    Episode 100: The Final Conversation – Talking to Jesus

    In this final episode, I reflect on why I have decided that, after nearly three years, Talking to the Dead has reached its natural conclusion. During my recent break, I realised just how much this journey has given me—but also how deeply immersing myself in psychic phenomena, spirit communication, interdimensional beings and the possibility of disclosure has affected my everyday life. I explain why I now feel the need to step back and focus more on my family, friends, happiness and the next chapter of my own life. But before I finally close the door on the podcast, I want to come full circle. I ask what may be the biggest question I have ever attempted: can I make contact with the energy or consciousness we know as Jesus? Rather than travelling to a cathedral or some grand religious location, I find myself sitting on a bench beside the Rhine, surrounded by nature, facing east and simply trusting my instincts. It feels somehow more appropriate than any church or monument—a simple setting for what is the final and most extraordinary experiment of the entire series. I explore the Gospel of Philip and other apocryphal writings excluded from the established Biblical canon, asking whether these ancient texts might offer a very different perspective on Jesus, consciousness, life after death and the mysterious beings that may have been part of humanity's religious history from the very beginning. This is the final journey with Talking to the Dead—and perhaps the most ambitious conversation I have ever attempted. The Gospel of Philip and the Ideas I Explore I talk about my discovery of the Gospel of Philip, one of the ancient texts that was not included in the New Testament, and why I find these alternative writings so fascinating.I explore the idea that religious truth may have been far more diverse and mysterious in the earliest days of Christianity than the version that eventually became established by the Church.One of the ideas that particularly interests me is the suggestion that death is not necessarily an ending, but a transition into another state of existence or consciousness.I consider the Gospel of Philip's emphasis on spiritual awakening and inner knowledge—the idea that understanding the divine may not simply come through following religious rules or institutions, but through personal experience and transformation.I explore the possibility that the Kingdom of Heaven is not simply somewhere we go after death, but something that may already exist around us and within us, although we may not yet be capable of perceiving it.I reflect on the idea that resurrection may be more than a single future event. It may represent an awakening or transformation of consciousness that can begin during life itself.I discuss the importance of overcoming the separation between the physical and spiritual worlds, and the possibility that what we call life and death may simply be different aspects of a much larger reality.I also consider the Gospel of Philip's mysterious approach to Christ and the nature of Jesus, and whether the Christ consciousness could represent something larger than the historical figure described by conventional Christianity.These ideas connect strongly with themes I have explored throughout Talking to the Dead: that consciousness may survive physical death, that reality may contain dimensions we cannot normally perceive, and that humanity may be far more connected to a larger spiritual reality than we currently understand.Have we spent thousands of years building religions around Jesus while perhaps losing sight of the deeper and more personal message he was trying to communicate?Put aside the churches, the traditions and the expectations, and simply sit in nature and attempt to make my own direct connection with whatever consciousness, intelligence or energy may lie behind the figure we know as Jesus Christ.

    Episode 99: The Dark Secrets of Germany's Witch Trials

    In this episode, I share an extraordinary experience from a spiritual retreat in the ancient volcanic region of Manderscheid, Germany. What began as a peaceful walk through a quiet medieval town quickly became a powerful journey into the echoes of one of Europe's darkest chapters. As I explored local churches, castles, and forgotten pathways, I was overwhelmed by intense impressions of suffering, fear, and loss. Guided by intuition and historical research, I uncovered the tragic story of the witch trials that swept through this region between the 16th and 17th centuries, claiming hundreds of lives. Join me as I investigate the connection between place, memory, and spirit, exploring how persecution, fear, and injustice can leave lasting imprints on the landscape. Along the way, I reflect on the lives of those accused of witchcraft, the social forces that drove the hunts, and a moving spiritual encounter that seemed to bridge the centuries. A haunting blend of history, paranormal investigation, and personal reflection, this episode asks an enduring question: do the voices of the past still speak to us today?

    Episode 98: Freemasonry: What If Humanity Forgot Something Important?

    In this episode of Talking to the Dead, I dive deep into one of the most controversial and fascinating subjects in modern conspiracy culture: Freemasonry, secret societies, hidden knowledge, ancient civilizations, occult rituals, and the possibility of interdimensional beings. Why do powerful and intelligent men still gather in secret lodges in 2026 to perform ancient rituals, swear oaths, preserve symbolic traditions, and maintain strict secrecy? Is Freemasonry really just a charitable fraternity, or could there be deeper layers hidden beneath the public image? I explore the official Masonic narrative alongside the claims made by critics, conspiracy researchers, occult writers, and alternative historians. We discuss: The hidden origins of FreemasonryThe Knights Templar connectionAncient Egypt and pyramid mysteriesLost civilizations and forbidden technologySacred geometry and symbolic architectureJabulon, Lucifer allegations, and occult symbolismAleister Crowley and ceremonial magicSecret knowledge and elite initiationInterdimensional beings and ritual contact theoriesAncient aliens, hidden consciousness, and forgotten historyDrawing from books like Born in Blood by John J. Robinson, The Architects of Deception by Jüri Lina, and The Complete Idiot’s Guide to Freemasonry by Brent Morris, I unpack the competing narratives surrounding one of the world’s most mysterious organizations. This episode explores the blurred line between history, symbolism, spirituality, conspiracy theory, psychology, and the enduring human suspicion that reality may contain hidden layers we are not meant to see. If you’re interested in Freemasonry, ancient mysteries, occult history, secret societies, UFO phenomena, interdimensional theories, hidden elites, or alternative history, this is an episode you won’t want to miss.

