My best gal pal tried to get me to try mushroom coffee over a year ago. I still haven't tried it. Recently more friends started mentioning they were drinking it. I thought OK well maybe I should look into it.  I'm not the biggest mushroom fan, though I do like them sauteed in olive oil well done and I'm always interested in a good marsala dish! But you'll never get me to eat a really wild mushroom that my other half (a former chef ) might pick up excitedly while foraging through the woods. No matter how hard he tries to convince me that wild mushrooms are a delicacy, I refuse to 'go down' from an accidentally poisonous mushroom.  Because I follow trends, I have become aware that the trend of 'functional mushrooms and things like mushroom coffee are… well mushrooming!  So, I decided to do a little research. On my Wellness Wednesday: Keeping the "Live" in Alive! segment, I sat down with John P. Gorst, founder of Ancient Extracts, to understand what's behind what is clearly becoming more than just a quirky health trend.   This Isn't Fringe Anymore—It's a Movement Here's what got my attention: Mushroom coffee interest has surged dramatically in the last 2–3 years It's part of a multi-billion-dollar functional beverage category Some brands are already doing hundreds of millions in sales And it's quietly making its way into mainstream retail There is a definite shift in how people think about energy, focus, and daily rituals.   From Coffee Crashes to Steady Energy John's story was interesting. He went from 3–4 lattes a day to trying mushroom coffee and noticing: No more afternoon crashes More consistent energy No desperate reach for a "power nap"   What's Actually In Mushroom Coffee? Functional mushroom ingredients like: Lion's Mane for focus & mental clarity Reishi for calm & stress support Chaga & Cordyceps for energy & immunity   My guest John P. Gorst also mentioned something called 'Shilajit'. What? It's a hundreds of years old mineral-rich substance that that stinks that literally oozes from Himalayan rocks high up in the mountains. John mixes this stuff every morning into his morning mushroom coffee.  I couldn't help but ask; "Who is the heck is climbing these mountains to go get this stuff? And what's the appeal?  John says 'Shilajit' … Is packed with trace minerals our bodies need   Supports cellular energy Taps into the growing "replace what modern life depleted" mindset Very Wild… but apparently very on trend.   Why This Trend Is Blowing Up Right Now This is the bigger story. We are in the middle of a "coffee that does more" revolution. People don't just want caffeine anymore. They want: Focus without jitters Energy without crashes Daily habits that double as wellness tools And yes… even decaf that actually gives you energy. It's a mindset shift.   Where This Is Going Mushroom coffee is still a small slice of the overall coffee market, but it's pointing to something much bigger:  The rise of functional everything  The merging of wellness and convenience  And consumers demanding more from everyday products   My Take? I went into this conversation skeptical. I came out thinking: "Okay… there's something here." I love innovation. I love when people rethink everyday habits. And I REALLY love when something helps people feel better in a smarter way. So yes… I said it on-air, and I'll say it here: Ok fine fine fine… I'll try the mushroom coffee. John offered to send me some Ancient Extracts Mushroom Coffee to try.  I'll report back.   Here's a Thought to Consider Maybe pay attention to the things that make you say: "That's weird." Because more than not… those are the things quietly becoming what's next.   Enjoy the mushroom education in this podcast of my live conversation with John P. Gorst, founder of Ancient Extracts on Wellness Wednesday on The Debbie Nigro Show where my focus is all about "Keeping the LIVE in Alive!"

Declassified CIA documents. Computer code in the equations of reality. A physicist from Army intelligence. Simulation theory just got its first real experiment.Is simulation theory just philosophy — or did the CIA already have the answer in a classified 1983 document? Here, I deep dive the evidence that reality may be a simulated construct, from error-correcting codes found in string theory to the declassified CIA Gateway Process file that describes the universe as a holographic projection decoded by consciousness.Topics (among others):The Probability Trap: Why Nick Bostrom's simulation hypothesis cornered science into admitting simulated reality may be the most likely option.The Code in the Physics: How S. James Gates Jr. found error-correcting computer code embedded in the equations of supersymmetry and string theory.The Double-Slit Problem: Why some believe the most famous experiment in physics behaves like a video game engine that only renders what's being observed.The CIA Gateway Process: A classified 1983 Army intelligence document, Monroe Institute Hemi-Sync binaural beats, and a holographic universe — buried for two decades.The Fermilab Holometer: Why the U.S. Department of Energy built a machine to test whether spacetime has a Planck-scale resolution limit.The Physicist From Army Intelligence: How Thomas Campbell went from Army intelligence and the Monroe Institute to publishing My Big TOE and co-authoring simulation experiments with Caltech and JPL — now underway.Consider Supporting + Receive Bonus Content⁠

In this episode of Energy Vista, Leslie Palti-Guzman sits down with Geoffrey Pyatt, former US Assistant Secretary of State for Energy Resources and former Ambassador to Greece and Ukraine, for a candid conversation on the new energy geopolitics of the Eastern Mediterranean.Why is Greece emerging as a strategic energy gateway linking the Levant, the Middle East, North Africa, the Balkans, the Black Sea, and Ukraine? How does LNG, power interconnection, and infrastructure investment reshape Europe's security after Russia's invasion of Ukraine? And why does the future of the region hinge not only on gas molecules, but also on electrons, transmission lines, and diplomacy?We unpack the momentum behind East Med cooperation, from Israel–Egypt gas ties to undersea electricity interconnectors, and tackle the hard questions:Can energy cooperation really stabilize historically tense regions? Who could disrupt this fragile alignment? And how should Europe and the US think about Turkey, Qatar, and the shifting balance of power across the Eastern Mediterranean?A must-listen conversation at the intersection of energy, strategy, and transatlantic geopolitics.

In this episode, I'm pulling back the curtain on a question that landed in my DMs: How do I plan to incorporate my shamanic training into my hypnosis work in the future? The short answer: I already do. The deeper answer? That's what this episode is all about. Many people think of the subconscious as just a storage bin for beliefs and programs. But this mindset is limited. The subconscious is far more—it's a convergence zone where identity, neuroscience, and consciousness meet. And when you bring shamanic principles into ethical, client-led hypnosis, you're no longer just clearing blocks... you're helping someone remember who they truly are.

Think 16K visuals wrapped around you, 20,000 speakers, and a seat that literally vibrates with the bass. Wild. But while I was sitting there, totally immersed in this billion-dollar light show, something clicked—and it has everything to do with your podcast. In this episode, I'm sharing the wild Vegas story (yes, there's a flower-themed hotel room involved), but more importantly, I'm breaking down a key lesson: your content has to stand on its own. If your podcast can't hold up without flashy video or AI-enhanced effects, then what are we really doing? We'll talk: What the Sphere experience taught me about real, effective content Why audio-only still matters (and honestly might be better) How video can help—but also hurt—your show if it's distracting The pressure podcasters feel to go “full video” and why you don't have to This one's packed with a story, a little inspiration, and a reminder to keep things real. Because if Kenny Chesney can crush it with just his guitar and a mic—so can you.
