Podcast: The UFO Rabbit Hole Podcast
Published On: Thu Mar 09 2023
Description: In many ways, our trip down the rabbit hole has been leading us, inevitably, to this episode. It’s in this episode that we reach a decisive inflection point. Nothing will be the same after this—maybe not even you.Over the previous 18 episodes, I have done my best to make the case, not only that the UFO phenomenon is real, but that the complexity, ubiquity, and unintelligibility of the phenomenon are so great as to suggest that many of our most fundamental assumptions about the nature of reality itself may be incorrect. This episode is my closing argument in the case of The Phenomenon vs. Consensus Reality. And when it’s done, I hope that you’ll agree with me that it’s time to burn it all down. Or at the very least, I hope you’ll agree that perhaps it’s time to consider some new models of reality that have the potential to reintroduce meaning and intelligibility into our broken world where impossible things won’t stop happening.In this episode, we’ll begin by talking about what’s broken with our current models including the Big Bang, the hard problem of consciousness, quantum mechanics, and space-time. And we begin to ask, what do our broken models suggest about the nature of the cave that we find ourselves in? And what does all of this have to do with UFOs?NEW Class from Dr. James MaddenUnidentified Flying Hyperobject: UFOs, Philosophy, and the End of the WorldFour-week online class via ZoomWednesdays, March 27 – April 24 (skips April 10), 20247 – 9 pm ETLearn More About the ClassSign Up NowLISTEN TO THESE EPISODES FIRSTIf these ideas are new to you, you might find it helpful to go back and listen to the previous two episodes to get greater context.Ep 17: An Interview with Dr. Diana Walsh PasulkaEp 18: An Interview with Dr. James MaddenGO TO EPISODE BRIEFGET TICKETS TO THE OHIO UFO HERITAGE CONFERENCEMay 5th & 6th at the historic Hope Hotel at Wright Patterson Air Force BaseBECOME A PATRONGET THE BOOKGet a SIGNED COPYGet it on AmazonFOLLOWWebsiteTwitterFacebookMUSICTheme: Cabinet of Curiosities by Shaun FrearsonMusic Break: Digital Abyss by Stephen KeechTIMESTAMPS00:00:30 Introduction00:04:03 The “Official Story of Everything”00:07:00 The Dream of the Cave00:13:55 Everything You Know Is Wrong00:19:45 The Big Bang00:29:28 The Ghost in the Machine00:37:35 Music Break00:38:32 The Hard Problem of Consciousness00:45:52 Quantum Mechanics Breaks Everything00:55:22 Space-Time Is Doomed00:57:35 The Emperor Has No Clothes01:01:25 The Walls of the CaveBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-ufo-rabbit-hole-podcast--5746035/support.
