Podcast appearances and mentions of Carl Sagan

Raghunath and Kaustubha explore the message of need to sift perspect shared in Srimad Bhagavatam.  Seeking to relive the suffering of Mother Earth, the gods and goddesses gather for an epic moment of clarity—chanting the Purusha Sukta hymn of the Vedas. What follows is a brilliant meditation on zooming out of our small dramas and plugging into the greater cosmic intelligence behind it all.   Raghunath shares a story of fatherly panic as his daughter falls ill across the ocean, while Kaustubha unpacks the deeper meaning of the universe as a unified being—rooted in the divine Purusha. Carl Sagan makes a guest appearance, reminding us from 4 billion miles away that Earth is but a speck in the void—and our self-importance might need a little deflation.   Key Highlights: • “Our imagined self-importance is challenged by this point of pale light.” – Carl Sagan • How chanting Purusha Sukta re-centers the mind and soul • A fine line between spiritual detachment and showing up for those we love • Learning to see God's hands when His face is hidden • Why the Bhagavatam is the “superfood” of spiritual literature  

Real Life Devon [Redacted silence.] Possibly building up for a season finale of his own. Or meditating on NASA budget cuts. Either way—stoic. Steven We wrapped Andor, and while it stuck the landing, there's still one huge question: Where are Hera, Chopper, and the Ghost crew?! Justice for space moms and droid chaos: #ReleaseAndorTheRebelsCut Also, Steven took us on a wild detour into Monopoly studies with college students—spoiler alert: inherited wealth makes people awful. Shocking, we know. Ben Fresh from science camp and rocking a healthy dose of jet lag, Ben managed to be late to his own poetry reading. But hey—archery, mountain biking, and night hikes do things to a man. Possibly became a druid out there. Future or Now Steven “Hand hand fingers thumb…” No, we didn't start a toddler book club—Steven shared research that suggests chimpanzees drum with distinct rhythmic patterns depending on their subspecies. Which means your drummer friend? Maybe not that unique. The longest drum solo in history begins now. Devon NASA is facing a 53% cut to its science budget under the proposed presidential plan. That includes major slashes to earth and space science programs. Meanwhile, human spaceflight would get a commercial makeover. We quote Devon's son: “Does Trump believe in God?” Also, we're apparently heading back to the moon—just, you know, without a weather report. Read about the cuts Ben Ben took us on an emotional journey through the 2024 animated documentary Piece by Piece, which somehow manages to combine Lego stop-motion, Carl Sagan, and protest imagery into one transcendent experience. Trailer? Here. Carl Sagan clip? Also here. “Happy”? But make it devastating: This. More? Wikipedia's got you. Book Club This week: The Evolution of Human Science by Ted Chiang What if human research became too advanced for most people to understand? No characters, just ideas. It's written like a news article, and it's fascinating. Humanity has split into Normies and Meta-Humans, the latter genetically optimized before birth to the point that they operate on an entirely different intellectual plane. They use “DNT” (Digital Neural Transfer) and leave the rest of us behind with our podcasts and spreadsheets. Thought-provoking stuff. Included with Audible [if you're listening along]. Next week: Liking What You See by Ted Chiang Yes, we're doing another Chiang short, because why not dive deeper into techno-philosophical existential dread? (Roughly 1.5 hours—get reading!)

We're remembering five years since the murder of George Floyd by a Minneapolis police officer. Today, we are looking back at how we got here by examining decades of police-community relations in Minneapolis that set the stage for a racial reckoning. The deadline for the 2025 Minnesota Legislative Session is tonight at midnight, but lawmakers aren't done with their work. We'll get the latest updates on a special session and what still needs to happen from our politics team. Plus, patients with sleep apnea have found they sleep better after receiving medical marijuana, according to a new survey. We'll learn more about how the findings could help other patients struggling to sleep.Our Minnesota Music Minute was “Undying Thirst” by Black Market Brass and our Song of the Day was “Carl Sagan” by Night Moves.

