:27:52,559 and now you're coming back and now 748 00:27:56,310 --> 00:27:54,799 you're trying to rationalize it just 749 00:27:59,909 --> 00:27:56,320 like you said you're trying to fit those 750 00:28:00,830 --> 00:27:59,919 pieces together in an inferior 751 00:28:02,310 --> 00:28:00,840 form 752 00:28:04,950 --> 00:28:02,320 yes so 753 00:28:07,350 --> 00:28:04,960 we're coming back from the uh i like to 754 00:28:10,470 --> 00:28:07,360 say it's like the the uh 755 00:28:12,070 --> 00:28:10,480 ecstatic experience of non-ego or 756 00:28:13,909 --> 00:28:12,080 something along those lines and we're 757 00:28:16,470 --> 00:28:13,919 coming back and we're explaining it to 758 00:28:18,149 --> 00:28:16,480 everybody and sharing those experiences 759 00:28:20,630 --> 00:28:18,159 with our egoic 760 00:28:23,830 --> 00:28:20,640 conscious linear mind so we have this 761 00:28:25,590 --> 00:28:23,840 feeling of non-linearity and all that 762 00:28:27,669 --> 00:28:25,600 and then you come back in and the only 763 00:28:28,950 --> 00:28:27,679 way you can describe it is using this 764 00:28:32,789 --> 00:28:28,960 inferior 765 00:28:35,909 --> 00:28:32,799 uh reduced form as i would say it's like 766 00:28:37,110 --> 00:28:35,919 a reduced form i think illusion is a 767 00:28:39,350 --> 00:28:37,120 is um 768 00:28:40,630 --> 00:28:39,360 it can be a dangerous term i i wouldn't 769 00:28:41,510 --> 00:28:40,640 wonder if you would agree with that 770 00:28:42,710 --> 00:28:41,520 because 771 00:28:44,389 --> 00:28:42,720 um 772 00:28:47,430 --> 00:28:44,399 you know again trying to find that 773 00:28:49,430 --> 00:28:47,440 middle path always um 774 00:28:51,750 --> 00:28:49,440 there's a way to 775 00:28:54,789 --> 00:28:51,760 get spiritual and then get carried off 776 00:28:57,029 --> 00:28:54,799 by certain people's ideas that kind of 777 00:28:59,190 --> 00:28:57,039 say the body is meaningless it's just 778 00:29:02,070 --> 00:28:59,200 this spirit this inner gnosis that 779 00:29:04,470 --> 00:29:02,080 matters where i go more into the 780 00:29:05,669 --> 00:29:04,480 alchemical explanation of things like 781 00:29:07,590 --> 00:29:05,679 for instance 782 00:29:08,870 --> 00:29:07,600 those people you mentioned in science 783 00:29:10,950 --> 00:29:08,880 like neil degrasse tyson all these 784 00:29:13,750 --> 00:29:10,960 people that we used to kind of 785 00:29:15,909 --> 00:29:13,760 accept i did blindly like 20 years ago 786 00:29:17,510 --> 00:29:15,919 for sure i loved all of those guys 787 00:29:19,830 --> 00:29:17,520 they're it's like they're looking at a 788 00:29:21,269 --> 00:29:19,840 model of reality and going yeah see 789 00:29:22,630 --> 00:29:21,279 clearly this is how it works and it's 790 00:29:24,950 --> 00:29:22,640 like dude that's made out of legos 791 00:29:26,070 --> 00:29:24,960 that's not the real thing if that does 792 00:29:28,310 --> 00:29:26,080 that make sense to you does that 793 00:29:29,110 --> 00:29:28,320 resonate yeah that's great 794 00:29:30,230 --> 00:29:29,120 and 795 00:29:32,789 --> 00:29:30,240 yeah 796 00:29:34,230 --> 00:29:32,799 where i was going with that but it's 797 00:29:35,350 --> 00:29:34,240 just 798 00:29:38,310 --> 00:29:35,360 it uh 799 00:29:41,190 --> 00:29:38,320 yeah it feels like um we're kind of 800 00:29:43,350 --> 00:29:41,200 reduced here but it's not that it's fake 801 00:29:45,190 --> 00:29:43,360 it's not that it's an illusion i think 802 00:29:46,750 --> 00:29:45,200 even the word maya in buddhism and 803 00:29:49,110 --> 00:29:46,760 hinduism has been 804 00:29:52,070 --> 00:29:49,120 misappropriated to illusion when it 805 00:29:55,510 --> 00:29:52,080 really represents uh the appearance of 806 00:29:58,149 --> 00:29:55,520 what is real so it's you know let me 807 00:30:00,789 --> 00:29:58,159 quote from andy and his answer to my 808 00:30:01,830 --> 00:30:00,799 survey question consciousness again this 809 00:30:04,470 --> 00:30:01,840 is really 810 00:30:06,230 --> 00:30:04,480 it's it's short but it's really uh very 811 00:30:08,389 --> 00:30:06,240 profound i don't want to play i don't 812 00:30:11,350 --> 00:30:08,399 love too much smoke everything is 813 00:30:15,110 --> 00:30:11,360 consciousness and then what you added is 814 00:30:17,990 --> 00:30:15,120 the paradox somehow allows this 815 00:30:21,830 --> 00:30:18,000 experience to me that is exactly what 816 00:30:24,549 --> 00:30:21,840 you just said there yeah alchemical 817 00:30:27,029 --> 00:30:24,559 opposites and creating this third what 818 00:30:29,590 --> 00:30:27,039 what is this why are we here what's 819 00:30:31,110 --> 00:30:29,600 happening right now do we hold on to it 820 00:30:32,950 --> 00:30:31,120 what do we do 821 00:30:33,990 --> 00:30:32,960 poof 822 00:30:36,230 --> 00:30:34,000 i don't know 823 00:30:38,310 --> 00:30:36,240 and i yeah and not to cut you off it uh 824 00:30:39,350 --> 00:30:38,320 it's given me a lot of stress 825 00:30:42,630 --> 00:30:39,360 about 826 00:30:44,630 --> 00:30:42,640 afterlife honestly and i love symbolism 827 00:30:46,549 --> 00:30:44,640 and i love ancient religions and looking 828 00:30:47,830 --> 00:30:46,559 at all the comparisons and 829 00:30:48,789 --> 00:30:47,840 how they're different and how they're 830 00:30:50,789 --> 00:30:48,799 similar 831 00:30:53,990 --> 00:30:50,799 but i often wonder are they ever really 832 00:30:55,830 --> 00:30:54,000 talking about beyond conscious life 833 00:30:58,630 --> 00:30:55,840 are they talking about what's missing 834 00:31:00,870 --> 00:30:58,640 from our perception right now 835 00:31:03,269 --> 00:31:00,880 that you know what i mean heaven here 836 00:31:06,310 --> 00:31:03,279 because on psychedelics especially i see 837 00:31:07,830 --> 00:31:06,320 my my desk i see my computer but much 838 00:31:09,830 --> 00:31:07,840 like that psychedelic art that's just 839 00:31:12,310 --> 00:31:09,840 been around forever there's like more 840 00:31:14,389 --> 00:31:12,320 layers to it and it's beautiful and 841 00:31:15,750 --> 00:31:14,399 there's majesties everywhere but it's 842 00:31:17,909 --> 00:31:15,760 not that it's anything different than 843 00:31:18,710 --> 00:31:17,919 what i'm seeing i'm just seeing all of 844 00:31:20,470 --> 00:31:18,720 it 845 00:31:22,870 --> 00:31:20,480 if that adds up 846 00:31:25,350 --> 00:31:22,880 well it does add up it's just how you're 847 00:31:27,509 --> 00:31:25,360 going to add it up so and here's here's 848 00:31:29,590 --> 00:31:27,519 a here's a pivot that i think is kind of 849 00:31:31,830 --> 00:31:29,600 really interesting so you take the 850 00:31:33,990 --> 00:31:31,840 psychedelic experience and it has all 851 00:31:36,230 --> 00:31:34,000 sorts of baggage associated with it and 852 00:31:38,230 --> 00:31:36,240 we all get that so pivot to the 853 00:31:40,549 --> 00:31:38,240 near-death experience and let's see what 854 00:31:43,110 --> 00:31:40,559 that looks like compared to that because 855 00:31:45,269 --> 00:31:43,120 i think the parallels are just 856 00:31:47,669 --> 00:31:45,279 stunning so people have near-death 857 00:31:48,549 --> 00:31:47,679 experiences and as we know 858 00:31:50,909 --> 00:31:48,559 they 859 00:31:54,470 --> 00:31:50,919 the variety of these are just 860 00:31:56,549 --> 00:31:54,480 unexplainable and their weirdness is 861 00:31:58,630 --> 00:31:56,559 unexplainable and in some ways would 862 00:32:01,029 --> 00:31:58,640 seem to be irresolvable in the same way 863 00:32:03,190 --> 00:32:01,039 that psychedelic experiences are oh i 864 00:32:04,470 --> 00:32:03,200 saw this man i saw that well i saw this 865 00:32:05,669 --> 00:32:04,480 you know and like then we're going to 866 00:32:07,830 --> 00:32:05,679 try and 867 00:32:10,950 --> 00:32:07,840 resolve those at some physical level 868 00:32:13,350 --> 00:32:10,960 well that means that there's 17 million 869 00:32:15,509 --> 00:32:13,360 layers to reality and it's like when i 870 00:32:17,110 --> 00:32:15,519 hear that stuff it's like 871 00:32:19,269 --> 00:32:17,120 here's here's a guy he interviewed from 872 00:32:21,190 --> 00:32:19,279 a near-death experience 873 00:32:22,950 --> 00:32:21,200 loved guy great guy his name is david 874 00:32:25,590 --> 00:32:22,960 ditchfield 875 00:32:28,470 --> 00:32:25,600 think about this british guy 876 00:32:30,070 --> 00:32:28,480 he's going to kiss his wife goodbye at 877 00:32:32,470 --> 00:32:30,080 the train 878 00:32:33,990 --> 00:32:32,480 he leans forward this is england so it's 879 00:32:35,509 --> 00:32:34,000 like massachusetts it's always raining 880 00:32:36,710 --> 00:32:35,519 it's always shitty weather except now 881 00:32:39,110 --> 00:32:36,720 you probably gotta go with her now 882 00:32:41,110 --> 00:32:39,120 sometimes it's humid as hell yeah 883 00:32:42,470 --> 00:32:41,120 he leads forward his coat gets caught in 884 00:32:45,350 --> 00:32:42,480 the doors 885 00:32:47,830 --> 00:32:45,360 and he is along for the ride as the 886 00:32:50,789 --> 00:32:47,840 train takes off he's thrown under the 887 00:32:52,789 --> 00:32:50,799 train the train rolls him over he dies 888 00:32:54,710 --> 00:32:52,799 common misconception about near-death 889 00:32:56,789 --> 00:32:54,720 experience and not a good use of the 890 00:32:59,990 --> 00:32:56,799 term because he is dead 891 00:33:02,789 --> 00:33:00,000 by any means that we're clinically 892 00:33:04,710 --> 00:33:02,799 talking about in terms of uh you know 50 893 00:33:06,149 --> 00:33:04,720 or 100 years ago 894 00:33:08,149 --> 00:33:06,159 when before we could do this 895 00:33:10,230 --> 00:33:08,159 resuscitation of being 896 00:33:12,389 --> 00:33:10,240 bring people back to death he's dead 897 00:33:14,710 --> 00:33:12,399 dead dead dead yes yes 898 00:33:16,789 --> 00:33:14,720 and he's dead for a while 899 00:33:18,549 --> 00:33:16,799 in his experience 900 00:33:20,230 --> 00:33:18,559 he meets jesus 901 00:33:23,430 --> 00:33:20,240 and he's very 902 00:33:24,470 --> 00:33:23,440 clear about the fact that he meets jesus 903 00:33:33,830 --> 00:33:24,480 he 904 00:33:35,909 --> 00:33:33,840 that after his near-death experience but 905 00:33:37,750 --> 00:33:35,919 he also develops these incredible 906 00:33:39,509 --> 00:33:37,760 artistic abilities i see you have a 907 00:33:42,070 --> 00:33:39,519 keyboard in the background yes this guy 908 00:33:44,549 --> 00:33:42,080 had this guy had no musical background 909 00:33:47,669 --> 00:33:44,559 all of a sudden he's 910 00:33:50,230 --> 00:33:47,679 you know writing symphonies and even had 911 00:33:52,789 --> 00:33:50,240 one performed you know at his thing 912 00:33:55,669 --> 00:33:52,799 drawing these art pieces these huge 913 00:33:57,350 --> 00:33:55,679 large-scale art pieces i'm not an art 914 00:33:59,269 --> 00:33:57,360 expert i can't tell you but they look 915 00:33:59,990 --> 00:33:59,279 pretty incredible to me i couldn't do 916 00:34:02,389 --> 00:34:00,000 them 917 00:34:04,470 --> 00:34:02,399 but jesus is a central part of his 918 00:34:07,269 --> 00:34:04,480 experience you know so i'm talking to 919 00:34:09,030 --> 