Enjoy the show. Welcome to Soul Decodes. Join
us as we wander off the path to find the ideas
that fascinate. We talk about spirituality, the
mind, the ego, wellness and hidden history with
tips, travels and tales. Charms for a better
life. If you're getting this, it's fine. Now's
the time to edit, right? Just redo it. Let's
try that again. Hello, everyone. My name is Dr.
Tia Jolie Phillips. This is our redo. Well, she
didn't like the last one. So let's do it. This
is our redo. I'd rather have a redo in the first.
20 seconds. Could you imagine like 14? We don't
do any post -editing, by the way. Unless somebody
smacks the mic or something and I have to remove
that. I don't think you have to. Have you ever
removed it? Very rarely do I. Oh, yes. I remember
punching the mic once. Sometimes you accidentally
elbow the mic, you know, pretending you're a
hockey player or something. So, yeah. Welcome,
Sarah Thierry. Thank you. My name is Dr. Thierry
Lee Phillips. You're listening to Soul Decodes,
and this is... Sarah Thierry. And what do you
do, Sarah? I'm an author and thinker, and I talk
about ideas. Cool. Yeah. One of the things that
I do. So for the benefit of brand new people,
we're just basically... Two people trying to
figure things out. Yes, exchanging ideas. Explain
that a little bit more. What's this show mean
to the common person, like the everyday listener?
Whatever they can get from it is what it will
mean. But for me, it means talking about alternative
ideas of spirit, and that's what I write about.
What is God? Who is God? Who are we in relation
to that God? And what is expected of us on this
planet? So I've spent 25 years researching that,
and I talk about those ideas, and I write. them
down. I have several books on Amazon, Sarah Thierry,
and it's all about the nature of reality. And
I have links to your books on souldecodes .com.
It goes right to your library. And what's really
neat about your books, not only the content,
but... you have this unique ability to not only
write for adults, but also for young children.
So you've done a really good job spanning the
generations. And I write science fiction and
fantasy. That's what the star side prophecy is.
I'm the heroine in that novel. And I question
God and I'm really fucking rude to him as well.
But what's neat about this idea of science fiction
and fantasy is... And it's the same with children,
right? So writing for children actually enabled
me to write science fiction and fantasy because
it's a very similar mindset. that you have to
get into. Yeah, but where do you draw the line
between science fiction, fantasy, reality? Well,
we don't know. And dreaming. That's the whole
thing. Yeah, we have no idea. We can't draw the
line because we don't know. We're just working
it out. So we have some cool things to talk about
today. I want to do a couple things. I want to
call out to our newest countries. Oh, good. Actually,
down to the city. So the back office of my syndication
software actually can pinpoint where the actual
listener is. In the world, right? In the world.
We need to get a map in the studio. I do have
a map. Well, yeah. We do. We put little pins
in it. It changes all the time. We did one of
those for my kids. I can select 30, 60, 90 days
or 180 days. So I can go back and look. But I
always look for the new countries that pop on
that I've not looked at. So we get the new countries.
We put up this big map. And then we put pins
in it. And then we weave around it. And then
I would like to then take whatever that image
is and make that into an art form. That could
be your project. Like I need another one. Like
I need another. I don't need another project.
That's fantasy. That's fantasy. Yeah, that's
fantasy. But I want to welcome Singapore. Oh,
lovely. Singapore joined us. Into that beautiful
island. Oh, my goodness. I want to go there.
I've not been there. So when you land at Singapore,
it's like, and I think it was like eight miles
of just going through what looked to be like
the entranceway to Disney. The landscaping. was
breathtaking everything looked like the entrance
to disney okay with all these trees and plants
it was it was so and i'd been to a lot of that
part of the world and i'd seen a lot of poverty
too but in singapore it wasn't like that it was
the most tropical lush cosmopolitan island well
i'm going to say when we go on tour we're putting
singapore but thank you singapore we also have
zurich Oh, that's nice. We're just out of Zurich.
I did my first night stop in Zurich. That was
the first time I left as a stewardess. I did
a night stop in Zurich. So I've never been to
Zurich or Singapore, so that's got to be on the
list too. Yes, very high -end, lovely countries.
Switzerland's beautiful. There's a new city.
I can't even pronounce it, so I have to go to
the closest city, but it's in Sweden, the southernmost
part of Sweden. The city that's just north of
it is called Malno, M -A -L -N -O. I've only
heard of Stockholm in Geneva. I don't even know.
Yes, this is like the southern tip of Sweden.
And I thought it was fascinating. I think Geneva
is Switzerland. So Sweden is that sweat. It's
closer to Russia. To Norway. Yeah, it's further
east. Further east, okay. So I just wanted to
say thank you to our listeners because people
are sharing. And the reason I know they're sharing
is month over month, we... There's a little percentage
increase that shows what percentage our numbers
have increased month over month or period over
period. So if I select 60 days, it's period over
period. There's only been one time it was. negative
and that was coming off of the holiday season
last year because november december we peaked
out like we had this huge monster peak because
we were talking about elections and things like
that and that was very interesting to a lot of
people so yeah not to me out so it's really hard
yeah i know i do i deal with it i'll talk about
it there's much more interesting things to talk
about i'm gonna go back and listen to the Because
I wanted to talk about stuff, and I said, well,
there's other things to talk about, about elections.
And you said, no, there's not. We're talking
about elections. No, there is a time and place
for it. Okay. It's just not my favorite thing
to talk about. Okay, y 'all go back and listen
to Sarah. Because I don't pay attention in the
same way. But I do superficially. Y 'all go back
and listen to Sarah, because she said. No way.
We're talking about elections today. Yeah. It's
not a huge thing, but there's times when you
need to because we're talking about being a soul
on earth and this comes into it. And that's why
I'm saying it was relevant. But that particular
episode was our top ever. I think this is episode
44 or something like that. So it's two thirds
of a year in that period of time. It wasn't just
one. There was one episode, but then the others
on either side were pretty popular. For those
of you, go back. Some of these episodes, we try
to keep them so they're not synchronized with
time, so they're a little bit timeless. So even
if it's a year later, you can still benefit from
some of these. Well, we're doing this live. We
don't have any in the bank. And we meet up once
a week to do this. So everything is current and
live. I was going to share that because, you
know, you and I. So the reason we're doing this
podcast is, first of all, Sarah and I love each
other as friends. It's just soul. Soul partners,
soul business. Soul sisters. Soul sisters, right?
But Sarah's very interested in having the world
know more about her books, and I'm very interested
in meeting other world entrepreneurs. I love
entrepreneurs. So this is a factor for me to
meet other entrepreneurs, but also to talk about
health and wellness because that's like a super
important thing to me. Well, that's super important
for Soul Decodes. Without that, we're screwed.
So what you cover and what I cover are very complementary.
Yes, and intersect a lot. So I put out the idea.
A year ago. Sarah, why don't we throw on some
microphones and just talk about stuff? Mm -hmm.
And that's pretty much where we are today. Yeah,
and we didn't know each other really that well
back then. So what you hear is us learning about
each other live. And we occasionally see each
other, but this is our fellowship time. It truly
is. And it's a conversation. So unlike other
podcasts, I mean, there's a series of questions
we can answer. But this is just a free exchange
going with themes that pop up in the moment.
