Episode: Humanity's Dark Night of the Soul with Kyle Cease

Release Date: May 8, 2026
Guests: Host Alex Ferrari and returning guest Kyle Cease

Episode Overview

In this deep and candid episode, Alex Ferrari sits down with spiritual teacher, author, and ex-comedian Kyle Cease to explore humanity's current transition—what Kyle calls "a collective dark night of the soul."
The conversation peels back layers of personal and social crisis, spiritual awakening, media transformation, and how the collapsing of old identities and control systems is essentially a birthing process for a more authentic, love-centered world—both on an individual and global scale.

---

Main Themes & Purpose

• Understanding why the world feels particularly chaotic right now
• The importance of facing inner traumas and the "false self"
• Why major global institutions are losing influence
• Moving from external validation to authentic living
• The mirrored relationship between inner healing and societal change
• The transformation within media, culture, and spiritual communities
• The power of radical acceptance, letting go, and embracing “not knowing”
• The need for true authenticity and moving out of addiction—subtle and overt
• Embracing the painful process as necessary for new growth and conscious evolution

---

Key Discussion Points

1. Humanity's Collective Transformation

Timeframe: [04:40–09:00]

• Kyle Cease: The chaos in the world is not just random; it’s the “false self” or egoic structures (personal and institutional) collapsing.
  • Trauma drives the creation of “false selves” that try to protect from pain, leading to identities rooted in old wounds.
  • As more light and awareness enter, these false patterns are illuminated:
    “The more light there is, the more of our darkness we end up looking at... you can only see the dust where there’s light.” (Kyle, [05:40])
  • This process feels like dying for those attached to their ego/patterns, but is actually a process of birth into the true self.

2. Institutions in Crisis & Awakening

Timeframe: [09:00–11:58]

• Alex: Observes that all major systems—from religion, media, healthcare, to Hollywood—are “cracking” because they no longer serve or resonate.
• Kyle: Since 2020, people are letting go of authority outside themselves. Attachments to family, relationships, government are dissolving so we can build a truer connection with ourselves and the now.
  • “These things have to fall away because the attachment... might have been bigger than your connection to you.” (Kyle, [10:19])

3. The Power of Present Awareness (The Now)

Timeframe: [11:34–14:26]

• Moving from distraction and external fixes (entertainment, substances) to spacious awareness.
• Kyle: “The true self is this space, is the universe, is the all that is... Before that, we had attachments to these things... and they're collapsing.” ([13:34])
• Healing the inside creates visible change on the outside—“the world is mirroring you.”

4. Empaths, People-Pleasing, and the Illusion of Changing Others

Timeframe: [17:07–19:49]

• Kyle: Empaths’ last addiction is trying to get others to change (“being a light in the darkness, not the light in the light”).
• True teachers and spiritual masters don’t try to enforce change—wisdom must be discovered personally.
• “If I really think more like an apple tree, an apple tree just makes apples. It’s not sitting there going, everyone needs to eat these...” (Kyle, [19:13])

5. Finding Your Unique Gift & Purpose

Timeframe: [21:36–24:47]

• We're conditioned to compare and imitate others. But each person has a unique “fruit” (gift) to give.
• The silence and being alone with yourself is the gateway to discovering this uniqueness.
• “The first thing... is to undo the need to give a gift out for a second and listen with no distractions.” (Kyle, [22:04])

6. Moving Beyond “I Am What I Do” to “I Am What I Am”

Timeframe: [27:56–32:38]

• Both Alex and Kyle reflect on their Hollywood roots and their past chasing external success.
• True transformation comes by letting go of identities tied to achievement.
  • “Shift from I am what I do to I want to know what I am. What I am comes with all the doing...” (Kyle, [32:02])

7. Foundations for Lasting Change

Timeframe: [32:50–37:53]

• Surface-level self-help is like redecorating a house with a cracked foundation.
• Real healing requires going “down to the studs,” breaking open the old cement (trauma) before pouring a new foundation.

8. Why Dark Nights & Collapses Are Good

Timeframe: [37:31–39:31]

• Kyle: “The only thing that can fall apart is your false house—the only thing that can fall apart is a limitation. The truth of what you are is never falling apart.” ([37:32])
• All loss or collapse is making room for a new, more authentic self/world.

Notable Quotes & Memorable Moments

• On the birth metaphor:
  • “You look at the birth of a child... all you’re seeing is screaming, yelling, blood everywhere. They’re like, this person is dying. If you didn’t understand there was a baby actually coming, something was trying to come.” (Alex, [39:03])
• On control and surrender:
  • “One of the things that’s trying to fall apart in this time is control. Because control is not the truth. This is a time of surrender.” (Kyle, [52:42])
  • “You leapt for your highest and then expected a result. You expected a certain outcome and you leapt so that you could get something. So you’re really turning God into your butler.” (Kyle, [53:18])
• Humor and healing:
  • “Bidet is love. Toilet paper is your fear.” (Alex & Kyle joke, [51:34])
• On healing through allowance:
  • “If you start to say to the pattern in your body, for people that are scared to be alone, lost, unloved, unwanted, hurt, whatever, tell them them. If you start to say the pattern, you're allowed to be a failure in my body, the failure energy suddenly Realizes it's loved. Then it comes to light and leaves, and then it's replaced by light.” (Kyle, [47:59])
• On Media and Authenticity:
  • “Real and true is the new spiritual... We’ve been sold so many different things over the years in lies... Now people are just like, I just want real.” (Alex, [85:37])
• On letting go and following the unknown:
  • “Let go of the need for approval and receive... You upgrade yourself and stop trying to get your parents—that might not be a thing.” (Kyle, [140:36])
• On the illusion of past and purpose:
  • “The idea that you exist already is your purpose... That you're going to decide it's when I'm a chef or it's when I write the book is a funny thing... True fulfillment of life is through your acceptance of now.” (Kyle, [147:01], [142:27])

Reflections on Media and Society

• Media & Hollywood: The infatuation with artificiality is dying; authenticity is in demand. Hollywood's attachment to nostalgia and control makes it ill-fitted for the rapid, authentic creative growth of new platforms like YouTube.
  • “Anything in the world that has a dark agenda of control or cares much more about results than what’s being created will not make it. It’s impossible.” (Kyle, [118:38])
• The Internet as an analogy of Oneness: Connecting the world mirrors our spiritual connection; information and authenticity are accessible to all.
• The fall of "pedestal culture": Both in media and in the spiritual/self-help world, there’s a move away from celebrity and pedestalizing others, towards a recognition of your own unique, essential worth.

---

Closing Wisdom & Calls to Action

• Allow yourself to grieve what's collapsing and recognize it's not authentically “you.”
• Choose listening and deep presence over chronic doing and chasing.
• If you’re feeling adrift, know the pain means you’re in a birth process—it’s making space for the real you.
• Let go of control and old narratives—trust in guidance from within, even when you don’t “know” what’s next.
• Find and follow your unique heart-calling, rather than imitating someone else’s path.
• Shift from thinking “what do I want” to “what does God/the universe want for me?”
• Authenticity and radical honesty—the new spiritual currency.

Final Notable Quotes

“True happiness is what you feel right now—not trying to change it to happy… If you can love what you feel right now, even if it’s total sad, total scared, total depression, now you’re not in resistance to what you feel, which will, as an energy, change it very quickly.”
— Kyle Cease ([88:15])

“If you put something up on a pedestal, you’re taking yourself off of it and you’re saying I’m less than... So Hollywood in some way will have to collapse. Especially because quite a bit of it is based on control.”
— Kyle Cease ([107:02])

“Success or whatever the question was …True fulfillment of life. Is through your acceptance of now.”
— Kyle Cease ([143:20])

[Kyle Ceiss]

I'm returning.

[Brian Scott]

You're a returning champion, sir.

[Kyle Ceiss]

Do you like that? I was more excited about returning than champion.

[Brian Scott]

Very much so. Welcome to the show, my friend.

[Kyle Ceiss]

I appreciate you, brother. Thanks for having me.

[Brian Scott]

Thanks for coming out to the studios, man. This is so exciting. We've never met in person, but we have a lot of common friends and thought this would be a great conversation to have in studio.

[Kyle Ceiss]

I'm honored to be here, truly. I think you're doing such a great job. I was just noticing as I was looking at the studio, people watching, there's room after room here, and you're doing so much incredible work. And it's weird because I always think of these things as this started with an idea for you, an invisible idea came through and then has, like, unfolded into. From a seed to a forest of magics.

[Brian Scott]

Oh, I appreciate that.

[Kyle Ceiss]

Be proud of that, man.

[Brian Scott]

I appreciate that very much. It's beautiful what you're doing. So let's dive in, man. The world is nuts right now.

[Kyle Ceiss]

Yes.

[Brian Scott]

Why, in your opinion? And when I say things like that, you know, we're in an election year as it's a recording and it's not only here, it's around the world that there's elections happening everywhere. There seems to be a lot of shifting going on. Arguably, this is not the worst it's ever been. There's times before that were much, much worse, you know, and so. So to put perspective for people, the world's coming to an end when in the 70s, you go back to the news, the world was coming to in the 80s, the world was coming to the end. The 90s, the world was coming to THE end in 2012. Literally, they thought the world was coming to end in 2000, they thought the world. So there's always been worse times. But right now, as we're feeling the now, it seems pretty chaotic, pretty nutty. What is your feeling of why the world is like that, what we're going through right now, spiritually?

[Kyle Ceiss]

One of the things that's happening right now is I believe our false self is collapsing. So to me, a false self shows up from when someone as a child experiences trauma, they don't want to feel that again, so they do something or create a character to prevent it. So let's say a kid is spanked because they got a D in math Right. So their ego goes, that scared me. That hurt. So I'm going to create a false self so they become a major achiever. All out of don't spank me again. Or for some kids, don't yell at me, don't abandon me, whatever. So you have this false self and then you call it your name. This I'm a make it happen person, or I am a worrier, I am a codependent, I am an avoidant. All these different things. And almost every I am is followed by a false you that we think is us. And imagine if those things are false, it's not really the God you, the one that's trying to come through. These patterns need to go. So in this time, it's almost like the light is so bright that it has to bring up all the lies. And so it seems like we are falling apart. But what's happening is you're birthing the actual you, the space that's here right now. And you're making room for the false self to be seen and come out. And what I believe more and more is the lens is opening up wider and wider and more lights coming in. And a way to see it that was really interesting is I was in bed not too long ago, my daughter came running in, jumped up and down on the bed. Some dust came up. Right now you could only see the dust where the light was coming through the window. Right? It was everywhere though. But you could only see it where it was coming through the window. So the more light there is, the more of our darkness we end up looking. So it's in the whole room, but you can only see it where there's light. So more and more what's happening is the good news is your light is expanding and it's making you look within. And if you stop distracting yourself from the light that's being forced on you by flipping through stuff that doesn't matter, getting drunk all the time, gossip, complaining, different things like that. And you allow this light to keep coming through, you're gonna start to alchemize the false self, the one who believes that you are your parents kid more than the now's kid. Because if you think you're your parents kid, they have egos. So you're also your parents ego's kid. You're this programming that they were. And so then you start to match their programming. If you have a dad that's yelling or angry, you're gonna become, I'm hidden as a protective mechanism, right? So the more the light's coming up, the more these things are starting to be seen as lies. If you think that's you, this is going to be a horrifying time because you feel like you're dying. So people that think they're the pattern, they get depressed and suicidal and different things like that. But the more you understand, oh, what's happening is I'm moving to the light version of me, and the false me is dying, right? You become the space and the unconditional love to hear the false you that's coming and alchemize it. So to me, this is a total birth of the actual truth of what we are. Because what we were before might have made sense in one realm, but it also didn't. In other words, what you were before was full of addictions or full of, you know, it was just normal to go to the bar, normal to take pills, normal to do all these things. And, yeah, we might have had our circumstances the way we wanted, but at the same time, we weren't connected to the true self. So that's why even if your circumstances are how you want, you might feel unhappy. So more and more, what's happening right now is we're moving into our true self. And I believe our true self is miraculous. I believe our true self can make miracles. Our true self is free and joyful, and our ego often wants to go back to a time when things were better. And in some realms, things could be better. But some of the reasons that things were better was because your lens was just smaller and you couldn't see all the darkness that was still in the room. So as the lens expands more and more, you start to go, oh, look at this part of me, I don't like. This trauma, that's not me. This story, that's not me. This achiever, that's not me. Even the positive things, the me that could make it happen so that I don't get yelled at again, right? These need to die, and we don't want to move based on covering up trauma. You know, if you're, like, bullied as a kid, and then I'll show them and you start a business out of that, literally. The trauma of the bullying is now running your business. So if you heal it, the business will have to fall, because it's not built on guidance, it's not built on expansion, it's not built on love.

[Brian Scott]

So is that why a lot of these institutions, like, you know, from religion to the economy to health care to food production to medicine, all of it, Hollywood media seems to have cracks all over it. I mean, you, you and I both come from Hollywood and different avenues of Hollywood, but we, we were in there for a long time and we saw a lot of things. But you start seeing the cracks now that people aren't buying what they're selling.

[Kyle Ceiss]

Yes.

[Brian Scott]

In all of these aspects from, you know, the Vatican, let's say, or Orthodox, you know, Christianity, Christianity or Catholic. I'm using them examples. As a recovering Catholic, I can say these things. But. But in all of these industries, all of these institutions, all these systems. Yeah. They're not being of service to humanity anymore. And they sense. And people, because of all the information they're getting, because of shows like this, because of the Internet, things like that, they're not buying what they're selling anymore. Is that what. Is that what. The frequencies are just changing?

[Kyle Ceiss]

Yeah. Because of the lights coming up in you and showing all the lies that are in you, all of your limitations, all of your. It's also showing up everywhere. Right. So one of the things that's happened, I believe, really much More exponentially since 2020 has been the release of our attachment to authority to anything other than our true selves in the now. So we've had authority go to the government, we've had authority go to media authority, go to a relationship like that's the answer. Authority. Even go to your family unit that you are, your connection to your family. A lot of people experience in the last five years a disconnect from people they thought they were really close. Releasing of people, arguments over specific methods during 20, 20 different things like that. One of the things I've noticed is that these things have to fall away because the attachment to these things might have been bigger than your connection to you. So if the attachment to something you think is more your God than the now falls apart, guess what happens? The darkness that was under it can come to light. So let's say you thought a specific relationship was the answer to your life. Right. This is the answer. And then it collapses or a was your life and then they left or passed away or something that might have been a remedy to the feeling of loneliness or darkness or not enoughness. But then when it goes, guess what? That comes to light. And you can see it if you don't refill it with another external thing. Right.

[Brian Scott]

But it's also not very pleasant.

[Kyle Ceiss]

Oh no, it doesn't feel good at all. And it causes you to have to become more than now, to become a space to hear it. So more and more it isn't pleasant. And that's what's good about it is like the only way to actually heal it is to become more of a space of the now, to merge with the now, to listen deeper, to stop distracting with too much external entertainment, too much, you know, drugs or alcohol or anything like that, and become present. So the more you start to be the now, you notice that you start to connect to this field. That's the actual you.

[Brian Scott]

And now back to the show.

