- 1:01Speaker 2: On our absolute pleasure. Thank you to Aaron for hooking
- 1:04Speaker 2: us up. Yeh and yes mate, Well you've been on
- 1:09Speaker 2: quite a journey. So can I just one sect? Jimmy,

- 1:15Speaker 2: subscribe or check that you'll subscribe. Please be awesome if
- 1:18Speaker 2: you check your subscribe. If you're not subscribed, maybe you'll
- 1:21Speaker 2: consider subscribing, or perhaps you want to wait and see
- 1:24Speaker 2: what we've talked about. Jimmy. Yeah, life. Fascinating thing, isn't it. Life.
- 1:31Speaker 2: I want to talk about your story, but let's go
- 1:34Speaker 2: in at the deep end. I think the refinement of everything,
- 1:38Speaker 2: almost like the cherry on the cake, is when you
- 1:42Speaker 2: get to grips with something called Christ's consciousness.
- 1:47Speaker 3: Yeah, definitely million, which for friends.
- 1:49Speaker 2: At home, please believe me, is nothing to do with religion.
- 1:55Speaker 2: It's about a metaphorical, physical, and alchemical, a chemical biological
- 2:02Speaker 2: process that takes place within you when you go when
- 2:07Speaker 2: you step out of the matrix, become awake and then
- 2:12Speaker 2: start to view life in terms of energy, vibration and frequency.
- 2:16Speaker 2: And it's a beautiful place to be because it is
- 2:21Speaker 2: when you hear the word paradise, that's what they're talking about.
- 2:25Speaker 2: So I want to explore that with you, with you, Jimmy,
- 2:27Speaker 2: I mean, I can maybe talk about my enlightenment in
- 2:31Speaker 2: a bit, but what what's Christ say to you with.
- 2:36Speaker 3: I think, like I think there's a lot.
- 2:40Speaker 4: There's some suitent in the books, but I think it's
- 2:43Speaker 4: been hijacked by the religion and just you know, like,
- 2:46Speaker 4: do you give us a bits of information in it,
- 2:48Speaker 4: because I think once you, I think, out of the darkness,
- 2:52Speaker 4: come a delight, because it's usually from the darkness where
- 2:56Speaker 4: you where you become enlightened when you're in a really
- 2:59Speaker 4: dark I call it the Kingdom of Heaven, and it's
- 3:03Speaker 4: like the Holy Spirit igniting you and not do religion again.
- 3:08Speaker 4: It was like there was a stillness within me that
- 3:11Speaker 4: I found while I was in the darkness, and then
- 3:14Speaker 4: I completely everything just shredded away, and then I like
- 3:20Speaker 4: the awakening that it was. It was, it was something
- 3:22Speaker 4: profound and I could I don't think you can really
- 3:25Speaker 4: explain it fully unless you've been through it. I called
- 3:28Speaker 4: them the magic glasses. Once you weigh the magic glasses,
- 3:32Speaker 4: when you become clost conscious or God conscious, God consciousness.
- 3:36Speaker 4: To me, it was it was it was like like
- 3:38Speaker 4: you said that the follow it's like as if all
- 3:41Speaker 4: of your DNA is healing, is healed, and then you
- 3:45Speaker 4: you've opened your your your seven checkers start spinning, your
- 3:50Speaker 4: ground as your you know, your your heart, your throat
- 3:53Speaker 4: checker at.
- 3:54Speaker 3: Your dead eye and then your crown wady.
- 3:59Speaker 4: I think the what we were talking about in the
- 4:01Speaker 4: books is where you see with you, with you, it
- 4:03Speaker 4: looks like you go to spaceship a spaceman's helmet on,
- 4:06Speaker 4: but it's enlightenment because the knowledge that's coming in is
- 4:12Speaker 4: like I got them downloads. That's why I write here,
- 4:15Speaker 4: because I'll write, I get download and I'll write. Before
- 4:21Speaker 4: I couldn't, I always felt to all the police. I
- 4:25Speaker 4: didn't be like a fitizan anywhere.
- 4:27Speaker 3: I felt like an odd ball.
- 4:29Speaker 4: I used to get really low, really low, the excessiveness
- 4:35Speaker 4: of you know, instead of bitten in became here to standout.
- 4:39Speaker 4: That's what I tell people. We can come here to me,
- 4:43Speaker 4: come into standouts. You don't want to be a sheep.
- 4:46Speaker 3: You know.
- 4:46Speaker 2: Yeah, you mentioned the scripture and I'm massive for the scripture.
- 4:50Speaker 2: I'm always encouraging people to get this, this dictionary, which
- 4:55Speaker 2: I can't show it on my screen now, but I
- 4:58Speaker 2: can show people the physical copy. This is a decode.
- 5:02Speaker 2: This tells you what is actually actually in scripture? What
- 5:07Speaker 2: does it mean when you hear these crazy stories that
- 5:09Speaker 2: literally make no sense? And by that you learn that
- 5:14Speaker 2: things like so Jesus. And this is an allegory now, folks.
- 5:18Speaker 2: The actual guy I believe was called yes you were.
- 5:21Speaker 2: But the ancient Greeks when they rewrote the Bible in Greek,
- 5:28Speaker 2: they wanted to get in their sun symbolism, and that
- 5:31Speaker 2: the astrological calendar, and so Jesus they've likened to the sun.
- 5:39Speaker 2: The son of Judah is Judah or the line of
- 5:45Speaker 2: Judas stands for yes, stands for enlightenment. And the tribe
- 5:52Speaker 2: of Juba camp at the right hand side. So it's
- 5:55Speaker 2: allegory for.
- 5:58Speaker 4: The believer is empathic side, and that the left is
- 6:02Speaker 4: the I call it the lizard bloon or the monkey
- 6:04Speaker 4: blame where your.
- 6:05Speaker 3: Survive on molds or you.
- 6:07Speaker 4: But your compassion and your empathy and your creativity is
- 6:10Speaker 4: your right side.
- 6:12Speaker 2: Jimmy, can you just sit back a bit because I
- 6:14Speaker 2: think you're the the camera's going out of focus. We
- 6:18Speaker 2: can just see a blur that I think. That's cool, Yes, mate, No,
- 6:21Speaker 2: it's great to be. Isn't it amazing that you can
- 6:24Speaker 2: have these chats with some people? And I mean I
- 6:28Speaker 2: mean this not disparagingly at all, because the process of
- 6:32Speaker 2: enlightenment is understanding we.
- 6:33Speaker 3: Are all one.
- 6:34Speaker 2: There's only one this in the universe, of course, but
- 6:37Speaker 2: it's purely from a fascination point of view. We're probably
- 6:41Speaker 2: liking the you know, the zero point one percent of
- 6:45Speaker 2: the population that have any clue what we're talking about
- 6:49Speaker 2: actually going on, and out of that one percent, those
- 6:53Speaker 2: which will be enlightened is like nor point not not
- 6:55Speaker 2: not not not not not. Because you you've got want
- 7:00Speaker 2: to have eyes to see and ears to hear.
- 7:02Speaker 3: Yeah, of course, I think that's what I say. There
- 7:05Speaker 3: is some there is some. There is some through in
- 7:08Speaker 3: the scriptures, but it's metaphorically. It isn't literal. I think
- 7:12Speaker 3: it's all metaphor. It's like like making the bland man see.
- 7:17Speaker 3: I think that is enlightenment.
- 7:19Speaker 4: I think that is where you take the blinkers off
- 7:21Speaker 4: and then you see see it for what it really
- 7:24Speaker 4: is and you see through the control mechanisms that are
- 7:27Speaker 4: in place from from the cradle to the great.