    Episode 97: Scientology: Inside the Invisible Self: The Secret Levels of Consciousness

    In this episode, I take a deep dive into Scientology—one of the most unusual and controversial belief systems of the modern world. I explore how it began with L. Ron Hubbard and his ideas about the human mind, and how it developed into a full spiritual framework built around the concept of the thetan, an immortal self that exists beyond the body. As I look closer, I break down how Scientology describes consciousness not as something produced by the brain, but as something ancient and independent, something that has lived through countless past lives and carries hidden layers of experience. I also explore the practice of auditing, where followers try to clear these hidden mental imprints in order to reach higher states of awareness. But as the teachings expand, so does the mystery. I examine the more controversial ideas found in advanced levels of Scientology—ideas about cosmic history, ancient civilizations, and interpretations of reality that go far beyond everyday human experience. These are the beliefs that often spark debate, confusion, and criticism from those outside the movement. Finally, I look at the wider controversy surrounding Scientology itself, from accusations of secrecy and control to its long and complicated relationship with governments and public institutions around the world. By the end of the episode, I’m left with a question that doesn’t have an easy answer: is Scientology a structured path to spiritual freedom, or a system that reflects how far belief can stretch when it tries to explain everything?

    Episode 96: Demons in the Machine? The Hidden Reality Behind UFOs

    In this episode of Talking to the Dead, I take a deep dive into one of the most disturbing and thought-provoking interpretations of the UFO phenomenon, drawing heavily from Final Events by Nick Redfern. What I found isn’t the usual narrative about extraterrestrial visitors—it’s something much stranger, and honestly, far more unsettling. As I unpack the book, I explore the claim that a hidden faction within the intelligence world—referred to as the “Collins Elite”—came to believe that UFOs aren’t spacecraft at all. Instead, they may be manifestations of non-human intelligences that have been interacting with us for centuries, appearing in forms that match our expectations—whether that’s angels, demons, or now, aliens. I also get into the connections Redfern draws between modern UFO encounters and historical occult figures like Aleister Crowley and Jack Parsons, and why those links, however speculative, are so compelling. When I look at alien abduction reports through this lens, the patterns start to feel less like science fiction and more like something psychological—or even symbolic. But what really stuck with me is how this all challenges the core idea behind the Disclosure movement. I’ve always assumed that if something is being hidden, it’s extraterrestrial technology or contact. This book forced me to consider a different possibility: what if the truth is being withheld because it doesn’t fit any clear category at all? I don’t claim to have answers in this episode. If anything, I walk away with more questions than I started with. But if you’re willing to sit with the uncertainty, this is a conversation that might change how you think about UFOs—and what they could actually represent.

    Episode 95: The Kybalion: The 7 Hidden Laws of Reality.

    What if reality isn’t random… but governed by hidden laws? In this episode of Talking to the Dead, I explore the mysterious teachings of The Kybalion — a cryptic Hermetic text that claims to reveal the underlying principles shaping existence itself. From the idea that “The Universe is Mental” to the subtle forces of vibration, polarity, rhythm, and cause and effect — this episode is a slow, immersive journey into the mechanics of reality as seen through ancient esoteric philosophy. This isn’t about belief. 
It’s about perception. I break down all seven Hermetic principles connecting them to your inner world, your patterns, and the unseen structures influencing everyday life. If you’ve ever wondered: * Are thoughts more powerful than they seem? * Why do patterns repeat in life? * Is there a hidden order behind chaos? This episode invites you to explore those questions… Just observation.
 Just awareness. And maybe — a different way of seeing.

    Episode 94: Demons or Aliens? Exorcism, Angels, and the Hidden War for Your Mind.

    In this episode, I dive deep into one of the most unsettling questions I’ve come across—are demons real, and could they be behind what we call aliens, UFOs, and paranormal encounters? I explore the teachings of Catholic exorcists like Father Chad Ripperger, breaking down how demons, angels, and spiritual warfare are described as real, active forces influencing human thoughts, behavior, and even the direction of the modern world. I look at how possession, oppression, and temptation are understood within this framework—and why some believe these forces are more present now than ever. I also trace the origins of demons and fallen angels through ancient texts like the Book of Enoch, including the story of the Watchers and the Nephilim, and how these ideas shaped modern demonology. From there, I examine the claim that UFO sightings, alien abductions, and interdimensional beings may not be extraterrestrial at all—but spiritual deceptions. This episode connects exorcism, demons, angels, Catholicism, the paranormal, and end times thinking into one dark and thought-provoking narrative. Topics I cover:exorcism, demons, angels, fallen angels, spiritual warfare, Father Chad Ripperger, Catholicism, possession, oppression, UFOs, aliens, interdimensional beings, Book of Enoch, Watchers, Nephilim, paranormal, supernatural, end times, good vs evil Volume One.

    In this live episode in Südbahnhof area of Cologne, I explore Genesis Breyer P-Orridge, Thee Psychick Bible, and the radical network of Thee Temple ov Psychick Youth. From Throbbing Gristle to Psychic TV, I examine how art, music, and ritual were used to reshape belief, identity, and culture—and how those ideas now influence media, technology, and people in positions of power. I also connect these concepts to consciousness after death, religion, and theories of non-human intelligence, including the work of Jacques Vallée. A focused, in-depth look at how fringe ideas became the foundation of modern reality, advertising, social media algorithms, and our modern media communications. Volume One.