In this conversation, Josh and Chris discuss the importance of authenticity in storytelling, particularly Chris' relationship with deceased partner Richard and their journey through terminal illness. Throughout the episode, Chris reflects on the emotional complexities of revisiting memories while working on a film adaptation of their story. The discussion also touches on the broader implications of personal narratives in fostering empathy and societal change, emphasizing love and commitment as universal themes. Quote Chris referenced in the new title of the film "She had studied the universe all her life, but had overlooked its clearest message: For small creatures such as we, the vastness is bearable only through love."

Dr Bae returned to the program to discuss his new book, "Photonic Laser Propulsion" plus he explained the technology, answered many listener questions plus we talked time lines, a general development plan, the Moon, Mars, beamed laser propulsion comparisons, chemical launch rockets, economics and our vision for humanity's future. Dr. Bae started out with a lengthy intro to the book and his photonic laser propulsion work, he used a quote about inspiration from Carl Sagan and much more. Later in the discussion, when he was asked for his plan to get his ideas and work to policy makers and those that develop tech, he thought that would be take up by maybe other governments, interested parties, private funders. He thought his work was complete as a scientist by developing the tech and putting it out there for all in his book. We talked about funding, specifically gov. vs private funding. Also mentioned was human spaceflight, tourism, and settlement. Don't miss how it tech might apply to each of these categories plus timelines for them.

Welcome to a fascinating journey into the limits of imagination, geometry, and scientific discovery. In this premiere episode of "The Scientists," a new series on the Into The Impossible Podcast Network, host Brian Keating—Chancellor's Distinguished Professor of Physics at UC San Diego—dives deep into the curious world of "Flatland," Edwin Abbott Abbott's mind-bending Victorian novel. But this isn't just dusty literature; it's a geometric allegory that shaped some of the greatest scientific minds, including Albert Einstein himself. Alongside surprising social commentary and a critique of rigid hierarchies, Keating unpacks the power of imagination in science, showing how boundary-pushing thinkers moved from heresy to genius. Sit back as you journey through dimensions with Brian Keating—plus a special segment from science communicator Carl Sagan—inviting you to rethink your own perspective on the universe and the unseen realities that might lie just beyond. Ready to challenge what you believe about reality? Stay curious and let's step into the impossible together. Please join my mailing list here

