Podcasts about Parapsychology

Mark Booth is the author of several comprehensive books including The Sacred History: How Angels, Mystics, and Higher Intelligence Made Our World, The Secret History of the World,  The Secret History of the Universe: How Ancient Wisdom Made the Modern World, and The Secret History of Dante: Unearthing the Mysteries of the Inferno. Mark explores the esoteric and initiatory dimensions of Dante Alighieri's Divine Comedy, linking the poet's vivid journey through Hell, Purgatory, and Heaven to the ancient mystery-school traditions that survived in the Knights Templar. He examines Dante's close connection to Brunetto Latini, the Templars' influence on the poem's cosmology and imagery, and the ways Dante's unconsummated love for Beatrice elevates romantic love into a cosmic, spiritual force. Booth also discusses how Dante's experience of initiation beneath the streets of Florence, his portrayal of contemporary figures in Hell, and his vision of a universe moved entirely by love reveal a hidden mystical current running through medieval Catholicism and Western culture. 00:00:00 Introduction 00:04:09 Dante and Beatrice 00:12:51 Knights Templar origins 00:21:08 Templars and Dante 00:27:41 Virgil as guide 00:32:37 Templar persecution 00:37:14 Church and occult 00:42:13 Popes in hell 00:44:50 Conclusion New Thinking Allowed host, Jeffrey Mishlove, PhD, is author of The Roots of Consciousness, Psi Development Systems, and The PK Man.

All this Ghost Hunter-ing had to start somewhere. But where? And when!? We venture back to 1976, for an episodic program that explored the unknown, and found an early television appearance by the legendary Hans Holzer. The show: In Search of... Ghosts. The host: Leonard Nimoy. The vibe: Genuine curiosity of a kind no longer available on TV. Then we dive into some strange (and entirely normal) happenings in the Mouthgarf Report... and we follow it all with I See What You Did There!  Edited by: Kelly Attaway Sources: www.youtube.com/watch?v=riCc0vCQrN0 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/In_Search_of..._(TV_series) https://wearethemutants.com/2018/02/08/theory-and-conjecture-in-search-of-and-the-golden-age-of-paranormal-investigation/ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hans_Holzer Please give us a 5 star rating on Apple Podcasts!  Want to ask us a question?