- 7:30Speaker 2: So let's go the other way. Then, let's take take
- 7:33Speaker 2: your story. You said something interesting in your notes. You
- 7:37Speaker 2: you put it down as growing up in the matrix,
- 7:41Speaker 2: So yeah, can we can we talk a bit about
- 7:44Speaker 2: your journey and how you ended up as a poet
- 7:47Speaker 2: and a comedian and a filmmaker.
- 7:49Speaker 3: Yeah, I was a streak kid. I was a streak kid. Chris.
- 7:54Speaker 4: I'm youngest of eleven. I'm youngest of eleven children from
- 7:57Speaker 4: from the building area in Liverpool Seem and from a
- 8:02Speaker 4: very early age I rebelled because at six, my my
- 8:05Speaker 4: friend got actually got murdered when I was six, and
- 8:07Speaker 4: it was it was.
- 8:10Speaker 3: I I've seen things completely.
- 8:11Speaker 4: Different than what everyone else did, because usually shock or
- 8:16Speaker 4: trauma brings your and I used to just look on
- 8:20Speaker 4: and I used to think it was like a pansama.
- 8:22Speaker 4: I used to just be like like look at me,
- 8:25Speaker 4: at me, siblings and everyone on the way they carry on.
- 8:27Speaker 4: I think it's not really used to do Mammy like.
- 8:30Speaker 3: Compunctioning judy or you know.
- 8:32Speaker 4: Way you could see it was like a simulation from
- 8:35Speaker 4: a very early age where it is it's just a
- 8:38Speaker 4: big move and ebb and floating. But where you you know,
- 8:42Speaker 4: where you don't you you can't really comprehend what is
- 8:47Speaker 4: what it is you know. But I think like as
- 8:51Speaker 4: you as you grow, as you grown up as a child,
- 8:54Speaker 4: you know the scrapes you get in and you know
- 8:57Speaker 4: the I was always I almost fably get like not
- 9:02Speaker 4: yet out of cash, because I just didn't feel like
- 9:06Speaker 4: oufited into the demet because I don't know, I think
- 9:10Speaker 4: I think I think indulging in substances as well, you know,
- 9:18Speaker 4: herbs and things like that from a very early age.
- 9:23Speaker 2: So let's just just peel back there. Because often people
- 9:26Speaker 2: were on the podcast they mentioned some apps at a
- 9:30Speaker 2: catastrophic event as though like it's completely normal because to
- 9:33Speaker 2: them they've normalized it. But your best you you're a
- 9:38Speaker 2: child and one of your best friends gets murdered. Did
- 9:41Speaker 2: you say, yeah, I got murdered.
- 9:43Speaker 3: I was sick.
- 9:44Speaker 2: How how could you give us some context what happened?
- 9:48Speaker 4: Yeah, he got taken by some people on the done
- 9:52Speaker 4: stuff to you and and killed them. And they and
- 9:55Speaker 4: the found them, they found them, they found them in
- 9:58Speaker 4: a bin. So that was I sort of rebelled after that.
- 10:04Speaker 2: Is that? Sorry to interrupt, but that sounds uncannily familiar
- 10:08Speaker 2: with the Jamie Boulger thing, doesn't it? Yeah?
- 10:11Speaker 3: Very similar, Yeah, very very similar.
- 10:13Speaker 2: Can we just investigate there because there was absolute public
- 10:19Speaker 2: outrage and hatred for them two lads when when that
- 10:24Speaker 2: little tacker they basically sorry, friends at home, if you're
- 10:27Speaker 2: feeling sensitive, today you might want to give this one
- 10:30Speaker 2: a miss, but you know, they tortured the kid to death,
- 10:35Speaker 2: did horrible things.
- 10:36Speaker 3: To well, this was this wasn't children that it was,
- 10:40Speaker 3: it was adult. It was it was it was an adult.
- 10:44Speaker 3: To talk about.
- 10:45Speaker 2: The link I was trying to get at, Jimmy, is
- 10:47Speaker 2: that for them to have done what they did to Jamie,
- 10:53Speaker 2: what the hell were they going through? I'm not trying
- 10:55Speaker 2: to justify it.
- 10:58Speaker 3: What sort of upbring them with the they have, but
- 11:01Speaker 3: I've heard stuff like they used to.
- 11:03Speaker 4: They told your animals and little animals, know, like game
- 11:07Speaker 4: pets and things like that.
- 11:09Speaker 3: So god knows what he was seeing at all.
- 11:11Speaker 2: And your friend was adults that kidnapped in Yeah, he.
- 11:15Speaker 4: Took him my name, it was there was you know,
- 11:18Speaker 4: I've tried to I've tried to research. I've tried to
- 11:21Speaker 4: research and find because I did the poem.
- 11:25Speaker 3: How I affected me for years, like addiction and mental
- 11:28Speaker 3: health and things like that.
- 11:30Speaker 4: Because but it wasn't until like a therapy and and
- 11:33Speaker 4: things like that, and that I realized that that was
- 11:35Speaker 4: where all the the abauty, the substance abuse, and that
- 11:39Speaker 4: you know, like the darkness might may have have came from.
- 11:43Speaker 3: But yeah, I've lost I tried to get some information
- 11:51Speaker 3: on it, and there was no information whatsoever on it.
- 11:54Speaker 3: Nothing nothing.
- 11:56Speaker 2: Let's take it one step at a time, brother, because
- 11:58Speaker 2: I think our audience has really want to hear your
- 12:01Speaker 2: story and at the moment we're kind of stepping over
- 12:03Speaker 2: here and not really you know, so this is horrific.
- 12:08Speaker 2: Did you receive what was this kind of some satanic thing?
- 12:12Speaker 2: Were they? Were they?
- 12:13Speaker 4: Just?
- 12:13Speaker 3: Yeah? I think so. I think it was something like that,
- 12:16Speaker 3: like a Peter of billion. It was definitely do a billion.
- 12:19Speaker 2: And okay like that. Yeah, did you get any you
- 12:23Speaker 2: or your friends get offered any therapy for that?
- 12:26Speaker 4: No?
- 12:27Speaker 3: No. I remember going.
- 12:28Speaker 4: Into the school and actually getting punched in the back
- 12:31Speaker 4: of the air by by one of the nuns. Then
- 12:34Speaker 4: a couple of days later, and I remember looking at
- 12:37Speaker 4: and thinking, do you don't know what happened to that?
- 12:39Speaker 4: Like you just happens on my mates and like he
- 12:42Speaker 4: went through a different SCHOOLI I went to the cat
- 12:45Speaker 4: Scully into the more pleasant school Dan that old but
- 12:51Speaker 4: just absolutely horrendous.
- 12:55Speaker 3: And I wasn't still in the in the fifties that
- 12:58Speaker 3: I got I had telepen so do.
- 13:01Speaker 4: It and writing I didn't write, and I did a
- 13:04Speaker 4: poem of and I saw that released it and it
- 13:07Speaker 4: was it was a big release, you know, sort of
- 13:11Speaker 4: like laying them to dress.
- 13:12Speaker 2: So you mentioned nuns. You mentioned complex trauma because she's
- 13:17Speaker 2: just smacking you around the head whilst you're already traumatized.
- 13:21Speaker 2: This is that you can see here, friends at can
- 13:23Speaker 2: see where the layers of trauma, yeah, come in. And
- 13:27Speaker 2: especially back then when we were kids, stuff, some stuff
- 13:31Speaker 2: went on that kids these days wouldn't believe was allowed
- 13:35Speaker 2: to happen.
- 13:37Speaker 4: I've never never seen any any any any sexual abuse,
- 13:41Speaker 4: a lot of physical abuse because you used to just
- 13:44Speaker 4: be able to beat you up then, didn't it and.
- 13:47Speaker 3: No one you know, well we didn't know it was.