SEASON 3 EPISODE 121: COUNTDOWN WITH KEITH OLBERMANN A-Block (1:45) SPECIAL COMMENT: The District Attorney for New Orleans Jason Williams must indict and issue arrest warrants for Tom Homan, Kristi Noem (Now With 8 Action Adventure Dress-Up Outfits) and the other members of the ICE Gestapo who disappeared a two-year old New Orleans born girl and sent her to Honduras - possibly making up a story that her Honduran-born mother wanted to take her with her - AND also abducted and renditioned a four-year old US Citizen toddler with Stage 4 Medication and sent her and her mother to Honduras, too. The charges should be led by Child Trafficking, kidnapping, violation of 5th and 14th Amendment rights, and be predicated on the fact that ICE has degenerated into a violent gang threatening the safety of Americans. Throw the RICO act at the Brownshirts. The event was so egregious, so redolent of Moral Cannibalism, that the Trump Appointee judge who brought the case to public attention and tried to stop it referred in his writings to their plane being above "The Gulf of America." But he also voiced his "strong suspicion that the government just deported a U.S. citizen with no meaningful process." Indictments of Noem and the others may be fruitless. But it will at least symbolize that democracy will at least fight back against what Trump is doing: which is verging on Ethnic Cleansing. MEANWHILE IN WISCONSIN the ICE stormtroopers who arrested a judge in her courtroom for not collaborating with a raid should themselves be arrested. And unlike Trump, authorities there will not have to fabricate or pervert laws to do so. PLUS I'll analyze Trump's sudden pathetic pleadings to Putin, his bat guano crazy interview with Time, and most imperatively, his writing that he suspects Putin is "just tapping me along." There is no indication anywhere that this phrase "tapping me along" has ever been used by anybody else, ever. There is every indication Trump's mind may have now degenerated further into the stage where he is making up his own words and phrases. B-Block (36:00) Dedicated to Karoline Leavitt whose first and last names both contain the letters for the word "lie." Trump himself gets a bronze for boasting about spending $58,000 of his own money on behalf of the country while he syphons off millions daily. The runner-up is Ed Martin and his embrace, then disengagement, from the world's stupidest looking Hitler cosplayer. But the winner again is Bill Maher, who perpetuates his career-ending decision to go to the White House for dinner with Trump. He claims Larry David's soon-to-be-Pulitzer-Prize winning satire of the event has insulted "six million dead Jews" because of the comparison between Trump and Hitler: "I think the minute you play the ‘Hitler’ card, you’ve lost the argument." Ooops. It's a shame Bill's memory is so damaged. Guess who played the Hitler card, made the comparison to Trump, and thus presumably lost the argument? Twice? On his own show? IN 2015? C-Block (46:00) THINGS I PROMISED NOT TO TELL: Someone mentioned the great Cornell astronomer and planetary scientist and 26-time Tonight Show guest Carl Sagan and I was flashed back. Sure enough, it was 47 years ago last week that he won a Pulitzer Prize. Our Cornell radio station called him for an interview and he said yes, on one condition: "Is your sportscaster Keith there? I want him to do it. He gets it." This would be the first time I ever interviewed anybody famous, and he requested me, even though we'd never met. I'm as stunned now as I was then, and I'll explain why it happened. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

They Built the EarthThen seeded life 3.7 billion years ago - Its time to unlock the message they leftby Alan Butler and Christopher KnightRelease date: MAY 01 2025Categories: Ancient mysteries & controversial knowledge, Ufos & extraterrestrialsCLICK HERE TO VIEW THE BOOK COVERA book that is set to open up a whole new direction for humanity by opening the message left for us from those who seeded life on Earth.Most leading scientists agree that the old idea that life on Earth sprang into existence thanks to some happy accident 3.7 billion years ago is provably wrong. Top astronomers, such as Carl Sagan and the discoverer of DNA, Francis Crick, believe that life must have been deliberately planted here. Many biologists have suggested that there are large areas of our DNA that may contain a huge message for us to unlock.Christopher Knight and Alan Butler have spent 25 years studying the issue, and now, they have published irrefutable evidence that not only was DNA seeded on our planet but that the Earth, Moon, and the asteroid Ceres were carefully manipulated to ensure that living creatures on Earth would evolve and prosper in what amounts to a gigantic incubator. In this book, they provide details of the existence of conspicuous instructions on how to unlock the communication contained within our DNA coding. This short book will revolutionise how we think about the origin of life on Earth and our next steps of development. The evidence is overwhelming - checkable by anyone with a basic calculator.The data provided cannot be wrong, and the consequences are world-changing. Our species has arrived at a turning point, the originator of the message has carefully timed its discovery to this precise moment - when we have developed multiple ways of obliterating ourselves if left to our own devices. The call is made for a multi-disciplinary team of global experts to be assembled to carry out the mission of fully unlocking and implementing the contents of this message from the beginning of time.BOOK LINK: https://www.collectiveinkbooks.com/6th-books/our-books/they-built-earth