00:34:07,279 him i'm saying david i get it a lot of 920 00:34:10,869 --> 00:34:09,040 people see jesus 921 00:34:14,149 --> 00:34:10,879 i gotta tell you if you look at it 922 00:34:16,629 --> 00:34:14,159 scientifically statistically 923 00:34:18,710 --> 00:34:16,639 not everybody sees jesus small 924 00:34:20,230 --> 00:34:18,720 percentage of people see jesus what are 925 00:34:22,629 --> 00:34:20,240 we to make of that 926 00:34:25,190 --> 00:34:22,639 all the other parts of their experience 927 00:34:29,109 --> 00:34:25,200 line up oneness love 928 00:34:30,710 --> 00:34:29,119 god connection all that lines up but 929 00:34:32,869 --> 00:34:30,720 some of them see buddha some of them 930 00:34:34,790 --> 00:34:32,879 just see light some of them see energy 931 00:34:37,349 --> 00:34:34,800 what do you make of that 932 00:34:39,909 --> 00:34:37,359 i'm pretty sure it's jesus you know and 933 00:34:41,669 --> 00:34:39,919 then i had this other kind of hypnotic 934 00:34:44,310 --> 00:34:41,679 regression and the woman who was 935 00:34:46,069 --> 00:34:44,320 regressing me said hey you were there 936 00:34:47,030 --> 00:34:46,079 with jesus 937 00:34:49,829 --> 00:34:47,040 okay 938 00:34:51,829 --> 00:34:49,839 i said how about this david i said i've 939 00:34:53,750 --> 00:34:51,839 interviewed a lot of people in with 940 00:34:56,629 --> 00:34:53,760 near-death experiences 941 00:34:58,310 --> 00:34:56,639 and some of them have told me 942 00:35:00,230 --> 00:34:58,320 it was jesus 943 00:35:01,910 --> 00:35:00,240 but then when they thought about it more 944 00:35:03,430 --> 00:35:01,920 and as they lived their life and some of 945 00:35:04,950 --> 00:35:03,440 them even had multiple near-death 946 00:35:07,589 --> 00:35:04,960 experiences 947 00:35:09,910 --> 00:35:07,599 they said yeah it was jesus but there 948 00:35:11,990 --> 00:35:09,920 was something more there was something 949 00:35:14,950 --> 00:35:12,000 more behind it 950 00:35:17,190 --> 00:35:14,960 and then he paused for a second he goes 951 00:35:19,510 --> 00:35:17,200 yeah i kind of get the sense that maybe 952 00:35:21,430 --> 00:35:19,520 there's something more so 953 00:35:24,230 --> 00:35:21,440 back to switch over to our 954 00:35:27,430 --> 00:35:24,240 hallucinogenic experience 955 00:35:29,190 --> 00:35:27,440 so you're presented with all these kind 956 00:35:33,349 --> 00:35:29,200 of things that 957 00:35:35,270 --> 00:35:33,359 i like if you're not experienced 958 00:35:37,270 --> 00:35:35,280 become the focus of it you know like all 959 00:35:40,230 --> 00:35:37,280 the lights and the colors and stuff yeah 960 00:35:41,910 --> 00:35:40,240 the illusions are still in here too yeah 961 00:35:43,270 --> 00:35:41,920 and and as you 962 00:35:45,349 --> 00:35:43,280 some of them aren't illusions because 963 00:35:47,990 --> 00:35:45,359 some of them are mixed in with like the 964 00:35:49,829 --> 00:35:48,000 deep knowing that you had right yes same 965 00:35:51,510 --> 00:35:49,839 for david you know same for david and 966 00:35:53,990 --> 00:35:51,520 when he came back with jesus he came 967 00:35:56,710 --> 00:35:54,000 back with some good [\h__\h] yeah damn right 968 00:35:59,430 --> 00:35:56,720 yeah but but maybe there's maybe there's 969 00:36:02,870 --> 00:35:59,440 more so that the trick there is back to 970 00:36:05,990 --> 00:36:02,880 what we're saying not being stuck in the 971 00:36:08,950 --> 00:36:06,000 narrative not being stuck in i've i've 972 00:36:11,430 --> 00:36:08,960 now experienced everything let me come 973 00:36:13,190 --> 00:36:11,440 back and proselytize and convert people 974 00:36:15,030 --> 00:36:13,200 into everything 975 00:36:16,790 --> 00:36:15,040 i love where we're going with this 976 00:36:18,870 --> 00:36:16,800 because it brought me to the thought of 977 00:36:21,349 --> 00:36:18,880 how um you know it's the inner to the 978 00:36:23,589 --> 00:36:21,359 outer the micro to the macro how we're 979 00:36:25,990 --> 00:36:23,599 describing an inner experience 980 00:36:27,109 --> 00:36:26,000 but we're also talking about society too 981 00:36:29,349 --> 00:36:27,119 because a lot of times when we're 982 00:36:31,990 --> 00:36:29,359 talking about conspiracy theories and 983 00:36:34,470 --> 00:36:32,000 what the elites do the big bad capital t 984 00:36:36,310 --> 00:36:34,480 they whatever that means 985 00:36:38,230 --> 00:36:36,320 it's always that well there's always 986 00:36:39,990 --> 00:36:38,240 truth mixed in with the lies and it's 987 00:36:42,310 --> 00:36:40,000 like well why does that keep reflecting 988 00:36:44,390 --> 00:36:42,320 consciousness's behavior you know when i 989 00:36:48,150 --> 00:36:44,400 had my psychedelic experiences i found 990 00:36:50,150 --> 00:36:48,160 the conspirator and it was me it was my 991 00:36:52,230 --> 00:36:50,160 surface level self it was my ego 992 00:36:54,390 --> 00:36:52,240 whatever you know discipline you you 993 00:36:56,710 --> 00:36:54,400 want to pull from it was that word it 994 00:36:58,710 --> 00:36:56,720 was that part of myself that couldn't 995 00:37:01,349 --> 00:36:58,720 face traumas that i dealt with so i 996 00:37:03,190 --> 00:37:01,359 created patterns and walls whatever 997 00:37:05,109 --> 00:37:03,200 but it seems like 998 00:37:07,190 --> 00:37:05,119 it's such a very 999 00:37:09,589 --> 00:37:07,200 you know conscious experience going on 1000 00:37:12,150 --> 00:37:09,599 here in the world when you see that kind 1001 00:37:14,550 --> 00:37:12,160 of as above so below 1002 00:37:16,390 --> 00:37:14,560 structure of everything that almost i 1003 00:37:19,030 --> 00:37:16,400 call it fractal i talk about fractal 1004 00:37:22,230 --> 00:37:19,040 geometry a lot because not only is that 1005 00:37:25,510 --> 00:37:22,240 a fan favorite of of the psychedelic 1006 00:37:27,910 --> 00:37:25,520 visual stimulus that occurs but along 1007 00:37:30,790 --> 00:37:27,920 with those visual cool hallucinations 1008 00:37:33,109 --> 00:37:30,800 comes a a gnosis of a deep philosophy 1009 00:37:33,990 --> 00:37:33,119 about reality and how everything seems 1010 00:37:36,630 --> 00:37:34,000 to be 1011 00:37:39,829 --> 00:37:36,640 fractal on some level that behind that 1012 00:37:42,950 --> 00:37:39,839 jesus or buddha there is this thing 1013 00:37:44,710 --> 00:37:42,960 that exists that is just self-similar on 1014 00:37:46,630 --> 00:37:44,720 every level and that's why people say 1015 00:37:49,510 --> 00:37:46,640 you know god is everywhere god is within 1016 00:37:51,190 --> 00:37:49,520 you or you can find god anywhere it's 1017 00:37:55,270 --> 00:37:51,200 why terence mckenna came back from a 1018 00:37:57,349 --> 00:37:55,280 psychedelic trip saying a song is a song 1019 00:37:59,510 --> 00:37:57,359 to us that made no sense and it didn't 1020 00:38:02,150 --> 00:37:59,520 have any profound impact on me when he 1021 00:38:03,589 --> 00:38:02,160 told it everybody laughs in the audience 1022 00:38:05,349 --> 00:38:03,599 because they get it that he's saying 1023 00:38:08,310 --> 00:38:05,359 that literally the truth is within 1024 00:38:10,630 --> 00:38:08,320 everything it's just it's fractal and it 1025 00:38:11,829 --> 00:38:10,640 it could mean a million different things 1026 00:38:14,230 --> 00:38:11,839 i don't know we kind of jumped around 1027 00:38:17,670 --> 00:38:14,240 there but 1028 00:38:20,390 --> 00:38:17,680 spot on here's the dilemma we face 1029 00:38:23,990 --> 00:38:20,400 the reality that you're probing so 1030 00:38:25,349 --> 00:38:24,000 deeply that few people are willing to go 1031 00:38:26,470 --> 00:38:25,359 here's where i was going to go with that 1032 00:38:28,950 --> 00:38:26,480 okay 1033 00:38:30,550 --> 00:38:28,960 the the truth mixed with the lie thing 1034 00:38:34,470 --> 00:38:30,560 that you said 1035 00:38:37,270 --> 00:38:34,480 hey if i'm a they and my job is [\h__\h] 1036 00:38:39,430 --> 00:38:37,280 socially engineering people and you want 1037 00:38:40,950 --> 00:38:39,440 me on that wall you need me on that wall 1038 00:38:44,390 --> 00:38:40,960 kind of thing which is 1039 00:38:46,470 --> 00:38:44,400 true too you know we we do live 1040 00:38:49,430 --> 00:38:46,480 under the red white and blue 1041 00:38:52,390 --> 00:38:49,440 and all the [\h__\h] that we've done we own 1042 00:38:54,470 --> 00:38:52,400 that to a certain extent and we own 1043 00:38:56,150 --> 00:38:54,480 and have to own and have to acknowledge 1044 00:38:59,589 --> 00:38:56,160 that people are doing 1045 00:39:03,109 --> 00:38:59,599 mean nasty horribly evil stuff in our 1046 00:39:05,349 --> 00:39:03,119 name yes those people have perfected 1047 00:39:08,150 --> 00:39:05,359 misinformation disinformation mixing 1048 00:39:11,510 --> 00:39:08,160 truth and lie bam that's a recipe for 1049 00:39:13,510 --> 00:39:11,520 what is most effective for to get this 1050 00:39:15,670 --> 00:39:13,520 group from a to b 1051 00:39:18,310 --> 00:39:15,680 i am reluctant 1052 00:39:20,870 --> 00:39:18,320 to connect that to 1053 00:39:22,790 --> 00:39:20,880 the deeper experience that you had i 1054 00:39:25,270 --> 00:39:22,800 understand that at some level it all has 1055 00:39:27,349 --> 00:39:25,280 to be connected but i'm reluctant to go 1056 00:39:30,630 --> 00:39:27,359 there because i hear what you're saying 1057 00:39:32,630 --> 00:39:30,640 on a spiritual level which is fantastic 1058 00:39:34,870 --> 00:39:32,640 because what i hear you saying is 1059 00:39:35,829 --> 00:39:34,880 as soon as i start pointing at someone 1060 00:39:37,510 --> 00:39:35,839 else 1061 00:39:39,349 --> 00:39:37,520 i need to do the old thing and look 1062 00:39:42,550 --> 00:39:39,359 about yes 1063 00:39:44,790 --> 00:39:42,560 how is that if i'm able to see that mean 1064 00:39:47,589 --> 00:39:44,800 nasty evil [\h__\h] 1065 00:39:49,829 --> 00:39:47,599 that means it's in me if i'm able to 1066 00:39:53,190 --> 00:39:49,839 process that dmt 1067 00:39:55,829 --> 00:39:53,200 that means that my body is 1068 00:39:57,829 --> 00:39:55,839 capable of processing otherwise it was a 1069 00:39:59,430 --> 00:39:57,839 total foreign substance nothing would 1070 00:40:02,069 --> 00:39:59,440 happen or something you know else would 1071 00:40:04,550 --> 00:40:02,079 happen so i but you get what i'm saying 1072 00:40:06,470 --> 00:40:04,560 i think i do i think i do so 1073 00:40:07,430 --> 00:40:06,480 let me let me try to rephrase under the 1074 00:40:11,190 --> 00:40:07,440 the 1075 00:40:14,069 --> 00:40:11,200 it's like 1076 00:40:16,870 --> 00:40:14,079 perhaps what i was experiencing and kind 1077 00:40:19,349 --> 00:40:16,880 of you know mirroring mirroring out to 1078 00:40:23,510 --> 00:40:19,359 the elites or whatever with my own inner 1079 00:40:25,670 --> 00:40:23,520 behavior is um is just simply the ego or 1080 00:40:27,589 --> 00:40:25,680 something it's the bad behavior that i 1081 00:40:29,910 --> 00:40:27,599 have which can 1082 00:40:31,910 --> 00:40:29,920 naturally be compared to the 1083 00:40:34,390 --> 00:40:31,920 macro of the bad behavior that is in 1084 00:40:35,589 --> 00:40:34,400 collective