I, Stewart Alsop, am thrilled to welcome Leon Coe back to the Crazy Wisdom Podcast for a second deep dive. This time, we journeyed from the Renaissance and McLuhan's media theories straight into the heart of theology, church history, and the very essence of faith, exploring how ancient wisdom and modern challenges intertwine. It was a fascinating exploration, touching on everything from apostolic succession to the nature of sin and the search for meaning in a secular age.Check out this GPT we trained on the conversationTimestamps00:43 I kick things off by asking Leon about the Renaissance, Martin Luther, and the profound impact of the printing press on religion.01:02 Leon Coe illuminates Marshall McLuhan's insights on how technologies, like print, shape our consciousness and societal structures.03:25 Leon takes us back to early Church history, discussing the Church's life and sacraments, including the Didache, well before the Bible's formal canonization.06:00 Leon explains the scriptural basis for Peter as the "rock" of the Church, the foundation for the office of the papacy.07:06 We delve into the concept of apostolic succession, where Leon describes the unbroken line of ordination from the apostles.11:57 Leon clarifies Jesus's relationship to the Law, referencing Matthew 5:17 where Jesus states he came to fulfill, not abolish, the Law.12:20 I reflect on the intricate dance of religion, culture, and technology, and the sometimes bewildering, "cosmic joke" nature of our current reality.16:46 I share my thoughts on secularism potentially acting as a new, unacknowledged religion, and how it often leaves a void in our search for purpose.19:28 Leon introduces what he calls the "most terrifying verse in the Bible," Matthew 7:21, emphasizing the importance of doing the Father's will.24:21 Leon discusses the Eucharist as the new Passover, drawing connections to Jewish tradition and Jesus's institution of this central sacrament.Key InsightsTechnology's Shaping Power: McLuhan's Enduring Relevance. Leon highlighted how Marshall McLuhan's theories are crucial for understanding history. The shift from an oral, communal society to an individualistic one via the printing press, for instance, directly fueled the Protestant Reformation by enabling personal interpretation of scripture, moving away from a unified Church authority.The Early Church's Foundation: Life Before the Canon. Leon emphasized that for roughly 300 years before the Bible was officially canonized, the Church was actively functioning. It had established practices, sacraments (like baptism and the Eucharist), and teachings, as evidenced by texts like the Didache, demonstrating a lived faith independent of a finalized scriptural canon.Peter and Apostolic Succession: The Unbroken Chain. A core point from Leon was Jesus designating Peter as the "rock" upon which He would build His Church. This, combined with the principle of apostolic succession—the laying on of hands in an unbroken line from the apostles—forms the Catholic and Orthodox claim to authoritative teaching and sacramental ministry.Fulfillment, Not Abolition: Jesus and the Law. Leon clarified that Jesus, as stated in Matthew 5:17, came not to abolish the Old Testament Law but to fulfill it. This means the Mosaic Law finds its ultimate meaning and completion in Christ, who institutes a New Covenant.Secularism's Spiritual Vacuum: A Modern Religion? I, Stewart, posited that modern secularism, while valuing empiricism, often acts like a new religion that explicitly rejects the spiritual and miraculous. Leon agreed this can lead to a sense of emptiness, as humans inherently long for purpose and connection to a creator, a void secularism struggles to fill.The Criticality of God's Will: Beyond Lip Service. Leon pointed to Matthew 7:21 ("Not everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,' will enter the kingdom of heaven...") as a stark reminder. True faith requires more than verbal profession; it demands actively doing the will of the Father, implying that actions and heartfelt commitment are essential for salvation.The Eucharist as Central: The New Passover and Real Presence. Leon passionately explained the Eucharist as the new Passover, instituted by Christ. Referencing John 6, he stressed the Catholic belief in the Real Presence—that the bread and wine become the literal body and blood of Christ—which is essential for spiritual life and communion with God.Reconciliation and Purity: Restoring Communion. Leon explained the Sacrament of Reconciliation (Confession) as a vital means, given through the Church's apostolic ministry, to restore communion with God after sin. He also touched upon Purgatory as a state of purification for overcoming attachments to sin, ensuring one is perfectly ordered to God before entering Heaven.Contact Information*   Leon Coe: @LeonJCoe on Twitter (X)

