  • S1E9 -Unearthing Cannabis

    Cannabis is more than just THC and CBD. Today Ryan Heath, owner of Shady Oak Hemp Farm, returns to dispel the many misconceptions that still surround cannabis today, despite the growing trend toward legalization and recent move to the UN’s Schedule II drug list. Ryan begins by breaking down the difference between CBD and THC, the painstakingly detailed process of farming cannabis, and the experience of smoking versus ingesting. He talks about narrowing down why you are using marijuana (pain relief, panic attacks, winding down), so that you can choose the best strain to meet your needs and optimize your experience, and answers questions about the effectiveness of recent topical CBD creams.

    Ryan chats with Chris and Vanessa about the versatility of cannabis, its rejuvenating effect on soil, and why it is a true art form. They end with an informative conversation about issues with dosing, the importance of quality over quantity in the cannabis game, and exciting new strains of cannabinoids to come. Today’s episode is sure to leave you with a better understanding of the process, purpose, and power of the cannabis plant in general. Thanks for tuning in.
     
    The Finer Details of This Episode:

    • Ryan’s experience growing, trimming, laboring, consuming cannabis
    • Trend toward legalizing marijuana and amending it to Schedule II drug list
    • CBD (cannabidiol) and THC (tetrahydrocannabinol) are the most common cannabinoids found in cannabis products
    • THC is the main substance that people think of when they think of getting stoned
    • CBD doesn't cause that high, but instead works with other elements in the body to bring wellbeing and balance
    • Misconceptions about CBD - how it works, what it does, and the many different ailments it can help with
    • Hemp oil does not have any CBD in it
    • Incredible amount of work that goes into farming cannabis - everything is done by hand
    • Smoking versus ingesting
    • Pro tip to swish tincture (liquid cannabis) in your mouth for better absorption
    • Narrowing down what you are using the product for 
    • Indica is generally best for pain relief
    • Topical CBD creams are transdermal, similar to a nicotine patch
    • Creams are marketed for pain relief, but research is lacking on whether it’s actually anti-inflammatory
    • Cannabis is not stronger today - it’s just being grown better and to its full potential
    • It is also a full-use crop, where no part is thrown away
    • Also rejuvenates and replenishes the soil
    • Quality over quantity in the cannabis game
    • Ryan recently had his hemp made into oil using Good Land Extracts 
    • Ryan chose which strains to grow based on harvest schedules
    • CBG is a new strain of cannabinoid, as well as THCV (appetite suppressant) and THCZ (helpful for diabetics)

      • Quotes:

      “THC is the one that’s intoxicating, that’s the one that gets you the high effect. That’s the one that most people would say is fun.”
      “CBD is calming, but there’s no market value there.”
      “We planted about 15,000 single plants. And each one came down by hand, and hauled in by hand, and hung up by hand, and each bud taken off by hand.”
      “It’s such a delicate plant that you can’t mess with it too much.”
      “To a horticulturist, they’re just - they’re kind of like a wet dream.”
      “Once it’s out of the field, you’re only about halfway there… You’ve got to get every single little bud off each plant.”
      “When you’re inhaling through your lungs, all those cannabinoids hit your bloodstream instantly - the minute it hits your lungs.”
      “Indicas are generally known for pain relief.”
      “People don’t know that, Hey, you can actually smoke CBD and that might be a better way of getting it in you.”
      “THC is a much more powerful cannabinoid than CBD.”
      “[Cannabis] is not stronger. We’re just letting it grow to its full potential now.”
      “The reality is, this plant is a damn piece of art. It can do so many things.”
      “It literally pulls the bad stuff out of the soil, and doesn’t put it into the flower somehow. It just sticks it in the stock. So none of that negative stuff gets into the consumable product. It makes the land better.”
      “Hemp is unlike any crop. Quantity does not necessarily mean profit. Quality means profit… Quality is number one in the cannabis game.”
      “To make any sort of good cannabis, lots of positive energy has to go into that. If it’s not put in there, it’s a bad product and it’s just not going to work as well.”

      Eschatologist and author, Cheri Potter, continues her riveting conversation with Chris and Vanessa on today’s episode. They come back to Egypt, the role hieroglyphics play in depicting the system, and the hidden information Cheri has uncovered in her in-depth research. She reveals what the pyramids were originally designed for, the mind-blowing revelation that gold was produced out of granite, and the true meaning behind the wings of the 33rd rank in Masons (it’s definitely not “Time Flies”).

