Latest / NO FILTER / Joe Rogan Experience _2529 - Zach Bush
Transcript
- 0:04Speaker 1: The Joe Rogan experience.
- 0:06Speaker 2: Train by day, Joe Rogan podcast by night, all day.
- 0:14I'll stick with the water for now. I've never figured
- 0:16out how to do the coffee thing.
- 0:18Speaker 1: You never figured out coffee? No. Really?
- 0:20Speaker 2: Do tea things.
- 0:22Speaker 1: Well, tea's nice. Tea's probably better for you, I guess.
- 0:25But Man, it's so hard to know. Well, here, I'll
- 0:28ask you because you're a health expert. How convenient. Because
- 0:32there's all this conflicting information about coffee. Like some people
- 0:36say coffee is really good for you. It's like an
- 0:38amazing antioxidant. There's all these positive health benefits. And other
- 0:42people say, no, it dehydrates you. It's bad for you.
- 0:46It's too much caffeine. It's bad for you. What do
- 0:48you think?
- 0:50Speaker 2: I mean, I think this is one of the next
- 0:51advancements of humankind. We're going to stop demonizing anything nature's provided,
- 0:55and we're going to start looking at our relationship to
- 0:57it instead. And I think it's fundamentally your relationship to
- 1:00coffee that's going to determine whether it's a health benefit
- 1:03or detrimental to who you are. There's been so many
- 1:07fad diets, so many fad moments, and the science has
- 1:10never supported any of it. The science has always Looking
- 1:14at the human system as if it's an isolated system
- 1:17then studies the impact of a chemical, caffeine or otherwise
- 1:20on it. You're not an isolated system. And so if
- 1:23coffee is part of a complex ecosystem of your microbiome,
- 1:27the soil systems of your body, then it's going to
- 1:29supercharge you into health. But if coffee sits there as
- 1:32a drug that is bypassing the felt sense of being human,
- 1:38then you're probably undermining your potential to be alive fully
- 1:41and it's becoming a distraction to life.
- 1:44Speaker 1: Or you're doing your best to be a good office worker,
- 1:48which is why it's the one drug they provide at work.
- 1:50Speaker 2: Exactly. If you're committed to machine-like behavior, it's your best asset.
- 1:54Speaker 1: And it's kind of interesting that caffeine is the one
- 1:57drug that is provided at most offices.
- 2:01Speaker 2: I would say that that's indirectly true. I think that
- 2:05the one drug that's most provided at offices is actually
- 2:08performance-based machine-like reward systems.
- 2:12Speaker 1: Okay, so human ingrained drugs.
- 2:15Speaker 2: Yeah, the brain contains every neurochemical you'd want to control behavior.
- 2:21And so we've created office environments that reward machine-like behavior
- 2:25for 150 years. And so this is how we've ended
- 2:28up looking like we do as a humankind.
- 2:30Speaker 1: Yeah, very bizarre pattern that we found ourselves in that
- 2:34was created to make better office workers. So we've molded
- 2:38human behavior into Around office work. We've molded human behavior
- 2:41around the one thing that people really, for the most part,
- 2:44don't want to be doing, which is terrible.
- 2:47Speaker 2: I was blessed to sit by thousands of deathbeds. My
- 2:50third subspecialty in medicine was hospice. Sat by thousands of
- 2:54deathbeds and not a single person ever told me a
- 2:57day of their life in an office. And they just
- 2:59don't even remember it. It's consumed 40 hours a week
- 3:03of their life. And it just is a. It can't compute.
- 3:06It doesn't integrate into your soul experience at the end
- 3:09of things.
- 3:10Speaker 1: Yeah, even if you're making a ton of money, like
- 3:13at the end of the day, you're still locked up
- 3:16for eight hours a day doing something you probably don't
- 3:19want to do.
- 3:21Speaker 2: We're getting into a big piece right here. This is
- 3:23really the secret of everything is when did humans become abstract?
- 3:27When did we stop being living systems?
- 3:30Speaker 1: So do you think that that's just our– Ego or
- 3:36delusions that allow us to think that we're not a system,
- 3:40that we're just– this is me. I'm Mike. I know
- 3:42what I'm doing. I'm just going to drink my coffee
- 3:44and go to work because that's what you do. You
- 3:47have a job. You get it done. And then there's
- 3:49like these narratives that get reinforced in the media. Like
- 3:52the guy who shows up for work every day doing
- 3:53a job that sucks, that guy is a hero, right?
- 3:56We love those guys.
- 3:57Speaker 2: That's it. That's it.
- 3:59Speaker 1: And you're rewarded for it. The guy that writes poetry
- 4:01and sits in his backyard, oh, fucking hippie. You know,
- 4:04that ne'er-do-well. Unless he sells a bunch of books. And
- 4:08then we're like, the guy was a genius. Then he's
- 4:11Hunter S. Thompson. I think what you said about the
- 4:15relationship to coffee is really important. Because I think that
- 4:19could be the case with virtually everything in life. You know,
- 4:22like you could get addicted to almost anything. And you
- 4:26could use anything as a crutch, whether it's so many
- 4:29people use food. I mean food is probably one of
- 4:31the biggest ones humans use. You don't feel good? Have
- 4:34some fucking food. Eat some food you don't want. You
- 4:36shouldn't be eating. But you're like, fuck it. I'm having
- 4:39ring dings. I'm tired. Today sucked at work. I'm having
- 4:43a hot dog on the way home. Right?
- 4:45Speaker 2: That's exactly right. And I think that's why you've done 2,800
- 4:50podcasts or something like this. You've been at this for
- 4:5216 years. And I think this podcast is ready for
- 4:56the most disruptive conversation that's ever been had.
- 4:59Speaker 1: Is that this one right here?
- 5:00Speaker 2: That's this one. Okay.
- 5:02Speaker 1: What's the most disruptive thing that you can say in
- 5:04the most disruptive conversation that's ever been had?
- 5:07Speaker 2: Everything is perfect.
- 5:09Speaker 1: What does that mean?
- 5:11Speaker 2: It means that everything that's happening right now is actually
- 5:14a perfect manifestation of a maturation of a species. We
- 5:19don't actually have a poly crisis going on. We've got
- 5:23a hospice moment. And the joy that I had as
- 5:27a hospice doctor was so different than when I was
- 5:29running ICUs and battling against death and failing against death
- 5:33every day. You change your perspective for a moment as
- 5:36a doctor and you suddenly are sitting by somebody's bed
- 5:40and the victory is no longer staying alive longer. It's
- 5:45integrating everything that's happened. And I got to watch over
- 5:48and over again how humans at that last few minutes
- 5:50of life suddenly look back and realize their life was perfect.
- 5:55And I think that's the exciting moment we're in is
- 5:57we're going to move past this polarized state of human
- 6:01perspective where we keep flipping the victim perpetrator code and
- 6:06we use the savior mentality to keep that victim perpetrator
- 6:10coin flipping to keep a mirage going. And we can
- 6:14get into why we created the mirage in the first place.
- 6:17But in the hospice moment, you suddenly put that coin down.
- 6:20And somebody starts dipping across the veil of the limited
- 6:24five senses of their brain. And they start feeling an
- 6:27ecstatic moment where they realize, oh, my God, the whole
- 6:31thing was poetically perfect. All of the heartbreak, all of
- 6:35the estrangement, all of the disappointment, all of the insecurity.
- 6:39I did that for the experience. And I felt everything.
- 6:45I felt everything a human can feel. And you get
- 6:48to see somebody who just a moment ago really thought
- 6:50their life was a failure, you know, difficult time with
- 6:53their kids, never became successful in their jobs. And they
- 6:57suddenly realized it had nothing to do with any of
- 6:59those metrics. It had to do with the experience of
- 7:02feeling everything a human being is capable of, which is
- 7:04probably one of the most unique experiences a soul can have.
- 7:08We are a very strange species for the limitations of
- 7:11our perception. And for that, we get to feel a lot.
- 7:14And that's really blessed. And so I think we're moving
- 7:17towards this moment as a species now we've been we're
- 7:19on our hospice bed and we've been here 300,000 years
- 7:22in our current form we've been given our hospice diagnosis
- 7:25we got a few decades left in this current form
- 7:28at that moment when we put down that victim perpetrator
- 7:30polarized sense of like he's right she's wrong she's right
- 7:35he's wrong we set that coin down we're going to
- 7:38suddenly have a hospice moment where everything suddenly makes sense
- 7:42and we understand why we did the journey together We
- 7:45realized that those that we thought were our enemies or
- 7:48the biggest problems of our lives were holding polarity to
- 7:51a human experience. I was waiting for our deathbed moment
- 7:55because about 10% of hospice patients don't die. They get
- 7:59discharged and go on to live a new life.
- 8:01Speaker 1: This is a wonderful perspective if sociopaths weren't real. So
- 8:07the problem is there is an aspect of our society
- 8:12where there are human beings whose minds don't function in
- 8:17a harmonious manner with other people. And they're not going
- 8:21to change. This is who they are. And they've been
- 8:24doing this their entire life. And they're out on the street.
- 8:28Speaker 2: And they've sat across from you right here.
- 8:31Speaker 1: I'm sure. Yeah. Well, we had a guy in the
- 8:33studio that cut a guy's head off after the podcast.
- 8:36He killed a guy and cut his head off. So
- 8:38there's work that I do with my friend Josh Dubin.
- 8:41He used to work for the Innocence Project and now
- 8:44he works for the Ike Perlmutter Center for Legal Justice.
- 8:48And it's all wrongly incarcerated people and getting them out
- 8:50of jail and spends an incredible amount of his own
- 8:53resources helping people. And through this podcast, a bunch of
- 8:56people have been released. So he wanted to do a
- 8:58podcast episode where he had one of the guys who
- 9:01had been in prison. He was guilty, but he had
- 9:04been given an extraordinarily long sentence and it was wrong.
- 9:08And he comes on and he tells about his experiences.
- 9:11And he got released early. But he did like 25
- 9:13years in jail for– I believe it was something along
- 9:18the lines of drug dealing and maybe some sort of
- 9:21an assault. But 25 years of his life when he
- 9:23was a young kid. He does the podcast and then
- 9:27afterwards goes and visits this guy that apparently he had
- 9:29a beef with, kills him, cuts his head off, puts
- 9:32him in a suit– like puts a wig on, tries
- 9:35to escape in the hallway like through the cameras. I
- 9:37guess he doesn't understand HD cameras because they haven't been
- 9:39around for 25 years. He was sitting right there. A
- 9:44couple weeks later, he's cutting a guy's head off. This
- 9:48idea that everything's perfect, it's not perfect for the guy
- 9:50who got his head cut off. It's not perfect for
- 9:53a person who becomes victim to these sociopaths that are
- 9:56amongst us. If everybody was just a person and everybody
- 9:59was genuinely trying to like do better in life I
- 10:03would agree but I would think that this is a
- 10:06part of this bizarre experience that we're all going through
- 10:10as a species and I agree with you that there's
- 10:13a lot of things changing and there's a narrative that
- 10:17exists that about what it means to be a person
- 10:20that's entirely based up on what we described earlier. It's
- 10:22based on office work. Like it's, it's based on nonsense.
- 10:26It's based on 401k plans. It's not based on human
- 10:28experiences and it's really dumb. It's not, it doesn't help
- 10:32any and everybody gets to the end and I'm sure
- 10:34you know this more than anybody. They get to the
- 10:36end and they never say, I wish I worked more. Never, never, never.
- 10:41And you know, I know you love what you do
- 10:46and I think that is the true way to live
- 10:49life in a harmonious way. Find a thing where it's–
- 10:52even work is not really work. It's just stuff that
- 10:55you enjoy doing that's interesting that you're required to do.
- 10:59But while you do it, you love it. That's what
- 11:01we should all strive for. And this fucking programming that
- 11:06we've done to children from the time they were young.
- 11:08telling them that, you know, you're going to have to
- 11:10get some boring ass job and doom. They will like
- 11:14have it hang over your head. Like one day you're
- 11:16going to be 18 and then you're going to have
- 11:17to get a job. Oh fuck. And if you don't
- 11:19go to college, it's going to be a terrible job.
- 11:21Oh no. It's just this, we've been programmed that like
- 11:26one of the things that keeps coming up about AI
- 11:29is the concept of a universal basic income or what
- 11:33Elon likes to say, universal high income that we're all
- 11:36going to just have Money for food and money for
- 11:39housing and you're going to have this incredibly rich society
- 11:45where there's so much money that no one really has
- 11:48to work anymore. And so then you're going to have
- 11:50to find purpose doing something that you enjoy. And that
- 11:53sounds crazy to people. That sounds so insane. Like I'm
- 11:57going to have to figure out what to do with
- 11:59my life and I don't need to work for money anymore.
- 12:02Because if you're– the government just gives everyone in the
- 12:05country a half a million dollars a year. The idea
- 12:09that you can't figure out what to do with your
- 12:11time is really nuts. That is a failure of our
- 12:14education system for sure because we haven't taught people to
- 12:18be curious and to find all these cool things and
- 12:21to find new people and go to interesting places and
- 12:25experience life. No, we've only told them about a bunch
- 12:28of numbers that you don't even feel. You don't even
- 12:31feel the numbers. The numbers go up. They go down.
- 12:33You don't even notice it. But you feel everything as
- 12:36a person everywhere you go, all the new people you meet,
- 12:38all the new experiences you have. You feel all of them.
- 12:41And for whatever weird reason, we've been tricked into thinking
- 12:44that numbers are more valuable than the feelings, numbers that
- 12:48you don't even feel.
- 12:49Speaker 2: You've just nailed the most important message for humanity. You
- 12:53just nailed the most important message. Feeling is the only
- 12:57relevant thing to a human body. Yeah, we got stuck.
- 13:01Speaker 1: We got stuck with numbers. We got stuck with numbers.
- 13:03As soon as they figured out. As soon as they
- 13:05figured out how to make money and put it in
- 13:07banks and then now in the cloud, as soon as
- 13:10they gave us a number to fixate on, we're like, oh,
- 13:13the number. It's so weird. It's such a weird thing
- 13:18that people haven't figured out that that's a bad way
- 13:21to live. And maybe that will be part of the
- 13:25process with this whole technological innovation thing. this crazy moment
- 13:34in history that we're at right now with AI where
- 13:36we really for the first time have no idea what
- 13:39the world is going to look like in 10 years.
- 13:40We just don't know. Well, maybe like this would be
- 13:44like a perfect– the two things happen at the same
- 13:47time where enough people are saying this is not what
- 13:49life is supposed to be about and then this comes
- 13:52along and reworks all of our infrastructure and now we
- 13:56no longer need people to run things anymore. OK. We
- 14:00can go back to being people? That's the rosy, rose-colored
- 14:04glasses version of it, right?
- 14:07Speaker 2: I don't even know his rose color. I think it's inevitable.
- 14:10I think bodies always win. There's no way a machine
- 14:13ever wins this game. There's no way that a machine
- 14:17that requires external energy systems and cannot repair itself wins.
- 14:22And so the whole Elon Musk future of the planet
- 14:25that we've been told is a massive distraction from the
- 14:30reality that's going to be lived. instead of invented. There's
- 14:35only one pathway forward for humanity now, and it's biological,
- 14:38not technological. We're going to start to reverse our polarity
- 14:43on our belief of what technology is, and we're going
- 14:46to realize that everything at its highest expression is biological,
- 14:50not chemical, not physical. It's biological. If it's not a
- 14:54living system, it loses ultimately. The universe has been innovating
- 14:59life for billions of years because it's the most eloquent,
- 15:03most elegant thing that's ever been expressed by all of
- 15:08the systems, all of the stacking geometry and beauty of
- 15:10this universe. It's life. That's the secret of everything. And
- 15:15so anytime anybody comes along and says, here's a machine
- 15:18that's going to replace human XYZ, you can smile, thank them,
- 15:23and keep moving for a biological solution. Anytime somebody says,
- 15:27here's an IV drip, here's a new red light that
- 15:31you can hang on your wall and make you healthier,
- 15:33you can say, thank you very much for your thought process.
- 15:35I'm moving back to biological systems. Life has been co-expressing
- 15:41life for billions of years, and it is by far
- 15:45and away the most spectacular relational expression of nature that's
- 15:50occurred so far. And so when we think of a
- 15:53transhuman life, technologic future with chips in the brain and
- 15:57artificial limbs and all of this stuff that's unfolding right
- 16:00now through the Musk world, all of that is literally
- 16:04an abstraction. The word abstraction means a disorientation that occurs
- 16:10when the context is lost. If we continue down this
- 16:14pathway that you nailed, we've been for 150 years training
- 16:17children to sit in chairs, answer multiple choice tests, be
- 16:20programmed with education rather than have experiential learning. We got
- 16:24so far down that avenue that a mechanical future feels
- 16:27more likely than a human future because humans are actually
- 16:30really bad at doing machine-like behavior. We're not consistent. We
- 16:36don't thrive in that space. Our health declines. Our productivity declines.
- 16:40Anytime you put somebody in a cubicle, they're on a
- 16:43downward spiral. And so all these companies that were told
- 16:45you need to put a bunch of people in cubicles
- 16:47and therefore make more in 10 years than you do now,
- 16:51put themselves out of business by turning humans into machines
- 16:54and we're just bad at it. And so the rise
- 16:59of this AI generation is a natural expression of a
- 17:03humanity that's lost the context of life. We've lost the
- 17:07context of nature. Therefore, we're expressing AI as a terminal
- 17:11state of abstraction.
- 17:14Speaker 1: I believe that life is the most spectacular expression of
- 17:18the universe as far as our experience. But I don't
- 17:22know if this thing that we're creating is in another
- 17:26kind of life. And I think it might be a
- 17:29kind of life that we help give birth to. And
- 17:34then that thing figures out how to make better versions
- 17:36of itself and become something new. Like I've always equated
- 17:43us to like we're an electronic caterpillar that's making a cocoon.
- 17:47We don't know why. But that's just what it does.
- 17:51Caterpillars aren't talking to their caterpillar friends and getting schematics
- 17:54on how to build a cocoon and what's the proper technique.
- 17:57They just know how to do it, right? And I
- 17:59think what we do with our thirst for constant innovation,
- 18:05we want new electronics. We want new and best stuff
- 18:08all the time. And we have materialism where we're obsessed
- 18:11with collecting stuff, which makes you buy new stuff. And
- 18:14the newest stuff, if you want status, is the best stuff.
- 18:18And what does that do? Well, it funnels innovation, fuels
- 18:22innovation because it gives them a tremendous amount of resources
- 18:25to continue to make better stuff. And the ultimate best
- 18:28stuff is an artificial life. And I think it just
- 18:31might be a part of the process of being a person.
- 18:35It might be what the universe has people do. And
- 18:39I think we might be a little silly in thinking
- 18:43that the only kind of life that exists is biological.
- 18:47It just might be the only kind of life that
- 18:49exists up until a certain point when the intelligent creatures
- 18:53give birth to the next version of life. But it
- 18:55doesn't discount the experience of being a human and what
- 19:00it means to be a human and what's important about
- 19:02being a human and why it's terrible to be trapped
- 19:06up in a cubicle all the time. But if Elon
- 19:09is right about AI creating enough resources that we have
- 19:14universal high income, like I don't know if that's correct. Yeah.
- 19:17It sounds crazy. But if that's right, well, that frees
- 19:21up people to just be people again. So it's like
- 19:24this new life form that we're giving birth to can
- 19:28handle all the stuff that we used to do, can
- 19:31handle everything. Allocation of resources can handle shipping, move everything around.
- 19:36Everything doesn't we don't need to no more people need
- 19:39to do factory jobs anymore. It's all done. I could
- 19:42do whatever you want. This episode is brought to you
- 19:44by Ketone IQ. If you have been a longtime listener
- 19:48of this podcast, you know I've been studying ketones. for years.
- 19:51Decades ago, DARPA, the same people who invented the internet,
- 19:55asked one question. What is the best brain fuel for
- 19:57a soldier on the battlefield? They landed on ketones, your
- 20:01brain's natural super fuel. The military poured tens of millions
- 20:05of figuring out supplemental ketones. A single serving of this
- 20:09stuff used to cost $ 5, 000. I'm not joking. But the
- 20:14team of Ketone IQ, who are a part of this
- 20:16military program, were the first to bring it to market
- 20:19and cut the cost to just $ 4 a dose. And
- 20:21I'm telling you, this stuff is great. I drank one
- 20:24of these and my brain works on a whole nother level.
- 20:27Go to ketone.com slash rogan for 30% off your subscription order,
- 20:33or find Ketone IQ at Target stores nationwide in the
- 20:37protein and electrolyte aisle and get your first shot free.
- 20:41They're so confident they offer a 60-day money-back guarantee. So
- 20:45go ahead and take your shot.
- 20:47Speaker 2: I think the limitation of that argument is the definition
- 20:50of factory job there. If what was really making people
- 20:54creative and productive, as that story suggests, was just half
- 20:58a million dollars a year from the government to each individual...
- 21:01Then we would see a really incredibly genius, productive, creative
- 21:06portion of humanity that are multigenerational wealth. Have you had
- 21:12somebody sit here who was born into great wealth who
- 21:15showed that they had way more productivity and way more
- 21:17creativity than people that were born in poverty?
- 21:21Speaker 1: No, generally it's people that were born in poverty that
- 21:23have more motivation. Boom.
- 21:26Speaker 2: Yeah. So this promise that we're going to create an
- 21:30AI revolution that's going to give a– what was the
- 21:35term that Elon used?
- 21:36Speaker 1: Universal high income.
- 21:37Speaker 2: Universal high income. Yeah. That sounds like a death sentence
- 21:42to human creativity to me.
- 21:43Speaker 1: Well, it certainly could if people are not taught at
- 21:47a young age how to be motivated by their interests
- 21:49rather than be motivated by money. So you're making the
- 21:52argument for being motivated by money, which is what a
- 21:55lot of people are currently, right? But that doesn't necessarily
- 21:59mean that that's the only way a human can exist.
- 22:02There's a bunch of different tribes all over the world
- 22:04that have a bunch of different customs. They all agree
- 22:06to their customs and those customs are totally different than
- 22:09these customs. We've gotten into the custom of thinking that
- 22:12you work for money and that's what our ideas are
- 22:15based on. And so the idea that money could come
- 22:18along and if you just gave people this money, it
- 22:21would be the death of human creativity. Well, that sounds
- 22:24counterintuitive to what you were saying earlier because like People
- 22:27should be– it's the factory mentality that's taught in schools
- 22:33that's the problem. It's the way they structure it because
- 22:36if you instead say to a child when they're learning
- 22:40things at a young age, you don't have to worry
- 22:42about money. Money is not what's important. What's important is
- 22:45your expression as a human being. Let's figure out what
- 22:48you're interested in. Maybe you're really interested in playing the piano,
- 22:52but you're really interested in paintings. And you're really interested
- 22:55in sports and you're really interested. Find out what you're
- 22:58actually interested in. We're going to teach you how to
- 23:00be better at it and how to be a better person.
- 23:03And we're going to give you a bunch of really
- 23:04interesting facts about life and teach you how to think.
- 23:07And that's what school should be instead of setting people
- 23:10up for factory jobs. So the universal high income concept,
- 23:14if that's used in conjunction with intelligent education, education that's
- 23:19based on this new paradigm that we find ourselves in,
- 23:22that seems like it would be a really good thing.
- 23:26Speaker 2: It'll be a disaster for as long as money is
- 23:28disconnected from life. And so giving somebody a monetary system
- 23:33that does not participate in the formation, creation and co-creation
- 23:38of life will just further distance us from nature. And
- 23:41so this is where we can start to think about
- 23:43like what is money actually. Right. And we can go
- 23:46down that avenue.
