We are honored to be interviewing the visionary futurist Jim Channon on The Future of ESP and Th Military. Jim created the first program in the Army back in the 70s to train Super Soldiers in the paranormal. He is the inspiration for "The Men Who Stare at Goats," and was played by Jeff Bridges, co starring with George Clooney, Kevin Spacey and others. He was also the inspiration for the cartoon, Captain Planet. Jim is still creating superheroes to this day at his Bioasis Sustainable Permaculture community in Hawaii.
Do yourself a favor and watch "The Men Who Stare at Goats" before this interview (but don't believe everything you see!)