[Kyle Ceiss]

In this field, I believe very much a lot of people say the higher me, it's healing the lower me. But the lower me keeps dying. So I can't be the lower me. In other words, I could feel unworthy one day and then heal that and then feel worthy. So the story of I'm unworthy can't be me. Every limitation that shows up in your body right now can't be you. Right? Because it can heal and you'll still be. So more and more I start to realize the true self is this space, is the universe, is the all that is. That's the True self. Right. And before that, we had attachments to these things like entertainment and the media, all these different things, and they're collapsing. And then when they're collapsing, their lies show up. What the media truly is, what the entertainment industry really is run by. These are starting to. Isn't it weird I said that? You know what I'm talking about. 20 years ago, that would have sounded like crazy conspiracy theories, but now it's normal.

[Brian Scott]

But it would have sounded like crazy conspiracy theories. If, you know, when I was coming up, I was taken around at the highest levels in Hollywood, I'm sure, as well as you have. And you would just hear things and you wouldn't. I didn't say I didn't go to a diddy party. Thank God.

[Kyle Ceiss]

Yes, I didn't either.

[Brian Scott]

Thank God.

[Kyle Ceiss]

That's how every person that's ever been in the industry now has to start anything. Just so you guys know, I haven't been to a Diddy party.

[Brian Scott]

I haven't been to a diddy party ever. There's no images with me in P. Diddy ever, you know, so.

[Kyle Ceiss]

And once any of that is seen, it's healed. It's really surreal. In other words, once it's seen, I mean, obviously there's gonna be a bunch of chaos as that gets seen. And the ego doesn't like to be seen. In fact, the ego's number one goal is to stay unseen. It likes to keep things vague. Right? Yeah.

[Brian Scott]

Great.

[Kyle Ceiss]

Yeah. A person might go, oh, I don't like to be lonely. But the ego wants to keep it vague and go, don't look at why. And then, because it might go, if you look at why, you'll realize I was scared to be lonely because as a kid, one time I was alone and someone hurt me. When I was finally left, my parents left, I was alone with someone and someone hurt me. So the ego doesn't want you to look at that because you'd see it and alchemize it.

[Brian Scott]

Right.

[Kyle Ceiss]

So the ego's biggest trick is staying mysterious. And it needs you to stay addicted to external things. So you don't research it. Because if you start meditating, you'll see every lie inside of your body and heal it. But that's what's happening too. On the external, I believe the more you heal what's inside, the more what's outside literally mirrors you. I believe Bashar's content that the world is mirroring you, that you're moving to parallel earths at the same time. I find as I heal me, the external Starts to come to light so

[Brian Scott]

much faster, and you start to see things, clear things that you used to enjoy. You don't. My favorite quote is my favorite little story of Yogananda and one of his followers who was, you know, a womanizer, all this kind of stuff. And he goes, guru, I can't do this. I don't know if I can give up all the stuff that I really enjoy to do these teachings. And he goes, do you smoke? He goes, yes, you may continue. He goes, do you drink? He goes, yes, you may continue. Are you promiscuous with women? He goes, yes, you may continue. He goes, but, Guru, how can I do all these teachings and yet do all these things? He goes, you can continue to do all those things, but I cannot guarantee you will want to continue after you really take these teachings in. And that's such a profound, profound way to look at things. Because if you try to change somebody, stop completely, it won't work. But you, like, you show them here, at a certain point that stuff starts to dissolve because those are crutches or things that you just were using as fillers for the truth, right? Yeah.

[Kyle Ceiss]

Well, it's really interesting what you just said about when you want to change somebody. I think empath's last addiction is trying to get other people to shift, Right? And that to me is an analogy I came up with recently about a lot of people like to be a light in the darkness. Meaning, like they're used to their mom felt shut off, so they want to awaken them or they marry a narcissist. So they want to kind of get them to go up a lot, and they won't change necessarily. The second we start to realize the shift is for me only, and that the byproduct is they will shift. You're totally free. And so we want to move from being a light in the darkness to a light in the light. Because empaths, number one thing is outside of me. And what other people feel is so much more important than what I feel, right? And so they often match that. A people pleaser can only attract a taker, right? So if you keep going up and up and you notice my desire is for this person to shift, but that's control. And you release that, you move from being a light in the darkness to a light in the light. And you can also receive people that care about your heart too.

[Brian Scott]

Isn't it interesting that if you study the masters, and I'll use yogis, for example, or a guru or some sort, I've never In all the footage of them or teachings and books that we've read. I've never heard of any of them going, I need to change Kyle. I need to help Kyle.

[Kyle Ceiss]

Yes.

[Brian Scott]

I need to. I need to have you. I need to give you enlightenment. And never say anything like that. They are who they are in the now.

[Kyle Ceiss]

Yes.

[Brian Scott]

They give you teachings and they let you figure it out. That is the dust. That is truly the purpose of a good guru, a good teacher, a good leader, is to. Not to try to change you, but to provide the fuel for you to change yourself and to come to these enlightenments yourself. Because just like when you're teaching a child, don't put your hand in the fire. Don't put your hand in the fire. You're getting burned. You could say it a thousand times and they might kind of understand on an intellectual level, but the second they put that hand in that fire, that's the only time they'll ever have to do it. They need to discover it for themselves. Would you agree?

[Kyle Ceiss]

I would agree. And you'll start to realize the second you just stop trying to shift other people. Like, if I really think more like an apple tree, an apple tree just makes apples. It's not sitting there going, everyone needs to eat these or stuff like, am I more like a pear tree? We have this gift here.

[Brian Scott]

That other apple tree's so much nicer than my apples, right?

[Kyle Ceiss]

Yeah. You're sitting here comparing and did I get enough apple views and all this stuff. You'd be. And by the way, it's a really funny analogy, because if you weren't giving your apple. If an apple tree wasn't giving its apples the gift that it actually came with, that's beyond the hustling and force.

[Brian Scott]

I love this.

[Kyle Ceiss]

Right. If it didn't give its apples, it would get sick. It would have to get sick because it's not doing what it was here to do. It would have to get addicted. It would have to watch Apple tree Netflix. It would have to be stuck.

[Brian Scott]

Just watch cable, apple cable news.

[Kyle Ceiss]

Bonding with other apple trees that aren't making anything and complaining about other trees that are. Right.

[Brian Scott]

Like that mango tree. How dare they.

[Kyle Ceiss]

Right. And the more you let go of what the ego wants and you start to go up in frequency, you start to realize you just have your gift. And the more. I'm not trying to get people to eat the apples that the apple tree has. I'm not trying to force this. I'm not addicted to. How many did I sell? Am I the number one Apple tree. Right. The more I create space for it to just come through. But I notice when I let go of trying to shift people, there's actually pain here to heal. In other words, there's an egoic reason and control to try to shift people, even to change the world. If you're saying I'm on this planet to change the world, even that's egoic because God's just trying to shift you. And you'll see the world change through you. But it's the ego saying, I gotta lift everything up. That when you stop doing that, you start to hear that ego is doing that still out of a pain. I gotta shift everybody because deep down I'm not loved. I gotta shift everybody because then I'm worth something. Which implies a sin right there. The belief that you're not worthy as it is, and so all of those things healed will suddenly make you move to a much higher frequency.

[Brian Scott]

Well, I mean, that lie that we, you know, that's a Catholic lie. The whole concept of the sin of, like you're born with original sin and all this, it's insane.

[Kyle Ceiss]

Right?

[Brian Scott]

It's absolutely insane. How can you do that? But I love your idea of that. The analogy of the apple tree is so beautiful because it really shines a light on how ridiculous we are with ourselves.

[Kyle Ceiss]

Yes.

[Brian Scott]

You know, because, you know, when, when a lot of time, and I think I could talk for a lot of people listening. They don't know what tree they are yet. They don't know what they're here to give. They don't know what fruit they're supposed to be sharing with people. And they're trying to figure it out. Until then they're comparing with other trees and they're like, is that the tree? But once you do figure out what that, that, that fruit that you're supposed to give is, that's your mission in life. That is your joy. Right.

[Kyle Ceiss]

And the crazy thing is it's unique to you. There's a level that we still, we need to go up and watch self help and read the self help books and spiritual books. And there's a level where people are like, I'm the next Eckhart Tolle, or I'm the next this speaker or whatever. And these concepts are great, but they're here to get you to find the unique one that's trying to come through for you. And these, the videos and the contents and all those things are incredible. But the highest content there is is the silence. Because the silence will come in and tell you what your next steps are and it will take out the lies and it will take out the force and it will take out the not enoughness because none of those are true. And so the more you listen so the first thing I find to figuring out what your gift is is to undo the need to give a gift out for a second and listen and allow yourself to listen with no distractions. And stop grabbing the phone, stop grabbing the TV and listen and you'll start to hear a bunch of pain and callings at the same time.

And now back to the show.

[Kyle Ceiss]

And the pain is the death of the false you that's trying to give their gift out of I'm not enough or I'm not worthy. And a higher you goes I got. In fact, I am you and I love you and there's nothing you can do to get out of how loved you are. And I'm, I'm. And it sounds like a corny cliche thing, but it's, it's really real. And the more I do this thing, the more I find even the one for years that Wanted to shift people is a wounded boy even. Even the one that wanted people to. You know, it's really deep down. Then my dad will see I'm legit. If I get 10 million people to shift on the planet, then my mom will go, good job. And that has had to be healed for me. In the last few years there's been this space opening of just like this space has you 24 7. And it's wanting to alchemize these things that are not enough. And I'm unloved and unwanted because you're trying to be wanted through other people's egos. Right. Through a person seeing you. Then you're. These aren't how this works. Right. So it's creating higher space for those to die and a light to just come through.

[Brian Scott]

You know what I find interesting about you, Kyle, is that you and I both were on parallel paths. Both came out of the Hollywood system. You were a stand up comic and actor. I was behind the scenes as a director and a writer and producer and stuff. And both of us went our paths and we had success. Yes, to a certain extent in those worlds.

[Kyle Ceiss]

Yeah.

[Brian Scott]

And we both love that world. You love being a stand up. I mean, at least it seemed like you really loved the jokes and you love the attention of the attention. I loved. I loved what I did. But there was a point where both of us said this isn't enough anymore.

[Kyle Ceiss]

Yes.

[Brian Scott]

And in the grand scheme of things, you know, you, you know, you couldn't have come out as what the work that you're doing now in this, in the spiritual space with at 20. No, absolutely not. You needed to go through all the stuff you went through. But then the skill set that you picked up is exactly perfectly built to do what you're doing right now. So for you, the humor that you bring into your teachings, how you help people, you break people down through humor and get like that apple. The apple tree analogy is brilliant. That's a stand up comic idea. That's a definite. I've been around you weirdos long enough that I know how you guys think.

[Kyle Ceiss]

Yes.

[Brian Scott]

And that is such a. Just a looking. That's a stand up comics view on something. But throwing a spiritual twist on us. It's so beautiful. And with me, I had all this technical experience and ability to do what I'm doing. That's how I'm able to do what we do with the show and do it so quickly and at scale that we're doing. But we didn't understand what we were doing. We were Completely in many ways, lost in the fog of war, if you will, the fog of our journeys. But only looking back through age and through experience, go. Oh, I needed to go through those 20 years of, you know, working in clubs and I needed to go 20 years of working on thousands of projects, you know, that I didn't want to work on.

[Kyle Ceiss]

Yeah.

[Brian Scott]

To get to where I'm at. Would you agree?

[Kyle Ceiss]

Yeah. I mean, it's interesting because. So I was a stand up comic starting at 12, and I really was. My dad's uncle was the prop man for the comedian Gallagher, and my grandma was a famous puppeteer. She was on the Carol Burnett show and did amazing different things and then quit also and ended up speaking on Ascension instead. And, you know, one of the things I realized was as a child, standup comedy was my dream career. And I was only watching these comedy shows and that's all I cared. Kids were watching cartoons and I'd be watching Evening at the improv at like 8 years old and Gallagher specials and different things. And I realized something really profound. You know, my dad, who is really ill right now, when I was a kid, I didn't feel a connection to my dad. I felt like he was shut off and he worked in the house and there were a few times that were violent and not safe. And when stand up comedy came on, my dad and I, my dad changed. And when sitcoms were on, my dad changed. And at one point, being a comic was my highest, but I believe it was to avoid trauma even too. And so I became a comic in order to not get hurt. Because if I'm doing standup or watching stand up, I'm not physically hurt, I'm heard. And all of a sudden there's a presence and a connection to my dad. So without even knowing it, I became really ambitious and wanted to be a stand up comedian. And I did it for 20 years and then started finding the beginning of higher through, starting with Tony Robbins and then Michael Beckwith and different amazing people that I learned from finding this higher frequency. The last has been a shift from I am what I do to I am what I am. This is a really huge deal. It sounds like nothing, but you know, most of the time, here's the unconscious question. With almost every dilemma that people have, what do I do? Even with meditation, people go, how do I meditate? And so they kick in this identity as a doer. And so I realized in the last five years something that has changed every aspect of my life. Instead of I am what I do, like I'm identified with my image as a speaker, my image as a comedian. How many people or followers I get? Could I let go of my attachment to that and shift to. I'm on this planet for one reason. To know what I truly am. And this is so profound, because if I find myself in meditation or even throughout any part of the day asking, what do I do? I notice that's a pattern that's trying to not get hurt. And I'd rather heal the thing that's scared to get hurt than do as a blockage to that. And so the more I listen to the now, the more I become that now. So at first it was standup, and then it was pretty profound to realize you can move to a consciousness that's even bigger than, at one point, your dream career, right? Like this now was so expansive that being a comedian at one point ran its course. And it had even bigger than what my dharma was from being a child. It turns out my dharma is so much bigger than the shift of careers or now I'm this career. I must be something more. I must be a constant expansion, right? And the old lie on our planet is, you are what you do. If you think of, like, the 30s and the 40s, like, a lot of people that have been married for, like, 70 years, they don't. They could do it out of I am what I do. I am this marriage I fought in World War II. I'm these things. But if you ask them about their feelings, many of them can't. They don't want to go there, right? So there's a lot of trauma that's stored in those old units of what I do. So the more I go, I am what I am. I'll give up anything. A thing I said once in a meditation on an ayahuasca is merge me with my soul, no matter what the cost. And that was the beginning of a releasing of people in my life that I didn't align with. That was the beginning of releasing of attachment to my career, my image. And that was the beginning of COVID was like, right after that, I thought, did I do this, Kyle?

[Brian Scott]

You did it.

[Kyle Ceiss]

As I open up and go, merge me with my soul. Show me the world. All of a sudden, we're all in our houses wearing masks. I was like, did I just. Just asked to go deeper. And it just shifted everything. But shifting from I am what I do to I want to know what I am. What I am comes with all the doing. It'll give you a next step. It'll give you the guidance, it'll give you a releasing, it'll give you the healing. But we'd rather heal first before we do, you know, than be a wounded thing sitting on top of a bed of trauma, trying to fix stuff on the external that's actually an addiction looking like help.

[Brian Scott]

I love this idea that you just said the bed of the bed of trauma. Because we all have. None of us get out of this without being unscathed. You come in here, you're gonna have. I mean, just coming in. It's traumatic.

[Kyle Ceiss]

Yeah. Generally speaking on the planet or the studio?

[Brian Scott]

Both, sir. No, just coming into the planet, just the birthing process is traumatic. You're coming into. Through trauma. So so many of us try to fix a. Fix a house with a foundation that is completely unstable. Yes. And that's why we continue to feel. That's why people who will continue to watch shows like this, who read books and read spirituality books and self help books and they just dissene and just keep going and going and going. Yeah, but they're just trying. They're just basically moving the chairs around in a house or maybe even knocking a wall down or two. In a house that's completely on a foundation that's cracked and unstable. So it doesn't actually do anything. It doesn't feel like anything until you take everything down to the studs, report the cement. But you can't report the cement until you break open the other one. Get that other stuff that's rotted or bad or cracked out, lay it in, and then you can start building on that. Would you agree?

