[00:00:00] Alex Tsakiris: Um, This episode of skeptical. A show about love and the extended consciousness realm.

[00:00:10] Nelson Apostata: We can’t directly establish causation, right? If you look at what Richard Dolan was describing of the tall greys and the reported experiences of these people are overwhelming love, and you compare this to.

The near-death experience reports of this overwhelming love. And then you look at, for instance, the new Testament and it’s all about love. Love is all that matters. We also look at the counterculture in the sixties, 1960s with the Beatles. All you need is love.

And I just started to get a little bit suspicious of this. Why is it always just love? Why is it only about that? And not about for instance, material accomplishments in this world? Why is it always just life?

[00:00:54] Alex Tsakiris: And why we might not want to go all fan boy on the love thing.

[00:01:01] Clip: Hey, remember when you were in the, the Beatles and, uh, you did that, um, album Abbey road and, uh, , the song, it goes, uh, and in the end, the law you take is equal to the love you make you remember that.

Is that true?

that’s Christen in my experience, it is. I find the more you give, the more you get .

[00:01:40] Alex Tsakiris: I have an interview coming up in a minute with Nelson insert pseudo name there. Who did just a fantastic interview with me a couple months ago. I have no idea why I sat on this as long as I did. It’s actually so good that I’ve broken it up into two parts because we talk about. So many things.

And we talk about this other subject world. I kind of hint at, at the end, but it’s so different, that I wanted to break it into a separate episode.

But anyway, all this other great stuff is coming up now in my interview with Nelson, we rolled right into this. So I will say.

Welcome to skeptical where we explore controversial science and spirituality with leading researchers, thinkers, and their critics. I’m your host, Alex. and today we welcome a guy who just amazing to me that Nelson found. The show and then found me through the forum. I feel so grateful to have connected with him. He’s so smart and has brought so many brilliant.

New fresh ideas to the table, this kind of level three discussion. Is exactly what I love to do in these shows. So he doesn’t have a website. It doesn’t have a book yet. He’s just a really, really smart guy. And I hope you enjoy this dialogue with him.

[00:03:00] Nelson Apostata: Is that a lot with you then? Just if we cause I’ve, I’ve written notes, just the bad, the highlights of this and you remember our discussions way back. Cause you know, I know she was doing the, the website for you, the Facebook site and that you should videos. Yeah. I mean,

[00:03:16] Alex Tsakiris: so we go way back, we go way back my man.

So you know, we, we ought to start with I mean, that’s, that’s, that’s enough of a reason to chat out. What,