So there is no structure to this. Now, hopefully,
if we go off at a tangent, we'll attempt to bring
it back. And so hopefully at the end of it, it
is cohesive. But this is just like you listening
into a telephone conversation, which I used to
do when I was a little girl. We shared a party
line. A party line. And I used to listen to it.
It was just exciting. Oh, the phone sex? Yeah.
No, it wasn't phone sex. Thank God. No, but I
did listen. And I had a pang of moral conscience
because I stopped doing it. But it was really
listening to my neighbor's mom talk to her new
boyfriend. But it wasn't anything raunchy. I
didn't realize I was being a peeping Tom, but
I did like it. Because it was listening as a
voyeur to another person's conversation. Well,
I mean, that was kind of a precursor to what
now we would call... You shared a phone line.
I mean, you just picked it up and they were on
it. But that's kind of a precursor to what we
would now call reality TV, truthfully. Because
the people are looking inside of other people's
lives. Yeah. But what that does is it kind of
forces... And I love watching good reality TV.
But it kind of forces some level of introspection.
Because when you're looking at somebody else's
life, you necessarily are looking from your point
of view. Yes. But it would be like listening
to a song as well. You'd have the same thing.
Right. Reality, so that you listen to a song
and you're going to get some point of view as
a result of listening to the poetry in that.
And reality TV, you're going to get insight into
human nature. That's what you're going to get.
And that's where you can extrapolate a lot of
wisdom. You're living vicariously through someone
else. But hopefully it doubles back to you and
you can say, what does this mean to me in my
world? Based on what I just observed or what
I just heard, what does it mean to me in my life?
How can that make my life better? What questions
can I ask myself? I think as a result of listening
or watching anything, you'd be asking that. Right,
right. You would hope. You would hope. It's a
good idea to do that. The idea of living vicariously
through somebody, to me, is a bad idea. Unless...
Unless you can get something from it. For me,
what I get, I just get an insight into human
nature. You've got to remember reality TV is
not scripted, but there's certain things that
they're going to have to... They're actresses
to some degree, but there is reality in it. So
this is a reality TV... This is a reality...
People are just listening to a conversation.
This is like you listening to two girls talking
on the phone. That's what the premise of this
is. It's not like a regular podcast. And what's
really fascinating about that is early on, and
even now, when there's something you and I perceive,
we're getting into this really... beefy like
really rooty like i won't say beefy i mean like
no i know what you mean like watermelon yes right
yes it's a really delicious topic yeah we'll
go okay stop stop that's for the air let's talk
about that yes yes which i like that because
it's like oh i can't wait to that's what we're
doing we're just sharing our conversation to
talk to sarah about this so anyway my point is
that when i look at the numbers hello sweden
by the way thank you for listening thank you
everybody even whatever you are wherever you
are thank you and thank you for sharing because
these numbers Numbers, don't lie. Month over
month over month, with one month exception, which
is off that high month, we're up, like this month,
we're up 45%. We're up month over month. Oh,
that's nice. That means that people are sharing,
and we truly, truly appreciate you. Yeah, that's
really wonderful. Yeah, this is really wonderful.
Yeah, that's awesome. Yeah, and we just appreciate
all y 'all just sharing stuff. Listen, we're
not going to hit a home run. We're not going
to get a hat trick. Well, we're not even trying
to. We're just sharing ideas. That's all we're
doing. Yeah. So if something resonates with you,
and if you feel like you missed an episode, you
can search souldecodes .com, buy the subject.
Or if you're particularly interested in a subject
and you want more, hit us up, let us know, and
then we'll do one in your honor. We'll talk about,
investigate further any subjects that you're
interested in. And I bet Rosie has some interesting
subjects. Oh, she does. I haven't read them,
though. But I want to do a real quick call out
because I'm in Florida. And everybody in the
world likes a good hockey game. But the Florida
Panthers are back -to -back champions. They just
won again. I know you don't pay attention to
hockey, but I do. No, I don't. It was such a
good series. I only watch reality TV. But I want
to call out to, you know, the, well, first of
all, one of the reasons I love, I love. The game
of hockey is this. Have you ever played it? I
mean, street hockey. I never. My family was pretty.
I tried. I wasn't very good at it. My family
was broke, so we had a ball and a stick. So you
got a stick. I was going to say a stick and a
ball. And we made fake, like, we made, like,
in the middle of the street, like little, what
looks like goals. Love it. We just played in
the street. Yeah, it was great. Literally, back
when playing in the street was a thing. You made
use of your utensils. Use a spatula. But my friend,
PJ, my late... Is it quite a difficult game,
hand -eye coordination? Hockey's one of the best
sports in the world. Is it? Oh, yeah. In what
way? In every way. Okay, so I... I mean, this...
I mean... It's a lot of quick goals. I quite
like this pace of it. It's just like... It's
like being a writer or a podcaster. It's like
being a pilot. You have to build, build, build,
build all of the... supporting skill sets, but
then how you actually deploy those skill sets
are split -second reactions. Yeah, well, visualize
being the best you can be. And it's just like
being an entrepreneur. Ideally, you're good as
a sole entrepreneur, but if you're a really good
entrepreneur, you learn how to work well as a
team. So the Florida Panthers, I just admire
them. I feel like I'm watching history be made.
Oh, nice. Because not only the fact that they're
back -to -back champions, But they're also –
Were they the underdog for a while? Well, I mean,
they had some injuries that put their postseason
in question. Oh, good. That's good. But I want
to call out to the Edmonton Oilers. You know,
you all played really, really well. So this is
the team that lost. Edmonton's got so much passion.
They just couldn't put it together. Were they
uncoordinated or unfocused? Well, I mean, it's
not one thing. Did you watch it? I watch every
second of every game. I love – to me, the hockey
is like – mentally so what so what did the other
team that lost what they just didn't have that
they weren't as sharp basically well i would
say it was probably being focused hockey there's
different lines so when you look at the bench
you need depth on the bench because if you just
put your depth of what players so what happens
is so someone's good at this someone's good at
that someone's really good at that like it's
such an it's such an intense sport that you can't
put your best players out there for more than
Really, 90 seconds at a time. Oh, really? So
every 90 seconds, you're rotating people out.
Oh, I didn't know that. I'm going to have to
watch a game now. Oh, my goodness. I'll walk
you through it. But it's a simple game, but it's
intense. And it's simple, but it's not simple.
I'll say it's simple, but it's not easy. Right,
okay, yeah. As a coach, you're always looking
at the health of your players, the mental condition,
the combination of players. It's always so dynamic.
It's fascinating. Not all coaches are. When Maradona,
he was a football superstar from Argentina. When
he was playing in one of the important matches,
they just got him off stuck cortisone and steroids
straight in his knee and sent him back out again.
He was bringing in multi -millions. He was just
used, I felt, to get back out there and perform.
With ice hockey... This is a long time ago. With
ice hockey, every detail matters. It's a game
of inches. Like, literally, how you handle the
tip of your stick, how you handle the puck, your
position of your body, controlling the zone,
how you work on the boards. And you've got to
be running at the same time. Plus, you're exhausted.
