Dr. John Brandenburg – Plasma Physicist Gives Inside Look At Outsourced UFO Research – Skeptiko
www.skeptiko.com

Alex Tsakiris interviews Gordon White who interviews John Brandenburg, though not so much on UFO research per se. But they all agree about what the government does when it wants to research a subject that’s too hot to handle: It “outsources the work,” by indirectly encouraging others to do the work for them. But make […]

Theosophical Society Revisited – Skeptiko
www.skeptiko.com

Blavatsky was huge in the 19th century giving us luminaries such as Aleister Crowley, Arthur Conan Doyle, Thomas Edison, and W.B. Yeats, but is it still relevant in the 21st century? Mike Patterson’s argument is based in the wholesale democratization of esoterica, while outlining the profound impact theosophy has made in western society and culture. […]

Paul Davids, on How Forrest Ackerman Continues To Communicate After Death – Skeptiko
www.skeptiko.com

This interview with Paul Davids regarding communication from beyond the veil is compelling, and altogether goose bump inducing–in a good way. Clearly the Hollywood monster movie legend felt a bit cut off at the time of his passing, and is making up for lost time. It’s also possible that eventually, when the time is right, […]

This Prominent Scientist Says Life Is Meaningless… And He’s Serious – Skeptiko
www.skeptiko.com

Dr. Sean Carroll’s acceptance of Alex Tsakiris’s invitation is a huge score for Skeptiko, and everyone who enjoys this podcast. Both engage a lively debate over the meaning, or lack thereof, of the universe. Note a meaningless universe isn’t directed at you, per se, but the whole. You have meaning, but if that’s the case […]

Can We Believe Eyewitnesses… Did This 17Th Century Monk Levitate? – Skeptiko
www.skeptiko.com

We hope so. As Dr. Grosso points out in this interview, science and materialism tend to trump all things mystical nowadays, so it would be really great if in this case we could just make a real honest effort to try to understand this remarkable phenomenon. And don’t think the practice of Hypnosis and Memory […]

First Comprehensive Academic Survey Of Alien Contact Experience. Please Continue To Ignore – Skeptiko
www.skeptiko.com

Researcher Mary Rodwell provides the narration as we bang our heads against the wall, resolved that ufology will one day take its place as a legitimate discipline. Surely we must be at the point where it takes more effort to ignore the facts than to acknowledge them as real? The Betty Andreasson Abduction further illustrates […]

Materialistic Science Makes Us Feel Less Human – Skeptiko
www.skeptiko.com

Nobody preaches more sweetly to the choir than Alex Tsakiris. Today he invites Dr. Drew Dillinger to his pulpit for a special sermon. Science ignores the human of human experience, but art enriches the whole person rather than the mind. Sometimes complimenting science to its benefit. Cherry on top? It all comes back to Alex’s […]

Should Family Therapy Include Your Deceased Great-Great-Grandmother? – Skeptiko
www.skeptiko.com

Two psychotherapists take epigenetics, consciousness, and after-death communication to the next level. They have shattered the traditional family therapy model by incorporating the body of evidence suggesting consciousness extends beyond death and that those who are deceased may still be among us. Does that mean we have to worry about our unseen intergenerational relationship with […]