society 1085 00:40:38,390 --> 00:40:35,599 i was kind of saying i was kind of 1086 00:40:40,309 --> 00:40:38,400 saying something slightly different okay 1087 00:40:41,349 --> 00:40:40,319 well it's it's not contradictory it's 1088 00:40:43,589 --> 00:40:41,359 just that 1089 00:40:46,870 --> 00:40:43,599 as we're trying to navigate 1090 00:40:49,589 --> 00:40:46,880 this world this space and particularly 1091 00:40:51,270 --> 00:40:49,599 what we're trying to do you know 1092 00:40:53,829 --> 00:40:51,280 uh you and i 1093 00:40:55,829 --> 00:40:53,839 is we're trying to 1094 00:40:59,430 --> 00:40:55,839 live in these two worlds 1095 00:41:01,829 --> 00:40:59,440 and i'm saying that i don't think 1096 00:41:04,950 --> 00:41:01,839 right now i'm willing to 1097 00:41:06,870 --> 00:41:04,960 uh say that my feet aren't planted in 1098 00:41:08,790 --> 00:41:06,880 two worlds because that's how it seems 1099 00:41:11,190 --> 00:41:08,800 to me and the deeper spiritual 1100 00:41:13,829 --> 00:41:11,200 understandings you came to about truth 1101 00:41:17,190 --> 00:41:13,839 and lie i think are beautiful but i 1102 00:41:18,630 --> 00:41:17,200 think they are separate from 1103 00:41:23,030 --> 00:41:18,640 at least at this point from my 1104 00:41:25,510 --> 00:41:23,040 understanding of what that guy 1105 00:41:26,950 --> 00:41:25,520 who's running these 1106 00:41:29,589 --> 00:41:26,960 psyops 1107 00:41:31,750 --> 00:41:29,599 what he's doing and so i just want to 1108 00:41:33,829 --> 00:41:31,760 for a minute kind of remove the 1109 00:41:34,710 --> 00:41:33,839 spiritual part of that and just look at 1110 00:41:37,990 --> 00:41:34,720 the 1111 00:41:40,550 --> 00:41:38,000 if i was charged with doing that job and 1112 00:41:41,430 --> 00:41:40,560 i was like into it and wanted to do that 1113 00:41:45,990 --> 00:41:41,440 job 1114 00:41:46,790 --> 00:41:46,000 this is how i do it i mix information 1115 00:41:48,390 --> 00:41:46,800 with 1116 00:41:51,109 --> 00:41:48,400 false information 1117 00:41:52,950 --> 00:41:51,119 i'd have exaggerated information i'd 1118 00:41:55,510 --> 00:41:52,960 somehow find like 1119 00:41:57,589 --> 00:41:55,520 when i see people take off on 1120 00:42:00,870 --> 00:41:57,599 flat earth or tataria 1121 00:42:03,190 --> 00:42:00,880 i'd subtly kind of really promote that 1122 00:42:04,630 --> 00:42:03,200 because that's going to divide this 1123 00:42:06,230 --> 00:42:04,640 group in a way that they don't even 1124 00:42:08,069 --> 00:42:06,240 realize because people are going to be 1125 00:42:12,069 --> 00:42:08,079 forced to choose you know is it good 1126 00:42:14,390 --> 00:42:12,079 so there's all these techniques uh 1127 00:42:17,910 --> 00:42:14,400 plays in the playbook uh part of the 1128 00:42:20,550 --> 00:42:17,920 trade that when when we shift over and 1129 00:42:21,670 --> 00:42:20,560 we're talking about that i think we have 1130 00:42:23,190 --> 00:42:21,680 to kind of 1131 00:42:24,870 --> 00:42:23,200 say okay i'm turning my back on the 1132 00:42:26,870 --> 00:42:24,880 spiritual because i'm not assuming that 1133 00:42:29,510 --> 00:42:26,880 these guys are working on that level 1134 00:42:31,430 --> 00:42:29,520 they're just doing their freaking job 1135 00:42:33,589 --> 00:42:31,440 okay okay okay i like this i like where 1136 00:42:35,349 --> 00:42:33,599 we're going here because okay 1137 00:42:37,990 --> 00:42:35,359 so 1138 00:42:40,150 --> 00:42:38,000 maybe it's more like 1139 00:42:42,069 --> 00:42:40,160 what they're doing out there 1140 00:42:44,710 --> 00:42:42,079 is simply influencing our personal 1141 00:42:47,109 --> 00:42:44,720 consciousness to act in that way 1142 00:42:49,270 --> 00:42:47,119 sometimes you know maybe that's why i'm 1143 00:42:51,109 --> 00:42:49,280 making that connection but at the same 1144 00:42:53,030 --> 00:42:51,119 time also we kind of can go back to what 1145 00:42:54,630 --> 00:42:53,040 we were saying before about how 1146 00:42:56,230 --> 00:42:54,640 you know just because we can relate 1147 00:42:58,790 --> 00:42:56,240 everything outwards to the greater 1148 00:43:00,550 --> 00:42:58,800 fractal reality of spirituality or 1149 00:43:02,069 --> 00:43:00,560 something like that doesn't mean that we 1150 00:43:03,510 --> 00:43:02,079 don't have to go to work tomorrow 1151 00:43:05,910 --> 00:43:03,520 doesn't mean we don't have to deal with 1152 00:43:07,910 --> 00:43:05,920 this physical situation that maybe when 1153 00:43:10,150 --> 00:43:07,920 we take a big step back it's this 1154 00:43:12,150 --> 00:43:10,160 beautiful mosaic but when you get up 1155 00:43:14,150 --> 00:43:12,160 close there's individual free will 1156 00:43:17,030 --> 00:43:14,160 that's pushing and pulling and making 1157 00:43:19,990 --> 00:43:17,040 their own decisions that impact everyone 1158 00:43:21,670 --> 00:43:20,000 else and can really screw things up 1159 00:43:22,550 --> 00:43:21,680 does that sound a little bit more on 1160 00:43:25,510 --> 00:43:22,560 point 1161 00:43:27,750 --> 00:43:25,520 yeah exactly and you know it's partly 1162 00:43:30,470 --> 00:43:27,760 because i come at this from a business 1163 00:43:32,950 --> 00:43:30,480 background in that you know that was my 1164 00:43:35,190 --> 00:43:32,960 that was my focus for my life it's like 1165 00:43:37,910 --> 00:43:35,200 hey man i want to make the dough you 1166 00:43:40,470 --> 00:43:37,920 know so i was computer science guy and 1167 00:43:42,390 --> 00:43:40,480 then i got an mba and then i started a 1168 00:43:45,349 --> 00:43:42,400 tech company 1169 00:43:47,589 --> 00:43:45,359 and i was all in it because 1170 00:43:51,349 --> 00:43:47,599 i had this spiritual side of me and i 1171 00:43:52,230 --> 00:43:51,359 was doing yoga yogananda classes and all 1172 00:43:54,870 --> 00:43:52,240 that 1173 00:43:56,790 --> 00:43:54,880 but to me money was clarity i would 1174 00:43:59,750 --> 00:43:56,800 never have known 1175 00:44:02,230 --> 00:43:59,760 my own [\h__\h] unless i could 1176 00:44:03,510 --> 00:44:02,240 get to some point where like okay 1177 00:44:05,109 --> 00:44:03,520 got that 1178 00:44:06,790 --> 00:44:05,119 check now 1179 00:44:09,270 --> 00:44:06,800 explore this other stuff 1180 00:44:11,349 --> 00:44:09,280 in the realm the only way that i was 1181 00:44:13,190 --> 00:44:11,359 able to be successful in business 1182 00:44:15,829 --> 00:44:13,200 was by just doing the same thing that i 1183 00:44:18,230 --> 00:44:15,839 do now just learning [\h__\h] you know i i 1184 00:44:21,910 --> 00:44:18,240 had the educational stuff but my real 1185 00:44:22,870 --> 00:44:21,920 education came from books from seminars 1186 00:44:24,870 --> 00:44:22,880 from 1187 00:44:26,710 --> 00:44:24,880 youtube's before there were youtubes you 1188 00:44:28,710 --> 00:44:26,720 know and i was always and i had them in

understanding 1206 00:45:17,990 --> 00:45:15,440 what that means in terms of black magic 1207 00:45:20,550 --> 00:45:18,000 or you're going to go down and think 1208 00:45:22,390 --> 00:45:20,560

showed up for work they 1244 00:46:49,829 --> 00:46:47,119 didn't deserve that so do what you have 1245 00:46:52,870 --> 00:46:49,839 to do which we've told every 1246 00:46:55,670 --> 00:46:52,880 soldier and how our country got to do 1247 00:46:57,270 --> 00:46:55,680 what you have to do 1248 00:46:59,109 --> 00:46:57,280 the point is 1249 00:47:01,349 --> 00:46:59,119 how do we understand that how do we 1250 00:47:04,230 --> 00:47:01,359 process that and then how do we process 1251 00:47:07,109 --> 00:47:04,240 damien eccles too 1252 00:47:08,390 --> 00:47:07,119 that was awesome man because you're you 1253 00:47:10,870 --> 00:47:08,400 kind of 1254 00:47:12,390 --> 00:47:10,880 paint the picture that this left-hand 1255 00:47:15,190 --> 00:47:12,400 right-hand path 1256 00:47:17,829 --> 00:47:15,200 is kind of built into a lot of the act 1257 00:47:20,069 --> 00:47:17,839 the everyday actions the the constant 1258 00:47:21,910 --> 00:47:20,079 human behavior we see everywhere i 1259 00:47:23,990 --> 00:47:21,920 wonder if it's it can be split right 1260 00:47:26,150 --> 00:47:24,000 down the middle in that case like do 1261 00:47:28,390 --> 00:47:26,160 you know how we're all doing left hand 1262 00:47:29,829 --> 00:47:28,400 or right hand path magic probably both 1263 00:47:31,349 --> 00:47:29,839 at times 1264 00:47:33,829 --> 00:47:31,359 you know without even knowing it without 1265 00:47:36,230 --> 00:47:33,839 having any background or education into 1266 00:47:39,109 --> 00:47:36,240 magic or even thinking it's all hui 1267 00:47:41,829 --> 00:47:39,119 we're still doing it you know it's crazy 1268 00:47:43,750 --> 00:47:41,839 and you know to to add a little bit of i 1269 00:47:46,710 --> 00:47:43,760 guess bones to that so it doesn't sound 1270 00:47:49,589 --> 00:47:46,720 totally abstract if you read vos's book 1271 00:47:51,270 --> 00:47:49,599 the first thing he says is that one 1272 00:47:53,750 --> 00:47:51,280 everybody talks too much in these 1273 00:47:56,150 --> 00:47:53,760 situations negotiating situations or 1274 00:47:57,990 --> 00:47:56,160 selling situations they're parallel talk 1275 00:47:59,109 --> 00:47:58,000 too much 1276 00:48:01,990 --> 00:47:59,119 silence 1277 00:48:04,309 --> 00:48:02,000 right so oh well that's not black magic 1278 00:48:07,750 --> 00:48:04,319 ah it's a technique now 1279 00:48:11,349 --> 00:48:07,760 the next exactly the the the next thing 1280 00:48:14,069 --> 00:48:11,359 is empathetic questioning right so and 1281 00:48:16,309 --> 00:48:14,079 and but then he gets much deeper so you 1282 00:48:18,870 --> 00:48:16,319 know making that person feel heard we've 1283 00:48:21,190 --> 00:48:18,880 all heard of this stuff 1284 00:48:23,829 --> 00:48:21,200 once you get into it deeper and deeper 1285 00:48:27,589 --> 00:48:23,839 you at some point have to acknowledge 1286 00:48:31,430 --> 00:48:27,599 he's trying to manipulate consciousness 1287 00:48:33,430 --> 00:48:31,440 yes in order to get to his end game in 1288 00:48:34,470 --> 00:48:33,440 the same way that 1289 00:48:36,309 --> 00:48:34,480 for those 1290 00:48:38,150 --> 00:48:36,319 out there that you know are into a lot 1291 00:48:40,309 --> 00:48:38,160 of the topics i talk about but maybe not 1292 00:48:42,549 --> 00:48:40,319 the magic side of it you know this is a 1293 00:48:45,589 --> 00:48:42,559 really important part that 1294 00:48:47,990 --> 00:48:45,599 manipulation is literally you're always 1295 00:48:49,910 --> 00:48:48,000 after some goal in the material world 1296 00:48:50,870 --> 00:48:49,920 whether it's affection from someone that 1297 00:48:52,470 --> 00:48:50,880 you don't deserve because you're 1298 00:48:55,349 --> 00:48:52,480 treating them horribly whatever the 1299 00:48:57,829 --> 00:48:55,359 situation it's a material gain in this 1300 00:48:59,910 --> 00:48:57,839 experience so you're literally 1301 00:49:01,270 --> 00:48:59,920 doing magic whether you believe in it or 1302 00:49:03,750 --> 00:49:01,280 not you're literally taking something 1303 00:49:05,750 --> 00:49:03,760 that exists in