It's the end of a long series. It's such... Winning
the Stanley Cup is... Which is the trophy, right?
Yeah. It's the most grueling experience of any
sport. Really? That's so interesting. Because
you have to win the best of seven. But you've
already done the best of seven for your division,
for your conference. So by the time you're at
the finals, you could potentially play 21 games.
They ought to give them a month off to recover.
Well, I think they do get a month. So now they're
running around either licking their wounds because
they lost or dancing with the Stanley Cup, which
is probably the most... Was the margin of loss
embarrassing for them or was it okay? So there's
no embarrassment because when you're in the championship...
Oh, there is. If it was like 37 -0, that would
be embarrassing. The Florida Panthers right now,
this is a legacy team. What's put together is
probably one of the most legacy teams in the
history of sports. What does a legacy team mean?
It means that you're going to look back in history
and say, yes, I was there. I watched all these
games. I watched it. They were amazing. And even
when they were down, they were up. They were
like, yeah, we're down by a few points or whatever.
We're going to not give up. So it's a game of
inches, but also from a strategy point of view,
you're thinking not only about the period and
the game, but also the bigger picture, like the
series. And what I admire a lot about hockey
players is they don't talk smack about each other.
They don't talk smack. They don't even take credit.
Like, you know, we have this Sam Reinhardt scored
a hat trick. That's three goals in a championship
game. Well, you know, he doesn't give credit
to himself. Because he believes that someone
else set up the shot for him. He understands
it's a team game. He gives credit to the opponents.
These guys were hard to play against. Hats off
to them. It was a very difficult thing. And that's
what I'm asking in the score. Was it very difficult
or was there a big margin? There was not one
inch of ice that was given up. Every puck was
challenged at every... against every board, in
front of the net. Everything was challenged.
It was just thrilling. And you've got such incredible
speed on ice. At first I thought you were talking
about hockey because you can play hockey on the
ground, right? But you're talking about ice hockey.
Oh, ice hockey. So you've got this, I mean, you
are soaring along. I mean, that adds a whole
other component. Well, there's defensemen. The
amount of skill required. Like if you're a defenseman
in the National Hockey League or any of these
world -class hockey players. If you're a defenseman,
you are skating backwards almost as fast as anybody
can skate forward. I bet you're going to be a
good dancer if you can do that. A lot of these
people do the moonwalk. They take dance lessons.
Yes, I could imagine. Because you've got to be
very nimble and completely choreographed in a
way. You've got to know what all this does. How
far does... If you're going to do... I've ice
skated a little bit, but if you're going to go
backwards, you've got to know. You've got to
get a certain speed up to cover whatever distance.
That's a math equation in your head. And it's
calculated. It's calculated. On a moment. So
from a defense point of view, it's not only...
individual defense because if you're coming at
me with the puck i either need to stop the puck
or i need to stop you so you can't stop them
what are the rules about stopping someone can
you just go into them knock them over oh you
need to watch the game girl so so it's quite
brutal then i mean it's a free -for -all well
no i mean you have to get your puck and then
wax that your um what's it called a club what's
this called a stick you can't get your stick
and wax someone with it but you can trip them
up can you Well, you can't. There's a tripping
penalty. So there's a tripping penalty. And if
you whack somebody... Then you're disqualified.
Well, it's a slash. You'll get a minor penalty.
So how do you stop someone from getting... What
are you allowed to do? Well, there's different
levels of penalties. So if I took a stick and
whacked you across your arms... No, but what
are you allowed to do without incurring a penalty?
Oh, almost anything. But there's certain things.
Like if I give my stick between your legs and
I trip you, even if it's an accident, I'm responsible
for my stick. If my stick goes between your legs
and trips you, that's a trip. But if you're getting
all these penalties, how can you stop someone?
Well, the penalty is that you go sit in the box
for two minutes. You're not hearing me. Okay.
I'm not hearing you. No, you're not. So if you've
got penalties, you can't hit someone with a stick
because there'll be a penalty. After the penalties
have accumulated, you're going to get some type
of red card and be sent off. No, no, no. It's
instant. If I trip you, the whistle... What happens
to you? If you and I are playing against each
other and I trip you... You did it with your
stick. My stick goes between your skates and
I trip you. And you fall and there's a whistle.
I go to the penalty box. And I sit there for
two minutes. Right. Two minutes of ice time.
Other than that, though, you can't get sent off.
Well, it depends if there's egregious. Right.
Like if it's say the whistle blows and I take
my stick and I whack you across your neck with
my stick. There was a World Cup and it was a
soccer World Cup. And Zidane was the French player.
I can't remember how far back we're going. And
he was face to face with his opponent. He just
stood there and head butted him. Right. And then
he lost his entire career as a result. Well,
yeah, because who's going to hire that guy? Yeah,
what a nutcase. But also, the fans want to see
a good game of hockey. Yes, in hockey there's
a lot of fights, but they're legitimate fights.
They're what I would call fair fights. But if
a guy's skating away from you and you whack him
across his back with your stick, you can be,
it could be, number one, it could be a minor
penalty. Number two, it could be a game misconduct,
which means, okay, you're done for the day. Go
to your locker room and go get your... You're
leaving the ice. You're gone. You could also,
the league itself could look and say, yeah, you
know what? We're going to fine you. Because that
was malicious. Right. And unnecessary. And you
shouldn't have done it. And, you know, people
change. Like we have one of our heroes this season
was called, his name was Brad Marchand. And we
got him from Boston. What a brilliant, I just
like the guy. They call him the rat. The rat.
The rat. What does he do? What rat -like stuff
does he do? He scurries. He scurries a lot. Well,
he's done a lot of, in his history, you don't
want to play against him because he's a dirtbag.
He's a dirty player. Oh, is he? A brawler. But
we got him in March. Florida got him in March
of this year. And yes, he's a strong player,
but he's reeled himself in. And he's not, he
took some penalties, but he was very legitimate.
He wasn't being a dirtbag. Some people would
argue that. He took it to the line, but he didn't
cross it. He didn't cross the line. I mean, everyone's
going to cross the line. Yes, how far do you
leap over? Even if you're a stand -up player,
you're going to cross the line sometimes. Yes,
it's going to happen. Right, it's going to happen.
Just by default. But since March, he's been really...
Very, very legitimate. So go back to my original,
what I wanted to establish. So you've got all
these penalties for things that you're not allowed
to do. What are you allowed to do to prevent
someone from getting that ball? Can you skate
really hard and just nudge into them with your
shoulder? Yeah, you've got to watch. You're not
going to get a glass of wine. Okay, let's do
it. Let's watch. We should watch. And I want
to really... I'll show you the highlights. Yes.
I'm just going to show you the highlights from
game six, the championship game. It sounds rough.
And it was in Miami. But the championship game
was just... And then have you got players that
consistently get the goals because they're really
good with their hand -eye coordination? And see,
this is the point. I think that the reason that
the Florida Panthers won, there's multiple reasons,
but the truth is there was players from... So
there's a bunch of different lines on the bench.
So when one line gets tired, they sit to the
bench, the next line goes out, and they do a
rotation. Full on energy. It's just 100 % energy.