[Kyle Ceiss]

There's so much false energy in all of our bodies and that's what's trying to come to light. The belief any. Any limitation at all is a lie. Any. I am a worrier. I am not enough. I am. And then you create a doing to fix this lie. Right. So I'm not enough, but when I make a million dollars, I am. I'm not enough. But when someone sees me or when my mom says good job. Right.

All loans and amounts subject to lender approval.

[Brian Scott]

And now back to the show.

[Kyle Ceiss]

That's why one of the things I'd offer people watching this podcast and every one that you do is to couple the content that you hear with an hour of listening afterwards. Because what you can do when you just hear content is get excited in the mind about what your future is going to be as another addiction to not look at what's in here. And the second we each start going, okay, I'm watching this content and it's amazing, but it also is the same as going to a gym and watching people work out and then explaining, you can work out too. And then you go, look how good I am at watching other people talk about working out. And then you go back into all your addictions and problems. But if people watching this podcast after it listen for an hour, like really listen to how this applies to you, and not just put us on pedestals and say to themselves, I want to know what the content that just came through. How does it apply to me? And allow themselves to listen. You will start to see, oh, the me that was was trying to get somewhere else. Maybe was out of I'm not enough or I'm scared or people won't like me. These are traumas. And then you'll heal those. And the second they go away, they're replaced by light and you move up in frequency and that higher frequency, you can do so much more than the one that hustles 14 hours a day and goes, I have to do all out of this fix, right? So getting those things and the foundation that you were talking about built is the key to the whole thing. Because most of us, almost everything we're doing right now is a house that is not poured in cement that could fall over at any minute.

[Brian Scott]

And it does quite often.

[Kyle Ceiss]

And it needs. And that's why when things are falling apart, people think that's bad. And I would say get excited. The only thing that can fall apart is your false house. The only thing that can fall apart is a false you. The only thing that can fall apart is a limitation. The truth of what you are is never falling apart. So anything that can fall off of you wasn't you in the first place. So get excited because it's making room for the true you to birth. And what you actually are is miraculous. And it literally needed to remove that thing. And our problem is we keep thinking the thing it removed is still us. So we're longing for this one thing that left. But it's like, no, let life remove what it needs to from you. It might need to put you in a ton of debt because maybe you thought you were your money, and it needs to take your money away to show you you're enough without it. It might need to get you to get that you're whole as is. So it might break up a relationship to get you to be present for it. So if anything's falling apart, bring love to it. Bring appreciation for what it used to be. But know it's making space for what's trying to emerge. Michael Beckwith taught me that. That changed my life. What's trying to emerge with everything happening, even in the world. Oh, my God, all this darkness is coming up. There's World War Three on the way. All these different things. There could be a civil war. What's trying to emerge? Stay in the higher frequency. A false us is falling apart.

[Brian Scott]

And when you say what's trying to emerge, the first thing that comes into mind is that thing we just spoke about, the birthing process. Yes.

[Kyle Ceiss]

Everything is a birthing process.

[Brian Scott]

If you look at the birth of a child, if you have no idea you're an alien and you are seeing this, all you're seeing is screaming, yelling, blood everywhere. They're like, this person is dying. If you didn't understand that there was a baby actually coming, something was trying to come.

[Kyle Ceiss]

Yeah. What if you didn't know there was a baby coming? You just say, like, my stomach's growing.

[Brian Scott]

It's just insane. And it would look absolutely insane and traumatic. Why would anyone go through this?

[Kyle Ceiss]

Yes.

[Brian Scott]

And that's exactly. What not only we're going through internally, but also the world is kind of going through this very messy, painful process. But what's going to come out the other end.

[Kyle Ceiss]

Yes.

[Brian Scott]

Is the beauty what is trying to come out. Yes. And when, when a lot of this stuff, you know, you and I are both of similar vintage. So, you know, we've been around for, for a minute. When I was growing up, I didn't see these kind of things happening. I mean, yeah, we had our own crazies in the 80s. You know, we thought we were going to die from the Russians were going to drop their bombs and stuff like that and all that. The 90s had its own flavor, the 22 thousands had their own flavor. But I never saw this kind of, this kind of disruption with, you know, racists would usually be very quiet in the corner, maybe a racist joke here or there, you'd hear somebody in a party, but you never would see that as the front facing way that they addressed the world. And being very proud of that. I never saw that before. You know, like on their social media platform they're just literally saying, this is how I am, this is my feeling, this is my true truth. Being racist against everybody. You never ever heard anything like that growing up. Would you agree?

[Kyle Ceiss]

Yeah. I think the way I see it is imagine in the 80s, because yeah, we are kind of similar. Imagine that the lens that we were looking through was really small and the highest we knew is we are what we do. So if you are what you do, the most thriving people are entrepreneurs and people that are measured based on success and financial wealth and everything like that. Now those things can happen, but there might be a ton of trauma under that. There's no light asking you to look at. You're happy enough with your circumstances, which actually means also we were very selfish because there was suffering all over still in the 80s, but there was no reason to look at that or anyone else. It was all just like the lens is this. So imagine that in the 80s your house was a one story house and it was all clean, Right. If you took a camera through your house, your internal house, it's one story. Once 2012 happened, imagine that might be the beginning of seeing maybe there's more to this house. And then 2020 is like you pull the carpet back and there's a door going to a lower level of your house. So there's a second story, but it's full of rats and dead bodies and all this different stuff. Right? So the good news is you actually have a house that's twice as big. The bad news is there's a bunch in here we have to clear out. So if the light. So in the 80s, we just had this, like, I rock because I'm just the first floor of this building, and I. And you know, and now we're on an elevator. And in the elevator, it's looking down floors, and it goes, oh, that's my future. But then the next day, it's a new floor. And that's why people are having a hard time starting projects and stopping them. So many people are like, this is the answer to my life. And then the next day, your consciousness changes and you're in a higher frequency. And that's what I believe a timeline is. Have you heard people talk about, oh,

[Brian Scott]

yeah, I was gonna bring up timelines in a minute.

[Kyle Ceiss]

So imagine a timeline is like a past and future. Like, I'm the first floor of a building. That's the answer to my life. So in the past, we looked in terms of past and future, and we were happy. If we had future, we could measure. I can see that I'm locked into this job. I can see I have enough money to live forever. I can see that I have a relationship. I'm married. So your happiness is still based on a false addiction to the future, right? That you always know what the future is going to be. And the only thing freaking us out right now is we can't see what our future is. But we're not supposed to. The true us is supposed to live in the now. So imagine God took you from an unconscious attachment to the future, and now it turns out your future is a byproduct of your now and that we're moving up in elevators. So we're switching timelines. That's why if someone makes a prediction for six months from now, I'm like, we don't know that that's true because you looked down the lens of a timeline. But in six months from now, we're going to go up in the elevator and we're going to have a different future passing a different future passing a different future. So it moves in this exponential way where there's no past and future anymore, and we're just kind of on an elevator. That's why our job is to just sit here and let the elevator release your attachment to floors, your attachment to circumstances, your attachment to past and future, and it'll create a future that's magical. But the future never will come because it's only now. So as we go up in the elevator it's going to be more and more fine because the future won't be tainted with these lies in our body of unworthiness and not enough so you won't believe what can be done through you when you release the need to be the doer and be attached to that floor. Did that make sense?

[Brian Scott]

It does make sense. I've always said that the insanity of humanity in general is that we're all. Like Shakespeare said, this is a stage, and we are all merely players on it. Our insanity is that we believe that we are not Heath Ledger, but we're actually the joker. That we go on, we come out, we do the play. But Heath was able to take the makeup off, the suit off, and go home and be Heath. Yeah, we still believe that we're the joker and the actor. Heath, is actually our higher self.

[Kyle Ceiss]

Right.

[Brian Scott]

You know, we use a video game analogy, Mario or Zelda or something, or Link or something like that in the same manner. But that insanity of attaching ourselves to the character that we're playing is very much the doer. I remember, like, when I was growing up, if my filmmaking career was not going the way I wanted it to, I was miserable because I associated my entire existence to that job. I did. You know, now if I didn't have a podcast, I didn't have this. You know, I know who I am at the end of the day, you know, I want to be my. I want to be a father, I want to be a husband, so on and so forth. But it is still, you know, these are different parts that I play, but I know who I am. I'm not attached wholeheartedly. If I don't get the numbers I want, I'm gonna cry. You know, I'll be like, hey, what can we do? But overall, my whole world is not wrapped around this.

[Kyle Ceiss]

If you. In the old days, when you were doing the movies, fill in this blank. Because this is something I ask people when people are going, I have to do this. I have to make this business happen. I have to make this. I always ask this question, fill in this blank. If this doesn't happen. Like, if you go broke, if that person leaves you, if everyone doesn't like you, I am what? Right? So if I ask you that with the movies, if you don't. In the old days, if I couldn't get the movie to go, or if I couldn't get the actor, or everything fell apart, I am what I am. Not enough. I am loved.

[Brian Scott]

Failure.

[Kyle Ceiss]

I'm a failure back then, absolutely. Starting in 2020, I started getting really excited about the idea of becoming a light for the deepest fear that's inside.

[Brian Scott]

And now back to the show.

[Kyle Ceiss]

So I I did it by having people say like that. They'd say, well, my biggest fear is becoming a failure. I'd have them say to the pattern, you're allowed to be a failure in my body. This is a profound change because the idea of I'm scared to be a failure is the belief that I'm not loved if I fail. But what if even if you fail, you're totally loved? See the pattern? Never heard that. Because if you had a parent that said do not fail or they did that to themselves and you picked up their pattern, then you suddenly have this thing that says I can't fail because I won't be enough or I'll not be loved. And if you start to say to the pattern in your body, for people that are scared to be alone, lost, unloved, unwanted, hurt, whatever, tell them them. If you start to say the pattern, you're allowed to be a failure in my body, the failure energy suddenly Realizes it's loved. Then it comes to light and leaves, and then it's replaced by light. So these patterns that I can't be a failure, these things are all coming to light right now. And it can come to light really quickly. If you say to the pattern, you're allowed to be whatever the deepest fear is. You're allowed to be abandoned. You're allowed to have everyone hate you. You're allowed to disappoint others. This is where love comes in and alchemizes that energy.

[Brian Scott]

Where do you see. There seems to be a lot of fear. Tremendous amount of fear going on right now.

[Kyle Ceiss]

Isn't that exciting that we see it?

[Brian Scott]

No, we do see it, because that

[Kyle Ceiss]

fear was there in the 80s, but no one saw it. Do you get what I'm saying?

[Brian Scott]

Oh, yeah.

[Kyle Ceiss]

Like, the lens is bigger. So if people are feeling fear right now, the reason is because their light is bigger, their lens is bigger. So the fear isn't anything other than coming up, up right now. And we can't numb it anymore. You can't just go to an addiction. Right. You have to actually hear the fear. My favorite band hears the fears. Welcome to your.

[Brian Scott]

I don't have the rights for that, sir.

[Kyle Ceiss]

That's the short. I have to sing it that shortly.

[Brian Scott]

I don't want to get banned.

[Kyle Ceiss]

So imagine if we started thinking every time, man, there's so much fear here, like, in my body or in the world. And I'm going, how awesome is that? It's seen right now. You get that. You're the lens that's seeing that. So people see, like, people go, people don't understand this government. You hear a lot of people say, I wish other people would wake up to it. But everyone's saying that now. So what I find is this is happening, but we're all seeing it. So instead of looking at the bad thing that's happening, get excited about the fact that we're seeing it, because seeing it is what alchemizes.

[Brian Scott]

But how do you. So I was talking to some friends this weekend, and they were like, asking me what the psychics and the channelers and the mystics have come on the show. What do they see for the future? And I would tell them, like, look, my opinion from everyone I've talked to is this, this, this, and this is going to happen. And we've kind of mentioned a little bit it's going to be a rough ride because we're going through this birthing process.

[Kyle Ceiss]

Yeah.

[Brian Scott]

And. But it's going to be completely fine. We're all going to make it in the end, but it's going to be a bumpy ride. And their first initial reaction was, how do we head against it if the economy's gonna crash? What do we do? Like, you know, I go buy gold toilet paper and bullets. Like, that's like, what do you want me to tell you? You know, and canned goods. Like, what do you. But it came from a place of fear.

[Kyle Ceiss]

Right.

[Brian Scott]

Automatically.

[Kyle Ceiss]

And those solutions can be helpful and also are out of fear.

[Brian Scott]

Right. Well, toilet paper is very helpful. Yeah. Just get a bidet.

[Kyle Ceiss]

I was just gonna say get a bidet. Bidet is love. Toilet paper is fear. Bidet is love.

[Brian Scott]

But hashtag, bidet is love. Toilet paper.

[Kyle Ceiss]

I know that's going to be your title.

[Brian Scott]

That's going to be. Bidet is love. Toilet paper is your fear. Absolutely. I had a bidet during the pandemic. Life was good.

[Kyle Ceiss]

Yeah, life was fine.

[Brian Scott]

They're very cheap nowadays.

[Kyle Ceiss]

It's true.

[Brian Scott]

It's very true. But. But the. So and during the pandemic, there was so much fear. We were fed.

[Kyle Ceiss]

Yeah.

[Brian Scott]

My God, there was. You remember on, like I was watching, I think, multiple news outlets, there was like a death count.

[Kyle Ceiss]

Yeah. Every day. Yeah.

[Brian Scott]

And then if you actually looked at the numbers, there were more people dying of, like, cancer.

[Sponsor Voice - SpinQuest]

Right.

[Brian Scott]

There were more people dying of pneumonia.

[Kyle Ceiss]

There were also 800. I don't know the exact number, but something like 800,000 kids missing. You know, like there's so many. All kinds of other statistics you can

[Brian Scott]

put up, but they were put. It was just this. And I think the pandemic really showed

[Kyle Ceiss]

they all played their cards too.

[Brian Scott]

Everyone's, from the media to the news to religion to health care to. All of them really showed a lot. It really brought up a lot of stuff.

[Kyle Ceiss]

One of the things that's trying to fall apart in this time is control. Because control is not the truth. This is a time of surrender. And there are so many ways that even that we pretend that we're bringing light, but it's still control. Like, sometimes people say, I'm going to follow my. And then they'll say, but it didn't work. I've had people say, kyle, I followed my highest calling, but it didn't work. And I go, that's not surrender at all. That's control. Because you leapt for your highest and then expected a result. You expected a certain outcome and you leapt so that you could get something. So you're really turning God into your butler. You're telling God what you want, but

[Brian Scott]

The Secret told us we could do that.

[Kyle Ceiss]

And that was a Great Service in 2006.

[Brian Scott]

Correct.

[Kyle Ceiss]

Do you get what I'm saying? Like, the consciousness back then was, I'm in a victim state. Something like the Secret. And motivational seminars are great to move you up in vibration, to start to realize you can change your thinking. And a lot of people are making a mistake of trying to use those methods now while so much more darkness is trying to be seen. So if you're only thinking positive, while there's all this darkness of unloved energy, you're just using that as an addiction and denialism as an escape. And it won't have the same consciousness as it would have in 2006 when those things were expansive. Now that thinking is contracting.

[Brian Scott]

Correct?

