I really enjoyed this episode — it’s a fascinating subject and an engaging discussion. However, as a trained professional remote viewer who has studied and practiced Controlled Remote Viewing (CRV) intensively for over five years, I do want to make an important point.
It concerns the way some people try to justify their visions or prophecies by calling them remote viewing. I often hear the phrase, “Oh, I just automatically remote viewed — I didn’t need any training.” With respect, that simply isn’t how remote viewing works. Remote viewing — especially CRV — is a very specific, structured, and disciplined methodology. It’s not something that happens by accident or through intuition alone.
I understand why people want to associate their experiences with remote viewing: the U.S. military’s Stargate program achieved remarkable results, and it’s natural to want that credibility. But when someone claims to “remote view” without any understanding or training in the actual protocol, it blurs the line between genuine, replicable skill and personal inspiration. It also risks undermining the hard work of those who have trained properly and who use the method with integrity.
There’s nothing wrong with having visions or intuitive insights — far from it. Those experiences can be beautiful and meaningful. But they should be celebrated for what they are, not dressed up in CRV terminology to lend them legitimacy. Don’t justify your visions — live them, share them honestly.
Controlled Remote Viewing is an immense, learnable skill that requires practice, patience, and dedication. It refines the mind, expands awareness, and can be used to help people — medically, emotionally, even spiritually. But it’s a trained discipline, not a label to borrow.
So thank you for an otherwise excellent podcast. Just please, when a guest claims to be a remote viewer, ask them a few questions about their training and background. There’s absolutely nothing wrong with that — in fact, it honours the real work behind CRV and keeps the conversation honest.
