Jon Herold and Zak Paine bring back Mandela effect subject matter expert Josh Reid for round two, picking up a thread they didn't have time to finish last time. Josh steps into the role of true believer while Jon plays skeptic in chief, and the two go back and forth all night with genuine friction and mutual respect. Expect a deep cut Philip K. Dick speech that gets treated as something close to prophecy, a Terence McKenna clip about "novelty theory" that has aged strangely well, and a fresh batch of reality glitches that longtime viewers of the effect will want to weigh in on. It's a smorgasbord of misremembered logos, altered history, and the kind of confident reasoning that makes you second guess your own memory by the end of the hour, all wrapped in the usual studio banter and sponsor breaks.

A major overhaul of Tomorrowland at Disneyland was announced yesterday at D23 Expo. The L.A. County Sheriff’s Department has released photos of people suspected in burgling the same East L.A.

Tara welcomes Canadian author Erin Singer to the podcast and they share a lovely chat about romance and family ties in her first novel, Dangerland!  Erin also divulges that she has seen Carrot Top in suburban Las Vegas, which is, apparently, a thing! https://www.simonandschuster.com/authors/Erin-Singer/234549770 "Nora Ephron meets The Hangover in this screwball romantic comedy and family drama with a big, beating heart, set in the sun-bleached neon of Las Vegas. Kurt Richter has been in love with Eugenie Zepp since he was eight years old. Now he's in his fifties, twice divorced, a father of four. The entire neighborhood is suing him, and he's been estranged from Eugenie for a decade. In other words: perfect timing to declare himself to her. Kurt and Eugenie grew up in Vegas among the glamour and the grit, slot machines in pharmacies, off-Strip tiki bars, all night poker games, shimmering desert heat. They've spent a lifetime orbiting each other, building families and making a beautiful mess of them while trying to decide if what they share is destiny or disaster. Now their adult children are back in town with grudges, heartbreaks, and schemes of their own. As secrets surface and loyalties shift, will this be the right time for Eugenie and Kurt, after everything they've been through? In this delicious, darkly funny, romantic comedy, everyone is looking for love in all the wrong places and gambling on the biggest games in life—but in Dangerland, there's always one more chance to win."

¡Semifinales del Mundial y qué partidazo nos depara estemiércoles! Inglaterra contra Argentina, dos gigantes con estiloscompletamente distintos pero con una rivalidad que siempre nos entrega emociones fuertes. En nuestro campo literario, traemos un duelo de dos obrasmaestras que revolucionaron la literatura y la imaginación humana: Por Inglaterra, la novela fundacional de la ciencia ficción moderna escrita por Mary Shelley: “Frankenstein o el moderno Prometeo”. Por Argentina, la obra maestra de Adolfo Bioy Casares: “Lainvención de Morel”. Dos libros que exploran como pocos las consecuencias decrear vida, la soledad del ser y los límites de la ciencia y la ambición humana. Mary Shelley publica “Frankenstein” en 1818, con apenas 20años, y crea uno de los mitos más poderosos de la cultura universal. La historia del doctor Víctor Frankenstein, que consigue dar vida a un ser ensamblado con partes de cadáveres, es mucho más que una historia de terror. Es una profunda reflexión sobre la responsabilidad científica, el rechazo del diferente, la soledad absoluta y las consecuencias de jugar a ser Dios. La criatura, abandonada y despreciada, se convierte en uno de los personajes más trágicos y humanos de la literatura. Shelley escribió esta obra en plena era romántica y durante el surgimiento de la revolución industrial, anticipando los dilemas éticos que aún hoy nos persiguen con la biotecnología y la inteligencia artificial. Adolfo Bioy Casares, en 1940, publica “La invención deMorel”, una novela breve pero absolutamente genial y perfecta en su construcción. Un fugitivo llega a una isla desierta y descubre que está habitada por extraños personajes que repiten sus acciones una y otra vez. BioyCasares, con una prosa elegante, inteligente y llena de suspense, construye una historia de amor imposible, realidad virtual avant-la-lettre y una reflexión filosófica sobre la inmortalidad, la identidad y la naturaleza de la percepción.Borges la consideraba una de las obras más perfectas de la literatura argentina y uno de los mejores argumentos de la ciencia ficción mundial. Es una novela que influyó a autores como Umberto Eco o Philip K. Dick y que sigue sorprendiendo por su modernidad. Una crea vida orgánica y desata un monstruo que representanuestros peores miedos. La otra inventa una máquina que captura la realidad ycondena a la eternidad. Inglaterra y Argentina. Mary Shelley y Adolfo Bioy Casares. Dos formas brillantes de advertirnos sobre los peligros dela ambición humana: el horror romántico frente a la elegancia intelectual argentina. ¿Quién ganará este duelo literario de Semifinales? ¿La creación trágica y monstruosa de Frankenstein o lainvención genial y perturbadora de Morel? Esto promete ser un partido lleno deinteligencia, suspense y momentos inolvidables.

