    Terence McKenna and Kenneth Ring on UFOs and NDEs
    Sep 18 2025
    This is a short conversation between two extraordinary thinkers, Terence McKenna and Kenneth Ring. The book The Omega Project was written by Ring, and in it he explores the relationship between the UFO phenomenon and the Near Death Experience. This audio was lifted from a video shot in Prague, Czechoslovakia during the International Transpersonal Conference in June 1992, known at Prague Gnosis. This was initially posted on my Hidden Experience blog back in January of 2014, and the audio quality was terrible. I'm reposting it with enhanced audio, and it's now a much improved listening experience. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

    I started a substack account. I've been wanting to get back into blogging, and also to have a way to help promote my podcast. I wrote a short essay about my frustrations with how "disclosure" has dominated the entirety of the UFO community. It's titled Disclosure Without a Spark, the full text is linked HERE.

  • My twenty-minute talk from The Archives of the Impossible

    My twenty-minute talk from The Archives of the Impossible
    Aug 13 2025
    This is a short audio post, and it isn’t numbered because it’s not a formal interview. Earlier this year, I gave a short talk about my work and my own experiences. This was at the Archives of the Impossible conference at Rice University in Houston, Texas. I was invited to this impressive event by Jeff Kripal and Karin Austin. I thank them at the beginning. I also said this was a big deal for me, and it was. The audio of my talk was lifted from a youtube video put out by Rice University, and here's a link to that video. Learn more about your ad choices.

    20. part TWO / Samantha Treasure—Out-of-body experiences, and an owl
    Aug 13 2025
    This follow-up conversation with Samantha was inspired by an owl. Really. The interview begins with me explaining why there needed to be a part two, and it involves an illustration created to match a psychic vision during meditation (see link below). This led to a deeper conversation on the fears, doubts, and challenges of UFO contact. Why do these elusive realms seem to overlap?

    19. Indi’s journey and the vital role of deer
    Jun 13 2025
    Animals, especially deer, play a powerful role within the contact experiences of Indi. This is a heartfelt and candid conversation with a woman who has endured a remarkable lifetime of mystical events. From emotional despair to a transformative Samadhi experience. Indi’s story is rich with meaning and hope, yet her journey has been challenging. UFOs, psychic knowing, giant glowing orbs, symbolic archetypes, and a four-foot tall owl, are all vital players on her spiritual path. And, Indi is also a channeler!

  • 18. Rachel Stewart—from heartbreak to healing

    18. Rachel Stewart—from heartbreak to healing
    May 10 2025
    This was not an easy interview. Rachel’s story is heartbreaking, yet it's also a remarkable testament of hope and faith. Rachel and her husband Shane had a daughter, Kenadie. In 2018, they lost her to cancer. She was only ten years old, and grief shattered their lives. But amidst the darkness, signs began to appear—glimmers of hope, whispers of connection, and a path to something greater. Rachel now runs an instagram page titled for11_together, a site dedicated to sharing stories of connection. I didn't realize until the end of the interview, but this was Rachel's first time ever as a guest on a podcast. When she told me this, I was so grateful—this was a powerful and emotional conversation. • for11_together on Instagram, HERE • Rachel's homepage, HERE Learn more about your ad choices.
