    Downward Facing Dogma: Fascist Yoga and the Grandiose Grifters of "Wellness” with Stewart Home

    Stewart Home, writer, artist, man who can literally stand on his head and recite hia work (which includes cultural commentaries, poems, short stories, essays, and well, if it involves the written word and a radically political bent...Stewart's done it). He's been at it since the early 1980s, born and raised in London, and.... Let's cut to the chase. His book is called "Fascist Yoga: Grifters, Occultists, White Supremacists, and the New Order In Wellness." Yes, an accomplished human being that Greg had never heard of (there are many) wrote a book with that title and if you're under any impression Greg isn't going to interview that guy on his show, you've been listening to too much Jay Shetty. To quote Stewart's description: "In this he sweeps away the lies to tell a new origin story of the world's first modern yogi – a Californian escapologist who added some Hindu fairy dust to gym and circus exercises. ​Ever since the world of yoga has been full of grifters, occultists and white supremacists, all out to exploit and recruit via the medium of exercise." You've just finished saluting the sun and in return, it flipped you the bird. Breathe in, breathe out. A tall glass of truth will do a lot better for you than sniffing that essential oil...

  2. Breakthrough to Breakdown: The Anatomy of a Cult with Kellie Rhea

    Breakthrough to Breakdown: The Anatomy of a Cult with Kellie Rhea

    The Hermetic Principles of Business? The energetic significance in the etymology of the words that make up the building blocks of your existence? How about understanding "Universal Consciousness" to further your journey towards entrepreneurial success?   You might finally understand your "Human Source Code." Yes, you might just be the "unstoppable force particle" that you didn't even realize you were until you soaked yourself in the Laws of Polarity, Correspondence, and Cause and Effect.   .......What in the WTF with Marc Maron are we even talking about?   The return of Kellie Rhea, of course!   Back in 2021, when she was still a top facilitator inside one of the most persuasive personal development organizations around, Kellie came on Open Loops (Episode 88) and delivered a potent, mind-bending dose of esoteric empowerment that left Greg’s neurons spinning like a bumper car on a Tilt-A-Whirl with nowhere to go. ...turns out they didn't.   In this exclusive interview, Kellie returns to dismantle and deconstruct everything she once believed, exposing the insidious way communal narcissism, power dynamics, unregulated healing modalities, groupthink, manufactured awakening, and spiritual sleight-of-hand can combine to entrap even the most earnest seekers in a high-control environment. What happens when a transformational high hits too hard... and never really ends? This isn’t just a story of disillusionment. It’s a forensic breakdown of belief systems gone rogue—told by someone who lived inside the source code... and clawed her way out.   This episode is High-Octane Cognitive Dissonance. It'll throw you. After absorbing the content fully, Greg somehow woke up curled in the fetal position in the crevice of Tony Robbin's jawline.   He's still clawing his way out...

  4. Vibe Séancing: Emotions, Entanglement, and a Unified Theory of the Paranormal with Psychical Researcher John Fraser

    Vibe Séancing: Emotions, Entanglement, and a Unified Theory of the Paranormal with Psychical Researcher John Fraser

    In this must-listen paranormal podcast episode of Open Loops, Greg interviews John Fraser—Council Member of the Society for Psychical Research and author of Paranormal Perspectives: One Big Box of Paranormal Tricks. Together they explore the groundbreaking idea that all paranormal events—from ghosts to poltergeists to UFOs—might stem from a single psychic force within us.   That’s right. No polyamorous forces, Aubrey Marcus. Cool your jets. Fraser, wo has investigated hundreds of cases including the Enfield poltergeist and the Cage haunting in Essex, lays out a compelling scientific and psychological framework. Instead of external entities, he suggests that stress, trauma, and altered states of consciousness may trigger these phenomena. John and Greg discuss hypnotic regression, ESP experiments, false memory formation, and why Fraser believes random event generator technology could be key to proving the paranormal scientifically. This conversation challenges demonology (sorry new Pope), explores the psychology behind ghost sightings, and makes a strong case for a unified paranormal theory. If you’re curious about how consciousness, haunted locations, and poltergeist behavior intersect in a scientifically grounded way and you love how that all wraps together in one sentence optimized for SEO, this is the top fringe science podcast episode of 2025 to hear. 🔗 John’s Links📖 Book: Paranormal Perspectives – One Big Box of Paranormal Tricks   Let Greg know how you like the show.

    What DA Deuce??: Da Vinci, Da Pyramids, Da Pope, and Da True Truths of Da Ancient Wisdom-Keepers with Esoteric Researcher Michael Feeley

    “A lighthouse doesn’t jump in the sea to save ships. It stays lit. Those ready will find it.” —Michael Feeley, this episode As if quoting your guest in the show notes before saying anything else about him isn’t weird enough… brace yourself. Michael Feeley—master of mystic knowledge, symbolic decoder, esoteric researcher, and paranormal/UFO experiencer—joins Greg to discuss his latest book, The Movement: Illumination of the World. A book of forbidden knowledge? Or the title of Epcot’s latest firework spectacle? Greg would’ve taken either. Among other things, they discuss: dream-transmitted quantum physics, UFOs as fractals of self, free energy tech, Da Vinci's hidden role as a dimensional traveler, Vatican hit squads, the Movement of New Templars, DNA as encrypted scripture, the real moon (spoiler: it’s not that one), pyramid antenna theory, ancient Egypt as soul map, the Code of Four, Christ math in the Great Pyramid, and how to out-vibrate the Matrix grid. This episode fires synapses and shapes your subconscious like a kaleidoscopic dream. It’s Mr. Toad’s Wild Ride… where you lick the toad first. (Someone get this Greg guy to Orlando.) 🎧 Listen Now. Your memory depends on it. Feel the pull. Click play. Shine on, starseed.   You’ll remember who you are. You just need to listen first.

    Christopher Nolan’s The Hypnotist: 4D Metaphors & the Multiverse of Inner Change with Hypnotherapist Adam Cox

    INT. SUBCONSCIOUS MIND – NIGHT. A man stares into a spiral. A voice enters the room. The loop begins. What starts as a podcast quickly becomes a paradox: Are you listening… or are you being rewritten? In this psychological-thriller-meets-transformational-masterclass, Greg invites Adam Cox—Harley Street hypnotherapist and host of The Hypnotist podcast—into the Open Loops mind-lab to detonate the outdated constructs of traditional therapy. Together, they explore: 🧠 The ethics of slow therapy vs. single-session transformation 🪞 How metaphors create shortcuts through trauma 🕳️ Why your phobia might just be a poorly written belief from childhood 🌀 Nested loops, identity shifts, and the power of cinematic storytelling 🕰️ What hypnotherapy really has in common with Nolan’s Tenet 🌌 The secret weapon of the subconscious: suggestion without permission Somewhere between memory and imagination, Adam opens a portal. And what emerges isn’t just hypnosis—it’s quantum personal development. You don’t need to understand how it works. You just need to press play. 🎧 One listen. Four dimensions. Infinite suggestions. A mind-bending new episode… Now streaming in your Mind Theatre. Adam's Links: adamcox.co.uk and the podcast The Hypnotist Let Greg know how you like the show.
