Folks, it’s probably no surprise to hear that magical activities are going on within our world pretty much constantly, and this is a tale as old as time…from mans first cave painting to the Super Bowl Halftime show, pulling ideas down from the imaginative realm and firmly planting them in the physical, through conscious attention and art creation just seems to be one of those quirky things man does. We’ve heard about the concept of the Muse, and countless artists have been quite clear about not exactly knowing where their art comes from- sometimes saying it finds them moreso than the other way around. So there’s definitely some interesting interplay between consciousness and ideas that I don’t think we’ve fully unpacked. Yet it’s something that the Occult world has been exploring and experimenting with behind the scenes for years- and while these activities are usually relegated to the shadows- few people really understand the scope of magical thinking, art, and it’s influence on the wider culture. Which brings us to today’s guest. His name is Carl Abrahamsson, a writer, publisher, magico-anthropologist, film maker and more.

Join Greg Carlwood of The Higherside Chats podcast as he hosts, James Grundvig, to discuss corruption at the CDC and the link between autism and vaccines. While many people find their flag squarely planted on opposing sides of the polarizing vaccine argument, the one thing they can all agree on is: they really only want what's best for their children. And unfortunately, while many parents conduct thorough research before making any decision, it's hard to really know what can be considered credible information. With Big Pharma driven by profits and growth over the health of citizens, it's easy to see how we can look around and find ourselves over-vaccinated and in the midst of an autism epidemic. Compounding the problem is the nefarious behavior of several top scientists at the CDC and throughout government agencies. Today's guest, James Grundvig, is not only personally affected by the large scale manipulation occurring, but he has dedicated his life to exposing these dark secrets. He has recently published three books including, "Master Manipulator: The Explosive True Story of Fraud, Embezzlement, and Government Betrayal at The CDC".
