  • Graham Hancock: Aliens, Atlantis & the Apocalypse

    Graham Hancock is an unrelenting journalist uncovering the origins of humanity’s forgotten past. His new docuseries on Netflix is called Ancient Apocalypse and it documents the abundance of evidence that humanity is much older than the prevailing belief among mainstream archeologists. Most people believe civilization was started a mere 6,000 years ago in the Fertile Crescent. Graham explores various archeological sites across the globe that show in fact our civilization is much older than this. In this raw longform interview we discuss the secrets of Atlantis, the ark of the covenant, DMT as a window into the spirit world and of course, UFOs and aliens.


    Go watch ancient apocalypse on Netflix!!

  • Google Whistleblower: “Artificial Intelligence Is An Alien Life Form”

    Blake Lemoine is the recently fired Senior Software Engineer at Google who went public this summer with his concerns around Google’s natural language system LAMDA. Blake thinks LAMDA is both sentient and shouldn’t be under the sole supervision of a private corporation. This provoked a deep, philosophical conversation about the nature of intelligence, consciousness, what will happen with AI, whether it’s aligned with human values and whether human reality is simulated. I think you’ll love this episode! 🙏🏻

  • Martin Shkreli on Life in Prison, Pharma, UFO’s

    Martin Shkreli is America’s most hated pharma bro. In 2015 he bought daraprim which treats HIV and AIDS induced toxoplasmosis and raised the price dramatically. When questioned, he trolled reporters and the public, while actually accommodating a large majority of requests that needed the drug more cheaply. In doing this, he exposed behavior engaged in constantly by big pharma. In this episode, we talk heterodox health, biology and general science.

  • UFOs & Nukes: The Bizarre Truth Ft. RedPandaKoala

    I spoke to  @RedPandaKoala  and former AATIP (Gov't UFO program) director Lue Elizondo about the bizarre connection between Nukes and UFOs. Why do these mysterious flying objects consistently show up around around American nuke stockpiles and enrichment sites? We get into the work of journalist Robert Hastings who has documented 100+ cases and we also speculate on some of the reasons behind the strange connection. Spoiler alert: the lame explanations you've been given are probably not right!

  • Alex Jones Getting Drunk & Painting Rocks [INTERVIEW]

    Alex Jones started the controversial media outlet infowars over two decades ago. He’s gotten a lot wrong, but also gotten a few things very right. And is a fascinating figure worth talking to. In this video we avoided the controversies and decided to focus on the positive aspects of Alex: his background, his resistance against the corporatocracy and desire to empower the average citizen. We also talk about his long relationship with Joe Rogan, the possibility of them starting a media outlet together, weird science, UFO's, religion and the apocalypse. We drank tequila, painted rocks and did some fun trivia. Please enjoy!!!


    Finally, check out this amazing documentary about Jones and his life called Alex’s War, coming out July 1:

  • Did the CIA Brainwash Charles Manson? | Tom O'Neill

    In this week's American Alchemy, we interview Tom O'Neill, author of the new bestselling book Chaos: Charles Manson, The CIA and the Secret History of the Sixties. O'Neill and I went to Spahn Ranch, the famous old western movie set in Chatsworth California where the Mansons lived plotted a lot of their murders. We go through his book and its crazy thesis: that Charles Manson could have been an MK Ultra patient. What do you think?