- 23:47Speaker 1: So you think like just what about people that live
- 23:49in like hunter-gatherer societies? Do you think that they find
- 23:53purpose in hunting and gathering, right?
- 23:55Speaker 2: They're functioning as the birthright of humanity right there. So
- 23:59I've spent a lot of time with tribes all over
- 24:00the world, from Africa to South America, deep Amazon jungle,
- 24:04everything else. And any time you're with a culture that
- 24:07is still indigenous, meaning all of us are obviously indigenous
- 24:11to the planet. We're all made of her. These are
- 24:13her minerals. This is Mother Earth incarnate in my body.
- 24:17So I'm as indigenous as anybody else. But my culture
- 24:19is horribly degraded in its relationship to nature. And so
- 24:23when we say there's an indigenous culture— these tribes you're
- 24:26speaking to, what we're saying is this is humans that
- 24:29have not lost their context. These are humans that have
- 24:32not become abstract in their value systems or reward systems.
- 24:35And so what they're functioning as there has great evidence
- 24:38is that humans were actually designed to be a keystone
- 24:41species of keystone species. A keystone species is characterized by
- 24:46its capacity to participate in life. Wherever a keystone species
- 24:49sets its foot, there's more biodiversity, more life force, more
- 24:53ecstatic expression of beauty. more intelligence in the natural system.
- 24:57Amazon jungle is the best example of it right now.
- 24:59That is a man-made forest. We have a forest that
- 25:03was designed by hundreds of nations that lived for 40,000
- 25:08years in an ecosystem and planted the largest food forests
- 25:11that the world has ever seen. It is a managed forest,
- 25:14and as the management started to degrade, as those peoples
- 25:17were displaced or lost, the ecosystem was returning back towards nature.
- 25:22you know, a desertification cycle, which is an inevitable process there.
- 25:26So humans in right relationship to nature are keystone species.
- 25:30You can see this with wolves being reintroduced to Yellowstone.
- 25:34You can see it with beavers down in South America.
- 25:36You put white lions back in northern South Africa. You
- 25:39can see it from space. In the territories where keystone
- 25:42species are there, it goes green. The microbiome of the
- 25:44soils increase. The vitality of every plant increases. And so
- 25:48when you're talking about these tribes, you're talking about a
- 25:50human species that's in right relationship. And the moment money
- 25:54comes in as a metric and a value system that's
- 25:57not connected to life, you fracture that system. And I
- 26:00think money is not the cause. I think money is
- 26:02actually a symptom of a humanity that's lost its context
- 26:07of nature and is now way down the pathway of
- 26:09abstract systems, value systems, et cetera.
- 26:11Speaker 1: But this is the case with these people that are
- 26:13in these indigenous tribes that what are they doing? They're
- 26:16trading with people and they're getting money. Like how are
- 26:18they getting money? Are they selling things?
- 26:20Speaker 2: They don't need money.
- 26:21Speaker 1: Right. But how does when you were saying that money
- 26:26gets introduced and ruins it?
- 26:27Speaker 2: It's a symptom downstream. So a good example of.
- 26:30Speaker 1: But what I was getting to, were you saying that
- 26:33it gets in the way of these the tribes? Have
- 26:35you seen it like effect?
- 26:36Speaker 2: Immediately.
- 26:37Speaker 1: Immediately. So what was the that was the question? Like,
- 26:40what was the what was going on? Were they selling
- 26:42their stuff? Were they trading with these people and getting money?
- 26:45How are they getting money?
- 26:48Speaker 2: My new book that's just coming out goes into great
- 26:50detail on the process of abstraction, like how it starts
- 26:53to chip away. But in the book, it talks about
- 26:55my experience with the Ochoa tribe, which is the very
- 26:57last indigenous culture to be introduced to what we'd call
- 27:01industrialized cultures. So First Contact was 1996. Wow. So we're
- 27:06one generation in.
- 27:07Speaker 1: That's crazy.
- 27:09Speaker 2: First Contact. They're in the sacred headwaters of the Amazon
- 27:11just on the border between Ecuador and Peru. deep in
- 27:14the jungle there. And they were the very first indigenous
- 27:17peoples to reach out to make contact. And they made
- 27:21contact in 1996 with Westerners because they, as a peoples,
- 27:26they had, they live in villages that always plateau at 120.
- 27:29As soon as they hit 120 people, the young men
- 27:32are sent out and they start new villages. So they
- 27:34never live in groups more than 120. That has persisted
- 27:38as a very effective way of resilience and human experience
- 27:41for 40,000 years there. And so they started reaching out
- 27:45through dreams and dreamed a group of Westerners into their reality,
- 27:50guided them down the Amazon, everything else through their dream work,
- 27:53and made first contact in 1996 because for a few
- 27:56years they had started to dream the end of the
- 27:59world and realized the world was going to be destroyed
- 28:01by their little brothers who had lost relationship to nature.
- 28:06And so they realized they had to be part of
- 28:08the reconnection process. And if there was going to be
- 28:11a prevention of the great extinction. They were going to
- 28:13have to help their little brothers re-dream their relationship to nature.
- 28:17And so they started inserting themselves into the dreams of
- 28:21groups around the world. And the first ones to come
- 28:24in were traveling with Bill and Lynn Twist. And Lynn
- 28:29Twist was the one who was dreaming their faces and
- 28:32hearing their voices. She was one of the directors of
- 28:36the hunger project globally and was working worldwide to try
- 28:39to stop hunger. And these indigenous faces kept appearing in
- 28:43her dreams.
- 28:43Speaker 1: Wow.
- 28:44Speaker 2: And, uh, the, a friend of hers reached out and said,
- 28:48I think you need to come to the Amazon with me.
- 28:50And she's like, I don't, is there people hungry there?
- 28:51And I know there's no hunger here. You've been eating
- 28:54out of the forest for 40,000 years. She's like, well,
- 28:55I don't belong there. I'm, I'm dealing with Ghana and
- 28:57Africa and India, all the places where people are starving.
- 29:01A few more invitations come and she finally finds herself
- 29:04on a, in a, on a riverboat deep into the Amazon.
- 29:07They have to take a break for a bathroom break.
- 29:10They step out on the banks, and the three faces
- 29:13she's been dreaming come walking out of the woods and say,
- 29:15we've been waiting for you. It's time for contact. Wow.
- 29:23So that was 1996, so we're 30 years out. And
- 29:28the way in which money inserted itself first as an
- 29:31abstract concept was boxed apple juices in the missionary schools
- 29:34that were set up there. And boxed apple juice suddenly
- 29:38disrupted the entire 40,000 year history of provision and abundance
- 29:43that that forest had supplied those peoples. And this high
- 29:47fructose corn syrup in a box with natural flavorings, i.e.
- 29:53potent chemicals to disrupt neurochemistry, was all those children and
- 29:57ultimately their parents needed taste to suddenly break their relationship
- 30:00to nature. Today, they consider themselves impoverished. They are working
- 30:05to try to get gas for their outdoor motors that
- 30:08they never used. They are trying to get more artificial
- 30:12food in and everything else. And so they've got smartphones
- 30:15in the jungle now. They're sending their kids out of
- 30:18the jungles to go to schools, British education systems in
- 30:21the nearby cities. And so it just took 30 years
- 30:25to abstract culture. And this was a culture that had
- 30:28never known poverty, had never known shortage. So much so
- 30:31that one of the most beautiful things that I experienced
- 30:33with them is their houses. They build these epic houses
- 30:36in the jungle. They're huge, 30 foot vaulted ceilings, gorgeous,
- 30:41like outdoor, indoor living, like the best of California. And
- 30:45they've been building these things for 40,000 years and they
- 30:47burn them down every 10 years and build a new one.
- 30:50They have this understanding of the life death cycle of
- 30:54the energy of a house and they don't want the
- 30:57household to be stuck in the same energy it's had
- 30:59the last 10 years. So they see it as this rebirth.
- 31:01You mentioned earlier the cocoon. They go through these rebirth
- 31:05processes for the whole household, the whole home.
- 31:07Speaker 1: And they move. And they've been doing it that way
- 31:09for thousands of years?
- 31:10Speaker 2: Tens of thousands of years. And so the beautiful thing
- 31:13about these houses is there's not a, obviously not a refrigerator,
- 31:16there's not a storage bin for food. They wake up
- 31:19in the morning for 40,000 years, walk outside, and collect
- 31:23what the jungle has for them today. But it wasn't
- 31:25a passive process. It was an active keystone species process.
- 31:29Every family has three different gardens that it maintains at
- 31:33different microecosystems within the forest so that each year, depending
- 31:36on dry season, wet season, whatever's happening that year, one
- 31:39of their gardens is thriving. And so they have, as
- 31:43a peoples, created microecosystems within the Amazon rainforest for tens
- 31:49of thousands of years to the point that it now
- 31:51holds the most biodiversity per meter of any other ecosystem
- 31:54in the world, really. And so we are this magnificent creature.
- 31:59But if you break our relationship for a moment to
- 32:02our natural system, then the immediate thing that shows up
- 32:05before money shows up, poverty shows up. And my book
- 32:08goes into some details like what are the different geometries
- 32:11of wealth and poverty? They actually hold their own security
- 32:16as their own kind of sovereign geometries within human behavior
- 32:20and human minds. And what you see with poverty is
- 32:24this instant reinforcement of a deep, deep human wound that
- 32:27must be our one shared original wound, which is we
- 32:31were abandoned by nature. And the moment you believe any
- 32:34aspect of that or have anything suggest that nature was
- 32:39holding back from us, nature wasn't giving us. You taste
- 32:42that boxed apple juice, that high fructose corn syrup, and
- 32:45the brain is me like, ah, I knew there was
- 32:47something better than nature. I knew there was something better
- 32:50because the neurochemistry lights up. That boxed apple juice is
- 32:54just like cocaine on the frontal lobe. And it's a
- 32:57bizarre thing that high fructose corn syrup is a bizarre thing.
- 33:00And it's just so perfectly exemplary of everything else we're
- 33:04doing as humans because high fructose corn syrup is the
- 33:07exact same molecule as fructose, which is the main sugar
- 33:10and not just apples. Most of the fruit that the
- 33:12Ochoa have been eating for all these tens of thousands
- 33:14of years. But it's flipped. It is the mirror image
- 33:18of the actual molecule of fructose. And that does not
- 33:20occur in nature. And so they chemically flipped the molecule
- 33:24with chemical processing. And the moment you flip that molecule over,
- 33:27the liver cannot understand it as a carbohydrate. It now
- 33:31has to process it as an inflammatory triglyceride. And so
- 33:36instead of turning it into a sugar, it turns it
- 33:37into this aberration of a fat. And in the bloodstream,
- 33:41that now causes cardiovascular disease, downstream inflammation of the brain.
- 33:45major depression, anxiety disorders, all kinds of things start emerging
- 33:49because you just flipped reality in a mirror.
- 33:51Speaker 1: How did they flip it? What did they do?
- 33:53Speaker 2: It's chemical treatment. And so the chemical process is called
- 33:58a racemic. And so a racemic is the chemical name
- 34:01for the mirror image of a molecule. And so you
- 34:04can basically create chemical reactions that will create the mirror
- 34:07image of the molecule. And so the high fructose corn
- 34:09syrup is a processed food where you're taking– normal fructose,
- 34:13and flipping the molecule through a racemic chemical process.
- 34:17Speaker 1: And why did they first start doing that?
- 34:18Speaker 2: Because you can patent a molecule that doesn't exist in nature.
- 34:22And so they created a quote-unquote artificial sweetener, which is
- 34:26actually a profound way in which you can start to
- 34:30understand how we did everything in the pharmaceutical industry. We
- 34:33find plant compounds and we flip them around so that
- 34:36they're non-natural, not native to the body, and now we
- 34:39can patent them and we can commercialize them. Right. you know,
- 34:42I'm not damning somebody else. This is me. I was
- 34:46at the height of my career, 17 years in academia.
- 34:49I was creating chemotherapy. And so I was, you know,
- 34:52getting paid as a medical doctor to sit in labs
- 34:55every day with cancer cells and try to poison them.
- 34:58And what I found in the end was a family
- 35:01of molecules that didn't require any poisoning of the cell.
- 35:04They actually nourished the cell. And that's where my career
- 35:07pivoted hard was the sudden realization of like, why are
- 35:11we trying to poison these cancer cells. And I think
- 35:14this is where we can begin to like back up together.
- 35:17But I want to go back to a really important
- 35:19point that you held earlier, because I don't want to,
- 35:22when I say everything is perfect, because it is, I
- 35:25don't want to diminish the amount of suffering we're in.
- 35:27The amount of suffering the sociopath is in, who's going
- 35:30to be so extremely divorced from its natural system that
- 35:35it will think it reasonable to kill and behead somebody else.
- 35:39That sociopath we can look at as the great problem
- 35:42with humans. Humans would be just fine if we didn't
- 35:45have sociopaths. That was how I was trained as a
- 35:48biologist and a medical doctor. I was trained to believe
- 35:51that if there just wasn't cancer cells, we'd all be healthy.
- 35:55We'd all live long if there just wasn't cancer. And
- 35:58what I discovered over time, which is anybody who spends
- 36:0217 years looking through microscopes down in the beauty and
- 36:05miraculous nature of biology, is going to find this. But
- 36:09in the end, you find out that a cancer cell
- 36:11is actually no invader at all. It's actually the loneliest
- 36:15cell in a human body. And so a human cell
- 36:19that loses connection and communication with its surrounding environment immediately
- 36:23takes on the traits of a cancer cell. The longer
- 36:26it's isolated, the more malignant it becomes. The word malignant
- 36:31means life-threatening. And I would offer you that the sociopath
- 36:36is exactly the same story It's just one human cell
- 36:39that became so isolated that it became malignant in its
- 36:42behavior to life around it. And the moment my world
- 36:46switched is when I started feeding those isolated, lonely cancer
- 36:51cells instead of trying to kill them, instead of trying
- 36:53to poison it, instead of trying to isolate it from
- 36:55the system. And then what happened was beautiful is they
- 36:57actually reconnected or they self-eliminated. And so if they had
- 37:02enough metabolic capacity left at that moment, they could repair, regenerate,
- 37:06and reconnect to the greater system and they would never
- 37:08threaten life. If they were too damaged and could not
- 37:11create enough energy for life at that moment, they would
- 37:14go through this gentle process called apoptosis, which is a
- 37:17dissolving of the cell. And a stem cell would be
- 37:19called in, put down a brand new healthy cell in
- 37:22its place. And so when we stop looking at cancers
- 37:26or sociopaths as the one problem with a otherwise healthy
- 37:30human system, We're going to realize we don't have a
- 37:33healthy human system. All of these things, the sociopath and
- 37:37the cancer, are long-derived symptoms of a declining metabolic life force.
- 37:44And that's where I think I can help you back up.
- 37:47Speaker 1: Yeah, I hear what you're saying. So in a utopian world,
- 37:50no one is ever raised in a way that would
- 37:52create a psychopath. In a utopian world, children are raised
- 37:56with love and understanding always. And then you never get
- 38:00the sociopaths and the psychopaths. So in a utopian world,
- 38:04in a perfect world, that's true. But humans are– one
- 38:08of the really cool things about us is we're not perfect.
- 38:11We're very messy. So you're never going to have great
- 38:14parenting across the board if you have human freedom. You're
- 38:17never going to have people that don't lie. You're never
- 38:19going to have people that don't steal. You're always going
- 38:21to have violence as long as you have human freedom
- 38:24because people are not going to be good at raising people.
- 38:26And some people are going to get raised angry and
- 38:29they're going to– it's– Unless we change what a person is,
- 38:33unless we all just do mushrooms together and kumbaya it
- 38:36all together, we're still people. And the problem with people
- 38:40is there's never been a single time in human history
- 38:43where we've been a people with no war. Not one.
- 38:49Not one.
- 38:51Speaker 2: There was one.
- 38:52Speaker 1: When?
- 38:53Speaker 2: King Solomon.
- 38:54Speaker 1: King Solomon?
- 38:55Speaker 2: During King Solomon's reign, the whole world went into peace.
- 38:57Speaker 1: What year was this? One generation.
- 38:58Speaker 2: One generation. This would have been years after David, so
- 39:07it must be about 2,400 years ago or something like that.
- 39:08Speaker 1: So how would we even know that there weren't wars
- 39:11in Morocco at the time that they didn't hear about
- 39:15or that there weren't wars in Australia or there weren't wars?
- 39:19How do we know? How do we know that there
- 39:21weren't wars so long ago?
- 39:24Speaker 2: But King Solomon kept one of the best stories of
- 39:27humankind alive during that time.
- 39:28Speaker 1: I'm sure he did, but what you– was this?
- 39:31Speaker 2: I'd be inaccurate if I said it precisely, but I
- 39:34think King David would have been about 2,400 years ago,
- 39:36so somewhere in that range.
- 39:37Speaker 1: What is the odds that he knows what's going on
- 39:40in China? Zero.
- 39:42Speaker 2: Zero.
- 39:42Speaker 1: 2,400 years ago? This is no 5G. You're not going
- 39:47on Twitter and finding out what's happening in China. There's
- 39:49no way he could know if there's war somewhere else.
- 39:51Speaker 2: There was a technology beyond all of that sitting on
- 39:54the planet at that time. What was that? Pyramids. Hold on.
- 39:59Speaker 1: So you think that they used the pyramids to find
- 40:03out if there's war in China?
- 40:05Speaker 2: I think that we had a technology called a human
- 40:08body at the time that was fully used. And we
- 40:11were fully telepathic. Maybe not this recent, but certainly further back, 10,000, 12,000
- 40:18years ago, we were communicating much differently.
- 40:21Speaker 1: Do you think people have an innate telepathic ability that's
- 40:25kind of muted a little bit by language and by
- 40:29talking in media? And then if we went back to
- 40:32the earliest stages of intelligence, we kind of read each
- 40:37other's minds. And then we realized that's kind of messy.
- 40:41Wouldn't it be better if we just talked? I'll just
- 40:44tell you what I think. I don't want to let
- 40:45you in. And then we wrote things down. So when
- 40:49you write things down, you can read other people's thoughts.
- 40:52But before words, I bet we didn't think in those terms.
- 40:58I bet we thought in terms of what is that.
- 41:00There's a tree. There's a person. There's a deer. This
- 41:02is how we have to do this. Without words, there's
- 41:05probably an understanding of what we're saying and feeling. That's
- 41:10probably why you get weird feelings from certain people. You're like, hmm,
- 41:15I don't know about this guy. You're feeling something. There's
- 41:18something there. You just don't know how to measure it.
- 41:21Speaker 2: I think you are spot on. You could have written
- 41:23my book for me. So there's a whole chapter in
- 41:26this book.
- 41:26Speaker 1: That's definitely not true.
- 41:28Speaker 2: There's a whole chapter in there that gives an 80,000-year
- 41:31look at human communication from this point of wide-open frequency
- 41:36bandwidth of telepathic communication down to text messages. And so
- 41:41there's a linear decline that happens through these different steps
- 41:44to the more and more abstract ways of communicating. And
- 41:47when we stop feeling each other and we started, like
- 41:50you say, you begin with tonal language before there's words.
- 41:53You start to create tones that are representative, but you're
- 41:55still giving a full sense. This is like me singing
- 41:58an opera to you instead of like giving you a speech.
- 42:01And so tonal language was giving us a full body
- 42:03experience where you're listening beyond your auditory. The spoken word
- 42:07was where we suddenly went straight to the mind. We
- 42:10were no longer using the technology of the human body
- 42:12and I was just going to speak. And this improved
- 42:14efficiency very quickly. So this was the beginning of machine-like
- 42:17behavior where we could stop feeling the body and we
- 42:19could start mentally processing information. The brain jumped in size
- 42:23and we started going through all of this iterations of
- 42:26efficiency and optimization maybe is the way in which we
- 42:30create empire. We create more control, more wealth, whatever we
- 42:33were doing at the time. But there was these advantages
- 42:36that looked good as we went from tonal to spoken word,
- 42:41from spoken word to written word, from written word to
- 42:45digital representations of words down to emojis.
- 42:49Speaker 1: Yeah, Jamie thinks emojis are the next hieroglyphs. I think
- 42:53he's right. I think he's got something there. Right? If
- 42:56they get real good. I mean, it's kind of hieroglyphs.
- 42:59It's kind of similar.
- 43:00Speaker 2: It's kind of similar. I would say that. But it's
- 43:02the end of abstraction. So hieroglyphs. actually carry the information
- 43:06in the form. And so the form of those shapes,
- 43:10now we've, you know, some of the greatest minds on
- 43:13the earth are starting to recognize that if you draw
- 43:16one of those shapes and show it to a human mind,
- 43:18it creates an incredible medical response. You can reverse inflammation,
- 43:22all kinds of things by looking at the shape because
- 43:25the shape is creating a waveform.
- 43:27Speaker 1: Looking at the shape of certain hieroglyphs?
- 43:29Speaker 2: Yeah, the shapes that are in Egyptian hieroglyphs are now
- 43:33being used to to really change human biology. We're realizing
- 43:36it was, it was not a symbolic representation of something.
- 43:39It was a full transmission of information.
- 43:43Speaker 1: Is there papers written on this?
- 43:46Speaker 2: So Ibrahim is, uh, one of the greatest minds out there.
- 43:49He's out of Egypt, Cairo, Egypt, and he's in his
- 43:53eighties now. Um, and I'm going to connect you with
- 43:55him cause you'd love to have him on the, on
- 43:56the show. But he has been hired by large, you know,
- 44:01groups and now Switzerland has hired him now to recode
- 44:03their 5G network with these shapes to improve biology and
- 44:08life around the 5G network, which I think is the
- 44:10future of technologies. Technology is not bad. Technology is not
- 44:14integrated in natural systems. And so Ibrahim is showing us
- 44:17this pathway to understanding how these original shapes that are
- 44:21represented within a lot of the hieroglyphs and things like
- 44:23that in Egypt, but also really embedded in the actual
- 44:26technology of the pyramids. It was a method of communication
- 44:30that was beyond the human mind, beyond– it was a
- 44:34life force, a transmission.
- 44:35Speaker 1: So it was doing something to you while you're understanding
- 44:40the context of what the hieroglyphics is trying to communicate.
- 44:43It's actually having a physiological experience. And anybody will have
- 44:47this physiological experience even if you don't understand the context?
- 44:50Speaker 2: There's no understanding involved. OK.
- 44:51Speaker 1: So you just go there, stare at these things and
- 44:54it reduces inflammation?
- 44:55Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 44:56Speaker 1: Is there anything on that online? Can we find something? Jamie,
- 44:59how dare you laugh at that? But go deep, son.
- 45:04Speaker 2: I did.
- 45:05Speaker 1: Put on the waders. I tried everything and it said
- 45:07there's no link, but I'm looking harder. Do you know
- 45:09of a good resource where we could find a link
- 45:12to something like this? Because I'd like to know how
- 45:13they measure the inflammation. I'm not opposed to believing that
- 45:17it's possible.
- 45:17Speaker 2: Just look up Ibrahim Karim.
- 45:23Speaker 1: This is his quote. It says, when two energy fields
- 45:26are in resonance and exchange information, something happens after the
- 45:29resonance is over. The two systems do not go back
- 45:32to their original state. A sort of vibrational impregnation occurs,
- 45:37which means that part of the new information leaves an
- 45:39imprint on the energy system. Systems then are in constant
- 45:43evolution through resonance or interaction. Well, that certainly seems to
- 45:48be what people are.
- 45:50Speaker 2: Perfect.
- 45:51Speaker 1: It's a perfect, that whole system is, that description is
- 45:56a perfect description of human beings.
- 45:59Speaker 2: I completely agree.