Parapsychologist Lisa Puzo Strickland joins us for a wide-ranging, unrestrained conversation about the thread she sees running through everything: consciousness. From precognitive dreams she started having at fifteen, while attending a private Baptist school in the middle of Los Angeles, to a PhD in philosophy and parapsychology and a deep dive into the UAP/NHI field, Lisa makes the case that psi, nature, non-human intelligence, and even brain-computer interfaces are all wired to the same source. The through-line is fear, and what to do with it. Lisa's refrain, "you don't prepare someone for fear with fear", anchors a talk that moves from the amygdala hijack to the Minoans meeting the octopus, from biomimicry and Velcro to the overview effect, from Congressional disclosure to a lecture where the lights started dancing. It's optimistic without being naive: a call to open the aperture, keep your feet in the ground, choose credible sources, and meet whatever's coming together. (00:30) Welcome (01:00) Precognitive dreams at fifteen — and reconciling psi with a strict religious upbringing (04:00) Pastor Rasmussen's "God laid it on my heart" moment, and resolving conflicting beliefs as psychological blocks (05:30) Radio in LA, West Hills sightings, and mistaking the others for Hughes aircraft (07:30) Leaving the entertainment industry; the PhD, and finding the science behind the paranormal (08:00) Consciousness as "the train and the train tracks" — the connective tissue between humans, nature, UAP/NHI, and AI (13:00) Control, "othering," and divide-and-conquer as the oldest trick in the book (15:00) Nature as the model: collaboration over predation (16:00) The radio-station metaphor — nobody is a passive player (20:00) Biomimicry: Velcro from cockleburrs, and the vine that shelters instead of smothers (26:00) The amygdala hijack, mantises, and the "four types" (27:30) The Minoans and the octopus; eclipse fear; "you don't prepare someone for fear with fear" (31:00) The octopus as a genuinely alien consciousness (33:00) Telepathy, channeling, missing time, levitation, teleportation — the parapsychology inside the UAP experience (35:00) A VIP dinner with three very different guests, and how it all looped together (38:00) The "aliens.gov" debacle, gatekeeping, and advocates who become the apparatus (40:00) Humility as a neurological trigger, and the three most powerful words: "I don't know" (41:00) The lecture where the lights started dancing (43:00) Glimmers, awe, and the overview effect (45:30) Adaptability and belief — why "we're not ready" is insulting (48:00) Fear, done thoughtfully — horror as a way to war-game the unknown (50:00) Coming disclosure, Congress, and a deep respect for experiencers (55:00) Why there's no single "grail" file — and why decentralization might be the good news (57:00) Gratitude to the media, the local-news equalizer, and getting everyone to the same table Notable moments "Consciousness isn't just that bridge. Consciousness is the train itself. It's the train and the train tracks." "You do not prepare someone for fear with fear." "I've always thought that the three most powerful words in the universe were 'I don't know.'" People, places & references mentioned: Contact in the Desert — the UAP/UFO conference where this conversation was recorded Pastor Rasmussen — the pastor whose "precog dream" helped Lisa reconcile faith and psi Eric Davis — physicist, referenced re: the "four types" Travis Walton — cited for his multi-day missing-time account William Henry (Ancient Aliens), Travis Taylor (Skinwalker Ranch), and Rizwan Virk (author of The Simulation Hypothesis) — the three dinner guests Diana Walsh Pasulka — referenced on the overview effect Avi Loeb and Garry Nolan — named among the academics bringing rigor to the field Lue Elizondo — UAP researcher and author Rear Adm. Tim Gallaudet — named among current disclosure voices Congressman Tim Burchett — referenced re: an upcoming meeting and his "wouldn't sleep at night" remark Mario Puzo (The Godfather) and James Connolly — Lisa's relatives, on her Italian and Irish sides Biomimicry, the amygdala hijack, and the overview effect — recurring frameworks throughout About the guest Lisa Puzo Strickland credits her inner voice for guiding a 30-year career across radio, records, and television. Her search to understand intuition ran through religion, psychology, philosophy, and spirituality, and a turn toward quantum physics surfaced the parallels between nature, science, and paradigm-shifting life principles that eventually led to a PhD in Philosophy and Parapsychology. Her work now spans AI, cryptocurrency, biomimicry, and the pending disclosure of non-human intelligence (NHI/UAP) — all of which, she argues, connect. Lisa lives in Franklin, TN, with her husband and two children. Find Lisa: Website: LisaPuzoStricklandPhD.com Facebook: Lisa Puzo Strickland, PhD

Bernardo Kastrup, PhD, is a computer scientist, who has recently completed a second doctoral degree in philosophy. He is author of Rationalist Spirituality, Why Materialism is Baloney, Dreamed Up Reality, Meaning in Absurdity, Brief Peeks Beyond, More Than Allegory, The Idea of the World, and Decoding Schopenhauer's Metaphysics. His latest book is Decoding Jung's Metaphysics: The Archetypal Semantics of an Experiential Universe. He has published several papers on Scientific American's website arguing for metaphysical idealism. His website is https://www.bernardokastrup.com/. In this interview, rebooted from 2021, he addresses a series of questions related to the possibilities for different versions of postmortem survival (i.e., reincarnation, possession, mediumistic communication, etc.) in the light of metaphysical idealism. He notes that, in all cases, he expects that the mental contents of personal consciousness will remain as part of an impersonal universal mind – i.e., the one mind that sees through the eyes of all creatures. With regard to the findings of psychical research and spiritualism, his attitude – while open-minded – was one of uncertainty and doubt concerning the quality of the purported evidence. New Thinking Allowed host, Jeffrey Mishlove, PhD, is author of The Roots of Consciousness, Psi Development Systems, and The PK Man.