- 13:50Speaker 2: We didn't know what it was. Then when we all
- 13:51Speaker 2: become adults. The girls that want one of my primary
- 13:54Speaker 2: schools because I went to fight. I went to six
- 13:57Speaker 2: schools before the age of eleven. Gives people an idea
- 14:01Speaker 2: of my, my, my childhood a little bit like no, my,
- 14:06Speaker 2: well my, you know, my parents couldn't get it together
- 14:09Speaker 2: and and as a result, we we we had a
- 14:12Speaker 2: bit of a turbulent experience as kids. But hey, ho
- 14:16Speaker 2: not not complaint but it was just funny. When all
- 14:20Speaker 2: the girls got older, they and they started networking, probably
- 14:24Speaker 2: through Facebook. They were all like, did so did that
- 14:26Speaker 2: teacher used to pick you up put you on top
- 14:29Speaker 2: of the cupboard And everyone was like yeah, and did
- 14:32Speaker 2: he like have a good feel as he was, Yeah,
- 14:35Speaker 2: it's funny, do you know what I mean? And and
- 14:37Speaker 2: and then you realize, oh bloody, how that you know?
- 14:39Speaker 2: It was there? We just didn't understand it.
- 14:41Speaker 3: Yeah, you didn't didn't understand it.
- 14:43Speaker 4: Yeah, I had my family. I was actually I had
- 14:48Speaker 4: a really loving family. My mom and dad were amazing.
- 14:52Speaker 4: But did all the people didn't really understand what you
- 14:56Speaker 4: know about traumal? Back then, it wasn't really talk.
- 14:59Speaker 2: About, no, not at all. When I went through the mill, like,
- 15:06Speaker 2: I didn't know what depression. No one had ever said.
- 15:10Speaker 2: I didn't know what anxiety. Look like, what's this weird
- 15:13Speaker 2: thing that I'm feeling? What they're do in Australia now, Jimmy,
- 15:17Speaker 2: they've got this point system where the combined services so
- 15:22Speaker 2: social work, school, you know, police, whatever. They're looking at
- 15:26Speaker 2: these children as they come through the system and they're saying, right,
- 15:30Speaker 2: you get a point for this, you get a point
- 15:32Speaker 2: for that. They call it a traffic something. I think
- 15:34Speaker 2: it's like traffic light system and they mark them on
- 15:38Speaker 2: so absent father boom you you know, you get ten
- 15:42Speaker 2: points immediately, Mother got an how you know, addicted to alcohol.
- 15:48Speaker 2: That's you're a twenty pointer. Now social deprivation, you know,
- 15:54Speaker 2: living in squalor, you're a thirty pointer. And and you
- 15:57Speaker 2: know if you make that ten, even if you make
- 16:00Speaker 2: five points, you're already at risk of PTSD in later.
- 16:04Speaker 2: You know, you're you're a traumatized individual. And as such,
- 16:09Speaker 2: the idea is in Australia they can then put services
- 16:12Speaker 2: in place to support you through you know, through your
- 16:15Speaker 2: your journey. But when we were kids, just like none
- 16:18Speaker 2: of the they just used to dish dish mother's out
- 16:21Speaker 2: value and didn't they.
- 16:22Speaker 4: Yeah, mother's little helper, little helper. I I also witnessed
- 16:30Speaker 4: my sister getting getting beaten up. Witness with witness my
- 16:35Speaker 4: sister getting beaten on. One was all twelve, and that
- 16:37Speaker 4: added really, really really damas in effect on me as well,
- 16:41Speaker 4: because I come from you know, with someone on your family,
- 16:47Speaker 4: you went be hand and under men.
- 16:50Speaker 3: You know. Life of the Life told me five, but
- 16:54Speaker 3: I have five.
- 16:55Speaker 4: My brothers with five add case brothers and and I
- 16:58Speaker 4: couldn't believe, I think, did you they hadn't gone down?
- 17:01Speaker 3: But I understand now that you know man them. I
- 17:04Speaker 3: understood later on that the man of wife.
- 17:06Speaker 4: And you know it's a complex, you know, complex situation
- 17:11Speaker 4: because you obviously loved them and then you know you
- 17:14Speaker 4: interfere with that you you know, you can put someone
- 17:18Speaker 4: off and then adding the more vulnerable when they cuts
- 17:21Speaker 4: off from the family instead of the family being able
- 17:23Speaker 4: to go down and check them.
- 17:26Speaker 3: Yeah, but it all, it.
- 17:27Speaker 4: All adds to the you know, like you said before
- 17:31Speaker 4: that that I call it depressed when when I when
- 17:34Speaker 4: I went into it, because it was it was like
- 17:37Speaker 4: as if I call it the meats the bodies of
- 17:40Speaker 4: meat suit, because you're just you know, with spirits after
- 17:43Speaker 4: the meat too. So this is my okay analysis of
- 17:49Speaker 4: the metrix. And I got to your point where it
- 17:55Speaker 4: like the meat suits, you just put it down.
- 17:58Speaker 2: But which jumping forward again, mate, I got so could
- 18:05Speaker 2: you apply like I couldn't apply myself at school. All
- 18:07Speaker 2: I could do was look out the window and fantasized
- 18:12Speaker 2: about the eventures I was going to have when I
- 18:13Speaker 2: was going to I was going to go all the
- 18:15Speaker 2: way around the world. I was going to you know,
- 18:17Speaker 2: work in travel through Africa that I couldn't apply myself because.
- 18:23Speaker 4: I felt like it was you know what, I felt
- 18:25Speaker 4: like they were speaking like an earn a foreign language
- 18:27Speaker 4: to me. I just I knew what they were saying,
- 18:30Speaker 4: but I didn't really want to learn it. Deep down,
- 18:33Speaker 4: I inately knew that it was bs iknew that was
- 18:36Speaker 4: nonsense that they were teaching me. Taught me to count
- 18:39Speaker 4: and and by reading blade. But I was sagging school
- 18:43Speaker 4: from eight years of age. Did you know what sagon
- 18:45Speaker 4: school means and being like not you know, skipping school. Yeah,
- 18:49Speaker 4: I was skipping school from eight years of age and
- 18:52Speaker 4: just going and doing my own things with me pals
- 18:55Speaker 4: and that sort of from that was from junior school,
- 18:59Speaker 4: got caught couple of times, got a couple of beatings
- 19:02Speaker 4: because you used to get used to beat yeah, as
- 19:04Speaker 4: you know these days. And then once a gone to
- 19:07Speaker 4: senior school, I was just I just wanted to go
- 19:10Speaker 4: and play. I used to go to woods. We lived
- 19:12Speaker 4: like by woods, so that was my playground. I just
- 19:16Speaker 4: was loved being a native being in the woods and

- 19:47Speaker 4: lived in play small Crocky Croxters, which is quite well known.
- 19:52Speaker 4: We moved from town after that happened. We moved up
- 19:54Speaker 4: to I thought we'd moved to Wales because there was
- 19:57Speaker 4: there was greenery and trees, but it was like it
- 19:59Speaker 4: wasn't it was. It was like it was like to
- 20:01Speaker 4: go to the bad and the ugly when when you
- 20:03Speaker 4: come out on the steat because there's like families. It
- 20:06Speaker 4: was like a housing project basically, and each family had
- 20:10Speaker 4: like fifteen kids, so you can imagine the fights there was.
- 20:16Speaker 4: There was like a lot lot There was a lot
- 20:17Speaker 4: of best fights and you know gang fights and things
- 20:20Speaker 4: like that. But I I was quite funny as a kid.
- 20:25Speaker 4: I had a good sense of hum and I used
- 20:28Speaker 4: to do little impressions and people's always seemed to warm
- 20:33Speaker 4: to me. And I had a couple of tough guy
- 20:35Speaker 4: pulls as well, who they were still friends to this
- 20:39Speaker 4: day who sort of looked out for them as well.
- 20:43Speaker 4: And I have five older brothers. They were.