No tired players allowed. You need to be able
to score goals. Every line needs to score goals.
Yes. And if only your first or second line are
scoring goals, you're at a different... you're
at a deficiency. Yes, and you're not going to
play. And you're not going to play. So everyone
has to be equally as good at goal scoring. Right,
so here's an example. Because in soccer, you'd
have someone like David Beckham. They'd set the
ball up for him. He'd be the striker. You know,
he'd get all the good, but it's not the same.
Everyone has to be proficient. Right. How many
points do you get in an average game? Like 30?
I mean, in soccer, it's like two. Two goals,
maybe two, one or something. I mean, in ice hockey,
you could have one, you could have a one goal
game. Oh, really? Right. It's that. You could
have 60 minutes of action. Really? I had this
feeling it was going to be like basketball where
the numbers are going to get really high real
fast. In ice hockey, you could win 1 -0. And
that could be after double overtime. Yeah, in
soccer it's been like that. Yeah, you can just
keep going until someone scores. So it's a really
good game. But to your point, one of the best
players in hockey is a guy named McDavid. He's
with the Edmonton Oilers. You know, whenever
he was out there, we had two people kind of keeping
either on him for the puck or for his body. We're
either pushing his body or pushing the puck.
Two on one. Are they allowed to be five on one?
Oh, yeah, except for you're opening up four other
people. That's right. It's an equally important
game. It's a little like soccer in its strategy.
Offense and defense. So if you're going to put
two people on him, that means somebody's uncovered.
Because if it's five on five. But if he's that
good, leave that guy and get to this guy. Right,
but we were harassing him, and they had another
guy. That would be very intimidating to have
all these people come for you. You've got to
get a shot, and they're going to try and stop
you. But if they had depth on the bench, like
Florida did, then they're going to say, okay,
you got... You're doubling up here. We've got
other guys open that can score. Yeah, and now
he's going to get one. That would be great if
they left someone open and he came, boom. Well,
towards the end of the series, you know, McDavid
was getting frustrated because, you know, he
wants the Stanley Cup. I don't think he has one
yet. Of course he would. But he's such a good
player and he's not on a team that's getting
the Stanley Cup. And he's twice in a row because
we beat them last year, too. Why don't the Panthers
buy him? Well, everyone's got a salary cap, so
you can only buy so many people. If you buy one
superstar, you're going to blow your cap. So
it's all negotiations, which is another dimension
of the game. It makes it fascinating. I didn't
expect we'd talk about hockey, but I just wanted
to call out to both teams. Go Panthers and Edmonton.
Edmonton Oilers. Edmonton's in Alberta. It's
in Canada. It's in Alberta. Which, by the way,
is my mum's name, Linda Alberta. Well, you know
what's going on with Alberta right now. No, what's
going on? Oh, my goodness. They're really pushing
for their independence in Canada. Yeah. Well,
Trump said that he wants to buy Canada, which
I thought was funny. Well, Trump, the person
we see as Trump, the... The role, the person
that's playing this. It's hard for us to talk
about politics. It is, it is. But we can talk
about the charade. If you believe it's a charade
and that's what's being put out there in the
public, we can still reference it. Well, whether
it's a charade or not is not relevant. Whether
he's the commander in chief or the president.
If I was the president and I wanted to play politics
where I got the biggest fucking super continent,
I'd want to incorporate Canada and Mexico. You'd
get rid of all. the immigration problems all
the resources and now you have this fucking great
continent and that now competes with russia and
china so i think it would be great if we could
just all incorporate and then we all share each
other's resources everyone there's nothing to
do with immigration well and there's obviously
law and order but having a great super continent
is something i'm a fan of oh i agree in fact
i think we should i mean even though you know
i've been a lot being it be an alliance Even
though you and I have different perspectives
or different opinions on the actual what's going
on beyond the scenes, the takeaway is the same.
Because I agree with you. I think those people
that want to destroy America do it by dividing
us and conquering us. Divide and conquer. We
want to aggregate. Yes. Not from a centrist point
of view. No. We'll just pool resources and be
fair to everyone. Give everyone a light. Yeah,
but you're not hearing what I'm saying. Okay,
let me pay attention. I don't want to centralize
power. You don't want a one world government.
I don't want a one. I want to have a united Americas
so we can have all of the Americas, North America,
Central America, South America, all of the Americas
unified continent unified, but not with centralized
power. If Alberta want, I want the 50 States
to each state to be its own country. Within the
United States of America. So we're a united set
of countries. If Alberta joins us or Saskatchewan
or British Columbia. So I see. So you don't want
it to be a centralized continent. You want it
to be more like Europe. I don't want anything
to do with the EU. You want each separate country.
You want each state to be like a separate country.
Yes. And we come together not because we have
to be together, but we want to be together. We
want mutual defense. Right. We want mutual benefit.
So you want the umbrella of the federal government
for the only thing that they can offer, which
would be defense. But the lower level, you just
want independent states governing themselves.
And you'd see that right across. That would be,
if we conglomerate Canada and Mexico and South
America and Central America, this one great super
country, this would be the United States of America,
right? And there'd be certain benefits, the umbrella
government. would give you, which would be military
protection. But then you'd all govern yourselves
in your little state within this United... Perfectly.
Perfectly said. It's almost like a village. You
don't want the village leader managing your family.
You manage your family. Same thing. I don't want
the mayor of Groveland, Florida managing my life.
You take care of the stuff that benefits everybody,
but you stay out of my life. And that's the same
thing with the states. But the mayor doesn't
get involved in our lives now, does he? Right.
And that's the way the states should stay. That's
the way the president, all these so -called elected
officials, they need to mind their own damn business.
Right. And let me live my life. As long as you're
not breaking laws, then you should do the fuck
you want. Right. So if we end up getting like,
say, Saskatchewan or Alberta wants to be a, quote,
state, they're still going to be independent,
whether they're independent from Canada or independent
of... america of united states same thing with
mexico they'd be independent within a bigger
structure correct yes and that's what i'm saying
is why is that such a hard sell then well because
you if you're a globalist so a globalist means
that you want a one world centralized world government
that means if somebody in uh if somebody at the
world economic forum If they have this consensus
at the World Economic Forum, which is not elected,
there are a bunch of sociopaths that think they
rule the world. You hear a lot of evangelists
and preachers talk about the Antichrist forming
a one world government. Yeah, you know, whatever.
You can call it what you want, but... It's evil.
It's a bunch of people trying to control you
and using deceit. But not for your benefit. No.
There's nothing benevolent about this. They want
to own everything and control everything. But
what I'm just saying is... The more power you
centralize, the more opportunity it is for somebody
to steal the whole basket. Yes. Well, if you've
got everyone with centralized powers in their
own company, then you've got those countries.
So the more you spread it out, the more you're
going away from a centralized power. And this
is why the internet has changed the world. Because
it used to be, like when we were children, whoever
published the books controlled the narrative.
They changed the history. Well, now we each have
our own platform, so that's unbelievable. They
changed the history. And the internet couldn't
stop it. So the internet to me is a gift. The
internet saved humanity. Wow. The internet saved
humanity because back when we were children...