the consciousness and 1304 00:49:08,790 --> 00:49:05,760 bringing it into this world and we're 1305 00:49:09,829 --> 00:49:08,800 doing that all the time and it's so 1306 00:49:12,710 --> 00:49:09,839 subtle 1307 00:49:15,190 --> 00:49:12,720 that it's just ignored it's not believed 1308 00:49:17,109 --> 00:49:15,200 in it's laughed at and like i said to 1309 00:49:17,910 --> 00:49:17,119 you in that random little rant i sent 1310 00:49:22,790 --> 00:49:17,920 you 1311 00:49:25,430 --> 00:49:22,800 coming out of sticks and stuff like that 1312 00:49:27,030 --> 00:49:25,440 it's this parody because that's that way 1313 00:49:28,549 --> 00:49:27,040 no one really recognizes what's 1314 00:49:30,230 --> 00:49:28,559 happening all the time 1315 00:49:33,349 --> 00:49:30,240 my big thing a couple years ago i wrote 1316 00:49:37,430 --> 00:49:33,359 this book rival matters my point with 1317 00:49:39,990 --> 00:49:37,440 why evil matters was to really say okay 1318 00:49:42,230 --> 00:49:40,000 consciousness is conspiratorial that 1319 00:49:44,470 --> 00:49:42,240 scientific materialism insists that you 1320 00:49:46,230 --> 00:49:44,480 you know that's that's out the window no 1321 00:49:48,630 --> 00:49:46,240 one really believed that but this 1322 00:49:50,390 --> 00:49:48,640 extended consciousness realm 1323 00:49:52,549 --> 00:49:50,400 now brings us to 1324 00:49:54,710 --> 00:49:52,559 the real question we have in our life 1325 00:49:57,910 --> 00:49:54,720 how should i live my life what are the 1326 00:49:59,670 --> 00:49:57,920 what is right action is there such a 1327 00:50:01,750 --> 00:49:59,680 thing as right action hey is the right 1328 00:50:03,349 --> 00:50:01,760 or wrong hey maybe you know it's all 1329 00:50:05,349 --> 00:50:03,359 relative kind of thing 1330 00:50:07,910 --> 00:50:05,359 and the way that i think what brings 1331 00:50:10,390 --> 00:50:07,920 that into focus better than anything 1332 00:50:11,750 --> 00:50:10,400 else is evil 1333 00:50:14,150 --> 00:50:11,760 and that's another one it immediately 1334 00:50:17,349 --> 00:50:14,160 triggers people to go no there's no such 1335 00:50:19,750 --> 00:50:17,359 thing as evil evil is a social construct 1336 00:50:21,990 --> 00:50:19,760 and it's what you define you know 1337 00:50:23,510 --> 00:50:22,000 whatever you think it is it is and it's 1338 00:50:25,990 --> 00:50:23,520

00:52:51,760 could explore that for hours and hours 1403 00:52:55,430 --> 00:52:53,200 as a root 1404 00:52:57,829 --> 00:52:55,440 problem in society and civilization and 1405 00:52:58,950 --> 00:52:57,839 history in a way it it kind of rolls us 1406 00:53:01,750 --> 00:52:58,960 back to the very beginning of this 1407 00:53:04,470 --> 00:53:01,760 conversation it's like everyone has an

that and what they don't 1420 00:53:35,190 --> 00:53:32,720 realize as soon as you have anchored 1421 00:53:36,309 --> 00:53:35,200 that and driven that stake in the ground 1422 00:53:38,710 --> 00:53:36,319 now 1423 00:53:40,390 --> 00:53:38,720 you're playing in a different 1424 00:53:42,470 --> 00:53:40,400 field and it's the one that we've been 1425 00:53:45,030 --> 00:53:42,480 talking about here like so 1426 00:53:47,030 --> 00:53:45,040 so what does that really mean now that 1427 00:53:48,390 --> 00:53:47,040 there is evil and what if we atta what 1428 00:53:50,950 --> 00:53:48,400 if we connect that with what we said 1429 00:53:54,150 --> 00:53:50,960 that hey this extended consciousness 1430 00:53:56,390 --> 00:53:54,160 realm that seems real too 1431 00:53:58,150 --> 00:53:56,400 so is there evil there 1432 00:54:00,390 --> 00:53:58,160 and there's evil here 1433 00:54:02,790 --> 00:54:00,400 and there's good and now 1434 00:54:04,230 --> 00:54:02,800 now i'm ready to talk you know now i'm 1435 00:54:06,309 --> 00:54:04,240 ready to talk 1436 00:54:08,230 --> 00:54:06,319 hell yeah man yeah this is a lot this is 1437 00:54:10,309 --> 00:54:08,240 a lot to unpack um 1438 00:54:12,549 --> 00:54:10,319 but so i would like to clarify because i 1439 00:54:14,870 --> 00:54:12,559 tend to generalize too much sometimes i 1440 00:54:16,630 --> 00:54:14,880 would like to rewrite what i said about 1441 00:54:18,549 --> 00:54:16,640 everybody has their their puzzle piece 1442 00:54:20,069 --> 00:54:18,559 that matters i would like to say 1443 00:54:22,230 --> 00:54:20,079 that everyone that's 1444 00:54:26,309 --> 00:54:22,240 in this line of questioning and everyone 1445 00:54:27,670 --> 00:54:26,319 that's pursuing wisdom and we we may be 1446 00:54:29,829 --> 00:54:27,680 off here and there maybe i'm talking 1447 00:54:31,829 --> 00:54:29,839 about our community perhaps or even the 1448 00:54:33,910 --> 00:54:31,839 listeners people that are asking these 1449 00:54:35,910 --> 00:54:33,920 questions and going against what society 1450 00:54:38,390 --> 00:54:35,920 would like them to do and they're taking 1451 00:54:40,309 --> 00:54:38,400 that route of asking weird questions and 1452 00:54:41,990 --> 00:54:40,319 finding you know seeking i would say 1453 00:54:43,589 --> 00:54:42,000 that each one of us is doing that 1454 00:54:45,910 --> 00:54:43,599 because of something inside that tells 1455 00:54:47,349 --> 00:54:45,920 us we have to go against this grain and 1456 00:54:49,430 --> 00:54:47,359 i think that's the puzzle piece i'm 1457 00:54:51,829 --> 00:54:49,440 talking about so no you know someone in 1458 00:54:53,270 --> 00:54:51,839 my life that i you know won't name that 1459 00:54:54,870 --> 00:54:53,280 doesn't like any of this stuff yeah 1460 00:54:56,069 --> 00:54:54,880 their puzzle piece if they they probably 1461 00:54:58,150 --> 00:54:56,079 don't have one or it's been 1462 00:55:00,470 --> 00:54:58,160 disintegrated or maybe they traded it 1463 00:55:02,470 --> 00:55:00,480 for something you know but yeah i would 1464 00:55:04,470 --> 00:55:02,480 like to clarify that and maybe scale it 1465 00:55:05,670 --> 00:55:04,480 down a bit that there's those among us 1466 00:55:10,150 --> 00:55:05,680 that 1467 00:55:12,470 --> 00:55:10,160 search for something i guess and others 1468 00:55:13,750 --> 00:55:12,480 that don't you know i know that that 1469 00:55:15,670 --> 00:55:13,760 doesn't really 1470 00:55:17,670 --> 00:55:15,680 necessarily respond to everything you 1471 00:55:19,190 --> 00:55:17,680 said but you said a lot there um but 1472 00:55:21,670 --> 00:55:19,200 that's just to kick it off a little bit 1473 00:55:24,150 --> 00:55:21,680 you know well i'd also 1474 00:55:25,510 --> 00:55:24,160 tie it back to and we said this before 1475 00:55:27,349 --> 00:55:25,520 i'm not against 1476 00:55:29,829 --> 00:55:27,359 everyone has a puzzle piece because on 1477 00:55:31,589 --> 00:55:29,839 some level from a spiritual perspective 1478 00:55:33,990 --> 00:55:31,599 like we were talking about 1479 00:55:35,829 --> 00:55:34,000 that's undeniable i mean everyone has a 1480 00:55:37,349 --> 00:55:35,839 puzzle piece for their puzzle you know 1481 00:55:38,309 --> 00:55:37,359 sometimes it gets destroyed when they're 1482 00:55:40,309 --> 00:55:38,319 children 1483 00:55:41,190 --> 00:55:40,319 or well you know with trauma and all 1484 00:55:43,270 --> 00:55:41,200 that 1485 00:55:44,870 --> 00:55:43,280 or you know it 1486 00:55:47,190 --> 00:55:44,880 you know as all these 1487 00:55:49,430 --> 00:55:47,200 analogies we could do or it gets hidden 1488 00:55:51,190 --> 00:55:49,440 and then the their job is to rediscover 1489 00:55:52,950 --> 00:55:51,200 it you know and you can say all this but 1490 00:55:54,710 --> 00:55:52,960 and i don't want to demean that or sound 1491 00:55:55,430 --> 00:55:54,720 like i'm being you know demeaning 1492 00:55:57,589 --> 00:55:55,440 because 1493 00:55:59,349 --> 00:55:57,599 like the the part that we connected with 1494 00:56:01,270 --> 00:55:59,359 at the beginning is that 1495 00:56:03,109 --> 00:56:01,280 the spiritual journey sounds trite but 1496 00:56:05,270 --> 00:56:03,119 it's ultimately 1497 00:56:06,710 --> 00:56:05,280 it's true everything we run across it so 1498 00:56:08,390 --> 00:56:06,720 right i'm on this spiritual journey 1499 00:56:10,470 --> 00:56:08,400 you're on the spiritual journey and the 1500 00:56:12,470 --> 00:56:10,480 person who's clueless you know neil 1501 00:56:13,510 --> 00:56:12,480 degrasse tyson is on a spiritual journey 1502 00:56:16,069 --> 00:56:13,520 and you know that's one of the things 1503 00:56:18,069 --> 00:56:16,079 that that's one of my other kind of pet 1504 00:56:20,789 --> 00:56:18,079 peeve little pet projects right now is 1505 00:56:23,589 --> 00:56:20,799 rich spiritual lives how does this world 1506 00:56:26,950 --> 00:56:23,599 look like if we accept this 1507 00:56:29,670 --> 00:56:26,960 kind of obvious fact once you process it 1508 00:56:30,390 --> 00:56:29,680 is we're all living rich spiritual lives 1509 00:56:32,069 --> 00:56:30,400 right 1510 00:56:35,109 --> 00:56:32,079 so that guy 1511 00:56:37,670 --> 00:56:35,119 who was looking at that kid 1512 00:56:40,710 --> 00:56:37,680 he's living a rich spiritual life that's 1513 00:56:43,990 --> 00:56:40,720 his voice the voice inside he's got the 1514 00:56:46,630 --> 00:56:44,000 same voices not the same but he has the 1515 00:56:48,870 --> 00:56:46,640 voices and he's wrestling with them and 1516 00:56:52,150 --> 00:56:48,880 human musk is wrestling with them and 1517 00:56:54,789 --> 00:56:52,160 bill gates and they're not just and yeah 1518 00:56:56,950 --> 00:56:54,799 they're human totally but where i think 1519 00:57:00,150 --> 00:56:56,960 we need to go with that is 1520 00:57:02,870 --> 00:57:00,160 they're leading rich spiritual lives 1521 00:57:05,349 --> 00:57:02,880 this that implies this extended 1522 00:57:08,870 --> 00:57:05,359 consciousness realm that like you tapped 1523 00:57:10,390 --> 00:57:08,880 into with your experience like 1524 00:57:11,910 --> 00:57:10,400 you you already said this so i'm just 1525 00:57:13,589 --> 00:57:11,920 going to kind of bring it back to the 1526 00:57:17,030 --> 00:57:13,599 surface 1527 00:57:19,910 --> 00:57:17,040 is your understanding that that extended 1528 00:57:20,870 --> 00:57:19,920 realm that you were in is somehow 1529 00:57:23,270 --> 00:57:20,880 gone 1530 00:57:25,270 --> 00:57:23,280 shut off from you now that you're back 1531 00:57:28,549 --> 00:57:25,280 or is it still connected to you in some 1532 00:57:30,870 --> 00:57:28,559 way oh yeah i guess well the way it felt 1533 00:57:32,390 --> 00:57:30,880 to me was that it faded like it was like 1534 00:57:35,109 --> 00:57:32,400 okay we're gonna we're gonna go back 1535 00:57:37,829 --> 00:57:35,119 into the shadows now but it's always 1536 00:57:39,510 --> 00:57:37,839 here it's always around you it's 1537 00:57:41,109 --> 00:57:39,520 constant it's like terence i'll bring 1538 00:57:42,470 --> 00:57:41,119 them up again because you know how you 1539 00:57:45,430 --> 00:57:42,480 said you were always listening in the 1540 00:57:47,670 --> 00:57:45,440 car man i spent my entire 20s 1541 00:57:50,150 --> 00:57:47,680 just doing my job and listening to 1542 00:57:51,670 --> 00:57:50,160 