- 20:47Speaker 2: Yeah, got yeah. So did you pass many exams when
- 20:51Speaker 2: you left school?
- 20:53Speaker 3: No, we're not no qualifications whatsoever. I left when I
- 20:55Speaker 3: was thirteen.
- 20:56Speaker 4: I left over. I actually left over. It was because
- 20:59Speaker 4: of the over the bat G decided to give me
- 21:01Speaker 4: the b c G and I said, well, what is it?
- 21:05Speaker 4: And then they said to him it was co for you.

- 21:20Speaker 4: There was an altercation and I basically told the f
- 21:23Speaker 4: off and my house and I've never even go back
- 21:27Speaker 4: after that.
- 21:28Speaker 2: Yes, and so what was your first employment? What did
- 21:31Speaker 2: you do when you left school?
- 21:34Speaker 4: I used to do I was on the building game
- 21:38Speaker 4: on the building, and the building was a bricklayer, and
- 21:43Speaker 4: I was on career. I was an on carrier, but
- 21:45Speaker 4: I was I was, I was very I was. I
- 21:48Speaker 4: was involved in street stuff as well, So it was
- 21:51Speaker 4: sort of what I call arch your craft, Rice, can
- 21:55Speaker 4: you explain that I was you know, I used to
- 21:58Speaker 4: get a lot of you know, like a lot of
- 22:01Speaker 4: handle a lot of goods, you know.
- 22:03Speaker 2: Like stolen goods, stolen good Yeah, I got yeah, you know,
- 22:09Speaker 2: but I got a toaster at the moment, any chance
- 22:12Speaker 2: of you And yeah, this is fast fascinating mate. And
- 22:22Speaker 2: so you're kind of performing to a public has already
- 22:26Speaker 2: begun because I'm guessing you're getting a bit of attention
- 22:29Speaker 2: from telling you know, making people laugh, and it's taking
- 22:34Speaker 2: your mind off your underlying trauma. So what when did
- 22:42Speaker 2: you progress onto any other sort of career of significance
- 22:46Speaker 2: that we need to know about? Or shall to just
- 22:49Speaker 2: talk about your awakening from the matrix?
- 22:51Speaker 3: Yeah?
- 22:52Speaker 4: Yeah, because I didn't really like I say, I didn't
- 22:55Speaker 4: really feel it. I just sort of floated through life,
- 22:58Speaker 4: you know. And then.
- 23:03Speaker 3: Like I say, I used to use a lot of
- 23:06Speaker 3: herbs and things like that.
- 23:07Speaker 2: And when wait, sorry, when did the if we can say,
- 23:11Speaker 2: experimenting with substances, when that started whilst in school?
- 23:17Speaker 3: Both fifteen sixteen?
- 23:18Speaker 2: And what what were your preferred potions? And when did
- 23:21Speaker 2: when did you start drinking.
- 23:26Speaker 3: Cannabis?
- 23:29Speaker 2: Yeah, you can say that that's that's okay.
- 23:32Speaker 4: Mushrooms and then and then speed and and then it
- 23:36Speaker 4: progressed onto a narcotics then later on down the line.
- 23:41Speaker 4: But fuelds with alcohol not a good concoction. But I
- 23:45Speaker 4: wasn't really a big drinker because in the early days.
- 23:49Speaker 4: It was it was later on and like that I
- 23:52Speaker 4: started thinking heavy Dad that passed away. But it's I
- 23:59Speaker 4: think when you when you're in that eye of the storm,
- 24:02Speaker 4: you you have to have either light ball moments or
- 24:06Speaker 4: you have to hit the wall one of the two.
- 24:08Speaker 4: If you don't have one of them two things, you
- 24:11Speaker 4: usually people just stiff away and you know, into into
- 24:15Speaker 4: the down with spiral, which is really difficult to get out.
- 24:19Speaker 2: Yeah, I've had one, two, three, three like really good mates.
- 24:26Speaker 2: To one of them, i'd say, you know a best mate,
- 24:30Speaker 2: Although you can have a few best mates, can't you?
- 24:33Speaker 2: Three three of them I've watched what watched well, two
- 24:36Speaker 2: of them I watched drink themselves to death. One died
- 24:39Speaker 2: fairly recently. I didn't realize the extent I hadn't seen
- 24:43Speaker 2: him because of all this bloody medical nonsense. I hadn't
- 24:47Speaker 2: seen him for a couple of years in that and
- 24:48Speaker 2: I only sort of learned after the fact. What I
- 24:54Speaker 2: mean is we used to we used to all go
- 24:56Speaker 2: out together quite quite a lot. That was our sort
- 24:59Speaker 2: of connection, you know, because of all the nonsense that stopped.
- 25:02Speaker 2: Then I kind of developed I found it. I found
- 25:06Speaker 2: it an interesting in spirit variance, being pretty much like
- 25:11Speaker 2: the only person out of most people I knew that
- 25:14Speaker 2: understood what was going on then that everyone else I
- 25:17Speaker 2: knew just what they just went along with it, and
- 25:20Speaker 2: and that did start making me question, then, so who
- 25:24Speaker 2: do I really want to spend my time with?
- 25:26Speaker 3: Do I want?
- 25:27Speaker 4: I know exactly what you mean, because I just took
- 25:30Speaker 4: me away from everyone. I just I didn't really want
- 25:32Speaker 4: to be around them.
- 25:33Speaker 3: It was nothing to do with that. They're not like,
- 25:37Speaker 3: you know, all that nonsense. I you know that consulting.
- 25:41Speaker 3: It was.
- 25:42Speaker 4: It was more to what they were saying, because they
- 25:44Speaker 4: were they were giving me anxiety.
- 25:47Speaker 3: And I don't gone through I don'tlady, dealt with all
- 25:50Speaker 3: my stuff. I've gone through.
- 25:52Speaker 4: I've gone through that awakening ten years before twenty twelve,
- 25:56Speaker 4: twenty fourteen. But I was half expecting, I'll be honest
- 26:00Speaker 4: with you, I was half expecting, you know, the way
- 26:03Speaker 4: I know. We you know, once you can, once you see,
- 26:06Speaker 4: you can't unsee. But I didn't expect him to come
- 26:09Speaker 4: like that. I didn't think people would be that naive.
- 26:12Speaker 2: Yeah I did, because I remember how naive I was
- 26:15Speaker 2: when I was in the matrix. It was yeah, yeah,
- 26:18Speaker 2: I was a young soldier, young marine kind of.
- 26:22Speaker 4: Well you you must have you must have seen some
- 26:24Speaker 4: around the stuff. My father was actually in the was
- 26:27Speaker 4: in Casino, Wow wedad. We got wounded in Casino. And
- 26:32Speaker 4: he was a heavy drink and he he used to
- 26:35Speaker 4: relived that every night when he was when he was thrown,
- 26:38Speaker 4: I could hair him crying and you know, like sometimes
- 26:41Speaker 4: he'd make hair the plain.
- 26:42Speaker 3: Noises he had, he had what he had a wound because.
- 26:44Speaker 4: Of right across right on his back machine gun fire
- 26:48Speaker 4: like it looked like a big bay.
- 26:51Speaker 3: But it looked like he'd been bas or he's had
- 26:54Speaker 3: he'd been he had boughty last years or something. It was.
- 26:57Speaker 3: It was an amazing, amazing, amazing.
- 26:59Speaker 4: Man that a You see, he was in Casino, and
- 27:02Speaker 4: you know, when I look back now, the throne and
- 27:05Speaker 4: he was such a lovely gentle man. And I think
- 27:08Speaker 4: why he had so many children was because of all
- 27:11Speaker 4: the death that I've seen, and he despised. He despised war.
- 27:15Speaker 4: He despised anything to do bit war or the army
- 27:18Speaker 4: or anything like that.
- 27:19Speaker 3: And I think.