[Kyle Ceiss]

Right. And for you to think so you can manifest something still implies the thing you're trying to manifest is bigger than you and is the answer to your life. And one of the mistakes we make is we think anything that we want is bigger than us. Like money, for instance. So many people think money is bigger than you, but you made every dollar you've ever had, so get excited about you. What you are is worth so much more than money. There's only one of you. There's a lot of money out there, and they're printing it like crazy, so it's worth nothing. That's another podcast, and you're thinking it's bigger than you, so you're shrinking your vibration to that. You are this thing that's just now IOUs being passed around when you were the source of every dollar you made. So instead of going, this is my God. Get excited about you and stop chasing money. Chase. And the byproduct will be you will have a foundation that gets that you are abundance, and money has to chase that. But don't do it so you can get that, because that still implies that money's bigger than. Understand that everything that you want is not bigger than you. You got to get to a place where you understand that what you are is the profound connection.

[Brian Scott]

But the thing is so hard, Kyle, is like when we were talking about this before we started the show is when I started this show, I was at a place where I did it for a little while, then I stopped doing it. And then Connie, my spirit guide, kicked me in the butt and said, you got to get going now. And then I took a leap. That same leap you were talking about somebody else. That my truth, whatever that is, I took that leap. But the difference was, and this is the first Time. One of the first times in my life that I did this, I had no attachment to Outcome. I just said, I'm just going to grow, grind, and I'm just gonna do my work and I'm gonna just. It's in somebody else's hands. I'm just gonna do the work.

[Kyle Ceiss]

Yes.

[Brian Scott]

And that was the significant difference where so many. And, you know, there's people on YouTube, on podcasters, they're always associating, I need this many subscribers, I need this many likes. I need this many followers.

[Kyle Ceiss]

Yes.

[Brian Scott]

And a lot of people ask, how did you do what you're doing with the show? I'm like, I have no attachment, truly, to Outcome. I would love. Look, we all, all want as many people to watch us and many people to enjoy the work that we do. But I, you know, and I will do everything I can on my end to help that process along.

[Kyle Ceiss]

Yes.

[Brian Scott]

But not control it. Because I understood when this show took off two and a half years ago. Yeah. I was not in control because I hadn't. I had never changed.

[Kyle Ceiss]

Yeah.

[Brian Scott]

The show from the day before the first episode took off to the day after the next episode took off, I had done nothing different. Right. You know, it's not like, oh, I did this new technique and. I know. And then every month that it kept going up, I was like, I'm not running this train. Yes. I mean, I might be putting the coal in the engine, pushing it through, but where this train's going is not in my control.

[Kyle Ceiss]

Yeah.

[Brian Scott]

And that was a very big, enlightening moment to me. It was the first time in my life go, oh, the universe is. There is a universe. There is something else behind this. There's somebody, somebody else, something else guiding this. Yes, I have to do my part. I have to show up. Yes, I have to do the work. But the outcome is it's still not within my world, but I've just kind of let it go. Would you agree?

[Kyle Ceiss]

I agree. And I think that what I think the factor was, from what you're saying, is that you are evolving when you like. To me, that's the number one factor. So there's a way that I see things that has really helped me, especially in the last 10 years.

[Brian Scott]

And now back to the show as

[Kyle Ceiss]

I believe that everything in our lives we can feel will either expand us and move us closer to what we truly are or contract us and keep a pattern going. So every second we have this feeling, sometimes a voice will come through and it'll show up like this. It'll be like, what if I left this company? What if I asked the person out? What if I wrote the. What if I let go of this? What if I move to Italy? It shows up with these open ended callings, right? And you can't see what the results will be because you've never done it, right? So you have to move based on a feeling of expansion and it'll feel like an opening. That feeling is a preview. It's saying this is a higher you calling you and saying move towards this. And then whenever that shows up, the ego part of you needs to kick in and come up with why you shouldn't, right? Because you're about to do something that's going to actually move you towards you and probably heal aspects of you. And what you're gonna heal is trying to stay alive. So this portal shows up and goes, I know the next step and it makes no sense. And if you ask other people about it, right? If you ask other people about it, they're not feeling the calling you're feeling. So they might try to stop you.

[Brian Scott]

You mean like a spiritual comedian, right?

[Kyle Ceiss]

Yes. Yes. What if I. Dude, when I left Stand up and started doing this, the whole comedy community thought I was crazy. You know, same. Every time I leave something, I get attacked, and there's all this stuff, right? And so this thing comes out and it'll go. This will happen. And then this reason that's really stupid comes up with why you shouldn't, and it's trying to keep you in the small self. So here's example. You could have this feeling like, what if we left this company right now? And then the second you goes, well, if you do, we can't go to the Cheesecake Factory party next Thursday. Right? Right. And it's like, yeah. And then this first voice can't tell you this, but it's like, dude, if you'd follow me, me, you'll own all the cheesecake factories in a month. I got all kinds of stuff for you. And the second voice is like, yeah, but they have those Thai lettuce wraps.

[Brian Scott]

The breadsticks.

[Kyle Ceiss]

The breadsticks, right. So do you notice this voice can measurably see what you'll stay with? It can see what you keep.

[Brian Scott]

It's concrete, right?

[Kyle Ceiss]

So you see evidence. And a lot of people are scared to move forward because you don't get any evidence. You actually just feel a feeling, an intuition. And so either move based on your soul or you move based on your fear. And when you follow the fear, the opportunity goes away, and when you follow your soul, the fear goes away. And so for me, I've had so many moments where I followed the opening and the soul calling, and then the byproduct is the fear goes away, and it moves me into that. And the more the fear goes away, it's replaced by more magic, more next steps, more God, more worthiness, more love. And then the podcasts get better, or the content gets better or the answers get better. Now, if you keep following the fear and staying in the old frequency, you're now in the old story. And the old story is a road that goes nowhere every time. And it's going to try to come up with egoic solutions to fix itself. And what we'd rather do is we follow the calling. And so when you created this podcast, it was kind of a vision that no one else knew what you were talking about, right?

[Brian Scott]

I didn't know what I was talking about. It was an idea given to me by my spiritual teacher who saw it. Right.

[Kyle Ceiss]

She.

[Brian Scott]

She's connected to the other Side. So she completely saw it very clearly. It's as insane as a comedian and going into the spiritual space as a filmmaker. A filmmaker who has a filmmaking podcast. A number one filmmaking podcast.

[Kyle Ceiss]

Yes.

[Brian Scott]

To jeopardize that to open up a spiritual podcast, which I have zero followers, zero credibility, zero, et cetera, anything. It's insane, sir.

[Kyle Ceiss]

There was a moment maybe three years ago or so that I was. One of the things I do with people is I hold space for them to heal the old traumas. Very often my demographic is similar to my mom because a lot of what I do is trying to convince my mom that I'm legit through my audience. So quite a bit of my audience are 50, 60 year old women sometimes, Right. Very recently. I mean, by recently, I mean a year or two or three ago. I don't remember what it was, but I was with a group of women helping them feel their feelings. Right. And they were healing this stuff. And I'm saying this because if you showed the 24 year old me, who was doing stand up and did movies, 10 things I hate about you, all these different things. If you asked the 24 year old, where do you want to be when you're 43 or whatever I was, he'd be like, I want to be doing stadiums. As a comic, this is a great example of timelines, right? Yes. The 24 year old saw a future where I was the next Bill Burr or something awesome like that. And even though I love those guys and got to work with those guys, something for me that was very different. Started birthing. Right. So it's funny because the me back then, if you showed him what it was going to be, is hilarious compared to what was actually trying to birth. And it's almost like fast tracking you to moving from this world of what you want to what God wants for you. That's the big shift right there. Because when you start following expansive callings, you start to hear what it wants for you. And so in the old secret times, in the vision board times, we're putting up what we want. I want this mansion. I want the Lamborghini or whatever.

[Brian Scott]

The bicycle.

[Kyle Ceiss]

The bicycle. Everything I had on a Trapper keeper in the 80s.

[Brian Scott]

Trapper keeper.

[Kyle Ceiss]

I realize there's certain things nobody ever. There's sentences nobody's ever said. And one is, we're sold out of Wilford Brimley. Trapper Keepers.

[Brian Scott]

Who, by the way, Wilford Brimley.

[Kyle Ceiss]

Same age and cocoon as Tom Cruise's.

[Brian Scott]

No, no. As Paul Rudd is now.

[Kyle Ceiss]

Wow. I know. That's pretty cool to be, like, born an old man.

[Brian Scott]

He was. No, he was born with that mustache.

[Kyle Ceiss]

He's, like, born in, like, start me with Quaker Oats commercials and we'll see. Came out in overalls with a hay thing.

[Brian Scott]

Oh, my God, he was great.

[Kyle Ceiss]

Yeah, but. But I forget what I was saying, but. Oh, it's so funny how this podcast literally is like, shift from what you want to what God wants two seconds later. Wilford Brimley and Trapper Keepers. Right? But that's the huge shift, is when you start following these callings, you realize the ego was wanting those things. And what we're here now to do and why we're all falling apart is because the ego's collapsing. So when you start listening to callings and go, okay, I'll birth Next level soul as a podcast, you don't know what it'll look like. You're literally shifting from what the ego wants to what God wants. And when you follow what God wants, it has to gently kill the ego because the ego's not in charge anymore. And so the shift in my life has been moving from vision, boarding myself, motivation, seeing the outcome. We'll have a million people on following this and fill theaters to literally following invisible callings and going, okay, what do you want? And it starts just being. It moves me from a world of motivation and push to letting go. Everything in the last five years has been about letting go. Any motivation doesn't work now because it's actually control. Having an agenda to I want to even heal the world or shift millions of people is control. And the more I let go, the more I just find I want to be healed. And I want to even let the one go that has to shift the planet. And I think the byproduct will be a bigger impact, but that's not up to me. So when we start to shift from what do I want? That's old self help. And people are confused on that because people are like, I'm trying to figure out what I want. That might. If you can't find it, that might be because you're at a frequency that's too high for the contracting energy that knows the answer to what you want, because usually that's out of trauma. I want to know what I want so I'm not wasting my life. I want to know what I want so I'm not unwrap.

[Brian Scott]

No, no, no, no.

[Kyle Ceiss]

What does God want right now? Even people watching this could be just to let go. Could be to quit something. So I'll Say goodbye.

[Brian Scott]

So I'll play devil's advocate here. I agree with everything you say, but I'm play devil's advocate here. If someone listening is going to go, well, what do you mean by let go, Kyle? What do you mean by, like, let things fly in? Like, I have to pay my bills.

[Kyle Ceiss]

Yeah.

[Brian Scott]

You know, I want to do this or do that. You know, you and I both ran away for the circus.

[Kyle Ceiss]

Yeah.

[Brian Scott]

Basically, yes. We're oddballs to begin with, but a lot of people who's like, you know, I want to be a musician. I want to make a living as a musician. I want to make a living as a writer. Want to start that little cupcake company that I always wanted to start it, or all these kind of things. But there, there are blocks to all of those things. How can you make a living as a musician? There's so many broke artists out there. Or a writer, for God's sake. God, for a screenwriter.

[Kyle Ceiss]

Yeah.

[Brian Scott]

It's insane. What would you suggest to people who are trying to kind of digest what you're saying? Yes, but the reality of their world and their, their. And listen, we all got to pay bills.

[Kyle Ceiss]

Yes.

[Brian Scott]

You know, we have families to support all that stuff. So how can we go through this process without jeopardizing everything?

[Kyle Ceiss]

Well, I would say one of the things you just said is this point that I see a lot when I talk about letting go. People say that we got to pay bills. What about all these different things? One of the things I want to offer is for people that I've noticed. I've had a lot of one on ones. I do tons of one on ones with people. They'll say, Kyle, I'm working 50, 60 hours a week and I can't pay the bills. And I want to point out, right. That's not what working egoic force isn't working. So when people hear these points, they go, kyle, I want to pay the bills, though. And I go, do you notice that the egoic way of force and hustle isn't working anymore because it's not based on the truth? So as we do this, more and more we start to realize, wait, the egoic way I'm trying to do it also isn't working? So I don't get why it gets so much credit, but actually following your soul doesn't. I have found following my soul brings a lot of abundance because it connects me to the field of I am abundant abundance. And that creates a space for it to come to you.

[Brian Scott]

And now back to the show.

[Kyle Ceiss]

So if we take in this idea that force isn't working because I'm all about abundance. But you can't do it without a true foundation. If you think abundance is the answer to your life externally, but deep down you have all these traumas and stories based on your childhood that say money's the root of all evil, or I'm not enough or you're never going to make enough money, or any sentence that you heard an angry parent say, you're not going to have any foundation to keep the money to receive it. And if you're still in your patterns, you're going to spend a ton of your money on addictions. A lot of our money goes to addictions. I got to get the most expensive car so I look good to people. I got to buy alcohol. I got to buy all these expensive, expensive dinners. I got to overeat. And then we spend way more money than we have to because we're not connected to the highest form of happiness, which is ourself. We find it's in addictions and all these old things that are all used to help you deflect from God.

[Brian Scott]

Kyle, all I have to tell you is this is very un American. Everything you're saying is very un American. Very. We're making a new American, very anti capitalist.

[Kyle Ceiss]

I'm just saying. Oh no, this. I'm totally in the capitalist world. Like. I know, I know, but imagine the frequency of also the capitalism being come. Coming through a higher guided. You versus right.

[Brian Scott]

I agree with you 100% because I always sat there thinking deep thoughts with Jack Handy.

[Kyle Ceiss]

I love deep thoughts too. My favorite one is. My favorite deep thought was if you saw two guys named Hambone and Flippy, which one would you think like dolphins the most? I'd say Flippy, wouldn't you? You'd be wrong though. It's Hambone bone.

[Brian Scott]

Amazing.

[Kyle Ceiss]

I love when something goes from a hypothetical to factual. You're wrong. It's Hambone.

[Brian Scott]

Anyone list Jack Handy thoughts? Deep thoughts with Jack Handy was SNL skit back in the day. The 80s. I think it was 80s or 90s. Yeah, I think it was late 80s that it came out. It was. I just remember as like, they're so funny with Jack.

[Kyle Ceiss]

It's so weird because it's kind of a spoof of what I became. Right. Like I post literally literal shorts now with Rivers and me talking.

[Brian Scott]

You're this generation's Jack Handy.

[Kyle Ceiss]

But I'm actually the joke versus making a joke about it. You are the punch guy. I'm what Jack Candy was preemptively, psychically making fun of 30 years ago.

[Brian Scott]

And I wanted to ask you because this transition you've gone through, it wasn't easy. It wasn't easy transition. And you know, when you decided to let go and to find this happy place that you're in right now. And when I say happy place, I know it's not all rainbows and cupcakes. It's been a journey and it's been a rocky one to get all this stuff up and all this kind of stuff. But one of those big things that people are terrified about is losing people around them. Losing family, losing friends, losing colleagues, being ridiculed, being ousted, which is one of the core, core fears of a human being being thrown out of the tribe. If you're thrown out of the tribe, you die. It is really hardwired into our amygdala, if you will, back in the. The reptilian brain. Hence why more people are afraid of public speaking than they are of death.

[Kyle Ceiss]

Yeah.

[Brian Scott]

Because of that, isn't that weird of that fear. That fear is that powerful.

[Kyle Ceiss]

And it also shows how much of us are the ego. Because the ego cares much more about what people think of about them than death. Than death. But that is death if they don't like me, right? Isn't that weird in itself?

