    417 — Surprising Nutrition Truths No One Told You Until Now With Dr. Autumn Smith

    It’s just a fact that people are far more tuned into current events — AI, data centers, bad TV shows and politics — while their eyes are glued to their mobile phones than what they put in their mouths, thus putting their health at a far greater risk than ever before. The bigger problem: There’s a wealth of research that shows how and why eating nutrient-rich organic food and grass-fed meats really matters but few know about it outside the realm of research. Dr. Autumn Smith, co-founder of Paleovalley and Wild Pastures, shares what she’s learned about glycine (one of the most overlooked nutrients in modern nutrition), brain nutrition and what you should be avoiding this week on Spirit Gym. Download Autumn’s presentation she shares during her Spirit Gym conversation with Paul — The Glycine Gap — at this link.

    416 — Stop Treating Pain Like the Enemy With Leigh Brandon

    Your relationship with pain probably goes one of the two ways… Most people take the conventional route and try to obliterate it with drugs and extreme treatments they may not need (that can hurt them even more than the pain itself). In many cases, their relationship with pain defines who they are. Paul and senior CHEK instructor Leigh Brandon, author of Beyond the Pain: A Whole-Person Approach to Understanding Pain and Participating in Recovery, explore a very different and holistic relationship with pain, one that doesn’t treat it like an enemy but a vital source of information about your body this week on Spirit Gym. Learn more about Leigh and his work at his website. Find him on social media via Instagram, Twitter/X and TikTok. Check out Leigh’s podcast, Beyond the Pain, on YouTube, Apple Podcasts and wherever you listen to them. Read the first chapter of Beyond the Pain at this link.

    413 — Was Jesus a Myth? With Sean O’Laoire

    Most people believe in Jesus as a savior who shared parables, performed miracles and died for our sins during his brief life. But is that really true? For the longest time, Paul had tried to connect with Jesus yet came up empty until recently when his soul led him to Jesus, the man not of the Bible. Paul and Sean O’Laoire examine the life of Jesus from very different and complementary perspectives that may encourage you to reconsider what you think about myth and the Bible this week on Spirit Gym. Learn more about Sean at his Spirits in Spacesuits website. Find him on social media via Facebook, Instagram and YouTube. Timestamps 11:05 Epistemology, ontology and cosmology. 15:28 Was Jesus a product of Jesus mythicism (Christ myth theory)? 19:38 What modern historians DO agree on about the life of Jesus. 31:08 The difference between wisdom and knowledge. 34:56 Mythish: Sacred wisdom shared in story form. 40:20 The use of metaphor. 52:09 “When power becomes available, morality goes out the window.” 1:05:30 Prosopon. 1:17:27 A cohort of souls. 1:27:11 Sean is one of few people Paul thinks about the most, especially when he gets very irritated at Christianity. 1:38:13 Paul spent many years tracking Jesus and only experienced emptiness, until he recently connected with Jesus, the man not of the Bible. 1:42:54 What really happened to Jesus after the crucifixion. 1:45:35 What is evil? 1:46:34 Did Jesus practice a religion? 1:49:45 How Paul brought alchemy into his teachings. 1:54:16 Awe. 2:01:47 Why one minister taught kids at his church to fear God. 2:11:13 “We volunteer to be here right now.” Resources Setting God Free: Moving Beyond the Caricature We've Created in Our Own Image by Sean O’Laoire Noosphere Teleology Dr. Walter Russell’s Home Study Course Third Edition (FREE PDF link) The work of Bart Ehrman, Paramahansa Yogananda, Thomas Aquinas, Stanislav Grof and Elie Wiesel Finite and Infinite Games: A Vision of Life as Play and Possibility by James Carse The Religious Case Against Belief by James Carse Streams of Wisdom by Dustin DiPerna and Ken Wilbur The Web of Meaning: Integrating Science and Traditional Wisdom to Find Our Place in the Universe by Jeremy Lent Find more resources for this episode on our website.

    412 — Forget Little Green Men: Consider the Sentient Theory of UFOs/UAPs With Michael Jawer

    When people ask for your opinions about UFOs, are the little green men from The X-Files the first things that pop in your head? Michael Jawer, author of the upcoming book What UFOs Really Are, believes we should be less focused on aliens flying in the sky and directing our attention on our inner selves and downward to living things anchored on the ground like plants, trees and fungi.  Join Paul and Michael on a wide-ranging conversation that could make you look at reality in a brand-new way this week on Spirit Gym.
