A chat with my cousin, Jonah Nelson. He has done some research to try to uncover some history about our Aunt Alice, a/k/a Andre Norton, a/k/a Andrew North. She was a fairly popular fiction/fantasy writer of some well known novels, such as her Witch World series and The Beast Master. We also talk about some spooky spiritual experiences and a few other things. We had tried to record the video on our...

My good friend Craig Fay takes me on another mind journey down some trail of interesting ideas. We talk about George MacDonald's book Phantastes, Fox and the Hound, Don Bluth Movies, Scapegoating and Forgiveness, Rejection and Judgement. Somehow it all seemed to connect. Enjoy! youtube link: https://youtu.be/8uVaY3T37Bk

Got to speak again with my friend Mitchell Capps! It has been hard to find a common time to have a conversation because of our current time difference. Mitch and his wife moved to the Canaries almost a year ago and have been helping and serving and learning in that community. youtube link: https://youtu.be/q0xqLKg4ArQ

Mudhut artist, Emilee VerDuin, has been creating amazing work, some of it based around biblical stories. We try to base this conversation around the comparison between psychedelic and fasting experiences, attempting to compare and contrast, along with dabbling into other forms of altered states of consciousness.

A conversation with my sister Natalie. It begins with a very intelligent discussion about peanut butter, then moves into the concepts of the masculine and feminine, and how they scale up and scale down.

"I don't know anything about centaurs..."

Craig and I talk about a lot here. In the early part of the conversation we mention promised land type stories. Then we touch on the aspect of writing, character archetypes and value structures, and how they play out in stories, and different movies we make an attempt to find them in. Then I question Craig about physics. He mentions how the world can be ordered or discovered out by geometrical pat...

I got a chance to talk to a long-time and great friend, Michael. We originally planned on talking about dreams only, but we had not spoken over the phone in a very long time so the conversation is a little bit scattered and nonsensical, as we were just having fun catching up. The first hour is mostly about movies and other things, but eventually we get around to the topic of dreams and share some...