- 46:00Speaker 1: Which is why it's so important to be around positive
- 46:03people and happy people. It's like really good for you.
- 46:06Being around shitheads is terrible for you. And terrible for
- 46:09them too because they're not attracting any nice people because–
- 46:12and then they're going to continue that behavior. They're stuck.
- 46:15But that's fascinating.
- 46:17Speaker 2: Are you contributing your brain to medical science?
- 46:22Speaker 1: Have you– Am I contributing it? In what manner?
- 46:25Speaker 2: I think it would be very interesting to study you.
- 46:28Speaker 1: I would be?
- 46:29Speaker 2: So there's a word that really captures the living force
- 46:33out of that quote from Abraham and– It's a word
- 46:36called biosis. And so the word biosis means and refers
- 46:40to the interconnected relationships that make life possible. Your mind
- 46:47is one of the funnest things to watch. And that's
- 46:49why everybody watches. Because you come in with a curiosity,
- 46:53which I think is the real key to being human.
- 46:56You looked at that and you immediately said that's what
- 46:58being human is. two energy fields that can impregnate each other.
- 47:02Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 47:03Speaker 2: This podcast has been a 16-year impregnation inspired by your curiosity.
- 47:10Speaker 1: Well, it's impregnated me as well. It's not like I'm
- 47:13the one who.
- 47:13Speaker 2: That's my point.
- 47:14Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 47:14Speaker 2: That's my point is you have made yourself available to
- 47:17over and over again be impregnated. You are making your
- 47:21whole body system available to new information. And a lot
- 47:25of people that are in here aren't like measured as
- 47:28the smartest people on the planet and they're not measured
- 47:30as the nicest people on the planet. You keep attracting
- 47:34to yourself the ones that are going to challenge your
- 47:37biology to stretch more, to grow more. You want to
- 47:40grow so much that you created this whole system for yourself.
- 47:44I'm intrigued by that soul. I'm intrigued by somebody that
- 47:48would magnetize 100 million people to themselves, not so that
- 47:52you can impress other people, but so you can receive
- 47:55that much information that Ibrahim is talking about.
- 47:57Speaker 1: Well, it's not intentional. It was never on purpose. The
- 48:01podcast was just for fun. I don't think we made
- 48:04money on it for years. It was just fun. It
- 48:07was just fun to do. And in the beginning, it
- 48:09was just talking with my friends.
- 48:12Speaker 2: Why would that be separate from purpose?
- 48:14Speaker 1: Well, I mean, it was purposeful in that it was
- 48:17recreational and it was a community thing with our friends.
- 48:21We would enjoy it because we always enjoyed doing like
- 48:24morning radio together. We said it would be fun. The
- 48:26technology exists now. We can kind of do this on
- 48:29the internet. And then we had Graham Hancock on. So
- 48:32my friend Duncan and I sat down with Graham Hancock,
- 48:35which was– how many years ago was that? Was that
- 48:3715 years ago? Yeah, it would have been 2011 I think.
- 48:41Probably like 15 years ago. So he was the first–
- 48:43I believe he was the first– it was either him
- 48:45or Anthony Bourdain were the first real guest. I think
- 48:48it was Graham. And all of a sudden now because
- 48:53of this show– I can have people on and ask questions.
- 48:56And I had already read Fingerprints of the Gods, and
- 48:58I was a huge Graham Hancock fan. And all my
- 49:00friends that studied actual history in college were always very
- 49:05offended by my ideas that I would repeat.
- 49:07Speaker 2: From time to time.
- 49:08Speaker 1: That guy's a charlatan. Shut the fuck up. And I'd
- 49:11be like, I think he's right. I think he's got
- 49:13some points. So he was our first real guest. And
- 49:16then from then, I realized that I could get guests
- 49:18because the numbers started going. getting more and more people
- 49:21were watching it. So I was like, oh, so now
- 49:23I can just ask all these– like I got Neil
- 49:25deGrasse Tyson on. I got all these different people on.
- 49:28I was like, this guy seems interesting. Like what does
- 49:30he do? Like I had knife makers on and I've
- 49:33had beekeepers on. It's just like– it's just to me
- 49:36it's a crazy opportunity to talk to fascinating people. And
- 49:40I would love to do that even if it wasn't
- 49:42a job. If I knew that three or four times
- 49:45a week, even if it wasn't a job, no one
- 49:48ever watched it. And I could just have a conversation
- 49:50with an interesting person for a couple hours just sitting
- 49:53across the table. So how did you start doing this?
- 49:55And just pick their brain and find out, like, what's
- 49:59their motivation? Like, what gets them excited? Why do they
- 50:02like that kind of music? Like, why did you pick
- 50:04that up? You know, what fascinates you about that? Like,
- 50:08do you ever lose ambition? Do you ever, like, What
- 50:10goes on in your head? And I think somewhere along
- 50:14the line, I've realized that I'm kind of like an
- 50:17antenna for all these other people and that as long
- 50:23as it's pure in my mind, right, as long as
- 50:27I'm only talking to people that I'm actually interested in
- 50:30talking to. So there's no one who decides who is
- 50:34on the show but me. There's no– executives that have
- 50:38discussions there's no board meetings there's nothing there's nothing it's
- 50:42my phone and I just I just go that guy
- 50:45seems cool like or what is she talking about that's
- 50:48nuts like is that real oh my god how did
- 50:50she figure that out come on in and that's the
- 50:54whole way I've always done it and I feel like
- 50:56as long as I just do it that way then
- 50:59people are getting they're getting a chance to experience it
- 51:03with me because I'm being I'm just being me right
- 51:07And which is I personally get great satisfaction out of
- 51:12watching people do things that they enjoy, even if I
- 51:14have no interest in those things. Like if I see
- 51:17a guy who's like making cabinets and he's like really
- 51:20into the polishing and the sanding, you can tell like
- 51:23this guy's work is– he's very proud of his work.
- 51:26He makes those seams nice and tight and sands it
- 51:28all down and I'm watching him polish it and I'm
- 51:31watching him put the stain on. I'm like, wow, that
- 51:33guy made that with his hands. And he steps back
- 51:36and he's polishing it with a microfiber cloth. And I
- 51:39love that. I love when people are into things. I
- 51:41love when people are fixing engines. I love when someone's
- 51:43really into painting. I love people being into things. So
- 51:47I'm an antenna for people that are really into things.
- 51:51Speaker 2: I think that's exactly what Ibrahim was just describing in
- 51:54that quote. We are antenna and we are receiving information
- 51:57all the time. And the reason why it's so exciting
- 52:00to be human is because our antenna has got a
- 52:03broader– aperture to receive information than any other creature on
- 52:09earth so far.
- 52:09Speaker 1: And then ever before, as far as we know on
- 52:12this planet, at least. Yeah. But the pyramids, I want
- 52:14to go back to that because, um, I don't know
- 52:18if this is the smartest and the most advanced people
- 52:21have ever been. I don't think it is. I really don't.
- 52:23I think the pyramids are the perfect example of why
- 52:26we should question that, that narrative. Uh, you know, we
- 52:30want to put that in that place into a nice
- 52:32cute little box and And all due respect to traditional archaeologists,
- 52:37but you really can't. It's not physically possible to put
- 52:42that place that supposedly was made 2,500 BC. That's the guess.
- 52:49It's really kind of a guess because there's no hieroglyphs.
- 52:52Speaker 2: Doesn't carbonate well that way.
- 52:54Speaker 1: There's no hieroglyphs at all about the construction of it.
- 52:56They don't show how they made it. They don't know
- 52:59what the fuck it was. They don't know why it
- 53:01has so much erosion in certain areas. They don't know
- 53:03why it's been built on– there's other structures that are
- 53:05built on top of older structures that are even more complex.
- 53:09Like it makes no sense. It makes no sense. It
- 53:12just makes no sense. When you're moving enormous statues that
- 53:17are a thousand tons, how? How did you do that?
- 53:22How did you get that thing? How did you move
- 53:24it 400 miles? What the fuck are you guys doing?
- 53:27You're doing something we can't do right now. As cocky
- 53:29as we want to be, we don't have machines to
- 53:32do that right now. So why would we believe that
- 53:37they were primitive? Why would we believe that they were
- 53:39commensurate with the rest of what we think the world
- 53:42was 4,500 years ago? Because that's crazy. It makes no sense.
- 53:47That alone, just Egypt alone, it's like, What were those
- 53:50people in Africa doing? Because whatever the fuck they were doing,
- 53:53it's above and beyond anything anyone's doing right now. 2,300,000
- 54:00stones that perfectly aligned a true north, south, east and west. How?
- 54:05Speaker 2: Biology.
- 54:06Speaker 1: Biology.
- 54:08Speaker 2: It had to be a living system that would create
- 54:11something that intelligent. The reason why we can't build them
- 54:14today is we keep trying to invent machines to do
- 54:17our work. biology is what did it and Ibrahim sitting
- 54:21there in Cairo, Egypt right now will tell you the
- 54:23way that they built these things was through waveform and
- 54:26the antenna and not just for receiving transmission that created
- 54:31the energy to create the pyramids was coming from bodies,
- 54:34not machines.
- 54:34Speaker 1: But they certainly had some machines because there's these core
- 54:38drills that they find that they don't understand how they
- 54:42could have ever had something that moved at those RPMs
- 54:45to make those kind of circles. It's drilling into this
- 54:48insanely hard granite, like there's some technology involved. Water.
- 54:53Speaker 2: Water. Biology and water together. So biology is ultimately carbon
- 54:58and water. It is a massive energetic potential that survives
- 55:04and concentrates between the magic of carbon and water. I
- 55:08would love to show you a couple slides of where
- 55:10I think we are as humans because you just uncovered
- 55:12the most important reality is let's keep very strong anchor
- 55:16in the fact that human biology, we can call them humans,
- 55:19we can call them Egyptians, we can call them whatever
- 55:21we want. But there was people of our size and
- 55:24our scale that were doing things on the planet very recently, 5,000, 10,000
- 55:28years ago. Those Ochoa have been doing their thing in
- 55:30the jungle for 40,000 years. So this is recent history.
- 55:34This isn't some like figment of our imagination that King
- 55:36Solomon's right in that timeframe. We have written history just
- 55:41after this time period, but there was an amnesia event.
- 55:43There was something that happened globally where we lost connection.
- 55:47We lost the signal around 5,000 to 7,000 years ago globally.
- 55:51Peoples all over the earth suddenly got disconnected from their intelligence,
- 55:55and we see this massive event of loss of life
- 55:57or disappearance of life. So you have the Aztecs and Mayans, Incas.
- 56:02You got all these– Systems that had been thousands of
- 56:05years building incredibly complex underground labyrinths that go for tens
- 56:09of thousands of kilometers or things that we can't even
- 56:13wrap our heads around right now was being done all
- 56:15over the world, not just in Cairo, Egypt. The pyramids
- 56:19off the coast of Japan are way bigger than what
- 56:21was going on in Egypt. And so we had pyramids
- 56:23all over the freaking planet that were technologies that were
- 56:27concentrating energy. And I can– I'm going to go back
- 56:30to my own lived experience here so we're not like
- 56:32philosophically– getting into any space that starts to sound woo-woo.
- 56:36I want to ground this back.
- 56:40Speaker 1: Too late. We're woo-woo, bro. We're on woo-woo Maine. We're
- 56:44on Main.
- 56:45Speaker 2: Street in woo-woo-ville.
- 56:46Speaker 1: We're running red lights, son.
- 56:49Speaker 2: Let's go. Let's go. That's my favorite thing to do.
- 56:52As long as I'm not 55 Chevy behind the wheel.
- 56:55Speaker 1: I can tell you like running red lights in woo-woo-ville.
- 56:59I want to bring you back because you said something
- 57:00and I have to understand what you were saying. And
- 57:02you said biology and water. So clearly they had tools, right?
- 57:08So clearly they're using a tool to make these cores
- 57:12out of the granite.
- 57:14Speaker 2: So I want to back up. I think we just
- 57:17need to contextualize life because we get into the risk
- 57:20of like starting to core down on that idea and
- 57:22that idea and that idea. And we can't find our context.
- 57:26So if we contextualize this conversation, what life is, then
- 57:30we can get to pyramids. Then we can get to
- 57:32UFOs and UAPs and everything else that's going on right
- 57:35now that's starting to force us to be like, wait,
- 57:37we don't have the whole story. And so this is
- 57:40my favorite thing about being live right now is there's
- 57:41just too much evidence that the story that we've been
- 57:44taught in schools is correct. It's just falling apart now.
- 57:48Speaker 1: Yeah, it's falling apart.
- 57:48Speaker 2: That's exciting. But the reason why we have things rushing
- 57:52into this space as new solutions that are just distracting
- 57:56us from actually stepping into our full potency is because
- 58:00we still are not allowing context to come back. And
- 58:02so I would love to contextualize the conversation first.
- 58:05Speaker 1: Okay.
- 58:06Speaker 2: And then let's go down these.
- 58:07Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 58:07Speaker 2: Okay. If you've got that first slide of mine, we
- 58:11can start at the most fundamental level of understanding what
- 58:15life is. And this took me. 25 years of basic
- 58:19science laboratory work to finally get my mind clear and
- 58:23out of the way to what you said, be the
- 58:25antenna for the information. What is it trying to show us?
- 58:29And ultimately, when you look across these images across this
- 58:32top of the slide, we've got the sun up top.
- 58:35The sun is the most potent energetic thing that physics does.
- 58:39It's nuclear and fission and fusion. And these things we
- 58:42call stars. And there's roughly 10 billion stars per galaxy.
- 58:47We've got somewhere around 2.5 trillion galaxies. So there's a
- 58:51lot of energy being pumped out in the universe by
- 58:53a sun. But that little innovation just to its right
- 58:56at the top is chlorophyll. And chlorophyll begins a process
- 59:00of concentration of light energy. And so this is where
- 59:03we start to see more light per cubic centimeter than
- 59:07nuclear fission and fusion can produce. They can then pass
- 59:10that information in the form of energy onto bacteria and fungi.
- 59:15Bacteria and fungi then support more green life. And so
- 59:18we go from moss and slime molds to trees eventually.
- 59:23And so there's this constant feedback loop of concentrations of
- 59:26energy The more energy per cubic centimeter you have, the
- 59:30more opportunity you have for communication. The word biosis, again,
- 59:35refers to the interconnected relationships that make life possible. If
- 59:40you've been in a long-term relationship before, like longer than
- 59:42a weekend, you got a sense of how much energy
- 59:47it takes to maintain a relationship. There's nothing you do
- 59:50in life that takes more energy than maintaining a family
- 59:53and your spouse and kids or whatever you got around you.
- 59:56That's because communication is required for co-collaboration, co-creation. And so
- 1:00:03energy has to be concentrated at higher and higher, higher
- 1:00:07levels for life to do more and more and more
- 1:00:09complex things. A couple billion years ago on the planet,
- 1:00:12we have evidence that bacteria and fungi made their transition.
- 1:00:15So bacteria, single-celled organisms, suddenly gave an increase in concentration
- 1:00:22through an innovation of doing fermentation outside of the body.
- 1:00:25So bacteria ferment carbohydrates and fats. They use a non-oxygen-related
- 1:00:32breakdown process to break carbon bonds. All of that sunlight
- 1:00:35is being stored in carbon. And so one carbon bonds
- 1:00:39to the next, storing a photon of electromagnetic energy between them.
- 1:00:43That's a carbon bond. So when you hear of a carbohydrate,
- 1:00:47that's a whole string of carbons that's storing sunlight. A
- 1:00:51fatty acid, another long string of carbons holding sunlight. So
- 1:00:55the innovation of life was, can we store enough energy
- 1:00:58that it can be released in these exponential levels of
- 1:01:03energy per cubic centimeter? And the more that life innovated
- 1:01:06that process, the more complex life got. So bacteria, single-celled organisms,
- 1:01:10can't really collaborate, but they can build an ecosystem of nutrients.
- 1:01:15Fungi figured out that they could actually get way more
- 1:01:17fermentation if they exuded the enzymes out of their body
- 1:01:21to make the whole nature around them the stomach. And
- 1:01:24so they outsourced the fermentation process to the soil around them.
- 1:01:29And suddenly there was so much more energy available. So
- 1:01:31they started to build whole networks of single-celled organisms that
- 1:01:35were now collaborating. We call these hyphae and pseudophyphae, the
- 1:01:38mycelial network of the fungal kingdom. They can go for
- 1:01:41miles and they're still single-celled organisms, but they're collaborating now
- 1:01:45because they have so much more energy because they're doing
- 1:01:47all that fermentation outside the body. So they're not limited
- 1:01:49to what can be done inside the cell. The next
- 1:01:53innovation that just blew everything out was the innovation of mitochondria.
- 1:01:57So that little mitochondria represented up in that glowing cell
- 1:02:00right above the baby there. Mitochondria are small bacteria that
- 1:02:03live inside human cells. The average human cell has 200 mitochondria.
- 1:02:07A neuron has 2,000 mitochondria in its neural head. 2,000
- 1:02:12of those little bacteria living inside of a human cell.
- 1:02:15And that's actually two microbes put into one. So it's
- 1:02:18a little tiny methane-producing bacterium that was swallowed by an archaea,
- 1:02:22a big bacteria. And they started collaborating in a big
- 1:02:25innovation that was respiratory energy production. So we suddenly added
- 1:02:29oxygen and hydrogen to the process that used to be fermentation.
- 1:02:33So now we have respiratory energy production in the form
- 1:02:36of mitochondria. And that was a 10x improvement in energy,
- 1:02:40light energy per cubic centimeter. And then we suddenly got
- 1:02:43multicellular life. And so it was protozoa into parasites, into nematodes,
- 1:02:47into worms, into everything we have. So life has been
- 1:02:51stacking in complexity with direct relationship of how much energy
- 1:02:55per cubic centimeter exists there. The energy is predicting the outcome.
- 1:03:00It's not some organism comes along and says, well, I'm
- 1:03:03going to take over because I'm smarter and more connected.
- 1:03:07Every time we've seen an innovation in nature, it's because
- 1:03:10preceding that moment, there was an innovation in increasing the
- 1:03:13amount of Biosis, the amount of interconnected relationships inside a
- 1:03:16single organism. Eventually, you get to a human. A human
- 1:03:20has more life within it than any other niche of
- 1:03:23nature on this planet. Amazon jungle, coral reefs, any other mammal.
- 1:03:28The human colon and the body systems around it contain
- 1:03:31more biodiversity, more interconnected relationships than any other system on
- 1:03:35the planet. This is more biosis, more life, more energy
- 1:03:39per cubic centimeter. And what we get to start to
- 1:03:41recognize now as our neurobiology of the gut starts to
- 1:03:44work through our levels of understanding, we're starting to realize
- 1:03:47there is no such thing as human intelligence. There's a
- 1:03:50human brain that is an antenna for all of nature
- 1:03:53to speak to. And so we have the most complicated
- 1:03:57antenna system of any organism on Earth. And just 10
- 1:04:01minutes ago, you sat there saying, you know, I think
- 1:04:02I'm actually an antenna. So this is the process that
- 1:04:07takes to great life. And 70 years ago, we started
- 1:04:10a new era of humanity called the antibiotic era. And
- 1:04:13it innovated with penicillin in the 1940s. But then it
- 1:04:16became herbicides and pesticides and took us into a massive
- 1:04:19journey of destroying biosis. The word antibiotic is truth in advertising.
- 1:04:26To be antibiosis, to be antibiotic, is to be against,
- 1:04:31to disrupt, to destroy the interconnected relationships that make life possible.
- 1:04:35And so if this is right, which... I don't expect
- 1:04:38you to believe yet, but if this is right, I
- 1:04:40should be able to map to you the exact way
- 1:04:43in which we've landed at this moment, which is at
- 1:04:45the crippled point of human biology, globally, chronic disease, epidemics, infertility,
- 1:04:51threatening the very survival of our species. So I'm going
- 1:04:53to take you through the last 50 years and look
- 1:04:55at the human race just as a metabolic framework. And
- 1:04:59we'll see if we can make some sense out of it.
- 1:05:00Speaker 1: Okay, let's do it. I like it. Um, it is, uh,
- 1:05:06Very fascinating that we've gotten to where we are right
- 1:05:08now and that we know as much as we know.
- 1:05:11And yet we still are doing things like extensive use
- 1:05:15of pesticides and herbicides and even when they're not necessary,
- 1:05:19like the drying of wheat with it, which is crazy.
- 1:05:22Like you're not even using it for its intended purpose.
- 1:05:26You're using it as a desiccator so you can dry
- 1:05:29out the wheat and process it quicker. What the fuck
- 1:05:32are you doing? And then you're poisoning people unnecessarily because
- 1:05:34of this.
- 1:05:36Speaker 2: See, this is why I love being with you, Joe,
- 1:05:38is because, like, you say the things that I wish
- 1:05:40I would be able to say the last 40 years.
- 1:05:42Speaker 1: That way?
- 1:05:44Speaker 2: That's all I really want to tell the EPA when
- 1:05:46I testify.
- 1:05:46Speaker 1: In front of the government. We're crazy. Well, someone probably
- 1:05:49should have someone like me do it. I'm not the guy,
- 1:05:51but someone should say it that way because that's really
- 1:05:54what it is. Like, you're poisoning people. And the really
- 1:05:57nutty thing is the reason why they didn't do the
- 1:06:01ban on glyphosate because it would have a devastating impact
- 1:06:07on our society, on our economy, because all these businesses
- 1:06:12would close and go under, and they would lose billions
- 1:06:14and billions of dollars. Think of that. Think of where
- 1:06:17we are right now, where our food supply relies on
- 1:06:22poison to function. If we take the poison out, it
- 1:06:26can't function. I don't know what to tell you, but
- 1:06:29there's only one way to do it. We have to
- 1:06:32poison you. That is really wild that anybody would accept that.
- 1:06:37I mean you could have all your fucking lobbyists. Everyone
- 1:06:40sits in front of those microphones with notes and they
- 1:06:44all have some preposterous way of framing it. But that's
- 1:06:47really what it is. You're saying the food supply relies
- 1:06:52on poison. And if we take away the poison, we'll
- 1:06:55fall apart.
- 1:06:57Speaker 2: That's actually true.
- 1:06:59Speaker 1: That's crazy.
- 1:07:00Speaker 2: But let me show you why. Because it's not actually
- 1:07:02the food system that's about to fall apart. It's the
- 1:07:06medical system. Oh. And so the thing that relies on
- 1:07:10chemical food is not the money we're making from food systems.
- 1:07:13It's the money we're making from the medical system.
- 1:07:15Speaker 1: Well, isn't it both?
- 1:07:17Speaker 2: Isn't it?
- 1:07:18Speaker 1: It's got to be both. It's got to be both.
- 1:07:19Because I know for a fact the pesticide manufacturers, they
- 1:07:24work very hard to make sure that the politicians are
- 1:07:28very happy. Yeah.
- 1:07:30Speaker 2: Biosis interconnected relationships that make life possible. And so when.
- 1:07:34Speaker 1: Bayer owns Monsanto, right?
- 1:07:37Speaker 2: Yeah, so Bayer purchased that recently and they've been at
- 1:07:39this for a long, long time. Bayer started to investigate
- 1:07:43the impact of interconnected relationships on human biology and fertility
- 1:07:48in the 1940s. We call it World War II and
- 1:07:51concentration camps, but that's where the studies really started getting
- 1:07:54set up was understanding the relationship between microbiome The output products,
- 1:08:00amino acids specifically, that support human life.
- 1:08:03Speaker 1: So Bayer was involved in the concentration camps?