In "Second Variety," Philip K. Dick explores a post-apocalyptic world where the United Nations has retreated to the moon following early Soviet victories in a global nuclear war. The story follows UN Major Joseph Hendricks as he embarks on a critical mission to meet with Soviet forces, only to uncover the alarming developments of autonomous robots known as “Claws,” which have been left to their own devices in the war-torn landscape. This gripping tale raises timeless questions about the consequences of technology and warfare, making it a poignant reflection on humanity's struggle with its creations.

New Realities with Alan Steinfeld Disclosure, Religion, and the Simulated Multiverse Alan Steinfeld hosts New Realities with Dr. J.J. Hurtak, Dr. Desiree Hurtak, and Rizwan Virk for a two-part conversation on extraterrestrial disclosure, religion, divine intelligence, interdimensional realities, consciousness, simulation theory, the simulated multiverse, AI, free will, soul memory, and humanity's awakening into a larger cosmic identity. Guest Spotlight: Dr. J.J. Hurtak, Dr. Desiree Hurtak, and Rizwan Virk This episode of New Realities, broadcast on August 8, 2026, features host Alan Steinfeld with guests Dr. J.J. Hurtak, Dr. Desiree Hurtak, and Rizwan Virk. Dr. J.J. Hurtak is a theologian, linguist, researcher, and co-author connected with The Keys of Enoch; Dr. Desiree Hurtak, a spiritual researcher and co-presenter; and Rizwan Virk is the author of The Simulation Hypothesis and The Simulated Multiverse. Disclosure, Religion, and the Question of Other Beings Alan opens the program by asking how religious communities should respond to extraterrestrial disclosure and the possibility of other intelligences. He notes that some religious leaders may interpret extraterrestrial beings through familiar categories such as demons, while he argues that the phenomenon may require a wider lens. Dr. J.J. Hurtak responds from his background in theology, linguistics, ancient documents, and comparative religion, while Dr. Desiree Hurtak emphasizes that extraterrestrials may include positive, negative, and neutral beings, much like humanity itself. The opening establishes the episode's central question: how can religion expand without collapsing into fear? Angels, Demons, ETs, and the Expanded Religious Framework The Hurtaks suggest that extraterrestrials should not automatically be confused with God, angels, or demons, but understood as part of a larger field of intelligences. Dr. Desiree says many ETs may exist on levels closer to humanity, while divine, angelic, or demonic realities may be beyond that range. Alan repeatedly argues that people are trying to put an unknown phenomenon into old boxes, while the Hurtaks present a broader cosmology of multiple heavens, divine realities, lower levels, higher light beings, ultra-terrestrials, and various forms of consciousness. Together, they frame disclosure not as the destruction of faith, but as an invitation to expand humanity's idea of creation. Jesus, Light Bodies, Merkabah, and the House of Many Mansions The discussion then turns to whether figures such as Jesus should be understood in extraterrestrial terms. Dr. Desiree rejects the idea of Jesus “riding a flying saucer,” but describes Christ as coming from a higher light reality, entering this world, and returning to a light body. The Hurtaks connect this to their work with the Shroud of Turin, the concept of light-body transformation, Merkabah vehicles, Ezekiel's vision, and the New Testament phrase “house of many mansions.” Their view is that some beings may use craft, while others may operate through vehicles of light, dimensional realities, or higher levels of divine intelligence. Consciousness, Genetics, Cosmic Family, and the Purpose of Contact Alan and the Hurtaks then