Roy Stemman, former editor of Psychic News, is author of Spirits and Spirit Worlds, Reincarnation: True Stories of Past Lives, Spirit Communication, One Soul Many Lives, Mysteries of the Universe, Healers and Healing, Medium Rare: The Psychic Life of Ena Twigg, and (with George Chapman) Surgeon From Another World. Here he describes the relationship between the British spiritualist movement and the Anglican Church, beginning with a report commissioned by the Church in the 1930s. In 1967, the Episcopal Bishop of California, James Pike, publicly reported on his communications with his deceased son through the mediumship of Ena Twigg in London. Pike gave up his position as Bishop to pursue other studies, including after-death communication. Later, in a dramatic event, he became lost in the desert in Israel. After his death, but before his body was discovered, he appeared in spirit to Ena Twigg.

Chris Carter is a physics teacher who was educated at Oxford, England. He is author of four books that make him one of the most significant authors today exploring the question of life after death. They include Science and the Near-Death Experience, Science and Psychic Phenomena, and Science and the Afterlife Experience. His most recent book is The Case for the Afterlife: Evidence of Life After Death. Chris argues that science does not speak with a single voice on the afterlife and examines why many prominent scientists have remained open to questions of consciousness beyond death. He explores five major lines of evidence including near-death experiences, deathbed visions, children's memories of previous lives, apparitions, and mediumship while discussing how standards of scientific evidence should be applied to extraordinary claims. Carter contends that a rigorous examination of the evidence invites a broader philosophical understanding of reality and survival beyond bodily death. 00:00:00 Introduction 00:03:02 Scientists and belief 00:08:03 Creator and afterlife 00:12:02 Five lines of evidence 00:17:32 Skepticism and proof 00:22:12 Quantum perspectives 00:27:06 Reincarnation research 00:32:06 Strongest mediumship cases 00:38:16 Deathbed vision evidence 00:47:18 Conclusion New Thinking Allowed host, Jeffrey Mishlove, PhD, is author of The Roots of Consciousness, Psi Development Systems, and The PK Man.

He is also the Grand Prize winner of the 2021 Bigelow Institute essay competition regarding the best evidence for survival of human consciousness after permanent bodily death.

Stafford Betty, PhD, is Emeritus Professor of Religious Studies at California State University, Bakersfield. He is author of Heaven and Hell Unveiled, The Afterlife Unveiled, and When Did You Ever Become Less by Dying? He has also written two novels, based on his studies of spiritualism, whose protagonists are deceased figures in the afterlife, The Imprisoned Splendor and The Afterlife Therapist. Here he describes various aspects of his understanding of the afterlife, as portrayed in his novel, The Afterlife Therapist. Some of the recently deceased do not realize that they have died. Many conflicts exist on the astral planes. These are seen as opportunities for soul growth. Reincarnation is also an option. Guides and teachers encourage souls to progress to higher planes of existence.

Laurel Airica (1944-2024) was a Linguistic Evolutionary and Educational Entertainer. She is the creator of WordMagic – a way of playing with words that makes people smarter, wiser, kinder, and more literate. Laurel shows in verse and prose how young and old around the globe can collectively, creatively, and quite rapidly take command of the English language and upgrade it to facilitate our essential evolutionary leap from humankind to HumanKindness. She is author of, Horsing Around: The Inside Word on Marriage and Horses, WordMagic: WordPlay That Puts a New Spin on the Whirled and the Book of E: A Book of Alphabet Alchemy. Her website is laurelairica.com. In this video, rebooted from 2022, Laurel describes how we can self-awaken through wordplay. She plays with words that coexist with different concepts that are married through sounds, such as a homonym or pun. She has developed an intuitive “inner-standing” of how language echoes and reflects us. She suggests that the English language is the leading software of the western mind. However, words can be debilitating, confusing, and loaded with subliminal and contradictory messages. We can collectively and creatively upgrade language to support evolution in consciousness. Love turned around is the beginning of “evol-ution.” When we know we're divine – “am-God” – backward of “dogma”, it's more possible to believe we have supernatural capabilities.

