Original air date was approximately February 2016. Rich Merrick comes on  our show to discuss his latest book, The Venus Blueprint. Notes follow.

“Our interview with Stuart Mitchell was  interesting about all those cymatics on the ceiling, ” said Joe Bill.  “Yeah,” said Melissa, “there is a lot of stuff in Rosslyn. Rich Merrick  wrote an entire book on the subject. Hey, you know what would be very  awesome? If we could have Rich on the show and he could discuss what he  found at Rosslyn! You better get your reading hat on, Joe Bill!”       I

In this interview with Rich Merrick, Joe Bill and Melissa are  transported back in time to what may well be the beginning of all  religion. Rich Merrick tells the two all about sound and how it has  worked through the ages and specifically how it affected Rosslyn Chapel  in its design. The etiology of this harmonic theory is traced all the  way back to the Vedic philosophies of India. Likewise, we learn what  rules governed music in the Catholic church, and why. This is one  fascinating interview you will not want to miss!

“Musicians are dropping like flies  lately–especially magical ones,” said Joe Bill. “Yes, everything is  becoming highly surreal,” said Melissa. “You know what that means, don’t  you?” asked Joe Bill. “It’s time for us to do a podcast linking all  these things up.” “Hey, you know what? It is nearly St. Sulpice day,”  said Melissa. “Sure enough. I wonder if it all relates?” asked Joe Bill.   Somewhere outside of both Joe Bill and Melissa the faint sound of a  sucking wormhole was audible.      

 In this episode Joe Bill and Melissa explore the notion that  David Bowie and Alan Rickman were mass consciousness sacrifices relating  to a very old ritual performed in France specifically by the  Merovingians but likely long before them. Astrology charts are  discussed, along with some decidedly esoteric points of mysticism and  astrology. Get ready to go off on a wild ride that will push your  consciousness to either expand or explode, or possibly both.

Original air date was approximately January 2016. Stuart, at this time,  was not diagnosed with cancer which would later kill him. Original notes  follow.

“Stuart would be a good guest. He decrypted  Rosslyn chapel. He is heavily involved in cymatics and music. He even  made his own CD,” said Melissa. “Yeah, I agree, he does seem to be a  good fit. Much better than Mr. T.  Still though, I pity the fool that  does not have Mr. T on their podcast,” said Joe Bill. Or, maybe not. It  sounds quasi-likely though, don’t you think?       

“Stuart turns your DNA into music,” said Melissa. “WTF?” asked Joe Bill.       “Also, Stuart turned the Shroud of Turin into DNA music as well,” said Melissa. “WTF?” again asked Joe Bill.

Nearly Sacred Episode 1 The Beginning Of It All

Nearly Sacred Episode 1 The Beginning Of It All

Original air date was approximately December of 2015. Little did we know  what we would soon unleash. Read the show notes for original write up.

“You know what I think we need for the New Year? A  podcast.” I can’t remember if I, Joe Bill Schirtzinger,  said  this, or if my wife, Melissa Sims, said it. Regardless, one of us said  it–or at least I am pretty sure we did.  Maybe we did not.  That’s gnosis for you. Once you go down the rabbit hole, up and down cease to be  familiar friends and instead become unstable wormholes. You go in in  2016 and pop out in Victorian England and you have to be “okay with  that.”  We were not sure what we were going to talk about, but we had a  pretty good idea that it would have something to do with mysticism and  gnosticism. We do that without trying to do that– regularly. We make a  pop tart, BOOM! Mysteries of the universe are unraveled. So, hand us  microphones, and some “shit” is likely to get “real”.  In this episode we cover everything from a strange portal over  CERN, to David Bowie, to the disappearance of the Goddess virtually  from all religion everywhere. We try to have fun along the way.  Everything is sacred, but not THAT sacred. Mostly so. So tune in, turn  on, and like, drop out man, and get ready for your podcast playing  apparatus to suck you down some god-forsaken avenue.