explore consciousness as the core of the ET question. Dr. J.J. says consciousness is the capacity to deal with all levels of universal intelligence, while Dr. Desiree suggests some beings may need something from humanity, including soul capacity or genetic capacity. The conversation touches on cattle mutilation, cloning, Area 51 references, Dan Burisch, divine-source God code, DNA, panspermia, the Pleiades, Sirius, and humanity's possible cosmic family. Alan frames the larger purpose of contact as awakening humanity to one human family and preparing us to meet other intelligences peacefully rather than through fear or worship. Humanity's Graduation and the Call to Wake Up As the first part concludes, the Hurtaks and Alan emphasize that extraterrestrial disclosure may push humanity into a new anthropology, cosmology, and spiritual maturity. They discuss interdimensionality, remote viewing, dreams, the Book of Enoch, multiple heavens, and humanity's capacity to activate a higher identity. The speakers suggest that extraterrestrials may appear now because of nuclear danger, environmental crisis, or a long-hidden disclosure process, but they stress that the deepest response must be spiritual: humility, discernment, heart awareness, cosmic citizenship, and the recognition that divinity lives within. Alan closes the first section by describing humanity as standing at a threshold of renaissance, expanded belief, and new realities. Rizwan Virk and the Simulation Hypothesis The second part brings in Rizwan Virk for a cross-cultural conversation about simulation theory, ancient spiritual traditions, and the simulated multiverse. Rizwan explains that his thinking began with a virtual-reality ping-pong experience that briefly convinced his body the game was real, leading him to ask how long it would take to build a digital world so convincing that people would forget there was a part of themselves outside it. He compares physical reality to a massively multiplayer video game in which the player exists outside the game and the character inside the game is an avatar. This allows him to connect modern simulation theory with ancient ideas such as Maya, Plato's cave, Buddha's dream, Shakespeare's stage, and Yogananda's film-projector metaphor. Multiverse, AI, Free Will, Forgetfulness, and the Game of Life Rizwan explains five assertions of simulation theory: that the world consists of information, that information is computed over time, that it is rendered for us, that reality may function like a kind of hoax, and that we agreed to participate in it. The discussion expands into the simulated multiverse, quantum branching, Philip K. Dick, the Mandela Effect, retrocausality, delayed-choice experiments, alternate selves, AI, prompt theory, Google Genie, and the possibility that humanity is birthing a new form of life through artificial intelligence. The group also discusses forgetfulness across spiritual traditions, ensoulment, the soul entering the avatar, remembering after death, and the possibility of remembering while still alive. Soul, Service, and the Gift of Life The closing section brings the simulation conversation back to spiritual purpose. The speakers discuss life review, the Book of Life, the scroll of deeds, Archangel Michael, free will, reincarnation or biogenesis, avatars, higher selves, overself awakening, and the idea that life's challenges may function like quests. Rizwan says the point of the “game” is how we treat other people, while Dr. J.J. cautions that life is not merely a game but a gift filled with creativity, joy, compassion, and higher understanding. Alan concludes that realizing we are in a beautiful simulation can help people enjoy life more, serve others and themselves, learn from experience, and recognize both the game and the gift of being alive.