Ruth Kastner, PhD, is a member of the Foundations of Physics group at the University of Maryland, College Park. She is author of The Transactional Interpretation of Quantum Mechanics: The Reality of Possibility, Understanding Our Unseen Reality: Solving Quantum Riddles, and Adventures in Quantumland: Exploring Our Unseen Reality. In this video, rebooted from 2021, she contrasts the "eternalist" view of physics, as expressed in the idea of a "block universe" based on Einstein's theory of relativity, with a "dynamical" view as expressed in the transactional interpretation of quantum mechanics. These interpretations of the physical universe both allow some form of human postmortem survival – although they appear to be quite different from each other.

Tom Campbell, a physicist, is author of the three-volume set, My Big TOE, describing a meta-theory that offers an account of the paranormal, as well as other scientific mysteries. He is also the founder of the Center for Unification of Science and Consciousness. His websites are https://www.my-big-toe.com/ and https://cusac.org Tom explains why he now calls his model the reality rather than a reality after 20 years of finding no factual violation of it. He describes consciousness as fundamental — an information system that computes our physical universe as a virtual reality entropy-reduction trainer where we evolve through choices between love and fear. Campbell discusses entropy, synchronicity, alien encounters, dreams, and why living gracefully with uncertainty matters more than asking if an experience was real. 00:00:00 Introduction 00:04:02 Early paranormal experiences with Bob Monroe 00:17:29 Entropy and consciousness evolution 00:30:53 Virtual reality and the data stream 00:42:11 Love versus fear as ethical choices 00:54:59 Science beyond materialism and mathematics 01:07:56 Synchronicity and non-human intelligence 01:20:00 Fear tests and interactions with beings 01:35:07 Meaning of experiences and growth 01:53:18 Conclusion New Thinking Allowed host, Jeffrey Mishlove, PhD, is author of The Roots of Consciousness, Psi Development Systems, and The PK Man.

David Hanscom, M.D. is an orthopedic complex spinal deformity surgeon who quit his surgical practice in 2019 to focus on teaching people how to break loose from the grip of chronic mental and physical pain – with and without surgery. His insights arose out of escaping from his own 15-year ordeal of suffering with severe chronic pain. As he began to share his approaches with his patients, a predictable sequence of learning evolved. It is reflected in the self-directed action plan that he created, The DOC (Direct your Own Care) Journey. He is author of Back in Control: A Surgeon's Roadmap Out of Chronic Pain; Do You Really Need Spine Surgery?: Take Control with a Spine Surgeon's Advice; and Calm Your Body, Heal Your Mind: Transcend Pain, Anxiety, Anger, and Repetitive Unwanted Thoughts. His website is backincontrol.com. David explains how the ego is often a fragile story that is created in response to criticism, survival anxiety, and the need to feel safe. Many of these stories are cognitive distortions that can keep people trapped in repetitive unwanted thoughts, pain, and anxiety. He shares ways to soften the ego and move from surviving to thriving with flexibility, awareness, and compassion. 00:00 Introduction 02:48 Reasons for the ego 08:32 Defending the identity 14:03 Mental pain and cognitive distortions 25:40 Stress physiology 28:28 Thriving vs. survival 38:52 Awareness and attachments 47:05 Compassion focused therapy 53:33 Safety 56:19 Conclusion New Thinking Allowed CoHost, Emmy Vadnais, OTR/L, is a licensed occupational therapist, intuitive healer and coach, and spiritual guide based in St. Paul, Minnesota.

Mark Boccuzzi is the cofounder, with his wife Julie Beischel, of the Windbridge Institute and the Windbridge Research Center. He is author of Visualizing Intention: Art Informed by Science. He is also author or coauthor of many scientific papers on the study of spirit mediumship. In this video, originally released in 2021, he describes his research activities with mediums. He notes that most mediums say that they can distinguish between spirit communication and other forms of psychic functioning. He has endeavored to find physiological and psychological markers of accurate psi-mediated information from mediums with tantalizing and suggestive results. He is also developing a "sitter's bill of rights" – helping to educate people who wish to engage the service of a spirit medium about how to obtain the greatest value from such an interaction.