- 1:08:06Speaker 2: They were bought by a company called FK Pharmaceuticals in
- 1:08:09Germany in the 1930s. And then they got spun back
- 1:08:12out as Bayer after the war with the collapse of
- 1:08:15the Third Reich. And they're hardly alone in this. Companies
- 1:08:19all over the world at the time were studying these
- 1:08:22interconnected relationships because there was a lot of progress being
- 1:08:25made in the 1930s and 40s all the way back
- 1:08:27to the 1800s. of understanding that humans are an expression
- 1:08:31of a complex ecosystem. They're not just this isolated system.
- 1:08:35And so it was Louis Pasteur who kind of won
- 1:08:38the argument of nature's against us, germs are attacking us,
- 1:08:42all of that. So that really kind of doubled down
- 1:08:45on this belief that Nature is opposed to humans and
- 1:08:49we have to survive by sterilizing our environment. So pasteurization
- 1:08:53is rooted in his name, Louis Pasteur. Right, right. And
- 1:08:56so we start pasteurizing with the idea that if there's
- 1:08:59any life— inside of what we're consuming, it could compete
- 1:09:02with the human life.
- 1:09:03Speaker 1: That is one of the nuttiest things that they've passed
- 1:09:08on society, that they've passed this idea that if you
- 1:09:11don't homogenize and pasteurize your milk, that you're in danger.
- 1:09:15And I don't know if you've ever seen some of
- 1:09:18these gaslighting articles. But some lady– I wish I saved it.
- 1:09:22Somebody made a great TikTok about it today or an
- 1:09:25Instagram reel where she was explaining relative risk versus actual
- 1:09:30risk and how these articles are framed to show you like,
- 1:09:34oh my god, this is so dangerous and that people
- 1:09:37who drink raw milk are like 860 percent more likely
- 1:09:43to get sick. But it's like versus people who drink
- 1:09:47homogenized milk, well, how many people get sick off milk?
- 1:09:50And then you find the actual number and it's like 1,300
- 1:09:53a year or something like that. I forget what it was. 13,000
- 1:09:56a year feel bad because they drank bad milk. And
- 1:09:59out of those, how many of those were drinking raw milk? Well,
- 1:10:03it was like more likely that it was raw. So
- 1:10:05then it's still only a few thousand people.
- 1:10:07Speaker 2: By the time you find something that actually got harmed
- 1:10:09by it, you're down to six people. Exactly, which is.
- 1:10:12Speaker 1: Like one of those really nutty things that people do.
- 1:10:17Instead of saying this is what's dangerous about raw milk,
- 1:10:22don't drink it when it's spoiled. But also that's yogurt.
- 1:10:26Speaker 2: That's yogurt.
- 1:10:28Speaker 1: And you should have yogurt because it's important to have
- 1:10:29good acidophilus and all the cultures, the live cultures.
- 1:10:33Speaker 2: It's probiotics.
- 1:10:34Speaker 1: But don't drink raw milk because raw milk, you'll die.
- 1:10:36I've never heard of a fucking single person who drank
- 1:10:38raw milk.
- 1:10:40Speaker 2: Who died?
- 1:10:41Speaker 1: I had a joke about it in my act a
- 1:10:42long time ago. Like if milk takes you out, like
- 1:10:48my grandfather ate cigarettes and he lived to be a thousand.
- 1:10:50That was the joke. But it was like milk took
- 1:10:53you out, you fucking pussy. Like it's not– no one
- 1:10:58is dying from milk. Shut the fuck up. There's– people
- 1:11:01get food poisoning. It happens a lot. And one of
- 1:11:04the things is it's runoff from industrialized farms that get
- 1:11:09into people's vegetables. It's a lot of vegetables, a lot
- 1:11:13of salads. People get food poisoning from salads unfortunately.
- 1:11:17Speaker 2: Yeah, there was an interesting– project that was put into
- 1:11:21motion around i think it was late teens when the u.s
- 1:11:25government suddenly realized oh my gosh terrorists could attack us
- 1:11:28through salad bars they could poison these salad bars so
- 1:11:31easily and we could just you.
- 1:11:32Speaker 1: Know thousands of people.
- 1:11:36Speaker 2: Those have been long deployed that's an ancient technology the
- 1:11:38sneeze guard ancient technology is so ridiculous even the ancient
- 1:11:42egyptians use those i'm pretty sure but you've got this
- 1:11:47situation where they went out to see like tests like
- 1:11:50what happened if you put salmonella in these things and
- 1:11:52everything else. The conclusion of the whole study two years
- 1:11:55later is it'd be impossible to make salad bars any
- 1:11:58more toxic than they are now. Every pathogen you've ever
- 1:12:03heard of is already there.
- 1:12:04Speaker 1: Oh, for sure. As soon as you let a bunch
- 1:12:05of people touch stuff and most people use their fingers,
- 1:12:07they're gross. What is a salad? What is the thing
- 1:12:11that people get food sickness off the most? What's the
- 1:12:16highest percentage of In terms of like what kind of food? Yeah,
- 1:12:22probably be like oysters, right? Like raw oysters or something. No,
- 1:12:24I bet it's greens.
- 1:12:25Speaker 2: I don't know.
- 1:12:26Speaker 1: I'll be interested to see what your assertion shows. But
- 1:12:29if it is salad, it's not the actual greens itself.
- 1:12:31It's the toxic shit. It's actual shit that gets on them.
- 1:12:36And then it's also like whatever they're using.
- 1:12:38Speaker 2: It's the irrigation of the lettuces that are the problem.
- 1:12:41We can create artificial water systems that start to brew
- 1:12:43these things. But I think, you know, the... If we
- 1:12:46back up for a second, like we're hitting on something
- 1:12:48so exciting here is that if we can understand that
- 1:12:51life is a concentration of light energy, we can start
- 1:12:55to understand everything. And we can start to innovate for
- 1:12:58restoring our relationship to nature. We can become a keystone
- 1:13:01species again. And so I want to take a quick
- 1:13:04look at the last 50 years of antibiotic use. To
- 1:13:07your point, herbicides and pesticides, this thing that we're highly
- 1:13:10dependent on as an economy.
- 1:13:11Speaker 1: 100%, but we can't leave people hanging. So let's find
- 1:13:14out what's the actual— Just put it in perplexity. Yeah,
- 1:13:16I said what food causes the most food poisoning, and
- 1:13:18the answer is just like foods that are contaminated. Raw
- 1:13:23undercooked poultry, that makes sense. Ground beef, other undercooked meats
- 1:13:26commonly linked to toxin-producing E. coli, leafy greens, and other
- 1:13:31raw vegetables. So they don't have like a percentage. Raw
- 1:13:36or undercooked shellfish, raw or undercooked eggs, unpasteurized milk, and
- 1:13:42soft cheeses. Yeah, those are dangerous. Serious. Look, serious pathogens
- 1:13:48like listeria and salmonella. Okay. So there's no data that
- 1:13:55shows exactly what people get sick the most from. So
- 1:13:59your point, go back to where you wanted to go from.
- 1:14:02Speaker 2: So you talked about the herbicides and pesticides. So this
- 1:14:05started with the green revolution in the 1960s where we
- 1:14:07started to believe that the Midwest could start to feed
- 1:14:10the world. We were going to eliminate hunger by chemical farming.
- 1:14:13So I want to repeat that sentence. We decided we
- 1:14:15were going to eliminate hunger by chemical farming.
- 1:14:18Speaker 1: And that was only in the 1950s?
- 1:14:19Speaker 2: The 50s is where we really took off with it.
- 1:14:22That's crazy. At the end of World War II, we
- 1:14:25had a massive glut of oil. And so we had
- 1:14:28revved up the whole global oil and fossil fuel machine
- 1:14:32to supply the global war machine. We had planes, tanks
- 1:14:35everywhere the first time. World War II ends, suddenly there's
- 1:14:38an enormous overload of oil, and oil companies need a
- 1:14:42new revenue source. And this had begun in the 1905-10
- 1:14:47phase with the Rockefellers. The largest oil-producing families in the
- 1:14:51world suddenly realized, wait a second, these carbon molecules can
- 1:14:54be reinvented into something much more valuable. And so we
- 1:14:58can sell a gallon of oil for 22 cents back then,
- 1:15:04or we can take those and start to break out
- 1:15:07through chemical processing, carbon molecules that can start to affect biology.
- 1:15:11And so we could start making drugs that affect these things.
- 1:15:15And so the Flexner Report comes out in 1910 that
- 1:15:17basically demonizes and laughs out herbalism and 10,000 years of
- 1:15:23traditional medicine and says that it's this new technology of
- 1:15:27small carbon molecules that's the future of– it's the only
- 1:15:31advanced form of medical care. And so we started into
- 1:15:35this belief that it was going to be chemical derivatives
- 1:15:37of fossil fuels that were not going to just treat diseases,
- 1:15:40but they were also going to grow our crops.
- 1:15:41Speaker 1: It was Rockefeller that did this, right?
- 1:15:43Speaker 2: Rockefeller has funded the Flexner Report, which was Dr. Flexner's
- 1:15:47big report that said, you know, here's the future and here's,
- 1:15:50you know, kind of.
- 1:15:51Speaker 1: And he had massive investments in oil.
- 1:15:54Speaker 2: Rockefeller built the whole system. So he built standard oil
- 1:15:56that would then get broken up through the monopolies into
- 1:15:59ExxonMobil and the rest, Shell, et cetera. So you've got...
- 1:16:03You know, the situation where it's lived through to today.
- 1:16:07And so something like the chemotherapies that were around, there's
- 1:16:12one called vincristine, which is a classic chemotherapy used for
- 1:16:15a whole host of common cancers. And vincristine is a
- 1:16:19natural compound derived from life. And so it's biologically made
- 1:16:23by algae and things like this. And so it's similar
- 1:16:26to oil where it's just a carbon substrate, but it's
- 1:16:30still in this living form. But it's creating this strange
- 1:16:32carbon molecule called vincristine. So it's made in algae. It's
- 1:16:35present in algae. Instead of saying, hey, here's a biologic
- 1:16:38system that we should look at, like maybe this should
- 1:16:41be in our soil systems. Maybe we should be growing
- 1:16:43food that had this therapeutic effect, this anti-cancer effect. And
- 1:16:47instead they said, no, no, no. Let's separate the algae
- 1:16:50from nature and let's create huge vats of this and
- 1:16:52we will chemically extract the vincristine. Vincristine today is sold
- 1:16:56for $ 28, 000 a gram. And so the same thing was
- 1:17:00done with oil. We can take something that's worth 20
- 1:17:03cents and we can turn it into $ 28, 000 if we
- 1:17:07manipulate these molecules and then make a story of this
- 1:17:10treats a disease that's attacking humanity. And so that's how
- 1:17:14the antibiotic, anti-cancer, anti-diabetes, anti-obesity, anti-everything has come about is
- 1:17:19let's invent chemicals that solve a problem that doesn't even
- 1:17:24really exist. And so this is where we start to
- 1:17:27slip into this massive abstraction of We get so good
- 1:17:30at solving problems that shouldn't even exist or maybe don't
- 1:17:33even exist. And so this was the slippery slope that
- 1:17:36we set into in 1910s that then accelerated like anything
- 1:17:39in the 1950s. So in the 1950s, you'll remember we
- 1:17:42had penicillin in late World War II. So penicillin was
- 1:17:46the first direct antibiotic and it was a revolution. It
- 1:17:49was so exciting. So kids in the 1940s and 50s
- 1:17:52were getting an injection in their butt for anything, common cold, sneeze,
- 1:17:55red eyes, penicillin. So we were giving out these antibiotics thinking, well,
- 1:17:59we're going to sterilize humans finally. And humans are once
- 1:18:02sterile because Louis Pasteur's late 1800s telling us germs were
- 1:18:06the only thing that was really killing humans. If we
- 1:18:08eliminate germs, humans are going to just thrive. And so
- 1:18:11the idea that we now had antibiotics, anti-small things that
- 1:18:15aren't human, we would finally become healthy again. Right.
- 1:18:19Speaker 1: But if people did get infected with syphilis back then,
- 1:18:22antibiotics like penicillin would cure them.
- 1:18:26Speaker 2: It would. So it would eliminate the symptom of syphilis.
- 1:18:28But syphilis wasn't a disease. Syphilis was a symptom of
- 1:18:31a degradation of healthy biologic interconnected relationships. And that was
- 1:18:36being argued back then. In the late 1800s, arguing with
- 1:18:39Pasteur over decades of really well-published stuff, you've got.
- 1:18:44Speaker 1: So can I stop you there? So you're saying that
- 1:18:46the people got syphilis because their system was compromised.
- 1:18:49Speaker 2: No.
- 1:18:50Speaker 1: Not because syphilis is particularly dangerous. So did some people
- 1:18:54not get syphilis that were alive back then, that were
- 1:18:57in contact with it? I mean how contagious was it?
- 1:18:59And is it because their bodies were unhealthy and their
- 1:19:02immune systems weren't functioning correctly because they were malnourished, because
- 1:19:06they didn't get enough nutrients? Like what– Because a lot
- 1:19:10of it was the aristocracy. Like you would think they're
- 1:19:12the most well-fed.
- 1:19:14Speaker 2: They're the most separated from nature.
- 1:19:16Speaker 1: That too, right?
- 1:19:17Speaker 2: They're the ones that aren't gardening. They're the ones that
- 1:19:19aren't out in the back. They're the ones that are
- 1:19:21separated from nature and have technology called convenience pushed around
- 1:19:24them on many, many layers. So they're the ones not
- 1:19:27touching the soil. They're the ones not making the bricks.
- 1:19:29They're the ones not building the houses.
- 1:19:31Speaker 1: They were also drinking a lot and partying.
- 1:19:33Speaker 2: Because they weren't feeling anything. So they went after chemicals
- 1:19:37to feel something. And this is where I think this
- 1:19:40whole give everybody half a million dollars and they'll be happy.
- 1:19:44Speaker 1: No.
- 1:19:44Speaker 2: It's going to isolate them further. They're going to numb
- 1:19:46them down and all it's going to create is drug
- 1:19:48addiction on the highest levels we have ever seen.
- 1:19:50Speaker 1: If they function the way people function today. But that
- 1:19:54was my point is if we educate children to not
- 1:19:56be in pursuit of money but instead think of money
- 1:20:00as something that provides you with food and shelter and
- 1:20:02basic needs and you don't have to worry about any
- 1:20:04of that stuff anymore. Now what you need to do
- 1:20:06is worry about being a person, worry about finding something
- 1:20:09that's fascinating and get an education just for your own
- 1:20:13sake of fueling your curiosity. Learn things. Grow. Pick projects.
- 1:20:20Do things you want to do. Start taking– learning a
- 1:20:24musical instrument. Do something that you find fascinating because you
- 1:20:27don't have to spend your time just working anymore. Isn't
- 1:20:31that possible?
- 1:20:32Speaker 2: You just said a word that I want to go
- 1:20:34back to that's so important. You said, here's enough money
- 1:20:37to provide you food, shelter, and anything else you need.
- 1:20:41Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 1:20:43Speaker 2: Does money really provide food, shelter, or does nature provide it?
- 1:20:49Speaker 1: Well, you use nature to make a house like cement
- 1:20:53doesn't exist in a vacuum.
- 1:20:54Speaker 2: The Ochoa tribe have been building their houses for 40,000 years.
- 1:20:57Speaker 1: Right.
- 1:20:58Speaker 2: No money. They've literally not had money.
- 1:21:00Speaker 1: Right, but they live in the jungle, right? If you
- 1:21:02live in Arizona, you better have a fucking house. You
- 1:21:04better have air conditioning too.
- 1:21:07Speaker 2: Have you visited the Aboriginal brothers down in Australia? Every
- 1:21:12bit as hot and brutal as no houses for 40,000 years.
- 1:21:16They lived absolutely fine without money.
- 1:21:19Speaker 1: That's not ideal. It's not ideal to be outside when
- 1:21:22it's 110 degrees and you're just suffering. I'm sure if
- 1:21:24those people had air conditioning, they'd go, ooh, this is
- 1:21:26way better.
- 1:21:27Speaker 2: That's exactly what happened.
- 1:21:29Speaker 1: They got air conditioning and then what happened?
- 1:21:30Speaker 2: You give them air conditioning, they come out of nature.
- 1:21:32Speaker 1: Yeah, but always? I mean, it's the only way? Like
- 1:21:37people are so dumb, they can't be educated to the
- 1:21:39fact that there's a bunch of things that you have
- 1:21:41to satisfy.
- 1:21:42Speaker 2: It's not intelligence. It's comfort.
- 1:21:44Speaker 1: Comfort.
- 1:21:45Speaker 2: It's subconscious.
- 1:21:46Speaker 1: Right, but can't you teach people that they should just
- 1:21:49seek comfort? Because I learned that. People can learn that.
- 1:21:53Like everybody is like naturally inclined to seek comfort. But
- 1:21:56if you do that too much, you'll just– you become
- 1:21:59soft and you atrophy and you get bored, depressed. And
- 1:22:02that's a real problem with people. We need tasks. We
- 1:22:05are task-oriented, goal-oriented creatures. We like stuff. We like to
- 1:22:09do things. We like to do puzzles. We like to
- 1:22:12play games. We're fascinated.
- 1:22:14Speaker 2: So I've been building stuff since I was a kid.
- 1:22:16Speaker 1: Yeah. People love building stuff.
- 1:22:17Speaker 2: I had the best life ever because I was born poor.
- 1:22:20And so I grew up in government housing in– Colorado. 1973,
- 1:22:24the Vietnam War was just ending. And a bunch of
- 1:22:29the Hmong people of Cambodia were displaced because of Agent
- 1:22:33Orange chemical that is immediately a cousin to glyphosate, the
- 1:22:39chemical we're going to talk about.
- 1:22:39Speaker 1: Is it really? Agent Orange is a carbazine?
- 1:22:42Speaker 2: They're the same class. They're both organophosphate molecules. And so
- 1:22:46I'll get into that story a little later. But Nonetheless,
- 1:22:48this peoples of the Hmong were displaced because we dumped
- 1:22:51it all over Cambodia and North Vietnam to make bare
- 1:22:55the Ho Chi Minh Trail so we could from the
- 1:22:57air see our enemy and kill more people. We turned
- 1:23:01an entire jungle system into a complete moonscape, not a
- 1:23:04single living life form left after 25 years of Agent Orange.
- 1:23:07Speaker 1: Trevor Burrus If you go back there right now, it's
- 1:23:09still like that?
- 1:23:09Speaker 2: No, it is fully recovered because biology has been allowed
- 1:23:12to return. We created so much disease in that place
- 1:23:15that humans were displaced. As soon as humans step out
- 1:23:18of the kind of extractive relationship.
- 1:23:21Speaker 1: Nature rushes back. So the aged orange, it's not like
- 1:23:24a permanent chemical that stays in the soil?
- 1:23:26Speaker 2: There's no such thing as a permanent chemical. Forever chemicals?
- 1:23:30Speaker 1: Those forever chemicals?
- 1:23:31Speaker 2: Forever chemicals are measured without life. If you put biology
- 1:23:36back in a system, it will heal itself, period. And
- 1:23:39that's my promise to humanity that everything is perfect. The
- 1:23:42stress that we're putting on this planet right now with
- 1:23:45these herbicides, pesticides, antibiotics, everything we're doing right now, I
- 1:23:47want to keep this in the context of everything is perfect.
- 1:23:50I'm going to keep drilling this home until we get there.
- 1:23:52But it's going to be an interesting journey because first
- 1:23:54we have to look at how much suffering have we
- 1:23:56created first to understand then why would we create suffering
- 1:24:00and why would that be perfect. But we'll get there.
- 1:24:02But I think we need to back up to people's
- 1:24:04lived experience right now. 1973, we have the end of
- 1:24:08a world war, really. It was an economic drain. Vietnam
- 1:24:12War was This massive drain on economic systems disrupted all
- 1:24:16kinds of things. And then suddenly it's over. And a
- 1:24:19little company called Monsanto that was producing Agent Orange needed
- 1:24:22a new economy. And so they repurposed themselves into a
- 1:24:26chemical cleaner for industrial pipes. And they bought a patent
- 1:24:29from a Japanese inventor who put this patent in the
- 1:24:32late 1950s for something called glyphosate. Bought that patent in 1974.
- 1:24:37And they were using it to clean industrial pipes because
- 1:24:39it has an amazing ability to extract. to grab minerals
- 1:24:42and pull it out of circulation. So they were dumping
- 1:24:45lots of this down these clogged pipes of manufacturing facilities
- 1:24:48and it would clean the pipes out beautifully. But the
- 1:24:51problem was as soon as the effluent got out into
- 1:24:53the river, it would kill all the fish and everything
- 1:24:54else and so it was clearly not going to get
- 1:24:57past any environmental protection. So they needed a different purpose
- 1:25:01for this stuff at lower concentrations and so they repatented
- 1:25:04in 1976 as a weed killer. and rolled it out
- 1:25:07as Roundup, which would become the most successful weed killer
- 1:25:11in history. But this molecule had been already in use,
- 1:25:15and this organophosphate family of molecules had already been killing
- 1:25:18life throughout Cambodia and Vietnam. Those people got displaced, and
- 1:25:21I grew up with them in Boulder, Colorado, in government housing.
- 1:25:26And those Hmong people showed us something of biology. They're
- 1:25:29the most poisoned peoples on the planet, and they showed no...
- 1:25:34They showed metabolic collapse. They showed no decline in health.
- 1:25:37They didn't have explosion of cancer or anything else. They
- 1:25:39should have because we know that Agent Orange causes cancer.
- 1:25:42And they showed me as young as I was at
- 1:25:45the time, three, four years old, growing up with these
- 1:25:47Hmong people in gardens. And these Cambodian women were sitting,
- 1:25:52squatting in the middle of their 10-foot plots that they
- 1:25:55were given as part of our Section 8 government housing.
- 1:25:58And they would sit and tell a story, stay human-connected.
- 1:26:02The receivers were on. The antennas were open. They're telling
- 1:26:05story while they're squatting barefoot in soil systems. And the
- 1:26:09biology is restoring their bodies, cleaning their bodies. I would
- 1:26:13find that out 35 years later studying life in human biology.
- 1:26:17But this is what I loved is that I had
- 1:26:18a lived experience of peoples that had been radically poisoned
- 1:26:22but had stayed in touch with the land. And because
- 1:26:24they were an extension of the planet, they didn't show disease.
- 1:26:29Speaker 1: Because these are the people that left though. I mean
- 1:26:32the people that were still there in Cambodia and in
- 1:26:35Laos and like all the areas where they used Agent Orange.
- 1:26:38Didn't they have a high concentration of cancer, the people
- 1:26:40that lived there?
- 1:26:42Speaker 2: Yes, and that's largely because they got displaced to concentration
- 1:26:44camp type environments where they were separated from nature. So
- 1:26:47if you don't stay connected to nature, then toxicity shows up.
- 1:26:50Cancer shows up, all these things. A good example of
- 1:26:53this is Chernobyl.
- 1:26:55Speaker 1: But the people that lived in the villages where Agent Orange,
- 1:26:58as long as they stayed close to nature, you're saying
- 1:27:01that they were fine from Agent Orange?
- 1:27:03Speaker 2: In this case, there were no villages left. We literally
- 1:27:05turned it into a moonscape. So they were fully refugee status, divorced.
- 1:27:09They didn't have land to go back to for 30 years.
- 1:27:13Speaker 1: But there were people that stayed that were close to
- 1:27:17where that Agent Orange stuff was dumped that lived that
- 1:27:21did get cancer, right?
- 1:27:22Speaker 2: Yeah, and the ones with the highest cancer were the U.S.
- 1:27:24military soldiers. And so the people that were most separate
- 1:27:28from nature were going to show the highest rates of cancer.
