Ryan and Alex explore the idea of a malevolent, parasitic force that has appeared across cultures and religions throughout history. Drawing from Native American concepts like Wetiko and the Wendigo, the Zoroastrian force of Ahriman, and the deceptive Luciferic beings of esoteric traditions, they examine how different myth systems describe an intelligence that feeds on human fear and ignorance. The conversation also dives into the Gnostic Demiurge, the archons, and the notion of a false spiritual “light” that diverts humanity from authentic awakening.

Ryan welcomes researcher and author Miguel Conner for a deep dive into the roots of Gnosticism, not as a Christian offshoot, but as a pre-Christian current shaped by Egyptian mystery traditions. Together they explore concepts like the god above God, the enigmatic figure Abraxas, the role of the divine feminine, and the path of salvation through Gnosis. They also unpack the symbolic power of the serpent and examine the archon control system still reflected in modern life. Learn more about Miguel here: https://www.miguelconner.com/

They dive into the multilayered nature of prophecy across cultures and traditions, compare different end-time narratives, and look at how they may all be pointing to the same underlying pattern.

In this episode, Ryan is joined by Thomas Campbell, a physicist, consciousness researcher, and author of My Big TOE (Theory of Everything). Tom began his career working with Robert Monroe in the early 1970s, exploring altered states of consciousness and the nature of reality itself. Ryan and Tom dive into Tom’s journey from a strictly materialist worldview to a deeply experiential understanding of consciousness. They discuss out-of-body experiences, the role of intent in shaping reality, the Monroe Institute, reducing entropy through love and kindness, and how expanding awareness may be the key to our evolution both individually and collectively.
