On this episode of Neon Galactic, we sit down with experiencer, researcher, author and seeker Daniel Rekshan to discuss his life, work, and perspective on the ongoing contact phenomenon and what it means for humanity.

Rekshan is a hypnotist, artist, dream worker, and freelance shaman who has been working over the past several years to help experiencers contextualize their contact and interpret it within the framework of their own lives.

Reskshan argues that shamanism offers a model by which people can take the power back over their own experiences and escape the sort of victimhood that has been placed on them by some of the operative narratives in the UFO/NHI space.

Rekshan believes in the reality of contact, but maintains that its reality has much to do`with humanity’s experience of dreaming. That imaginal realm is the nexus, confluence or meeting point where these different worlds and entities seem most prone to connect. He does NOT argue that abductions and downloads are merely dreams, rather than the dreams appear to be the technology or mechanism deployed by the other for making contact.

On this episode of Neon Galactic, we interview Karin Austin of Archives of the Impossible and the John Mack Institute about her experience at Sol this year, and her work to help make experiencer metadata accessible to researchers.

Karin Austin is an experiencer who participated in John Mack’s research into the alien encounter phenomenon during the late 1990s. She later evolved into a role as his personal assistant.

After John’s passing, she helped the Mack family with the closing of his estate and was directly responsible for preparing John’s home-based archives for storage

She has spent the last years working to make the metadata available from Mack’s years of research, clinical sessions, and correspondence available for deeper study.

We discuss how the subject of contact fits into the larger political dynamics of the United States, and how the messages long received by abductees and experiencers have been predicting a collapse. Are we upon that moment?

How do we move forward as a topic under these social stressors?

We also discuss how the nature of contact has changed over the years, and what that might mean.

On this episode of Neon Galactic, we interview Dr. Gregory Shushan, author and researcher of near-death experiences throughout history in cultures all around the world.

We discuss the phenomenology of NDEs, their role in the creation of religion, how they relate to other contact modalities, and their problematic status in academia.

We also cover how the subject has shaped Shushan’s own thinking about the afterlife, and how various texts throughout history seem to outline what appears to be a relatively consistent picture of what happens after people die.

Shushan is a historian of religions, an award-winning author, and the leading authority on near-death experiences and the afterlife across cultures and throughout history.

Shushan is a Visiting Research Fellow at University of Winchester's Centre for Death, Religion and Culture; Adjunct Professor of Thanatology at Marian University; and Research Fellow of the Parapsychology Foundation.

He was formerly Perrott-Warrick Researcher at University of Oxford's Ian Ramsey Centre for Science and Religion; Scholar-in Residence at the Centro Incontri Umani (The Cross Cultural Centre), Ascona, Switzerland; and Honorary Research Fellow at the Religious Experience Research Centre, University of Wales Trinity Saint David.

He has lectured at universities in the UK, Ireland, and Switzerland and has given numerous talks on his research in nine countries, and has appeared on the History Channel.He holds degrees in Religious Studies (University of Wales Lampeter), Research Methods for the Humanities, Egyptian Archaeology (University College London), and Eastern Mediterranean Archaeology (Birkbeck College, University of London).

He is currently (2024) working towards his second PhD with a project on near-death experiences in Classical antiquity.

On this episode of Neon Galactic, we interview Michael Phillip, host of the popular Third Eye Drops podcast, about his show, his thinking, and how a recent out-of-body experience has impacted his life. 

Third Eye Drops is a long-running and popular podcast that covers a broad range of subjects and phenomena that challenge the predominant materialistic worldview and feature the work of such important thinkers as Car Jung, Iamblichus, and others. 

His cross-disciplinary approach, wide-ranging guest list, and fantastic conversations have helped me in shaping my own journey, as he often wrestles with the same issues and questions I do here. 

We discuss his recent experience at a Monroe Center retreat, where he experienced and out-of-body state that was both scary and revelatory. He gives us a brief history of the center and of the methodologies used. 

We discuss how that system parallels the thinking of sources as varied as the theosophists, the trans-Himalayan wisdom tradition, neoplatonism, hermeticism and more. 