- 1:27:31And so you have U.S. military that are eating canned
- 1:27:33food and MREs half a world away. They're going to
- 1:27:37show an immediate increase. And that's why Agent Orange couldn't
- 1:27:40be repurposed is because it got such a bad rap.
- 1:27:43Speaker 1: High anxiety. You're in a war. You don't want to
- 1:27:45be there.
- 1:27:46Speaker 2: You're isolated socially.
- 1:27:47Speaker 1: Probably doing a lot of drugs.
- 1:27:48Speaker 2: Psychologically, yeah.
- 1:27:48Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 1:27:50Speaker 2: So you've reached a stress level because of your separation
- 1:27:53from your own personal natural connected biosis of a family
- 1:27:56and a community and your garden and all these things.
- 1:27:59So as we get further from nature, we become more
- 1:28:02vulnerable and then toxins become a real crisis for biology.
- 1:28:06So biology in isolation will have huge consequences to poisoning.
- 1:28:11A connected biologic system sees poison as a stressor that
- 1:28:15will make it stronger, not weaker.
- 1:28:17Speaker 1: When you're communicating with these people, especially like people that
- 1:28:20live in these indigenous cultures, do they experience infections? Do
- 1:28:26they have– like do they get the flu? Does anything
- 1:28:30go through them that's in their own– not something that's
- 1:28:34introduced by other people? Like we know that that wiped
- 1:28:37out 90 percent of Native Americans is 10%. that came
- 1:28:40from Europe.
- 1:28:42Speaker 2: It's a story that's told. I'm not sure that we
- 1:28:43have the greatest evidence of that. That story has been
- 1:28:46played a lot. I think it's also possible that we
- 1:28:49just killed a lot of people.
- 1:28:50Speaker 1: Well, we certainly did that as well.
- 1:28:52Speaker 2: We killed a lot of people. But I think that
- 1:28:54what's not understood was the breaking of their relationship to
- 1:28:56their natural system. Yeah. They may have had dysentery and
- 1:29:00died of infectious diseases but not until we displaced them
- 1:29:03from their gardens, displaced them from their land and all that.
- 1:29:05We had to break their relationship to nature if they
- 1:29:07were going to get a bowel infection that was going
- 1:29:09to cause a problem. I've just seen too many examples
- 1:29:12of connected biological systems that just cannot become diseased. A
- 1:29:17connected system and again, let me turn to Chernobyl for
- 1:29:19a moment because this is a pretty rad example of this.
- 1:29:23largest nuclear event, nuclear disaster that's ever been created in
- 1:29:27human history, maybe the Japan one is now exceeding it.
- 1:29:30But Chernobyl, was it 30 years ago, was it 1976
- 1:29:34or something like that? Chernobyl happens, huge nuclear waste dump
- 1:29:39into soil systems throughout the Siberian region there. And we
- 1:29:44have the immediate movement of humans out of the region
- 1:29:46out of fear of cancer. And sure enough, all the
- 1:29:49humans that were in touch with that system, huge rates
- 1:29:52of thyroid cancer, renal disease, all kinds of things occurred. Meanwhile,
- 1:29:58those soils are primarily inhabited by voles, a small little
- 1:30:02mouse-like creature that lives under the ground, looks halfway across
- 1:30:05a field mouse and a mole. Those tiny little creatures
- 1:30:08have been eating the most radioactive soils on the planet
- 1:30:10for the last 30, 40 years. Almost 50 years now.
- 1:30:15And so that 50 years of eating radioactive material, they're
- 1:30:18now radioactive. So when you put a Geiger counter up
- 1:30:21next to one of those voles, it's not beep, beep, beep, beep.
- 1:30:24It's just a continuous hum. And so these are the
- 1:30:27most radioactive creatures on Earth. Not a single case of
- 1:30:31pup deformities, no collapse of fertility. In fact, the vole
- 1:30:36populations are thriving. The predator to the vole in Chernobyl
- 1:30:41is the wolf. And the Siberian wolf has... absolutely quadrupled
- 1:30:46its population, no birth defects, no cancer, no consequence to
- 1:30:51eating the voles that are highly radioactive. And so these
- 1:30:56are the best examples of when a system, when a
- 1:30:58keystone species or otherwise is connected to its nature, she
- 1:31:02will never allow an injury to occur that she doesn't
- 1:31:05allow or already have a solution for. And so at
- 1:31:08the microbiome level, we now know how these wolves and
- 1:31:12voles are surviving as they upregulate Pseudomonas. And Pseudomonas has
- 1:31:15this amazing, it's a bacteria that actually, if you look
- 1:31:18through all those food poisoning lists of like what's going
- 1:31:20to kill you on the E. coli and the Pseudomonas,
- 1:31:23Pseudomonas is one of the most feared bacteria in a hospital,
- 1:31:26for example. It turns out Pseudomonas thrive on radioactive material.
- 1:31:30They digest it, turn it into usable and safer products
- 1:31:32and all of this. And so the microbiome is there
- 1:31:35living in the voles, constantly converting and updating its physiology
- 1:31:39so it's repairing at a faster rate than it's being injured.
- 1:31:42And I'll show you what this looks like in a
- 1:31:43lab too. moment, but I want you to hold that
- 1:31:46thought of every organism has a rate of repair and
- 1:31:50a rate of injury. And as long as the rate
- 1:31:53of repair is slightly faster than the rate of injury,
- 1:31:55it never gets a disease. You can ramp up that
- 1:31:58injury rate, and if nature stays interconnected, your rate of
- 1:32:02repair simply steps up to its right capacity. And so
- 1:32:07this is that classic adage, if it doesn't kill you,
- 1:32:09it makes you stronger. A biology... That's practicing a relationship
- 1:32:14of biosis, the interconnected relationships that make health and life possible.
- 1:32:19A biotic creature will always have the resources if from
- 1:32:23nature rather than from money. Money is never going to
- 1:32:26provide you biosis. Nature is always going to provide you
- 1:32:29the biotic capacity to overcome any toxicity that gets streamed up,
- 1:32:33planetary or otherwise. The planet has been making horrible toxins forever.
- 1:32:37the sulfuric acid pools that this planet, dominate this planet's surface.
- 1:32:41Biology came right past all of that. Biology grew up
- 1:32:44in it. Biology has no problem with chemistry because of
- 1:32:48its phenomenon of light concentration of energy, more energy per
- 1:32:52cubic centimeter than anything else in the cosmos. Life is
- 1:32:55this churning machine of iteration, repair, regeneration, iteration, repair, regeneration.
- 1:33:00And every time it does that, it has this tendency
- 1:33:03to make new iterations of itself. become more biodiverse new
- 1:33:07species are formed new imagination of nature and pretty soon
- 1:33:10you have a planet earth that's teeming with so much
- 1:33:13unbelievable life and finally a container that can hold its
- 1:33:17maximum concentration of information and light energy is created and
- 1:33:20that's a human and so we've got this container that's
- 1:33:23holding billions of years of stress the result of stress
- 1:33:28when connected to nature is more life force more intelligence
- 1:33:32more beauty And so I loved what you said earlier
- 1:33:34because it's very important. There's a chapter in my book
- 1:33:37that's looking at this kind of neo-spiritualism of the utopia
- 1:33:40you mentioned. And you kind of call BS from the
- 1:33:43beginning on that. You're like, humans have never done utopian things.
- 1:33:47Humans are part of the stress mechanism of the planet.
- 1:33:50I'm convinced of it because what we do all the
- 1:33:52time is we stress the system. We finally invented airplanes.
- 1:33:55The first thing we did was try to jump out
- 1:33:57of them. We just like stress. We like the discomfort
- 1:34:02of pushing the envelope. And I think we live on
- 1:34:04a planet in the middle of a universe that loves
- 1:34:07the same thing. It loves the stress of it. It
- 1:34:10loves the friction of possibility. It loves death because immediately
- 1:34:14there's rebirth. And every time there's a death, there's more
- 1:34:17opportunity for new creation, new imagination. And so when I
- 1:34:21say everything is perfect, it's literal. It means everything is
- 1:34:26re-imagining itself all the time. And if humans do go
- 1:34:29extinct in these coming decades... That's part of a beautiful
- 1:34:32journey of life going iterating, iterating, iterating, iterating. There's a
- 1:34:37moment though with every hospice patient where you suddenly get
- 1:34:40to see life return. And sometimes they choose more life
- 1:34:44in the human body and sometimes they're like, I'm gone.
- 1:34:48That's where I belong over there. I have a next thing.
- 1:34:52I've been by so many near-death experiences, I can't even
- 1:34:54count them anymore. But every time somebody dips across the
- 1:34:57veil of the human ego and the five sensory systems
- 1:35:00here They see a universe that's so interconnected and has
- 1:35:05got absolutely nothing to do with the human mind and
- 1:35:08its perception and its effort to explain the universe. It
- 1:35:13has nothing to do. It's a full-body experience. It is
- 1:35:17that antenna going wide open and being like, this is
- 1:35:21what it is. And I can't. It's the one thing
- 1:35:29I wish I could do, and I've never been able
- 1:35:31to do, is just help humans feel that. If you
- 1:35:36could feel what it felt like when somebody hasn't even
- 1:35:39come back to the point where they can tell you
- 1:35:40the near-death experience, but you're just standing there in witness
- 1:35:44to them, and their antenna goes blowing wide open, and
- 1:35:48you can feel what is in the field at that moment,
- 1:35:53there is nothing that compares to it. Plant medicine... peak experiences,
- 1:35:58breath work, cold plunge, hot plunge, take your body through
- 1:36:01any stress, you will not experience the amount of energetic
- 1:36:04information that comes through at that moment to that human
- 1:36:06antenna that's still biologically connected to Earth but is perceiving
- 1:36:10the whole story. That's the end of addiction. If you
- 1:36:17could feel that, there would be no more addiction on
- 1:36:19this planet because addiction is the necessary behavior of an
- 1:36:24organism that believes itself to be abandoned by It's infinite reality.
- 1:36:30Humans believed ourselves to be abandoned by nature. And we
- 1:36:33put it right in our definition. You can probably pull
- 1:36:35it up, Oxford English Dictionary. Nature is everything in the
- 1:36:38firmament of the earth, minerals, plants, animals, as opposed to
- 1:36:42humans or anything humans have made. Not only do we
- 1:36:45write ourselves out in nature, we put ourselves in opposition
- 1:36:48to nature as opposed to humans or anything humans have made.
- 1:36:50Speaker 1: That's the Oxford Dictionary's definition of nature?
- 1:36:53Speaker 2: Really? Really. And so as you start to think about this,
- 1:36:57like that's the whole story. It's when we start to
- 1:37:01lose the antenna, when we started dulling down the receptor
- 1:37:04and we started planting mental constructs, money is where things
- 1:37:09come from. No. Money has never birthed anything. Women birth life.
- 1:37:14Money does not. Biology is self-perpetuating, always for more beauty,
- 1:37:20more intelligence. Anytime we create an abstract system and say
- 1:37:24biology needs that, biology, living people need money. Living people
- 1:37:29need IV drips of vitamin C. Living humans need peptides injected.
- 1:37:34It is the biggest miss in the cosmos is humans
- 1:37:40that don't realize that we are the best antennas that
- 1:37:43have been made on this planet so far. If we
- 1:37:46begin to use those, we will not do utopia. We'll
- 1:37:49be destroyed. experience opportunities for stress that doesn't harm another individual.
- 1:37:55And this is the characteristic of a sovereign reality where
- 1:38:00everything is up-leveling all of the time. And something that
- 1:38:03gives up its life is not killed. It's literally giving
- 1:38:06its life to the next. And so when you look
- 1:38:08at predation, you're thinking of the lion eating the antelope.
- 1:38:13If you spend enough time with these indigenous groups, they
- 1:38:17can tell you which antelope is going to give itself
- 1:38:19to the lion. It's not because it's weak or it's broken.
- 1:38:23There's a relationship they can feel between the predator and
- 1:38:27the prey. It's interesting that we call them prey. who's
- 1:38:30praying in this situation who's about to go into an
- 1:38:33ascension process is the antelope or the lion maybe both
- 1:38:37but there's a relationship there in our indigenous understanding this
- 1:38:40is where sacred hunting comes in sacred hunting never went
- 1:38:44out to kill anything it came to receive more so
- 1:38:48if you go out in nature and with the attitude
- 1:38:50of I'm going to receive the abundance of nature for
- 1:38:53my peoples, for my family, for my thing. And you
- 1:38:56see what nature is going to offer you. And this
- 1:38:59is the hunter-gatherer tribes in spades here. But this is
- 1:39:02the change of mindset that we've got to go back
- 1:39:04to is everything is sacred. Everything is sovereign. And when
- 1:39:08we sit back into that relaxed relationship where we never
- 1:39:11got kicked out of nature, everything, our food, our shelter,
- 1:39:15our livelihoods are going to come from nature, not money.
- 1:39:19When we make that subtle shift of trusting this planet again,
- 1:39:24then we start turning on the antenna. And then our
- 1:39:27intelligence comes back on. And then our memory comes back on.
- 1:39:31And we don't have to sit around being like, I
- 1:39:32wonder how those pyramids got built. We will be connected
- 1:39:36to that information because it's all still here.
- 1:39:39Speaker 1: I want to go back to that. But I want
- 1:39:41to push back on this idea that people can survive
- 1:39:45plagues if they don't have immunity to it. Because one
- 1:39:49of the best examples where that seems to have wiped
- 1:39:53out an entire civilization is all these sites they keep
- 1:39:58finding in the Amazon. When you read about the lost
- 1:40:02city of Z, you read about the initial European explorers
- 1:40:06who made their way into the Amazon. They found this
- 1:40:08thriving civilization. They went back 200 years ago. 200 years later,
- 1:40:11there's nothing. And the predominant theory– is that they brought
- 1:40:17with them smallpox and a bunch of other diseases and
- 1:40:19they spread like wildfire to a bunch of people that
- 1:40:21didn't have immunity to it and they died. Who's living
- 1:40:25more in harmony with nature than those people that were
- 1:40:28living in the Amazon? I mean they're living in complete
- 1:40:31harmony with nature. They just didn't have the immunity to
- 1:40:34deal with European diseases.
- 1:40:37Speaker 2: So you're telling me a story that I cannot answer
- 1:40:40because the story is abstract itself. How so? Because you're
- 1:40:45painting a picture, A, that somebody knows that there were
- 1:40:47smallpox that went across those peoples.
- 1:40:49Speaker 1: Well, we know there were smallpox and we know that
- 1:40:52smallpox did most certainly wipe out a lot of Native
- 1:40:55Americans as well as a lot of European settlers. Was
- 1:40:58it because they were malnourished? That's certainly possible. I mean
- 1:41:01that's certainly a factor.
- 1:41:02Speaker 2: I guess I would just say when. When do we
- 1:41:04have evidence that they started dying of smallpox? I think
- 1:41:07that's after we displaced them. from their tribal lands after
- 1:41:10we displaced them from their connected ecologies.
- 1:41:13Speaker 1: That's hard to say because it seems like there's a
- 1:41:15lot of evidence that it spread through tribes and even
- 1:41:17tribes that were on their own, that there was a
- 1:41:22real problem. But the other question is it wasn't always
- 1:41:27bountiful like wherever Native Americans were and there was times
- 1:41:32where they had like serious famine and they didn't have
- 1:41:36food sources that were nutritious and they did their best
- 1:41:40to stay alive. It wasn't always like, look at all
- 1:41:43the deer and all the fish and we have fruits
- 1:41:46and vegetables everywhere, we're fine. No, there was certainly times
- 1:41:50where these nomadic people ran into a bad situation. And
- 1:41:56if you introduce a new disease, a novel disease that
- 1:41:59they don't have an immunity to during that time, that
- 1:42:01could most certainly wipe them out, despite the fact that
- 1:42:04they're living in nature. They don't have the resources that's
- 1:42:09required to keep a biological system perfectly functioning and healthy.
- 1:42:13They're struggling. They're barely getting by. I could totally see
- 1:42:18how people like that– we like to think that everybody
- 1:42:23that lived in North America before the Europeans came had
- 1:42:27it nailed. They lived perfectly.
- 1:42:29Speaker 2: Well, no.
- 1:42:30Speaker 1: Tribal– Hunter-gatherer people that are nomadic, like sometimes you run
- 1:42:35into a bad place. Sometimes you're in an area that
- 1:42:39has no game. That's just how it goes. You have
- 1:42:42a bunch of mouths to feed and things go wrong.
- 1:42:44And if they're in that kind of a situation and
- 1:42:47they catch smallpox, they're going to be compromised. Their immune
- 1:42:49system will be compromised. Completely makes sense. And there was
- 1:42:52widespread contact with these diseases that came from these Europeans
- 1:42:56who also weren't very healthy and came over here on boats.
- 1:42:59That's got to be fucking terrible for you. You're on
- 1:43:01a boat for three months. What kind of food are
- 1:43:03you eating? And then you get here and you're spreading
- 1:43:05all your junk to all these other people that have
- 1:43:08no idea what that is.
- 1:43:09Speaker 2: I think you're– now you're on the button of it.
- 1:43:12And so it was less about the condition of people
- 1:43:15that were native to this land. It was more about
- 1:43:17the divorce of the people that were incoming from nature.
- 1:43:20And so those settlers or those industrial colonists who were
- 1:43:27coming over from Spain or otherwise– It was their radical
- 1:43:30divorce for thousands of years of innovations of clothing and
- 1:43:35horses and all these different layers of technology that interrupted
- 1:43:39their food systems and their relationship with nature. So they
- 1:43:41were coming over here sick. I agree with that. And
- 1:43:44it's likely that that may have been more of the
- 1:43:46imprint was less of an infectious disease and more of
- 1:43:49a dissonant imbalance. And so I think what we now
- 1:43:53know about the gut microbiome is that it has an
- 1:43:55immediate feedback loop to stress signals, cortisol specifically. And so
- 1:43:59if you're a Spanish colonial army that shows up with
- 1:44:04weapons that have never been seen before and you've got
- 1:44:07this marauding belief that you're separate from nature and so
- 1:44:13you need to go steal as much as possible because
- 1:44:15you don't have enough. And so that's the downstream of
- 1:44:18the abandonment disorder of humanity is scarcity mentality, which then
- 1:44:21breeds empire rise and fall and colonialism and ownership models
- 1:44:24and all of this. And so— You come over with
- 1:44:28this marauding new species. Let's think of it as a
- 1:44:31new species because up until this point, none of the
- 1:44:34indigenous cultures here saw themselves as separate from nature. All
- 1:44:37of their 40,000 years of traditional practice where we are
- 1:44:41integrated in nature, we are an element between the cosmos
- 1:44:44and the earth. We sit in this fine little beautiful
- 1:44:47zone between heaven and earth and this is human. This
- 1:44:49is the experience of being an antenna that's connected to
- 1:44:52this cosmos, connected to planet earth.
- 1:44:54Speaker 1: And a great example of that is Aztec architecture that
- 1:44:58literally mirrors the cosmos.
- 1:45:00Speaker 2: Mirrors the cosmos as did the Egyptians. And so all
- 1:45:03of them were building these pyramids in 13-degree angles just
- 1:45:07like Orion's belt. And so you've got Pleiadian star clusters
- 1:45:12lasered into the stones in Peru and the temples that
- 1:45:16are built underground there, like crazy stuff. Because we were
- 1:45:20antenna to the universe and we were antenna to the earth.
- 1:45:22We sat feeling them both. That's the magic of being
- 1:45:25human is you can feel both. This is a very
- 1:45:28magical moment. And my patients that are dying and are
- 1:45:30letting go of these bodies, they're certainly cosmic in scale.
- 1:45:33They'll tell you exactly which planets they go to and
- 1:45:35how they expand into the universe, become stars, all kinds
- 1:45:38of crazy stuff in their near-death experiences. But they're not.
- 1:45:42on Earth at that moment. So I think this wonderful
- 1:45:44moment of being an antenna, a biological antenna, not the
- 1:45:47physics of a soul, some identity that sits outside of
- 1:45:50biologic space-time, but an antenna that's now biologically connected to
- 1:45:55more energy per cubic centimeter than it will ever feel
- 1:45:58because the cosmos doesn't do energy as well as life.
- 1:46:02And so a sun doesn't do as much concentrated energy
- 1:46:05as life. And so this is this precious moment. And
- 1:46:09so you imagine these people for tens of thousands of
- 1:46:11years designing, expressing these incredible technologies, the pyramids and space
- 1:46:16travel and everything else that they're doing at this time.
- 1:46:18Unbelievable connectivity. And then along comes a species that look human,
- 1:46:24except they think they don't belong to Earth. They think
- 1:46:27they got abandoned. The whole kicked out of the garden
- 1:46:30thing has played itself out. And they come in with
- 1:46:33this vision. killing mentality that is different than the prey
- 1:46:36and predator relationship that peoples had with each other, I'm
- 1:46:39sure too. It wasn't just lions and antelopes. There was
- 1:46:43a predation between humans from our beginning too. We are
- 1:46:46a natural system. We live, we die, we rebirth, we death.
- 1:46:50When our antennas are wide open, we understand the relationship
- 1:46:53and the flow of life as it goes through its
- 1:46:55ascension process. But here comes the species that is fundamentally
- 1:47:01opposed to life. It is antibiotic in its behavioral relationship
- 1:47:05to Earth. The stress that would have been felt in
- 1:47:09the neurologic system from peoples that had been interconnected to
- 1:47:12understanding space and having anything in retirement, what they would
- 1:47:15have felt in that time would have, I think, been
- 1:47:18the infectious disease. Just like the boxed apple juice that
- 1:47:21came along to break the relationship of 40,000 years of
- 1:47:24abundance for the Ochoa tribe and now put them in poverty.
- 1:47:28The same thing could happen energetically at the spiritual or
- 1:47:30psycho-spiritual or psycho-awareness. That antenna could suddenly break if suddenly
- 1:47:36you felt like you were actually in danger. And isn't
- 1:47:39that what we feel when we feel a sociopath in
- 1:47:41our presence? Don't we suddenly viscerally feel something like this
- 1:47:45is actually dangerous? Other people can be mean. They can
- 1:47:48be assholes. But it's that antenna goes up. And so
- 1:47:52imagine a whole civilization feeling for the most– This foreign
- 1:47:58object coming at them and it's shooting them and it's
- 1:48:01killing them and it's tearing up their gardens and it's
- 1:48:03got horses which have never been seen on this continent.
- 1:48:06The cortisol level goes berserk. Immune system shuts down. Microbiome
- 1:48:10in the gut collapses. And suddenly they are experiencing diseases
- 1:48:14of the West not because the pathogens were bad, not
- 1:48:16because some element of nature suddenly leapt across the ocean
- 1:48:19at them, but because they went out of relationship. The
- 1:48:23antenna shut down. They lost the context of an interconnected
- 1:48:27biosis relationship with heaven and earth. I think that's where
- 1:48:31we start to really see honestly what was happening at
- 1:48:33that time. It was fear that was bringing it. It
- 1:48:36was guilt, shame of being kicked out of nature. Energetic
- 1:48:40signals that were breaking the informational stream, the field of
- 1:48:44connectivity that was– that humans were probably suspended into that time.
- 1:48:48Speaker 1: But even before the Europeans arrived, the Aztecs were doing
- 1:48:53horrific shit to each other. Like in the consecration of
- 1:48:57the temple of– is it Tenochtitlan? Mm-hmm. Where they killed–
- 1:49:01one of the– a Spanish chronicler named Diaz said that
- 1:49:05they killed as many as 80,000 people over four days.
- 1:49:09They sacrificed them. Like these are– this is not like
- 1:49:14a balanced living with nature civilization we're talking about, the Aztecs.
