Topic: Joe Atwell

Host Greg Carlwood introduces author Joe Atwell for his third appearance on the program.

Greg Carlwood addresses listener criticism regarding his views on Christianity, clarifying that while he isn't a believer, he doesn't hate Christians. He discusses Joe Atwell’s "Caesar’s Messiah" theory and the potential for religious narratives to be used as tools of empire. The conversation also touches on Rudolf Steiner’s views on the spiritual energy of food, contrasting living bread and fruit with the "dead substance" of factory-processed foods.

The host addresses listener feedback regarding a controversial episode with Joe Atwell, defending the practice of questioning mainstream narratives. He argues that seeking the "raw truth" of historical events is not disrespectful to the dead, but rather a necessary part of investigative research. The discussion touches on the sensitivity of topics like 9-11, JFK, and Sandy Hook, emphasizing that no subject should be off-limits for inquiry.

Alex Tsakiris discusses his current research into first-century Roman history and the origins of Christianity. He suggests that the religion was an early form of social engineering and a "game" played by the Roman Empire, specifically involving figures like Vespasian and the historian Josephus.

The host reflects on the interview, noting Lupa's shift toward a more sobering, naturalist perspective compared to her earlier, more "weird" writings.

The episode concludes with a teaser for an upcoming guest, Joe Atwell, and a discussion on the mechanics of remote viewing.

Miguel Conner aligns with the mythicist camp, viewing Jesus as a "Big M" myth or cosmic archetype rather than a historical figure. This perspective suggests that the various Gnostic gospels were a form of spiritual fan fiction where Jesus served as a vessel for channeled information and inner projection. The power of the Jesus story is compared to inspirational fictional characters like Atticus Finch, where the impact of the narrative outweighs the necessity of historical fact.