You've probably come across the "free energy principle." It's become one of the most influential ideas in the broader cognitive sciences. Since the neuroscientist Karl Friston first introduced it in 2005, the theory has been fleshed out, extended, generalized, criticized, and cited thousands and thousands of times. But what is this idea, exactly? What does it say about the nature of brains and minds? What does it say about the phenomenon of life itself? And is anything that it says really that new? My guest today is Dr. Kate Nave. Kate is a philosopher at the University of Edinburgh and the author of the new book, A Drive to Survive: The Free Energy Principle and the Meaning of Life. In the book, Kate offers an extended critical analysis of the free energy principle and situates it in a broader landscape of ideas about the nature of life and mind. In this conversation, Kate and I talk about how the free energy principle has changed over time, from its beginnings as a theory of cortical responses in the brain to its eventual status as a theory of... well, a lot. We discuss why this theory has had such an enormous influence, and we talk about how many of the key ideas behind it actually have a long history. We consider some kindred spirits of the free energy framework— approaches like cybernetics, enactivism, predictive processing, and autopoiesis. We walk through a series of questions that all these approaches have long grappled with. Questions like: What does it mean to be alive? What is the relationship between being alive and being cognitive? What are the roles of prediction and representation in cognition? And we ask how—if it all—the free energy principle gives us new answers to these old questions. Along the way, Kate and I touch on: surprisal, visual phenomenology, vitalism, Husserl and Merleau-Ponty, Maturana and Varela, pendulums and bacteria, computation and models, primordial purposiveness, pancakes, and whether we'll ever be able to create artificial life. As you might be able to tell from the description I just gave, this conversation goes pretty deep—and it does get a bit technical. It dives down into the history and philosophy around some of the most foundational questions we can ask about minds. If that sounds like your cup of tea, enjoy. Alright friends, on to my conversation with Dr. Kate Nave!   A transcript of this episode will be posted soon.   Notes and links 5:00 – The 2005 paper in which Karl Friston proposed the principle of free energy minimization. Friston later generalized the ideas here and here. 14:00 – For influential philosophical work on action in perception, see Alva Nöe's book, Action in Perception. 17:00 – One of the classic works in the “enactivist” tradition is Evan Thompson's book, Mind in Life. 18:00 – The actual quip, credited to Carl Sagan, is about “apple pie” not pancakes: “If you wish to make an apple pie from scratch, you must first invent the universe.” 20:00 – The notion of “autopoiesis” (or “self-creation”) was introduced by Humberto Maturana and Francisco Varela in their book, Autopoiesis and Cognition. 24:00 – A classic paper of cybernetics from 1943, ‘Behavior, purpose, and teleology.' 37:00 – For more on the idea of “predictive processing,” see our earlier episode with Dr. Mark Miller. 43:00 – For a discussion of the idea of “representation” in the philosophy of cognitive science, see here.

Una de las más hermosas y poéticas reflexiones científicas es obra del gran divulgador Carl Sagan. Decía que “somos polvo de estrellas” y no le faltaba razón. Toda la materia que nos rodea está constituida por átomos de algún elemento químico que se forjaron en el interior de las estrellas. En "Más cerca" (Radio 5) hemos hablado con Enrique Nácher, investigador del CSIC en el Instituto de Física Corpuscular y coautor del libro “La formación de los elementos químicos. La física del origen de la materia”, publicado por CSIC y La Catarata. Escuchar audio

