In 2008, Dr. Eben Alexander s brain was severely damaged by a devastating case of bacterial meningitis, and he lapsed into a week-long coma. It was almost certainly a death sentence, but Dr. Alexander miraculously survived and brought back with him an astounding story (told in his best-seller Proof of Heaven: A Neurosurgeon's Journey into the Afterlife). During seven days in coma, he was plunged into the deepest realms of consciousness, and came to understand profound truths about the universe we inhabit. What he learned completely violated everything he ever knew about brain, mind and consciousness, and drove him to question some of the most fundamental assumptions of conventional science, leading to a complete flip from his former worldview. The entire scientific community is facing a similar conundrum: how to explain that consciousness is merely a byproduct of the brain when overwhelming evidence suggests otherwise. Ultimately, direct experience is key to fully understanding how we are all connected through the binding force of unconditional love and its unlimited power to heal. Dr. Alexander will speak about his experience since his NDE and his observations about consciousness, mindfulness, healing and love.

The story of King Arthur is known throughout the world, and is being widely publicized this week with the release of Guy Ritchie's new film on the subject starting Charlie Hunnam. The fabled Camelot, Sir Bedivere casting Excalibur into the lake and Arthur s secret burial at the isle of Avalon: These are just a few of the enchanting themes in the ancient saga that historians have long considered to be pure fantasy. Today Dr. Kelly explores The Lost Tomb of King Arthur with athor Graham Phillips who presents compelling evidence that such legends were actually based on real events. During a quest lasting over twenty-five years, Phillips has followed a fascinating trail of historical clues showing Arthur to have been a living warrior who led the Britons around the year 500. He has discovered that the legendary Camelot, Excalibur and Avalon were based on a real city, a real sword and a real island. And, most astonishing of all, Graham has found what he claims to be the location where Arthur was finally buried. An ancient manuscript still persevered at Oxford University, Graham believes, reveals the whereabouts of King Arthur s long-lost tomb. Not in the South West town of Glastonbury, as the popular myth maintains, but at an ancient site in the isolated countryside of central England. With the help of archaeologists employing the very the latest scientific equipment, Graham now has what he is certain is the final proof that this disregarded Dark Age text really does reveal the last resting place of the man behind the legend of King Arthur. Graham Phillips is a British non-fiction author who has investigated historical mysteries since the 1980s. He has investigated such enigmas as King Arthur, Robin Hood, and the death of Alexander the Great, as well as researched various biblical conundrums such as the Holy Grail and the Ark of the Covenant. Phillips has written fifteen published books on these subjects and has appeared in many broadcast documentaries over the years. He lives in England where he works full-time as what he describes as an "historical detective." Graham Phillips has also been described as a modern-day adventurer, and a real-life Indiana Jones.

Today visionary thinker, futurist and filmmaker Mitch Schultz joins Dr. Kelly to explore humanity as we approach the technological singularity. What is the singularity, and what does it mean for humanity? Explore a transdisciplinary approach at the intersection of the arts, cognitive psychology, deep learning, and philosophy. Guided by Consciousness, Evolution, and Story. Beginning with what conscious state of being (terrestrial and universal) is perceiving. Followed the one constant we can all agree on (or perceive), everything goes through a change process. Lastly, what is the biological/mythological codification that continually unfolds a more complex iteration of reality. Humanity sits poised for a momentous leap in consciousness. Our technology allows us to see further and deeper with every novel invention. At the same time we perceive only a fraction of the universe, and are reminded of our minuscule place in the cosmos. Our language minimizes possibilities, and the potential evolutionary projection. However, our tech reveals novel paradigms and potentially the source code of all creation.

Using an adventure parable approach that has been called part Indiana Jones, part Scott Peck, The Celestine Prophecy created a model for spiritual perception and actualization that resonated with millions of people and focused on the mysterious coincidences that occur in each of our lives. The book quickly climbed to the #1 position on the New York Times bestsellers list, remaining on the list for more than two years. Tune in today to find out what James has been up to since he books, how we can learn from the 12 insights to find hope, peace and spiritual awareness, and what the future might hold for our human spiritual evolution.

Harvey Weinstein, Brett Ratner, Louis CK and James Toback did not respect it. And the women who are now coming forward about their sexual abuse at the hands of these men are only now truly claiming it. It is their SEXUAL SOVEREIGNTY the right to control their own sexual and physical fate not being subject to the demands, the whims, the control or the perversion of others. Do you realize that in no country in the world, nor even the United Nations Human Rights Charter, is there any stipulation that women have the rights to their own bodies, says Dr. Saida D silets, Ph.D. A thought-leader and speaker on the growing edge of researching ways women can use their minds, bodies, and spirits to create richer lives through their sensual selves, Saida serves as a guide to women who believe in transformation as a lifelong path of learning, discovery, and walk to freedom. Saida points to a quote from Hamash Alidina: 'In a society that benefits from your self-doubt, liking yourself is a rebellious act. That s how the term SEXUAL SOVEREIGNTY emerged, she says. It s the full ownership of ourselves and our body and our sensual/sexual nature. It is knowing that no person, institution, organization or government has the right to choose what we do with our pleasure, sensuality, sexuality and fertility. That is ours alone to choose. And now the quest is how to usher in a new path that brings men and women into right relation with each other...where SEXUAL SOVEREIGNTY is the cornerstone for both sexes, and is the foundation for building understanding, respect, compassion and strength. A world where physical or psychological oppression is no more. And #METOO isn t necessary. In today's show, Saida speaks to all of this. Her vision is one of healing and growth for all. Most of all she wants women to feel at home in themselves, where they know they belong and that they matter opening up new levels of freedom, joy, self-confidence and achievement.