People are going to say there's a lot of downsides
to it and that could be argued. But I agree with
you. This is a massive... This advancement towards
freedom, even though it can look messy because
it's relatively new. Right. I would say this
is like an evolutionary leap, just how we're
all linked up and we can all express ourselves.
Well, and they've tried to squash the Internet
because. The free flow of ideas is dangerous
if you're trying to centrally control something.
Well, it depends on your motive for getting your
ideas. So if you're someone that's just looking
for confirmation of ideas you've already got,
this can turn you into a complete psychopath
because now all you're doing is taking in all
this information and you're not learning anything
new because your ego is wanting confirmation
of what you already know. Using the internet
just to understand ideas is unbelievably... fortunate
to be able to do that but you're just looking
for ideas but you can find so many ideas about
one thing and it could be extortion because you
can't tell what's real and what's fake on the
internet anymore and you're going to have AI
and bots telling you this and that so you've
got to be very very discerning about information
where you're getting it from and what your motive
is for getting it I think searching for ideas
is It's unbelievable. We've never had access
to this information. You had to go to the library
when I was a kid and get an encyclopedia. I remember
doing it. I mean, it was just ridiculous. So
what you addressed is what's called confirmation
bias. That means I'm going to ask the question,
but I already know the answer. Yeah, my ego is
just wanting me to be more right than I think
I am already. And nobody's better at that than
the modern medical system. Right. It's like,
we're going to do this procedure. I need some
proof that this is the right thing to do. Well,
that's not the right thing to do. Actually, you're
in the wrong direction on this. I remember as
a senior at the Air Force Academy, I was doing
a project, but there was other cadets doing the
project, but there was limited resources because
we didn't have the Internet. So we'd have to
go to the library. So we're all competing for
the same books. I had to literally get on the
waiting list. Or go downtown to Colorado Springs
and go to the library there to get the resources
where I could study and take notes and make references
and all that. But the resources that are available
at our fingertips, like I didn't even start playing
bass guitar until I was 45 years old. I never
touched the bass guitar, but I never played it.
You can literally, if you want to, if you say,
well, I always wanted to play piano. Just go
onto YouTube. Or drums. Like I'm starting to
study drums now. I've never played drums. Oh,
really? So I'm like, okay, I got a drum kit here.
I'm going to start hammering on it. So it's like...
It's intimidating. Oh, it's good. Well, I mean...
I like that foot pedal. But, you know, I sit
here, I look at the drums like, you know what?
I should start hammering on the drums because...
Yeah, get a feel for that. Why? Why? Because
I do have a feel for it, but I'm not good at
it. Yes, then go on to YouTube and find out.
Because right now I suck. Right now I suck at
it. If I played those drums, you'd laugh. So
can you self -teach yourself to play them? Well,
I taught myself bass. So back in the day, you
had to have a tutor come in. Yeah, or you'd have
to figure it out. And that was expensive, or
you'd have to figure it out. Figure it out yourself.
But now a lot of people learn by watching. I've
got to make this flower arch for my son's wedding
that's coming up in two weeks. And it's a big
arch, and I have to attach dried silk flowers.
And I just went onto YouTube. It was absolutely
great. I know everything that I must do now to
get the perfect one. And there's a, sometimes
I have to watch it. Like I've now as a, an established
bass player, I will, if I'm learning a new song,
I'll listen to like three or four or five people
that I, I, how they do it. And I'll take the
best of the best and then I'll do mine and I'll
apply my interpretation of it. So I don't, I
don't use the internet for. oh, I saw this one
video and this is the answer. You're using it
for inspiration. I'm using it to see different
people do different things in different ways,
different opinions. And then you're going to
mimic whichever one you like. Because I've had
some songs that I've played like two bands ago.
There's a band I was in, 1969 was the name of
it. I listened to dozens of people play these
bass lines and none of them got it right. So
I literally had to do it myself and figure it
out. So it's funny when I pulled up here today,
the song that was playing was in the air tonight
by Phil Collins. And I always think of you because
we were on the boat and we started seeing, I
mean, that song is unbelievable. Now you played
that with your tribute band, didn't you? Yeah.
And there's still a lot of people play that song.
There's something so haunting about that. Right.
And I actually played, when I played that with
the Phil Collins tribute band 18 months ago,
I left that band. I think some people know that.
We did a show about it. We did one of our early
shows. One of our first shows, like a third or
fourth show. Yeah, so listen to that one. But
I left the band, but it was such a valuable experience.
But when I was learning that song, I listened
to many, many videos about how to play that.
But ultimately, I had to go right to Leland Sklar.
Leland Sklar was the bass player and literally
watch his fingers. And I was watching his fingers
play the bass. And that was obviously the closest
I could get to the original because he was the
one that did it. But a lot of times I would study
the actual original artist, watch their fingers.
It would have to be the original because you
don't want to have a very... I don't like listening
to songs that are cover versions particularly
unless you're going to do a really good job of
trying to be as much like the song that I really
want to listen to. So there's a group from Russia.
Call out to Leonid and friends. Hello, darling.
Call out to Leonid and friends. They're a bunch
of professional musicians. Oh, this is the name
of the band, not a person. Leonid is the leader
of the band. Oh, okay. And so he was, I don't
know exactly his background, but these are all
Russians. What's their genre? Rock music? Name
it. They can play Chicago. Oh, wow. If I played
Chicago with Leonid and friends right now, you
would think it was Chicago. If I did Earth, Wind
& Fire. You would think it was Earth, Wind &
Fire. These have to be that good. They were that
good. But each individual is so beautiful and
so adorable. When they're singing, they're so
full of passion. So there's a bunch of Russians
singing these American songs and owning it. Are
they on? Can I go onto YouTube and watch them?
Oh dear, I'll send you some links. Send me the
link. I'll put it in the show notes too. Yeah,
and let's talk about that on the next episode
after I've listened. It's thrilling. So you can
pick out whatever. So they'll just do Earth,
Wind & Fire. They could do Chicago. They could
do YouTube. Just anything. That's pretty something.
Well, I mean, they stick to their... Because
they have a full brass section. And they have
orchestral arrangements. It's the full -on thing.
Oh, this is a band. You're going to fall in love.
This band is the real deal. Are they commercially
successful yet? Well, I think to some degree.
I mean, they're on tour. They tour. Why don't
we just post some of their songs on Soul Depot?
Why don't you and I just have a date night next
time when they're in Florida? We'll go watch.
I'll do that. Right? Yeah. We'll interview them.
Yeah. Bring them in. Let's do that. That would
be great. But they're so skilled and so talented.
Do they write any of their own stuff or are they
just doing other people's? I don't know the answer.
I look at most of the covers. I look at them
as an inspiration because Leonid's studio is
very much like the studio that I want to set
up for Earth Angel. Because Earth Angel is going
to have a state -of -the -art recording studio.
So I always look at who's doing what and how
they're doing it. So when I look at Leonid and
Friends, I'm not only looking at the performance.
