Today I'm gonna talk about my journey into church, and how I went from so angry with the church, to really feeling compelled to go. I’ll share the nervousness of that first time, and how it feels now, four months in. I’ll also discuss some questions I’ve had and challenges I’ve faced, as well as what I learned from them.
I realize “church” can be a very polarizing topic, but I think this podcast truly has something for everyone,...

We constantly hear about the importance of watching what we put into our body, but nobody ever talks about the importance of guarding what we consume with our minds. Today, we’re going to talk on that. We’ll discuss the science of how our thoughts and behavior can be molded, without our conscious awareness. We’ll tell a story about our major media companies doing just that. And, we’ll talk about the many ways that the harmful me...

After the divisiveness of the last election, I wanted to look into the science and psychology of how that happens, in hopes that some understanding could better help me to “break the spell” of the negativity. What I didn’t expect to find, was that, MOST of the time, when it comes to our opinions on things like politics… we’re not really all that knowledgeable about the things we believe. We’re all just a bunch of idiots, arguing ...

Language is so useful to society, that the negative side of it is often totally ignored… and that’s that simple words can really shape our perception, and the framework of our language, can really cage our minds. Today, we’ll discuss the many ways that words and language can do that, while sharing a ton of examples and scientific studies. We’ll also talk priming, hypnosis power words, neurolinguistic programming, how words can b...

This episode is more of a thought experiment: It began at a meetup group, when I mentioned how weird it was that we have these ancient pyramids, similar in age, construction, and use, all over the world, but from a time when the world was not connected at all. A reply, with a possible link between the ancient pyramids and the Tower of Babel, led me on a journey, questioning the possibility of that link... which then led me into a...

Consciousness is something that has baffled people forever. What is it? Where is it? How do we even define it? I think the confusion sets in because it can mean so many different things to so many different people. It can mean anything from "our feeling of being awake", to something extra-sensory and unknown within us, to a type of bond that connects us all. Today, I will make an argument for all of these descriptions... and ...

Today, I started out with an intent to do a podcast about time, but while researching time the story naturally flowed in many other directions, into subjects that were so interesting they demanded to be included. Many serious flaws were exposed, not only with regards to what science really knows, but with the entire establishment itself.
Also included in this episode: Newton - not cool, Blame Einstein, A world without time, B...

What if I told you that the consensus among experts in the neuroscience field is that we do NOT see the world as it truly is, at all? The truth is, we don’t! Every once in a while I come across a subject so amazing that it stuns me, and I just sit there thinking, “This is life changing! Why don’t they cover this in school?”
This has been one of the best of those subjects, and it has been a total game changer for how I view life ...

I've always been a fan of Tony Robbins, who some people view as the best "life coach" on the planet, so when I saw he was doing a free, live, five-day seminar I jumped on it. I expected it to be entertaining. I expected to get something out of it. What I didn't expect, was to have a meltdown and breakthrough on day one, that would lead me down a life changing path of discovery. Today I will get very personal, talking about my e...

Today we will talk with Jordan Harris of the "HereWithJordan" YouTube channel about the power of listening. Jordan interviews complete strangers on the streets and asks them some really deep questions. The moments he captures are truly amazing. As much as the mainstream media tries to divide us, his videos show us that we are all not so different after all, and they show us how, by showing compassion and really listening and un...

The things in my home will be shipped to Florida next week, and my home will be going on the market. I'm going to stay behind for about a month, and then I'll be heading out. With that in mind, I wanted to take this episode to talk about the top ten things I will miss about California, and five things that I definitely won't.

In today's episode, we jump back into the coronavirus discussion. I'll give an update on two protests which I have attended, and talk about how one of them was totally misrepresented by both sides of the debate. We will discuss a ton of things not getting much attention, that really make you question the narrative being pushed by the mainstream media. We will talk shelter in place orders, flattening the curve, hospitals going br...

On October 18, 2019, several high up officials got together for an exercise that simulated a coronavirus pandemic, which was spreading around the world with a possibility of killing 100-200 million people. Two and a half months later, the real virus erupted in China. Today we will take a deep dive into what was covered, as well as take a look at the question, "Was it a complete coincidence, or could it have been a dry run for a p...

We are living in times that are full of fear and anxiety for many right now. While we are focusing so intently on the enemy in front of us, there just may be the world's biggest heist going on right behind our backs. Maybe we need to take our eyes off the enemy in front for a moment, and turn around before the bigger threat whacks us in the back of the head.