Pep Martorell es director del Barcelona Supercomputing Center, hogar del MareNostrum 5. Sentimos una extraña mezcla de fascinación y temor por las nuevas tecnologías. La ciencia tiene un impacto en el mundo en el que vivimos y la computación del superordenador soluciona problemas que no podemos tan siquiera concebir. Escribió Eduardo Mendoza en su precioso discurso de aceptación del Premio Cervantes que “las vocaciones tempranas son árboles con muchas hojas, poco tronco y ninguna raíz”. Pep, que divulga también en su propio Substack, entró en el campo de la física fascinado por los documentales de Cosmos. Carl Sagan contagió y sigue contagiando a muchos jóvenes en busca de una vocación. Ese hombre, con su pasión por la ciencia, despertó la curiosidad de muchos y mi esperanza es que este podcast haga lo mismo.Quiero dar las gracias a la Cambra de Comerç de Barcelona por haber hecho posible este episodio. Me permitieron grabar en su fantástico ático de Diagonal y no habría podido encontrar un emplazamiento mejor para la charla con Pep. La propuesta de la Cambra es atractiva para todo tipo de perfiles relacionados con el mundo de la empresa y te animo a que explores los eventos que allí organizan. La Cambra quiere ser un punto de encuentro empresarial en la ciudad de Barcelona, facilitando conexiones inesperadas y creando oportunidades en la serendipia que se genera en esos círculos. Siempre la opcionalidad del amigo Taleb, los accidentes positivos de los que te hablo en Kapital.Así narra Stephen Fry el regalo del fuego por parte de Prometeo, en su fantástico libro Los mitos griegos revisitados: “Cuando les mostró a los hombres aquel demonio saltarín y célebre danzarín, de primeras chillaron atemorizados y recularon ante las llamas. Pero la curiosidad pronto superó al miedo y comenzaron a solazarse con aquel nuevo juguete mágico, aquella sustancia, fenómeno..., llamadlo como queráis. Supieron por Prometeo que el fuego no era su enemigo sino un poderoso aliado que, convenientemente domesticado, tenía diez mil millares de usos. Prometeo pasó de una aldea a otra enseñándoles técnicas para fabricar herramientas y armas, cocer cacerolas de arcilla, cocinar carne y hornear masas de cereales, lo que enseguida desencadenó una avalancha de ventajas que supuso la prevalencia del hombre sobre la presa animal, que no podía reaccionar a las lanzas y flechas de punta metálica. No tardó mucho Zeus en bajar la mirada desde el Olimpo y ver puntos de titilante luz naranja salpicando el paisaje a su alrededor. Al instante supo lo que había sucedido. Tampoco hizo falta que le dijesen quién era el responsable. Su ira fue arrebatada y terrible. Jamás se había presenciado una furia tan extrema, tan tumultuosa, tan apocalíptica. Ni siquiera Urano, en su mutilada agonía, había experimentado una rabia tan vengativa. Urano fue vencido por un hijo que le resultaba indiferente, pero Zeus había sido traicionado por el amigo al que más amaba. Ninguna traición podía ser más terrible.”Índice:1:21 Temor ancestral a lo desconocido.8:52 Labatut ve al científico como un poeta.19:10 Mirar en el abismo del conocimiento.27:06 Las bellísimas lecciones de Sagan.30:51 Faltan chicas en las carreras STEM.42:56 La tradición catalana de comprar tecnología en Andorra.51:35 Conferencia en Solvay en 1927.1:03:15 Los misterios del big bang.1:06:58 Hablar de Newton es como hablar de Messi.1:16:51 Un superordenador en una capilla.1:25:58 Ich probiere.1:35:06 AlphaGo.1:41:53 Nobel de Química para el plegado de proteínas.1:45:59 Kasparov contra Deep Blue.1:48:23 Destrucción mutua asegurada.1:59:39 El bosón de Higgs.2:06:31 Misterios por resolver.Apuntes:Cosmos.

HAVE ALWAYS BELIEVED that every child, by the time they're 13 or so, should have a good grounding in three specific skills. They should be able to read well; they should have a decent understanding of their individual rights, especially freedom of speech and the sanctity of a free press; and they should understand the scientific method and how it works. Science is real, and it is as accurate as anything can possibly be BECAUSE it is designed to be ferociously self-critical. What if our political system worked the same way? Wow—what an amazing thing THAT would be! Let me say that another way: what if we were to unleash the scientific method on POLITICAL science? What would THAT look like! In this episode, I take a look at that, with the help of none other than Carl Sagan. Have a listen.

