Sonic Gravity

Enter my mind, and see what I see when I consider discrimination against American Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, and Queer (LGBTQ) people. In this episode, I examine the "faith based" underpinnings of LGBTQ discrimination, Biblical myths used by Christians to judge and look down on LGBTQ people, and ask the question:  since we know LGBTQ people occupy some of the greatest positions...

Enter my mind and see what I see. When people do us wrong, what do we do?   It's a certainty that people will hurt us and do wrong by us; we can't stop that hurt from coming, but we can stop it from staying with us and polluting our lives. And when we allow someone who hurt us, to poison our lives, we know from the Physics of Leadership, that we are changing everyone in our orbit--and if...

Thank you. It's hard to express how grateful I am that so many people listen to Sonic Gravity and from all over the world.   Thank you for sharing it and thank you for listening.  I know you are always in my gravity.  In this episode, I want to make sure that you know that I am in yours, and you are changing me. Our tribe streams from:  Spain, Netherlands, Mexico, Malaysia, Kenya, Jordan, Isr...

Controlling Destiny:  is it something we do, or is it a thing under which we live? In this episode, we explore the paradox of destiny, reconcile mutual coexistence between the theory of free will and destiny, and reveal the possibility that we are in thrall to a universal illusion of choice. 

Enter my mind and see what I see, walking out of the light and into the Darkness.  Come with me through the Valley of Shadow, like the Prodigal Son, following a Godless secular path, and through Grace and Mercy that surpasses human understanding, look up with me and see we are standing in the shade of the Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil, and that God brought us, like stumbling children, back ho...

In this episode, you will enter my mind and see abortion through the eyes of a madman. And if you spend an hour in my sonic gravity, you will see how, in the abortion context, conservatives abandon their values of limited government to legislate from inside the womb, and liberal vegans who eat plants in the name of a cow's right to live, abandon their respect for human life, and in the name o...

What does the COVID-19 toilet paper shortage, the January 6, 2021 assault on the capitol and Walmart HR policy have in common?  Yep: The Tragedy of the Commons. In this episode, I invite you into my mind, and you will see that fear causes our fears to become our reality in fact.   You will see how the richest corporations tax the people and have created an American Shadow Oligarchy, and that conse...

Kids don't come with an owner's manual. We daddys kind of figure things out on the fly--like building a plane in flight.  But there are some things we can probably all agree on.  It's our role, and the way we father our kids either leads them to greatness, or down the drain, or somewhere in between. And we'll always be fathers, but we'll only have this golden opportunity t...

In this episode, we unravel the mystery of tornado formation that has baffled the scientific community for 138 years. The podcast cover shows a temperature inversion:  a layer of heavy dry dense cold air crushing down on a layer of yellow, warm, high pressure, wet air.  In this episode, we know what we know about basic chemistry and physics, to discover that tornados are not updrafts of warm air a...

Foreshadowed by Critical Thinking Part 1:  Know Thyself, Critical Thinking Part 2, explores the symbiotic relationship between Inductive Reasoning and Deductive Reasoning in a way that only quantum physics can illustrate.    Using the quasi-Inductive, quasi-Deductive critical thinking method, we explore how critical thinkers knew how severe the COVID-19 pandemic would become as early as mid-late J...

I think everyone agrees that, in a vaccine-scarce environment, it's critical to vaccinate our First Responders and Medical Staff first. But, whoever decided that the rest of the population should be lined up by age with the people closest to dying from old age at the head of the line, and our youngest children at the back, is someone with whom I disagree. Why are grocery workers and other pub...

Maybe you believe in God or maybe you don't.   Whether you do or not, you've probably heard about the debate.  I'm talking about the debate where the people who don't believe in God try to convince the people who do, to abandon their faith and put their trust in science.  At the same time, the people who do believe in God, try to convince those who don't, to abandon their...

Whether we want a job in construction, or in big business, or at a law firm--whether it is an entry level, intermediate level, or senior executive level, there one constant:  that someone will make the hiring decision and that the Physics of Leadership determines the outcome. That hiring manager will decide whether or not they see it in their own best interest to hire us based on how we make them...

What would it take to eradicate American poverty in a generation or less . . . or in a decade or less? I think I figured it out yesterday.  You be the judge. Enter my mind and witness how a montage of scattered experiences and empirical observations over the last 25 years,  spontaneously fused in my mind, bound together by the Physics of Leadership, crystalizing the architecture of a 21st Century...

In this episode, Socrates and I teach the meaning of critical thought and its central logical foundation:  "Know Thyself" We explore the meaning of "Know Thyself," its application, and examples of critical thought in our quest to experience and re-experience true illumination.  This episode also includes a brief primer on critical thought through inductive and deductive reasoni...

COVID-19 has, as of November 2020, claimed the lives of a quarter million Americans and left their families in terrible pain.   There isn't much I can do for the people who are gone, but for those who remain and those who have or may find themselves among the bereaved, I invite you into my mind. This episode explores the connection between the human spirit and the most powerful celestial bodi...

If you've seen combat service in the military, been a first responder, are vulnerable or experienced abuse in your home or community, experienced sexual abuse, abusive relationships, are food insecure, lost your job, or are being beaten by someone at home or when you were a kid, or if you've ever been shot at . . . there's a good chance you have it--even if you think you don't....

Certain immutable natural laws are constant throughout the universe; these laws govern every single aspect of our existence--and that is a fact.  There is either order, or there must be none. So too, is there must be a physics to leadership.  It is the only reason a leadership action can achieve a repeatable, predictable leadership result.  If not for the Physics of Leadership, all leader action w...

I invite you to spend eight minutes and twenty-five seconds inside my mind.   Consider me an "Objectivist," whose favorite hobby is observing the universe to share my perception.  I didn't create this podcast to advance an agenda or make a point.  My podcast is unconcerned with tedious politics or any of the social cages people build for themselves. But I will share my observations...