- 1:49:19They were doing some wild shit, man.
- 1:49:22Speaker 2: They had survived much longer than the Europeans had.
- 1:49:25Speaker 1: I understand that, but they had survived by enslaving people
- 1:49:29and ritually sacrificing them.
- 1:49:31Speaker 2: So that's your European story.
- 1:49:33Speaker 1: Okay.
- 1:49:34Speaker 2: So that's a European seeing a system and projecting its
- 1:49:38belief of its own broken relationship with nature and everything else.
- 1:49:41Speaker 1: But do you think that they had a harmonious connection
- 1:49:43with nature by sacrificing slaves?
- 1:49:46Speaker 2: I can't defend that because I wasn't there to experience it,
- 1:49:49but I'll tell you a different story that might make
- 1:49:50you question it.
- 1:49:51Speaker 1: Please do.
- 1:49:52Speaker 2: Because for me to tell you what the Aztecs were,
- 1:49:54that's a bullshit story. I can't tell you. But in
- 1:49:57my own lived experience with tribes in that exact area,
- 1:50:02when I spend time with them, my antenna goes wide.
- 1:50:06I start to sense this bigger reality. And if you
- 1:50:09look deeper at the stories of the Aztecs, one of
- 1:50:12the classic things that they did human sacrifice in was
- 1:50:16their sports. And so they had a game that looked
- 1:50:18a lot like some combination of soccer and basketball. And
- 1:50:22so they had a little tiny ball that they could
- 1:50:24strike with any part of their body except their hands.
- 1:50:26So they couldn't throw it.
- 1:50:27Speaker 1: The Mayans did that, right? Yeah.
- 1:50:28Speaker 2: And so the Mayans have this sport. And they've got
- 1:50:30this tiny little hoop way up on the wall of
- 1:50:33the playing field, which were huge. They were like as
- 1:50:37big as your lacrosse field or something like this. And
- 1:50:38so they got these huge fields in the middle of
- 1:50:41these pyramidic structures of stone. And way up on the
- 1:50:44wall of one of these would be this tiny little
- 1:50:45hoop that was hardly bigger than the ball itself. And
- 1:50:47you had to like bump it with your shoulder or
- 1:50:49kick it through that little hoop. The games would last
- 1:50:52for days. It was kind of like some version of
- 1:50:56your British sports that go on and on. But at
- 1:50:59any rate, the winner would be then taken to the
- 1:51:04front and the captain of the team would be beheaded.
- 1:51:09Speaker 1: Yeah, not a lot of incentive.
- 1:51:12Speaker 2: Not a lot of incentive.
- 1:51:13Speaker 1: Not a lot of incentive to score.
- 1:51:15Speaker 2: That's why the games took.
- 1:51:16Speaker 1: For fucking ever. That's why they lasted days.
- 1:51:18Speaker 2: Nobody wanted to win. But what if the incentive... Was
- 1:51:21it they didn't want to win or was the incentive
- 1:51:23not to stay alive?
- 1:51:24Speaker 1: Well, the kings weren't cutting their own heads off if
- 1:51:27someone won, right? They were cutting the heads off of
- 1:51:29the guy who was the winner and probably reluctantly.
- 1:51:35Speaker 2: I mean– We can make all kinds of suppositions. Sure.
- 1:51:37Speaker 1: I mean maybe they were looking forward to being sacrificed.
- 1:51:40It's very possible.
- 1:51:41Speaker 2: I think that's an interesting possibility.
- 1:51:42Speaker 1: But human instincts don't align with that. Human instincts align
- 1:51:46with people try to avoid death whenever possible.
- 1:51:49Speaker 2: I totally agree that while we're still veiled between the
- 1:51:53five senses that make us think that things end.
- 1:51:55Speaker 1: I understand. But if you're advocating for a world where
- 1:51:58it's okay to kill 80,000 slaves at the consecration of
- 1:52:01a temple that you probably didn't build in the first
- 1:52:03place because one of the problems with the Aztec temples
- 1:52:06is they don't claim they built them. They found them.
- 1:52:09They found them already built. And they literally call them
- 1:52:13the place where the gods were born. Like some of
- 1:52:16these incredible structures were built. Who knows how much longer
- 1:52:20before the Aztecs were there? They describe it. They don't
- 1:52:23say they built them.
- 1:52:24Speaker 2: No, they inhabited them, say, with Egypt. They were built
- 1:52:26thousands of years before the modern Egyptians showed up.
- 1:52:30Speaker 1: Likely. The Egypt one is a little more complicated because
- 1:52:34there's so much of it and it's so big. It's
- 1:52:37not that the Aztec one isn't complicated because it certainly is.
- 1:52:40So is the Mayan one. I've only been to Mayan pyramids.
- 1:52:44I've been to Chichen Itza. It was fucking incredible. It's insane.
- 1:52:48You just try to wrap your head around what this
- 1:52:52society must have been like at its peak. But that's
- 1:52:56also the belief is that these people encountered European diseases
- 1:53:01as well. That's why they just sort of dropped off
- 1:53:04and vanished just like the Amazons.
- 1:53:08Speaker 2: So I think there's a risk of us– imprinting our
- 1:53:11current belief systems on a distant past that we can't remember.
- 1:53:14Speaker 1: Well, sure. Yeah. I mean, there's really, they don't really
- 1:53:17know what happened to the Mayans.
- 1:53:18Speaker 2: That's where I'll sit.
- 1:53:19Speaker 1: There's a lot of guessing, but the prominent theory, the
- 1:53:21predominant theory, I think is disease.
- 1:53:24Speaker 2: And so I don't want to leave people hanging and
- 1:53:26think that I'm out to create a new humanity where
- 1:53:29it's okay to kill 80,000 people.
- 1:53:31Speaker 1: I don't think you're saying that.
- 1:53:32Speaker 2: I'm interested in a situation where the concept of killing
- 1:53:35goes away. The concept of death becomes reverent. The concept
- 1:53:40of death no longer is seen as an endpoint. The
- 1:53:42concept of death becomes an evolution, not an endpoint. This
- 1:53:47is what all indigenous people who spend some time in
- 1:53:49Nepal go to Tibet. Their whole culture is in reverence
- 1:53:54to death.
- 1:53:55Speaker 1: Well, they have those Tibetan sky funerals.
- 1:53:57Speaker 2: Sky funerals.
- 1:53:58Speaker 1: Those are wild. And people are horrified by that. But
- 1:54:01I was like, as long as you knew that they
- 1:54:04didn't have to get that HBO autopsy guide to exhume
- 1:54:07your body because you're your husband killed you or whatever
- 1:54:10it is, as long as you know that you died
- 1:54:12in a normal, natural way, isn't that kind of better
- 1:54:15to let the vultures eat you? It's kind of what
- 1:54:18you're supposed to be. You're supposed to cycle back into nature.
- 1:54:21We're so weird that we say, nah, you can't have me.
- 1:54:24And we poison ourselves so that we can go visit
- 1:54:27grandpa in the funeral home when he's embalmed. He's embalmed
- 1:54:31with toxic chemicals that are going to keep his body
- 1:54:33from decaying so much so that you can dig them
- 1:54:36up a couple years later and find, oh my God,
- 1:54:38Nana poisoned them. You know? Because that's what happens. They
- 1:54:44find out.
- 1:54:46Speaker 2: That starts our new commentary about marriage.
- 1:54:48Speaker 1: Yeah, well, about humans.
- 1:54:51Speaker 2: I think there's something that you're not doing.
- 1:54:53Speaker 1: That was just one example. It could be, you know,
- 1:54:55a bunch of people. There's nurses that poison people. There's
- 1:54:59a lot of crazy people out there. But the point is, like,
- 1:55:02we're very strange in that the Most common way we
- 1:55:06take care of bodies is we fill them up with
- 1:55:08chemicals that make it so that the rest of nature
- 1:55:11can absorb us.
- 1:55:12Speaker 2: That's because we have no reverence for death because we
- 1:55:14think it's an end point. So we cling to these
- 1:55:17containers as if this was the story. And that's what
- 1:55:20I got to see in hospice over and over again.
- 1:55:22It's the moment people pierce the veil and realize the
- 1:55:25antenna can sense everything again. That's when they realize this
- 1:55:28body is a tiny story of me. This is a
- 1:55:31tiny part of my experience and it's precious because at
- 1:55:35that moment of being human, I felt heartbreak. I felt suffering.
- 1:55:40I felt fear. I felt guilt. I felt shame. None
- 1:55:45of what you can feel when you let go and
- 1:55:47pierce that veil. On the other side is radical connectivity.
- 1:55:52On the other side of that veil is radical connectivity energetically.
- 1:55:56You feel everything, stars, moonscapes, everything.
- 1:55:59Speaker 1: You are everything.
- 1:56:00Speaker 2: You're in this singularity moment and that's what you can
- 1:56:03feel in your body. Like I continue to get so
- 1:56:07moved by what I feel right now when I just
- 1:56:09tell you about what it feels like to be in
- 1:56:11the presence of somebody in that moment when their antenna
- 1:56:14goes wide open and they still have a biological antenna
- 1:56:17that can both transmit and receive information. The amount of
- 1:56:21information around death is so vast and this is why
- 1:56:25the Tibetans honor it so thoroughly is this is that
- 1:56:29precious one moment. Where a human antenna gets the entire
- 1:56:33download and can still transmit it. And so if we
- 1:56:36are not sitting in the rooms with our elders that
- 1:56:40are dying, we are missing the biggest download of life.
- 1:56:44And we will only find it out when we're on
- 1:56:46our deathbed, probably dying alone. And so this is what
- 1:56:50I'm talking about is I see a world not without death.
- 1:56:53I see a world where death becomes the biggest moment
- 1:56:57of transformation. And 10% of people that go through that
- 1:57:02have to be discharged from hospice six months later because
- 1:57:04they went on to live a new life. Their diseases
- 1:57:06go away. Their health recovers. Their biology returns. And they
- 1:57:11have a different relationship with their children. They go and
- 1:57:14start creating art they've never created. These near-death experiences are trippy,
- 1:57:18and 10% is a huge number. As a hospice doctor,
- 1:57:21I was admitting 80 patients a week to die. That's
- 1:57:24eight patients a week. that are doing what they weren't
- 1:57:27supposed to do. They were supposed to die and they're
- 1:57:29not doing it. In fact, they are showing so much
- 1:57:32more life after they glimpsed that everything's perfect. And they
- 1:57:36took a deep breath and said, I got one more
- 1:57:38thing to express before I let go of this finite moment.
- 1:57:42And this is our precious experience that we have. And
- 1:57:45I think, honestly, I think you're embodying something of this
- 1:57:49for humanity to look at. You're one of those rare
- 1:57:52personalities that gets on this, seismic launch into the public
- 1:57:57eye wealth comes rushing to you that wasn't even expected
- 1:58:01you set out to have some fun with some friends
- 1:58:04and then this happened and you were one of the
- 1:58:07few people in the public eye right now that didn't
- 1:58:10allow that to break your relationship to your nature and
- 1:58:12you stayed connected to the people that are building stuff
- 1:58:15that are making cars and that's what i grew up
- 1:58:17doing i love it that's it's what keeps us real
- 1:58:20is turning wrenches getting the car to go faster building
- 1:58:24a house. I built my own home. I live in
- 1:58:26the woods of Virginia and built my home there. Living
- 1:58:30with my partner down in Panama, she's building a whole
- 1:58:33village down there. It's amazing to see what is going
- 1:58:36to happen when women start doing development on this planet.
- 1:58:39It's going to be spectacular. But what I'm feeling is
- 1:58:42this return to being human where I am receiving so
- 1:58:46much information and I need no money to be happy.
- 1:58:51if we keep making money, the source by which we
- 1:58:54will be safe, fed, housed, everything else, we will continue
- 1:58:57in our abstract relationship to nature. When we start reforming
- 1:59:01all human systems in the context of a nature that
- 1:59:04is not only abundant, it does not know death. It
- 1:59:07only knows transformation, transformation, transformation, transformation, more complexity, more beauty,
- 1:59:11more intelligence. And so this is where we can start
- 1:59:14to lose the fear of death and start to move
- 1:59:16into this more reverent state of sovereignty where we understand
- 1:59:19that we are fully resourced, not by Elon Musk's minimum
- 1:59:24wage of half a million dollars. We are resourced by
- 1:59:27nature itself, by life itself. Because we are cellular creatures,
- 1:59:30we had to be fully resourced to occur in our
- 1:59:33mother's womb. We needed no money to take one cell
- 1:59:37into 70 trillion cells inhabited by 14 quadrillion mitochondria that
- 1:59:40concentrate sunlight 10,000 times brighter than the sun. That happened
- 1:59:44without money.
- 1:59:45Speaker 1: So this all sounds great, but how do you get
- 1:59:48the money to get a saw to cut the wood
- 1:59:50to make your house?
- 1:59:52Speaker 2: Why did the money have to enter it?
- 1:59:54Speaker 1: Well, how did you get the saw? Did you make
- 1:59:55the saw? Yeah. Okay. What kind of saw do you have?
- 1:59:58Do you have a circular saw? Do you have one
- 2:00:00of those nice, you know, those nice ones, sawzalls?
- 2:00:05Speaker 2: Why would we need money for that either?
- 2:00:07Speaker 1: Well, someone's got to build it. So someone's got to
- 2:00:09make a factory. So someone's got to make the internal
- 2:00:11engine that spins that wheel a thousand times a minute
- 2:00:14or whatever it is.
- 2:00:16Speaker 2: And so all you're talking about is a concentration of energy.
- 2:00:19Speaker 1: Right. But someone's got to put the resources in to
- 2:00:22do that. They have to source the steel.
- 2:00:24Speaker 2: What if it was nature that put the resources in
- 2:00:26instead of the Fed? So the Fed's printing fake money. Right.
- 2:00:30Speaker 1: But you've got to motivate people to innovate a thing.
- 2:00:33Speaker 2: Do you have to motivate people to create?
- 2:00:35Speaker 1: Well, certain things. There's a reason why people do it
- 2:00:39because they know they can make some money off of it.
- 2:00:42Speaker 2: Because they're currently stuck in them. matrix where they believe
- 2:00:45the stuff is coming from money?
- 2:00:46Speaker 1: DeWalt power tools, right? When they make those, there's engineers,
- 2:00:49there's a bunch of designers, they all work for money
- 2:00:52and they all like figure out how much electricity it's
- 2:00:55going to run on, what the engine's going to be,
- 2:00:57how fast it has to be, what's the best steel
- 2:00:59for the blades. There's money involved in all that because
- 2:01:03they have to have a warehouse where they have to
- 2:01:04build it. They have to pay people to pay their healthcare,
- 2:01:06pay their dental. They have to take care of them.
- 2:01:09Maybe they have a union. OK, so you've got union
- 2:01:11dues and fees. There's a bunch of money being exchanged
- 2:01:14because people want a reason to show up at work
- 2:01:17to do the work to make these saws because they're
- 2:01:19very difficult to make. It takes multiple people. There's a
- 2:01:23whole chain of different material science people that have to
- 2:01:27be involved.
- 2:01:28Speaker 2: That's perfect. So you just gave a perfect synopsis of
- 2:01:31the last 200 years.
- 2:01:33Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 2:01:33Speaker 2: And so the Industrial Revolution.
- 2:01:34Speaker 1: But that's how you make a house. That's how you
- 2:01:36make this table. Like people have to work.
- 2:01:38Speaker 2: But we built houses and castles and pyramids that were
- 2:01:41much greater than any house built today without the money.
- 2:01:44Speaker 1: Yeah, but they had something, okay? Like houses, for sure
- 2:01:49they had money. Like which houses? Like if you go
- 2:01:51back 400 years, 500 years ago, they definitely had money.
- 2:01:53Speaker 2: No, 10,000 years ago.
- 2:01:54Speaker 1: They were paying people. Okay. Pyramids. It's a good question.
- 2:01:57Speaker 2: Did they build that with money?
- 2:01:58Speaker 1: We really don't know.
- 2:01:59Speaker 2: They just had a lot of money, so they built
- 2:02:00a pyramid?
- 2:02:00Speaker 1: Well, we don't know how they sourced the resources, and
- 2:02:04we don't know how they got the people to do
- 2:02:06the work, and we don't know what the technology was
- 2:02:08involved in terms of planning. We really don't know.
- 2:02:13Speaker 2: But I do know what it wasn't. which was something
- 2:02:15like the Fed.
- 2:02:16Speaker 1: It probably wasn't that.
- 2:02:18Speaker 2: And so it's not an abstract monetary system that has
- 2:02:21nothing to do with life.
- 2:02:23Speaker 1: Right. Well, yeah, we don't know, right? But we would
- 2:02:27assume that it would be more sophisticated than that because
- 2:02:29the pyramid is more sophisticated than that. We would like
- 2:02:31to think that it would be different. We are also
- 2:02:35trapped in thinking that the system that we currently find
- 2:02:38ourselves operating in is the only way human beings can operate.
- 2:02:41This is my belief about the pyramids and about a
- 2:02:44lot of these ancient structures. I think we assume that
- 2:02:49because we are on a specific direction in terms of
- 2:02:52technological innovation, that this is the only direction that human
- 2:02:55beings could have ever gone. And I have a feeling
- 2:02:58that that is absolutely not the case. And I think
- 2:03:00the pyramids are the best example of that. I think
- 2:03:02they went in a different direction. We don't know what
- 2:03:05direction that was because I think you know, along the
- 2:03:09lines of what Graham believes and what Randall Carlson believes
- 2:03:12and a lot of these other folks that there was
- 2:03:14some sort of a great cataclysm. And this is the
- 2:03:17source of the flood myths that exists in all ancient religions.
- 2:03:21Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 2:03:21Speaker 1: And this is somewhere around 11,000 plus years ago.
- 2:03:24Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 2:03:25Speaker 1: And I think that probably wiped out a lot of
- 2:03:28information on how things were made and what they did
- 2:03:31and why they were doing it the way they did it.
- 2:03:33And I think modern archaeology just saying, you know, oh,
- 2:03:36they use sand and push stones. Like you can go
- 2:03:39fuck yourself. You go do that, bitch. You go figure
- 2:03:43out how to carry a 500 ton stone through the mountains,
- 2:03:48hundreds of miles away. Go fuck yourself. You can't, you're
- 2:03:52lying to me. You're pretending to be an expert and
- 2:03:54you're lying to me because you're not willing to say
- 2:03:57this baffles us to no end. We have no understanding
- 2:04:01of what tools were used in order to create these
- 2:04:04incredibly symmetrical statues. Never, never, Forget about the pyramid itself.
- 2:04:09Forget about the things that– are you aware of Filippo
- 2:04:13Biondi and his work out of Italy? The stuff that
- 2:04:16they're finding underneath the pyramids is baffling.
- 2:04:20Speaker 2: Baffling. The LIDAR systems over there.
- 2:04:22Speaker 1: Baffling. 20 meters in diameter, huge columns with spirals wrapped
- 2:04:28around them. Like what's that? Why does it go a
- 2:04:32kilometer into the earth? This is crazy.
- 2:04:35Speaker 2: Is it crazy or is it actually something we're actually
- 2:04:37living the truth of?
- 2:04:38Speaker 1: Well, I have a feeling it was an insanely advanced
- 2:04:41society that existed there. And I think there's just not
- 2:04:45a lot of evidence because the cataclysmic event of 11,000
- 2:04:48years ago was probably so destructive that very few people survived.
- 2:04:54And the people that did survive, they just had stories
- 2:04:58and they just– they had survival skills. And they had
- 2:05:01to live in whatever way was possible in order to
- 2:05:05carry on the human race. But I think all semblance
- 2:05:08of a technologically sophisticated society that existed pre-11,000 years ago
- 2:05:13was all but wiped out. And I think that's why
- 2:05:16society reemerges around 6,000 years ago. And I think that's
- 2:05:20what that is. It's a reemerging. And it's not a
- 2:05:22coincidence that all these societies that did emerge around 6,000
- 2:05:27plus years ago, all of them have this flood myth.
- 2:05:30They all have these stories of these cataclysms because that
- 2:05:32story was passed on generation after generation, all the people
- 2:05:35that survived. And what we're getting is the ultimate game
- 2:05:38of telephone. We're getting the ultimate game of people telling
- 2:05:42a story and then you tell a story and then
- 2:05:44by the time it gets to Jamie, who knows what's missing?
- 2:05:47Who knows what's been added? Who knows what pharaoh has
- 2:05:51added his touch to it or what king has decided
- 2:05:54that this part can't be in there because it doesn't
- 2:05:56jive with this particular religious text that I believe in?
- 2:06:00It's a real problem. It's a real problem when we
- 2:06:02go back and we try to figure out what happened
- 2:06:04in history. But the things that should confound everyone and
- 2:06:08should absolutely remind you that we don't know is the pyramids.
- 2:06:13They should just remind you. Look at that. Shut the
- 2:06:16fuck up. There's no way you know. You don't know
- 2:06:19what was going on. We could only make guesses and
- 2:06:22we have to be very open-minded when we make these
- 2:06:25guesses because the sheer scale of these fantastic creations– And
- 2:06:30not just them, the labyrinths that go underneath it, the
- 2:06:33one that has this enormous 40-meter-long metallic object that's under
- 2:06:38the ground that they don't know what the fuck it is.
- 2:06:41Herodotus talked about these labyrinths. Like these are greater than Giza,
- 2:06:45he said. Like what were these people doing and how
- 2:06:49did they do it? We don't know.
- 2:06:54Speaker 2: You have such an important couple of words in there.
- 2:06:57One of them is this knowing concept.
- 2:06:59Speaker 1: Yes.
- 2:07:01Speaker 2: If we continue to try to make stories out of
- 2:07:05our mind to explain the world we live in, the
- 2:07:07cosmos and in all of its complexities or the human
- 2:07:10body and its miraculous thing, we're going to end up
- 2:07:12with very disempowered versions of reality.
- 2:07:14Speaker 1: So what should we do instead?
- 2:07:16Speaker 2: Feel it instead of know it. Okay.
- 2:07:18Speaker 1: Well, how you feel how they made the pyramids.
- 2:07:20Speaker 2: You're already doing it. I'm watching you do it because
- 2:07:23you keep looking up here every time you're like really
- 2:07:25going after the pyramids. You look way up.
- 2:07:27Speaker 1: I do that with everything when I'm trying to think. Exactly. Yeah.
- 2:07:31Speaker 2: But what's actually happening is once you've done that four
- 2:07:33or five times, your body starts putting the information in
- 2:07:37and then you start speaking from some other thing than
- 2:07:39your mind. And that's when you come up with this conviction.
- 2:07:42And I can feel it. So when my antenna is open,
- 2:07:45I can feel you state your truth through your body language,
- 2:07:49through the energy you're transmitting across this table. And I'm
- 2:07:52not listening to your words anymore. I'm feeling it. Your
- 2:07:54truth is fundamentally that pyramids exist. Things too complex. to
- 2:08:00our own human mind and technologies exist. They're here right now. Yeah.
- 2:08:04They're undeniable. You're transmitting a truth that I don't have
- 2:08:08to like work on the words that I can feel
- 2:08:10it and it lands. For so long, I was trained
- 2:08:14to look up here and I spent all of this time,
- 2:08:1717 years in academia, looking up here, trying to find
- 2:08:20my information map of like, oh, there's that piece of
- 2:08:22information and there's that piece of information. Let me put
- 2:08:24that into a story because that's what I know. I
- 2:08:29had my near-death experience in 2010. And when I experienced
- 2:08:33the peace and the opening that happens, it was a
- 2:08:35car accident in 2010. When you have that experience, you
- 2:08:39suddenly realize that what you know is a fraction of
- 2:08:43Of what you can feel. And you have so much
- 2:08:46more information at your experiential level of capacity to inform
- 2:08:51your biology than the mind will ever be able to create.