Betty J. Kovács, PhD, taught symbolic/mythic language for twenty-five years. She has served as Chair of the Board of Directors of the Jung Society of Claremont, California, and sits on the Academic Advisory Board of Forever Family Foundation. Dr. Kovács is author of Merchants of Light: The Consciousness That Is Changing the World, winner of The Scientific and Medical Network 2019 Book Prize and a Nautilus Silver Award. She has also written The Miracle of Death: There Is Nothing But Life. Her website is www.kamlak.com. Here she explains that consciousness is infinite and that, ultimately, there is no real separation between our waking consciousness, our subconscious mind, and the afterlife. It is all one. However, that realization is difficult to maintain in the face of daily life's necessities. She describes several powerful examples of both archetypal, visionary experiences and after-death communications. They blend into each other. She closes with a riveting prophetic vision.

Paul Chek is a holistic health practitioner, wellness coach, corrective exercise specialist and educator. His journey began when he served on the US Army boxing team. He is the author of How to Eat, Move, and Be Healthy. He is the creator of the Spirit Gym and host of the Spirit Gym with Paul Chek podcast. Paul explores Jesus' teaching to "resist not evil," examining how trauma, consciousness, forgiveness, and spiritual maturity shape our response to conflict rather than retaliation. Drawing on his experience as a therapist, holistic health educator, former Army boxing trainer, and founder of Spirit Gym, Chek argues that true strength comes through healing wounded parts of ourselves instead of becoming what we oppose. Chek touches on psychology, Jung, Rudolf Steiner, nonviolent resistance, forgiveness, mythology, and practical spiritual development as pathways toward greater wisdom. 00:00:00 Introduction 00:02:13 Paul's background and spiritual journey 00:07:19 Responding to evil without becoming it 00:13:02 Trauma, boxing and healing childhood wounds 00:20:05 Spirit Gym and holistic spiritual development 00:27:51 Can evil serve human growth? 00:35:21 Humanity as a school for evolving souls 00:43:01 Religion, consciousness and unconditional love 00:52:07 Nonviolent resistance and forgiveness 01:00:45 Conclusion New Thinking Allowed host, Jeffrey Mishlove, PhD, is author of The Roots of Consciousness, Psi Development Systems, and The PK Man.

David Lorimer is the Programme Director of the Scientific and Medical Network. He has edited several books, including The Spirit of Science: From Experiment to Experience, Thinking Beyond the Brain: A Wider Science of Consciousness, and The Circle of Sacred Dance: Peter Deunov's Paneurythmy. He has also authored a number of books including Survival: Death As a Transition, Resonant Mind: Life Review in the Near-Death Experience, and A Quest for Wisdom: Inspiring Purpose on the Path of Life. In this wide-ranging conversation, rebooted from 2021, he describes the history and work of the Scientific and Medical Network, emphasizing the need for scientists to see beyond the limits of a pure materialist metaphysics.

Christopher Laprath, who works as a professional intuitive, is author of Trestle Creek: Things the Dead Fear. Christopher explores what it means to "see the unseen," describing how intuitive perception can reveal hidden belief systems, inherited patterns, energetic imprints, and unresolved experiences that quietly shape our lives. Through vivid personal stories, he explains how learning to recognize and release these unseen influences can awaken our innate gifts and open new possibilities for healing and transformation. Laprath discusses intuition, consciousness, time, mediumship, and the mysteries that lie beyond ordinary perception. 00:00:00 Introduction 00:02:24 Seeing the unseen 00:09:24 Energetic perception 00:17:59 Knowing beyond time 00:25:48 Releasing old patterns 00:34:07 Letting go 00:42:20 Earthbound spirits 00:50:53 Living with mystery 00:59:08 Opening new possibilities 01:06:09 Conclusion New Thinking Allowed host, Jeffrey Mishlove, PhD, is author of The Roots of Consciousness, Psi Development Systems, and The PK Man.