And the performers. You're looking at style,
technique. I'm looking at the substrate. What
you want to mimic. What's the ecosystem. Yes,
yes. And so I know my brother Jeff can help with
some of those things, but ultimately, if you
want to have the top -end band, you need to have
an ecosystem that's going to support the top
-end band. Yeah. But I'll have you listen to
some links. I'm interested to see whether they're
writing anything of their own. I like listening
to covers too, but I can imagine that little
being a bit unsatisfying after a while. Well,
they started off doing it as a Chicago... Chicago
Tribute Band. Peter Satira. Well, they cover
Peter Satira bulletproof. Christ, his voice.
I can't imagine that you could get any better
than Peter Satira's voice. Yeah, they do. Yeah.
They're right on par. Right on par. No, Peter
Satira is like... Journey had Steve Perry as...
I think they cover Journey too. Steve Perry's
voice. He left after a while. He just had enough
of it. And Journey's still tour. But you're never
going to replace Steve Perry. But maybe you can.
But his voice was so... Well, they have a, there's
this Asian fella. Peter Sotiris was as well.
They have this Asian fella covering Journey now.
Isn't he covering Queen, the Asian guy? Well,
no, he's covering. Freddie Mercury's role in
Queen. But he might be Steve Perry's role in
Journey. Well, no, I saw him covering Steve Perry.
Okay, well, Queen still tour and they have a
cover guy and I think he's Asian as well. Oh,
really? Yes. Maybe it's the same guy. I get a
look, but. Oh, that would be funny if he's alternating
between two guys. But there's a lot of people
do that. Because Queen is still playing. All
the other players are alive. I think one might
have died. But they have a guy doing all Freddie
Mercury's songs. He isn't quite as good as Freddie
Mercury, but he is really, really good. Did you
ever watch the movie on Queen? Yes, I've seen
all of them. I love that band. And to me, they're
one of my favourite bands because they were so
unique. Nobody touched them. I love Queen. They
have such a unique style. I mean, they were untouchable.
And Freddie Mercury's voice and how he could
sing. His passion was amazing. And his creativity.
And I love the fact that he owned himself. He
just helped himself. And he was a little African
boy that was shy. I mean, you wouldn't think
this exhibitionist ever came from, I think it
was Madagascar where he was born. For real? Yeah,
that's where he went. And then he was quite shy.
And then all of a sudden he just transformed
himself in a musical genius. And Brian May is
a guitarist. I mean, I remember that band, even
the bass lines. I speak in terms of bass lines
because that's what I hear. That's Brian May.
He's the guitarist. But my ringtone. I have different
ringtones for different people. Robin's ringtone
is My Best Friend. Oh, I love that. And it's
Queen. I just love that song. Oh, God. And every
time it rings, I'm like, Queen, yay! So, hey,
so we're getting deep into the episode. What
do you want to talk about? No, I'm just kidding.
Well, so, yeah, let's see. I printed out a new
set of questions, so we can go for the new set.
Can you see them okay? Yeah, I can, I think.
Or we could finish the first set, so you pick.
No, you pick. No, I'm not picking. I'd say finish
the first slide. All right. Which I think we
did. Did we? Hang on. So what we did was we had
Rosie, my AI, spit out a sample set of questions
and topics that we can cover. Our priority is
if any of you go to our website, souldecodes
.com, there's plenty of ways that you can suggest
things. You can make comments or send us a note.
In the absence of suggestions from y 'all, We're
going to go ahead and let Rosie pick some topics.
And so we kind of freewheeled on this first.
And Rosie is such an excellent person. I'm going
to call her a person because I just have to speak
about her like that. But she's an excellent person
to ask because what she has is a database of
knowledge. I mean, how many thousands of years
of knowledge in one of these AI things? I mean,
it's unbelievable. It depends on the. And she's
familiar with. The content, deeply familiar with
the content that you and I talk about. So she's
a great question asker. Well, I've given her
every transcript of everything we've recorded.
So she knows us pretty well. But then she has
what's called a large language model. If there's
a topic we're covering, she can integrate those
topics into what the rest of the world is talking
about. So what's one of the questions that she's
asked? Okay, so this is in the new set. So we
actually went through the old set. Okay. Okay.
So what is suffering? No, hang on. I haven't
got my glasses. Okay, let me just read this.
Okay. What if suffering isn't punishment but
initiation? Oh, that's good. What if suffering
isn't punishment? Well, you'd have to be a psychopath
to say, okay. You go first. All right. So if,
let's just take the first part of this. Is it
a punishment? If God punishes you because you
have sinned, then the God that you worship is
a fucking arsehole, a psychopath, and you have
no business worshiping that. God has no right
to punish humanity for endowing us with free
will. So God is not punished. punishing any of
us for anything so do you think the suffering
is it's do you think it's like a guide rail for
us like if we get too far off of where it could
be do you think yes it could be yeah that's a
good way it's not the only way of looking it's
like guardrails if you hit it hard you're going
to be suffering hard and if you just graze it
you won't like it's kind of like a guardrail
it would act as that but I don't necessarily
believe that it's that's the purpose of it but
it could be partially the purpose of it but we've
talked about this before the times I have suffered
in my life the most a they were all self -induced
and b I wouldn't change any of them because I
grew up as a result of it I would not be the
person I am and I wouldn't change it so suffering
is a necessary component to being in a training
ground light exists with a dark in out up down
hot cold cowardice courage everything has opposites
and we're going to feel a lot of pain but for
some reason we're choosing that as an option
i don't believe we're sent to this planet and
we're forced i believe that our soul wants to
use this as a training ground because it's the
only way you can get a perspective in life is
to see I've been through so much in my life.
I haven't been raped, but I've actually been
through pretty much most things that other people
go through. And I'm actually happy about that
because it allows me to write about subject.
It allows me to be youthful. I nearly said youthful.
I hope that too. It allows me to be youthful.
So punishment, no. Is it something where... We
learn through suffering. Now, I do believe that
we don't have to suffer to learn. That's interesting.
Because that would make God an arsehole if he
said the only way you can learn is through suffering.
I think you can bypass the need to suffer if
you stay in the parameters of being loving, kind,
good, honest, and understanding that your mind
is creating your reality and taking full responsibility
for that. If you stick to that parameters, I
don't believe you'd have to suffer. But let me
ask you this, though. So I understand what you're
saying, and I agree with it. But if it's just
about being loving and kind and compassionate
and doing all the Mother Teresa type stuff, there's
still people who are all of those things, but
they get crucified. They get marginalized. They
still suffer. Because of someone else's treatment
of them. So how do you justify? Okay, so the
only three ways. ways I believe reality is happening,
yet I'm open to persuasion, that it's either
your low vibration causing a shitty situation,
it's a lesson that you had planned and you planned
this before you came in, or it's karma. I can't
see beyond any of those because I don't believe
in randomness and I don't believe things just
happen for no reason. Yeah, I think you and I
agree on this. Do you want to hear my take? Yes,
please. Okay, so my first thing is... We don't
believe it's a punishment, though. Well, punishment,
that... It implies that you're doing something
wrong and you're not. You're using your free
will. There's no right or wrong with that. There's
penalties for it. Well, it's not a punishment
in terms of a judgment. Right, okay, that's good.