A quiet man spends decades chasing an impossible invention, only to discover that success carries a responsibility far greater than wealth or fame. When the future reveals a disaster that has not happened yet, one ordinary bartender must decide whether he is willing to become the man history needs. Probability by Louis Trimble. That's next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast. Louis Preston Trimble makes his debut on the podcast today and it's probably the only time he will be here. Born in Seattle Washington in 1917 Trimble wrote more than 60 novels, some sci-fi, mostly westerns and mysteries but only one science fiction short story. This is the fourth story we've featured from the April 1954 issue of If, following The Golden Man by Philip K. Dick, Breeder Reaction by Winston Marks, and Way of a Rebel by Walter M. Miller Jr. We will find our story on page 99, Probability by Louis Trimble… Next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast, A young researcher risks his career, his freedom, and his sanity to prove that madness can be reversed with a single injection. But when the only way to demonstrate the cure is from inside a locked ward, he must decide whether to stake his life on the very drug that put him there.

Schon wieder ein Showbiz-Event: Mireille Matheiu wird am Tag der Aufnahme 80 und singt auch auf Finnisch, Japanisch und Russisch. Die drei Fragezeichen haben Hollywood und Geisterwelt im Visier, außerdem landen Werke von James Islington, Gene Roddenberry und Philip K. Dick in Jürgens Regal. Auf selbiges könnte er jetzt auch Justus Jonas aus Klemmbausteinen stellen. Was mit unseren Pink-Floyd-Dioramen passiert ist, probiert Roland noch während der Aufnahmen herauszubekommen – und bekommt prompt Antwort aus Italien. Darüber hinaus freut er sich, dass die neue C-64-Doku von Gracious Films alle Sonderziele beim Crowdfunding erreicht hat. Jürgen hat Blu-rays – immerhin! – von Marvel sowie der zwei „Total Recall“-Teile erstanden. Und baut, als kleine Vorgriff auf den Endspurt dieser Folge, ein Grafikadventure mit KI. Wo Jürgen den Platz für seine Computersammlung findet? Heute müssen die Bilder eines CPC 664 und eines CPC 464 reichen – beide mit Grünmonitor, alle Fotos im geheimen Patreon-Chat. Abteilung Reisegeschichten: Roland berichtet von 250 Jahren USA und Grillabenteuern jenseits der Golden Gate Bridge, Jürgen feiert den Geburtstag seiner Frau und fährt nach Holland. Wir geben ein vorerst letztes Update zur Fußball-WM, Roland tauscht um und kann die Haustür jetzt per Smartphone öffnen. Leider nicht mehr für Sam Neill und Joachim Kerzel, deren Leistungen zu Lebzeiten wir ebenso wie Spieldesign-Pensionär Glen Schofield würdigen. Apropos angekommen: „Assassin’s Creed Black Flag Resynched“ ging bei Roland verspätet vor Anker, Jürgen durfte pünktlich in See stechen. Zeit, unsere Logbücher zu vergleichen. (Aufgenommen am 22. Juli 2026)

Matt Hill is a Philip K. Dick nominated author, having published 6 books over the last 13 years. 'Lamb', 'The Breach', 'Zero Bomb', 'Graft' and 'Folded Man', have all be acclaimed for their prose, innovation and invention... he descibes them as 'getting a little weird'.

When he is offered a second chance, he discovers his punishment has only just begun.It's inspired by Matt's childhood spent in a motor-racing loving family, and we discuss how he's used that for a speculative, noirish thriller. You can hear how he keeps the pace of a car-focused book going across the novel, why he's very open to learning things, and what he's done with a new dedicated writing space.We chat about the challenge of sticking the landing, his big editing change, and why his method and routine has changed over the last few years.Get a copy of the book - uk.bookshop.org/shop/writersroutineSign up to the newsletter - writersroutine.substack.comSupport the show - patreon.com/writersroutineko-fi.com/writersroutine@writerspodwritersroutine.com Hosted on Acast.