A three-year-old girl's imaginary friend turned out to be a real man – one who had been dead for fifteen years before she was born.BOOK: “They Told Me My Newborn Died – They Lied: A Global History of Stolen Babies” by Darren Marlar: https://amzn.to/45fNXptEPISODE BLOG PAGE (includes sources): https://weirddarkness.com/heidiwyrickREAD or DOWNLOAD the full transcript of this episode: https://weirddarkness.tiny.us/5a4fwj7tFEATURED STORIES IN THIS EPISODE: Deep in the Balsam Mountains of North Carolina, a shaggy eight-foot creature has been stealing gems and watching women bathe since the early 1900s — and the word used to name him came from a Lewis Carroll poem written the moment after a sleepless night at a dying man's bedside. (The Boojum) *** In 1980, a group of artists in Baltimore took out an ad in a major international magazine — not to sell anything, and not to promote a show. They were sending an invitation. The guests they were hoping to attract just hadn't been born yet. (Krononauts Party) *** A three-year-old girl in rural Georgia started playing with an imaginary friend — and then her family found out he was real, and had been dead for fifteen years. The question that nobody has been able to answer isn't whether she knew him. It's how.

Copyright ©2026, Weird Darkness.Originally aired: August 11, 2026Weird Darkness moves through three cases this episode: a decade-long haunting in rural Georgia that a university parapsychologist wired with scientific instruments, an eight-foot gem-hoarding creature that Appalachian locals have hunted for over a century, and a 1980 Baltimore art stunt that advertised a party for time travelers.It opens with the Wyrick haunting, which began in March of 1989 when three-year-old Heidi Wyrick walked in from the backyard of her family's new home on Swint Loop in Ellerslie, Georgia, and asked to keep swinging with an old man her mother couldn't see. The friend Heidi called Mr. Gordy matched James Gordy, a former caretaker of the property who had died in 1974, down to his silver hair, dark suit, and top hat; a second, wounded visitor she named Con matched Lon Batchelor, a man who lost his hand in a cotton gin accident and died in 1957. Before she could read, Heidi ran straight to Gordy's headstone in a cemetery of hundreds and later picked his face from a blind photo lineup. By 1993 the activity had turned violent, with a faceless dark figure, claw marks appearing on Heidi and her father Andy across consecutive nights, and a ribbon found wound around the throat of infant daughter Jordan, and the family brought in Dr. William Roll, a parapsychologist known from Unsolved Mysteries, who recorded an electromagnetic spike past 40 milligauss, elevated positive ions, and nearby seismic activity, then admitted he could not explain the scratches. Medium Amy Allan, later of The Dead Files, and a second psychic working separately placed the same entities in the same rooms, and the Wyricks finally left the house after Andy and Lisa found Heidi suspended upside down above her bed. The case appears in the Discovery Channel's 2002 film A Haunting in Georgia and the 2013 movie The Haunting in Connecticut 2: Ghosts of Georgia, and in The Veil: The Heidi Wyrick Story, the firsthand account written by Heidi's aunt Joyce.From there the episode climbs into the Balsam Mountains of western North Carolina for the legend of the Boojum, a creature said to stand six to eight feet tall, covered in shaggy gray hair, with a disturbingly human face. According to Haywood County lore, the Boojum hoards the region's real gemstones – North Carolina is the only state that holds all four major precious gems, and the 1,869-carat uncut emerald pulled from the North American Emerald Mine in Hiddenite in 2003 is a matter of record – stashing them in moonshine jugs buried in hidden caves. The first written accounts cluster around the Eagle Nest Hotel, a forty-room hay-fever resort that opened on Eagle Nest Mountain in 1900 and burned in 1918, where guests were warned that the Boojum hid in the mountain laurel to watch women bathing in the forest pools. At the center of the legend is a woman named Annie, who chose to live with him as his wife and whose calls across the ridges are said, in local folk etymology, to have given the word "hootenanny" its name. The segment traces the creature's name back to Lewis Carroll's 1876 nonsense poem The Hunting of the Snark, sets the story against the Cherokee removal along the Trail of Tears and the eviction of Appalachian families to create Great Smoky Mountains National Park, and lands in present-day Waynesville, where Boojum Brewing carries the legend's name.The episode closes with the Krononauts, a group from Baltimore's avant-garde art scene who, in January of 1980, ran an advertisement on page 90 of Artforum magazine inviting time travelers to a party in Baltimore on March 9th, 1982, a date chosen because all nine planets would line up more closely than they had in nearly two hundred years, an alignment popularized by the 1974 book The Jupiter Effect. Hundreds of people came, the New York Times covered it and described the scene as an epidemic of temporary lunacy, and no one produced any evidence of time travel, since the organizers' real aim was the permanent paper trail, built on the logic that a documented invitation could be found and answered from any point in the future. The segment follows the same experiment forward through MIT graduate student Amal Dorai's 2005 Time Traveler Convention and physicist Stephen Hawking's 2009 reception at Gonville and Caius College in Cambridge, where Hawking mailed the invitations only after the party had ended and took the empty room as evidence for his chronology protection conjecture, and it ends with an original song, "Krononauts Party," by Dark Weirdness.LIKE WHAT YOU'RE HEARING?

