77 – Trump 2024: MAGA, or How I Recovered from TDS (Pt. 2)

Hello, and welcome to Entangled! The podcast where we explore the science of consciousness, the true nature of reality, and what it means to be a spiritual being having a human experience.Today I’m joined by my friends Tolon Lijoi and John D, as we react to the 2024 election results. Tolon explains why he is more optimistic than he’s ever been about politics, despite his qualms with Trump’s first administration. John highlights the issues around which Republicans coalesced, including illegal immigration. We discuss the lack of substance in the Democrat’s policy platform, and the widening gap within the American electorate since the COVID pandemic.We consider the hypocrisy of the Russiagate collusion narrative relative to the corruption of Biden’s family in Ukraine, including the suppression of Hunter Biden’s laptop. Next, we consider the failure of the Afghanistan withdraw and the disastrous handling of the Ukraine War. We question what happened to the anti-war left, and why the “my body, my choice” advocates were silent to the coercion used during the mRNA vaccine rollout. We consider the role played by blackmail in this election cycle, and whether there is significant overlap in the Diddy/Epstein lists relative to the elites who endorsed Kamala Harris.Next, we discuss the craziness of the mid-summer election period. Over two weeks, Donald Trump narrowly avoided assassination. Shortly thereafter, his opponent, Joe Biden, was replaced by a candidate, Kamala Harris, in an effective coup led by Democrat party elites & their donors. We then consider the information gap for the election between those on X versus those who get their news from the legacy media.From there, we discuss the development of wokism, victim mentality, and statism. We discuss declining birth rates, the attack on the nuclear family, inflation and the income tax. We get into pardons for Russ Ulbricht, Julian Assange & Edward Snowden and the impact of tariffs. We consider Bitcoin, whether the USD could be strengthened by holding crypto reserves in treasury, and the dangers of CBDCs.Next, we discuss climate change, the control of energy, and the strengths of nuclear power. We talk about the shift in the youth vote to the right, and how this was impacted by the Free Palestine protests on college campuses. We consider how the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) will play out, and the dangerous behaviors exhibited by certain individuals during the pandemic.From there, we discuss the role Libertarians played in the election, how their influence can be seen in the modern Republican party’s platform, and whether the landscape is opening for a third political party. We talk about the issues of corporate consolidation, oligopoly and regulatory capture and discuss how we can fix our food supply. We consider the impact of gentrification and the rise in housing prices. We end the conversation on overcoming “black pilling”, concerns we’d had about civil unrest related to the election, and an optimistic outlook for the future of America.This Outro is titled “DJT for the Win!

Hello, and welcome to Entangled! The podcast where we explore the science of consciousness, the true nature of reality, and what it means to be a spiritual being having a human experience.Today I’m joined by Michael McPadden, author of Genesis to Revelation: Abraham's Promise Finding Christ and Seeing God.  In this conversation, Michael describes his journey from Navy pilot to airline captain, and ultimately to researcher of mythology.Michael discusses various translations of ancient scripture, and we discuss the first three chapters of Genesis. Michael explains “Bereshit bara Elohim”, or when the Gods began to create, and that the name of God reads I am, I become.Michael relates how the 1st chapter of Genesis explains the creation of reality in the same manner as quantum physics, and how several verses describe wave-particle duality. Chapter two continues with “The Myth of the Man and His Life”, or the development of the human psyche.In chapter 3, Michael explains the myth of the serpent and the woman, with the serpent a representation of our unconscious brain.Next, we consider the heroes journey as an outline for the human soul, and how the Bible contains 100s of heroes’ journeys. Next, we consider the journey of Abraham from Sumer to Canaan, the tree of knowledge and the tree of life.Michael then considers the physical manifestation of Christ as the key to unlocking our spiritual selves, escaping the trap of the ego. The New Testament starts with the call to adventure. That call is answered by the early Christians through proelpizo, or an early expectation of Christ. Michael and I discuss how belief is what creates our reality.From there, Michael describes the Book of Revelation as the journey of the human soul. He relates the four horsemen of the Apocalypse as the lust of flesh, lust of eye, and pride of life, in pursuit of the white rider.Next, we discuss the historical life of Christ and the structure of the New Testament. We talk about how to “be like children, how to pray without ceasing” and discuss the two-step process into temptation. We discuss the meaning of life as to be conformed to the state of Christ and to become the men and women we’re meant to be. We conclude the conversation discussing Moses, the Burning Bush, and the events of Exodus.This Outro is titled “Cosmogony: How Existence Comes to Be”.

Hello, and welcome to Entangled! The podcast where we explore the science of consciousness, the true nature of reality, and what it means to be a spiritual being having a human experience.Today I’m joined by Jennifer Spor, Spiritual Advisor, channel & host of Path of the Awakened Heart podcast.  In this conversation, Jennifer describes how she rediscovered herself, transitioning from a successful career in retail to her calling as a spiritual advisor. Jennifer explains how we are souls, eternal students, and that our purpose is to evolve.Jennifer and I discuss the idea that souls choose experiences in this manifestation as we consider ideas of fate vs. destiny. Jennifer describes the Akashic records as the portal to a healing journey in our soul’s library. Jennifer explains how the misuse of free will creates our opportunities for learning, and the need for us to interrupt old patterns.Jennifer explains how the records, the book of life, reflect the collective consciousness and reside in a realm of higher frequency based in truth and love. Next, we discuss how Jennifer developed her channeling skills through meditation. We consider the apocalypse as an ending to a cycle, and that as we enter the age of Aquarius, the rise in collective consciousness will restore the balance of the divine feminine and the sacred masculine.Jennifer explains her deeper call to truth and that we are all walking the path of ascension. We then discuss ideas of surrender vs. control, of spiritual alchemy, and of balance.

Hello, and welcome to Entangled! The podcast where we explore the science of consciousness, the true nature of reality, and what it means to be a spiritual being having a human experience.Today I’m joined by Dr. Danny Knowles, Founder of Network Wellness Center in Boulder, CO.  In this conversation, Danny describes how his health journey led him to the field of chiropractic, the largest, drugless healing modality in the world. We discuss the unity between man the physical and man the spiritual. Danny then explains the difference between NetworkSpinal care and those of other western chiropractors, which look more like physical therapy.Danny explains the spinal gateways tied to our nervous system, that everything is energy, and how their chiropractic care breaks the holding patterns that keep us trapped in ill health. We discuss how to optimize compromised nervous systems in the face of stress, and to increase the bandwidth of frequency we are able to experience.Danny describes how they turn nerves from “suck” to “joy” through a process of discover, transform, awaken and integrate. I ask Danny how he goes about adjusting patients, and Danny explains anchorage points, the spinal cord, and nerve fibers. We discuss how posture Is a window to the structure of your nerve system and that the heart, which has 40,000 neurons, can be considered a second brain.Next, we consider whether the increase in excess deaths in recent years could have resulted from mRNA vaccines.