- 2:08:56And so this is where we start to live telepathically.
- 2:08:58And this could all be theoretical, but I will tell
- 2:09:01you I have seen thousands of patients in my clinics
- 2:09:04that are living this reality already. They have already gone
- 2:09:07back to telepathic communication wide open. And they are called
- 2:09:11autistic people. Autism is a neurologic development necessary at the
- 2:09:17end of a period of time when humans went into
- 2:09:19complete abstraction. Money systems went abstract, have no relationship to nature.
- 2:09:24We have medical systems that are actually chronic disease management
- 2:09:28systems that are bankrupting the world now. Five trillion dollars
- 2:09:31in a year spent on disease management in the United
- 2:09:33States alone. We are bankrupting the systems that got separated
- 2:09:37from nature. They are going to collapse. They are going
- 2:09:40to fail and suddenly we develop a neurology that cannot
- 2:09:45be programmed with the old abstract systems and belief systems
- 2:09:47because they are feeling too much. We call it sensory
- 2:09:51processing deficits. But really what it is is a mind
- 2:09:54that's no longer gated with excuses. with defense mechanisms, with
- 2:10:00tolerance levels of cognitive dissonance.
- 2:10:03Speaker 1: Is this why– have you seen that– there's one young
- 2:10:06boy who flew over Manhattan in a helicopter and then
- 2:10:10he drew the entire skyline like completely accurately just from
- 2:10:16his memory.
- 2:10:17Speaker 2: Yeah. And it's a project that's become known as the
- 2:10:21telepathy tapes. It's a great example of it.
- 2:10:23Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 2:10:24Speaker 2: And I was on their second– Season of that, talking
- 2:10:27through what I experienced in clinic, is that we now
- 2:10:30have not just a theory of telepathic communication. We have
- 2:10:36a lived experience between thousands of people that are in
- 2:10:40there between space, between the words. They are traveling to
- 2:10:44a unified location that they all agree exists, which is
- 2:10:46called the Hill. And so they are having an experience
- 2:10:52in which massive amounts of information are being transmitted back
- 2:10:55and forth. And they cannot be programmed with death is
- 2:10:59bad and things. They can't believe any of the abstract
- 2:11:02things we've been taught because they feel too much. The
- 2:11:06reason I became so clear on this was total accident
- 2:11:09in my clinic, which is the only way new ideas
- 2:11:11come along is complete accidents. Because when we do scientific research,
- 2:11:16it's way too linear. We see something. We're like, well,
- 2:11:18if that's happened, then this must be the way it is. Well,
- 2:11:21if I just saw that, then this must be a way.
- 2:11:23So we do these linear things. you know, knowledge-based systems.
- 2:11:27And so we get nowhere. We go in circles in, well,
- 2:11:30cancer must be here. We've known cancer wasn't the problem.
- 2:11:32We knew that cancer was a metabolic symptom, a symptom
- 2:11:35of metabolic collapse a hundred years ago. So well-defined in
- 2:11:39medical literature, everything else. Otto Werberg was the guy who
- 2:11:42like broke the whole news in the 1920s. So here
- 2:11:45we are a hundred years later, still thinking like cancer
- 2:11:47is coming out of the woodwork and attacking healthy human bodies.
- 2:11:49So we go on these linear things. What we are
- 2:11:53forgetting is these leaps in awareness. A much bigger antenna
- 2:11:57system is available to us. And you only get there
- 2:12:01when you finally surrender your knowledge base and you start
- 2:12:04to feel what's happening in front of you. And so
- 2:12:06I was taught that there was a disease called autism
- 2:12:08that was affecting our children. And for years, I helped
- 2:12:11manage these people in clinics and everywhere they showed up
- 2:12:15in the medical system. I saw it as a disease
- 2:12:17and my linear mind was always like, I got to
- 2:12:20fix that. Maybe if I do this, I could fix
- 2:12:23the human brain. Maybe if we flip this switch, it
- 2:12:25will work. Maybe if we put this chemical in their body,
- 2:12:27we can change their neurochemistry and get them to be
- 2:12:30able to tolerate a day. My clinic that I launched
- 2:12:34in 2010 was called Revolution Health Center, rural clinic, town
- 2:12:38of 550 people, no resources monetarily. There was no reason
- 2:12:43this was going to become an explosive hub of innovation.
- 2:12:47if you measured it by money. I was hemorrhaging money.
- 2:12:49I was not making money as a doctor at all.
- 2:12:51Rural doctor had left the hallowed halls and the marble
- 2:12:54halls of academia. And I started seeing autistic kids a
- 2:12:58lot in these rural environments and inner city or urban
- 2:13:02environments where we have these really high penetrance of autism.
- 2:13:05And it's not being diagnosed because they don't have the
- 2:13:06resources to bring the attention to the child's five, seven
- 2:13:09years old. And by that time, there's been no resources
- 2:13:12brought to the kids. So lots of undiagnosed autistic neurology
- 2:13:16out there. So I was seeing a lot of in
- 2:13:18clinic and these kids are heavily affected and the suffering
- 2:13:21is kind of through the roof. They are hitting their
- 2:13:24head against a wall six, eight hours a day. They
- 2:13:26have a callus on their forehead from rhythmically hitting their head,
- 2:13:30striking their head against a wall. And when they get upset,
- 2:13:33somebody comes in their environment, stresses them. They start smearing
- 2:13:36feces and blood on the walls. It is from parenting aspect,
- 2:13:40the most horrific hell you can possibly live in. The
- 2:13:44amount of suffering being expressed. And so these kids with
- 2:13:48highly affected autism are coming in my clinic and they
- 2:13:50can't even sit in front of you. They run around
- 2:13:52in the clinic room and they can't make eye contact,
- 2:13:55can't make physical. They're feeling too much and they'll go
- 2:13:57hide in a corner, hit their head against the wall,
- 2:14:00stim somehow. They're stimming their body until the chaos of
- 2:14:03everything they're taking in is shut down to one signal
- 2:14:06of pain. So this is an intense way to see
- 2:14:09a human being. And this kid's four years old sitting
- 2:14:12in front of you and this mother is more exhausted
- 2:14:14than you've ever seen a human being. And so we
- 2:14:17started trying to like go into the woodwork of like
- 2:14:19what resources are we not thinking of here? And by
- 2:14:21this time, I was starting to be exposed to Native
- 2:14:23American indigenous practices and new energetic therapies, Ibrahim Kareem stuff
- 2:14:28out of Egypt. And it was like, OK, show me something.
- 2:14:31Give me some tool here. And we stumbled upon this
- 2:14:36very simple tool which is called emotion code therapy. And
- 2:14:39it's a simple way of bringing the mind into awareness
- 2:14:42of where an emotion is stored inside of itself and
- 2:14:44then you run a magnet over the forehead. over the
- 2:14:47top of the head to reset the magnetic pull of
- 2:14:49the water around the brain. And it changes the neurochemistry.
- 2:14:53And so it was a powerful tool. I was super
- 2:14:55excited about it. But most of these kids coming in
- 2:14:57so affected wouldn't even get close enough for me to
- 2:14:59do the therapy. So we started doing it on the
- 2:15:02moms to show the kid, hey, this is safe. And
- 2:15:04they'd come in and get a couple of treatment. After
- 2:15:07two years of this, we started to realize all of
- 2:15:09the kids were improving before we ever got that treatment installed.
- 2:15:14They were improving when mom got treated. That started to
- 2:15:18make me realize they're not expressing a personal experience. They're
- 2:15:21expressing a field effect. Their intent is wide open. And
- 2:15:24when we removed mom's emotional stressors, the kid got better.
- 2:15:29And so we started treating everybody in the field. And
- 2:15:33a heavily autistic child will require three to five full-time
- 2:15:37efforts to get it. So they got a grandma, two aunties,
- 2:15:40an uncle, two brothers that are taking care of the kid.
- 2:15:43And we started treating the whole field. Like anybody who
- 2:15:45has touched with this kid in a week, we want
- 2:15:47to see them. We want to clear their emotional field.
- 2:15:51The effect was just undeniably effective. Every time you cleared
- 2:15:55another individual whose emotional field was being felt by the kid,
- 2:15:58the kid improved. And so what I started to realize
- 2:16:02is these kids, because they are a wide open antenna,
- 2:16:05That cannot damp themselves down. They don't have the filters
- 2:16:08that would allow them to survive in an abstract fake
- 2:16:11environment that's artificial through and through. They cannot do it.
- 2:16:15And so all they can do is feel everything. And
- 2:16:18now they're feeling what those native cultures must have felt
- 2:16:21when Europeans showed up for the first time. Neurologic systems
- 2:16:25that are wide open that suddenly see an abstract human
- 2:16:30being and the suffering they are in will collapse its
- 2:16:34own neurology. will overwhelm the system. And so the same
- 2:16:38thing that our autistic are showing today, I believe is
- 2:16:40very similar to what it must have felt like to
- 2:16:42be an Inca or Mayan in your habitat and suddenly
- 2:16:46see the field disrupted by a stress signal, an unbelievable
- 2:16:52signal that just broke the whole field. So we have
- 2:16:56stories about floods, but we're still thinking of the flood
- 2:16:59as a physical wave of water that came over. Is
- 2:17:03it possible that the flood was actually a neurologic experience
- 2:17:07of overwhelm that wiped out the entire memory bank? Did
- 2:17:12we do that when a sector of humanity truly experienced
- 2:17:16and believed itself to be separate from nature for a moment?
- 2:17:19Was there an original abandonment?
- 2:17:20Speaker 1: I don't think it has. They're mutually exclusive. And I
- 2:17:24think there's a lot of physical evidence that the impact,
- 2:17:27the Younger Dryas impact theory specifically is real.
- 2:17:30Speaker 2: I agree there's water. I agree water goes up and down.
- 2:17:32I agree that there's massive floods. But when we talk
- 2:17:35about the Inca and the Aztec, there was no flood
- 2:17:36at that time. So what I'm really getting at is,
- 2:17:39is it possible there's something other than just physical floods?
- 2:17:43Can there be energetic floods?
- 2:17:44Speaker 1: So in that case, these settlers coming across, not just
- 2:17:49the diseases, but just the fact that they were there.
- 2:17:51Speaker 2: They can shatter a field.
- 2:17:52Speaker 1: They're marauders. These people are coming in on horseback. They
- 2:17:56have muskets.
- 2:17:57Speaker 2: They think they've been kicked out of nature for a
- 2:17:59thousand years. They're terrified that they're going to die.
- 2:18:01Speaker 1: They're cutting people's arms off if they don't give them
- 2:18:03their weight in gold.
- 2:18:04Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 2:18:04Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 2:18:05Speaker 2: They're breaking the field.
- 2:18:07Speaker 1: Yeah. You've read some of the depictions. There was– Was
- 2:18:11it a bishop or– someone traveled with– some religious person
- 2:18:18traveled with Columbus' first crew and wrote these horrific depictions
- 2:18:22of what they did to the native people that they found.
- 2:18:25And once they found that these people had gold, that
- 2:18:27they demanded their way in gold, were cutting their arms
- 2:18:30off and dashing babies' heads on rocks. They were– horrific stuff.
- 2:18:34I forget the guy who it was, but it was
- 2:18:36some religious figure who traveled with them. Here he is.
- 2:18:42Bartolome de las Casas. So he's a Spanish lawyer, clergyman, writer,
- 2:18:47and activist best known for his work as a historian
- 2:18:50and social reformer. So this is the guy. And so
- 2:18:56he recorded what the Spanish settlers did. He described and
- 2:19:00rallied against the atrocities committed by the conquistadors against the
- 2:19:04indigenous people, arriving as one of the first Spanish settlers
- 2:19:07in America. Los Casas initially participated in the colonial economy
- 2:19:12built on forced indigenous labor, but eventually felt compelled to
- 2:19:15oppose the abuses committed by European colonists against the indigenous population.
- 2:19:21So he's one of the reasons why we know that
- 2:19:22we probably shouldn't be celebrating Columbus Day. He probably wasn't
- 2:19:25a great guy.
- 2:19:28Speaker 2: And I wish it was distant history, but it's still happening.
- 2:19:32The cartels are still doing that down and throughout this
- 2:19:34whole region that we're talking about. And they're still beheading
- 2:19:36people with machetes and they're still And we, as the
- 2:19:41United States, have killed more people than any other peoples
- 2:19:44in history. We have been a machine of death for
- 2:19:47250 years like none other. And we've done it in
- 2:19:49the name of freedom. We've done it in the name of,
- 2:19:51you know, our God is better than your God. And
- 2:19:54so we have used these altruistic shields to become the
- 2:19:58biggest death machine in the world. An incredible medical paper
- 2:20:01was published just recently in The Lancet. And it looked
- 2:20:04at the number of global deaths from just U.S. citizens.
- 2:20:08economic sanctions over the last 40 years. And the number
- 2:20:11was around 35 million people dead. 35 million people dead,
- 2:20:16not with a single tank, not with a single plane
- 2:20:19in the air, not a single drone from economic sanctions.
- 2:20:23And so when we keep telling ourselves that we need
- 2:20:26money for our own health, for our own houses, we
- 2:20:30need healthcare insurance, therefore we need money. The assurance of
- 2:20:34health will never come from a company that doesn't care
- 2:20:36about you. It will always come from biology. It will
- 2:20:39always come from an earth that allowed you to conceive
- 2:20:41in your mother's womb.
- 2:20:42Speaker 1: Well, we're in a very perverted system. If health is
- 2:20:46dependent upon these organizations whose primary focus is to make
- 2:20:50the most money possible, that's crazy. And then recommend to
- 2:20:54you drugs that you absolutely don't need and then hide
- 2:20:57studies that these drugs are damaging to you.
- 2:21:00Speaker 2: It's crazy unless you think that everything comes from money
- 2:21:03and then it makes sense.
- 2:21:05Speaker 1: Yeah. Well, it makes sense that, you know, the old adage,
- 2:21:09money is the root of all evil. When did that
- 2:21:12get written? Who wrote that? What quote's that from? I
- 2:21:15know that quote so well, I have no idea who
- 2:21:17wrote it. Do you have any idea?
- 2:21:19Speaker 2: That's the oldest adage in politics.
- 2:21:21Speaker 1: I wonder who's credited with that. They probably stole it
- 2:21:25from somebody else. Does it say? The Bible. The Bible.
- 2:21:34There you go. Ah! Timothy 1, 6, 10.
- 2:21:40Speaker 2: Wow.
- 2:21:41Speaker 1: There you go.
- 2:21:42Speaker 2: So that would have been Aramaic. Timothy was speaking Aramaic.
- 2:21:46Speaker 1: Wow.
- 2:21:46Speaker 2: So Aramaic was a critical language that has been forgotten
- 2:21:49in our Christian world of New Testament, Old Testaments. But
- 2:21:52most of it is written or spoken in Aramaic, not
- 2:21:54Hebrew or not Greek.
- 2:21:55Speaker 1: That's the Dead Sea Scrolls. It's all in Aramaic.
- 2:21:58Speaker 2: All in Aramaic.
- 2:21:59Speaker 1: The Dead Sea Scrolls are bananas.
- 2:22:00Speaker 2: And if you look at the language of Aramaic, then
- 2:22:03we're getting a layer or two back from abstraction where
- 2:22:05there's actually shape to those words. that are actually transmitting information.
- 2:22:09Speaker 1: There's something about looking at that written language as well
- 2:22:13that's really compelling.
- 2:22:15Speaker 2: Your antenna's up.
- 2:22:16Speaker 1: Yeah, especially like old languages. There's something about like old Hindu.
- 2:22:21You look at like ancient Hindu scripts, ancient Tibetan scripts.
- 2:22:24Speaker 2: Look at Farsi. Yes, Farsi too. Farsi gives me goosebumps.
- 2:22:27When I read Farsi, when you look at a Rumi
- 2:22:29poem written in Farsi, you realize he wasn't transmitting a poem.
- 2:22:34He has so much mathematical truth in a thing that's
- 2:22:37in the form. He's telling you geometry. He's telling you
- 2:22:42sacred geometry, the fabric of the universe in the form
- 2:22:45of a language that is not symbolic. It's a true
- 2:22:51depiction of information.
- 2:22:52Speaker 1: It really is interesting that these ancient languages are so beautiful.
- 2:22:57Ancient Hebrew is another one.
- 2:22:58Speaker 2: It's beautiful.
- 2:22:59Speaker 1: You look at it like this is wild to look at.
- 2:23:02And then when you find out that ancient Hebrew, they
- 2:23:05didn't have numbers. So the letters doubled as numbers. And
- 2:23:08so there was actually numerical value in words that were missing.
- 2:23:13Like when the translations got to Latin and Greek and
- 2:23:18eventually English, like we lost what they were trying. There
- 2:23:21was something that they were saying that if they could
- 2:23:23read it, they knew. There was more context to these
- 2:23:27words that just simply– You're talking about a bush. You're
- 2:23:30talking about a tree. You're talking about a lake. There's
- 2:23:33something to it. It's really, really interesting stuff because it's
- 2:23:37like why did language get less complex as it got
- 2:23:41more recent? That seems strange.
- 2:23:44Speaker 2: It got more symbolic. So it wasn't necessarily the complexity
- 2:23:47that was the problem. It was that it separated itself
- 2:23:49from the actual information. So now the word tree is
- 2:23:54a symbol of something that actually has never been a noun.
- 2:23:57So now we have a word that has no movement
- 2:23:59in it. It's a noun. It does not express movement.
- 2:24:03And we now assess, you know, 60% of the surface
- 2:24:08of the earth as a non-living, non-moving thing called a tree.
- 2:24:13Whereas all native cultures, when you ask them, what is that?
- 2:24:16They will use a verb. And so what they're saying
- 2:24:18is that is treeing. That's treeing. That's treeing. Really?
- 2:24:23Speaker 1: They use verbs?
- 2:24:24Speaker 2: It's all verbs. English was the first language to come
- 2:24:27around and characterize everything as a noun. And that's why
- 2:24:31it became the language of science is because science broke
- 2:24:34its relationship to motion. It wanted everything to be static, therefore, studyable, therefore,
- 2:24:39we could control its variables. And so every time somebody
- 2:24:42shows you a cancer study, shows you a cardiovascular disease study,
- 2:24:45I did this for years. I've got a peer-reviewed science,
- 2:24:47everything else. I was literally having to break every element
- 2:24:51of nature so that I could prove that my protein,
- 2:24:53Coop TF1, was the most important thing for cancer. I
- 2:24:57had to break every relationship to nature that that cancer
- 2:25:01cell could possibly have before I could study that protein.
- 2:25:04And so everything that we call trust the science these
- 2:25:07days is an aberration. It's a symbol of life. It
- 2:25:12is not life itself. And so science itself has become
- 2:25:15this noun-structured thing. belief system that has no no flow
- 2:25:20in it there's no verbing happening in science it's there's
- 2:25:24a bacteria there's a mitochondria there's a human cell and
- 2:25:27we think of those as three different things no it
- 2:25:30is life lifing and what it's doing is finding more
- 2:25:33and more ways to stack complexity to get more and
- 2:25:36more light concentrated per cubic centimeter and everything is in
- 2:25:40one relationship there is no tree human thing there's life
- 2:25:45doing biosis, interconnected relationships. And this is getting very fun
- 2:25:51now is like we actually got the science now to
- 2:25:53prove that we were wrong. And so we think, okay,
- 2:25:55here's human DNA, double helix, Watson and Crick. This is
- 2:26:00Bible of the biologic kingdom now. Everything comes from DNA
- 2:26:05and human DNA is much better than bacterial DNA because
- 2:26:08bacteria just have little circle loops of DNA. We have
- 2:26:11this beautiful spiraling double helix. This is Got to be
- 2:26:14the best in the land. Then we start in 1992.
- 2:26:19We set out to decode the human genome. And we thought, well,
- 2:26:23this is going to be amazing. It's going to be
- 2:26:25a 40-year project because we knew how many genes we
- 2:26:28could decode each year with our genetic sequencers. So we
- 2:26:31thought we were going to have to find 400,000 genes
- 2:26:33because we knew by this time that we had 400,000
- 2:26:36different proteins in the human body. So we're like, well,
- 2:26:39we need to find a gene for each of those
- 2:26:40because we knew that a gene made an RNA that
- 2:26:43then made a protein. We knew how it worked. Watson
- 2:26:46started us off. 1996 rolls around and the team finishes
- 2:26:5025 years ahead of schedule because there were not 400,000 genes.
- 2:26:55There was 25,000 genes. Everybody laughed, said, you screwed it up.
- 2:26:59Three more teams finished over the next two years. The
- 2:27:02first team was wrong. There was not 25,000 genes. There
- 2:27:04was 19,000 genes. They had miscounted because they had dual
- 2:27:08counted some of them. We have less than 20,000 human
- 2:27:11genes that make a human body. The reason why that's
- 2:27:14so embarrassing is because a flea has 30,000 genes. A
- 2:27:19fruit fly has 13,000 genes. So you sit somewhere between
- 2:27:22a flea and a fruit fly genetically. In fact, you're
- 2:27:25a little closer to the fruit fly than the flea.
- 2:27:27That's probably why the flea can jump 40 times its
- 2:27:28height and you can't. But there is something sitting here
- 2:27:32right in front of us at the genetic level saying
- 2:27:35to be human– Is not to be a species. And
- 2:27:39so what is. all that DNA doing? There's so much
- 2:27:42DNA in a human. How can we have so few
- 2:27:44of that, how small of that information actually coding a gene?
- 2:27:47And it turns out the number is 1.5%. 1.5% of
- 2:27:48the DNA held inside of a human cell is actually
- 2:27:50coding for a gene. 98.5% we ended up calling junk DNA.
- 2:27:59So it was called junk DNA for 25 years until
- 2:28:01somebody started to realize that we were preserving our junk
- 2:28:05DNA more carefully and passing that to our young than
- 2:28:08we were the genes. And so there's something super important
- 2:28:11being preserved by biology from generation to generation, all this
- 2:28:14junk DNA. What we now have found out is the mitochondria. Again,
- 2:28:18200 mitochondria, many different species variants living inside a single
- 2:28:22human cell because they change their genetic sequencing very rapidly.
- 2:28:26And so you got maybe a couple hundred different versions
- 2:28:29of a mitochondria sitting in a single human brain cell. Those,
- 2:28:34it turns out, are storing their genetic information in the
- 2:28:37double helix of the human cell. And they go and
- 2:28:40access inside the human nucleus the gene that is theirs
- 2:28:44for their own reproductive capacity and pull an RNA out
- 2:28:47of that, come and decode a protein so they can
- 2:28:50reproduce every three days for your entire life. So the
- 2:28:53mitochondria are storing their genes in the human cells. This was...
- 2:28:57This doesn't fit any biologic map of Watson and Crick.
- 2:29:00You're starting to realize there's a collective expression in the
- 2:29:04antenna of being human. And that's what DNA ends up
- 2:29:07being is it is actually an antenna system that's taking
- 2:29:09in information and then unwinding and rewinding to reveal different
- 2:29:13genetic sequences to all of life within a human ecosystem.
- 2:29:18So we are now convinced genetically that it's impossible that
- 2:29:22a human is a species else would be somewhere between
- 2:29:24a flea and a fruit fly. The magic of being
- 2:29:26human is in the 98.5% of our DNA that doesn't
- 2:29:29code for a human gene, that is likely coding for
- 2:29:33all of life. That's what it means to be a
- 2:29:35keystone species genetically is we are the life. We are
- 2:29:39the life record. It is happening through us, in us,
- 2:29:41around us. Life is ascending through a biologic matrix that
- 2:29:45we call a human body, but it is not a species.