Chris Niebauer earned his Ph.D in cognitive neuropsychology from the University of Toledo, specializing in left- and right-brain differences. He is the author of The Abstract Mind: How Thinking Became the Source of Suffering—And How to Break Free, the bestselling No Self, No Problem: How Neuropsychology Is Catching Up to Buddhism, and its companion workbook. He taught consciousness, mindfulness, brain lateralization, and artificial intelligence for 22 years as a professor at a Pennsylvania state university. In this conversation, Chris explores the philosophical foundations of his new book, The Abstract Mind, drawing on William James's concept of vicious abstractionism and Alfred North Whitehead's fallacy of misplaced concreteness to examine how thinking itself can become a source of suffering. Building on the insights of No Self, No Problem, he considers the distinction between consciousness and thought, the role of affective neuroscience and embodied development, and why direct experience may offer a path beyond abstraction. Along the way, he reflects on artificial intelligence, contemplative practice, and what it might mean to come home to the immediacy of lived experience. 00:00:00 Introduction 00:04:03 Chris's background 00:10:58 Consciousness vs thinking 00:21:42 Thought, memory, abstraction, and reality 00:29:10 Vicious abstraction and the illusion of ownership 00:39:24 The DSM, mental illness, and consciousness 00:48:38 Affective neuroscience and emotion 00:53:11 Trauma, the nervous system, and safety 01:12:19 The richness of direct experience 01:20:32 Redefining our role in the age of AI 01:24:22 Jung, the unconscious, and awareness 01:26:59 A simple practice for everyday life Producer: Elena McNally Editor: John Hartmann (Recorded on July 11, 2026) New Thinking Allowed Guest Host Leanne Whitney, PhD, is a depth psychologist and transformational coach based in Los Angeles, CA.

Join Rob McConnell as he welcomes Loyd Auerbach, one of the best-known figures in the field of parapsychology, for a fascinating discussion about the important differences between scientific paranormal investigation and modern-day ghost hunting. With decades of experience investigating reports of hauntings, apparitions, psychic phenomena, and other unexplained experiences, Auerbach brings a research-oriented perspective to a field often dominated by sensational television programs and paranormal entertainment. Auerbach examines how parapsychologists approach reports of ghosts and hauntings, emphasizing careful interviews, documentation, environmental factors, psychological considerations, and the elimination of ordinary explanations before considering paranormal possibilities. Unlike many popular ghost-hunting approaches that rely heavily on electronic gadgets, dramatic reactions, and attempts to communicate with presumed spirits, parapsychology seeks to apply structured investigative methods to reported anomalous experiences. During this thought-provoking conversation, Rob and Loyd discuss ghosts, hauntings, apparitions, poltergeists, psychic phenomena, consciousness, EVPs, paranormal equipment, and investigative techniques. They explore what electronic devices can—and cannot—actually demonstrate, why unusual readings should not automatically be considered evidence of a spirit, and how expectation, suggestion, environmental conditions, and human perception can influence paranormal experiences. Whether you're a paranormal investigator, skeptic, believer, or simply fascinated by things that go bump in the night, this episode of The 'X' Zone Radio Show offers an illuminating look at the difference between searching for ghosts and scientifically investigating claims of paranormal activity. Join Rob McConnell and Loyd Auerbach as they separate investigation from entertainment and ask the essential question: What constitutes credible evidence of the paranormal?Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-x-zone-radio-tv-show--1078348/support.Please note that all CANCOM/XZBN radio and/or television shows are Copyright © REL-MAR McConnell Meda Company, Niagara, Ontario, Canada – www.rel-mar.com.