[Brian Scott]

You have to go through something else to get to the same place.

[Kyle Ceiss]

It also shows how not true it is. Correct? It makes it make no sense. Like if you're less scared of physical death than looking bad in front of a group of people, that must be an old pattern in itself. So just take in that it must not be the truth. It still needs to be heard and alchemized. It doesn't make any actual sense. So if you become present and see a pattern that says, I'm scared about what people think about me, or I'm scared about losing someone, what you're actually saying is those things complete me. Which really means you think you're incomplete. And that pattern of incomplete energy just needs to be seen. The more you're scared of losing people, the more you're actually aiming for it. Whatever you're scared of has to come to light. This is a really big revelation I've had because it's not true. All fear is not true. It still needs to be heard and seen. So it's true in that respect that it's there and it's legitimate to be seen, but it's not true. If a person has a bunch of fear in them, it has to come out. It comes out one of two ways. This is a horrifying revelation. You can identify the fear internally and you can hear it until you finally get to the core wound that caused it. And it can come out or you can repress it and life will make the thing you're scared of happen so that you can finally let go of it that way. Like if you're really scared of everyone not liking it and then you face that everyone doesn't like you, finally you'll get used to it and you'll have to let go of it. Right?

[Brian Scott]

Well, you. But you were trained that way as a stand up. Like you literally would go up and you'd bomb. I'm sure you bombed at one point or another.

[Kyle Ceiss]

I was lucky because I started at 12. So by the time I was working at 18, well, I had the empathy laugh at 12, 13, 14, 15. So you honed. By the time I was 18, I was. I was better.

[Brian Scott]

But I assume at one point or another there's people in your audience who did not like you.

[Kyle Ceiss]

Oh, yeah.

[Brian Scott]

And did not like what you were doing. Yeah, I saw one of your, one of your videos of how you destroyed hecklers back in the day.

[Kyle Ceiss]

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[Brian Scott]

Which is one of my favorite things to do to see, to watch is destroy heckler. Yes. But you already, you know, as comedians and I want to dive into this a little bit. I've never spoken about this, but I've had such a unique experience of being around and working with stand ups. Stand ups are very, very unique breed of entertainer. Very unique breed of entertainer they have. And please correct me if I'm wrong, there is a lot of.

[Kyle Ceiss]

Of stuff.

[Brian Scott]

Oh, yeah, there's a lot of stuff underneath there. But the one thing I've noticed is they have a tremendous armor around them that has been built up a really callous skin to protect them from what's being thrown at them on a nightly basis. There's not a lot of open job, you know, like really all of them have this kind of guard up and they also have dealing with a lot of things and there's un underneath. Can you kind of use the comedian, the stand up as an example of what we're all kind of going through, but an extreme version, because they are, you know, I always call them and we have a lot of common friends and stuff. And I love all my stand up friends. You know, a lot of them were sad clowns.

[Kyle Ceiss]

Yes.

[Brian Scott]

Very sad clowns.

[Kyle Ceiss]

Yes.

[Brian Scott]

And the funniest people who sold out arenas that I know.

[Kyle Ceiss]

Yeah.

[Brian Scott]

When you got them alone, they were depressed.

[Kyle Ceiss]

Yeah.

[Brian Scott]

They were just. Oh, like. But then they turn it on, you know, and you look at, you know, you look at Robin, I was just gonna say, you look at Robin, what he went through. You look at Richard, Eddie, any of these classic, you know, amazing. Lenny Bruce, all these kind of classic stand ups they are on stage, just, just piercing laughter. Yeah. Piercing laughter. And I almost sound. I've heard them, a lot of them say it was their job to make you hurt because you laughed. So it was like, almost like, I need to attack you with my comedy. Until you are like peeing yourself on the floor in pain because you're laughing so hard. That's when they really got off. Do you agree with anything I'm saying?

[Kyle Ceiss]

Yeah, I think that it's a weird thing because we know that alcohol and drugs are an addiction.

[Brian Scott]

There's that too.

[Kyle Ceiss]

But one of the things we don't know is there's also very subtle addictions that there aren't commercials for, you know. Yeah, there's no Parents who worry have children who worry. There's no, you know, this is your brain on procrastination. There's no commercials for.

[Brian Scott]

That's all right.

[Kyle Ceiss]

This is your brain on pro.

[Brian Scott]

We need to make that commercial. We need to shoot that.

[Kyle Ceiss]

Yeah. And so there's a lot of addictions we have that we're not aware that we have. And one thing is comedic deflection. Right. If you look at someone, and I was friends with many comics, I was friends with a comedian that was a legendary, very obese comedian. And if you wanted to help him with his actual health, you know, he'd just have a joke right there and you couldn't, you know, there'd be this quick thing. It was like, it's like unconsciously a weapon that you get love for you. Literally, I'm going to just say this joke and get love. And then we also don't have to look within.

[Brian Scott]

Correct.

[Kyle Ceiss]

We don't have to look what's here. And Robin Williams, I felt if you watched his stand up or watched him riff on a late night show, it was amazing. But you can. I can't get in there. You know, when he's like, oh, look at here. You know, and it's just like, we don't want to actually hear what's under there. And I think that we got to see it a couple times with Goodwill Hunting and Poets Society. I mean, I think the greatest thing Robin Williams ever did was Good Will Hunting.

[Brian Scott]

Touch talk on the bench.

[Kyle Ceiss]

You know, I want to cry thinking of it when he says, you know, you think you know love, but do you know what it's like to look at a woman and feel truly vulnerable? I could feel Robin finally be like, I'm gonna let you see what's in here. And I will tell you, one of the things I'm uncovering in me in the last five years is so much pain. But I'm so grateful that even though I got the reward of stand up comedy, and I'm so glad I didn't, I'm probably, if I stayed there, would still find this stuff and bring it to light. So I'm not saying it would was a weapon to not, but I'm just glad that I have the awareness to go, hey, I want to know what's inside me more than I need to make someone laugh to avoid what's inside me.

[Brian Scott]

We'll be right back after a word from our sponsor.

[Brian Scott]

And now back to to the show.

[Kyle Ceiss]

And I start to realize when you make jokes, you're making fun of certain things. And it's so good to laugh. It's not great anymore to make fun of things because it's like an accepted form of judgment in certain ways. And inside of me is a boy that's hurting. And I have been. One of the things that's happened to me in the last year with my fiance is what I do is I meditate for a lot of the day. I listen to highest callings. I let go of what doesn't align with me anymore. And then all this pain, pain comes and gets exposed and it's coming to light and I have to listen to it. I cannot deflect. I cannot go overeat or go do something. What's that?

[Brian Scott]

Can't tell a joke?

[Kyle Ceiss]

I can't tell it. No, because you can feel that actually cutting it off. But I feel something is here to heal right now. It's ready to birth. And what I literally do, almost any every morning is I sit with my fiance. She puts her hand on my heart, I'll play piano music and I'll just be bawling. It happened this morning.

[Brian Scott]

Wow.

[Kyle Ceiss]

And I start to realize, like, right now, it's just shedding a false self. That's a wounded boy that wants to be loved because he believes he's not. He believes he's not enough because he made God in his mind what his dad was. A lot of us make God our parents. You know what I mean by that? When they're like, God will be mad at me if I don't. No, no, no, that's your dad.

[Brian Scott]

That's the Catholic.

[Kyle Ceiss]

Or that's the Catholic one. Right, Right. That's a God that's based on control. I don't believe God's based on control. I believe God is infinite forgiveness, ultimately love now. And if you want to truly change a habit, you have to bring forgiveness. Like, you can't shame your way into changing a habit. When you shame your way, you know you're putting yourself in a prison, and then the only way out of it is to do the behavior again. So guilt and shame will never change it. It keeps you at the same frequency of the problem. But if you realize you're already healed and start to accept it and you're loved, you will start to purge these lies. And you will never be the person that you were in the past that you didn't like, because you move, like Bashar would say, into a new timeline of being someone who isn't someone who doesn't do that anymore. They never did. And so we're here to move up in frequency to a healing place that loves you. And I'm so thankful because I got to do stand up and get laughs. And then as the light went, I went in and was like, there's a lot of pain here, and I don't want to live the rest of my life holding it and being funny on the external and being addicted to external approval and completely, you know, watch as this pain comes up louder and louder and numb it with addiction after addiction. You know, this has to come out, and it creates a space of intense vulnerability. Like to be a speaker and tell you, there's a boy that hurts every day. Oh, yeah, is. Is a scary thing. But I am really about us not being on pedestals. Because if you're on this planet, you're healing. I don't care who the speaker is.

[Brian Scott]

But the thing is that when you said that, I don't find that vulnerable, don't find that weak at all. I find that to be so empowering.

[Kyle Ceiss]

Yes.

[Brian Scott]

And so like you, you have such a power within yourself.

[Kyle Ceiss]

Yes.

[Brian Scott]

When you speak, it comes through that authenticity is Something that a fake speaker or a speaker who has a mask, it won't connect. And I'm finding that more and more people are really looking for that authenticity. They're really looking for that real thing. We've been sold so many different things over the years in lies about our religion, lies about our God, lies about our money, lies about our health, our food, everything that now people are just like, I just want real. Yes, I just want real.

[Kyle Ceiss]

Real and true is the new spiritual. Absolutely true is the spiritual truth, actual truth.

[Brian Scott]

And you know, I've had people who come to the, to the show in the studio and they meet me, they're like, well, you're just like the person on the show. I'm like, yeah, it'd be weird if

[Kyle Ceiss]

you were like a Chinese woman.

[Brian Scott]

I wasn't a former license, but no, but like, you know, imagine if I. All of a sudden, I know you've met people like this, that when the camera turns on, like, hey, how you doing?

[Kyle Ceiss]

And they're like pacing backstage, in the

[Brian Scott]

backstage, throwing up, or they're being mean to people and then they could just turn it on and turn it off. I've worked with actors like that that could do that magically, but it's, it's not what people connect to anymore. I think that's one of the reasons why media is having so much trouble right now. Hollywood is. There's not a connection anymore.

[Kyle Ceiss]

Well, and that also brings up the people, like if someone watching this, that's always about, you know, big fake energy to other people, like big smile and all this stuff when deep down there's pain, like we, we feel like a stand up. Yeah, right. And so we feel more comfortable with, you know, as we do this inner work with other people who are in that same vulnerability because that person's changing, right?

[Brian Scott]

Absolutely.

[Kyle Ceiss]

As you do this work, the number one thing I find I want in a friend is someone who's also in the work, right? Because as I go up in my frequency, anyone that's not is just kind of hiding their light and then moving into an addictive energy and it becomes dense, it becomes a heavier energy. And so they become more of a protection mechanism of like, how do I look and what do I do? And so as I go up, I just kind of go. The only frequency I want around me is someone else who's also working on themselves, right? So if people are moving up, a lot of times they're trying to convince someone else to go up. If they're not doing it, you have to honor that because you're going to start to stick to it and you're going to shrink yourself versus X.

[Brian Scott]

So is this kind of like what we're talking about is a dark night of the soul? Yes, essentially. Right.

[Kyle Ceiss]

I'm, I'm in love with dark nights of the soul. I love them. The more this stuff comes to light, the more excited I am. You know, I always loved like the Beach Boys, like sadder stuff. Brian Wilson, I think is someone who's so great at making you cry and feel. I love movies that just end totally depressing. I think that's so much more realistic.

[Brian Scott]

Marley and Me.

[Kyle Ceiss]

Yeah, Marley and me. Saw two weeks ago. That's so weird you said that. I have a seven year old, so.

[Brian Scott]

But I hate it. Hated it because of that. Sorry. Spoiler alert.

[Kyle Ceiss]

Yeah, yeah, but, but life has sadness in it, of course.

[Brian Scott]

The tragedy.

[Kyle Ceiss]

We come at tear ducts for a reason. And this idea that we're all supposed to only be happy, I find instead of trying to be happy, like if someone feels off, they're often going, what do I do? How do I get help? Happy again, dude, True happiness is what you feel right now, not trying to change it to happy. Do you get what I'm saying? If you can love what you feel right now, even if it's total sad, total stuck, total scared, total depression, now you're not in resistance to what you feel, which will, as an energy, change it very quickly. So instead of thinking, I want to feel good, think I want to feel what I feel right now. That is true fulfillment and accepting of every feeling. But what we have is a pattern thanks to old self help that says, I feel off, how do I get happy? And it's like, what if your happiness is hearing the off pattern? What if your happiness is being present for an energy that feels totally unloved and sitting with it, that will move into a space of tears when it's heard and it will leave and it will be replaced by this light energy that's here. And you will be more and more whole by being okay with everything you feel and not trying to get things happy. You're not going to believe how powerful you are from that frequency.

[Brian Scott]

One thing I've noticed that, and you've mentioned it a couple times, and what we've said today is that the old new age ideas, the new spirituality, the old spirituality had its place at the time. I've even run up against a couple of walls within the spiritual space because of the way we approach spirituality. Yeah, this kind of, you know, Having deep conversations with psychic mediums about, you know, when, when you heard them, when you heard the voices, did you think you were going nuts? These kind of like, no one would have ever in a million years ask those kind of questions, right? But it was all about like, are you seeing now? Kind of thing. And I'm running up. I've seen, I've run up against the old, the old guard in many ways. And the new way, I guess you needed someone from outside, like you and me outside of the space to kind of look at it and go, no, no, no, no. This is, there's another way. There's a newer way. And I love what you're saying, that before you needed to, I need to go get something. Or the old self help way of looking at things, or the old spirituality where we're opening up more painful but more powerful ways of evolving ascending. Correct.

[Kyle Ceiss]

Well, I also think the more, the more pain you're feeling, that's good news because it's coming out right. In other words, your lens is getting so big that you might start seeing all kinds of lies at the same time. Right. And so know that this is a thing I know and have said, but I also know other speakers have said too. There's nothing the universe will give you that's bigger than you can handle. So as you move up in frequency, you're gonna start to go, oh my God, it's so overwhelming. But no, there's nothing that it's bringing up that's bigger than what you are. There's actually no past story you have that's bigger than what you are. No matter how much trauma, no matter how big your story is, it's not bigger than what you are in the now. Which is why I offer people to stop fighting for your past story. Stop getting. It needs to be heard through the space of what you are. But one thing people say is, I'd love to live in the now, but you don't get what I've been through. And I'm like, if you lived in the now, you'd heal what you've been been through.

[Brian Scott]

And now back to the show.

