Seriah is joined by Edson Freeman, to discuss his excellent book, Strange Light. It tells diverse stories of people with lifetimes of paranormal experiences, and how it has affected them.* Outro Music by Grey's Anathema with MudfishFrom Amazon: What happens when ordinary people meet the extraordinary? In Strange Light, author Edson Freeman gathers riveting firsthand accounts of lives upended by events that defy explanation-UFO encounters, near‑death experiences, psychic awakenings, startling synchronicities, and mysterious lights dancing over the Marfa desert.Spanning North America, Australia, the UK, India, and Japan, these personal narratives include prophetic dreams that came true, conversations with departed loved ones, and face‑to‑face meetings with non‑human intelligences. Freeman lets each witness speak in their own voice: no sensationalism, no dismissal-just the raw, unfiltered moment when the boundaries of consensus reality give way.Readers curious about consciousness studies, paranormal phenomena, and fringe science will find an empathetic yet pragmatic exploration of the questions mainstream culture struggles to ask. If you appreciate the investigative rigor of Leslie Kean, the human warmth of John Mack, or the sense of wonder in Chris Bledsoe, Strange Light invites you to rethink what you thought was impossible.

In progressive religion, African-Americans occupy a sacred caste status—beyond criticism, requiring constant resource redistribution. Yet this narrative ironically continues black America's core historical theme: dehumanization. Leftists project onto black Americans whatever serves their power needs rather than seeing them authentically. Growing up in majority-black Philadelphia taught me that most progressives from whiter areas fundamentally misunderstand black culture, perpetuating the very dehumanization they claim to oppose.

FIVE MILLENIUM AFTER THE NEO IMPACT, WHAT CIVILIZATIONS REVIVE AND THRIVE?  1/8: After 1177 B.C.: The Survival of Civilizations by  Eric H. Cline  (Author) 1200 BCE MINOAN https://www.amazon.ca/After-1177-B-C-Survival-Civilizations/dp/0691192138 At the end of the acclaimed history 1177 B.C., many of the Late Bronze Age civilizations of the Aegean and Eastern Mediterranean lay in ruins, undone by invasion, revolt, natural disasters, famine, and the demise of international trade. An interconnected world that had boasted major empires and societies, relative peace, robust commerce, and monumental architecture was lost and the so-called First Dark Age had begun. Now, in After 1177 B.C., Eric Cline tells the compelling story of what happened next, over four centuries, across the Aegean and Eastern Mediterranean world. It is a story of resilience, transformation, and success, as well as failures, in an age of chaos and reconfiguration.

What actually caused the downfall of the great civilizations this Earth has seen? In 1934, social anthropologist J.D. Unwin made a vigorous scientific attempt to answer this question. He studied 86 different cultures, including the Roman, Greek, Sumerian, Arabian, Babylonian and Anglo-Saxon civilizations. He had expected to find that monogamy had no real influence on these cultures. But by the end of his study, Unwin came to a much different conclusion. He found that throughout history in nearly every civilization, sexual license and the decline of monogamy lead to irreversible societal collapse within just three generations. Tune in to hear us break down his findings and explain them through the lens of the yoga wisdom. Highlights: (0:59) Why make decisions in life that are against the trend? Because it's better for you. (8:59) Summarizing Unwin's study; when sexual restraints disappear, so do rational thinking (22:45) Marriage is what holds the powerful force of lust at bay, but more and more people just want to be able to “lick the icing off the cake” and then move on (33:30) Balakhilya witnessed the sex and drugs revolution of the 60's and saw the consequences of a “whatever feels good” mentality (46:10) The more knowledge we have, the better our choices will be—for the well-being of everyone Recorded on November 12, 2022. https://linktr.ee/breakingtrail

Tom Bilyeu takes us on a deep dive into the cautionary tale of Argentina—a country that once stood shoulder to shoulder with the world's wealthiest nations, only to crumble under the weight of hyperinflation, runaway debt, and political promises of “free stuff.” Drawing powerful parallels between Argentina's century-long decline and the current economic landscape in America, Tom unpacks the dangerous cycle created by debt-fueled policies, unchecked populism, and a culture that rewards taking over making. As the US inches closer to a tipping point with soaring debt and increasing political polarization, Tom explores the recurring patterns that have led countries astray and asks: Are we doomed to repeat Argentina's mistakes? Along the way, he introduces us to the key players and ideas shaping America's future—from Ayn Rand's philosophy of "makers vs. takers," to the rise of socialist policies in major cities, and the dramatic reforms in Argentina under Javier Milei. With a blend of historical insight, economic analysis, and actionable advice, this episode offers a roadmap for individuals, families, and policymakers on how to avoid economic disaster and reignite the spirit of innovation and prosperity. So buckle up for an episode that doesn't just diagnose the problem—but challenges you to be part of the solution.