Join Rob McConnell as he welcomes Seika Groves for a fascinating exploration of Science and the Paranormal. For generations, people have reported experiences involving ghosts, psychic phenomena, telepathy, precognition, unexplained energies, and other events that appear to challenge conventional explanations. But can these experiences be investigated scientifically, and where should we draw the line between genuine mystery, personal belief, and phenomena that may eventually have a conventional explanation? Seika examines the intriguing territory where scientific inquiry and paranormal research intersect. From reports of extrasensory perception and unusual consciousness experiences to hauntings and unexplained encounters, the discussion considers how researchers can approach extraordinary claims using observation, experimentation, critical thinking, and an open but skeptical mind. Scientific investigation does not require automatically accepting or rejecting paranormal claims—it requires asking good questions and following the evidence wherever it leads. During this thought-provoking conversation, Rob and Seika explore parapsychology, consciousness, psychic phenomena, ghosts, ESP, telepathy, precognition, and unexplained experiences. They discuss the difficulties researchers face when attempting to reproduce paranormal phenomena under controlled conditions, the importance of separating anecdotal experiences from scientific evidence, and whether our present understanding of physics and consciousness leaves room for discoveries that could change how we perceive reality. Whether you're a believer, a skeptic, or someone fascinated by mysteries that remain unexplained, this episode of The 'X' Zone Radio Show offers an intriguing examination of the continuing debate between science and the paranormal. Join Rob McConnell and Seika Groves as they investigate whether science may someday provide answers to phenomena that currently exist at the boundaries of human understanding.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-x-zone-radio-tv-show--1078348/support.Please note that all CANCOM/XZBN radio and/or television shows are Copyright © REL-MAR McConnell Meda Company, Niagara, Ontario, Canada – www.rel-mar.com.

The CIA handed a retired cop two coordinates off a map—no name, no country. He shut his eyes and read back the secret site's classified code name—from his couch.For 23 years the CIA really trained psychic spies—but when two scientists graded the work, did the data say remote viewing worked, or fall apart?I dig through declassified CIA files from Stanford Research Institute, where physicists Hal Puthoff and Russell Targ trained Pat Price, Ingo Swann, and Joe McMoneagle.I follow a cop who named a secret Soviet base from a map coordinate, an artist who swore Jupiter had a ring, and a viewer who drew a submarine the agency said couldn't exist.Topics (among others):The Believer and the Skeptic: A statistician and the man who exposed Uri Geller graded twenty years of data — and agreed on everything but one word.The Physics of It: Why distance didn't matter, and whether the real answer is precognition.The Honest Reckoning: What survives when you go back and actually read the files.

We had a great chat about parapsychology until my wife tripped over the internet router upstairs. Other than the abrupt ending, this was a great chat, enjoy. 

Anyone who has followed and listened to History Goes Bump for any amount of time knows that we consider ourselves open-minded skeptics when it comes to paranormal activity. Particularly the kind of activity connected to psychics. When science gets involved in the paranormal, it lends it some credibility. Parapsychology became a part of college curriculum and at that same time, scientists and government agencies also started paying attention to psychic phenomenon. Intelligence organizations even tried to use it to spy on other countries. On this episode, we are going to look at one of the main tools used to test psi abilities - Zener Cards - and wind our way through the history of parapsychology and some of the famous names connected to this and operations like Project Stargate. The Moment in Oddity features a 1986 Concept Car.