Phillip demonstrates his deep knowledge of the subject matter and his easy-going disposition in this wonderful conversation.

On this episode of Neon Galactic, science educator David Stuss and I interview analyst and deep thinker Matthew Pines on UAPs, Jacob Barber, the politics of disclosure, the equities of ontological change, and how the evolving power structures of American society are now shifting in strange, powerful new ways.

Matthew is currently the executive director of the BTC Policy, among other roles, and has become an important voice in the UAP/NHI conversation. 

Our chat starts with the current moment in the UAP issue, and Matt’s recent engagement with Barber’s Skywatcher group. 

From there, we explore how various factions of government and the private sector are preparing themselves for a new economic geography that may arise post-disclosure, and how society can help ensure that these new discoveries don’t further exacerbate existing inequities.

We dive deep into the philosophical and scientific framework that Matt uses in his own ontological musings, and consider how those ideas can accommodate the various phenomena reported around UAP encounters and psi phenomenon. Matt outlines the Stephen Wolfram model that underpins his thinking and how Jonathon Gorard’s work has led to some further startling but important conclusions. 

We briefly discuss his novel, “Expectation Value,” and how the rise of artificial intelligence and UAPs represent similar challenges. 

To purchase his book:

Given the current information environment online, we review the challenges faced by Barber and his group in pursuing science while under public scrutiny, and how getting the truth out in such a maelstrom can be a significant challenge. 

David Stuss is a science instructor from Camosun College in British Columbia.

On this episode of Neon Galactic, we interview Mona Sobhani, a flipped cognitive neuroscientist and author whose shifting worldview has opened her up to a life of transcendent experience and meaning.

Her book,”Proof of Spiritual Phenomena: A Neuroscientist's Discovery of the Ineffable Mysteries of the Universe,” charts her exploration and journey out of the physical materialist paradigm that came with her work and education.

The journey starts with her own mother’s psychic gift of reading coffee grounds, which had proven its efficacy over and over again throughout Mona’s life.

“After succumbing to the depths of despair during an existential crisis, I climbed out of the grave I had dug for my hope, wiped my hands clean of the dirt of depression, and started on my way to uncover the answers to the ineffable mysteries of the universe that I had encountered in the darkness,” she writes in her online bio, which describes how she decided to “pull the lynch pin of consciousness and find myself at the crossroads of science and spirituality.”

In this conversation, we discuss her personal experiences, her practices as a seeker and contemplative, and the in-depth research she conducted, at first for her own edification and later as the research for her book.

“I want to live in a world where kindness is king – where humans can reclaim the word humanity and deserve it, “ her bio reads. “My heart longs for a world where humans see themselves as part of a vast, interconnected network that includes nature (not as separate from it) … . Let's create a world where we don't have to strive for justice and equality – where it already is just and equal. I want to see the doors of perception blown wide open.”

On this episode of Neon Galactic, we get straight to the heart of what all the anomalous human experiences we’ve covered on this show are trying to tell us. This is a culmination.

Author, thinker, healer Paul Levy joins us to discuss his recently re-issued book, The Quantum Revelation, and how it reveals that science over the past 120 years has failed to take seriously the transformative discoveries made during the quantum revolution. 

While many have bent over backwards and contorted themselves in the intervening years to dress up quantum physics as just a way to make experimental results match predictions, and damn the ontological ramifications, Levy in this book corrals a daunting list of quotes from those early, intrepid quantum explorers who knew full well they were rediscovering the universe.

By taking the quantum seriously, we’re faced with a universe that is transcendent, mysterious, mind-like, and unified. These discoveries hearken back to and confirm some of the most ancient mystical human traditions, revealing that humanity has long had the keys to these truths in hand. We’ve just never had the heart to take them seriously.

In the modern era, we’ve clung desperately to a damned worldview, physicalist materialism, in spite of the mountains of evidence that have emerged to topple that program.  

Levy here describes how how we dream up the universe, and thereby engage, determines everything about who we are and where we’re going.

On this episode on Neon Galactic, I’m joined by two long-time ufologists, two major figures in the New Paradigm institute, Birdie Jaworski and Jim Garrison.