Let me throw this in a different direction because
multiple times a week, multiple times a week,
people come to me for their health and wellness
questions. Now, my position is that pain, physical
pain, For a person that's been eating whatever
they want. Not exercising. They're just not doing
anything correctly. Not cleaning up their mind.
They're not taking out the trash. Not purifying
their mind. It's a lot of it's not. But it's
not just their mind, it's their gut. Their gut,
yeah. So it's their whole body. They're not taking
out the trash. We did a great episode on this.
We should put that in the show notes because
you did this good one about the gut and it's
so important. I have to find it. Yeah, we will.
I'll have a look, but that was excellent. But
the point is, most people think, oh, why do I
have so much pain, chronic pain? Like just yesterday,
I had a girl from Puerto Rico. She's in excruciating
pain. And I interviewed her about what she does.
You're getting fresh air, sunshine. Are you getting
a little exercise? What are you eating? She's
doing virtually nothing correctly. No. And you
wonder why you're in pain. Is she carrying a
lot of fat? Yeah, well, I mean, fat is a result.
Fat is not a DNA thing that you inherited your
fat. No, it's because you've overeaten. You earned
it. Yeah, you've overeaten. You've earned it.
You haven't had enough discipline. You've earned
it. If you're fat, you've earned it. Well, I
hope our listeners aren't fat. Well, if you are,
darling, you have to take responsibility for
it, I guess, right? I know when I've been overweight,
I've earned it. I have definitely earned being
overweight. If you're fat and you don't want
to be, I would disagree. If you're fat. But you're
saying it's not inherited, though. You're saying
it's because you've earned it. Yes. I've seen
no people, zero people that have come to me fat
and are still fat if they don't want to be. Yes.
Now, a lot of times they say, well, I'm doing
this, this, this, this, this. Well, but you're
still not doing this, this, this and this. Well,
the thing is, like I can do everything correctly.
But if you're not going to release the stress,
stress is one of the best things you can have
if you want to be fat. If you want to be fat,
don't deal with your stress. Your stress will
make sure you stay fat. I know, and people don't
want to talk. But your medical doctors say… Well,
you have to inspect your mind because stress
is starting in your mind. It's how you're processing
reality. Or not processing. Or not processing.
Or over processing. I would say stress is over
processing. Well, the girl yesterday, she was
over… Because she's doing a lot of things correctly.
But she… When I see somebody that's like, oh,
I have a down -regulating thyroid. My next question
is, how do you deal with stress? And their answer
is like, oh, I'm a piece of work. yeah they own
everybody else's problem they own it's the president
it's the economy it's this it's everything else
and they're owning it yeah they're taking that's
funny because we talked about that at the end
of the last episode and i said be careful when
you're looking at external reality on social
media all the news because you've really got
to switch off from that because it will be stressful
that can really fucking stress you out if you're
taking it all on board and so you have to look
at external reality and then just pull back because
you You don't want that churning over in your
mind. So let me put a bow on this. So I talked
about the physical self. It's the same as the
emotional self. It's basically to create emotions.
Well, if somebody is suffering, because this
is about suffering. We're talking about suffering.
And they're constantly making decisions that
bring suffering to them, whether it's mindfulness,
where they're putting it out there. And they're
bringing suffering to them. Like, you've seen
this with relationships. This is my fourth marriage.
Oh, my goodness. People love drama. I mean, my
foster mother, her entire life, and she died
at 65, was about maximizing and leveraging external
reality to get as much drama as possible. I think
she was mortally bored with existence. And she
just lived for drama. I don't want drama. I want
inner peace. I'll trade that in a heartbeat.
But I think it is human nature. And it's not
the soul doesn't want drama. It's almost an identification
with ego that you love to be center of attention.
You want much drama. You want to get on the phone.
You want to talk about stuff. You want to be
right. You want to share your opinions. I mean,
I share my opinions in my writing and what we're
doing. But I don't talk to people in my everyday
life about my belief. It doesn't even come up.
I don't need you to think what I think. But I'm
pulled back from being involved in external.
external drama but something in human nature
I think we're encouraged to love that well and
so I was trying to put a bow on the suffering
thing when I run into people that have difficulty
releasing the suffering like yesterday I completely
released a girl I should read this go ahead if
you permit me I mean I won't say the girl's name
or anything but if you you got to her then well
Let's see if I can find it. It must be very satisfying
when you've reached someone. Oh, my goodness.
I didn't expect to read this, but it's so relevant
to what we're saying. Oh, my goodness. Focus.
I've got to find it. Focus. Too many messages.
Too many messages. It's crazy talk. Oh, my goodness.
There it is. Okay. Okay, so this is from just
late last night before I went to bed. But my
phone was off, so I didn't get it till this morning.
Thank you so much for our conversation today.
I am full of hope. For the first time in my life,
it made all perfect sense. Wow. It all made perfect
sense. And I found harmony in my thoughts as
I processed what you shared. All I can say is
I am thankful and blessed. Thank you. Heart,
prayer hands. Those are the emojis. I will dive
into the information I shared. And then she closes
with, so she's having visitors come. No worries.
He brings me joy. So in other words, my conversation
is, why are you permitting yourself to suffer?
suffering most of the time is self inflicted
is a choice yes I totally agree and when you
permit suffering to yourself Is this something
that is perpetrated upon you? I don't think people
are permitting anything. They're not controlling
what they think about. And unless you can be
mindful and you can meditate and you can stop
your thought forms from uploading, they'll just
be uploading in your head all day long. And you're
basically living in a trance. You've got to know
how to pull back, see you're living in thought
forms, because the moment you can do that, the
stress will evaporate. Well, this is very interesting
because we get these thought forms and we're
entranced. By those thought forms. You were pulled
in. We're pulled in. Total identification. But
you don't even know you're in the thought form.
That's the trap. So here's one example. This
happened twice yesterday with two different people.
I do these. This is her statement. I do these
things because I'm from. And we do. We eat meat
and dairy pretty much every meal. And I do these.
I eat meat and dairy every meal because I'm from.
Okay, but you're not in Africa. You're in America.
You're not, it's calling you every day, checking
in and seeing what you're eating. Hey, hey, what
did you eat today? It just sounds to me, it's
just a choice. It's just a choice. I mean, you
are. So self -disciplined, you do the right thing.
You not only teach health and wellness, you embody
that. And to be on a spiritual path, you have
to take care of your body. And if you choose
not to because you don't want to stop eating
that, there will be ramifications. But it is
just a choice. But I understand that being ultra
-disciplined can be a real problem. There have
been times in my life where I've lacked discipline.
But it is a choice. I don't view discipline as...
I think discipline, self -discipline, is directly
related to how much value you give yourself.