Okay, sweet one, let's talk about the grand lie of having a purpose. Because hasn't everyone, at some point, stared into their organic kale salad and wondered, "WHY am I here?"Really, isn't that THE question? We're all chasing that deeper something, the elusive unicorn of purpose, because, well, we think it equals happiness. Glitter cannons and rainbows!Basically, aren't we all just hunting for joy through our jobs, our love lives, and maybe that overpriced yoga retreat? Because let's be honest, if those things led to misery, we'd be binge-watching Netflix instead. (Okay, some days we do both.)So, how do you actually find this magical life purpose?If you boil down every self-help book ever written (and I've read a LOT), two ideas bubble to the surface, like so much kombucha. They create two distinct, shall we say, *vibes* about Life.Vibe #1: Purpose is “Out There!”This is the story we're constantly sold, the narrative with all the bells and whistles. It's the idea that purpose and happiness are about *doing* and *getting*.What exactly are you supposed to be getting?Well, according to the marketing gurus (who are probably sipping martinis on a yacht somewhere), it's always - More! Better!More experiences, more influence, a passive income stream that makes your eyes water, a better house with a walk-in closet for your shoes, a better job that feeds your soul AND pays the bills, better sex (because, duh), and for the truly enlightened, a better, more Instagrammable spirituality.It's always *better* than what you've got right now, darling. But here's the cosmic joke: More and Better *never* actually deliver. As that wise old grump Ecclesiastes put it: "Meaningless! Meaningless! Everything is meaningless! But…life is still amazing.” (Even he couldn't help but throw in an "amazing" at the end!)We all kinda know this, right? We feel it in our bones after every online shopping spree. Still, those clever ads keep whispering promises. So, we jump back on the hamster wheel, convinced *this time* it'll be different. A new job! A soulmate who understands our obsession with miniature dachshunds! A truly transformative experience involving a llama!The catch? It's always a future promise. "Once I _______, then I'll find purpose/happiness/meaning."Once I quit my soul-crushing job, I'll finally be happy.Once I meet Mr./Ms. Right, then I'll know what love REALLY is.The future, my friend, is perpetually "tomorrow." That's the lie behind Vibe #1. The “hedonic treadmill” will leave you exhausted and feeling slightly used. Vibe #2: Your Purpose and Happiness are *Here, Now* Because Honey, *You ARE* the Purpose.The mind really throws a tantrum at this one based on how we've been programmed to have a “PURPOSE.”What if the truth is ridiculously simple: You *are* your purpose? You're here to know and be your glorious, messy, authentic Self as you cast your VISION and allow the listening to answer your CALLING (more on this on my next series of purpose). Seriously, pause for a moment and let that sink in.You're here to express your utterly unique, wonderfully weird, creative Self fully, freely, and fearlessly.Everything else such as your creativity, your relationships, your questionable fashion choices – are just sparkling byproducts of you being *you*.Knowing and being yourself? That's the answer to "What is my highest purpose and the source of my deepest freakin' joy?"The hitch? We've forgotten who we are. From childhood, we get handed a cookie-cutter mold for the "Good Life" who to be, what to want, what success looks like.So, we spend our lives trying to squish ourselves into that mold, developing a seriously messed-up case of mistaken identity. Then BAM! Quarter-life crises! Mid-life meltdowns! (It's all very dramatic, really.) So, how do you start?Embrace the Disillusionment, Darling.If you're feeling a little… blah about life, congratulations! You're right where you need to be. Disillusionment is inevitable. We no longer grasp to who we thought we were, and the one “purpose” we have in this life - and feeling that pressure!Even if you achieve all the things, the shine wears off. (That's just physics.)Own it. There's wisdom in that “blah” feeling. The pain of disillusionment can unlock a whole new, glittery world of freedom and possibilities.Why?Disillusionment means shedding the illusions. Seeing through the B.S. The cultural story that says purpose is “out there” is just a cleverly disguised sales pitch.You've checked the boxes, achieved the goals. But how long did it last? How long before you were chasing the next spiritual high?Spiritual goals are fabulous, but notice how we're always trying to *escape* those uncomfortable feelings.We launch projects, start cleanses, binge-watch cat videos. But eventually, we're back to the same damn questions.Wherever you go, there you are (and your existential baggage). So, you might as well embrace it.Disillusionment is an invitation. Like a pang of hunger, it's your True Self nudging you toward the truth.Look around. Mental illness is on the rise. Loneliness is an epidemic. People are quietly quitting their lives. Clearly, something's gotta give. The way we work, the way we live, the way we define "purpose"… it's all crumbling.That old story that purpose is “out there” keeps us stuck. That's the real question, isn't it? Who are you?Or, more accurately, *what* are you?Time to reframe this, Darling.What Is Your Vision and Soul Calling?A Vision is the art of seeing life's possibilities unfold—a profound and intuitive process that bridges the gap between your inner truth and the external world. It invites you to see not only the road ahead but also the unseen opportunities that lie along your path. Unlike conventional purpose driven vision, which often confines itself to specific, tangible goals, a calling embraces the unknown and empowers you to trust in the unfolding of your life's purpose. It is both a lens and a compass, helping you navigate toward your authentic self.The roots of the word “vision” are steeped in ancient wisdom. Derived from the Proto-Indo-European WEID, meaning “to see” or “to know,” the concept of vision transcends time and space. It reminds you that seeing is not merely a physical act but a deeper knowing—a connection to clarity and purpose that originates from within. THEREFORE. The vision Creates the PATH. Your Calling, is your Life's pursuit of multiple variations as a creator - offering insight and guidance that arises organically from your inner self, rather than being dictated by external expectations.Kassandra

