  • Peter Robbins | Wilhelm Reich, Orgone Energy, & UFOs

    Join The Higherside Chats podcast as Greg Carlwood hosts Peter Robbins to discuss the life and work of Wilhelm Reich.


    Known for his brilliant mind, Reich's work wondered into areas such as unknown energies, weather modification, and UFOs, ultimately devolving into a fascinating tale of establishment attacks, character assassination, historical marginalization and an unfortunate untimely death.
    As an amazing UFO and abduction researcher, Robbins has spent the last 30 years familiarizing himself with the research of Reich. He has gone on to author and co-author several books including "Halt In Woodbridge: An Airforce Colonel's Thirty Year Fight To Silence An Authentic UFO Whistle-Blower".
    2:30 Greg and Peter begin by discussing Reich's background and, as an expert in the life and work of Wilhelm Reich, Peter validates his credibility by elaborating on exactly how he found Reich's work and where he began over 30 years ago. After first reading Reich's, "Character Analysis", Robbin's knew he had discovered the work of someone special. The science Reich had created, known as Orgonomy, is a hybrid between the words organism and orgasm. Orgonomy, whose operating functioning principle is how energy functions in the living and non-living realms, became a major focus of Robbins' studies. The study of energy sweeps through many sub-sects of science; similarly Orgonomists, or medical physicians that became psychiatrists and completed training in the Reichian method, have a cornucopia of education.

    7:30 As Peter explains, despite Reich's success, with eyewitnesses observing firsthand his weather modification and the fact that Orgonomy itself has several useful applications, the groundbreaking level of research Reich was conducting was perhaps too ahead of its time. With some of his key findings challenging social and moral underpinnings of society, as well as accepted physical laws of the universe, Reich was demonized and painted as a quack.

    10:30 After serving in WWI and graduating medical school, Reich became not only a pupil of Sigmund Freud but also worked as his primary first assistant over the course of six years. Unfortunately, they parted ways in 1929 after Reich approached Freud with his hypothesis that all human neuroses, even the deepest forms, is rooted in some kind of sexual dysfunction. Although Freud had become infamous for his pioneering research of such topics, Reich's absolute assertion that all neuroses are a result of sexual dysfunction was a hypothesis too extreme for Freud. As a result,

  • Brian Tuohy | Sports Conspiracies & Game-fixing
    Join Greg Carlwood of The Higherside Chats as he talks gambling, game-fixing and sports conspiracy with guest, Brian Tuohy aka "The King of Sports Conspiracies"
    Brian joins us to help shatter some of the illusions of the sanctimonious sports industry with the information he's presented in several books he's written about corruption, set ups, game-fixing, illegal gambling, wealth extraction and conspiracy theories in sports.
    2:42 To kick things off, Greg and Brian discuss how he got started in such an interesting niche. As Tuohy explains, outside of America, the topic of sports corruption through game-fixing and gambling has been a long reported on the topic. On the other hand, in the US, the notion of game-fixing is considered an off-limits topic for sports media. This void in media coverage, Brian explains, can be accounted for when one researches the codependent relationship between sports media and professional sport's leagues. Adding fuel to the fire, Greg and Brian discuss the nefarious filled roster of heavy hitters in the sport's broadcasting realm including ABC, NBC, and FOX.
    6:45 Continuing to discuss this theme that sports should be considered nothing more than entertainment, Greg and Brian discuss one of the most damning examples: the Spygate lawsuit. After the New England Patriots were caught cheating by videotaping their opponents, a class action lawsuit was filed by a New York Jet's fan that was also a lawyer. After going to the 3rd Circuit Court of Appeals, the ultimate ruling claimed that when someone purchases a ticket, they are essentially purchasing a license to enter an area and watch and event. This ruling made clear that teams and leagues are not required to abide by any rules when providing the game and fans can't sue because they're dissatisfied with what they saw, really solidifying the point that this is for entertainment purposes only.

    15:30 Greg and Brian continue to discuss the structure of the NFL and the red flags of the current financial landscape. With the NFL operating as one giant conglomerate, distributing it's profits among all teams, the motive to win is eliminated. Already operating under the premise of entertainment, leagues are free to create a narrative that engages the largest number of people by using emotionally charged and perfectly crafted sports stories. Evidence of this can be seen in the spectacular season of the Patriots following 9/11, the Superbowl win of the Saints post-Katrina, or even the perfectly primed retirement of Peyton Manning after last year's Superbowl win.