As the High Holiday of the Cannabis Calendar (4/20!) is upon us, Dr. Kelly invites NORML s Deputy Director Paul Armentano to share with us his thoughts on the current state of cannabis legalization, policy and scientific efficacy in the US in 2017! What does this year hold for legal cannabis in America? Remember that 4-19 is Take Action Day for cannabis reform day, and you can find out more here: norml.org/act While more Americans than ever before favor the legalization of both recreational and medical cannabis, and over 30 states currently have legal medical dispensary systems, cannabis remains firmly on the DEA s Federal Schedule 1, classified to have no accepted medical value. Adding to this confusion is our new President and Attorney General offering confusing messages about the plant, and about federal involvement in state sanctioned marijuana programs. Today, Mr. Armentano addresses what he describes as the ignorance and political apathy on the part of lawmakers, and political inertia that continues to maintain this flat earth policy regarding federal legalization and scheduling. But what does the science and research really show? Mr. Armentano shares with Dr. Kelly today some of the common misconceptions about cannabis, as well on going research on its public health benefits (including helping curb the opiate epidemic). We also discuss a recent literature review of over 10,000 studies on cannabis shows its efficacy in treating conditions like chronic pain, nausea, epilepsy, MS and more. In this interview, we address the political climate including: What does this new administration hold for cannabis legalization over the next year? What is the current federal legality of CBDs? Will the office of drug czar be abolished? Will state mandated cannabis programs be subject to federal law? Will cannabis ever be removed from Schedule 1, and what will it take for this to happen? How can people get involved at state and federal levels to let their voice be heard? Paul Armentano is the Deputy Director of NORML, the National Organization for the Reform of Marijuana Laws, and also serves as a faculty member at Oaksterdam University. His writing and research have appeared in over 750 publications, scholarly and/or peer-reviewed journals, as well as in more than a dozen textbooks and anthologies.

Today visionary thinker, futurist and filmmaker Mitch Schultz joins Dr. Kelly to explore humanity as we approach the technological singularity. What is the singularity, and what does it mean for humanity? Explore a transdisciplinary approach at the intersection of the arts, cognitive psychology, deep learning, and philosophy. Guided by Consciousness, Evolution, and Story. Beginning with what conscious state of being (terrestrial and universal) is perceiving. Followed the one constant we can all agree on (or perceive), everything goes through a change process. Lastly, what is the biological/mythological codification that continually unfolds a more complex iteration of reality. Humanity sits poised for a momentous leap in consciousness. Our technology allows us to see further and deeper with every novel invention. At the same time we perceive only a fraction of the universe, and are reminded of our minuscule place in the cosmos. Our language minimizes possibilities, and the potential evolutionary projection. However, our tech reveals novel paradigms and potentially the source code of all creation.

The Nine Waves of Creation presents a speculative cosmology supported by the recent discovery that galaxies in the universe are not located randomly, but ordered in a way that radically challenges previous cosmological assumptions. If Calleman's ideas -- which are refreshingly wild but rationally argued -- are even partially correct, today's assumptions about the nature of evolution and the evolution of nature will need to be reconsidered. We will discuss the Birth of the Universe, the Tree of Life, the Mayan Calendar, Human Evolution and more! Carl Johan Calleman is a scientist and philosopher who has devoted his past thirty years to understanding the evolution of life and consciousness based on the Mayan calendar. Born in Stockholm, Sweden he gained a Ph.D. in Physical Biology and spent twenty years doing laboratory research into toxicology and Cancer Research. In this capacity he was a Senior Researcher at the University of Washington in Seattle and has served as an expect for the World Health Organization in addition to giving lectures at places like MIT, Institut Pasteur, Chinese Academy of Preventive Medicine and the National Cancer Institute in Tokyo. In 1994 he left his carrier in the hard sciences behind and started to lecture about one of the greatest mysteries of our time: The Mayan Calendar and has for instance written six books on this topic with the aim of making this accessible to modern people. The most recent books are The Global Mind and the Rise of Civilization (June 2016) and The Nine Waves of Creation Quantum Physics, Holographic Evolution and the Destiny of Humanity (December 2016). His focus has been on explaining both biological and mental evolution up until the current time and beyond. He has also worked with Mayan elders such as Hunbatz Men and Don Alejandro Oxlaj and helped them to get their message out.

