Joining me is Nathaniel Gillis to discuss historical demons and the alien interpretation; as well as the power of the mind to make entities real, and to share stories of otherworldly encounters. Nathaniel Gillis is a demonologist, author and lecturer. After living in a haunted house, Nathaniel spent 20 years researching what it was he encountered. Nathaniel has sought to redefine the nature of haunting phenomena, ghosts and high strangeness. As one of the thought leaders in his field, Nathaniel’s hypothesis is not that aliens are demons but that a singular intelligence has worn both as masks in which to hide. In fact, he is often quoted for his concept of the phenomenon…. "The reason they are playing by different rules is because they are playing a different game.” https://www.instagram.com/thenathanielj.gillis/ PLEASE HELP THE CHANNEL GROW ☕️ SUBSCRIBE, like, comment, and click the Notification Bell so you don’t miss a show.

Garret Yount from the Institute of Noetic Sciences joins me to discuss lucid dreaming - a state of consciousness where dreamers become aware they are dreaming, and how that allows those struggling with PTSD to heal from traumatic experiences while asleep. According to a recent study, conducted by the Institute of Noetic Sciences (IONS), participants who learned to lucid dream could confront and overcome their nightmares, establishing a sense of control over their experiences and minimizing the frequency and severity of their nightmares. We’ll also discussed the science behind energy and “vibes”, consciousness, and heart-to-heart communication; and how our understanding these seemingly metaphysical concepts can improve our well being. Garret Yount, PhD, is a Scientist at IONS where his research focuses on mapping the mind-gene interface. He obtained his BS from the Department of Molecular & Cell Biology at the Pennsylvania State University, and his PhD from the Department of Neurobiology & Behavior at the State University of New York at Stony Brook.

This pop-up episode is an open chat to discuss UFO modern history and more! With guests Race Hobbs and John Burroughs, the hosts of Phenomenon Radio on The Un-X Network. John gives his most brief and concise summary of his experience during the 1980 Rendlesham Forest Incident at RAF Bentwater, and it's quite impressive! Critique is not held back regarding social media UAP video drops and promotional activity, with due respect for the players involved. We spend time discussing where the most valuable UFO evidence will come from, and where to best invest one's time. Race reflects on a past UFO investigation that was highly fantastical and difficult to believe - yet supplied by a highly qualified individual. https://www.unxnetwork.com/phenomenonradio Please rate the Mystic Lounge podcast on iTunes or wherever you listen to podcasts.

This episode should have posted in December, and yet somehow, here we are! Joining me for the last show of 2022 is Julia Cannon, author of “Soul Speak: The Language of Your Body.” Julia was born in Hutchinson, Kansas to Johnny and Dolores Cannon. Johnny was a career Navy man, so they moved frequently and she had the advantage of an open-minded up-bringing. She was raised with the understanding that psychic phenomenon and metaphysics were common place and she was always exploring new avenues of growth. https://www.juliacannon.com/ Julia Cannon became a registered nurse and worked in Intensive Care and Home Health for the duration of her 20+ year career. She then decided to explore other aspects of the healing profession and has trained in Reconnective Healing and Dolores Cannon’s QHHT. Her energy healing has taken on its own dimension and has formed into something she calls “Lightcasting.” Intuitive lights come from the hands to direct energy where it is needed to balance any deficiencies in the body. This balancing may be happening on the physical, mental and/or spiritual level. While she is working in someone’s field, she gets intuitive messages/impressions of what is happening and what is needed to help the person bring about their healing.

Joining me is Dr. R. Andrew Chesnut to discuss Santa Muerte, offering a fascinating portrayal of the skeleton saint whose cult has attracted millions of devotees over the past decade. Although condemned by mainstream churches, this folk saint's supernatural powers appeal to millions of Latin Americans in the U.S. Devotees believe the Bony Lady (as she is affectionately called) to be the fastest and most effective miracle worker, and as such, her statuettes and paraphernalia now outsell those of the Virgin of Guadalupe and Saint Jude, two other giants of Mexican religiosity. Most often portrayed as a woman, she has a universal appeal, and is embrassed by women who feel disempowered, and by a large number of LGBTQ people. She is the a saving grace to some, while the antithesis of Christianity to others. https://www.amazon.com/Devoted-Death-Santa-Muerte-Skeleton/dp/0199764654 Andrew is the Bishop Walter F. Sullivan Chair in Catholic Studies and Professor of Religious Studies at Virginia Commonwealth University. He is the author of the first academic book in English on the fastest growing New Religious Movement in the Americas - Devoted to Death: Santa Muerte, the Skeleton Saint (OUP, 2012 & 2017), with translations in Spanish, Polish, French, Italian, and Turkish), Competitive Spirits: Latin America's New Religious Economy (OUP, 2003) and Born Again in Brazil: The Pentecostal Boom and the Pathogens of Poverty (Rutgers University Press,1997) as well as numerous book chapters, journal articles and scores of media interviews. https://worldstudies.vcu.edu/directory/chesnut.html PLEASE HELP THE CHANNEL GROW • SUBSCRIBE, like, comment, and click the Notification Bell so you don’t miss a show.