- 27:20Speaker 4: You're seeing that. I think you're seeing that because I
- 27:23Speaker 4: have my mother always sought me and my dad timing
- 27:30Speaker 4: people better than when you first met them, never looked
- 27:34Speaker 4: down on anyone unless you're helping them up, and always
- 27:37Speaker 4: be kind.
- 27:38Speaker 3: And I always started to live my life like that,
- 27:40Speaker 3: you know.
- 27:41Speaker 4: So he always had good I always had good ethics,
- 27:43Speaker 4: and I always had you know them models, so to speak.
- 27:47Speaker 4: You know. But I think when I think when it's sold,
- 27:52Speaker 4: when the perception that you're going to see the world
- 27:55Speaker 4: and all this nonsense, we be really and actually you're
- 27:59Speaker 4: going to be kill him, you're going to be made
- 28:01Speaker 4: to them people, you know, going and doing around the stuff.
- 28:05Speaker 4: You know me, I know my dad when he was dunk,
- 28:08Speaker 4: he would sometimes talk about that. I used to think,
- 28:10Speaker 4: Oh my god, imagine, like you know, we midad the
- 28:16Speaker 4: other a long bainess. I remember him telling me a
- 28:19Speaker 4: story that him and this cocking and guy they were
- 28:22Speaker 4: in they've been getting shelved for about three days and
- 28:25Speaker 4: he was in the slit trench and he popped his
- 28:27Speaker 4: head up. And as he popped his head up, but
- 28:29Speaker 4: game and popped his head up, and my dad obviously,
- 28:33Speaker 4: like you know, on loaded into him.
- 28:36Speaker 3: But he had a he had a long bane at me. Dad.
- 28:38Speaker 3: He was like the he used to feel.
- 28:39Speaker 4: He had like a baseball war rifle with a long bayinness.
- 28:44Speaker 4: So he was like the man he used to feel
- 28:46Speaker 4: for the man's I used to think, that's why, why
- 28:48Speaker 4: why would you do that?
- 28:49Speaker 3: You know?
- 28:50Speaker 4: And and his mate said, this is one of this
- 28:54Speaker 4: holmes of meat. Put your band in him. Said you
- 28:56Speaker 4: can't leave him like that said. He was just lying
- 28:58Speaker 4: there chattering and he had to paint. And I would think,
- 29:01Speaker 4: I imagine doing that when you're like nineteen twenty years
- 29:04Speaker 4: of age.
- 29:05Speaker 3: It's just it's unthinkable, isn't it. You know.
- 29:08Speaker 4: So the trauma that you know, like you said, I
- 29:12Speaker 4: think that a lot of trauma is generational as well.
- 29:15Speaker 4: It's it's passed down hand and down to condition and
- 29:18Speaker 4: stuff like that.
- 29:20Speaker 2: Absolutely, I mean, you say your dad was a lovely man,
- 29:23Speaker 2: and absolutely no doubt of that. He's still a traumatized individual.
- 29:28Speaker 2: And there'll be behaviors there that have affected you affected
- 29:33Speaker 2: you may.
- 29:34Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 29:34Speaker 2: Yeah, the the video on your YouTube Family Matters is
- 29:39Speaker 2: that your that's not your dad in there, is it?
- 29:41Speaker 4: Yeah, that's my dad, my mom, my grandmother. It goes
- 29:44Speaker 4: back to nineteen fifty nine.
- 29:47Speaker 3: I made that.
- 29:47Speaker 4: It took me four years to make that. The some
- 29:50Speaker 4: of my post has three poems in there, and there's
- 29:53Speaker 4: there's interviews with me with my mom and my dad,
- 29:57Speaker 4: my grandmother's in it. There's actually a call flags and
- 30:00Speaker 4: there from nineteen sixty three that we did that we
- 30:04Speaker 4: got I got. I got my hands on it to
- 30:09Speaker 4: some Dutch people who we knew because we.
- 30:12Speaker 3: Wanted to go.
- 30:13Speaker 4: We wanted we applied to sell the black to Time
- 30:16Speaker 4: find it, but they wanted ten thousand pounds. So Jerome,
- 30:19Speaker 4: this Dutch guy was doing a documentary and Tony Blair
- 30:23Speaker 4: was getting elected and he went into the it TB
- 30:28Speaker 4: archives and he basically shoplifted the copy for us, so
- 30:37Speaker 4: selling black ones at ten grand so he you know,
- 30:40Speaker 4: he said he was borrowing it but research purposes.
- 30:43Speaker 3: And then he just made the copy so.
- 30:47Speaker 2: Crazy.
- 30:47Speaker 3: It was hilarious myself.
- 30:49Speaker 4: So he had it goes from there to nineteen and
- 30:52Speaker 4: then to the nineties and then to modern day, like
- 30:54Speaker 4: my grandchildren and my children.
- 30:56Speaker 2: Yes, everyone lighting up their tabs having there some blessed
- 31:01Speaker 2: white white bleach spread.
- 31:03Speaker 3: Yeah, we call it hairy bread.
- 31:07Speaker 4: Me and his daughters called it hairy bread because my
- 31:10Speaker 4: daughter bread something this horse. The only one I eat
- 31:13Speaker 4: is a white sour though, is the white sour? Have
- 31:16Speaker 4: I used anything else? My belly just got explode.
- 31:22Speaker 2: Got a bit of a wheat intolerance maybe, yeah, I
- 31:24Speaker 2: think so. Yeah, yeah, definitely, you're trying to lay off
- 31:28Speaker 2: carbohydrate somewhere. It's full of glue, cose, it's yeah, blue,
- 31:32Speaker 2: it's not healthy.
- 31:34Speaker 3: I was doing faster and neked this and it was
- 31:36Speaker 3: it was helping me. It was helping me a lot.
- 31:38Speaker 4: But I haven't been doing a love later, been a
- 31:42Speaker 4: little bit of a I've been a little bit excessive
- 31:45Speaker 4: with the foods. But it was sort of about Aaron before,
- 31:49Speaker 4: like did you you you were you're aware of the
- 31:55Speaker 4: Clive Freeman.
- 31:56Speaker 3: Case, aren't you?
- 31:57Speaker 2: Absolutely?
- 31:57Speaker 3: Yeah?
- 31:58Speaker 4: Yeah, that's I think that's that's absolutely discussed on what's
- 32:01Speaker 4: going on there that I actually did a poem I did.
- 32:04Speaker 3: I wrote a poem for the for the for the
- 32:06Speaker 3: for the campaign.
- 32:08Speaker 4: But it looks like he's satinly hell, isn't he's you know,
- 32:13Speaker 4: he's not got long left and do you want to
- 32:16Speaker 4: explain for people who he is? So they know dream
- 32:19Speaker 4: and is the longest saving Well, he's maintained as innocent
- 32:24Speaker 4: since since since the since the incident. He was accused
- 32:29Speaker 4: of may there, which but he was out of the
- 32:31Speaker 4: country at the time and he's been in businesses nineteen
- 32:34Speaker 4: nineteen eighty eight. But they're gonna they're going to release
- 32:37Speaker 4: him in nineteen ninety eight. But he he he wouldn't
- 32:41Speaker 4: change his play. Well, I wouldn't change your play harder
- 32:44Speaker 4: if I was. Why would you have missed something that
- 32:46Speaker 4: you haven't done, especially something horrendous like that. So he's
- 32:51Speaker 4: going to the Court of appeal.
- 32:53Speaker 2: He was accused of burking someone, which is uh.
- 32:57Speaker 3: Which is what what what's it called baking king?
- 33:00Speaker 2: Yeah, it's a it's a it's a technique where you're
- 33:03Speaker 2: allegedly you kneel on someone's lungs so they can't breathe.