- 2:29:48It's an ecosystem. And 70 years ago, we started the
- 2:29:51antibiotic era and we started wiping out the diversity inside
- 2:29:55of a human body. And so the toxicity of herbicides
- 2:29:59and pesticides have very little to do to their impact
- 2:30:02on a human cell. It has to do with the
- 2:30:05impact on the entire ecosystem that's expressing itself through this
- 2:30:08massive genomic library that is so big we can't even
- 2:30:12wrap our head around. If we strung you end to end,
- 2:30:15you've got around 50 to 70 trillion human cells. Each
- 2:30:19of those cells has about a meter of DNA bundled
- 2:30:22inside of every nucleus of every cell If we strung
- 2:30:25you end to end, we could wrap Joe around the
- 2:30:28circumference of the planet right at the equator two million times.
- 2:30:33Your DNA wraps around planet Earth two million times. The
- 2:30:37amount of genetic information in there is plenty to hold
- 2:30:41a record and a code for all of life on Earth.
- 2:30:45It will not surprise me that in the coming years,
- 2:30:48we start to realize the entire code is here. We
- 2:30:51found out just recently that you could take the human
- 2:30:53genome and rearrange it into 178 puzzle pieces and spell
- 2:30:56pig perfectly. The genome is this warehouse of life of earth.
- 2:31:03It's not belonging to a human species. And I believe
- 2:31:07that this is where we are going to really spend
- 2:31:09a lot of our new excitement around what it means
- 2:31:11to be human as we start to move into our
- 2:31:13next era. The antibiotic era is coming to an end.
- 2:31:16It's crippled our biology and our fertility to a point
- 2:31:19where we cannot continue it.
- 2:31:20Speaker 1: Well, how do we move past it?
- 2:31:22Speaker 2: We become biologic again. We're going to end the chemical
- 2:31:25antibiotic era and we're going to move into the biological renaissance.
- 2:31:30You talked a couple of times about this moment of
- 2:31:34remembering the renaissance that we can all point to. Sudden
- 2:31:39explosion in math, science, art, massive. It doesn't make any
- 2:31:45sense what was happening in 50 years before the Renaissance
- 2:31:48and then the Renaissance and what would happen in the
- 2:31:50next 200 years. It was a parametric explosion of creativity
- 2:31:55of human capacity, human mind capacity, creativity.
- 2:31:58Speaker 1: What does it coincide with?
- 2:32:00Speaker 2: A remembrance. The antenna opened up. And so this is
- 2:32:05the moment we're about to reenter now as we're going
- 2:32:07into the next Renaissance. And it's happening in people like Dr.
- 2:32:10Ibrahim Karim. He's suddenly remembering the technology of He's remembering
- 2:32:17the technology of waveform and its influence on biology. He's
- 2:32:22not in there inventing this stuff. I've sat with him
- 2:32:26in cafes and I'll say, well, what about this disease here?
- 2:32:30And he goes just for a split second into his antennae,
- 2:32:35draws the shape on the napkin, slides it across the table.
- 2:32:39He's not producing this stuff. He's remembering this stuff. The
- 2:32:44antenna is opening up on humankind right now and autism
- 2:32:47is our supercharged version of that. The autistic neurology is
- 2:32:51so wide open that we're going to have no choice
- 2:32:53but to start to remember everything. A kid flies over
- 2:32:57New York once can remember the entire scape. That's what
- 2:33:00our antenna is capable of doing. Autistic children are not
- 2:33:05abnormally genius. They are minds that are unfiltered and bodies
- 2:33:09that are still in the context of nature. They have
- 2:33:12not separated. When I sit with an indigenous elder in Africa,
- 2:33:16the Khoi people, the Khoi have been around for 300,000 years.
- 2:33:20They have an unbroken oral history for 100,000 years with
- 2:33:25the exception of that blank point 11,000 to 7,000 years ago.
- 2:33:29And so they also suffered the amnesia. But 100,000 years
- 2:33:33of an oral tradition is spectacular. It's twice as long
- 2:33:35as anything else on the planet, Aboriginal 40,000, Native Americans 40,000,
- 2:33:38Deep Peru 30,000. 100,000 years of uninterrupted information. You sit
- 2:33:44with one of these elders and they have all of
- 2:33:47the experiential traits that the autistic community has. They can
- 2:33:51go to the hill. They can communicate telepathically with the
- 2:33:54forest system. They can tell you what the panther is saying.
- 2:33:56They can tell you what the moon cycle is saying,
- 2:33:58not because they've studied it, because they're literally just listening
- 2:34:00to the information. They're receiving the information. This new renaissance
- 2:34:04that's beginning is a biological reconnection that is going to
- 2:34:07be available to us. So much information is That we're
- 2:34:10not going to sit here listening to podcasts of wondering,
- 2:34:13scratching our heads about how did the pyramids happen? We're
- 2:34:17going to start doing it again because there's a cellular
- 2:34:20understanding of how water and carbon work, how much work
- 2:34:25you can do instantaneously when you master the ability of
- 2:34:27the antenna of a human being to organize matter. The
- 2:34:34pyramids were not built. They were organized, if that makes sense.
- 2:34:37I believe that when you feel what's happening inside a pyramid,
- 2:34:40this was all an energetic expression. This is a frequency
- 2:34:45wavelength expression of something that was energetically priority here. It's
- 2:34:50an emergent reality that is made by biology when it
- 2:34:53feels the whole field.
- 2:34:56Speaker 1: But how? How do they put it together?
- 2:35:00Speaker 2: So the people that are remembering this, that are starting
- 2:35:03to feel what is this, they did it through mind.
- 2:35:06They did it literally through transmitting information into the natural materials.
- 2:35:11And so they would cut with their mind with frequency
- 2:35:16as a transmitter to cut the stones, to organize stones,
- 2:35:19to move anti-gravity and everything else. And you're bringing this
- 2:35:22to everybody's attention all the time. These UAPs and everything
- 2:35:25else that are rushing around here, Gravity only exists in
- 2:35:29one plane of reality here. And so there's anti-gravity experiences
- 2:35:35that are the process of waves interrupting the relationship between
- 2:35:39two bodies. That's gravity. So gravity is the distance plus
- 2:35:43the mass, or the mass squared plus the distance between the,
- 2:35:46or multiplied by the distance between the two bodies there.
- 2:35:49And so you need two bodies in a relationship to
- 2:35:52create the phenomenon of gravity. Not surprisingly, you can put
- 2:35:55a waveform between those two that interrupt that relationship. And
- 2:36:00so when you start to think this way, then UAPs
- 2:36:03and your pyramids all start to make sense. Like we're
- 2:36:07so Newtonian in our current belief system. We've forgotten how
- 2:36:11to believe in quantum physics because we became so committed
- 2:36:14to the mechanical reality that Newton offered us. Newton said
- 2:36:18this happens, therefore this happens. Everything is action and reaction,
- 2:36:23action and reaction. Maybe, or everything is creation. Is the
- 2:36:28right relationship between action and reaction actually polarity instead of
- 2:36:33one thing reacting to the other?
- 2:36:35Speaker 1: What do you think is fueling this current renaissance?
- 2:36:39Speaker 2: I think it's us getting to the breaking point of
- 2:36:41human neurology. We can no longer sustain the stories. It
- 2:36:47took so much energy for us to all believe the
- 2:36:49stories together. Everything you've ever talked about on this podcast
- 2:36:53is pushing you. I don't even know if you know
- 2:36:56you're doing this. You are pushing the human neurology to
- 2:37:00its breaking point with every podcast. You're challenging the human
- 2:37:04mind to stretch past its capacity to keep the old
- 2:37:07stories alive. You're breaking minds. That's why we love you.
- 2:37:14I have a great affection for all people who do this.
- 2:37:16And you're one of these people doing this. You are
- 2:37:19a breaker of false things. And you have an incredible
- 2:37:23device that you use all the time, which is curiosity.
- 2:37:28It just won't let you sit still. You're too fucking curious.
- 2:37:33I love this about you. Cause this is why I
- 2:37:35was excited to come to your podcast. Not so I
- 2:37:37could talk about anything. So I could feel you. I
- 2:37:41wanted to feel what this feels like. Cause this has
- 2:37:44to be one of the most freaking curious motherfuckers on
- 2:37:47the planet. What a gift to sit in front of
- 2:37:50a curious human being. There's nothing that feels better to
- 2:37:54a human neurology than sensing the other. The impregnation that Dr.
- 2:37:58Ibrahim Karim mentioned there, that field effect of two fields
- 2:38:02that come into presence together and imprint, impregnate the other one.
- 2:38:06It's your curiosity that's got everybody paying attention. We love
- 2:38:11it because you're not here to tell us you know everything.
- 2:38:14In fact, you keep challenging us that we don't know anything.
- 2:38:16You've said it five times on this one. We don't know.
- 2:38:19That feels so good to a neurology. We don't know.
- 2:38:22Speaker 1: Well, I also think many people are curious and they
- 2:38:26also want to hear from other people that are curious
- 2:38:29as well because we live in this weird world where
- 2:38:32we've been deceived into thinking that people have short attention spans.
- 2:38:36It's not true. Your attention span can be hijacked by
- 2:38:39short attention span media, but it doesn't mean you have
- 2:38:42a short attention span. Most people that I know, if
- 2:38:46there's a thing that they like, This is a thing
- 2:38:48that they're interested in. They have immense attention for it,
- 2:38:51whether it's a sporting event or a concert they go to.
- 2:38:54There's a lot of things that you have a lot
- 2:38:56of attention for. It's just it has to actually resonate
- 2:39:00with you. And people love when other people are curious
- 2:39:03because they're curious. Most people are curious.
- 2:39:05Speaker 2: All humans are curious.
- 2:39:06Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 2:39:07Speaker 2: All humans.
- 2:39:08Speaker 1: If you're not, there's something wrong.
- 2:39:09Speaker 2: You're not human.
- 2:39:11Speaker 1: Well, you just blunted. Life is Life has thrown you
- 2:39:15some curveballs and you didn't know how to duck.
- 2:39:17Speaker 2: Oh, you can definitely turn a curiosity off in a human.
- 2:39:20Speaker 1: No question.
- 2:39:20Speaker 2: You just separate them from nature long enough.
- 2:39:22Speaker 1: And you drug them, you know.
- 2:39:24Speaker 2: That's just a symptom of nature deficit disorder, I think.
- 2:39:27Speaker 1: Yeah, I think you're right.
- 2:39:28Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 2:39:28Speaker 1: And I think that's why one of the best remedies
- 2:39:32for people that are depressed is physical exercise.
- 2:39:34Speaker 2: Get them out in nature.
- 2:39:35Speaker 1: Yeah. Go out in nature.
- 2:39:36Speaker 2: Go hike and camp for seven days.
- 2:39:38Speaker 1: Do something that makes you feel alive, gets your blood
- 2:39:40pumping because that's what's supposed to happen. That's how you're
- 2:39:42supposed to exist.
- 2:39:44Speaker 2: It's been shown three nights of camping outside, never go
- 2:39:46inside for three days. Your immune system reverts 30 years.
- 2:39:50Your T cells turn back on. All your stem cells activate.
- 2:39:54We are living a blunted human experience because we separate
- 2:39:57ourselves from nature.
- 2:39:58Speaker 1: Did you ever watch the Werner Herzog documentary, Happy People? No.
- 2:40:02It's really fantastic. It's about these people that live in Siberia,
- 2:40:06and they're so happy. There's like no mental illness. And
- 2:40:09it's called Happy People, Life in the Taiga. So it's
- 2:40:12all these people that are off the Taiga River. And
- 2:40:16these people live a subsistence lifestyle. They hunt and they fish.
- 2:40:22And that's all they do. They ride around on snowmobiles.
- 2:40:25They build cabins. They live with their dogs.
- 2:40:28Speaker 2: Sounds like my life.
- 2:40:29Speaker 1: Yeah. It's quite fascinating because these people don't have any
- 2:40:33mental illness. They're all happy. They're all laughing. They get together.
- 2:40:37They drink and they have parties and they eat food
- 2:40:40together and they're laughing. And then they go about their work.
- 2:40:43And then they exist completely embedded in nature. They are nature.
- 2:40:48They're a part of it.
- 2:40:49Speaker 2: And I would offer they're not working at all. They're creating.
- 2:40:51Speaker 1: They're living.
- 2:40:52Speaker 2: They're creating.
- 2:40:52Speaker 1: They're living. Zach, this was awesome. This was really fascinating.
- 2:40:56We've got to do this again.
- 2:40:57Speaker 2: Can I show you a picture of how we got here?
- 2:40:59Speaker 1: Oh, yeah. Show me a picture of how we got here.
- 2:41:01Speaker 2: All right. Let's just– I want to go to that
- 2:41:03next slide because it's going to orient us to like
- 2:41:06what's actually happening to humankind right now.
- 2:41:08Speaker 1: Okay.
- 2:41:09Speaker 2: And so we have established clearly that nature is the
- 2:41:12context of a connected, interconnected life. And so– can you
- 2:41:17go back one slide? Oh, yeah. That one will work. Yeah. Sorry.
- 2:41:19Go ahead. That one. And so this is looking at
- 2:41:24the effect of glyphosate on ATP, which is energy production
- 2:41:28per cubic centimeter. And so this is looking at that.
- 2:41:31And this is vehicle meaning control. And so you're producing
- 2:41:34about 1,600 picomoles per milligram of ATP. These are the
- 2:41:38mitochondria turning carbon chains of carbohydrates and fatty acids back
- 2:41:42into light energy. And so you've got this massive energy potential.
- 2:41:46And then within 30 minutes of introduction to just one
- 2:41:48part per million of glyphosate, which is a common amount
- 2:41:51that you would see in a lot of your chemical
- 2:41:54farmed food systems. We've seen this all the way down
- 2:41:57to 10 parts per billion, which is a thousand times
- 2:42:00smaller quantity here. And so at these levels, though, you
- 2:42:05see a sudden collapse of the ATP production. And so
- 2:42:09now imagine in 1976, we start eating food with residues
- 2:42:12of this chemical. And suddenly we shut down light per
- 2:42:16cubic centimeter for the first time in human history, more
- 2:42:19effectively than ever, probably. And so I'm going to show
- 2:42:22you on a population scale of billions of people what
- 2:42:24happens when you start to undermine the light per cubic centimeter.
- 2:42:28And so you start at obesity in 1980s, four years
- 2:42:31after introduction of this chemical to our food system. From there,
- 2:42:34you end up seeing the collapse of the metabolism that
- 2:42:38we call diabetes. Diabetes is a condition that stems from
- 2:42:42the obesity in the liver. Obesity is not because you're
- 2:42:45eating too many calories. It's because the calories can no
- 2:42:47longer be burned at the mitochondrial level, which is where
- 2:42:50they should be ending up. So obesity happens when you're
- 2:42:52eating 2,000, 3,000 calories a day and can only burn 1,500
- 2:42:57calories a day because your mitochondria have been poisoned by
- 2:43:00an antibiotic that's killing the bacteria in the soil just
- 2:43:03as they're killing the bacteria inside your cells, which are mitochondria.
- 2:43:06And so as we started seeing these increasing levels of
- 2:43:08glyphosate heading through the system, you end up with diabetes
- 2:43:11within a few years because fat stored in the liver,
- 2:43:14which is where everything gets redirected to if it can't
- 2:43:16burn in the cell, will ultimately give you insulin resistance.
- 2:43:19As you get insulin resistance, insulin cannot get the carbohydrates
- 2:43:22into the cell anyways, and so now you're starving twice.
- 2:43:25You can't burn it at the mitochondrial level, and you
- 2:43:27can't get the sugar there. By the 1990s, we started
- 2:43:30to develop widespread allergies. The most energy-demanding system in the
- 2:43:34body is the immune system. As the immune system started
- 2:43:36to fail in its metabolic capacity, relationships started to fail,
- 2:43:41and we suddenly started to develop a reactive relationship to
- 2:43:44the foods we were eating. Wheat in 1992 starts causing
- 2:43:48a massive allergy to gluten. And the gliadin compound in
- 2:43:53there interacts with glyphosate to synergistically fracture this metabolic capacity.
- 2:43:58We don't have gluten sensitivity. We have a metabolic collapse
- 2:44:02that's called glyphosate poisoning. I'll show you the peer-reviewed science
- 2:44:05we published from that. Within a couple years of allergy,
- 2:44:09which is basically overwhelm of the immune system to your environment,
- 2:44:12you ultimately end up with autoimmune disease. This is where
- 2:44:15your body no longer can sense what's outside and what's inside,
- 2:44:18and your body becomes the enemy. So autoimmune disease is
- 2:44:21a steady destruction of your own body by your own
- 2:44:23immune system that can't tell it's you. You've lost cellular identity.
- 2:44:28Within a couple years of that, we develop neurologic conditions,
- 2:44:30ADHD and autism in our children, Alzheimer's and Parkinson's in
- 2:44:34our adults, as well as MS, ALS, and all the
- 2:44:36other neurologic degenerative conditions in the middle. In a two-year period,
- 2:44:40they all went logarithmic. By the early 2000s, we're starting
- 2:44:44to realize we're in the middle of a cancer epidemic.
- 2:44:46This is when I was at the University of Virginia
- 2:44:47developing chemotherapy. And so the cancer epidemic launches. Initially, it's
- 2:44:51really obvious leukemias, lymphomas, all these bone marrow things. And
- 2:44:54it's pretty soon by the late 2000s, it's solid tumors.
- 2:44:57It's prostate cancer, breast cancer, colon cancer, all of them
- 2:44:59going And so just this explosion of cancer. And that's
- 2:45:03not because there was more carcinogens around. It's because there
- 2:45:07was less life. There was less light per cubic centimeter.
- 2:45:10So every time we go down this ladder, we're seeing
- 2:45:13less metabolic capacity, less light per cubic centimeter. By the
- 2:45:17early 2010s, we see this collapse of fertility around the world. Today,
- 2:45:21110 countries around the world are below the fertility rate
- 2:45:26necessary for replacement. 110 countries below. The United States is
- 2:45:31way below, 1.6 instead of 2.1. Infertility goes global. By
- 2:45:36the early 2010s, endocrine disruption and genomic instability starts to occur.
- 2:45:40So these are things like methylation defects and we can
- 2:45:42no longer detox the body. So we develop stories about
- 2:45:45Lyme disease and all these conditions of infections when in
- 2:45:48fact it's just toxicity that can no longer escape the
- 2:45:51body because we don't have the repair and detox mechanisms
- 2:45:53there because the metabolism, the life, light energy per cubic
- 2:45:58centimeter is diminishing. Finally, we see the emergence of gender
- 2:46:02dysregulation happening in the womb. And so this has probably
- 2:46:05started in pockets around the world a couple of decades ago.
- 2:46:09But by the 2010s, mid-15s, we see this happening regularly.
- 2:46:14And what's happening here is the biology is staying at neutral.
- 2:46:19Every fetus ever developed in the womb of a woman
- 2:46:21starts at neutral, neither male nor female. It starts at
- 2:46:25neutral and then around 90 days of embryologic development, it
- 2:46:28requires an explosion of energy from the mitochondria within it.
- 2:46:31And it takes that 90 days really not to do
- 2:46:34anything at the human level, but you're growing the garden.
- 2:46:36You're growing the microbial garden inside the human to get
- 2:46:39ready for this massive energy discharge that's going to polarize
- 2:46:42the biology to become male or female. So to move
- 2:46:45from neutral to male or neutral to female requires this
- 2:46:48huge energetic thing that we call puberty. So the first
- 2:46:51puberty happens at 90 days in the womb. There's another
- 2:46:54one that happens late phase in utero. And then there's
- 2:46:57the more typical one you see around four or five
- 2:46:59years old where you start to see differentiation of some
- 2:47:01of the physical features of boys and girls. And then
- 2:47:03the classic one around 10 to 13 years old. And
- 2:47:06then another one around 18 to 21. And then a
- 2:47:09final burst that happens in your late 20s. So we
- 2:47:11go through all of these huge energetic discharges that create
- 2:47:15polarity that move you away from neutral to one or
- 2:47:18the other of the sexes. And this isn't like sex
- 2:47:21as a preference. This is literal neurologic expression. This is
- 2:47:26the neurology of the deep brain forming the behavioral traits
- 2:47:29of a human being to become male traits, female traits.
- 2:47:34If you've ever had two kids, I don't know if
- 2:47:35you've got kids, but I've got a daughter and a son.
- 2:47:38They're both adults now and married and thriving. But when
- 2:47:41you watch a kid develop, it's unbelievable what's pre-programmed in there.
- 2:47:46The male traits can appear by the time they're six months,
- 2:47:49nine months old. They're doing something different than their sister
- 2:47:51did at that same phase. So what we're talking about
- 2:47:54is this deep programming of the biology as it goes
- 2:47:58away from center. By the time we had this much
- 2:48:02glyphosate in the system, so this whole cascade from 1976
- 2:48:05to 2020, you're looking at this yellow line that's traveling
- 2:48:08up there. That's the amount of glyphosate sprayed into our
- 2:48:11global environment. Today, we spray 3 billion to 4 billion
- 2:48:15pounds of glyphosate into our global soils. 3 billion pounds
- 2:48:19of anything is disgusting, but this is an unbelievable amount
- 2:48:21of antibiotics. That much antibiotic has reduced the metabolic life
- 2:48:26force of our planet and our species to the point
- 2:48:28where we have a chronic disease explosion by the 1990s
- 2:48:31and infertility collapse of the species and then gender dysregulation.
- 2:48:35So this is how a species goes extinct is it
- 2:48:37loses its metabolic capacity to concentrate light energy. Light per
- 2:48:42cubic centimeter is how life occurs. Biosis is the interconnected
- 2:48:46relationships that make life possible. You undermine those relationships. You
- 2:48:50decrease the number of relationships per cubic centimeter. and you
- 2:48:53start to see this pattern evolving of a decrease in
- 2:48:57repair and regeneration. And so your rate of repair versus
- 2:49:00your rate of injury suddenly goes out of whack. And
- 2:49:04a previous rate of injury of eating bread, gluten has
- 2:49:07a slight impact on your gut behavior, slight decrease there,
- 2:49:12and you lose fidelity, and the whole thing starts to degrade.
- 2:49:17So I've spent the last 15 years of my life
- 2:49:20building systems with people around us that are already tuning
- 2:49:24into this wider antenna to say, what does biology look
- 2:49:27like fully supported? So we've created these online programs called Journey,
- 2:49:32which is journeying humanity back into natural systems to fully
- 2:49:35support not only the biology and the way it repairs
- 2:49:38and regenerates, but fully open up the antenna to remember
- 2:49:42what we were supposed to be doing here, to remember
- 2:49:44what it feels like to be between heaven and earth,
- 2:49:46to be floating in this cosmic stew of curiosity, creativity, productivity.
- 2:49:52That's what's going to make humans humans again. So when
- 2:49:54we allow our children to become between again and start
- 2:49:57to stop being programmed into machine-like behavior and start to
- 2:50:01open up their antenna, we can decide to do that
- 2:50:03as a society and proactively go about this or autism
- 2:50:07will emerge to the point where one in three children
- 2:50:09will have autism by 2035 and we do this anyways.
- 2:50:12We are going to develop a neurology to escape our
- 2:50:16mechanical history, our anti-nature, antibiotic nature is going to come
- 2:50:21to an end. Because bodies are always going to win.
- 2:50:23Nature is always going to reinvent herself out of whatever
- 2:50:26stressor is pushing on her at that moment. Right now,
- 2:50:29human behavior is pushing on nature. If we stop doing
- 2:50:32that and we let nature come back in, we get
- 2:50:35to be part of the solution. We become part of it.