endless lectures from people i wanted to 1543 00:57:53,670 --> 00:57:51,680 hear about and terrence was one of them 1544 00:57:55,990 --> 00:57:53,680 that i just happened to have like 15 1545 00:57:58,789 --> 00:57:56,000 hours of lectures and he once said about 1546 00:58:01,510 --> 00:57:58,799 how someone came in the room during the 1547 00:58:04,390 --> 00:58:01,520 middle of a dmt trip and it kind of sent 1548 00:58:06,069 --> 00:58:04,400 his consciousness right back to normal 1549 00:58:08,789 --> 00:58:06,079 everyday reality kind of trying to 1550 00:58:10,549 --> 00:58:08,799 address this friend that walked in but 1551 00:58:13,829 --> 00:58:10,559 the elves were still hanging from the 1552 00:58:15,349 --> 00:58:13,839 curtains and they were going oh shh 1553 00:58:17,589 --> 00:58:15,359 you know it's like it and of course it's 1554 00:58:19,270 --> 00:58:17,599 a reflection of how he felt was on their 1555 00:58:21,510 --> 00:58:19,280 faces and everything 1556 00:58:23,349 --> 00:58:21,520 it's always there it's always a part of 1557 00:58:26,069 --> 00:58:23,359 us and uh yeah that's where my 1558 00:58:27,750 --> 00:58:26,079 questioning has been a lot lately in 1559 00:58:29,670 --> 00:58:27,760 regards to near-death experience and 1560 00:58:31,670 --> 00:58:29,680 stuff like that because again for some 1561 00:58:33,270 --> 00:58:31,680 reason unlike some of my friends that 1562 00:58:36,630 --> 00:58:33,280 would take the same damn bag of 1563 00:58:39,349 --> 00:58:36,640 mushrooms with me i had this 1564 00:58:41,109 --> 00:58:39,359 profound perspective given to me that 1565 00:58:41,910 --> 00:58:41,119 directly relates to a lot of what i hear 1566 00:58:45,270 --> 00:58:41,920 from 1567 00:58:48,230 --> 00:58:45,280 written about near-death experience and 1568 00:58:50,069 --> 00:58:48,240 stuff um so maybe i just need to go back 1569 00:58:52,390 --> 00:58:50,079 into those realms again and refresh 1570 00:58:54,230 --> 00:58:52,400 myself maybe my ego will get slapped 1571 00:58:56,549 --> 00:58:54,240 around like you thought this was just 1572 00:58:59,190 --> 00:58:56,559 inside your head again how long have you 1573 00:59:00,950 --> 00:58:59,200 been away from this place come on 1574 00:59:03,510 --> 00:59:00,960 you know maybe a refresher this is why 1575 00:59:05,589 --> 00:59:03,520 people meditate right keep that state of 1576 00:59:07,990 --> 00:59:05,599 mind more and more present in their 1577 00:59:09,349 --> 00:59:08,000 lives i've heard that before maybe it 1578 00:59:10,950 --> 00:59:09,359 works 1579 00:59:12,390 --> 00:59:10,960 well it's interesting what you're saying 1580 00:59:14,069 --> 00:59:12,400 because you're talking about the 1581 00:59:16,789 --> 00:59:14,079 integration process 1582 00:59:18,150 --> 00:59:16,799 and then you're also talking about 1583 00:59:19,589 --> 00:59:18,160 the fact that whether you integrate or 1584 00:59:21,910 --> 00:59:19,599 not you're integrated you know what i 1585 00:59:23,589 --> 00:59:21,920 mean so i was like yes isn't that such a 1586 00:59:26,150 --> 00:59:23,599 common theme in near-death experience 1587 00:59:27,910 --> 00:59:26,160 where they say all these rules all these 1588 00:59:30,230 --> 00:59:27,920 spiritual oh you have to do this or 1589 00:59:32,390 --> 00:59:30,240 you'll never escape the the 1590 00:59:34,150 --> 00:59:32,400 you just wake up like i've heard that so 1591 00:59:35,270 --> 00:59:34,160 many times from people on my show on 1592 00:59:37,750 --> 00:59:35,280 your show 1593 00:59:40,309 --> 00:59:37,760 it's like man that throws a wrench in 1594 00:59:41,990 --> 00:59:40,319 and it really does uh you know it speaks 1595 00:59:44,390 --> 00:59:42,000 to the question you had before like is 1596 00:59:45,750 --> 00:59:44,400 there a right way to live or not because 1597 00:59:47,990 --> 00:59:45,760 a lot of near-death experience would 1598 00:59:50,549 --> 00:59:48,000 come back and say relax 1599 00:59:52,870 --> 00:59:50,559 uh you know it's okay just 1600 00:59:55,349 --> 00:59:52,880 just experience this which that has 1601 00:59:57,510 --> 00:59:55,359 implications into good or evil i would 1602 01:00:00,150 --> 00:59:57,520 say um and on the other end it's like no 1603 01:00:02,549 --> 01:00:00,160 no no you have to you know ascend to 1604 01:00:05,430 --> 01:00:02,559 this level of consciousness before you 1605 01:00:08,309 --> 01:00:05,440 die or else you're screwed or it's a 1606 01:00:11,750 --> 01:00:08,319 very dualistic again very divided 1607 01:00:14,470 --> 01:00:11,760 conquer kind of set up in it i'm in it 1608 01:00:16,710 --> 01:00:14,480 you're it we're all kind of in this like 1609 01:00:18,630 --> 01:00:16,720 where is our invincible balancing beam 1610 01:00:20,710 --> 01:00:18,640 on that issue you know 1611 01:00:22,069 --> 01:00:20,720 and oh my god 1612 01:00:24,710 --> 01:00:22,079 it's difficult it's difficult to 1613 01:00:26,549 --> 01:00:24,720 navigate and you know i to bridge into 1614 01:00:28,390 --> 01:00:26,559 something new that you and i kind of 1615 01:00:30,390 --> 01:00:28,400 wanted to talk about tactaria and flat 1616 01:00:33,109 --> 01:00:30,400 earth a little bit and again it's always 1617 01:00:33,990 --> 01:00:33,119 the same conversational in in some way 1618 01:00:36,470 --> 01:00:34,000 uh 1619 01:00:39,030 --> 01:00:36,480 that cognitive dissonance you know that 1620 01:00:41,109 --> 01:00:39,040 divide and conquer line of 1621 01:00:43,510 --> 01:00:41,119 let's get them to you know question one 1622 01:00:45,270 --> 01:00:43,520 or the other you know or you know round 1623 01:00:47,670 --> 01:00:45,280 or flat you know there's a good reason 1624 01:00:48,950 --> 01:00:47,680 to question nasa the funding behind it 1625 01:00:51,190 --> 01:00:48,960 there's good reason to question the 1626 01:00:53,430 --> 01:00:51,200 people that started it and all the 1627 01:00:55,829 --> 01:00:53,440 establishment that surrounds it and 1628 01:00:58,150 --> 01:00:55,839 there's so much good reason to question 1629 01:01:00,230 --> 01:00:58,160 nasa directly uh 1630 01:01:01,030 --> 01:01:00,240 but there's a lot of reason to hold on 1631 01:01:07,510 --> 01:01:01,040 to 1632 01:01:09,670 --> 01:01:07,520 and every religion has written that 1633 01:01:11,349 --> 01:01:09,680 about the pieces of [\h__\h] in society they 1634 01:01:12,630 --> 01:01:11,359 don't like to create they lob on to 1635 01:01:15,109 --> 01:01:12,640 what's already 1636 01:01:18,069 --> 01:01:15,119 created by the creative uh they wouldn't 1637 01:01:20,150 --> 01:01:18,079 be able to come up with some fake 1638 01:01:22,150 --> 01:01:20,160 universe i don't think i don't think 1639 01:01:24,950 --> 01:01:22,160 they would be able to come up with some 1640 01:01:27,030 --> 01:01:24,960 amazing mathematical alignment with 1641 01:01:28,950 --> 01:01:27,040 earth and the planets and the this and 1642 01:01:31,829 --> 01:01:28,960 that they're not creative enough to come 1643 01:01:33,910 --> 01:01:31,839 up with that i don't think i think if 1644 01:01:36,950 --> 01:01:33,920 anything they have to 1645 01:01:39,510 --> 01:01:36,960 skew or whatever as much as they can 1646 01:01:41,430 --> 01:01:39,520 that already exists and that's kind of 1647 01:01:43,990 --> 01:01:41,440 an extreme opinion but i don't think 1648 01:01:45,510 --> 01:01:44,000 it's extreme it's almost like so in this 1649 01:01:47,990 --> 01:01:45,520 other discussion that we're going to 1650 01:01:49,349 --> 01:01:48,000 kind of switch to 1651 01:01:51,510 --> 01:01:49,359 what i'm 1652 01:01:52,390 --> 01:01:51,520 kind of advocating for 1653 01:01:53,510 --> 01:01:52,400 is 1654 01:01:54,789 --> 01:01:53,520 science 1655 01:01:56,470 --> 01:01:54,799 okay so 1656 01:01:57,750 --> 01:01:56,480 how dare you 1657 01:02:00,870 --> 01:01:57,760 well 1658 01:02:02,549 --> 01:02:00,880 as you again as you answered you know 1659 01:02:04,630 --> 01:02:02,559 with my favorite it was my answer but 1660 01:02:06,470 --> 01:02:04,640 you picked my favorite answer is you 1661 01:02:07,510 --> 01:02:06,480 know what is science and you said it's a 1662 01:02:09,670 --> 01:02:07,520 method 1663 01:02:12,390 --> 01:02:09,680 it's not a position statement it's a 1664 01:02:14,150 --> 01:02:12,400 stepping stone that's a tool yes so 1665 01:02:18,069 --> 01:02:14,160 we've been kind of conditioned 1666 01:02:20,549 --> 01:02:18,079 especially lately i mean the most kind 1667 01:02:23,349 --> 01:02:20,559 of in your face kind of grotesque 1668 01:02:25,750 --> 01:02:23,359 example of it was with the pandemic 1669 01:02:26,789 --> 01:02:25,760 where they said you know this is science 1670 01:02:29,510 --> 01:02:26,799 this is 1671 01:02:32,470 --> 01:02:29,520 overwhelming this should end any 1672 01:02:35,910 --> 01:02:32,480 scientific debate i actually did a 1673 01:02:38,630 --> 01:02:35,920 a show on the phony mask science and a 1674 01:02:41,670 --> 01:02:38,640 guy from yale university 1675 01:02:43,829 --> 01:02:41,680 who was part of the study actually 1676 01:02:46,069 --> 01:02:43,839 was quoted as saying that 1677 01:02:49,589 --> 01:02:46,079 in the washington post 1678 01:02:52,789 --> 01:02:49,599 this should end any scientific debate 1679 01:02:55,750 --> 01:02:52,799 this is nail in the coffin research 1680 01:02:58,390 --> 01:02:55,760 this is the antithesis of the scientific 1681 01:03:01,190 --> 01:02:58,400 method yes who says this should end 1682 01:03:02,549 --> 01:03:01,200 scientific debate your spider sensei 1683 01:03:03,910 --> 01:03:02,559 should immediately be going off but i 1684 01:03:07,349 --> 01:03:03,920 digress 1685 01:03:08,870 --> 01:03:07,359 so when i kind of started skeptical eons 1686 01:03:10,630 --> 01:03:08,880 ago 1687 01:03:12,309 --> 01:03:10,640 my first 1688 01:03:13,950 --> 01:03:12,319 i was drawn to the the guys who were 1689 01:03:15,589 --> 01:03:13,960 doing science you know like the 1690 01:03:17,190 --> 01:03:15,599 parapsychology people because i was 1691 01:03:18,710 --> 01:03:17,200 interested in this question of 1692 01:03:20,950 --> 01:03:18,720 consciousness 1693 01:03:22,309 --> 01:03:20,960 and the parapsychology people are the 1694 01:03:23,910 --> 01:03:22,319 people are doing like the esp 1695 01:03:25,750 --> 01:03:23,920 experiments you know 1696 01:03:28,870 --> 01:03:25,760 i'm like okay is there anything to that 1697 01:03:32,230 --> 01:03:28,880 you know that would really kind of 1698 01:03:33,190 --> 01:03:32,240 kind of answer this question in a way 1699 01:03:35,029 --> 01:03:33,200 so 1700 01:03:37,670 --> 01:03:35,039 i got into that and 1701 01:03:39,510 --> 01:03:37,680 i had i knew science kind of but i 1702 01:03:42,230 --> 01:03:39,520 didn't you know i had to really sharpen 1703 01:03:44,230 --> 01:03:42,240 my skills i had to understand how you 1704 01:03:46,150 --> 01:03:44,240 put together a good experiment what good 1705 01:03:48,230 --> 01:03:46,160 controls will look like what fake 1706 01:03:51,349 --> 01:03:48,240 science looks like even the stuff that 1707 01:03:54,230 --> 01:03:51,359 we're inundated with all the time 