- 33:08Speaker 2: And it came from a weird case of burke and
- 33:11Speaker 2: so and so that was some some antique murder that
- 33:15Speaker 2: happened in the past and then the guy ended up
- 33:20Speaker 2: his corpse ended up a light and it all seemed
- 33:23Speaker 2: like everything on the outside, if you weren't prepared to dig,
- 33:28Speaker 2: looked just like it was Clive. But as soon as
- 33:31Speaker 2: you started scratching, you started to see some things, you
- 33:35Speaker 2: know that that just couldn't couldn't have happened if it
- 33:39Speaker 2: was him, and longest serving prisoner because he's always maintained
- 33:43Speaker 2: his innocence and as such they won't they won't release him,
- 33:46Speaker 2: which is crazy because if he'd pled guilty, he would
- 33:51Speaker 2: maybe have got you know what, six to eight years
- 33:53Speaker 2: or something, but as a result, he's been.
- 33:58Speaker 3: In there like forty forty odd years.
- 34:02Speaker 2: Yeah, a lot of long time. Yeah, yes. And should
- 34:06Speaker 2: I just play that poem that you've sent us, Yeah yeah, yeah,
- 34:10Speaker 2: I've got friends. Let's have a listened to this easy
- 34:13Speaker 2: way else.
- 34:15Speaker 3: But that's just fuol And there's no tolls. You'd be
- 34:19Speaker 3: more blieve. And let's not pretend that they last those
- 34:22Speaker 3: to a sad end.
- 34:25Speaker 2: I've seen an that one with so many young men, yes,
- 34:28Speaker 2: talking about people taking their own lives.
- 34:31Speaker 4: Oh, that's that's that's that I'm recorded that yesterday. That's
- 34:34Speaker 4: no way out. That is a that is about suicidal invention.
- 34:39Speaker 4: It's a but I did the two.
- 34:42Speaker 3: It was back.
- 34:43Speaker 4: I think it's back like a piano, like like a classical,
- 34:48Speaker 4: because I knew it was fit. Because my dad was
- 34:50Speaker 4: a jazz musician as well, so I always grew up
- 34:53Speaker 4: around around music. My gampions had a dance hall and
- 34:57Speaker 4: scot One rolled in the nineteen twenties and thirty, so
- 35:00Speaker 4: we always had piano. We always had instrument around the house.
- 35:04Speaker 4: So I've always had ears.
- 35:07Speaker 2: Yeah, got you. So see you left school, you got
- 35:10Speaker 2: into a bit of the old substances, and how how
- 35:15Speaker 2: did things progress then? So to give you an idea,
- 35:19Speaker 2: I kind of, you know, I came back from Hong
- 35:21Speaker 2: Kong in the nineties, massive crystal meth problem, which then
- 35:26Speaker 2: then turned to base because base speed was the only
- 35:29Speaker 2: thing you could get in this country. And then I,
- 35:33Speaker 2: you know, I was chronic on that for sort of
- 35:35Speaker 2: eighty months, but I couldn't do any longer because my
- 35:38Speaker 2: life just fell apart and I was just just mentally
- 35:41Speaker 2: and physically and material at my house. Yeah, just everything,
- 35:46Speaker 2: the wheels came off everything, and I was kind of
- 35:49Speaker 2: like forced into a position where I had to change.
- 35:52Speaker 2: And that was the moment that I become enlightened by
- 35:57Speaker 2: by leaving the past behind and forgiving, forgive having people,
- 36:00Speaker 2: by being grateful, and by cutting down on that staff.
- 36:05Speaker 2: That was enough to put the wheels in motion to
- 36:08Speaker 2: let literally let the light into my soul or let
- 36:11Speaker 2: my soul connect with the divine and I just I
- 36:15Speaker 2: got it. Then it's like, wow, I get it.
- 36:18Speaker 3: I think that's what the holy spirit is. I think
- 36:21Speaker 3: that's what it is.
- 36:21Speaker 4: When when when the light comes in and that I
- 36:24Speaker 4: got ideal poem called the Kingdom of Heaven, they're both
- 36:27Speaker 4: going up as a child.
- 36:28Speaker 3: And then when you you know, when you reach that
- 36:32Speaker 3: whatever the state.
- 36:32Speaker 4: Of awareness or consciousness or you know, enlightenment, whatever you
- 36:39Speaker 4: want to call it, how you get there, it doesn't
- 36:41Speaker 4: matter you get there as long as you get there.
- 36:43Speaker 4: But I don't think you can get there because because
- 36:47Speaker 4: what when you're taking substance and you're teaking.
- 36:50Speaker 3: Because I I I live.
- 36:51Speaker 4: Through the heroine epidemic in in the in the eighties,
- 36:57Speaker 4: and it was absolutely adrendous that there was most of
- 37:00Speaker 4: the people who I grew up with dad to I'd
- 37:03Speaker 4: say at least half of them todd through the heroine
- 37:06Speaker 4: heroine epidemic and then the crack crack epidemic in the nineties,

- 37:34Speaker 4: it where you in the end where you can you
- 37:37Speaker 4: can actually get there through breath to breed and through breath,

- 39:51Speaker 2: But I'm Jimmy, I'm just curious. I really want to track.
- 39:55Speaker 2: I basically want to know your drug history because that
- 39:59Speaker 2: give you an idea of where you were in your mind,
- 40:01Speaker 2: your life. So you said you're experimenting a bit at school.
- 40:07Speaker 2: How did it get heavy with you?
- 40:08Speaker 3: What kind of I think in the eighties I.
- 40:13Speaker 4: Smoked a lot of weeds and things like that, and
- 40:15Speaker 4: then I've seen a lot of people taking like a heroine.
- 40:19Speaker 3: I had a little gold myself.
- 40:21Speaker 4: Not really bad. And then the nineties it was more cocaine.
- 40:27Speaker 4: But me it was cocaine, cocaine and alcohol and like that.
- 40:31Speaker 2: And did you get to a place where you thought,
- 40:34Speaker 2: you know, I'll start to leave the substances behind, but
- 40:38Speaker 2: I'll go a bit more regular on the alcohol.
- 40:42Speaker 4: No, as soon as I had the pints, I wanted
- 40:44Speaker 4: the lion. I wanted the lion as soon as I
- 40:47Speaker 4: had the berby. So it's sort of like I was
- 40:52Speaker 4: thinking every day and I'm seeing coq every day. Yeah, okay, excessively.
- 40:56Speaker 4: I always had a glamor coconbe and I used to
- 41:00Speaker 4: go to the football. Is the bot follow the football?
- 41:03Speaker 4: And that is a bad combination. And then I've done
- 41:08Speaker 4: some habes I don't. I had a little visitation with
- 41:13Speaker 4: my able friends and it's sort of give me the
- 41:17Speaker 4: nudge in the right direction.
- 41:19Speaker 2: Where was it like a ceremony that you did or
- 41:22Speaker 2: did you just take yeah, what did that?
- 41:28Speaker 3: Drinking the the plant?
- 41:31Speaker 2: And did they like the bong you know bong the
- 41:34Speaker 2: bowls or no?
- 41:37Speaker 4: No, it was just there was it was a shaman
- 41:40Speaker 4: and I dug the potion and then I sort of
- 41:44Speaker 4: went into the mystic and it was like as if
- 41:47Speaker 4: somebody like held a mirror up and I could see
- 41:52Speaker 4: myself again and I was like, oh, they are they
- 41:55Speaker 4: And it's sort of like a set me up, put
- 41:58Speaker 4: me on the path to you know, having them awakening,
- 42:03Speaker 4: And yeah, part of the path of the righteous is
- 42:06Speaker 4: never easy, as they say, I think. I think most
- 42:09Speaker 4: people who become enlightened or whatever you want, you know,
- 42:14Speaker 4: who become cluch conscious, I think most of them their
- 42:18Speaker 4: lives it's passion and pain. They have a lot of
- 42:21Speaker 4: passion and pain and the life and and trauma and
- 42:24Speaker 4: things like that. But it's completely the crystals mess has
- 42:30Speaker 4: helped me what crystals to use, and I I stopped drinking,
- 42:36Speaker 4: stop taking substance, and and then I started writing, and
- 42:41Speaker 4: I found writing to be the most therapeutic thing that
- 42:44Speaker 4: I'd ever done. And then the poems I could actually
- 42:49Speaker 4: through the plant medicine. It gave me this thing where I.