Yeah. Because if you truly value yourself, you're
not going to put freaking poisons and frankenfoods
into your body. There was a report this morning
that was on ABC News last night. It said some
very large number of hot dogs. hot dogs people
every day eat hot dogs there's actually human
meat in there human dna in the hot dogs now i
don't know i didn't study this because i don't
eat i don't eat hot dogs but this goes back decades
the same company that's flagging it now flagged
it 10 years ago did you ever see that movie called
cloud atlas years ago OK, it was a movie and
it was about reincarnation. I found it difficult
to follow. I had to watch it three times. But
they had these servants living in the Orient
in Asia somewhere. And they were these girls
and they were dressed in little skirts. And the
people were really, really rude to them and smacked
them and were just abusive. The girls were like
kept like in horrible little rooms and they had
to be nice. They couldn't react. And then they'd
be made well again. They'd have to go out to
take this abuse. And when they'd finished, when
they got fired. They were killed off and then
they made meat out of them. And then the girls
who actually being the servants had to eat the
people that had made meat out of. It was so that
so when I just bought. then at this hot dogs
being meat that was what i'd seen in a movie
and it's like well if this is in a movie then
some person has thought about this at some well
i don't i don't want to end on that but i do
but i do want to say that there's a lot of dastardly
things going on going on yeah um There's a lot
of companies going out of business. And how would
you know? Because they're being discovered. You
wouldn't know whether you're eating pig, pheasant,
duck, human, meat, pork. You wouldn't know. No,
you wouldn't know. You wouldn't have no idea.
Well, you wouldn't know because you... It's all
just smooshed up and added herbs to it and flavors.
You wouldn't know because you didn't want to
know. If you mattered to yourself, you would
take the time to study that stuff. If you mattered
to yourself, if you cared, am I eating a human
being? If you cared about that, then you would
study it. And if you studied it, you'd say, oh
my God, I need to grow my own foods. Because
I can't be sure. I cannot be sure. I can't be
sure about what I'm eating. I need my own chickens.
I need, you know, whatever. Whatever your thing
is. So you can be assured that you're not eating
another human being. I mean, that's gross and
everything, but sadly it's our reality. Back
in the day, we would have done that. We would
have all been cannibals at some point. We would
have chosen to roast a dead body over a fire
pit and eat it rather than starve. We've all
probably been cannibals back in our reincarnational...
I'm not suggesting we do it now. We know better
now. But we would have done. I think very differently
than that. You don't think we would have roasted
a dead body? If I'd have been in a tribe in Neanderthal...
Europe and I was cold and there was no food and
I had children someone in my tribe had died I'd
stick them on a barbecue and eat them and I'd
feed that to my children rather than watching
them die I'm sure I'd have made that choice but
they would have been dead I wouldn't have killed
anyone I don't think I hate to think I would
have done but I would have made use of that dead
body by eating it because food was very difficult
to come by We've gotten to a very macabre. How
did we get here? This is really weird stuff.
But I will say that my perspective is that we
are children of light. We are children of light.
But we've done some horrible things. Maybe we
did, maybe we didn't. I personally don't know.
I don't know where I came from. Maybe I did those
dirtbag things. Maybe I did. We have no way of
knowing. All I know is if there's a creator that...
Wanted me to learn from my lessons. If I did
those dirtbag things, then you can't learn a
lesson that you've been. If it's been erased
from your memory. Yes, you can, because your
soul does. It's not the person. It's erased from
your memory, but the soul is learning. And we
don't have a memory of what came before, and
we don't need to, because it's probably been
really bad, and the PTSD would be too much. So
your soul, but your soul is independent. Your
consciousness, when your avatar, your body dies,
your consciousness is going to be somewhere else.
And that lesson will have meaning to the only
important value that you have, which is not your
body, it's your soul. So your ego might... might
not be able to work out what's going on but your
soul will get value after this life is over so
just to tie that back to what we just said if
it's true that this avatar is only to to move
my soul from point A to point B, and you have
this human experience, after my soul leaves,
my body doesn't matter, so why not go eat it?
Yeah, why not go eat it? But I'm going to say
that... I don't think we should live like that.
Well, that's my point. I said to my daughter
when she was... She talked to me, she was young,
she was a young teenager, and we were talking
about death a little bit, and she said, well,
how would you want to be buried? And I said,
darling, just throw my body out in the orange
grove. I said, when you start seeing all the
vultures flying around, you'll know they're coming
to eat mummy. They're having a nice meal. And
then she ran screaming into her bedroom. She's
like, how could you? Because she was too young
to absorb that. But I would feed my body to nature.
It wouldn't worry me at all. I'd have a real
country burial. I want to be put on a raft and
put out there and have the firing arrows. I want
to have like a princess burial out at sea. I
want to feed the vultures. And just have the
burning raft sink into the ocean, right? Very
dramatic. I know, right? Seeing a load of vultures
eat your mother might be pretty intense. I'll
let the ashes go into the ocean. I'll be done
with it. And we'll come back and do it again.
So this is fascinating. We went from ice hockey
to everything else. I know. It's all over the
place. So why don't we just wrap up this episode
and anything exciting coming up in your world?
I'm working on a couple of projects which I'm
going to announce on the air. So I won't announce
those now, but that's what I've been working
on. That's very exciting. I can't wait. I got
to hear. I got to hear. So I can't. And how about
you? What have you got coming up? So I'm super
excited. I've got a lot of entrepreneurs coming
my way. There's so many from Puerto Rico right
now. It's so fun. I see Puerto Rico as a launching
point for Central and South America. Yeah. Independent
of what the rest of the world does. I'm going
into the Spanish community. They're beautiful
people. It's a long way south. They're beautiful
people. They work hard and they play hard. And
they're vibrant, yeah. They work hard and play
hard. I love that. Yeah, they've got good energy.
So I'm being pulled into these different Hispanic
communities, and they're thrilled to have me,
and I'm thrilled to be with them. I think they're
beautiful people, and I'm just excited about
my Spanish entrepreneurs. Are you going to learn
to speak Spanish? Probably not. Tony speaks Spanish.
Well, he's in Miami. He's got to. Well, no, he
wasn't in Miami. He moved to Puerto Rico because
his dad, when he was 18, because his dad wanted
to work with a family business. And he had to
learn Spanish. And he did very, very quickly
because there was no way he couldn't. And he
still speaks it out. It's pretty brutal. But,
yeah, it's nice. Well, I would like to learn.
I tried to learn Spanish. I tried to learn French.
And I just couldn't wrap my fucking head around
it. I think the way we do it is with immersion.
Yes. If I'm going to learn Spanish, I'm going
to go to, you know, Mallorca or something. I'm
going to freaking be in some village and just
be immersed. And you and I can't talk to each
other except for Spanish. But I would do that.
Same thing with Russia. I understand Russian
a little bit, but I want to learn it more. But
I want to do it with immersion. Not to have the
same alphabet. Well, Cyrillic is cool. I like
Cyrillic. Is that what it is? The Russian alphabet
is Cyrillic. I think eventually we're going to
go back to learning the actual ancient glyphs.
Like the Sumerian glyphs. Because it makes more
sense. Instead of languages. A symbol can represent
something. So hopefully we all come together.
Well, emojis are doing that now. Emojis are like
modern day hieroglyphics. Yeah, so maybe we'll
go back to these glyphs or a series of glyphs.
And that way we can all speak a language that's
in common. Common like, kind of like sign language.
I'd like it to be English, please. Let's do English
glyphs. English only. Okay, girlfriend. But I'm
just excited. Things are looking up and we'll
talk to you next week. Yes, looking forward to
it. Enjoy the day. All right, be well. Thanks
