BYC #64 – Near Death Experiences
Mainstream science has plenty of incorrect guesses, but no actual answer, for what causes near death experiences. And because science can’t deny that people are having these experiences, NDEs are forcing science to redefine their definition of what death actually is. I came into this project with...

BYC #63 – Christianity: Why I Believe… and, Facing the Tough Questions
Sometimes, our opinions can blind us. There was a time, when I was very angry with the Christian church, and very judgmental of most Christians, and when I had a list of objections to Christianity a mile long. But even when I was there, God still reached out to call me home. I spent 10 years…

BYC #62 – Let’s Talk About the Holidays
I'm recording this episode, and putting it out, on Christmas Eve, because I really felt compelled to do so. Today I needed to spend a few minutes talking about the holidays, and how the expectations the media puts on us don't necessarily reflect reality, and how that can sometimes lead to...

BYC #56 – Stop Arguing With Idiots, Ya Idiot.

BYC #54 – When Words Fall Short
This episode is more of a thought experiment: It began at a meetup group, when I mentioned how weird it was that we have these ancient pyramids, similar in age, construction, and use, all over the world, but from a time when the world was not connected at all. A reply, with a possible link…

BYC #53 – A Case for Cosmic Consciousness
Consciousness is something that has baffled people forever. What is it? Where is it? How do we even define it?

BYC #47 – Perception
What if I told you that the consensus among experts in the neuroscience field is that we do NOT see the world as it truly is, at all? The truth is, we don’t!