- 42:52Speaker 3: Could It was a bit, a little bit like Scrooge.
- 42:55Speaker 3: It was like Scrooge.
- 42:56Speaker 4: It showed me faces of my life, but it showed
- 43:00Speaker 4: me through history out you know, we've been manipulated. But
- 43:05Speaker 4: then I could sort of like zip in back in,
- 43:09Speaker 4: and I was not without taking anything through meditation. I
- 43:12Speaker 4: would medicine and I get these downloads and I would
- 43:14Speaker 4: write the poems.
- 43:16Speaker 3: So it was sort of like time.
- 43:18Speaker 4: It felt like I was time because it was actually there,
- 43:21Speaker 4: and I'd write the poems and then i'd come back.
- 43:24Speaker 3: I would be like a download.
- 43:26Speaker 4: And then I showed me made them and and he
- 43:28Speaker 4: was like, wow, they they I said, He said, when
- 43:31Speaker 4: you like them. I said that I don't like ten
- 43:33Speaker 4: of them last night, and he was like it was
- 43:35Speaker 4: like now, and it was like and he's like music.
- 43:39Speaker 3: As you said. And he helped me, helped me a lot,
- 43:44Speaker 3: and we did.
- 43:46Speaker 4: We recorded them and then we put sound effects to
- 43:49Speaker 4: them and and they sort of like went from there,
- 43:52Speaker 4: and then I was soon after four or five years
- 43:57Speaker 4: and just add them, not not using them, but then
- 43:59Speaker 4: they I just look like a YouTube channel where I
- 44:02Speaker 4: would I would show them often, but it wasn't really
- 44:05Speaker 4: getting much. It wasn't really getting much. It was I
- 44:10Speaker 4: would say something some which yeah, I don't know. I
- 44:14Speaker 4: end up shadow Shadow Band quite a lot.
- 44:17Speaker 2: On the on the channel. Yeah. Yeah, you've got to
- 44:21Speaker 2: play by their by their rules, you know. Yeah.
- 44:26Speaker 3: But so then in Lockdown, I.
- 44:31Speaker 4: I've done a couple of ceremonies, about three or four ceremonies,
- 44:35Speaker 4: like short ceremonies were inhaling the plant, and.
- 44:41Speaker 3: I learned how to make films in Lockdown. Well, I don't,
- 44:47Speaker 3: I don't know what.
- 44:48Speaker 4: I've done a couple of them, like films show film
- 44:51Speaker 4: documentaries and loved it.
- 44:52Speaker 3: And and and the events.
- 44:54Speaker 4: I was just doing outdoor events, and it was I
- 44:56Speaker 4: actually enjoyed Lockdown, to be know, because I didn't do
- 45:01Speaker 4: the stuff what I used to do. So for me,
- 45:05Speaker 4: enjoying was going for a walk or going on my
- 45:07Speaker 4: bike or I was just sitting in the park and bright.
- 45:10Speaker 4: So it was very it was I'd say the first one,
- 45:13Speaker 4: the second one wasn't so it wasn't much fun because
- 45:15Speaker 4: it was in the winter. The first one was in
- 45:17Speaker 4: the summer. I got a lovely time. I looked like
- 45:19Speaker 4: I've been in the barmas.
- 45:23Speaker 2: Yeah, that was it was certainly interesting, interesting times And
- 45:29Speaker 2: so did you have Was it just the plants sundary
- 45:33Speaker 2: then that it set you up?
- 45:36Speaker 3: No?
- 45:36Speaker 4: I think I was what happened with me because I
- 45:39Speaker 4: hit the wall. I said to you before I hit
- 45:41Speaker 4: the wall, because it was getting it was getting that
- 45:43Speaker 4: bad that missus and me and my kids were saying
- 45:47Speaker 4: to my dad, what are you're doing?
- 45:48Speaker 3: What you doing yourself? You just, you know, legs out
- 45:52Speaker 3: of control.
- 45:53Speaker 2: Did it get to the point where you just didn't
- 45:55Speaker 2: enjoy it anymore but you were sort of addicted.
- 45:57Speaker 4: To do it?
- 45:58Speaker 3: Yeah? Yeah, yeah, exactly what it was?
- 46:01Speaker 2: You did you find yourself. It's like you didn't want
- 46:05Speaker 2: to be deceitful for people. It wasn't about that, but
- 46:08Speaker 2: you just knew they're never going to understand and they're
- 46:11Speaker 2: never going to accept it, so it's probably best they
- 46:14Speaker 2: don't know. So you you kind of tried not do
- 46:18Speaker 2: you know what I mean, try to keep a normal
- 46:19Speaker 2: face on it.
- 46:20Speaker 4: Yeah, you become a good liar, you become a good
- 46:24Speaker 4: You're wear a mask and you and you pretend that
- 46:27Speaker 4: beings all right, but you're smiling on the outside of
- 46:29Speaker 4: crying on the end. You'd be like, like I say
- 46:32Speaker 4: it like like a game show host, like you know,
- 46:35Speaker 4: like that you my means, that's my meat to say.
- 46:38Speaker 4: And he says, you're like, you know, you're like Leslie Clark,
- 46:42Speaker 4: Leslie Crowd or something like come on there, like, well inside,
- 46:46Speaker 4: you know you you're crying inside.
- 46:49Speaker 3: Absolutely so.
- 46:51Speaker 2: Yeah, So now that you've reached a state of consciousness, Yeah,
- 46:56Speaker 2: how would you describe it for other people?
- 46:59Speaker 3: What?
- 47:00Speaker 4: What?
- 47:00Speaker 3: You know?
- 47:00Speaker 2: What?
- 47:01Speaker 3: What do I think?
- 47:02Speaker 4: I think it's I think it's it's joy it's joyous,
- 47:06Speaker 4: and it's it's it's celebrating. I think asks you the
- 47:10Speaker 4: gratitude that has a lot to do with it, like
- 47:12Speaker 4: being grateful for your life, just for weak and up
- 47:15Speaker 4: in the morning. And I actually pray a lot now,
- 47:18Speaker 4: not to the fellow on the cloud. I actually pray
- 47:21Speaker 4: to the to the to the enity of God, or
- 47:25Speaker 4: to me I yourself, or to my ancestors.
- 47:29Speaker 3: I pray to them.
- 47:30Speaker 4: It's always given me strength to you know, and guide
- 47:34Speaker 4: me because I think prayer is a mantra.
- 47:36Speaker 3: I think prayer is it's like anything with a vibration,
- 47:41Speaker 3: vibrational being.
- 47:42Speaker 4: So it's being proven that you know, like the thing,
- 47:46Speaker 4: but the with the with the with the with the
- 47:48Speaker 4: eyes where you where you talk to one glass you
- 47:51Speaker 4: say horrible things to her, and then you say nice
- 47:54Speaker 4: things are real, and then you get the bit of
- 47:55Speaker 4: anati sequence with the you get the the the lotus,
- 48:01Speaker 4: you know, the lotus flower, the symbol, and then the
- 48:04Speaker 4: glass ends up all the stores and I think that's
- 48:07Speaker 4: no difference in human beings.