Today, we dive into the 'Simulation Theory' and the unsettling reality of the odds of us living in a simulation. We explore the origin of the Simulation Theory, the odds of living in a simulation, and who controls reality. Welcome to Camp!

Abraham Lincoln believed certain dreams appeared before major events in the Civil War. Harriet Tubman trusted visions and divine warnings while leading people out of slavery. William Blake said he saw angels, spirits, and his dead brother. Philip K. Dick believed a pink beam transferred information directly into his mind. W. B. Yeats and his wife produced thousands of pages supposedly dictated by invisible teachers.In this episode of Idiot Mystic, we look at five respected historical figures who believed that dreams, visions, voices, spirits, or unknown intelligences were communicating with them.Were these experiences messages from God, non-human intelligence, the unconscious mind, trauma, intuition, neurological events, or something that sits between all of those explanations?We examine Lincoln's dreams before his assassination, Harriet Tubman's spiritual guidance during her rescue missions, William Blake's populated world of angels and spirits, Philip K. Dick's encounter with the mysterious pink beam, and the automatic writing sessions that shaped some of W. B. Yeats's most important later work.The point is not to force every experience into the same explanation. These people lived in different centuries, followed different beliefs, and encountered very different forms of intelligence. What connects them is that each believed important information had reached them from somewhere beyond their ordinary conscious mind.The stranger question is what happened after they listened.Listen to Idiot Mystic on YouTube and Spotify, and find more strange history, spirituality, psychology, mysticism, paranormal research, and investigations into the unseen at:Website: https://idiotmystic.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/idiotmysticTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@idiotmysticDiscord: https://discord.gg/dXKjhZrZmMShare this episode with someone who has ever wondered where intuition ends and contact begins.Until next time, take care of yourself, please.

We'll delve into the evolution of my astral guest, singer-songwriter, journalist, and author Nikolas Schreck, charting his spiritual journey into the ancient heresy of inner knowing. We'll focus on Schreck's deep embracing of Gnosticism, specifically his belief in the transcendent godhead symbolized by Abraxas. Get ready to learn all about this Gnostic supreme deity, including the views of Basilides, CG Jung, Herman Hesse, Stephan Hoeller, and even Charles Manson. He'll also provide new scholarship on Abraxas and what you can do to experience this entity, if you dare. Lastly, we had fun discussing the esoteric side of Elvis, Bowie, and Philip K. Dick.

Oi, gente, nesse episódio conversamos sobre “Lembramos para você a preço de atacado” (1938), de Philip K. Dick e suas adaptações. Considerando os temas da obra, falamos sobre os conflitos de classe, capitalismo e as distopias e expectativas para um futuro baseado no nosso presente. Além disso, mencionamos a problemática dos avanços tecnológicos que não servem para o bem-estar comum, mas sim para manter status quo. Por fim, falamos sobre Marte e as (não) possibilidades de vida. Quem participou desse episódio foi o William, que também conversou com a gente sobre “O problema dos três corpos”, do Cixin Liu. Livros citados: O homem do castelo alto (1962), de Philip K.

Is anyone really out there, or am I just chatting to a very articulate hallucination?In this episode, we juggle Descartes' lonely thinker, Kant's phenomena vs noumena, and Wittgenstein's ban on private language. If all we ever have are mental snapshots of the world, what right do we have to talk about some “real” thing behind them?On the way we hit: Private language & inner voices – are we talking to others, or just different bits of ourselves? Postmodernism & perspective – if everyone reads the world differently, do we still share a world at all? Ethics after God – without a cosmic referee, how do we avoid moral chaos? Featuring Red Dwarf's “Better Than Life,” a brain that sabotages its own happiness, Philip K. Dick and Robert Heinlein as unlikely comrades, and the comforting thought that if this is your solipsistic universe, you've got some serious explaining to do about Hitler, Trump, and broken-down cars full of kids.Plug in and decide whether “we” are really in this together – or whether “we” is already one person too many.