In 2008, Dr. Eben Alexander s brain was severely damaged by a devastating case of bacterial meningitis, and he lapsed into a week-long coma. It was almost certainly a death sentence, but Dr. Alexander miraculously survived and brought back with him an astounding story (told in his best-seller Proof of Heaven: A Neurosurgeon's Journey into the Afterlife). During seven days in coma, he was plunged into the deepest realms of consciousness, and came to understand profound truths about the universe we inhabit. What he learned completely violated everything he ever knew about brain, mind and consciousness, and drove him to question some of the most fundamental assumptions of conventional science, leading to a complete flip from his former worldview. The entire scientific community is facing a similar conundrum: how to explain that consciousness is merely a byproduct of the brain when overwhelming evidence suggests otherwise. Ultimately, direct experience is key to fully understanding how we are all connected through the binding force of unconditional love and its unlimited power to heal. Dr. Alexander will speak about his experience since his NDE and his observations about consciousness, mindfulness, healing and love.

This week, Kevin Hancock shares his incredible story that brought him to find himself at the Pine Ridge Reservation in South Dakota. As the national housing market collapsed, and home sales in Maine plummeted by 66%, Kevin struggled to help his company adapt, adjust and survive. The future of one of America s oldest family businesses, and its 450 employees hung in the balance.Then, things got worse. In April of 2008, Hancock lost his voice; his sentences became weak, broken and difficult to hear. Any effort to speak left the company s once vocal leader feeling sore, dizzy, out of breath, and not wanting to say much. Hancock would soon learn that he had acquired spasmodic dysphonia, a rare neurological voice condition for which there is no known cause or cure. As he struggled with the inability to consistently use his normal speaking voice, Hancock worked tirelessly to help guide the company back to strong financial footing as the economy sputtered into recovery. In 2012, compelled by an astrological reading and a lifelong interest in Native American History, he traveled to the impoverished Pine Ridge Indian Reservation in South Dakota. He was moved by the people he met, and the struggles he witnessed there. The bonds he forged at Pine Ridge prompted him to re evaluate the trajectory of his own life including the tribe that had shaped him, and the new future he might create as an individual. There, he learned how to listen to his own voice, and was inspired to develop a new approach to corporate leadership and to life. In Not For Sale: Finding Center in the Land of Crazy Horse, Hancock recounts his journey to Pine Ridge, and shares the lessons he learned there that permanently altered the course of both his life and leadership style. Hancock describes how he learned to listen more, look inward for purpose, strengthen the voices of others and reconstruct his entire sense of identity completely removed from the one that had hinged on being on stage in the spotlight all the time. Hancock s incredible journey has been featured in the New York Times and scores of other publications in Maine and beyond, h ailed by U.S. Senator Angus King, Jr. as part spiritual journey, part moving portrait of some extraordinary people, and part leadership manual... [a] Fascinating book will touch you and teach you on many levels."

She contends that the similarities of the three outweigh the differences. Controversially, Shari Brown believes that there are unifying truths in the three major world religions: Islam, Judaism, and Christianity. Far from being diabolically opposed ideologies fighting each other to the death, the roots of these three beliefs belong to the same tree. By cutting to the heart of the commandments of each religion with the unerring sharpness of a surgeon s scalpel, Shari has laid out the only seven rules you must follow, along with the practical steps that make it possible to achieve happiness and prosperity guaranteed.

The story of King Arthur is known throughout the world. The fabled Camelot, Sir Bedivere casting Excalibur into the lake and Arthur s secret burial at the isle of Avalon: these are just a few of the enchanting themes in the ancient saga that historians have long considered to be pure fantasy. Today Dr. Kelly explores The Lost Tomb of King Arthur with athor Graham Phillips who presents compelling evidence that such legends were actually based on real events. During a quest lasting over twenty-five years, Phillips has followed a fascinating trail of historical clues showing Arthur to have been a living warrior who led the Britons around the year 500. He has discovered that the legendary Camelot, Excalibur and Avalon were based on a real city, a real sword and a real island. And, most astonishing of all, Graham has found what he claims to be the location where Arthur was finally buried. An ancient manuscript still persevered at Oxford University, Graham believes, reveals the whereabouts of King Arthur s long-lost tomb. Not in the South West town of Glastonbury, as the popular myth maintains, but at an ancient site in the isolated countryside of central England. With the help of archaeologists employing the very the latest scientific equipment, Graham now has what he is certain is the final proof that this disregarded Dark Age text really does reveal the last resting place of the man behind the legend of King Arthur. Graham Phillips is a British non-fiction author who has investigated historical mysteries since the 1980s. He has investigated such enigmas as King Arthur, Robin Hood, and the death of Alexander the Great, as well as researched various biblical conundrums such as the Holy Grail and the Ark of the Covenant. Phillips has written fifteen published books on these subjects and has appeared in many broadcast documentaries over the years. He lives in England where he works full-time as what he describes as an "historical detective." Graham Phillips has also been described as a modern-day adventurer, and a real-life Indiana Jones.