        • Quotes:

        “I have studied [hieroglyphics] in depth, and I do see the conceptual charts of time in closed off landmarks that they don't really open to the public. I've seen the wings. So obviously this information has been hidden for thousands of years.” 
        “It’s so obvious when you put the whole story together. It’s so simple.”
        “The pyramids were designed so that the children of the Pharaoh would all be taken to the pyramids... and each one had a different god over them, like a different fallen angel.”
        “They would stay and they would worship in that temple and they would work in that temple.”
        “So the great pyramid in Egypt was designed for producing gold in the process of Alchemy.”
        “They would put the rock in the granite and the iron and the black rock would exchange properties once the lid was sealed in the heat... Then they would take the gold out of granite, out of the big granite stone.”
        “They’re playing God, and they disrupt the system that's designed to naturally heal itself, just like our bodies.”
        “The hour glass and the wings actually used to mean that they had the power of teleportation.”
        “Webster was a great Mason and he knew some of the secrets.” 
        “A lot of people who are scholars or geniuses, they don't accept God because it seems almost like a fairy tale, like, Oh, Santa’s coming. This makes them step back and say, Wait a minute, if it's all recorded in the word of God, I better take a second look and maybe reconfirm my belief system.”
        “Somebody needs to feed the sheep in order to keep them alive because they're dropping like flies.”
        “If we could bring the truth back to the Church, then the Church could see them, and they wouldn't go elsewhere, because there's no greater power than this, because God created all things. He knows how the system works.”
        “You know it’s not you. You've experienced this [feeling] before… You know it's not of this earth because it's so powerful, but not overwhelming. It’s so comforting.”
        “The definition of the Holy Spirit is undoubtable.”
        “When you feel that, you just want to sit in it, you just want to be with it. You just want to sit in it because it feels so good and you want more.”
        “The medical field is just medicating people. Nobody is getting healed.”
        “Man has no power except as God gives it. God gives us the wisdom of how to use the power through the Holy Spirit.”
        “I would just love to set this world on fire for the Holy spirit.”
        “Everyone invests in their future for retirement, but nobody invests in their salvation for all eternity.”
        “Here’s to getting unstuck.”

      • S1E7 -Tables of the Covenant with Cheri Potter Part 1

        Chris and Vanessa welcome a very special guest to the podcast today, eschatologist and author, Cheri Potter. As an eschatologist, Cheri calculates the true understanding of different languages and how they translate to study end time events. To date, she has produced books regarding revelation theories about the end time, and today she unveils some astounding information from her latest project detailing the Tables of the Covenant.

         
        She begins by explaining how her journey led her to this work, the codes found in the Bible with which she works, popular confusion regarding such concepts as the Ark of the Covenant, and issues with organized religion. Along with our hosts, she then enlightens listeners about such topics as demonic forces, powers of the Spirit, God’s system, and the famine that she sees in the world today. Cheri also discusses her books, the existence of daytime and nighttime powers and evidence of their use throughout history, the difference between serving and obeying God, and the wondrous nature of growing in understanding from the Holy Spirit. Cheri’s passion for, and thorough knowledge of, her area of study shines through brilliantly in this episode and, thankfully, continues on in the next episode of ‘Out of the Common’.

          “My dad was definitely touched by the Spirit that I needed this.”
           
          “Because if you have any other Bible than the King James Bible, it has been translated from the Bible to Greek and then into another language.”
           
          “It's lost in translation.”
           
          “So I calculated, I wrote down and recorded page by page and verse by verse all the little codes, and it actually spelled in ancient Hebrew, ‘the right to passage’.”
           
          “So the actual Ark of the Covenant was the arc measurement of tables, which were mathematical formulas, a covenant of the perpetual physics of God's law of creation.”
           
          “Anything that isn’t God, the demons can collect.”
           
          “We’re losing that hand of God over us, that protection, because the more you're in confusion, the more you're straying from the truth, and you're falling into the lines of the spirits of devils.”
           
          “If you want to hear the true word of God, go down to the Potter's house.”
           
          “This isn't for everybody, and there's a lot of people in dark places that have been trying to pry it out of your hands forever.”
           
          “So the powers include, like, teleportation, spontaneous movements, and invisibility.”
           
          “All of it is completely backed by scripture. There's nothing that you're making up.”
           