In this episode of Crazy Wisdom, Stewart Alsop sits down with Javier Rolandi, who works in investor relations and communications, for a wide-ranging conversation that moves from the SpaceX IPO and the trust people place in Elon Musk to Javier's own path through electronics, literature, and linguistics in Argentina. They talk about science fiction as a lens on the present, arguing over Borges versus Cortázar and touching on Philip K. Dick, before turning to Stewart's treasure hunt project and what it means for adults to reclaim a sense of play. The back half of the episode gets into bigger cultural territory: the Peter Pan syndrome as it shows up in Buenos Aires and Silicon Valley, the demographic crisis and why people are hesitant to commit to marriage or kids, the immigrant roots of Argentina's tight-knit communities, and a closing debate about solarpunk versus cyberpunk futures and whether religion still has a role to play in building a more human-centered utopia.Timestamps00:00 – Opening dive into the SpaceX IPO and why people place so much trust in Elon Musk's competence. 05:00 – Javi traces his non-linear path into technology, from electronics school to a lifelong love of science fiction. 10:00 – A close look at Borges, his puzzle-like short stories, and layered literary references. 15:00 – Javi picks Cortázar as his favorite, then Stewart demos his treasure hunt game idea. 20:00 – More treasure hunt details, plus the pelotudo/al pedo language game. 25:00 – Javi's fading interest in building electronics and why adult play still matters. 30:00 – The Peter Pan syndrome, Buenos Aires neighborhoods, and staying stuck in teenage behavior. 35:00 – The demographic crisis, Peter Thiel's arrival, and commitment to marriage and kids. 40:00 – How the internet reshapes connection beyond borders and nations. 45:00 – Solarpunk vs. cyberpunk and Argentina's potential as a utopian model. 50:00 – Argentina's immigrant roots, tribal bonding, and ethnic clubs in Buenos Aires. 55:00 – Closing thoughts on religion, ecumenism, and staying optimistic about humanity.Key InsightsTrust in visionary founders like Elon Musk isn't really about understanding the technical details of something like SpaceX—it's about faith in a person's competence to pull off things that would sound crazy coming from anyone else.Javier's relationship with technology has always been non-linear: an early fascination with electronics gave way to literature and linguistics, and only later did a startup career pull him back toward tech, showing that curiosity doesn't have to follow a straight professional line.Science fiction endures because it's never really about the future—it's a way of examining the decisions being made today and how they'll ripple outward, which is why Javier finds himself circling back to present-day questions after every story or film.Reclaiming play as an adult, whether through treasure hunts or simply being unembarrassed in public, isn't regression—it's a deliberate rebellion against the idea that growing up means becoming serious and losing creativity.The demographic shift away from marriage and kids may be less about capability and more about marketing: people who look unhappy while promoting commitment aren't going to convince anyone that the traditional path is worth choosing.Argentina's strong culture of community and friendship traces back to waves of immigrants who had to lean on each other to survive, a tribal instinct that still shapes how people bond in Buenos Aires today.The tension between solarpunk and cyberpunk visions of the future comes down to whether technology serves human connection or overshadows it, and Javier argues Argentina—with its resources and family-oriented culture—is well positioned to lean toward the more hopeful, human-centered version.

So my guests today are just the epitome of cool. They spearheaded the lounge-style music revival of the 90's. Welcome Ben Daughtrey and Jonathan Palmer of Love Jones to the podcast. The band has just released their fourth album, The Greatest Show and it's definitely the band's sound, distilled into six tracks. Before we dive into how the album came to be after a 15 year hiatus, we talk about how they became a part of Tool lore, opening for the band for the legendary show at the Church of Scientology's Celebrity Center.  Ben & Jonathan also discuss their thoughts on the band's trajectory; what went right, what went wrong, and two breaks of over a decade each. They discuss the birthday party that reunited the band, the writing process for the new album, and the song on the new album that was inspired by both Blondie and Philip K. Dick.

