Send us a textI'm thrilled to share some incredible insights from our latest episode of the "Endless Possibilities Podcast." This time, I had the honor of speaking with Rev Bill Mcdonald, a Vietnam War veteran, author, spiritual teacher, and motivational speaker with over seven decades of spiritual experience. Trust me, you don't want to miss this one!Here are some of the key takeaways and fascinating ideas we explored:Key Lessons and Ideas:War Hero Witnesses his Life Mission During AfterLife ExperienceMystical Experiences: Reverend Bill Macdonald shared a vivid spiritual journey where he felt his soul travel faster than light through the cosmos, experiencing an expansion into everything. This was a form of conscious expansion, merging with the universe.Life's Mission: Despite his extraordinary experiences, Reverend Bill remains a childlike spirit, living with joy and enthusiasm. His mission is simple yet profound: to teach love, forgiveness, and healing freely around the world.Spiritual Evolution: He believes that love naturally leads to healing—of oneself, society, and the cosmos. Loving oneself is loving the divine within, which extends even to one's enemies, dissolving the illusion of separation.Reincarnation and Consciousness: Reverend Bill is skeptical about traditional views on reincarnation. Instead, he focuses on the universal experience of love as the essence of God.Challenges as Tools for Growth: Life's challenges—illness, suffering, and hardship—are not punishments but tools for spiritual growth and evolution. Karma guides us toward our spiritual path.Free Will and Destiny: While we may have choices about how we navigate life's journey, the ultimate destination—spiritual union with the divine—is inevitable.Curiosities and Personal Stories:Near-Death Experiences: Rev Bill Mcdonald has survived combat in Vietnam with multiple medals and endured three near-death experiences, which have profoundly shaped his spiritual journey.Global Mission: Even in retirement, he remains busier than ever, volunteering as a chaplain, supporting Vietnam veterans with PTSD, and leading his Spiritual Warrior Ministries.Unexpected Support: During a visit to London, he received unexpected support from members of the royal family, highlighting the universal appeal and impact of his mission.Rainbow Body Experience: He shared a transformative experience where he felt like a thin, rainbow-colored film moving faster than the speed of light through the cosmos, realizing it was an expansion of consciousness.

In this episode of Biographers in Conversation, the acclaimed historians Dr Henry Reynolds and Dr Nicholas Clements chat with Dr Gabriella Kelly-Davies about their choices while crafting Tongerlongeter: First Nations Leader and Tasmanian War Hero, the biography of the courageous Indigenous warrior, Tongerlongeter. Here's what you'll discover in this episode: Tongerlongeter's story, like many Indigenous Australian narratives, has largely been erased from mainstream history Why sharing Tongerlongeter's story is crucial and so relevant today Why Henry Reynolds and Nicholas Clements reframed early 19th-century Tasmanian history through a biographical lens Henry and Nicholas's research strategy given that few archival records exist of Indigenous peoples' lives in 19th-century Tasmania How Henry and Nicholas ensured Tongerlongeter's voice and agency were central to the narrative The literary devices Henry and Nicholas employed to craft gripping narrative and create a graphic sense of place How Tongerlongeter challenged traditional narratives of Tasmanian Indigenous history Why deeply researched, revisionist accounts of a life and events are so vital in authentically portraying our nation's history and the individuals who created that history

The true story of Rotorua soldier Captain Roger Dansey is being brought to life in Wellington Opera's performance Mate Ururoa. Written by acclaimed New Zealand composer Dame Gillian Whitehead, it tells the true story of Roger Ingram Te Kepa Dansey, engineer and Maori All Black, who enlisted when Britain declared war on Germany in 1914 and was one of the five hundred strong "Native Contingent". His war story is first about the humiliation faced by Maori soldiers, his heroism at Gallipoli, but then being accused of desertion and sent home in disgrace. Whitehead wrote the libretto in te reo Maori and English for US-based Maori baritone David Tahere, who plays Roger Dansey, and is a member of his whanau. Directed by Sara Brodie, the opera was originally supposed to premiere in 2021 at New York's Carnegie Hall - but this was cancelled due to the pandemic. Instead the world premiere will be in Wellington this weekend. Dame Gillian Whitehead, Sara Brodie and David Tahere are in the Wellington studio.

Every year, on April 25 Australians gather to make a promise. That at the going down of the sun, and in the morning, we will remember them. But memory is a slippery thing, and some stories slide through the cracks, lost to time and history. Among them is Harry Freame – a name that barely registers when we speak of the legend of the Anzacs, even though, in his day, he was celebrated in the Australian press as the “Marvel of Gallipoli.” Hear from Ryan Butta, the author of a new book about the truly amazing Harry Freame. His feats at Gallipoli are only one part of this man's truly incredible story.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Travis Bowman is a seventh-generation descendant of one of America's most remarkable yet overlooked Revolutionary War heroes: Peter Francisco, known as "The Virginia Giant." Recalling stories of his famous ancestor, Bowman shares the incredible tale of Francisco's life: from his mysterious beginnings in the Azores Islands, to his kidnapping by pirates and arrival on Virginia's shores, to becoming a 6'6" towering figure in America's fight for independence. Learn how Francisco, taken in by Patrick Henry's uncle, grew to become such a formidable warrior that George Washington himself had a special six-foot broadsword forged for him. Bowman, author of the historical novel "LUSO," discusses Francisco's legendary feats, including the famous Battle of Guilford Courthouse, where his prowess in combat is commemorated by a monument to this day. Discover how Francisco's legacy lives on through seven monuments, state holidays, and even a 1976 bicentennial stamp. With America's 250th anniversary on the horizon in 2026, Bowman shares plans for a nine-episode miniseries based on his novel that aims to bring this Revolutionary War story to the screen.

Happy Veteran's Day! On D-Day, June 6th, 1944, over 150,000 Allied troops stormed Nazi-defended beaches in northern France in the largest military amphibious assault operation the world had ever seen. D-Day led directly to Allied forces pushing the Nazis back into Germany and winning the war. And D-Day would have never worked without the troop and supply transport boats designed by a colorful boat builder in New Orleans named Andrew Higgins. If you are able to give extra support this holiday season, please consider supporting the annual Bad Magic Giving Tree by purchasing a digital amazon gift card and sending it to givingtree2024@badmagicproductions.comWe are accepting gift cards starting now through November 21st!Merch and more: www.badmagicproductions.com Timesuck Discord! https://discord.gg/tqzH89vWant to join the Cult of the Curious PrivateFacebook Group?

Frederick Rutland—”Rutland of Jutland”—was a war hero, renowned World War I aviator…and a Japanese spy. In the years leading up to Pearl Harbor, Rutland shared information on U.S. aviation and naval developments to the Japanese, desperate for knowledge of U.S. capability. The funny thing was, as Ron Drabkin notes in his book Beverly Hills Spy: The Double-Agent War Hero Who Helped Japan Attack Pearl Harbor (William Morrow, 2024), that most people were pretty sure that the boisterous Rutland was spying for someone. But for a variety of reasons—misplaced priorities, bureaucratic infighting, embarrassment over a British national spying on the U.S., or just bewilderment that someone so open and outgoing could pull off something as secretive as espionage—everyone left utland alone until it was too late. Ronald Drabkin is the author of Beverly Hills Spy and peer-reviewed articles on Japanese espionage. His obsession with espionage history started when he was as a child in Los Angeles, where he vaguely understood that his father had been working for the US military in counterintelligence. Later he discovered that his grandfather had also been in “the business,” and it drove a voyage of discovery into previously classified documents on three continents. His career prior to writing was at early stage startups in the US, where he was an early adopter of Google and Facebook advertising.