[Kyle Ceiss]

If you start to get what you are, it's bigger. It doesn't matter what huge thing happened to you or tons of things happened to you or how bad your your life is. I hear you. I'm not denying that there's empathy towards that. And join me in the power of this moment and see how powerful you are. Because what you are can not only alchemize everything in your life, but the more I do this, I'm starting to go, it's alchemizing the whole world. You are the light of the new world that's trying to birth through you. So you are this now. And you have a world that exists through you too. Like, we have a, like in our head, there's a Donald Trump and a Joe Biden and a Kamala Harris and our parents in our head. And then there's those people outside. And so we're sitting here trying to control the ones in our head. The partner in your head, the spouse in your head. The more you bring light, those things leave. And the more those things leave, you start to move to a wholeness. That light starts to see the whole world and bring alchemizing to that. And I find that the byproduct is when you heal something internally, it absolutely heals on the external. I have a story that happened to me that was so weird and it's a weird story. When I was in a Relationship a long time ago that was wonderful, but didn't align with my soul. Like, she was such a sweetheart, but just, like, my soul felt it. Like, I had to let go. And I had a thing where I didn't want to be abandoned. And we often don't want other people to feel what we're scared to feel. That's why people are like, I don't want people to feel pain. That's because you're scared of feeling your own pain. If you feel through your pain, you'll be a space for other people to heal their pain versus trying to stop them from feeling it, right? So one day I went and did ayahuasca, and I took ayahuasca. And I was scared to abandon this girl, basically, and move forward. So what happened was we broke up, but we still hung out all the time. And I could feel callings that wanted to move into a new relationship at the time. But I was scared to hurt her feelings, right? So I do ayahuasca, and I start to get nauseous. And while I do, her head, like, shows up on a fish that's flapping in my stomach. And I start to see her, and I end up throwing her up. I'm not kidding. I see her flapping in the bucket, so I throw her up. And then I realized I released my attachment. I felt free of her. Like, I felt truly free of her. And it's okay if I move forward. And the next day, she called me and said she fell in love. Love with someone I want you to take in. I released my tie to her, and then it freed her without me even saying anything to her.

[Brian Scott]

Interesting.

[Kyle Ceiss]

So whatever you want to change on the outside, the more you want it to change, the more it can't, because your resistance to what it is is keeping it there. But the more you move into a place of light, it removes your resistance from it. And then it's almost like you stop saying, my ego change changes this, but God does. So everything you want to change on the external can only change. I find when you let go of needing it to change. Does that make sense?

[Brian Scott]

It does.

[Kyle Ceiss]

The more you move up in light, the more it actually creates a release of the things on the external, and it starts to make miracles happen. Because the ego is trying to change things because it wants the things to be what it needs to be so the ego can be happy. But when you finally celebrate what is and move up and free frequency, your resistance to what's happening in the outside world starts to fall apart. And then the thing can change.

[Brian Scott]

Interesting. You know, it's as you were saying that the thought came to my head that, you know, as I've been. As I've been kind of evolving through this show and just throughout my life I used to really be attached to, you know, presents and gifts and Christmas and all that stuff where now I almost dread it because I'm like, I don't want any. Like I'm a horrible gift acceptor. I love giving gifts, but I can't.

[Kyle Ceiss]

I knew that about you. That's why I didn't bring anything.

[Brian Scott]

Thank you, sir. We're just really. I'm a bad gift acceptor. And it's not even that. It's like, it's not because I don't appreciate that the token or the energy behind it. And that's something that's different. If it's something meaningful or personal, I get that, that's fine. But just to like it's of Christmas. Gotta, gotta get five car. You know, I gotta get five presents to doing this. Like my kids. I was like, what do you want? Yeah, I don't want anything. So I've started to let go of a lot of those things where before I was really holding on. Yeah. And then the other thing I've noticed as I've continued to evolve through my own, my own journey is the kind of media that I'm in, taking, you know, things that I used to like watching. I can, I can't. Like if it's super violent now I'm like, ah, you know, I can't. I really can't. It's not, it's not connecting with me the way it used to.

[Kyle Ceiss]

Yeah.

[Brian Scott]

In my brain. Bloodsport was awesome. I remember Bloodsport being an amazing film. John Claude was an amazing actor. I saw it when I was a high school, all that stuff and I, you know, and I would go back and I'm like, if I start watching this again, I'm going to ruin that memory of it. Or any of these 80s, wonderful 80s films that were at that time perfect for the world and for us. Those movies don't play today. Imagine Predator.

[Kyle Ceiss]

Yeah.

[Brian Scott]

Or like there are movies like that, but they don't have the kind of.

[Kyle Ceiss]

Well, it's a good example of what's trying to. Why Hollywood's falling apart. It doesn't our like, it's almost like what you're saying is we wouldn't just use that with you. I think that's happening with a ton of people. Our vibration is too hard, high, it's too much Of a contrast to feel the, you know, the energy of picking up and watching just violence for no reason. It's a weird thing to watch a movie at all. It's like I'm gonna watch a bunch of people simulate a story that never happened where everything goes to crap and then back to normal again. It's a weird two hours.

[Brian Scott]

It is. But can be transformational.

[Kyle Ceiss]

Yeah.

[Brian Scott]

In your life. Like you watch Shawshank.

[Kyle Ceiss]

Yeah.

[Brian Scott]

And that movie. I mean, you watch the. The Matrix.

[Kyle Ceiss]

Yes.

[Brian Scott]

You know, you watched, you know, Green Mile. Like you watch these kind of films and they. They feed the soul.

[Kyle Ceiss]

Yeah.

[Brian Scott]

In many way now, mind you. And I use the Matrix in their. Matrix is a violent film, but it's a simulated violence and it's inside of a Matrix construct. So you kind of separated from it in a way. Yeah. I was looking at. There's violence, there's action, there's fighting. But I can watch the Matrix without a problem because I understand. Understand the. The message that it's coming through. That movie has so many layers. Funny. But it's a really fascinating thing. Like I was. I just watched all three of them again recently. I know I'm like. I see different layers in it.

[Kyle Ceiss]

Yeah.

[Brian Scott]

But it's not like watching an old 80s, you know, canon films, you know, ninja film.

[Kyle Ceiss]

Yeah.

[Brian Scott]

Back in the day. Would you. Do you understand what I'm saying?

[Kyle Ceiss]

Totally. At one point I even found. Even though Matrix at one point was a ladder rung, that helped me move forward, for me it's actually smaller now. In other words, like I find for myself, like it's starting to be. It's almost starting to be. Just listen. It's like course in miracles or silence. It almost feels like God. That was so necessary to move us up and was such an incredible movie. It's one of my favorite movies, Matrix. And I notice if I watch it now, I'll still feel contracting interesting because it's a great story of this journey. You're the One, but the One exists within all of you.

[Brian Scott]

That's why probably I tend to attached so much to it because of that. It's that it's a perfect example of not only the idea of the simulation and of the Maya and that whole idea, but basically the evolution of the One to find out who you truly are.

[Kyle Ceiss]

The three Matrixes are also a great representation of the timeline of a bad relationship. Because the first episode, it's really good.

[Brian Scott]

It's excellent.

[Kyle Ceiss]

The second one, you don't get what's going on. And the third one is just Fighting.

[Brian Scott]

It does pretty much.

[Kyle Ceiss]

It's pretty.

[Brian Scott]

Pretty much. Right. That's actually really good. But you need the second one.

[Kyle Ceiss]

Yeah, you need the second one to connect. I don't know what the hell's going on, because that's what I felt with Matrix. So I'm like, what's happening? And then the third one's just fighting.

[Brian Scott]

I mean, there's cool. There's just the two white albino guys.

[Kyle Ceiss]

What are they?

[Brian Scott]

The good action sequence? No, the one. The one is the perfect. That's a perfect film for what it is. It's like watching Back to the Future. It's like.

[Kyle Ceiss]

It's my favorite.

[Brian Scott]

It's a perfect. The first. The first Back to the Future is a perfect film, right. For me, the second was like, what's happening?

[Kyle Ceiss]

They were like. They were like, let's do that again.

[Brian Scott]

No, the second one was like, what's going on now? Like, you know, And I love. It's like, what's happening? And then the third one was like, oh, okay. But you can't get to the third without the second.

[Kyle Ceiss]

And in Back to the Future, one's idea of the timeline of the future 2015 would be flying cars, right? And here we are in 2024, going. Well, that hasn't happened yet, but there's different timelines. But they did get a lot right. Yeah, they did get a lot right. Yeah.

[Brian Scott]

In that. I'm still waiting for my hoverboard, though.

[Kyle Ceiss]

Right, but which does exist, I'm sure. I'm sure.

[Brian Scott]

No, there is an actual. There's an actual hoverboard. I saw it actually working, and they were doing it on pipe and everything. It's not nearly as cool as the One Future, too. It's a little clunkier, bigger, but it's there. It's not hitting the mass market anytime soon.

[Kyle Ceiss]

Those are the best movies. They're phenomenal.

[Brian Scott]

But, but, but, but that vibration, I love what you're saying, is that media has to evolve. And Hollywood, I don't think will. I don't think it can.

[Kyle Ceiss]

I don't think it can't.

[Brian Scott]

I mean, in its current leadership, corporate structures, it's not like. So let's go back for a second. In the 60s, Hollywood was falling apart. It was in bad, bad shape. It didn't have vhs, it didn't have cable. It didn't have any other revenue streams other than theatrical, essentially. We'll be right back after a word from our sponsor.

And now back to to the show. And if you were Disney, maybe some merchandising of some Mickey Mouse T shirts or something along those lines. Hollywood's in trouble and they really had no idea what to do. Then they said, okay, there's these bunch of kids who are coming out of film school. Let's give the keys to the looney to the inmates to run the asylum. And that's when Spielberg, Coppola, Martin Scorsese, the Brat Pack. And not the Brat Pack, but the best directors. Yeah, that whole generation, George Lucas, that whole generation, they gave them resources and they let them go. And they all were telling authentic stories. And it completely changed cinema forever. Forever after those, that group of six

[Kyle Ceiss]

or seven, which is coincidentally in alignment with all of the boom that happened in the 60s. You know, like this is the breaking off of conformity in the 40s.

[Brian Scott]

It was a hippie movement. Yeah, the hippie movement. Yeah, it was a destruction. But the seventies was a reckoning.

[Kyle Ceiss]

Yeah.

[Brian Scott]

Of that. And then the economy was down and you know, 70s is a rough decade. It was a rough, rough, rough decade. But in movies, that's when the movie started to come up and Then Hollywood had its boom in the 80s and 90s, which is where everyone comes back now to mind ideas. Why? Because they were connecting at a very deep level. I mean, you go back to watch the Goonies today, that doesn't happen today. Can you, you imagine green lighting the Goonies for a major theatrical.

[Kyle Ceiss]

Right.

[Brian Scott]

You know, Major theatrical.

[Kyle Ceiss]

Right.

[Brian Scott]

With the equivalent of 150 to 200 million dollars to make a movie like that. Or Gremlins. Yeah. Or any of these kind of little films. But that movement, that opened up a lot. But now it's so fear based. And Hollywood's fear is run by fear. Has been for a long time. You walk. I was just there this weekend. I told you I was flying in the same sounds that you were flying in back here. I was in Hollywood. I went to Warner Brothers. I was walking around and I was seeing not only the. It's basically the whole system is being run or being held up by nostalgia by the past. Has no idea where to go.

[Kyle Ceiss]

Yeah. Like we'll remake this movie again or we'll do it.

[Brian Scott]

But even just the buildings themselves, they were like from the 30s.

[Kyle Ceiss]

Yes. Literally.

[Brian Scott]

Literally. I was walk into a major soundstage. I'm looking around like that wall hasn't been changed since the 70s. Yeah.

[Kyle Ceiss]

And it's weird. Those are things like what you're talking about since the 30s. And those things, those are things that we idolized. They were the highest thing. Those movie stars, the John Waynes and those people. Right. That was the highest we knew. As we go up, we start to realize those things that we worshiped and put on pedestals are not our gods. And it's weird because as we go up in frequency, we'll start to look at these people that we. We put on a pedestal as immortal. And that's because they came through looking immortal. And we didn't know what their behind the scenes was at all. And we would just be like looking at these Marilyn Monroes and Cary Grants and all these different things and going, that's the answer to my life. And I dare people watching this. Did not do that with anything, even speakers or anything. And undo the idea of pedestals. Because if you put something up on a pedestal, you're taking yourself off of it and you're saying I'm less than. And so Hollywood in some way will have to collapse. Especially because quite a bit of it is based on control. There are agendas and there are people within those realms that are going, you know, we need to program people to believe this or get used to this or whatever. And if we take in the idea that in this time what truly is happening is the flushing out of control. Because control is the. Not the truth. So control in terms of people that are controlling, so anyone that has an agenda to control the planet in certain ways, control Hollywood, control the government. That's all coming to light. And the one thing control needs to collapse is have the light on it. So we're moving from a time where our own internal control is falling apart. That's why we're feeling so much pain and fear. We can't control our circumstances. We can't control what is. We can't control anything right now. We can't control what they think of us. We can't. We can't control. But that's okay because we're not supposed to. That's just the ego trying to control circumstances so it doesn't get hurt again when it was five. And if we understand that what's trying to happen is the collapse of control and anything that's not based on intuitive calling, Hollywood could shift to guided ideas like God would make insane movies through you. But then they lose the control aspect. And if they're still in their ego making movies going, how do we sell a bunch? They're gonna start losing money so. So quickly because they are losing money so quickly because it's seen through. Think of that. The light is too high for those movies to come out or stay out or control us. They just come out and go right to video now. And we don't choose them. And how many times also, have you noticed this for people watching? I have started a movie so many times and stopped it. Absolutely, I've started. So it's like, this isn't doing it. It would have done it 20 years ago.

[Brian Scott]

Oh, 10 years ago.

[Kyle Ceiss]

10 years ago.

[Brian Scott]

Yeah.

[Kyle Ceiss]

So get excited about. If nothing is working in making you happy, that's good. We're losing our attachments to something outside of me makes me happy. And moving to my happiness is now. You'll not get it through anything outside of this now. So when control falls out of. And it's happening, and that's why we're going chaotic and we're going to stop thinking in polarity. You know, both of the major political sides think the other side is completely evil. The control is so bad right now. The Democrats think that the Republicans are the most evil thing and vice versa.

[Brian Scott]

Right.

[Kyle Ceiss]

This isn't the truth. That doesn't make any sense. It shows how arbitrary our hate is because we'd all agree on the Same thing. But as we move up in frequency, we're gonna go. The part of me that doesn't like them, doesn't like a part of myself. And that's about to collapse too. And so what births instead is surrounding surrender. And if we are in surrender, then God will orchestrate the real loving God, the aspect, the universe, the true. You will create this world and it'll just be based on creativity. It'll just be on flow, just be on expansion. It will be a bizarre thing. When we look back at movies like Bloodsport as a form of entertainment and death everywhere, all of that, you know. But I think a reason we did like those movies is deep down we are fascinated by death because deeper down we want the ego to die. And death is not a scary thing. And when we get open, we start to fall in love with death. And I find the more you fall in love with death, I don't mean aiming for it, but fully accept it, you start to connect to a much higher frequency because death is just a part of life.

[Brian Scott]

Well, let me ask you this. When we were growing up, the movie star. I think it was the pinnacle of the movie star that a Stallone or a Schwarzenegger or a Tom Cruise. Cruise, who's arguably still somewhat of. Still a movie. The last kind of movie star.

[Kyle Ceiss]

Yeah.

[Brian Scott]

The fascination with movie stars is gone. Right. Have. No.

[Kyle Ceiss]

Isn't that exciting?

[Brian Scott]

Yeah. They have very little power because before, literally, I remember, you know, a bad Arnold Schwarzenegger when we would still pull 20 million weekend back in the day. That does not exist anymore. Even Tom Jr Jr. Yeah. That was a. That was an interesting one.

[Kyle Ceiss]

Yeah.

[Brian Scott]

Kindergarten Cop was great.

[Kyle Ceiss]

Kindergarten Cop was. Was needed.

[Brian Scott]

It was needed. It was a wonderful, wonderful.

[Kyle Ceiss]

True.

[Brian Scott]

It terrified a generation.

[Kyle Ceiss]

Yeah.

[Sponsor Voice - SpinQuest]

Of.

[Kyle Ceiss]

Of the kids or the bad guy in the. When Richard Tyson.