Dinosaurs, Carl Sagan, and nuclear war. There was a moment in the not-so-distant past when we learned what drove the dinosaurs extinct — and that discovery, made during the Cold War, may have helped save humans from the same fate. In this episode, we'll take a journey from prehistoric times to the nuclear age and explore how humans contend with fears of the end.Learn more about sponsor message choices: podcastchoices.com/adchoicesNPR Privacy Policy

They taught her that the natural world and vast cosmos are full of profound beauty, that science reveals truths more wondrous than any myth or fable. * When Sasha herself became a mother, she began her own hunt for the natural phenomena behind our most treasured occasions—from births to deaths, holidays to weddings, anniversaries, and more—growing these roots into a new set of rituals for her young daughter that honor the joy and significance of each experience without relying on religious frameworks. * Sasha's first book, For Small Creatures Such As We, is part memoir, part guidebook, and part social history—a luminous exploration of Earth's marvels that require no faith in order to be believed. * This episode was recorded during a live online event on October 10th, 2019.

What does the Bible say about the sun? What is the purpose of the sun? Why did God create it? How does the sun remind us of God's invisible attributes? How could there have been life on earth before the sun? How can we best understand both what the Bible says and what science says about our sun? The sun was designed and created for God's glory; for signs and for seasons, for days and years, to govern the day, and to give light on the earth. Come and see with Wayne and Dan what the Bible and the Parker Solar Probe can tell us not only about the sun, but about what God is like.   Audio clips used in this episode: Grackles https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CLteSIxC1hs Dr. Neil DeGrasse Tyson https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1OwP2MONfcE Dr. Carl Sagan https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tLPkpBN6bEI Dr. Nour Rawafi Ted Talk https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hktbamn2jX4 Podbean enables our podcast to be on Apple Podcasts and other major podcast platforms.  To support Good Heavens! on Podbean as a patron, you can use the Podbean app, or go to https://patron.podbean.com/goodheavens.  This goes to Wayne Spencer. If you would like to give to the ministry of Watchman Fellowship or to Daniel Ray, you can donate at https://www.watchman.org/daniel.

THIS EPISODE: In 1990, NASA's Voyager 1 turned its camera back toward Earth and captured a haunting image—our entire planet reduced to a single, tiny "pale blue dot" in the vastness of space. But what does this humbling perspective mean for us?In this episode of All Things Unexplained, Dr. Mounce explores the mystery and meaning behind Carl Sagan's famous words, uncovering:

Hunter and I had the absolute pleasure of speaking with author, translator, journalist, and deep researcher Robert Temple about his latest book "A New Science of Heaven", plasma, hypnosis, getting on the CIA's radar, Carl Sagan, Isaac Asimov, the Kordylewski Clouds, the cold sun, the electric universe, ball lightning, plasma dust, sentient electricity, plasma drones, physical bodies as smart overcoats, reincarnation, information space, dream walkers, the Pit, the Grey Regions, and, believe it or not, much more.   Robert's website: https://www.robert-temple.com/ Researchgate: https://www.researchgate.net/   To get access to exclusive episodes, our backlog of extended episodes, and to our MELT Meet-ups consider supporting us on Patreon at https://www.patreon.com/themeltpodcast or Locals at https://themeltpodcast.locals.com where you can subscribe for a mere $5 per month.    Find The Melt on… Rumble: https://rumble.com/c/c-2365404 YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@TheMeltPodcast Check out our merch at: https://the-melt.creator-spring.com/   Music by The Godawful Joy: https://thegodawfuljoy.bandcamp.com/releases and Matt Presti: https://www.mattpresti.com/music.html

In this episode of The Band of Traders, Kyle reconnects with longtime friend of the show, Richard Friesen, for a deep dive into the psychology of trading and personal growth. Rich shares insights from his work with traders, emphasizing the power of self-awareness, emotional regulation, and identifying the internal voices that shape decision-making.Kyle opens up about his own process of mapping out these inner characters—from "John Rambo" to "Carl Sagan"—and how understanding their motivations has improved his trading discipline. The conversation explores the balance between process and results, the impact of past experiences on financial success, and how traders can develop a healthier relationship with risk, failure, and self-worth.Packed with practical mindset shifts and real-world applications, this episode is essential listening for anyone looking to elevate both their trading and personal development.Sponsors and FriendsOur podcast is sponsored by Sue Maki at Fairway Independent Mortgage (MLS# 206048).