We discuss this fraught moment in the UAP field – how the change in national leadership presents new and extremely complex challenges to people’s ability to engage in the topic, and their willingness to believe the narratives now being generated. 

With the recent emergence of whistleblower Jake Barber, the conversation has shifted, Jaworski and Garrison point out, away from the long-running national security framing to one of consciousness and human potential. 

We discuss Barber’s encounter with a transcendent feminine presence and how that relates to the new Trump Administration, which embodies an oppositional, overtly masculine and destructive energy.

These two elements represent the polarities of human consciousness, and the process of synthesis now underway has the potential to fuel transformative growth. It is a painful yet necessary step for humans to unlock their deeper potentials and emerge from this catastrophe with newly forged strength. 

Ubiquity University, along with TransDimensional Mapping, Jake Barber, Richard Dolan, Ross Coulthart and Chris Bledso are putting on a free event on Feb. 23: Psionics Summit: Exploring the Psi, Plasma-Orb, NHI Connection.

On this episode, I’m joined by former U.S. counterintelligence officer Luis Elizondo for the first half of a two-part interview.

Elizondo has been a formative and important figure in the ongoing movement for UAP disclosure. In 2017, after resigning from the U.S. Department of Defense, he’s conducted an eventful and sometimes controversial campaign to help push UAPs and NHI into public awareness. 

Over the past several years, he’s done countless interviews, appeared in numerous documentaries, written the best-selling book, “Imminent,” and testified under oath in front of Congress. 

We discuss the recent revelations of Jake Barber, an elite former black program operator and helicopter pilot who, over the course of several recent interviews, revealed that the US government and its private industry partners has long been aware of the reality of UFOs, and has deployed “psionic” assets to pilot them onto a military testing range and ultimately bring them down. 

Lue vouches for Barber’s bona fides, indicating that people within government confirm much of what barber claims about his knowledge and experience. 

Lue also seems to caution against accepting Barber’s personal experiences as definitive around his encounter with a transcendent feminine energy.

We discuss the nature of psionic capacities, and how reality must work to accommodate such phenomena.

Is consciousness a fundamental part of the universe? 

We also dive into Lue’s repeated statement that humanity has to accept no longer being the top of the food chain, and what that means in terms of possible predation and exploitation. 

We’re just getting started in this conversation. Part II of this interview is scheduled for later this week, when we’ll explore the ethics of psionic recruitment, the politics of the moment, how sweeping changes in the executive branch may or may not impact disclosure, experiencer Chris Bledsoe’s recent claim that Jesus Christ is scheduled for a landing some time in May 2026, and whether knocking UAPs down with tech or psychic sabotage is a smart thing to do. 

We’ll also discuss the UAP Disclosure Fund, how regular citizens can help make change, and the best way for people to get prepared for an era when seemingly dangerous secrets have been revealed.

Everyone says the UFO/UAP/NHI topic is targeted with misinformation and sabotage, yet few produce proof. Few have tracked the assault. Our guest today has helped manage a subreddit and has seen these attacks first hand. 

On this episode of Neon Galactic, Charles aka “MantisAwakening” from the r/Experiencers subreddit joins us to talk about his encounters with the anomalous, his co-founding of the experiencer forum, and his discovery of bad actors working both sides to derail the contact conversation. 

Charles describes his early childhood encounter with a giant grasshopper, a so-called mantis being, and how that kicked off a life of strange incidents, emerging psychical abilities, and related research.

The forum he helps run has become one of the most important places on the Internet for experiencers to gather, share their stories, get support, and be real.

The rules prohibit debunking of any kind, so redditors can be vulnerable and tell their stories without fear of ridicule and consequence.

Charles describes how the system works and what the role of moderator actually looks like from the inside.

We also discuss the evidence he’s found for manipulations from bots and other bad actors who seem bent on fanning the flames of conflict, posting as both hard-core and abusive skeptics, and also as credulous fringe thinkers who peddle extreme stories.

By flooding the zone with radical voices, fomenting conflict, and increasing the chaos of the conversation, these influencers actively discourage casual interest from those just getting involved in the discussion.