The conversation examines the remarkable language of the Blakeneys, the decaying grandeur of The House, the clash between progress and custom, and the story's haunting conclusion. Is the story a warning about inbreeding and isolation? A critique of resistance to change? Or a meditation on how communities preserve themselves at all costs? Join us as we explore one of Davidson's most memorable and thought-provoking science fiction tales. Keywords: Avram Davidson, The House The Blakeneys Built, Science Fiction, Classic Sci-Fi, Fantasy and Science Fiction, F&SF, Speculative Fiction, Vintage Sci-Fi, Weird Fiction, Literary Science Fiction, Golden Age Science Fiction, Science Fiction Podcast, Book Discussion, BookTube, Short Story Discussion, Gene Wolfe, Jack Vance, Roger Zelazny, Theodore Sturgeon, Cordwainer Smith, Philip K.

Phil and Emily are joined by journalist and author Josephine Riesman to continue their Richard Kelly Reichardt mini-series with the magnificent disaster that is Southland Tales (2006). And there is no better guest for it: Josie wrote the definitive deep-dive on this movie and once spent three hours walking Venice Beach interviewing Richard Kelly himself.Set in an alternate 2008 where nuclear attacks on Texas have tipped America into a surveillance-state apocalypse, Southland Tales unleashes Dwayne Johnson, Sarah Michelle Gellar, Justin Timberlake, and a cast of SNL alumni across a sprawling, end-of-days Los Angeles on the Fourth of July. It premiered at Cannes as an unfinished cut on DVD, got booed into oblivion, made a legendary $374,000 against a $17 million budget, and then quietly became the cult object that fans swear is more true than the reality we actually got.The gang digs into why a movie this incoherent is also this irresistible. Emily makes her case that it is what you would get if Philip K. Dick novelized Robert Altman's Nashville, while Phil counters with "Magnolia with a head injury." Josie reveals what Kelly told her about that surreal Justin Timberlake lip-sync to The Killers, the tie-in graphic novels, the Cannes catastrophe, and why he has a reason for every baffling choice, even the ones that never made the final cut. Plus its eerie kinship with Children of Men and The Handmaid's Tale, and the thin line between satire and prophecy.Misunderstood masterpiece or beautiful trainwreck? On America's 250th birthday, it might be the only movie that fits. This is the way the world ends.Follow the show & guests:Podcast Like It's... — https://www.instagram.com/podcastlikeitsPhil Iscove — https://www.instagram.com/pmiscoveEmily St. James — https://www.instagram.com/emilystjamsJosephine Riesman — [handle?]

On this Black Iron Prison Intercept, the topic couldn't be more appropriate. I'll take you on a deep dive into the life, work, and metaphysical worldview of Philip K. Dick. We'll explore his prophetic fictional themes — surveillance, AI, simulated reality, and corporate control — alongside the mystical visions that shaped his late philosophy. I'll also delve into his self-developed Gnostic cosmology, including concepts like VALIS, the Plasmate, the Black Iron Prison, the Christ-Sophia Syzygy, and his theory of anamnesis as spiritual awakening. We'll conclude by connecting his personal tragedies, literary output, and visionary experiences into a unified portrait of a writer who saw himself as a vessel for restoring ancient Gnostic truth to the modern world.

Exploramos tres películas fundamentales de la ciencia ficción moderna: Blade Runner, The Adjustment Bureau y Minority Report, todas basadas en las inquietantes y visionarias novelas de Philip K. Dick.Hablamos de cómo estas historias imaginan el futuro, el control del destino, la identidad humana y los límites de la realidad, y por qué siguen siendo tan relevantes hoy en día.¿El futuro está escrito o lo estamos construyendo en tiempo real? Estas películas tienen mucho que decir al respecto.