Smart college applicants know not to let artificial intelligence agents write their entire personal statement but might shudder at the idea of ignoring these tools entirely. How much is too much? Amy and Mike invited educator Razi Hecker to explore how much AI is just right in the college essay. What are five things you will learn in this episode? Should students avoid AI entirely when writing their college application essays? At what points in the writing process can AI be most helpful? What tasks can be AI-assisted and which ones should never be? Is there a danger that use of AI might be detected by essay readers? Why is a main thesis so critical for effective college essays? MEET OUR GUEST Razi Hecker is a Harvard graduate (Cum Laude, B.A. in Near Eastern Languages and Civilizations) and a creative writer whose work appears in literary journals, news outlets, and the most recent edition of 50 Successful Harvard Application Essays. With over 2,000 hours of college essay coaching and 10+ years in education and creative writing, Razi helps students transform personal experiences into powerful, memorable admissions narratives. His students have been accepted to every Ivy League school, as well as Stanford, MIT, and Caltech. This past year alone, over 70% of Razi's top retainer students were admitted to at least one Ivy. Those who didn't landed spots at other elite institutions such as Johns Hopkins, Carnegie Mellon, UC Berkeley, and Washington University. Find Razi at League Bound Consulting.

Israel's war on Iran is not so much preemptive, as it is reactive: Iran, after all, through its proxies, has been attacking the Jewish nation for years, most horrifically, perhaps, on October 7, 2023. And now, as Israel targets Iran's military structures and nuclear sites, Iran is responding by hitting Israel's housing sectors and its main hospital. It really is a case of clashing worldviews; it really is a matter of good versus evil. Yael Eckstein, president of the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews, is on the ground, in the war-torn areas, setting personal safety aside to get food, medical supplies and other necessities to those Israelis who've seen their homes destroyed by Iranian missiles, or have been displaced out of fears of airstrikes.

In a culture that increasingly downplays masculinity and the traditional family, Hanson calls for a reevaluation of fatherhood—not as an optional accessory, but as a cornerstone of moral courage, responsibility, and strength on today's episode of "Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words." “ One of the roles of fathers is to give young children, especially males, a sense of direction. And almost this tragic sense that sometimes you have to do things that you don't want to do, but somebody else won't do them, you're going to be in trouble.  “To the degree this country will make it, it will be a strong father figure that instructs us how to be masculine. How to be a man. How to protect the weak. How to stand forward and challenge bullies, that prey on the weak and the innocent. And that's a lost art now.  00:00 Introduction to Father's Day 00:54 Personal Reflections on Father's Day 01:37 Lessons from My Father 01:56 Stories of My Father's Support 05:15 The Role of Fathers in Society 06:22 Conclusion and Final Thoughts

In this episode 33 of JT's Mixtape, the JT &  @demonerasers  delve into the significance of the number 33, exploring its connections to Freemasonry and numerology. They discuss the implications of seeking signs and omens, referencing biblical warnings against such practices. The conversation shifts to historical figures and their tombs, questioning the narratives surrounding their burials. The hosts then tackle the mystery of where all the bodies are buried, considering theories about mass disposal and catacombs, ultimately suggesting a deeper spiritual significance to these topics. In this conversation, the hosts delve into the dark fascination with catacombs and ancient civilizations, exploring the mysteries hidden beneath our feet. They discuss the Book of Enoch and its insights into the afterlife, while also addressing the modern surveillance state and the compromises made by those in power. The conversation emphasizes the importance of faith and the pursuit of truth in a world filled with darkness and control.Please support our sponsor Modern Roots Life: https://modernrootslife.com/?bg_ref=rVWsBoOfcFPatreon: https://www.patreon.com/c/JT_Follows_JCJESUS SAID THERE WOULD BE HATERS: https://jtfollowsjc.com/product-category/mens-shirts/ WOMEN'S SHIRTS:https://jtfollowsjc.com/product-category/womens-shirts/Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/jt-s-mix-tape--6579902/support.

BOOKS UNDER DISCUSSION: Leslie Butler, Consistent Democracy: The "Woman Question" and Self-Government in Nineteenth-Century America (Oxford University Press, 2023). Holly Case, The Age of Questions: Or, A First Attempt at an Aggregate History of the Eastern, Social, Woman, American, Jewish, Polish, Bullion, Tuberculosis, and Many Other Questions over the Nineteenth Century, and Beyond by Holly Case (Princeton University Press, 2018) Civilizations have faced challenges and debated how to manage them probably as long as civilization has existed. In our era we talk about these challenges as issues, or crises when perceived as more urgent. In the nineteenth century, what we now call issues or problems tended to be spoken of as questions. In this sprawling conversation, ranging from nineteenth-century “trolls” to the scalability of democracy in a various media ecosystems, Leslie Butler and Holly Case talk not only about the 19th-century questions that have captivated them as scholars, but also how, where, by whom, and to what ends these questions were discussed. When did posing questions serve to bring rationality and even-handedness to debates and when was it a rhetorical strategy intended to steer towards a particular end? Butler's analysis of the “Woman Question” in America's pursuit of “consistent democracy” distinguished between public opinion and published opinion while Case implicates the internationalization of the public sphere in the emergence of an “Age of Questions.” Have a listen as these erudite scholars contemplate the ways historians might navigate between the Scylla of cynicism and Charybdis of overly earnest naiveté in analyzing the past as well as in our current moment. Leslie Butler is a Professor of History at Dartmouth College in Hanover, NH. She is an American intellectual and cultural historian, with an emphasis on the nineteenth century. Holly Case is a historian of modern Europe at Brown University in Providence, RI. Her work focuses on the relationship between foreign policy, social policy, science, and literature in the European state system of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries.
