6d ago01:58:01Tap to summarizeToday I had a guest on who decided to remain anonymous, though through his stories you can learn a lot about who he is and what he believes. He produces incredible videos on tiktok of his travels: raw, honest, digestible. His TikTok is https://www.tiktok.com/@gcvvgcvvgcvv?_r=1&_t=ZP-96nVYBwioxi if you want to check it out. We had a pretty excellent conversation, speaking about religion, global politics/influence, and so many personal stories. From Africa, China, and the Stans, to declining Europe and the very livable Latam - we covered a lot of the world. I am really happy to have had the conversation today, and I hope you all enjoy.

Transcribe →Chatting with a Reiki Master Teacher
Feb 1100:54:12Tap to summarizeCheck out our guest: www.rosemaryd.com Reiki was not something that I had heard much about before my conversation with Rosemary. The ability to sense and heal people using energy and intuition was always slightly outside of my scope of belief / understanding. Through my conversation with Rosemary, however, I became thoroughly impressed by her. Both her commanding knowledge of many different subjects areas across psychology, neuroscience, and history, as well as her ability to see people for who they truly are. She spoke to me about people that she had met who had died for 7 minutes and were revived and how their stories affected her, the different colored auras she can something see radiating off of people, and her ability to understand people at the level of the soul. She is a torch of light. I greatly enjoyed my conversation with her.

Transcribe →Philosophy for The Modern World w/ Dragan Wilms ∞ MAX DEPTH PODCAST
Jan 1301:25:13Tap to summarizeWhile I try to find what is practical and useful in philosophy, Dragan seems intent on destroying my entire conception of myself, how I perceive reality, and the systems we all operate in. In today's episode you will hear lines such as, "You are made a slave by language" & "We are castrating ourselves with each new instagram story post." Typical Philosophers! I am happy to have had this conversation with someone just as far down the rabbit hole as I am. Cheers to making it out the other side. THE MAX DEPTH PODCAST
