Alex Tsakiris | Scientism, Spirituality, & Why Evil Matters
Back for a second time, Alex Tsakiris, joins THC to talk about his latest book, Why Evil Matters: How Science & Religion Fumbled a Big One.
As you probably know, Alex is also the host and founder of the Skeptiko podcast, which has been running since 2007. He’s also the author of Why Science is Wrong… About Almost Everything.
Gary Lachman is the author of twenty-one books on topics ranging from the evolution of consciousness to literary suicides, popular culture and the history of the occult. He has written a rock and roll memoir of the 1970s, biographies of Aleister Crowley, Rudolf Steiner, C. G. Jung, Helena Petrovna Blavatsky, Emanuel Swedenborg, P. D. Ouspensky, and Colin Wilson, histories of Hermeticism and the Western Inner Tradition, studies in existentialism and the philosophy of consciousness, and about the influence of esotericism on politics and society.
Today we talk mainly about his latest book, The Return of Holy Russia: Apocalyptic History, Mystical Awakening, and the Struggle for the Soul of the World.

With Coronavirus on the forefront of many minds, independent researchers Dawn Lester & David Parker join THC to talk about their deep dive into the history of Western medicine, germ theory, viruses, and outbreaks.
It was a long multi-year journey that has culminated in their great work, What Really Makes You Ill? Why Everything You Thought You Knew About Disease Is Wrong, a nearly 800 page detailed breakdown of everything they've found and the conclusions the data brought them to.

Alright Higherside Chatters, when we dig into the details of many subjects that are generally taken for granted, we find a great deal of manipulation, half truths, and faulty premises in which entire fields are sometimes based- and this goes for an increasingly large chunks of history and science: Materialism, Darwinism, The Apollo Moon Missions, Columbus discovering America, Mass shootings, 9/11, the cover up of exotic technology and alternative fuel sources, genuine medicine, historic time lines, and maybe even some major elements of our Earthly system itself….
Everyone draws their lines differently, but these are just some of the examples we’ve examined in the past that actually encompass huge portions of popular worldviews and to see through even just a few of them – leads one to reflect on not only what else we take for granted that might have been concocted by the Capstone Cabal- but just how powerful and all encompassing are the nefarious few? What kind of world am I in? Are we as blissfully ignorant of our true situation as the cattle grazing on the farm?
Well, when the Big Club goes back longer than we can trace our own family lines, and we’re forced to go through the brainwashing education system that has been cooked up by these very same untrustworthy tyrants- good luck getting it all worked out. As the theme song says, we know they’re lying to us, we just don’t know to what degree- well today we’re blowing the barn doors right off and torching every sacred cow left inside. Because today’s guest John Le Bon pushes the needle firmly into the red, as he tackles some of what seem to be the most controversial and tightly held so called “truths. John is a self described “real skeptic” from Australia, just asking questions about what we take for granted. He runs JohnLeBon.com as well as a popular youtube channel- and I think this is going to be a pretty wild ride.
The controversial questioner, ful-spectrum skeptic, and conspiratorial thunder from down under- JLB.

Today’s economic world is not what it once was. While the Baby Boomers grew up with the narrative that going to school, working hard, buying a house and retiring happy is the way to achieve financial success, today’s Millennials are not living the same reality. As the economy has changed, so have the ways of using magic and the spirit world to boost your chances of success in it.
So back again is everyone's favorite wizard, Gordon White, author of a new book called The Chaos Protocols: Magical Techniques for Navigating the New Economic Reality to help us deal with it.. He is also the leader of London’s leading chaos magic blogs, Rune Soup, and its affiliated podcast. He’s also spoken widely on social changes and how those of the newer generations can alter(or altar) their behaviors to achieve success.
Some of the topics you’ll hear about include:
10:20: How the attitudes of the Millennials, GenXers and Baby Boomers are different, particularly when it comes to expectations of financial success and responsibility.
17:00: About teleological reasoning, which is the belief that you know the best way to get things done. Gordon shares his thoughts on why it is a fallacy, as well as how to manage it with optionality, which is when one gains from an unplanned event that might otherwise be perceived as negative.
23:15: How chaos magic works and how the data supports its legitimacy.
26:00: An explanation of the Scole Experiments and how they proved the existence of the afterlife.
33:20: How chaos magic can make us invincible.
42:00: How communing with the dead can be helpful when it comes to finances.
51:10: The process of creating cosmology and forging relationships with entities.

Today marks the long awaited return of Jim Elvidge!
Jim holds a Master’s Degree in Electrical Engineering. He has applied his training in the high-tech world as a leader in technology and enterprise management, and is a regular speaker at technology conferences. Elvidge’s first book, The Universe-Solved!, presented evidence that our reality may be under programmed control. Nine years later, scientists, technologists, and futurists the world over speculate that our reality is a digital simulation. Elvidge’s research has continued well beyond the simulation hypothesis to a true scientific foundation for digital consciousness theory. His latest book, Digital Consciousness: A Transformative Vision is also out now.