In this episode, we sit down with historian, Dr. Rebecca Charbonneau to explore her fascinating new book, Mixed Signals. At the height of the Cold War, amidst nuclear brinkmanship and deep political divides, an unlikely collaboration emerged between the United States and the Soviet Union in the search for extraterrestrial intelligence. Rebecca dives into the extraordinary partnership between Ukrainian astrophysicist Iosif Shklovsky and American astronomer Carl Sagan, whose groundbreaking work in radio astronomy brought the hunt for alien signals into the scientific mainstream. From bizarre experiments—like sending the sound of ballerinas' movements into space—to navigating the political tightrope of Cold War diplomacy, this story is as thrilling as it is thought-provoking. Join us as Rebecca unpacks how the search for alien life not only opened up new frontiers in science but also fostered a unique philosophy of international collaboration, proving that even amidst earthly tensions, humanity could unite in its curiosity about the cosmos.PODCAST UFO T-SHIRTSSHOW NOTESBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/podcast-ufo--5922140/support.

Welcome back to Black Hoodie Alchemy, folks! When it comes to the soul and modern science, a question often overlooked is: how could something help ensure our genetic survival after death? Well, we've got some considerations for you! It's been almost long enough since the last episode to count as another mini-hiatus unfortunately, but hey cut me some slack. With the start of January, I had a weeklong trip in Georgia to see family and ended up nearly dying in the Emergency Room from a septic colon-response that emerged from norovirus. I'm all good now! But it mostly ruined the trip and gave me a solid week and a half of recovery before I could even get back into the swing of the basics. Not the best start to the New Year, but I'm thankful to be alive and running strong as ever! That in mind, we're diving into all things to do with death this episode, and I'm joined by my longtime friend and collaborator Justin Otto -- host of Dharma Junkie Podcast and facilitator at Gulf Coast Dharma. Justin has been heavily steeped in Buddhist practice and study for years now, and while he prefers to call himself a 'Dharma Practitioner' instead of the pigeon-holed spiritual label, he is one of the best people to have around for a conversation like this. With his help, I go through the seminal peer-reviewed scientific study done on reincarnation and natural selection, published in 2000, and titled: The Structure And Function Of Near-Death Experiences: An Algorithmic Reincarnation Hypothesis based on Natural Selection.  This study gets DEEP talking about modern Near-Death Experiences, ancient and modern accounts of Out-of-Body Experiences, chaos theory, anthropology, physics and the nature of algorithms -- and even more! We also take the time to talk about Canadian psychiatrist Dr. Ian Stevenson and his dedication in the last half of his esteemed career to the diligent scientific investigation of reincarnation. Conducted out of the University of Virginia and continued in ways to this day, Stevenson absolutely pioneered the topic of reincarnation as a serious shadow of doubt even for the scientific materialist. Truly, even minds like Carl Sagan were fascinated with what Stevenson was doing and his work still leaves a tremendous amount for us all to digest today! We hope you dig the chat, stay safe out there, and remember to enjoy the small things in life! See you in a couple weeks.