1708 01:03:57,270 --> 01:03:54,240 it's an approach it's a discipline that 1709 01:03:59,750 --> 01:03:57,280 gives us a different perspective the 1710 01:04:01,029 --> 01:03:59,760 pers and it's much more of a also what 1711 01:04:02,870 --> 01:04:01,039 i'm kind of comfortable with from a 1712 01:04:04,549 --> 01:04:02,880 business standpoint from a business 1713 01:04:07,349 --> 01:04:04,559 standpoint you know what 1714 01:04:09,430 --> 01:04:07,359 you make the sale and you cash the check 1715 01:04:12,870 --> 01:04:09,440 or you do not 1716 01:04:17,829 --> 01:04:12,880 there is no in between it's did you 1717 01:04:20,630 --> 01:04:17,839 [\h__\h] get paid that is the answer so 1718 01:04:23,829 --> 01:04:20,640 science in some ways is the same 1719 01:04:24,950 --> 01:04:23,839 you know if you got a no result like i 1720 01:04:26,150 --> 01:04:24,960 don't know 1721 01:04:27,910 --> 01:04:26,160 i thought i was just in for that it 1722 01:04:30,230 --> 01:04:27,920 didn't come out like okay great you 1723 01:04:32,710 --> 01:04:30,240 gotta throw that in the scrap heap it's 1724 01:04:35,190 --> 01:04:32,720 try again you know you can try again but 1725 01:04:37,589 --> 01:04:35,200 no that's you know so 1726 01:04:39,589 --> 01:04:37,599 did you control all the variables did 1727 01:04:40,390 --> 01:04:39,599 you get a statistically significant 1728 01:04:42,309 --> 01:04:40,400 result 1729 01:04:43,990 --> 01:04:42,319 so and i'm not saying that always 1730 01:04:47,349 --> 01:04:44,000 directly applies to the stuff we're 1731 01:04:49,029 --> 01:04:47,359 talking about but i think that method 1732 01:04:52,710 --> 01:04:49,039 that we're talking about the scientific 1733 01:04:54,710 --> 01:04:52,720 method has to be applied here so 1734 01:04:57,270 --> 01:04:54,720 nasa all that stuff 1735 01:04:59,670 --> 01:04:57,280 got it understand agree you know why 1736 01:05:02,069 --> 01:04:59,680 haven't we gone back 1737 01:05:04,870 --> 01:05:02,079 you know all that yeah yeah yeah that as 1738 01:05:08,230 --> 01:05:04,880 a scientist that is noise 1739 01:05:10,390 --> 01:05:08,240 that i want to get out of the signal the 1740 01:05:14,470 --> 01:05:10,400 signal is 1741 01:05:17,029 --> 01:05:14,480 sputnik 1742 01:05:19,829 --> 01:05:17,039 1955. 1743 01:05:22,230 --> 01:05:19,839 go listen to eddie bravo 1744 01:05:25,589 --> 01:05:22,240 and his other guys i love eddie bravo's 1745 01:05:27,829 --> 01:05:25,599 fantastic jujitsu genius in so many ways 1746 01:05:29,750 --> 01:05:27,839 right but he's i don't know if he really 1747 01:05:31,990 --> 01:05:29,760 believes this [\h__\h] or or what but it's 1748 01:05:33,589 --> 01:05:32,000 like satellites are are held up by 1749 01:05:36,710 --> 01:05:33,599 helium 1750 01:05:38,789 --> 01:05:36,720 it's like this is this is like or elon 1751 01:05:39,589 --> 01:05:38,799 musk again i'm not a big elon musketeer 1752 01:05:40,950 --> 01:05:39,599 hey 1753 01:05:42,710 --> 01:05:40,960 how come 1754 01:05:44,789 --> 01:05:42,720 you know what he said flat earth he goes 1755 01:05:46,950 --> 01:05:44,799 how come there isn't any uh flat mars 1756 01:05:48,710 --> 01:05:46,960 society you know 1757 01:05:50,710 --> 01:05:48,720 because we look out we see mars we see 1758 01:05:54,710 --> 01:05:50,720 us around oh well yeah it's a 1759 01:05:57,910 --> 01:05:54,720 it it doesn't it doesn't pass 1760 01:06:00,069 --> 01:05:57,920 any kind of scientific reasonable i 1761 01:06:03,270 --> 01:06:00,079 should look at it for more than 30 1762 01:06:05,910 --> 01:06:03,280 seconds and what our community has done 1763 01:06:07,789 --> 01:06:05,920 is kind of elevated this 1764 01:06:10,470 --> 01:06:07,799 openness to 1765 01:06:13,430 --> 01:06:10,480 non-conforming ideas we've opened that 1766 01:06:16,150 --> 01:06:13,440 lens so far that we've lost the ability 1767 01:06:18,390 --> 01:06:16,160 to discern and i think the the way to 1768 01:06:21,109 --> 01:06:18,400 return to that discernment 1769 01:06:23,990 --> 01:06:21,119 is through the scientific method and 1770 01:06:26,150 --> 01:06:24,000 it's brutal but it's the way to to 1771 01:06:28,150 --> 01:06:26,160 really kind of discern and cut through 1772 01:06:29,829 --> 01:06:28,160 [\h__\h] and you've touched on a really good 1773 01:06:31,029 --> 01:06:29,839 point that in recent years we've been 1774 01:06:33,589 --> 01:06:31,039 made to 1775 01:06:36,549 --> 01:06:33,599 or or just or just willingly have 1776 01:06:38,710 --> 01:06:36,559 learned to distrust science and 1777 01:06:40,549 --> 01:06:38,720 i always use throwing the baby out with 1778 01:06:42,950 --> 01:06:40,559 the bathwater i sound like a broken 1779 01:06:45,829 --> 01:06:42,960 record but that's what a lot of people 1780 01:06:47,430 --> 01:06:45,839 do a lot of times with science is like 1781 01:06:48,870 --> 01:06:47,440 it's all failing what else are they 1782 01:06:52,390 --> 01:06:48,880 lying about 1783 01:06:53,990 --> 01:06:52,400 and i do that too i often i get that and 1784 01:06:56,470 --> 01:06:54,000 i do it with history and i do it with 1785 01:06:58,230 --> 01:06:56,480 technology a lot of different subjects 1786 01:07:00,950 --> 01:06:58,240 but again i go back to that thing where 1787 01:07:01,990 --> 01:07:00,960 i don't think they're that creative 1788 01:07:04,390 --> 01:07:02,000 one 1789 01:07:06,710 --> 01:07:04,400 um but also 1790 01:07:09,670 --> 01:07:06,720 for me with the flat earth particularly 1791 01:07:11,670 --> 01:07:09,680 it's like i really hold hold dear to 1792 01:07:13,190 --> 01:07:11,680 that as above so below principle and i 1793 01:07:15,270 --> 01:07:13,200 know that part of my community even 1794 01:07:17,670 --> 01:07:15,280 thinks that sentence is some satanic 1795 01:07:20,150 --> 01:07:17,680 thing and that's a problem too 1796 01:07:21,270 --> 01:07:20,160 but um sticking with this the as above 1797 01:07:22,950 --> 01:07:21,280 so below 1798 01:07:25,510 --> 01:07:22,960 you look at the subconscious realm you 1799 01:07:27,670 --> 01:07:25,520 look at brains compared to galaxies and 1800 01:07:28,549 --> 01:07:27,680 and you look at all that self-similar 1801 01:07:30,789 --> 01:07:28,559 behavior 1802 01:07:32,470 --> 01:07:30,799 throughout everything and it's beautiful 1803 01:07:35,029 --> 01:07:32,480 it makes up this beautiful existence 1804 01:07:37,109 --> 01:07:35,039 that we're a part of but 1805 01:07:38,950 --> 01:07:37,119 flat earth will throw out not only space 1806 01:07:40,470 --> 01:07:38,960 but also the subatomic world oh electron 1807 01:07:42,390 --> 01:07:40,480 microscopes that's all fake that's all 1808 01:07:43,589 --> 01:07:42,400 just silly stuff that they're throwing 1809 01:07:45,510 --> 01:07:43,599 in our faces 1810 01:07:48,309 --> 01:07:45,520 and i'm like come on 1811 01:07:50,950 --> 01:07:48,319 these these levels of reality that 1812 01:07:52,309 --> 01:07:50,960 exists within us as fractal as just 1813 01:07:54,150 --> 01:07:52,319 i mean that's kind of a weird way to say 1814 01:07:56,789 --> 01:07:54,160 it but 1815 01:07:59,109 --> 01:07:56,799 you can see this self-similar pattern at 1816 01:08:01,670 --> 01:07:59,119 least i did even inside myself with 1817 01:08:03,910 --> 01:08:01,680 behaviors and situations in my life from 1818 01:08:06,309 --> 01:08:03,920 the past repeating themselves in bigger 1819 01:08:08,230 --> 01:08:06,319 and better ways or worse ways depending 1820 01:08:09,750 --> 01:08:08,240 on what i was in control of negative or 1821 01:08:11,910 --> 01:08:09,760 positive doesn't matter with things that 1822 01:08:14,549 --> 01:08:11,920 go outwards through our lives on every 1823 01:08:16,470 --> 01:08:14,559 level this as above so below is such an 1824 01:08:18,309 --> 01:08:16,480 important thing to me at least 1825 01:08:20,070 --> 01:08:18,319 and to others that 1826 01:08:22,070 --> 01:08:20,080 that's where i fall with the flat earth 1827 01:08:23,749 --> 01:08:22,080 because i can get behind stuff that i 1828 01:08:24,950 --> 01:08:23,759 don't understand scientifically and go 1829 01:08:26,470 --> 01:08:24,960 home maybe 1830 01:08:28,390 --> 01:08:26,480 i don't know what a scientist would say 1831 01:08:30,630 --> 01:08:28,400 to that you know i don't know if the 1832 01:08:33,110 --> 01:08:30,640 pilot's just lying because you have a 1833 01:08:34,870 --> 01:08:33,120 camera in his face oh yeah flat totally 1834 01:08:37,110 --> 01:08:34,880 yeah we all know it up here maybe he's 1835 01:08:39,189 --> 01:08:37,120 trolling you i don't i don't know i'm 1836 01:08:41,910 --> 01:08:39,199 not going there but i can go with what i 1837 01:08:44,309 --> 01:08:41,920 feel inside and it's that 1838 01:08:46,070 --> 01:08:44,319 that flowing self-similarity that 1839 01:08:48,229 --> 01:08:46,080 happens in reality 1840 01:08:49,110 --> 01:08:48,239 but i don't know i what would you say to 1841 01:08:51,110 --> 01:08:49,120 that 1842 01:08:53,110 --> 01:08:51,120 i'd say a bunch of different 1843 01:08:54,950 --> 01:08:53,120 units no 1844 01:08:57,510 --> 01:08:54,960 i'm all over the place alex 1845 01:08:59,510 --> 01:08:57,520 no no no because no it's good stuff so 1846 01:09:01,430 --> 01:08:59,520 i'm making notes here because i want to 1847 01:09:03,510 --> 01:09:01,440 kind of respond i think 1848 01:09:04,950 --> 01:09:03,520 like one of the things that's kind of 1849 01:09:07,829 --> 01:09:04,960 difficult for all of us in this 1850 01:09:08,870 --> 01:09:07,839 community is we understand the value of 1851 01:09:10,870 --> 01:09:08,880 this 1852 01:09:12,470 --> 01:09:10,880 conspiratorial 1853 01:09:15,430 --> 01:09:12,480 paranoid 1854 01:09:18,550 --> 01:09:15,440 paradigm that we're in and we're like 1855 01:09:22,070 --> 01:09:18,560 [\h__\h] a right that is right because 1856 01:09:25,030 --> 01:09:22,080 they are lying to us and it's provable 1857 01:09:28,309 --> 01:09:25,040 over and over and over again and that is 1858 01:09:29,349 --> 01:09:28,319 important to hold on to and i think that 1859 01:09:31,269 --> 01:09:29,359 you know 1860 01:09:32,789 --> 01:09:31,279 that that's part of the rub here right 1861 01:09:34,870 --> 01:09:32,799 is because now 1862 01:09:37,110 --> 01:09:34,880 you're really it's back to this two two 1863 01:09:38,550 --> 01:09:37,120 worlds like a foot in both worlds you 1864 01:09:40,470 --> 01:09:38,560 know and 1865 01:09:42,149 --> 01:09:40,480 like now we have two different another 1866 01:09:44,149 --> 01:09:42,159 two worlds you know one world is the 1867 01:09:48,900 --> 01:09:44,159 conspiracy world it's like 1868 01:09:54,790 --> 01:09:52,309 [Laughter] 1869 01:09:57,990 --> 01:09:54,800 think conspiracy think something 1870 01:09:59,750 --> 01:09:58,000 someone's getting [\h__\h] him exactly i 1871 01:10:02,790 --> 01:09:59,760 don't want to say that yeah look at that 1872 01:10:05,590 --> 01:10:02,800 built into society come on exactly it's 1873 01:10:07,910 --> 01:10:05,600 built in so i think that conspiratorial 1874 01:10:10,630 --> 01:10:07,920 perspective is kind of essential the 1875 01:10:13,750 --> 01:10:10,640 foot the other foot