- 48:10Speaker 2: Feel now then now that you understand that, you know
- 48:13Speaker 2: that the organized religions at its designed for you know,
- 48:18Speaker 2: opiate for the masses, isn't it? And contrary, Liverpool is
- 48:23Speaker 2: obviously notorious for being a Catholic area. And correct me
- 48:29Speaker 2: if I'm wrong, But do you how do you feel
- 48:31Speaker 2: now when you look out at people that just.
- 48:34Speaker 3: I think a lot of a lot of people have
- 48:36Speaker 3: come away from being honest, you know.
- 48:40Speaker 4: I think that's why they're selling them all at because
- 48:42Speaker 4: people don't they don't meet with them anymore.
- 48:45Speaker 3: You see a poor police, do you No?
- 48:51Speaker 2: I'm just wondering if it's worth worth buying one. I'm
- 48:54Speaker 2: trying to think what you could do with it. Obviously,
- 48:57Speaker 2: they make good nightclubs, we know, we know that from
- 49:00Speaker 2: New York and our local rave was called the Monastery
- 49:03Speaker 2: that that that was an old monastery. That was a good,
- 49:07Speaker 2: good one.
- 49:07Speaker 3: Always like the rave seems good. Yeah, I used to.
- 49:10Speaker 3: I used to enjoy it. I got a good little rave.
- 49:13Speaker 2: What about a roller disco where every time you go
- 49:16Speaker 2: past the pulpit you get blessed. Every time you you know,
- 49:21Speaker 2: every time you every time you hop over the font,
- 49:24Speaker 2: you get born again. There you go.
- 49:26Speaker 4: Yeah, I think people would resonate with that more, wouldn't it.
- 49:29Speaker 4: But I just think the the absolute hypocrisy of it.
- 49:33Speaker 4: And also with the plant, with the with the with
- 49:38Speaker 4: the herbs. I found a lot more information. I seem
- 49:42Speaker 4: to get a lot of downloads and a lot of
- 49:44Speaker 4: stuff used to come into me into my Probably you
- 49:48Speaker 4: probably find it yourself because with the algorithms and things.
- 49:52Speaker 3: Like that, I buy a lot more information comes in
- 49:55Speaker 3: and like see it.
- 49:59Speaker 4: Like see they were Constantine where they created all the
- 50:04Speaker 4: religions with the control of mechanisms, because it was basically
- 50:09Speaker 4: you know, the fund for me now football is the religion.
- 50:12Speaker 4: You be Man United, you be Liverpool, you'll be Arsenal.
- 50:16Speaker 4: That's like Islam, you know, Christianity, but it was not
- 50:22Speaker 4: so much.
- 50:24Speaker 3: You know like.
- 50:27Speaker 5: And because I think that's what liket and and I
- 50:37Speaker 5: think that energy has come back around in the you know,
- 50:40Speaker 5: in the within the planets and things like that, and
- 50:43Speaker 5: it's it's it's the first sound that we've it's it's
- 50:48Speaker 5: it's a very I don't know, it's square.
- 50:51Speaker 3: I don't believe in coincidence, but they do seem to
- 50:54Speaker 3: be a mass awaken in that. Man.
- 50:56Speaker 2: Yeah, the thing is in nice talk about this quite
- 50:59Speaker 2: a lot on this channel is being awake, you know,
- 51:02Speaker 2: understanding that there's a problem that that's one thing that
- 51:05Speaker 2: but you're stilling a matrix when when you're awake, you know,
- 51:10Speaker 2: being in like being in like, well, it's very different.
- 51:15Speaker 3: Well I think what it is being like you don't
- 51:17Speaker 3: get I don't get thrown into it.
- 51:19Speaker 4: I like George Carlin's and the front or the ure,
- 51:25Speaker 4: you know where you can just go, oh that's start,
- 51:28Speaker 4: and that's start.
- 51:28Speaker 3: I'm okay because I don't want celebrasion.
- 51:32Speaker 2: Jimmy, you were saying a way to help people is
- 51:35Speaker 2: you can sort of reveal the codes. Would you agree?
- 51:38Speaker 2: You can lead a horse to water, but you definitely
- 51:41Speaker 2: can't make them drink that.
- 51:43Speaker 3: People after you can't make them drink their journeys. Yeah,
- 51:46Speaker 3: their journey's their journey. You've got to go to it yourself.
- 51:51Speaker 4: You've got to go to your your your challenges and
- 51:53Speaker 4: your tests and and and past the tests, and you know,
- 51:58Speaker 4: laying from your alience. I don't really think you can
- 52:02Speaker 4: awaken other people. I think they've got to go to
- 52:05Speaker 4: that themselves. But if you can just give them a
- 52:07Speaker 4: nudge and just say maybe you know this or maybe that,
- 52:11Speaker 4: I think it all helps.
- 52:12Speaker 2: Absolutely. Absolutely, Jimmy, it's been a fascinating chat. It's been
- 52:18Speaker 2: wonderful learning about about your life. It's you for having met,
- 52:24Speaker 2: Thank you for having me on No, absolute, absolute pleasure.
- 52:29Speaker 2: You know, as you can probably guess, these are the
- 52:32Speaker 2: conversations I like to have there about esoterics, aren't they,
- 52:35Speaker 2: Which is a yeah, of course, special special part, special
- 52:40Speaker 2: part of life. And i'd encourage everyone to take an interest.
- 52:44Speaker 2: And and you know, had I known back along when
- 52:48Speaker 2: I was having all my struggles or my my challenges,
- 52:52Speaker 2: let's say, had I known all you had to do
- 52:54Speaker 2: was that, and you suddenly become divided, you know, you
- 52:59Speaker 2: become God manifest. Then then I wish I wish someone
- 53:03Speaker 2: had told me that, Jimmy, do you know what I mean?
- 53:05Speaker 3: Yeah, that's what I'm saying, is if you introduced it
- 53:08Speaker 3: into the schools, and it was.
- 53:10Speaker 4: Introduced into the curriculum, then you would have a lot
- 53:12Speaker 4: of a little little buddhis a little Yes, she was
- 53:15Speaker 4: walking around, you know.
- 53:18Speaker 3: Yes, it wouldn't be a bad thing with it. No,
- 53:21Speaker 3: it wouldn't. It wouldn't.
- 53:24Speaker 2: It wouldn't, it wouldn't at all. I was just going
- 53:26Speaker 2: to make an explanation there of why these kind of
- 53:29Speaker 2: god images are masculine. And it's nothing to you, always masculine.
- 53:35Speaker 3: But when it's called Mother Earth.
- 53:38Speaker 2: Yes, so it's it's the mother is the emotional nature, yeah,
- 53:44Speaker 2: or male is the sorry, female is the emotional.
- 53:47Speaker 3: The emotional nature.
- 53:49Speaker 2: Male is them is the mind, you know, And and
- 53:55Speaker 2: it's all about masculine feminine. It's not actually about blokes
- 53:58Speaker 2: and women. See it seems a bit unfair, but.
- 54:03Speaker 3: Well it's it's like.
- 54:06Speaker 4: I think, I I got I come to the conclusion
- 54:09Speaker 4: that the a gentle man is someone who's in touch
- 54:14Speaker 4: with his feminine and his masculine.
- 54:17Speaker 3: It isn't Ah, he's a gentleman. You're a gentle man.
- 54:21Speaker 4: You're you know, you're a gentle man, you know, and
- 54:24Speaker 4: you're a protector and you're the nature. And I think
- 54:28Speaker 4: it's been wrongly used, like everything else. Well, you know,
- 54:32Speaker 4: a gentleman and someone who's greas the top hart on
- 54:35Speaker 4: a bowler or a bowler artem.
- 54:37Speaker 3: Has came and where's a corombie and he can be
- 54:40Speaker 3: a complete a complete cad s.
- 54:46Speaker 2: No, they're terms that you don't really hear these days,
- 54:48Speaker 2: aren't they They were quite you know, that was quite
- 54:50Speaker 2: popular in when we were younger, and definitely our parents'