On this week's episode of Unclear and Present Danger, Jamelle and John watched Contact, the 1997 science-fiction drama directed by Robert Zemeckis. Based on the book by Carl Sagan, Contact stars Jodie Foster as Dr. Ellie Arroway, a SETI scientist who discovers extraterrestrial life and is eventually chosen to make first contact with the alien life. Foster is joined by a stacked cast of character actors, including Matthew McConaughey, James Woods, Tom Skerritt, William Fichtner, John Hunt, Rob Lowe and Angela Bassett. In their conversation, Jamelle and John discuss the distinctly neoliberal politics of the film as well as the extent to which Contact is a prominent example of the “end of history” utopianism that marked political and cultural life as the 1990s came to a close.You can find Contact to rent or purchase on Amazon or Apple TV.For the next episode of the podcast, Jamelle and John will watch Air Force One, directed by Wolfgang Petersen and starring Harrison Ford as the president who punches. And don't forget the Patreon, where they watch the political and military thrillers of the Cold War and talk about the politics of those decades! On the most recent episode of the Patreon, Jamelle and John watched the 1970 political drama WUSA. You can listen to that and more at patreon.com/unclearpod.Our producer is Connor Lynch and our artwork is by Rachel Eck.

A deep investigation of mysterious geometric structures on the surface of Mars• Explores a wide variety of anomalous structures on Mars's surface that display a high degree of geometric and pictographic design• Examines sites such as the Elysium pyramid famously described by Carl Sagan and city complexes in the Nepenthes Mensae and Atlantis Chaos regions• Argues that Mayan creation stories of a Star War and Sumerian myths of the Anunnaki provide ancient evidence for the existence of a Martian cultureExploring evidence of a lost Martian civilization and its contact with Earth, investigator George Haas examines a wide variety of anomalous structures and geoglyphs on Mars's surface that display a high degree of geometric and symbolic design that reveal an ancient bond between Earth and Mars. He takes a closer look at Carl Sagan's famous pyramid of Elysium, including high-resolution images released after Sagan's death. Investigating a pair of city complexes in the Nepenthes Mensae region of the Red Planet, Haas shows how the settlements include geometric formations of a five-sided star and a hexagonal pyramid, along with geoglyphic formations representing a dove, a killer whale, and a bat.Examining the Libya Montes region, he reveals a keyhole-shaped formation identical in design to ancient tombs built in Japan. In the Atlantis Chaos region, he investigates the remains of an ancient city nestled along a dead lake, an urban-like array of gridded broken walls and shattered foundations. He then explores a detailed parrot-shaped geoglyph in the large-impact crater known as Argyre Basin that four veterinarians found to possess 22 points of anatomical correctness with terrestrial parrots.George J. Haas is the founder and premier investigator of the Mars research group known as The Cydonia Institute. A member of the Society for Planetary SETI Research, he has coauthored two books and six peer-reviewed science papers related to anomalous formations on the surface of Mars. He has appeared on Coast to Coast AM with George Noory and on the History Channel's Ancient Aliens, The Proof is Out There, and The UnXplained with William Shatner. He lives in Waterford, Virginia.https://thecydoniainstitute.com/Providing an ancient Mesoamerican connection to the civilizations of Mars, Haas looks at a lesser-known Mayan creation story about a Star-War that occurred 800,000 years ago. He reveals parallels between this story and ancient Sumerian stories of the Anunnaki occupation of Earth and Mars as documented by Zecharia Sitchin. Haas also shows how there is a direct correlation between the ruins on Mars and the art and architecture of Mesoamerican cultures, providing clear evidence of a long-disappeared Martian civilization that we are only now rediscovering.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/earth-ancients--2790919/support.

In this whimsical talk and performance, musician and comedian Elle Cordova ponders what happened before the Big Bang. She's then joined by guitarist Toni Lindgren for the original song “Carl Sagan,” exploring social media, human connection and how we're all just reaching out like stars in the night sky.

Melvyn Bragg and guests discuss the tantalising idea that there are shortcuts between distant galaxies, somewhere out there in the universe. The idea emerged in the context of Einstein's theories and the challenge has been not so much to prove their unlikely existence as to show why they ought to be impossible. The universe would have to folded back on itself in places, and there would have to be something to make the wormholes and then to keep them open. But is there anywhere in the vast universe like that? Could there be holes that we or more advanced civilisations might travel through, from one galaxy to another and, if not, why not?