          “They don't want any of us to know that there's a Creator.”
           
          “There's daytime powers and there's nighttime powers, and, of course, the daytime powers are of God and the nighttime powers are of Satan.”
           
          “And man doesn't serve God because God is all powerful…it's just, He requires obedience.”
           
          “Anybody who continues to get more understanding spiritually or from the Holy Spirit, it is the coolest thing ever.”

        • S1E6 -The Role of Psychedelics in Healing

          The role of psychedelics in society has been taboo since the beginning of organized religion, with a hard hitting propaganda campaign ever since. Today Chris and Vanessa are joined by Ryan Heath, owner of Shady Oak Hemp Farm, to explore the therapeutic role psychedelics can actually play in healing. Ryan is a fantastic individual with an amazing green thumb and a wide range of hallucinogenic experiences. He begins by breaking down how long human beings have been using psychedelics to try to reach a higher power, how they can be used to see things from a different perspective versus escaping reality altogether with alcohol or opioids, and the role organized religion has played in demonizing psychedelics. Ryan talks with our hosts about knowing your intentions going into a psychedelic experience, the movement toward legalizing Psilocybin mushrooms for medicinal purposes and resistance from pharmaceutical companies, as well as his sustainable hemp farm. You’ll also hear about the role hallucinogens played in Vanessa’s own healing journey, and Chris discusses the importance of having a calm guide with you through a psychedelic experience.

          Civilizations have used psychedelics for thousands of years. They can be used to forge new neural pathways and reprogram negative brainwashing you may have been exposed to over the years. Today’s conversation highlights the importance of taking a step back to renew your mind, and how expanding your consciousness with psychedelics can give you the perspective you need to cure yourself of unhealthy habits and beliefs. 
           
          The Finer Details of This Episode:

          • How long human beings have been using psychedelics and the reasoning behind it
          • The expansion of consciousness and how it opens up your mind
          • Dr. Rick Strassman and the Spirit Molecule - his study showed that DMT helped people experience what they needed to, not what they wanted to
          • The danger of lumping all bad drugs together
          • Are you trying to escape reality or try to see things from a different perspective?
          • The ceremonial origins of psychedelics and how they started to become taboo with the emergence of organized religion
          • Psychedelics can be used to forge new neural pathways and connections, and reprogram negative thoughts, patterns, affirmations to more positive habits
          • Lack of clinical research and education on using psychedelics safely and the amazing experience it can yield - it’s mostly based on anecdotal experiences
          • Psychedelics are not addictive by nature
          • The movement toward legalizing Psilocybin mushrooms and resistance from pharmaceutical companies 
          • War on Psychedelics, and Cannabis still being categorized as Schedule I drug
          • Ryan’s sustainable Shady Oak Hemp Farm
          • Indica versus Sativa, and Ryan’s favorite strain this year, Ingrid
          • Vanessa’s experience with Iowaska on her own healing journey
          • Hallucinogens will not cure your problems - they will put you in a mindset to cure yourself
          • Ego Death and the importance of stepping back for a reset
          • Defining happiness for yourself instead of letting others do it for you
          • Having a calm guide with you through a hallucinogenic experience
          • How Ryan started his journey with psychedelics
          • 5-MeO-DMT 
          • Getting back to a childlike state - being vulnerable with zero ego so you can repair what you’ve been brainwashed to believe 
          • Renewal of the mind

            • Quotes:

            “Pre-societal times, when humans were basically nomadic and tribal, being that there was not one broad organized base of spiritual thinking, they all used different ways of trying to reach a higher power. Be it psychedelics, be it meditation, be it sweat lodges. They were all just different kinds of ways of trying to figure out what this world was about, because to this day we still don’t really know.”
            “That kind of goes along with the idea of how wrong it is to just lump bad drugs all together.”
            “Are you trying to escape reality? That’s like your general heavily addictive substances, where you’re trying to just shut reality out. Opioids, heroin...even alcohol, really.”
            “By organizing, that big group took over and cast all the pagans aside and said, Hey, no, no, that’s weird, that’s wrong, that’s demonistic. But it was really just based on, they didn’t understand the reasoning for what they were doing it for.”
            “That’s exactly why they abandoned it. They tested it. They’re like, People will go crazy and we can control their minds. But it didn’t work out that way. In fact, their minds got less controllable.”
            “Because they’re so powerful, if you aren’t in that positive mindset, it can go really bad really quickly.”
            “It’s not necessarily what you want, but it’s what you need at the time to figure out and click in your brain.”
            “Even a challenging experience with psychedelics can be, and usually is, very positive.”
            “The whole point is to come back to reality to help you see reality from a different perspective. That’s what people are excited to do. They don’t want to stay in that ‘trip mode’. They want to use that to bring them back.”
            “That’s why we’re starting to see a large amount of support for decriminalizing Psilocybin from mushrooms for psychiatric use.”
            “You can’t patent anything that’s natural.”
            “We consume a lot of drugs compared to the rest of the world… We are one of the few countries in the world that has such a meth problem. Most of Europe doesn’t have a meth problem.”
            “I’m all about the Indica. If you don’t know, a very easy one is, Indica - in da couch. Sativa, think of sunshine.”
            “The Iowaska didn’t fix any of your stuff. It fixed your mindset.”
            “That’s what I think is hard for some people to get their mind around, is that no LSD is going to cure this. Iowaska isn’t going to cure this. It’s going to put you in a mindset to help you cure
            yourself.”
            “The longer and longer we tell ourselves, We’re amazing. We’re the shit, the more that ego gets in the way of actually seeing what’s really going on.”
            “So it only takes two months to brainwash people or make them think something. And then once they think that, it won’t shift no matter what you do.”
            “I have this idea of reverting back to your childlike state. Again, zero ego, joy, vulnerable. And that is something I think, as adults, we need to take responsibility and do that more often.”
            “You are just having fun without a substance, versus alcohol - you need it. It only works
            for about four hours, so you need to keep taking it. Whereas a psychedelic will give you like six months to a year.”

          • S1E4 -Everything is Energy

            Buckle up listeners! In today’s episode, Vanessa and Chris are going to challenge you to do no less than change the way you look at yourself, the world around you, and, indeed, the entire universe. Drawing upon their vast wealth of knowledge, experience, and wisdom, our hosts lay out the case for looking at life through energy, frequency, and vibration, and the impact this perspective will have upon your life. Sit back, listen in, and prepare to have your mind blown and your horizons greatly expanded here today.

             
            Essentially, the entire episode is about the notion that everything comes down to energy, frequency, and vibration in our lives and our world, and, along the way, our hosts share the research and researchers, resources, and experiences that support this theory. The Schumann Resonance, the work of Royal Rife and Tesla, beneficial and detrimental frequencies, and the concepts of concordance and dissonance are explored. They also explain homochords, PEMF, Solfeggio tones, and highlight the energy of the Bible. As Chris and Vanessa make clear, there is much that is known about our world, and so much more that is yet to be discovered. Today’s conversation clarifies some of that fascinating information that will open up a vast array of possibilities in your life, and which will undoubtedly change the way you see the world forever.

            Are you ready for a change from all the madness that COVID has generated over the past year? Having witnessed the shift that has occurred in the lives of so many during this pandemic, Vanessa and Chris are certainly ready to change things up. In today’s episode they address the fear that is the root of the dissonance spreading through society and offer their advice for turning this tide so that we can stop the absurdity and start building community with others again.

If the weight of all the negativity surrounding COVID is overwhelming you, Chris and Vanessa are here to assure you that you are not alone, and to offer you their valuable insights into how we can all ‘shatter this madness’.

          • S1E2 -Gold, God, and Spiritual Warfare

            This week’s episode presents yet another profound example of the power and presence of God in our lives. Chris goes solo today as he shares the story of his journey of ultimate faith and absolute insanity surrounding his mining adventures in Mexico. While he has only shared this story in its entirety to a couple of people in the past, today he opens up to you, the listener, as part of his mission to encourage us all to strengthen our faith and allow God to lead us on the path He has chosen for us.

             
            Recounting the tale of his mining experiences in Mexico from when they started 9½ years ago up to the present day, Chris touches upon the practice of dowsing, how his opportunity was taken from him and what he did about it, and his intense study of scripture. He also reviews the many, many signs that demonstrated to him that spiritual forces were involved in these adventures, how his faith was tested, the evolution of his relationship with God, and the need to persevere along the path God chooses for you despite the challenges encountered. He finishes by sharing the amazing new opportunities that are now before him, and offering a reminder for us all to ‘let God take the reins’ – a lesson which he learned through being ‘thrown in the fire’, and one which he will never forget.