Welcome back to The Trip Report Podcast, a production of Beckley Waves, a Psychedelic Venture Studio.Today, I am speaking with Dennis Walker, AKA the Mycopreneur.I don't know about you, but I am always flummoxed by the seriousness of the discourse among stakeholders in the ‘psychedelic renaissance.'My guess is that this earnestness is the result of a few things:* a reverence and respect for the medicine* an attempt to extend objective scientific rigor to human communication and * the don't-rock-the-boat-formality of the biopharmaceutical industry to avoid regulator scrutiny.But whatever it is that has led to such formality we can be grateful that The Cosmic Joke will reliably appear on the timeline, thanks to Dennis.I imagine that many Trip Report subscribers are familiar with Dennis as the Court Jester of Psychedelics through his satirical video shorts and articles with titles like “Netflix Announces America's Next Top Shaman” and “Drake Enters MDMA-Assisted Therapy after Kendrick Traumatizes Him”.But in addition to lighthearted satire, Dennis and Mycopreneur are also focused on mushroom entrepreneurship beyond psychedelics in areas like myco-materials, mycoremediation, mycofiltration, and mycelium-based food products.It turns out that mushrooms have many, many potential and emerging uses in the modern economy.In this conversation, Dennis and I discuss:* The Origin and Evolution of Mycopreneur* The potential impact of Mushroom-based-technology* The importance of community in the mycological industry* The redefinition of the 'legacy market' versus the 'black market' for psychedelics* The gap between the demand for and the legal supply of legal psychedelic experiences * And much moreAnd now, I bring you my conversation with Dennis Walker.Listen to the episode on Substack, Spotify, Google or Apple.Credits:* Hosted by Zach Haigney * Produced by Zach Haigney, Erin Greenhouse, and Katelin Jabbari* Find us at thetripreport.com* Follow us on Instagram, Twitter, LinkedIn and YouTube* Theme music by MANCHO Sounds, Mixed and Mastered by Rollin Weary This is a public episode.