though is i need 1876 01:10:15,750 --> 01:10:13,760 discernment and i need rapid discernment 1877 01:10:18,470 --> 01:10:15,760 flat earth doesn't just doesn't deserve 1878 01:10:20,870 --> 01:10:18,480 more than 30 seconds of my time and when 1879 01:10:22,229 --> 01:10:20,880 it when it takes more than 30 seconds of 1880 01:10:24,229 --> 01:10:22,239 my time to 1881 01:10:25,910 --> 01:10:24,239 kind of understand that then the 1882 01:10:29,590 --> 01:10:25,920 question becomes back to the 1883 01:10:32,950 --> 01:10:29,600 conspiratorial part why is that 1884 01:10:36,390 --> 01:10:32,960 being perpetuated what what might i look 1885 01:10:38,630 --> 01:10:36,400 at in terms of why that exists why i've 1886 01:10:41,189 --> 01:10:38,640 been doing this show for 15 years i've 1887 01:10:44,550 --> 01:10:41,199 never had more people contact me like oh 1888 01:10:47,750 --> 01:10:44,560 you should do a debate on uh flat earth 1889 01:10:50,790 --> 01:10:47,760 something out there in the ethers is 1890 01:10:53,990 --> 01:10:50,800 trying to get this bubbled up to the top 1891 01:10:55,910 --> 01:10:54,000 because it it just throws [\h__\h] on our 1892 01:10:57,350 --> 01:10:55,920 whole community that there's the people 1893 01:10:59,510 --> 01:10:57,360 out there that actually believe in flat 1894 01:11:01,750 --> 01:10:59,520 earth when you talk to any normies and 1895 01:11:05,350 --> 01:11:01,760 most people in our lives are normies if 1896 01:11:09,110 --> 01:11:05,360 you mention flat earth you are it is 1897 01:11:11,669 --> 01:11:09,120 done it is a done kind of thing so um 1898 01:11:13,669 --> 01:11:11,679 and it should be because it's it's not 1899 01:11:16,550 --> 01:11:13,679 it doesn't deserve 1900 01:11:18,709 --> 01:11:16,560 serious scientific thought and then 1901 01:11:21,110 --> 01:11:18,719 number two i guess is 1902 01:11:22,229 --> 01:11:21,120 i think it's important this is my kind 1903 01:11:24,870 --> 01:11:22,239 of personal 1904 01:11:28,229 --> 01:11:24,880 hobbyhorse but to plant the flag 1905 01:11:30,790 --> 01:11:28,239 to plant the flag and not keep all doors 1906 01:11:33,189 --> 01:11:30,800 open well you know i don't know it could 1907 01:11:36,709 --> 01:11:33,199 be you know maybe there's a chance i 1908 01:11:39,990 --> 01:11:36,719 don't know no plant the flag and say no 1909 01:11:41,990 --> 01:11:40,000 it's ridiculous [\h__\h] but i get it i 1910 01:11:44,470 --> 01:11:42,000 get it in the realm of the 1911 01:11:46,149 --> 01:11:44,480 conspiratorial realm but yeah that one 1912 01:11:47,590 --> 01:11:46,159 doesn't pass 1913 01:11:49,830 --> 01:11:47,600 that test 1914 01:11:51,830 --> 01:11:49,840 and then the last one i want to throw in 1915 01:11:53,189 --> 01:11:51,840 which is kind of unrelated to that but i 1916 01:11:56,870 --> 01:11:53,199 want to get it out there and maybe it'll 1917 01:11:58,709 --> 01:11:56,880 spark a more discussion i also like the 1918 01:11:59,750 --> 01:11:58,719 as below so above 1919 01:12:02,390 --> 01:11:59,760 because 1920 01:12:04,229 --> 01:12:02,400 which is implied in what you're saying 1921 01:12:05,270 --> 01:12:04,239 as above so below 1922 01:12:09,510 --> 01:12:05,280 but 1923 01:12:11,669 --> 01:12:09,520 where as below so above gets us is 1924 01:12:13,750 --> 01:12:11,679 as we're talking about like you don't 1925 01:12:16,070 --> 01:12:13,760 want you don't think there's evil 1926 01:12:18,550 --> 01:12:16,080 [\h__\h] just look down here you don't have 1927 01:12:21,910 --> 01:12:18,560 to you don't have to contemplate demons 1928 01:12:24,470 --> 01:12:21,920 and all the rest just look here yes oh 1929 01:12:26,229 --> 01:12:24,480 might that also be reflected of course 1930 01:12:28,310 --> 01:12:26,239 because the two are 1931 01:12:29,910 --> 01:12:28,320 synonymous but anyways so 1932 01:12:32,149 --> 01:12:29,920 that's a really good point 1933 01:12:34,310 --> 01:12:32,159 on the table back to you well you know 1934 01:12:36,390 --> 01:12:34,320 okay so this brings me to a very weird 1935 01:12:38,310 --> 01:12:36,400 kind of point it may be hard to even get 1936 01:12:39,990 --> 01:12:38,320 out but you know there's a lot of 1937 01:12:42,070 --> 01:12:40,000 gatekeeping in the spiritual community 1938 01:12:44,950 --> 01:12:42,080 of course too you know i would point to 1939 01:12:46,390 --> 01:12:44,960 you know a pro a place like gaia tv is 1940 01:12:48,950 --> 01:12:46,400 is really interesting for a lot of 1941 01:12:50,550 --> 01:12:48,960 information and then there's a lot of 1942 01:12:52,630 --> 01:12:50,560 they really want us to feel like we're 1943 01:12:54,950 --> 01:12:52,640 all superheroes and we're going to be 1944 01:12:57,590 --> 01:12:54,960 transcending into different forms of 1945 01:12:59,910 --> 01:12:57,600 of physicality and 1946 01:13:02,149 --> 01:12:59,920 it's a it's a really it's convoluted in 1947 01:13:05,189 --> 01:13:02,159 my opinion there's a lot of convolution 1948 01:13:07,270 --> 01:13:05,199 spirit guides versus archetypes versus 1949 01:13:09,830 --> 01:13:07,280 feelings for what what is it is it does 1950 01:13:11,750 --> 01:13:09,840 it matter to discern or is it just a 1951 01:13:13,990 --> 01:13:11,760 perspective thing you know it's very 1952 01:13:15,030 --> 01:13:14,000 convoluted in there and it's it's hard 1953 01:13:17,270 --> 01:13:15,040 to kind of 1954 01:13:19,270 --> 01:13:17,280 dissect on again how do we bring it back 1955 01:13:21,030 --> 01:13:19,280 down to baseline how do we 1956 01:13:23,350 --> 01:13:21,040 what should be thrown off the table what 1957 01:13:26,229 --> 01:13:23,360 should be kept on you know can we call 1958 01:13:28,790 --> 01:13:26,239 it satanist can we call it luciferians 1959 01:13:32,070 --> 01:13:28,800 because of course in physical reality 1960 01:13:33,910 --> 01:13:32,080 they have those silly groups but then do 1961 01:13:37,030 --> 01:13:33,920 we take it to that next level where it's 1962 01:13:39,830 --> 01:13:37,040 demons and it's angels or is it just 1963 01:13:41,910 --> 01:13:39,840 that's a perspective of something that's 1964 01:13:42,950 --> 01:13:41,920 just naturally occurring 1965 01:13:45,510 --> 01:13:42,960 in this 1966 01:13:48,149 --> 01:13:45,520 experience of duality i mean whether we 1967 01:13:51,750 --> 01:13:48,159 can point to you know humans making the 1968 01:13:54,790 --> 01:13:51,760 decision to have divide and conquer put 1969 01:13:56,630 --> 01:13:54,800 into the society to [\h__\h] people up or if 1970 01:13:59,430 --> 01:13:56,640 it's literally the forces of the 1971 01:14:01,750 --> 01:13:59,440 universe like you know yin and yang 1972 01:14:04,790 --> 01:14:01,760 describe it perfectly and the opposite 1973 01:14:06,709 --> 01:14:04,800 is seated in each side you know it's 1974 01:14:08,310 --> 01:14:06,719 i want i said this on a couple podcasts 1975 01:14:09,990 --> 01:14:08,320 now and i again i'd like to sound like a 1976 01:14:12,630 --> 01:14:10,000 broken record sometimes i guess but it's 1977 01:14:14,070 --> 01:14:12,640 important to say that like it feels like 1978 01:14:16,790 --> 01:14:14,080 anyone that gets really behind the 1979 01:14:18,950 --> 01:14:16,800 curtain and gets to see what the evil 1980 01:14:20,630 --> 01:14:18,960 that's going on it's almost like 1981 01:14:26,229 --> 01:14:20,640 oh 1982 01:14:28,950 --> 01:14:26,239 falls apart or something like that this 1983 01:14:31,270 --> 01:14:28,960 push and pull of these opposing forces 1984 01:14:33,510 --> 01:14:31,280 this back to alchemy perhaps that these 1985 01:14:35,830 --> 01:14:33,520 two opposing forces kind of create this 1986 01:14:37,270 --> 01:14:35,840 middle ground of even being able to hear 1987 01:14:38,950 --> 01:14:37,280 to talk to each other 1988 01:14:41,350 --> 01:14:38,960 i don't know that's kind of wild it's a 1989 01:14:42,709 --> 01:14:41,360 little psychedelic but maybe i just like 1990 01:14:44,470 --> 01:14:42,719 to throw things at you and see what you 1991 01:14:46,630 --> 01:14:44,480 can do with it 1992 01:14:49,350 --> 01:14:46,640 i like that i'm still stuck in the in 1993 01:14:52,310 --> 01:14:49,360 the multiple worlds thing 1994 01:14:54,950 --> 01:14:52,320 let's clarify it no no no no i i'm not 1995 01:14:57,350 --> 01:14:54,960 opposing what you're saying i'm just 1996 01:15:01,110 --> 01:14:57,360 saying in parallel to that i think the 1997 01:15:03,350 --> 01:15:01,120 thing that trips us up andy is 1998 01:15:04,149 --> 01:15:03,360 we're always forced 1999 01:15:07,030 --> 01:15:04,159 to 2000 01:15:09,030 --> 01:15:07,040 like you say wake up and oh [\h__\h] hit the 2001 01:15:11,110 --> 01:15:09,040 alarm clock i got to get my ass to work 2002 01:15:13,110 --> 01:15:11,120 you know right this is the best route 2003 01:15:15,189 --> 01:15:13,120 this is the best way to go and traffic 2004 01:15:15,990 --> 01:15:15,199 is bad and the bridge is closed all that 2005 01:15:19,270 --> 01:15:16,000 [\h__\h] 2006 01:15:21,030 --> 01:15:19,280 that's a different world you know and so 2007 01:15:23,030 --> 01:15:21,040 we're always in these two different 2008 01:15:25,270 --> 01:15:23,040 worlds and we have a different set of 2009 01:15:26,950 --> 01:15:25,280 tools that work in one world and in 2010 01:15:29,350 --> 01:15:26,960 another world and what we're bringing to 2011 01:15:30,870 --> 01:15:29,360 the table is saying 2012 01:15:33,270 --> 01:15:30,880 in that world 2013 01:15:34,709 --> 01:15:33,280 of hit the alarm clock avoid the bridge 2014 01:15:35,990 --> 01:15:34,719 traffic 2015 01:15:37,750 --> 01:15:36,000 you also got to worry about these 2016 01:15:41,110 --> 01:15:37,760 [\h__\h] guys who are trying to jab you 2017 01:15:43,830 --> 01:15:41,120 in the arm in order to you know that you 2018 01:15:48,149 --> 01:15:43,840 never thought that was part of the alarm 2019 01:15:49,830 --> 01:15:48,159 clock world and that doesn't necessarily 2020 01:15:51,990 --> 01:15:49,840 mean the same thing in the spiritual 2021 01:15:53,510 --> 01:15:52,000 world like i don't want to start i don't 2022 01:15:54,870 --> 01:15:53,520 want to start making that connection 2023 01:15:56,709 --> 01:15:54,880 right off the bat and say right well 2024 01:16:00,149 --> 01:15:56,719 they're trying to jab you in the arm 2025 01:16:03,030 --> 01:16:00,159 because spiritually there's a like 2026 01:16:04,790 --> 01:16:03,040 i'm open maybe but the first part i want 2027 01:16:07,750 --> 01:16:04,800 to process is 2028 01:16:09,110 --> 01:16:07,760 yes the bridge really is out just 2029 01:16:10,870 --> 01:16:09,120 because they haven't done the 2030 01:16:12,310 --> 01:16:10,880 maintenance on it that isn't a 2031 01:16:14,310 --> 01:16:12,320 conspiracy 2032 01:16:16,149 --> 01:16:14,320 but the jab in the arm that they're 2033 01:16:19,350 --> 01:16:16,159 trying to do to my kids at school 2034 01:16:20,470 --> 01:16:19,360 without my consent yes that is a 2035 01:16:23,030 --> 01:16:20,480 conspiracy 2036 01:16:24,950 --> 01:16:23,040 so i can navigate the whole thing and 2037 01:16:27,669 --> 01:16:24,960 then we can have a discussion about my 2038 01:16:29,510 --> 01:16:27,679 trip right 2039 01:16:32,390 --> 01:16:29,520 yeah okay i like that and now you know 2040 01:16:35,750 --> 01:16:32,400 i'm guilty of of uh you know 2041 01:16:37,030 --> 01:16:35,760 desiring that integration and i think 2042 01:16:38,149 --> 01:16:37,040 you know now that you put it this way 2043 01:16:39,590 --> 01:16:38,159 it's a really 2044 01:16:41,030 --> 01:16:39,600 it's a good thing to play with because 2045 01:16:43,510 --> 01:16:41,040 it's like you can get lost in 2046 01:16:45,189 --> 01:16:43,520 integration as well perhaps where and 2047 01:16:47,750 --> 01:16:45,199 maybe that's something that you know 2048 01:16:50,790 --> 01:16:47,760 they would look forward to just 2049 01:16:53,110 --> 01:16:50,800 confusion by a simple suggestion right 2050 01:16:55,510 --> 01:16:53,120 and i've pondered why psychedelics were 2051 01:16:57,990 --> 01:16:55,520 used for so long because uh yeah 2052 01:16:59,910 --> 01:16:58,000 suggestion i can see that but 2053 01:17:02,630 --> 01:16:59,920 man if if a certain percentage we're 2054 01:17:04,470 --> 01:17:02,640 having my psychedelic experience 2055 01:17:06,470 --> 01:17:04,480 none of that brainwashing [\h__\h] was 2056 01:17:07,990 --> 01:17:06,480 even real and we would i would have been 2057 01:17:09,270 --> 01:17:08,000 laughing at them well maybe they just 2058 01:17:11,590 --> 01:17:09,280 get shot in the head of three times 2059 01:17:13,590 --> 01:17:11,600 after that you know but you know i had a 2060 01:17:15,430 --> 01:17:13,600 hard time understanding i gotta jump in 2061 01:17:17,510 --> 01:17:15,440 there because cause like that to me is 2062 01:17:19,030 --> 01:17:17,520 like a super super interesting point on 2063 01:17:21,350 --> 01:17:19,040 a bunch of different levels okay so you 2064 01:17:23,350 --> 01:17:21,360 go back and you look at the psychedelic 2065 01:17:25,189 --> 01:17:23,360 experiments and you look at the mk ultra 2066 01:17:27,030 --> 01:17:25,199 thing and one of the things that pops 2067 01:17:28,390 --> 01:17:27,040 out to me again i don't know this for 2068 01:17:30,630 --> 01:17:28,400 sure but if i'm going to put on that 2069 01:17:31,750 --> 01:17:30,640 rational in this world avoid the bridge 2070 01:17:33,750 --> 01:17:31,760 hat 2071 01:17:35,910 --> 01:17:33,760 i go back to your point andy is like 2072 01:17:38,149 --> 01:17:35,920 they're not that [\h__\h] smart so like 2073 01:17:40,070 --> 01:17:38,159 they really thought they didn't know 2074 01:17:42,470 --> 01:17:40,080 they're like oh man you know 2075 01:17:44,870 --> 01:17:42,480 we'll be able to mind control people 2076 01:17:47,430 --> 01:17:44,880 will be able to suggest things 2077 01:17:50,310 --> 01:17:47,440 they didn't they really believe just 2078 01:17:51,669 --> 01:17:50,320 like you know uh people with diff 2079 01:17:55,350 --> 01:17:51,679 brought up in certain kind of crazy 2080 01:17:57,910 --> 01:17:55,360 religions like scientology or mormonism 2081 01:17:59,910 --> 01:17:57,920 or catholicism then they have these 2082 01:18:02,709 --> 01:17:59,920 beliefs saying throw a grenade out there 2083 01:18:05,430 --> 01:18:02,719 see if anyone see if it goes off 2084 01:18:06,470 --> 01:18:05,440 yeah so maybe um yeah maybe just simply 2085 01:18:08,149 --> 01:18:06,480 to 2086 01:18:08,950 --> 01:18:08,159 because i would say i guess i answer my 2087 01:18:11,430 --> 01:18:08,960 own 2088 01:18:14,470 --> 01:18:11,440 question about why use psychedelics you 2089 01:18:17,350 --> 01:18:14,480 know uh is that you know at a young age 2090 01:18:19,350 --> 01:18:17,360 or an untrained mind is gonna 2091 01:18:20,630 --> 01:18:19,360 you know be in a world of chaos after 2092 01:18:22,550 --> 01:18:20,640 something like that if you don't have 2093 01:18:24,950 --> 01:18:22,560 some sort of person to kind of be like 2094 01:18:27,430 --> 01:18:24,960 well to help guide you back in in some 2095 01:18:29,750 --> 01:18:27,440 cases not a guru necessarily but you 2096 01:18:31,510 --> 01:18:29,760 know it took me a long time to 2097 01:18:32,709 --> 01:18:31,520 reintegrate into reality because i 2098 01:18:34,070 --> 01:18:32,719 didn't know 2099 01:18:35,350 --> 01:18:34,080 you know my whole world had been thrown 2100 01:18:36,870 --> 01:18:35,360 upside down when i started doing 2101 01:18:38,870 --> 01:18:36,880 psychedelics you know i spent a lot of 2102 01:18:39,990 --> 01:18:38,880 time reading dead people in bookstores 2103 01:18:42,229 --> 01:18:40,000 because i didn't have a lot of people 2104 01:18:43,669 --> 01:18:42,239 around me to bounce ideas off of but 2105 01:18:46,149 --> 01:18:43,679 yeah i guess you know it could just be 2106 01:18:48,310 --> 01:18:46,159 used in that way to cause the confusion 2107 01:18:49,510 --> 01:18:48,320 they love to create perhaps 2108 01:18:51,510 --> 01:18:49,520 you know well 2109 01:18:52,790 --> 01:18:51,520 and i think we're saying the same thing 2110 01:18:56,070 --> 01:18:52,800 but it's like 2111 01:18:58,229 --> 01:18:56,080 it could be used that way because they 2112 01:19:03,270 --> 01:18:58,239 really were dumb 2113 01:19:04,870 --> 01:19:03,280 there was probably a community in there 2114 01:19:06,550 --> 01:19:04,880 that because as soon as people start 2115 01:19:09,270 --> 01:19:06,560 using this and this is back to terence 2116 01:19:11,669 --> 01:19:09,280 mckenna you know it's like hey man 2117 01:19:13,750 --> 01:19:11,679 when these mushrooms grow out of the cow 2118 01:19:16,070 --> 01:19:13,760 pasture 2119 01:19:18,149 --> 01:19:16,080 there's no there's no controlling what's 2120 01:19:19,750 --> 01:19:18,159 gonna happen you know right so like you 2121 01:19:20,709 --> 01:19:19,760 said you know some people have the bag 2122 01:19:22,709 --> 01:19:20,719 of mushrooms and they have one 2123 01:19:23,910 --> 01:19:22,719 experience the other but you got a bunch 2124 01:19:25,189 --> 01:19:23,920 of mushrooms growing out there in the 2125 01:19:26,229 --> 01:19:25,199 field and people eating them but there's 2126 01:19:28,149 --> 01:19:26,239 going to be some people are going to 2127 01:19:29,669 --> 01:19:28,159 wake up and the same thing i think is 2128 01:19:32,070 --> 01:19:29,679 true with sydney gottlieb just so just 2129 01:19:33,030 --> 01:19:32,080 because he doesn't get it doesn't mean 2130 01:19:35,510 --> 01:19:33,040 that 2131 01:19:37,910 --> 01:19:35,520 some of those people didn't get it right 2132 01:19:39,189 --> 01:19:37,920 okay i like that you know where it's 2133 01:19:42,470 --> 01:19:39,199 again it's 2134 01:19:45,030 --> 01:19:42,480 it's that mixture of intent and mistake 2135 01:19:47,830 --> 01:19:45,040 or unknowing yeah like ken keezy once 2136 01:19:48,709 --> 01:19:47,840 said that lsd to describe lsd it's 2137 01:19:50,550 --> 01:19:48,719 it's 2138 01:19:52,630 --> 01:19:50,560 we opened up a door 2139 01:19:54,149 --> 01:19:52,640 or the government opened up a door 2140 01:19:55,270 --> 01:19:54,159 they saw something in it they didn't 2141 01:19:57,990 --> 01:19:55,280 understand 2142 01:19:59,910 --> 01:19:58,000 they put people in that room to see what 2143 01:20:01,910 --> 01:19:59,920 it was those people came out and 2144 01:20:03,189 --> 01:20:01,920 wouldn't listen to anything they the 2145 01:20:05,270 --> 01:20:03,199 people putting them in the room set 2146 01:20:07,270 --> 01:20:05,280 anymore and they said okay let's close 2147 01:20:09,110 --> 01:20:07,280 that door and close it up forever 2148 01:20:11,030 --> 01:20:09,120 so in a way that kind of speaks to that 2149 01:20:12,470 --> 01:20:11,040 ignorance that fear ignorance that okay 2150 01:20:14,950 --> 01:20:12,480 let's shut the friggin door i don't know 2151 01:20:16,790 --> 01:20:14,960 what we just did to society but but then 2152 01:20:19,030 --> 01:20:16,800 of course you can go into how the 60s 2153 01:20:21,590 --> 01:20:19,040 and the psychedelic revolution was a way 2154 01:20:23,830 --> 01:20:21,600 to discredit a real movement you know so 2155 01:20:26,709 --> 01:20:23,840 that's a whole nother you know that's an 2156 01:20:29,510 --> 01:20:26,719 intentional side of it perhaps you know 2157 01:20:31,830 --> 01:20:29,520 plus you can go into 2158 01:20:35,510 --> 01:20:31,840 the pharmacological 2159 01:20:38,390 --> 01:20:35,520 archaeological work in pompeii you know 2160 01:20:39,430 --> 01:20:38,400 the city that was covered by right you i 2161 01:20:41,669 --> 01:20:39,440 think you know where i'm going oh yeah 2162 01:20:45,510 --> 01:20:41,679 yes and they look in the medicine chest 2163 01:20:48,470 --> 01:20:45,520 and oh there's cocaine there's uh uh 2164 01:20:50,629 --> 01:20:48,480 cannabis and there is i forget you 2165 01:20:51,990 --> 01:20:50,639 probably know uh you know the name of 2166 01:21:03,830 --> 01:20:52,000 the 2167 01:21:06,950 --> 01:21:03,840 preserved right so it's like again 2168 01:21:08,149 --> 01:21:06,960 that's classic us to think we opened the 2169 01:21:10,149 --> 01:21:08,159 door 2170 01:21:12,390 --> 01:21:10,159 this swish 2171 01:21:14,709 --> 01:21:12,400 we didn't open no door 2172 01:21:16,550 --> 01:21:14,719 somebody was brushing their hands in the 2173 01:21:19,030 --> 01:21:16,560 wheat field and brought it up to their 2174 01:21:20,790 --> 01:21:19,040 face and something happened 2175 01:21:22,310 --> 01:21:20,800 thousands of years ago which is what 2176 01:21:25,830 --> 01:21:22,320 terence mckenna 2177 01:21:29,030 --> 01:21:25,840 has said it is undoubtedly true and 2178 01:21:30,709 --> 01:21:29,040 so anyways i'll throw that on the table 2179 01:21:32,790 --> 01:21:30,719 man we could go in a lot of places from 2180 01:21:35,270 --> 01:21:32,800 here we've been going for a while and 2181 01:21:36,790 --> 01:21:35,280 i man i would just love to have you back 2182 01:21:38,950 --> 01:21:36,800 sometime to have more of these this is 2183 01:21:40,310 --> 01:21:38,960 great i i don't know where we would 2184 01:21:44,310 --> 01:21:40,320 where would you like to go from here 2185 01:21:45,830 --> 01:21:44,320 because we've covered so much ground 2186 01:21:48,390 --> 01:21:45,840 you know what i'd like to do i'd like to 2187 01:21:50,070 --> 01:21:48,400 put this out on my channel too 2188 01:21:51,669 --> 01:21:50,080 this is uh 2189 01:21:54,470 --> 01:21:51,679 great because this is such an 2190 01:21:56,790 --> 01:21:54,480 interesting discussion and then i think 2191 01:21:57,990 --> 01:21:56,800 you and i ought to huddle and talk about 2192 01:22:00,310 --> 01:21:58,000 doing 2193 01:22:02,310 --> 01:22:00,320 maybe even like a mini series on this 2194 01:22:04,790 --> 01:22:02,320 because i think it's so 2195 01:22:06,470 --> 01:22:04,800 critical to this because there's a lot 2196 01:22:07,910 --> 01:22:06,480 of different ways to slice it i think 2197 01:22:10,070 --> 01:22:07,920 that would 2198 01:22:11,830 --> 01:22:10,080 that does lead down you know the river 2199 01:22:13,990 --> 01:22:11,840 you know they they kind of merge at some 2200 01:22:15,990 --> 01:22:14,000 point and we didn't quite get them to 2201 01:22:17,590 --> 01:22:16,000 merge all the way