Rob St. Mary and Rob Spencer join Mike to dig into Proyas's tale of John Murdoch (Rufus Sewell), who wakes in a cheap hotel room with no memory, a dead body nearby, and a city that refuses to add up. Detective Bumstead (William Hurt) closes in while the pale, bald Strangers rearrange reality every time the clocks stop — building a world that is simultaneously a locked-room mystery, a Philip K. Dick nightmare, a Kafka story with a superhero ending, and a filmmaker's self-portrait: the Strangers as producers, Dr. Schreber (Kiefer Sutherland) as the compromised writer, and Murdoch as the protagonist who tears through the painted backdrop and seizes the apparatus.The conversation covers the film's screenplay stages and two finished cuts, the studio-mandated voice-over that Proyas spent a decade trying to undo, and Roger Ebert's role as the mechanism of the film's survival. Mike and the Robs also place Dark City within the remarkable 1998–99 cluster of simulated-world films — The Truman Show, The Matrix, eXistenZ, The Thirteenth Floor — and examine what it means that Murdoch's triumphant ending leaves the city still a construct, still running on hidden machinery, with only the god changed.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-projection-booth--5513239/support.Become a supporter of The Projection Booth at http://www.patreon.com/projectionbooth

Today on the 5: Thanks to a YouTube channel titled Liminal Spaces, I read You're All Alone by Fritz Leiber. It's a wonderful novella that feels a lot like a Philip K. Dick story, except without the overwhelming doom and paranoia!

In the back half of The Simulation Hypothesis, Rizwan Virk leaves the gaming and physics foundations behind and heads straight into the deep end: dreams, reincarnation, karma, synchronicity, near-death experiences, UFOs, AI consciousness, and the possibility that ancient mystics were describing the same reality modern technologists are now stumbling toward from the opposite direction. Along the way, he tries to connect Buddhism, Philip K. Dick, quantum mechanics, and modern computing into one giant framework where reality behaves less like dead matter and more like an interactive information system.

Sure, the worlds may be a bleak grayish hellscape, but there's always music!  We look at 1984 (The Orwell book, not the Van Halen album), Brave New World, the collected works of Philip K. Dick, and Frank Zappa and his rock opera Joe's Garage.  Then we get mad at a comic book.

Send us comments, suggestions and ideas here! In this week's episode we are joined once again by Julian Soloninka, better yet known as Julian the Philosopher to discuss his provocative insights into Cyberpunk Metaphysics; which we discuss in its germinal stages under the inspired headspace of Alan Watts, Alduous Huxley and Gregory Bateson. In the first half of the episode we discuss the impact Alan Watts and Gregory Bateson had on cyberpunk and its corresponding philosophies while investigating the role they played as secret agents each with respective ties to three letter agencies before asking ourselves if we were to meet them on Homerian or Platonic footing. In the extended side of the show we continue our discussion with Julian and discuss prominent author, philosopher and psychonaught, Alduous Huxley; his connection to Jiddu Krishnamurti, the Death of Cleopatra and what it all has to do with Philip K.

Frater Eleftheria of Lifting the Lamp enters the mind meld! Are the beings we call "Aliens" actually the same entities contacted by occultists? Are they physical beings, or consciousness based entities? In this episode, I sit down with Frater Eleftheria to explore the vanishing point where high magic and high strangeness meet.

Is reality real… or are we all just characters in the universe's weirdest video game?Join us as we explore the mind-bending ideas of sci-fi legend Philip K. Dick, who believed a mysterious pink beam of information blasted knowledge into his brain in 1974 and revealed a shocking truth: reality might be a simulation. Dick even suspected his classic novel The Man in the High Castle could contain memories from previous versions of the universe.Was he a visionary who glimpsed the code behind reality, or a brilliant writer following one very strange rabbit hole? We dive into Dick's theories about VALIS, the idea that the Roman Empire never ended, déjà vu as timeline glitches, and how modern thinkers like Nick Bostrom are seriously debating whether we might actually be living in a simulation.So, reboot your brain as we ask the ultimate question: Is reality real… or just convincing software?