[Brian Scott]

Richard Tyson who I worked with.

[Kyle Ceiss]

Yeah.

[Brian Scott]

He's like. So many people come up to him all the time, like, you ruined my child.

[Kyle Ceiss]

It scared us when he did the gun through the window. Arnold SPORTS singer. That was one of the scariest moments of my childhood that he outside came in and did that.

[Brian Scott]

Oh, it was a terrible. It was terrifying. But so that movie star. And don't get me wrong, we had movie stars throughout Hollywood.

[Kyle Ceiss]

Yes.

[Brian Scott]

But the 80s, it was like the pinnacle of.

[Kyle Ceiss]

Yes.

[Brian Scott]

Now, now, nowadays, if you look at any quote unquote movie star, they have been doing it for 25 years.

[Kyle Ceiss]

Yes.

[Brian Scott]

Leonardo DiCaprio.

[Kyle Ceiss]

Yes.

[Brian Scott]

Tom Cruise, Brad Pitt, George and even they put them in the wrong film.

[Kyle Ceiss]

Yeah. You will never see Them because we're about content, not pet pedestals.

[Sponsor Voice - SpinQuest]

Right. That's.

[Kyle Ceiss]

In fact, some of the biggest movies lately have been no stars in it. Right?

[Brian Scott]

Exactly. Yeah, they've been no stars in it or they've been lesser stars. Like, they're known people, but they are not like movie stars anymore. This shift into social media or shift into YouTube. Yes. Where people are finding their people to put on a pedestal on YouTube. But they're all. The biggest ones are generally the most authentic ones. They're running around with their family or they're running around doing stuff. I can't say that all the time. Obviously, there's fakery and things like that, but I see it with my kids who watch YouTube. I'm like looking at what they're watching. I'm like, this guy is just sitting in his bedroom doing prank phone calls. And they're like, this is amazing.

[Kyle Ceiss]

How about this thing that we watch? This is a really interesting thing. There's nothing weirder to me than watching reaction videos.

[Brian Scott]

The best.

[Kyle Ceiss]

Let's think about this. For people that don't know Reaction videos are like a group of people are going to watch a thing. So we're going to watch a group of people hear a hit song for the first time.

[Brian Scott]

Like, yeah, I saw whole block with Eminem. Like, they could watch Eminem tracks and

[Kyle Ceiss]

they're like, oh, yeah. But isn't it weird that what we're watching is just people watching something? It'd be like going to a movie theater and staring at the audience. Right. Like, you're just.

[Brian Scott]

When you put it like that, it just sounds insane.

[Kyle Ceiss]

Yeah, it is. I made a video once where I did me reacting to. I was doing a spoof of that and I go, today we're going to watch hammer hitting nail. And you just see a hammer slowly hitting it and me just freaking out. And then I'm like, we're on our hundredth million viewer right now because it's a weird time. Because what is it we're looking for? We're looking for realistic. I'd rather identify with the person in the audience because that's more me than the thing we're idling.

[Brian Scott]

We'll be right back after a word from our sponsor.

[Brian Scott]

And now back to the show we're

[Kyle Ceiss]

actually idolizing now, the people in the audience, the people that are watching, the, the unknowns, the underdogs.

[Brian Scott]

So where do you think this goes as far as. As far as media? Because, you know, out of all the guests I've had, you're very, you're very. You're a great guest to talk about this stuff because you and I both were inside the machine.

[Kyle Ceiss]

Yes.

[Brian Scott]

And we have a viewpoint, a spiritual viewpoint looking back at the machine. Where do you see media moving to in the next five to 10 years? I mean, where do you see Hollywood? Where do you see this new. There's going to be a new. Yeah, a new Hollywood, not Hollywood, a new thing popping up.

[Kyle Ceiss]

I guess I think of it in terms and I'd make the media and entertainment industry be a byproduct of an overall frequency. Anything that is moving based on control and manipulation will just be seen right through. So it will dissolve all control needs secrecy and all secrecy is coming to light. It's such an exciting time. Right. So if you think about that, that means that the media, if they choose, choose to move forward with higher callings. And I'm sure there will be amazing, unique independent film producers that'll come out with a guided thing and it'll just do well on its. It'll be passed on by all the studios because it's not within their control realm. But then it'll independently do amazingly and then someone will buy it. And basically our frequency going up will be based on freedom expansion only because nothing else makes sense. And so I can't see any way that the media could create another agenda based control movie without people just panning it immediately and then anything that comes out. That's truly true. And it might be against what the higher ups want, but that doesn't matter. Our numbers and our frequency.

[Brian Scott]

Yeah, but they want money.

[Kyle Ceiss]

Yeah, they want money. So that's why we actually are going to be the change. There's no external hero that's going to do it. So you have to think of it in terms of anything inside of you. Anything in the world that has a dark agenda of control or cares much more about results than what's being created. Created will not make it. It's impossible. But you'll also see people that were doing those things will either addiction themselves away from the whole thing or they're going to heal themselves and have an awakening and create from that frequency.

[Brian Scott]

That's fascinating because I've been seeing that. So I live in a magical world where I understand YouTube very clearly and I understand Hollywood very clearly. And Neil, either of the two shall meet.

[Kyle Ceiss]

Right.

[Brian Scott]

I don't know if you've noticed that or not. They speak different languages. Totally. YouTube I think is more of a. Where we're going.

[Kyle Ceiss]

Yeah.

[Brian Scott]

Because of the free.

[Kyle Ceiss]

And it's still got too much control. It still censorship.

[Brian Scott]

It does have control and censorship, but it's the best we got.

[Kyle Ceiss]

Yeah.

[Brian Scott]

Right now. I mean, as far as like this show.

[Kyle Ceiss]

Without it to go.

[Brian Scott]

Yeah, without it, I couldn't have the audience I have, you know, it just. It's so. It is there. Is there potential to do better? Obviously there always is. But it's definitely a lot more open than old media. Without question. So I've noticed that more people were. The old media is trying to buy big shows here, all this stuff and bring the audience over to them because they are absolutely lost.

[Kyle Ceiss]

Isn't that crazy?

[Brian Scott]

Like Spotify's deal with Joe Rogan.

[Kyle Ceiss]

Yeah.

[Brian Scott]

You know those 500, $400 million.

[Kyle Ceiss]

I think that's partially started with Louis CK, believe it or not. Yeah.

[Brian Scott]

Oh, no. When Lou.

[Kyle Ceiss]

Yeah, when Louis, when he started doing his own things and making it $5 and all of a sudden, you know

[Brian Scott]

what I mean, he pulled like a million or two on the weekend.

[Kyle Ceiss]

He would basically produce his own shows. He would be offered deals left and right. He'd produce his own shows and Develop his own thing and his own audience. And his own audience, his own list, everything. And then instead of like doing a deal with Netflix or something, he would produce his own thing and he would charge $5 or whatever, a download and make money, millions, right? So he did it on his own. And there's this old dynamic of like, you gotta be discovered or you gotta wait till you have the right agency. When I booked 10 things I hate about yout, that's one of a couple movies that I did. I didn't have an agent, a headshot, I didn't have anything that I didn't have training. It was the first audition I ever had.

[Brian Scott]

You just walked in cold.

[Kyle Ceiss]

I had taken a casting director's class and I was funny in the class and was fun and everything like that. And a few weeks later, she was casting 10 Things I Hate about yout and thought of me and brought me in. Now here, this is the crazy part. I didn't have a headshot, experience, a resume, anything, but I was oblivious to the idea that I needed those things. Correct. And because of that, I was on a frequency where I brought the truest me in and there were other actors with all those things in there, but I was oblivious to the part of me that needed to be something they wanted in order to do this. And I brought me, I brought me in, stand up. I brought the cheesy face, I brought this thing, I brought all of these. And what happened was they not only gave me the part, but they rewrote it. I had a two day part that ended up being a six week shoot. They started making it bigger, they made the part expand. Why? Because instead of me being what they wanted me to be, I brought what I was to it. And this is why the biggest message I have is what you are is more powerful than what you think you need to be to get something. Had I believed I needed an agent or experience, I would have contracted my vibration in the the audition and been apologetic and sorry for what I, you know, were lacking, quote, unquote, right? Was lacking and need to be. And I've been in fear. And then, you know what's ironic? I booked that movie. I booked not another teen movie after that, did a few independents, a lot of TV appearances, and made the biggest mistake. I took an acting director class. I'm sorry, an acting class. And the acting class started telling me, you need to do this. And it took what I am away from me. It said, you need to read it perfectly. You gotta learn to say this. You gotta do it it this way. And before I took it, almost every audition I went in, I was free. I was Jim carrying in the room and I would book it. I booked commercial after commercial after commercial. And then I took an acting class. And she started saying, you gotta do this. You have to do this. You have to do it this way. Stop being. And she, like, took the magic out of me and put me in my head without meaning to. I'm not blaming it, but I started being what I thought I needed to be to others and lost the essence of what I tried. And so I stopped booking everything because what was I bringing in? Control. I need to be what they want versus being what I am. I believe very much. Had I stayed what I truly was and been oblivious to all the you have to crap, I probably would have booked so many more things. I booked not another teen movie without an agent. I had a friend just bring me to the set, you know, And I just booked, booked, booked everything. The second I heard I need to be what they tell me I need to be, I lost me. And I've been spending the last 20 years bringing him back. Because the true essence of what I am is so much more powerful than taking all the notes of all the content of all the things that I need to do and putting myself in my head. Right? So what you are is more powerful than everything you want. And when you stop being what you need to be to get things and be what you are, those things will chase you.

[Brian Scott]

And it's why I've never taken a how to be a podcast podcaster.

[Sponsor Voice - SpinQuest]

Of course.

[Kyle Ceiss]

Imagine if. Well, and you know how many one on ones I do with people that are like. I was taught that I need to market this way. I was taught that I have to say I only have 10 left to get people to run to the back of the room. Or I'm supposed to market it on Instagram with this sentence. There's no them, there's no you. You're just being what someone told you they did in a different timeline, in a different time. That'd be like taking a how to write music class from Michael Jackson and him saying, just write Billie Jean. That's what I did. And it worked. So if you write Billie Jean, it'll be a hit. It's a hit song. It worked. It's foolproof. You write Billie Jean now.

[Brian Scott]

Tarantino said the exact same thing he did when I was in Comic Con. Yeah, I was there in Hall H. They were talking about Death Proof. Him and Robert were up there and someone Was like, what advice do you have for independent filmmakers? And he goes, right, Reservoir Dogs. That's all I could do. That's what I did.

[Kyle Ceiss]

That's right.

[Brian Scott]

He goes, I have no advice for you. Like, I can't make that for you. Yeah, I wrote my reservoir.

[Kyle Ceiss]

Which is the best advice.

[Brian Scott]

I wrote my Reservoir Dogs. Yes. And that's how I became who I became. Because he was true to himself, is what he was trying to say.

[Kyle Ceiss]

I mean, one thing that points out and yeah, imagine if Quentin Tarantino took from Steven Spielberg how to be a director. He would have just been an amalgam of some of his ideas with fully repeating Steven Spielberg.

[Brian Scott]

Correct.

[Kyle Ceiss]

Right. And I think that's one of the biggest things to offer here, is that I know that every single person has a magical, unique unfolding that's trying to happen to them and for them. And one mistake they make is going, what do I do with this? I'll get advice from someone else. And then they lose the guidance system or they check in with others. Should I do this right. That don't have that same calling, but that calling, that little do this thing that opens your heart up is so legit and so real. And if you just go, okay, I don't know why, but this thing is here. And no one understands it. This thing is here. You will start the process of birthing a new world. And it's trying to happen for you. You just have to follow your unique thing. And this is to every person in the world. There is a unique thing trying to happen for you. And some people think when they hear the highest excitement idea or, you know, Bashar's thing, that that means it has to be a grandiose thing like that you. Everyone rents the theater and does the same thing, right? But it's also in just being in the now. It's also in drinking water. It's, you know, it's in listening. What's the truest thing I can do in this second and following it?

[Brian Scott]

You were talking about Darryl Darrell Anka, who's Bashar, who channels Bashar. I love Daryl, friend of the show and known him for for over a decade. We'll be right back after a word from our sponsor.

And now back to the show. These ideas of this timeline shifting, we've kind of touched upon it. But what is your feeling on this? Kind of like parallel real realities and also this shifting in timeline? Because the way, from what I understand is like when you are lifting in a vibration, there is a group, a reality that you're being part of.

[Kyle Ceiss]

Yes.

[Brian Scott]

So I don't want to get to the Mandela effect.

[Kyle Ceiss]

That's a whole other thing. Yeah, no problem.

[Sponsor Voice - SpinQuest]

But.

[Brian Scott]

But you start getting into these other realities.

[Kyle Ceiss]

Yes.

[Brian Scott]

Do you believe that when we do make certain decisions, like there's a reality that you're saying, still a comic, probably very depressed somewhere. Very depressed as a comic. Another. Another timeline that you are not part of, you left that timeline, but there's another version of you. And from my understanding of quantum physics, understanding from the mystical side, that there's infinite versions of us out in the universe.

Yeah.

Living different lives, where you got married, where you didn't become a comic, where you became a janitor or something like that in those lifetimes, what is your feeling on what Bashar is saying and how that kind of questions coincides with this parallel idea?

[Kyle Ceiss]

One of the things I offer and do for myself completely is truly do the very best I can to live it and see, because it unfolds in its own unique way. And I do what I can. Also to not get too heady in the specifics of the invisible or which way it works because it works through my action versus my analysis.

[Brian Scott]

It's a feeling. Not here, it's here.

[Kyle Ceiss]

Do you remember when the movie the Secret said, when you have a thought, what you focus on expands and it shows this invisible thought. Leave the person and then make change? I don't know if that's what happens. You know what I mean? And one of the things that's changed my life dramatically is being in love with I don't know. The real truth is I don't know what happened before I was born. I don't know what'll happen when I die. I don't know the real truth of how far the universe expands. One of the things I really love to celebrate is that I don't know, because one of the things we try to do is wrap our mind around the infinite. You're trying to wrap the thing that you've had for whatever, 40, 50 years controlling the infinite. How could you wrap your mind around the infinite? So instead of wrapping your mind around the infinite, surrender the mind and enjoy the infinite without understanding it. I don't know the specifics about if it's a literal parallel reality or what, but I have had enough experiential change through finding an opening that says, follow this. And then I do, and all of reality changes. I find myself suddenly no longer the person that wants to do that. I become the person that does it. I no longer am the limitation that says I can't do that. I no longer have the fear that says, what if I do that? Because once I do it, it's gone. So there's. There's no more. Like, it purges that through following it. So it's almost as if when I follow a highest calling to move to a more expansive me, right? It lets go of the old me. It's gone. So one example would be the relationship that I've entered. I'm in an amazing relationship with my fiance, Amber. And it's expansive and it's based on love and listening and healing. Both of us are in the work. We both are in this relationship. Relationship for the purpose of expansion. In the past, I've had wonderful relationships. But sometime there was an unworthy me. That was a pattern. I had a mom that loved me so much, but also kind of rolled her eyes. Whenever I'd tell her I'm on a late night show tonight, she'd say, like, well, what's at pay?

[Brian Scott]

What's.

