The Deep State Consciousness Podcast

I am therefore suggesting a kind of philosophising about conspiracy theory. Taking the ideas seriously—if not always literally—and respecting their proponents enough to not write them off with cheap psychological dismissals.

‘Introduce a little anarchy, upset the established order, and everything becomes chaos. I'm an agent of chaos.’ - The Joker

Welcome to this series of articles exploring the philosophy of anarchism; and, as the title suggests, boiling it down to its very essence. Does anarchy imply chaos and disorder? Or does it in fact lead to a far greater state of societal harmony than we currently experience? These are the questions we’ll be getting into.

Marci Peterson has a fascinating story of overcoming trauma through a psycho-spiritual journey ultimately involving a near death experience. Throughout her life, Marci has had profound encounters with a non-human intelligence, presenting itself as alien beings, who have acted as teachers for her.

In this interview I ask Marci all sorts of questions in an attempt to understand better this strangest of human experiences. We consider everything from a very literal interpretation, to a symbolic/mythic one, as well as questioning the reliability of hypnosis and memory.

Marci has a book coming out next year titled: Believe - There's More

'What the hell does 9/11 have to do with deep spirituality?' That's the question Alex Tsakiris posed at the end of our conversation on the Skeptiko podcast. Taking up the challenge is today's guest, Daniel Luxton, who contacted me with his answer. You wouldn't guess, but it has a lot to do with the Back to the Future films. In this interview Daniel talks about the myth and meaning of these wonderful films and whether they really predicted future events.

Intrigued...

Adam Fitzgerald and I have concluded our Roads to 9/11 series on this channel and Adam has started a new channel dedicated solely to 9/11 studies - on which I am assisting.

This is a clip from the opening episode, where Adam asks me how I became interested 9/11 myself. I talk about my loss of faith in the establishment, interest in imperialism, 9/11 conspiracy theory and how studying philosophy helped me navigate these choppy waters.

Elaine Thorpe is a trance medium who channels the spirit of Jonathan Hunter, a Victorian gentleman who lived from 1845-91. In this interview I ask Elaine about her journey to become a medium. Elaine then goes into trance and I speak directly to Jonathan, asking him about both his life in 19th century London as well as his existence now.

Kristy Johnsson is a somatic therapist specialising in climate related anxiety. In today’s interview I’ll be asking her about her work, whilst relating some of my own struggles with despairing visions of the future.

Kristy has also done work in environmental anthropology and is herself deeply concerned about climate change. I’m not. Whilst I don’t consider my position to be an extreme one, it’s certainly raise eyebrows, dropped jaws and earned me the label of ‘denier’ in the past.

Kristy and I attempt a conversation where we explore how we arrived at our contrasting opinions. The aim is to understand rather than argue, and to see if there’s some common ground to be found in there somewhere. We’re doing this as an antidote to what is so often a hostile and unproductive area of discussion.

In this second part Adam continues the story of the Hamburg Cell, as well as explaining Saudi and Israeli state involvement in the attacks.

Fiona Robertson returns to the podcast to talk about her latest book, The Dark Night of the Soul. Fiona is referring to the archetypal experience of entering a period of darkness and despair during a process of spiritual awakening. We talk about our own dark nights our emergence from them back into the light and how we've come to relate to the traditionally more troubling aspect of our psyches. For me this interview was one of the most personally insightful ones I've recorded provoking self-reflection whilst it was still in progress.