    25:15 After covering a few examples of recent cases including high profile athletes gambling in their respective games, Greg and Brian discuss the

  • Walter Bosley | Breakaway Civilization, The Sonora Aero Club
    Join the Higherside Chats podcast as Greg Carlwood hosts returning guest, Walter Bosley.
    Bosley has upped the ante with his research into a group of Hermetic Prussian Nationalist called NYMZA, artist Charles Dellschau, and a secret society of exotic craft makers in California called the Sonora Aero Club. It's a deep and rich Pandora's box of conspiracy goodness that connects some dots and fills in many gaps- taking the popular idea of a 20th century breakaway civilization and extending the timeline back to it's 19th century beginnings and beyond.


    2:42 Starting at the beginning, this saga suggests that certain people uncovered a lost civilization about secret technologies that might have come from an advanced civilization in the ancient past, or information brought here from another world. So, before diving into it's rediscovering in the 19th century, Greg and Walter establish exactly what there was to rediscover. As Walter explains, in order to fully trace the history of such ancient technologies, one has to go back to the days of Atlantis,the story from the Mahabharata about ancient wars involving the use of such technologies.
     
    7:00 Walter elaborates on exactly how this new technology found its way to Earth. He theorizes, there was a war between two off- planet factions with the losing party eventually finding it's way here, attempting to re-establish a civilization, and colonizing. While inhabiting the planet, they slowly impart their knowledge of these advanced technologies to alchemist and Hermetic societies, with the end goal being that we develop into such an advanced culture, we may one day fight on their behalf against their intergalactic foes.

    15:00 After tracing the saga from Alexandria, we find the six degrees of separation include the Knights Templar, Freemasonry, royal societies, Angelic societies to Prussian nationalists via the Teutonic Knights. With Prussian nationalists throwing the fuel on the fire, Greg and Walter discuss the secret German society NYMZA, their surrogate Charles Dellschau and the connection to the Sonora Aero Club.

    26:00 To put a finer point on the type of technology being used, Greg and Walter discuss the mechanics and science behind what makes these airships fly. As Walter explains, because the only references we have exist in the works of Dellschau and witness reports of the airship mysteries, when researchers take an honest look into the events that happened, the technology depicted by Dellschau is curiously similar to the other had witnessed in the 1890s.  According to Walter,

  • Scott Santens | Universal Basic Income
    Join Greg Carlwood of The Higherside Chats podcast as he talks Universal Basic Income with his guest, Scott Santens.
    An important piece to the conspiracy puzzle is finding solutions to problems long identified. Instead of grandiose ideas of a technocratic utopia and pipe dream paradigms of exotic technologies firmly locked behind the gates of possibility for decades, moderator of the Basic Income community of Reddit, Scott Santens walks us through real, practical solutions we can fight for now.
    Greg and Scott walk through viable options for providing maximum optionality, circumventing the debt based system of rule and breaking the chains of economic slavery using something within our grasp.
    2:24 Greg and Scott begin by helping to define the concept of a Universal Basic Income. Given on an individual level, the basic income is an unconditional, separate and permanent income stream meant to help pay for basic needs of citizens. As Scott explains, to be considered a basic income, the amount must cover the essentials, and usually hovers near the poverty line.

    6:45 Addressing one of the most prominent criticisms, Greg and Scott help set the record straight about the "welfare for all" myth. Scott elaborates on the concept that under our current system, welfare pays people to do nothing, but basic income would pay people to do anything. With poverty cliffs disincentivizing people to work and fear they may have to forfeit their benefits, Scott explains how Finland is using the basic income model to grow the job markets.

    14:20 While some may still have a hard time conceptualizing the finer details associated with the basic income, the great white state Alaska, serves as a case study after having implemented a similar system for residents. Since 1982, residents have been receiving dividend payments from a state-controlled investment fund. As Scott points out, Alaska has been able to turn a non-renewable resource into a permanent, renewable source of income, securing it's post as a leader among states with residents with the highest well-being, the lowest overall poverty levels, and lowest wealth inequality.