[Kyle Ceiss]

When are you gonna get a real job? Yeah. And so my pattern was always attracted to cynical women. So I Could prove to them, which is really me proving to my mom I'm legitimate. And one of the things that we do, if you have a fear of abandonment because your dad abandoned you or something, you might, for people watching, you might date a guy that will abandon you. So the ego can fix it, but then if it could fix it, then that ego wouldn't be there. So the ego doesn't actually want to fix anything. It wants to start the process of fixing it, but it's based on that you have the problem. So the second I followed my highest and said the relationship that I'm in really wants to hear, hear my soul, she really loves me. This killed the one that was attracted to women that were cynical of me. Do you get what I'm saying? I get what you're saying. So the guy that wanted mom's approval is just dying right now because he said yes to something that actually expands my soul. So every decision I make is, does it expand me? If it expands, so does the career that I have expand me? Does the people in my life expand me? Does the relationship expand? If it does, then I'm in. But the only factor of what decision I make with everything I do is is it taking me past me to the truest self and is it making the old me die? So I find that the parallel reality I find is the death of the egoic pattern that was my parents, ego's kid. And the birth is I'm God's kid, the now's kid, I'm infinite love's kid. This me doesn't work based on fear and protection nearly as much as it moves based on. On expansion. Fear is still there, but it comes up so it can leave.

[Brian Scott]

Beautifully said, right?

[Kyle Ceiss]

One thing people say is, kyle, sometimes I want to follow my heart, but guilt arises. And my answer is, it's coming up because it's coming out. In other words, your old life was based on keeping the guilt there. So if you follow your soul, the guilt will come up so it can purge. Right. So when you follow your heart, you might feel guilt. Well, I'm leaving this person that doesn't look line, but I'm responsible for their feelings. Well, the guilt's coming up so it can come out. And when you finally follow your soul, it goes. Yeah, we're not here to keep things going based on guilt. We're here to transcend guilt because it's not the truth. So for people with regret, follow your heart, and it'll transcend the regret for resentment or fear or anything.

[Brian Scott]

It seems like that basically to kind of nutshell everything we've talked about for these last couple hours.

[Kyle Ceiss]

Yeah, it's fun.

[Brian Scott]

Is that we are, we're looking for truth now. We're looking for authenticity. Yes. We're looking for that. And we are at that vibration, that frequency as a society. And that's why it's painful, because it's not a lot of it out there right now. These other systems are coming crashing down because of the idea of control. And, and I can just name off the industry.

[Kyle Ceiss]

Yeah.

[Brian Scott]

And they all want control of you.

[Kyle Ceiss]

And it's gone. They've lost it. Celebrate losing control.

[Brian Scott]

The Internet really was the stone that was dropped in the pond. And the ripples are still going on because yes, the Internet is controlled to a certain extent, but it is the

[Kyle Ceiss]

last bit much freer.

[Brian Scott]

It's the freedom that the Internet allows the world to connect to everybody else. Yeah. It is essentially an analogy of who we truly are. We are all connected. Yes. We are all one, you know, and, and I always, I always talk about people because I've talked to so many near death experiencers. They go, when, when they go to the other side, they're automatically connected to infinite knowledge about anything they want. So they just ask the question in their head. They instantly understand it. Not intellectually, but just, they just know. Yeah, they just know what it is. It's so. It's kind of like you're connecting to the cloud.

[Kyle Ceiss]

Yeah. And wouldn't that be the highest goal?

[Sponsor Voice - SpinQuest]

Yeah.

[Kyle Ceiss]

Like when people are like, yeah, yeah, yeah, connect to source. I get it. But I got this business, I gotta get started. It's like, dude, you're not gonna believe what this thing does to your business.

[Brian Scott]

Correct.

[Kyle Ceiss]

It might even make you let go of it. Cause it's got higher. I find the higher I go up, the more it wants to purge everything I've ever wanted, even. Oh, it goes.

[Brian Scott]

Yeah.

[Kyle Ceiss]

Because what I have is even more exciting than that. There's nothing more exciting than your connection to Source.

[Brian Scott]

I tell you what, when I, when I was, I mean, I wanted to be a big movie director. I wanted to do, you know, Blockbusters, I wanted to be Steven Spielberg, I wanted to be Scorsese, I wanted to be James Cameron and work with these kind of giant canvases with big paintbrushes and, you know, do a Marvel movie and all that kind of stuff. If that was presented to me now, I'd say absolutely not. Not because the movies have gone a little weaker lately. But, but generally speaking, it's just not something I'm Interested in. I could be tempted by that.

[Kyle Ceiss]

So where would you think? I mean, without even knowing you'd be in five years, like, if at one point someone could have offered that to

[Brian Scott]

you, I would have taken it in a heartbeat.

[Kyle Ceiss]

Yeah. And so think of how good things must be about to get as we connect more and more to what we are. Your consciousness is too high to take something that at one point your consciousness would have died for. Right. So that means your consciousness is expanding and you can't get out of it.

[Sponsor Voice - OnDeck]

It.

[Kyle Ceiss]

And it's expanding so exponentially now. Like, it doesn't move like this. It moves, like, ramp up. Yeah. And it's just flying now.

[Brian Scott]

It seems fine for a lot of people. What's that? Everything seems to be moving very fast. Yeah. So as a society, as humanity, there seems to be that frequency is. I mean, things are changing so fast.

[Kyle Ceiss]

Oh, yeah.

[Brian Scott]

So, so fast. And it's not positive all the time, but meaning, like, the change is all positive. Okay, it is all positive, but people's perception of it isn't always all positive. Like right now, it's fast and move fast and break things. That's exactly what the humanities consciousness is doing with the wars and the economic issues and the food. You know, food and medicine and media and religion. All those things are just crackling around us because we're all just going so fast. I mean, remember in the 70s, everything was a molasses change took forever. From VHS to DVD was what, 15 years? Yeah. Okay. From DVD to streaming was like, what, eight years? Nine years? Maybe a little longer. I mean, really. And then for Hollywood to jump onto the streaming, it took a decade. A decade From Netflix Netflix to Disney plus took 10 years. That's how slow they moved. And they were left behind. We'll be right back after a word from our sponsor.

[Brian Scott]

And now back to the show.

[Kyle Ceiss]

Well, and you know what's interesting is I like to think of like we kind of are think of consciousness in terms of technology.

[Brian Scott]

Right.

[Kyle Ceiss]

So in the 70s and 80s we had a rotary phone.

[Brian Scott]

Correct.

[Kyle Ceiss]

Now we have iPhone, whatever, 16 that can do everything right. Now, most of us, one of our pain points is trying to get approval from our parents who grew up in that time.

[Brian Scott]

Correct.

[Kyle Ceiss]

So imagine an iPhone 16 trying to get approval from a rotary phone.

[Brian Scott]

Oh, oh.

[Kyle Ceiss]

And it's making the mistake of not understanding you've evolved past your parents. And my most cases if you're watching a show like this and you meditate and you do the inner work, you've outgrown usually the consciousness of your parents and grandparents in most cases. And so a lot of people are doing what they can to make the mistake of trying to get their parents to see them or get approval from people that are not in the same frequency as they are. So they're contracting their energy and trying to get it. It'd be like a butterfly trying to get a caterpillar to approve of it. When the that be weird and the caterpillar won't, it'll be annoyed at you because you're flying and it's not. It'll be like you think I'm.

[Brian Scott]

You think you're so fancy.

[Kyle Ceiss]

You think I do everything wrong and you do everything right. And that's why a lot of times the more you free yourself, the more attacked you get.

[Brian Scott]

Yes.

[Kyle Ceiss]

Because you're living freer than them and people are really triggered by people that are freer than them. This is a weird point to make up, but I learned one day that 95% of gay porn is downloaded in the Bible belt states.

[Brian Scott]

Yes.

[Kyle Ceiss]

So the more that someone's in resistance to something, that's because they are repressing that in themselves and mad if someone else has the freedom that they don't have. So they get madder about it. Like, I'm not gay, but I don't have judgment of it. But that's because it's not something I'm repressing in myself and wishing I could have. So when you're attacked, understand it's people that truly are jealous of the frequency that you're emitting. And when we try to stop ourselves and cut ourselves off, cut our wings off and shrink ourselves and be like, please like me again, we're nuts. Right? That's the worst thing to do. And that's why we have to let go of the need for approval and receive. You know, it's a weird thing that these iPhones now have to upgrade like every two weeks. Right? Like they have to upgrade all the time. So you do too. You upgrade yourself and stop trying to get your parents. That might not be a thing. That needs to upgrade and is watching Matlock and staying in their angry addicted energy. You don't need to get other people to approve of you. You need to find the infinite love of the now and let it approve of you and heal the wounds that you're supposed to be seen on the third density. That's what I see third density as the approval from other humans. The approval from other people. Right. That you are attached to things versus understanding the truth of what you are.

[Brian Scott]

Right, Kyle? It's. That's so, so beautiful, this conversation. I'm going to ask you a few questions. Ask all my guests.

[Kyle Ceiss]

Sure.

[Brian Scott]

What is your definition of living a fulfilled life?

[Kyle Ceiss]

Well, now it's more and more accepting the now. It's just acceptance of the now. Even if you're feeling a feeling, can you accept it? Can you feel totally horrified and accepted? Can you feel lost and accept it? So true. Success. It's so simple. Because it's only now. Ego hates that because it wants to go somewhere else and overcome now and get to the now. The ego literally thinks, I'm going to get in the now later.

[Brian Scott]

I don't have time for the now now. I have a time for it later.

[Kyle Ceiss]

Right? I'm going to work on getting in the now. So it literally creates a timeline to escape the now under the guise of it's being the now and your understanding and acceptance of everything in your life right now, that's what actually changes it, right? The more you accept it, the more things change. So true success or whatever the question was fulfillment of life. True fulfillment of life. Is through your acceptance of now.

[Brian Scott]

If you had a chance to go back in time, jump into a DeLorean, go back in time, and talk to little Kyle, what advice would you give him?

[Kyle Ceiss]

I would tell him nothing because if he heard anything, all of his life would be different. Literally anything. If I had gone back and given him five and left, I probably wouldn't have my daughter. You know, I wouldn't be in the relationship I'm in now. I don't even know that I would have been a comic because I know so much that one move we make changes everything.

[Brian Scott]

Yep.

[Kyle Ceiss]

Like, if this podcast was scheduled to end at a certain time, but if, let's say, like, this is so trippy. But if I go like this now, it ends at a different time. Now I go through a different traffic light that I might have been at a red light, maybe the car behind me stops. That would have gone through right now. That guy goes into the store and either now misses the love of his life or discovers the love of his life because he waited a minute. Now different children are born based on me going, now a whole new set of kids again. Isn't that crazy? Totally new people, right? Literally a whole new society based on that moment. Our problem and our pain is that we think something happened to the small us. And we don't get how much world is changing through every second, right? So if you're sitting here going, I'm so sad because they dumped me.

[Brian Scott]

Right?

[Kyle Ceiss]

You're in your small self and you don't get that a whole new world just birthed and all kinds of different things are happening. So your problem is you're looking through the lens of the small self versus the truth.

[Brian Scott]

Beautiful answer. How do you define God now?

[Kyle Ceiss]

This space, complete acceptance, complete forgiveness, infinite love. This space that's here right now and the space that is around anyone that's one watching. This is a tangible, real thing. It has infinite ideas. It has unconditional love. It has all the healing powers. This space right here is the only thing that's true, right? That to me, is God. It's not mad, it's not angry. It's not punishy, it's not vengeful. We need to transcend our idea of a vengeful, egoic human God with a bunch of money, mood issues to move to one that moves based on expansion and healing and true forgiveness. That causes you to release the old habits that don't serve you. That causes you to bring unconditional forgiveness and love to others so that you can become the true version of what you are. What is love also now? Actually, the same answer as God. Okay, Love is what you are. Love is the now. Love is all, all that is. And the only thing that blocks it is the unseen, which is also loved. But once it's seen, it's loved. And it alchemizes. So anything that's not the truth is just buried in the dark. And love is the seeing of it. And that's how we actually change. It's not through doing, it's through seeing. There's a reason why if you go deeper, you meditate long enough, some people just start crying. What is that? Like, how could. What happened? What happened? Oh, they saw something that was buried. So the act was seeing. And so seeing something is love. Like in a relationship, the number one thing each person wants to feel is understood. So you can do that, but you can also do that with yourself. And one mistake people make is, I'm seeing when someone else sees me. That's what creates the codependency. Like, I can't see the truth in me until you see it. Real love says, I'm going to be a space for you to see the thing you want them to see. And then you'll see it, it'll alchemize and then you'll be shocked that everyone sees it. So love is seeing, I think, is actually what I would, I would put as my answer.

[Brian Scott]

And what is the ultimate purpose of life?

[Kyle Ceiss]

The ultimate purpose, in my opinion now more and more, is to know what I truly am. Because when you do that, you bring the space of infinite love and unconditional presence and healing to the world. I also point out to people it's such an f you to God for us to chase an egoic purpose like that. In other words, what I mean by that is the idea, and this is another thing I think Bashar would say the idea that you exist already is your purpose. Like the idea that you're going to decide it's when I'm a chef or it's when I write the book is a funny thing. And you're already thinking from lack and believe that you're existence isn't your purpose. So my belief is you can't get out of purpose. And that is good news because that means even the hard times, the block times, the unloving energies, the times where you're stuck are all in purpose. And you can't grow without those moments.

[Brian Scott]

And where can people find out more about you and the amazing work you're

[Kyle Ceiss]

doing in the world? Thank you brother. There's two things I would offer. One I would just say to people, please subscribe to my YouTube channel kyleseiss.com I'm very and go to my website kylesis.com unlocked for so many different events that we have, we have a membership site that's unbelievable. And one of the things that I'm really excited about is making products that used to be thousands of dollars now making them for 20. I made a product recently called the angel youl Forgot About. This is a product I'm so excited about. It's a nine hour course that we literally made $20. They can get it at Kyle C. Stock. The reason I call it the angel you Forgot about is that whenever you're in really really hard time, we often look down in the darkness and try to fix it at the level of the darkness. And we don't understand that always there's an angel available in one way or another. And I say this because almost five years ago now, I almost committed suicide. I was standing on an overpass waiting for the specific semi to hit me and and a friend of mine who is a dear friend and space holder named Mary called me. It was almost like this angel was available to just listen and she held a space for me and she listened and I cried enough out that I didn't do it. And whenever we're in a really hard time, we overlook the angels that are available in God, in nature, in a therapist, in a good friend, in a space holder, in a book, in journaling, in a habit, whatever.

And now back to the show.

[Kyle Ceiss]

And whenever I have hard times, I've really gotten better and better at finding the angel that I forgot about that there's a higher thing that's trying to do something through me. And if we stop getting obsessed with the issue that we're in and looking at the level of the issue and trying to control the issue and instead using the angel to climb up the ladder, right then we all of a sudden connect to a higher frequency and it goes, hey, that issue will be purged if you just grab onto the angel. So if people go to kyleseisse.com angel or if they want they can go to kylesease.com unlocked they can see all of that. But It's a non nine hour video series from a two day live event that I made $20 and people love it. It's life changing. We sold so many of them. But we want to make like this is a shift in consciousness right here. In the old days, self help, we used to offer these things for thousands of dollars. Right. I just want to be in service and just it still creates an income and a profit and at the same time it's still so affordable and will pay for itself over and over and over. So a shift to me is like moving to more and more service and just enjoying giving it all the time versus trying to create a giant hurdle to make it hard for people to get to. That's control and that's about selfishness and that's about what do I get. So we try to make these things as affordable as possible to get it to the masses much more than this kind of higher ticket item thing.

[Brian Scott]