Dr. Christopher McIntosh returns to InnerVerse to discuss the fascinating and fantastic ideas that are allegorized in his novel, Return of the Tetrad. Some things we explore include the inspirations for this tale and how it relates to his own spiritual journey, magic as a way of seeing the world, black magic and dark occult forces, the Mercurial trickster and devil, ritual replacement of a human psyche with demonic entities, and the cosmic giggle of mystical synchronicity. In the Plus+ Extension, we talk about roles of the sexes in magical lifestyles, the process of occult initiations and the four elements, the Brotherhood of Light, transcendental awareness, the Rosicrucian great game, magical objects, the Prognometer, fate vs. free will, the European mythos of the hairy wild man, and what magical research was like in the pre-internet era.

Your Humble Host is back in his own Jean Shepherd Vault picking out another Shep tape I recorded myself on March 18, 1975 for the Library of Sound (LOS) Volume 296. Today Shep has got a lot on his mind talking of the Transmitter to Life relation, the Cosmic Joke, battery tasting, geography books Jean's gone wild with ideas here. You try to sum it up, I can't. Let's just listen and enjoy the trip.

Ok. Sometimes a podcast lingers too long, and you just need to get it out there and over with. I meant to put this out about a month ago, but got waylaid by a work trip, disease, and a weeklong internet outage (all of the above to be discussed in Eppy 131). Podcast Constipation….. On the other hand, I butcher the Hungarian language and give my impressions of Cats (the musical the movie) and why it is so much worse that I could have ever imaged. No music featured in this one, but we discuss KIÉGETT FÖLD, Cosmic Joke, and Gaupa The next one will be better, I promise

In episode 204 of the podcast, we're joined by Mac Miller, vocalist of Cosmic Joke. We talk Mac's come up in music, the formation of Cosmic Joke, getting to play Tied Down Detroit last year and it being a catalyst to creating music, and how they came to be the first release on Hardlore Records (in conjunction with Triple B Records). We dig into the the self titled record as well, talking songs, album art, and everything in between.  Talking with Mac felt like catching up with an old friend. We think you'll dig this convo!

COSMIC JOKE is a band from the San Fernando Valley and Southern California. They put out a 5 song demo in 2021 and they've played a ton of gigs since then including Tied Down Fest in Detroit earlier this year.

Be Here Now under Maharajji's blanket as Bill returns to the podcast. Baba Here Love and Danny discuss our new band Broke by Tuesday, Criminal Justice, Sports, Basketball, Oneness, The Cosmic Joke, The Birds, Gambling, The best football team ever The Eagles, and Remember Be Here Now. “Humor puts things in perspective. There are many levels of humor. There is a humor of survival, a humor of sex and gratification, a humor connected with power. Beyond all these there is a humor that is filled with compassion. It is reflected in the tiny upturn in the mouth of the Buddha, for he sees the humor in the universal predicament. All beings are lost in illusion, yet he knows that they will awaken from that illusion for they are, at heart, already enlightened. He knows that what seems so hard to them is from another perspective their own path to liberation. Often the perspectives about yourself and the universe that you arrive at through meditation make you want to giggle or laugh. This giggle is without malice. It's a cosmic giggle, one that I identify with my guru, Maharaj-ji. For his giggle was not of this world. It was not a social or personality giggle, but rather a cosmic chuckle, the delight in the fun of it all. His giggle was from the plane that gives us the term “lila,” the divine dance of life.” – Ram Dass. Hey Now. Love Love Love Play Play Play Hey!!! It's all OK OM SHAKTI!!!

