17. The Paranormal Rundown Breakdown - Thomas Campbell and his Big TOE
02:00:11||Season 2, Ep. 17Season 2, Episode 17 is a bit of a different adventure for us. We have decided to break down the concepts presented in a Joe Rogan interview with Thomas Campbell, author of My Big TOE (Theory Of Everything). Campbell is a physicist who began experiencing the paranormal in college. Because of those experiences, he has gone on a life long quest to understand and explain them from a scientific perspective. Through that study and experimentation, he has created a very rich, flushed out theory of how all of life as we know it works. Further, he believes that his theory has sufficient results to answer many of the modern questions between Newtonian and Quantum Physics.We strongly suggest that you watch Joe Rogan's interview of Campbell prior to this episode, in order to get the full context. If not, we do give an overview at the beginning of the show. https://youtu.be/tQR6SFK7lFc?si=mtIRUB-hxrNLUtJMOur overall intent here is to map Campbell's framework and components to our understanding of God, all of Creation, and the many paranormal experiences and concepts we have discussed in the past.Along the way I relate a relevant Near Death Experience of a coworker, Vic rather dubiously declares himself the Best Wordle Player in the World, Father Mike embarks on the First Paranormal Rundown Wordle Intuition Psychic Blocking Experiment, and we discuss topics including Out of Body Experiences, Simulation Theory, Intuition vs Intellect, Creative Uses for Computer Punch Cards, Jesus Christ, The Holy Spirit, World of Warcraft, Leroy Jenkins, What is Hell, Various Paranormal Concepts, The Borg, and more. We really hope you enjoy this breakdown of Thomas Campbell's view of the universe, and our mapping of it to The Paranormal Rundown!Links for Thomas Campbell:https://www.my-big-toe.com/theory/overview-of-my-big-toe/ https://www.cusac.orgPlease contact us at feedback@paranormalrundown.com and let us know what you think of this episode.

16. The First Paranormal Rundown Smackdown
02:30:41||Season 2, Ep. 16Welcome to Season 2, Episode 16 of The Paranormal Rundown! The Gang of Nerds is down to a Duo tonight, just Vic and Dave. So we decided to do something a little different (unusual for us, right?!) Vic is going to take the role of the Atheist, Material Reductionist, and Dave is going to be the Everything is Paranormal, God Loving Hippie. The goal was to debate the possible reality of the topic, and maybe choose a winner. We did have a fairly decent list of paranormal topics, but in true Rundown fashion we only got through Consciousness, a little about the Akashic Record, and a shallow dive into Magick. We also dive into an EVP captured on the last episode with Fr. Justin, and discuss EVPs in general. Along the way we bounce around the subjects of Animal Consciousness, EEG Recorded at Time of Death, Higher Levels of Consciousness, Dolphins, PrayTV, Plant Consciousness, Universal Consciousness, Spooky Action At A Distance - SAAADs, Harry Houdini, Psychics vs Mediums, Remote Viewing, Irrefutable EVPs, Magick, Christian Rituals, Magical Contract Negotiation and Fulfillment, and the Crossroads Demon. Hopefully we did the Gang proud. I am almost certain Sky Daddy lover Dave smacked that Atheist Vic down pretty hard...As always, if you have any questions, comments, or you really liked this episode format, please let us know at feedback@paranormalrundown.comIf you didn't like this show, please let us know twice!!Vic would also like to know your thoughts on Cedric and Avalon. But be careful, Avalon has been know to cause a nightmare or two when offended...Check out our new X account at: https://x.com/ParanormalRundnLeave us a message!The Paranormal Rundown is a partnership between the hosts David Griffith, JJ Johnson, Father Michael Birdsong, and Vic Hermanson.Be sure to check out our partner podcasts:You can find JJ at Southern Demonology, https://www.southerndemonology.comYou can find Vic at Trailer Trash Terrors, https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/vic-hermansonYou can find Father Birdsong at https://www.becomingahouseofprayer.com, as well as hear his new podcast Ending the Curse at:https://open.spotify.com/show/5yL7ZAN4wcRKnMPAlalVXW15. Father Justin Allen - Thinking Outside the Fundamentalist Box
02:25:00||Season 2, Ep. 15Welcome to Season 2, Episode 15 of The Paranormal Rundown! This episode we have Father Justin Allen join us. Fr. Justin is a priest with the Charismatic Episcopal Church, and fellow seminary student with Deacon Josh. His perspective is especially interesting for the Rundown, as he has not spent any significant time in his life thinking deeply on the paranormal or supernatural. We also have a very lively discussion about a green Tupperware lid that materialized in Vic's sink! The main topics discussed are Things Walking Around that are not Human, Mysteries of the Sacraments (especially Confession), Why the Paranormal Frightens Us, and Consciousness. Along the way we touch on Podcast EVPs, Haunted Locations, Types of Ghosts, Unknown vs Unknowable, Alien Abduction and Implants, Alien Baptism, Koko the Gorilla, What is In the Image of God, Consciousness, Personality in the Womb, and Jason the Horse. Fr. Mike is especially frisky on this one, so don't miss out!P.S. - Speaking of Podcast EVPs, be sure to listen closely at 1 Hour, 38 Minutes, and 45 seconds. Whatever is speaking there is on Fr. Justin's channel only, and it doesn't sound much like Fr. Justin...If you have any questions, comments, or you happen to have the bowl that goes with Vic's lettuce keeper lid, please let us know at feedback@paranormalrundown.comThe Paranormal Rundown is a partnership between the hosts David Griffith, JJ Johnson, Father Michael Birdsong, and Vic Hermanson.Be sure to check out our partner podcasts:You can find JJ at Southern Demonology, https://www.southerndemonology.comYou can find Vic at Trailer Trash Terrors, https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/vic-hermansonYou can find Father Birdsong at https://www.becomingahouseofprayer.com, as well as hear his new podcast Ending the Curse at:https://open.spotify.com/show/5yL7ZAN4wcRKnMPAlalVXW14. Father Michael Pacella - The Soulless Mind and The Evidence of Residence
02:27:04||Season 2, Ep. 14Welcome to Season 2, Episode 14 of The Paranormal Rundown! We are down a man or two on this episode, but that is ok, because we have a fantastic guest: Father Michael Pacella! He brings a wealth of knowledge, experience, and ideas to the discussion. Father Michael has experience as a military chaplain, a PhD in Philosophy, experience as an exorcist, and 45 years of ministry. No wonder this conversation was so interesting! We hit the main topics of Satanic Corporate Logos, Alien Minds, and a brief stint on Sex Robots. One thing that each conversation kept coming back to was the Human Soul, from what damages it to what components it is made of. The Soul is definitely something Fr. Michael has thought deeply about. He also relays a personal story of seeing a Principality in the sky. Other topics we hit include Secret Organizations and Exorcism, Syncretism, Critical Thinking, KKK Chaplains, Soul Subversion, The Fifth Column, Demonic Influence in Combat, Soul Repair, The Soulless Mind, Demonic Obsession, Seeing Inside the Possessed, Evidence of Residence, and much more. Enjoy the Show!You can reach Fr. Michael at saintmichaelschurch14@gmail.comYou can find more information on Fr.
