    Great guests (Gordon) and I may not always agree but Greg is brave and perhaps all along has been the canary in the coal mine.

  • Homework hasn’t been done.

    Sensationalistic tone and approach. Goes into interviews with a cursory bit of information and a lot of hang ups. Annoying up talking and argumentative tone doesn’t add to the listening experience.

  • Thc+ is a nightmare

    Don’t ever subscribe to plus, you will get auto renewal that is almost impossible to stop. I paid for a sub this morning and was immediately locked out of my account. Sent and email to support, got an auto reply saying it was to the wrong support page and the email was disregarded. I mean a total nightmare scam!!

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Michael Cremo | Extreme Out Of Place Artifacts, More Forbidden Archaeology, & Vedic Cosmology
Q: What is the core message you want listeners to take away about the nature of reality?
The core message is that we live in a consciousness-based universe where identity as a being of pure consciousness shapes our goals and social structures, and adopting this perspective can lead to more sustainable and equitable outcomes.
Michael Cremo | Extreme Out Of Place Artifacts, More Forbidden Archaeology, & Vedic Cosmology
Q: Why do you think Darwinism and materialism hold such sway in science despite accumulating anomalies?
The host questions the dominance of materialist paradigms, and Cremo suggests that financial and institutional influences, plus a preference for a consistent, testable physical model, have discouraged alternative cosmologies, while consciousness-based models offer a more inclusive explanation.
Michael Cremo | Extreme Out Of Place Artifacts, More Forbidden Archaeology, & Vedic Cosmology
Q: Can you tell us more about how the Puranas describe human history and why a Vedic cosmology might better fit the evidence?
Cremo explains that the Puranas provide hundreds of accounts suggesting a much longer or different human antiquity than conventional timelines, and that a framework which includes consciousness and non-material realities can accommodate this evidence while bridging science and spirituality.
Dr. Heather Lynn | The Ancient Entropy Equation, Ritual Sex Magic, & The Broker Class
Q: Can you tell us the tale of entropy and why it is so important?
Entropy is explained as a fundamental law governing energy flow and information exchange; understanding it reveals how systems degrade, transfer value, and why certain entities become gatekeepers, shaping economic and social structures.
David Icke | The Road Map: Alt Media Agents, The American Technate, & The Reptilians
Q: What do you see as the main actors driving this global agenda, and how do they operate behind the scenes?
Icke describes a hidden network of secret societies and a centralized control system that uses media, ideology, and technological platforms to manipulate perception, with front men performing public roles while the true power remains in the shadows.