While driving his truck, Norio stopped thinking for more than two weeks. Through this experience, Norio realized that the “self” we think we are does not exist. The “self” exists only in our thinking, in our internal dialogue, and is the single source of all human suffering. By recognizing the illusion of the self, Norio awakened to complete peace and unconditional love, a natural state that is humanity's true nature. Norio now shares the insights into the human tapestry into which we're born and how one may naturally and effortlessly experience our true nature." --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/plantcunning/message Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/plantcunning/support

On this episode Matt sits down with Comedian and New Paradigm Storyteller, Carlen Altman. Carlen is a soul in a human costume that has helped create award winning films, comedy, inventions and is mainly interested in solutions for Planet Earth. As an empathic neurodivergent weirdo who gets bored doing “just one thing”, Carlen works with individuals and companies on a variety of projects + goals in the realm of comedy, film, media, activism, technology, holistic + spiritual healing, sustainability and writing - all with the goal of joyfully assisting to raise the consciousness on this planet through creative expression and new ways of doing things. Carlen's various artistic creations have been featured on MTV News and VICE TV and been written about in Refinery29, The Wall Street Journal, Elle, Teen Vogue, Nylon, The New York Times, The New Yorker and other fancy-schmancy places (probably run by aliens). During the conversation we learn the story behind Carlen's comedy career, her spiritual awakening with cannabis and ayahuasca, and her role in creating a new paradigm of comedy aimed towards healing, innocence and the best medicine, laughter. The two then share their respective experiences with living in "the matrix", conspiracy theories, healing through plant medicines, and much more. This is one of the best episodes yet. Please enjoy and share if it resonates. Happy listening.

This week's episode is full of laughter and is definitely medicine for the soul. Comedian, physic and transformational mentor, Kyle Lipton's mission on earth is to reveal the big cosmic joke. If you are yet to see Kyle's videos and hilarious cosmic characters then definitely check out his Instagram (links below as always) and be sure to share this episode with someone who needs a little more laughter in their life.Kyle shares a powerful message whilst bringing laughter and lightness to a topic which can often feel heavy and dense, describing himself as a supernatural mentor bridging the gap between practical and mystical. Kyle loves to bring comedy to the world of spirituality, making the topic easy to digest for everyone.Voted class clown in his yearbook at school, he is super curious and has spent years checking out the many different paths of spirituality. He talks about jumping from one matrix to the other and settling somewhere in the middle. Anyone who has spent time on personal development and delved into the world of spirituality will know it's easy to get very deep and serious, but the point of healing, in most people's case, is to experience more child-like joy in their lives, not more seriousness! What's the point if we can't laugh?  It's not about digging deep to be more spiritually superior, it's about feeling more joyful.Sometimes we think to be spiritual we need to adopt a certain type of identity - always being conscious and looking or sounding a certain way. Kyle reminds us that spirituality is oneness and everything is spiritual, whether we're wearing our boss bitch heels and sipping champagne or we're wearing white and taking part in a sister circle. We don't need it to look a certain way to be spiritual or enough. Kyle is a true Soul Digger, and like myself, enjoys dancing in both worlds. He suggests listening to the little things, slowing down, tuning in and trusting your first thought. By doing this Kyle has experienced the magic of miracles. Listening to his intuition, he booked a one-way ticket to Europe, even though he had just a few dollars to his name, this led to the most transformational trip of his life. When you trust your soul, you'll never be led astray and ultimately you'll attract more abundance into your life.  Kyle goes on to share some tips on having the confidence to be truly soul-expressed - there is someone out there who needs to hear what you have to say, don't choose your insecurity over your impact on the world. This episode is the perfect mix of laughter and wisdom bombs! Enjoy! Screenshot this episode on your device, and tag @kimmellor_ and @thesouldigger_ @kylelipton on Instagram.

Time is an incredibly vast topic and an unparalleled mystery. And today, brothers, we're going to dive deep into life's great illusion. But first, you'd do well to remember that everything that exists is a thought. We manifest everything through our minds first, and that is why we cannot separate ourselves from thought.    Now, time moves horizontally in our minds through fear. That is our linear understanding of time, which ultimately leads to our end, to death. This is the Great Fear, this is what we spend our entire lives running away from. We create the Great Illusion that time will never run out as a coping mechanism for our fear. But time always ends, brothers. And that is why every religion has its own story about what happens after death because to free ourselves from the fear of death is to liberate ourselves from all fear. When we process time with love, we do it vertically in our hearts. This is how we can be present in every moment and live a life without fear. And brothers, presence is where true power lives. There is no fear when we are living in our experience; there is no fear when the movement comes from within. Brothers, here's something that might sweep you off your feet: nothing is ever really occurring. Everything we experience is a fabrication of our minds leading us away from our fear of death. This is the cosmic joke. There is no progress or growth or evolution. Legacy is an illusion. Death is an illusion. But through celebration, we can be truly awakened and live fluid, playful, unpredictable lives without fear. Until next time brothers, elevate your alpha. 

In this first episode of Season 2 we dive straight into the great Lila. And for those wondering, Lila is a Sanskrit word translating to "Divine Play" or what I like to call Cosmic Joke. This whole existence is truly a great Lila, if we're willing to zoom out of any "stressful situation" or really any self - imposed hell created through the mind, then that is when you can truly laugh and enjoy the great Lila of life. In this episode we journey all over as I share a recent plant medicine ceremony with Mama Ayuhuasca and the over arching lesson of how to surrender laugh and have fun with this beautiful life, the Great Lila Herself.

Dear Friend, The Toad came to visit again…this time in an even higher dose than I described in episode one of this Podcast. A week later, it hasn't left me. I pray that this episode touches you, the audience, in a place that allows you to experience what I am living through now. The field behind everything we think is real cannot be described in words…but if I were to put a name on it…I would call it love. If I could give any of you a gift, it would be the annihilation of ALL of your beliefs. I would give you a righteous death. It would be my absolute pleasure to kill the you that you think is you. Of course, the initiation is seeking true WILL in the ever-living moment. And if you get to the bottom of it, there is a laugh waiting for you that is the BIG BANG that created ALL you can ever experience. The COSMIC JOKE is hilarious beyond any stretch of the imagination. And when we get it…all that's left is ecstasy and a sense of fulfilled rapture that opens the doors to ACTUAL LIFE. May this episode do something for you. Is. Complete. Perfect. __________________________________________________________ Please message me, leave a comment, or drop your email at https://thesagesurfer.comSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

That Sex Chick, Alexa returns to the Bodies by Brent Podcast after her recent trip to Peru, hiking the Inca trail, visiting Machu Pichu, and taking San Pedro in a plant ceremony.The last time she was on the podcast, she set the intention of “wanting to go viral on TikTok” and one of our previous clips did go viral, just not on her TikTok. This made her realize how important being direct with our manifestations is.Alexa made time for us before her women's group, which is much more than just a group of friends. With no longer living in their hometown, the support network of family and community is often hard to come by, but we get to see an inside look at how to create your own community of support filled with love. Alexa then answers questions she often faces as a sex coach and how it pertains to a healthy relationship. The biggest takeaway? Communication is key. Check out her newest venture, Sex Coach Prep School if you're looking to get the most out of your sex life and relationships. What we learn from Alexa in this episode: How to play the Rose, Bud, Thorn game - and why it's importantWhy throwing everything at your relationship makes it strongerHow to approach your partner in to “exploring” moreWhy good sex starts with communicationWhat it takes to build a true community away from your hometownWhy you need to be “down” with your partnerHow finding a partner you “fight well” with is imperative for successAlexa's InstagramSex Coach Prep SchoolBodies by BrentBodies by Brent: My CommunityBodies by Brent: TiktokBodies by Brent: Instagram Bodies by Brent: YoutubeThis episode's sponsor: Athletic Greens See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

Today's Episode of The Cosmic Joke....Speaks a lot about sitting in the uncomfortable. The void space. Nowhere to go. Nothing to do. We talk about how our perceptions & feelings OR avoidance of our feelings determine our experiences. The people that we attract into our life are NOT always magnetised to us through joyous commonalities, yet sometimes through trauma bonding & emotional cycles too. It's a deep, soft & centred episode. Enjoy x

A Record Club episode in which we listen to and talk about 'The Decline' by NOFX. How did this happen? What are the possible outcomes? Also discussed, Avril Lavigne's TikTok, Cokie the Clown, and gambling on tennis. All this and a debut from COSMIC JOKE!
