NLS 132: Rebel, Artist, Hollywood Legend & Revolutionary with Edward James Olmos

NLS 132: Rebel, Artist, Hollywood Legend & Revolutionary with Edward James Olmos

Our guest today is 80s star, multiple-awards film, and theater actor, and activist, Edward James Olmos.

Olmos’s roles in films or TV shows like Stand and Deliver, Battlestar Galactica, broadway musical and film Zoot Suit, Blade Runner as detective Gaff, and many others are some of the most memorable of all time and he’s still dominating our screens.

While I could not resist talking about his iconic roles over several decades, we mainly discussed Olmos’ new must-see film, Chasing Wonders.

The picturesque Australian/British drama was the official selection at the Adelaide film festival in 2020. The beautiful cinematography of the film was shot over a five years period to authentically capture the coming of age story by screenwriter, Judy Morris. Chasing Wonders is a story of hope, possibility adventure, and overcoming your past – a heart-warming story of a young boy, who, encouraged by his grandfather (Olmos) to live a life of hope and possibility, takes off on the adventure of a lifetime to find the magical Emu Plains. His journey through the lush landscapes of Australia and Spain leads him to the heart of the human condition – learning to acknowledge the complexity of what comes before us but struggling not to be defined by the past.

The Hollywood Walk of Famer earned an Academy nomination for Best Actor in the 1988 drama, Stand and Deliver. He gave a stellar lead performance as Bolivian- American educator Jaime Alfonso Escalante Gutiérrez.

Olmos filmography is quite extensive. Literally, the man has stayed booked and busy since 1974. He’s appeared in over 130 films, TV shows, and plays.

One of his outstanding roles is perhaps, Lieutenant Martin Castillo in the Miami Vice (1984) as a series regular. A fan-favorite for sure.

But if we do talk about Lieutenant Castillo we must mention Olmos’ role as Detective Gaff in Blade Runner (1982) and a brief reprise in the sequel Blade Runner 2049 (2017). Gaff is the Los Angeles police officer who detains and escorts Deckard (Harrison Ford) throughout his mission as a ‘Blade Runner’ to track down bioengineered humanoids known as replicants and terminally “retire” them.

Olmos showed the world his versatility in both the Broadway play and film adaptation of the musical comedy, Zoot Suit. The story weaves the real-life events of the Sleepy Lagoon murder trial – resulting in the racially fueled Zoot Suit Riots throughout Los Angeles. Olmos portrays El Pachuco, an idealized Zoot Suiter, who functions as narrator throughout the story and serves as Henry’s conscience in both adaptations.

Honestly, I could go on and on down Olmos’ filmography, but we can’t spotlight all of his other spectacular films right now. So, let’s get into this interview, shall we?

Don’t forget to click the links in the show notes to watch Chasing Wonders.

Please enjoy my conversation with Edward James Olmos.

FLASHBACK FRIDAYS: REVEALED: The UNTOLD TRUTH About Paramahansa Yogananda's LIFE & MISSION! with Philip Goldberg

FLASHBACK FRIDAYS: REVEALED: The UNTOLD TRUTH About Paramahansa Yogananda's LIFE & MISSION! with Philip Goldberg

In the heart of our spiritual exploration, we often encounter figures whose lives illuminate the path for us all. On today's episode, we welcome Philip Goldberg, a scholar, teacher, and author whose work delves deeply into the life and teachings of Paramahansa Yogananda. With a gentle touch, Philip paints a vivid portrait of Yogananda's journey from the banks of the Ganges to the bustling streets of Boston, bringing ancient wisdom to a new world.Philip Goldberg shared that Yogananda's mission was not just a personal endeavor but a destiny foretold in his youth. His guru recognized the potential in the young Yogananda, preparing him for a monumental task: bringing Kriya Yoga to the West.Philip eloquently explains that Yogananda was destined to transform the spiritual landscape of America, a mission that required immense courage and unwavering dedication.Yogananda's arrival in America in 1920 marked the beginning of a remarkable odyssey. As Philip recounts, the young swami arrived with little more than his spiritual fervor and the blessings of his lineage. Despite initial struggles, including cultural shock and racial prejudice, Yogananda's teachings began to resonate with a growing number of Americans. He moved from small gatherings in living rooms to filling symphony halls, his message of inner peace and universal love finding fertile ground in the West.One of the most intriguing aspects of Yogananda's work, as highlighted by Philip, was his ability to bridge Eastern and Western spiritual traditions. Yogananda spoke extensively about Jesus Christ, presenting him as a figure akin to the great sages of India. This inclusive approach allowed many to reconnect with their spiritual roots, seeing Jesus through a new, esoteric lens. Goldberg notes that this was not merely a strategic move but a sincere reverence for all enlightened beings, fostering a deeper spiritual unity.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/next-level-soul-podcast-with-alex-ferrari--4858435/support.Take your spiritual journey to the next level with Next Level Soul TV — our dedicated streaming home for conscious storytelling and soulful transformation.Experience exclusive programs, original series, movies, tv shows, workshops, audiobooks, meditations, and a growing library of inspiring content created to elevate, heal, and awaken.

BONUS MONDAYS: HUMANITY 2.0: Prepare YOURSELF for the NEXT EVOLUTION of MANKIND NOW! with Richard Rudd

BONUS MONDAYS: HUMANITY 2.0: Prepare YOURSELF for the NEXT EVOLUTION of MANKIND NOW! with Richard Rudd

Life, in its magnificent tapestry, often presents us with rare gems of wisdom that illuminate our path and deepen our understanding of existence. On today's episode, we welcome Richard Rudd, a profound thinker and spiritual teacher, renowned for his pioneering work on the Gene Keys—a transformative system designed to unlock the higher purpose hidden in our DNA.Richard Rudd shared his extraordinary journey, which began with a spiritual awakening in his late twenties.One morning, he awoke not just from sleep but into an entirely different state of consciousness, where time and space intertwined in a dance of fractal patterns. "When you're in that state of timelessness, you realize how everything is connected to everything else," he explains, capturing the essence of his revelation. This experience, lasting three days and three nights without sleep or food, laid the foundation for what would eventually become the Gene Keys.The Gene Keys, as Rudd describes, are a set of 64 archetypal energies encoded in our DNA, each representing a unique aspect of our potential. These keys help us navigate through the shadow aspects of our personality, transform them into gifts, and ultimately reach a state of transcendence known as the Siddhi. This system is not merely intellectual; it is an experiential journey that invites us to embrace our inner wisdom through contemplation and self-reflection.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/next-level-soul-podcast-with-alex-ferrari--4858435/support.Take your spiritual journey to the next level with Next Level Soul TV — our dedicated streaming home for conscious storytelling and soulful transformation.Experience exclusive programs, original series, movies, tv shows, workshops, audiobooks, meditations, and a growing library of inspiring content created to elevate, heal, and awaken.

FLASHBACK FRIDAYS: BRACE YOURSELF: Channel REVEALS MAJOR Shifts HAPPENING to HUMANITY in 2024-2030! with Eluña

FLASHBACK FRIDAYS: BRACE YOURSELF: Channel REVEALS MAJOR Shifts HAPPENING to HUMANITY in 2024-2030! with Eluña

On today's episode, we welcome Eluña, a profound channeler who guides us through the transformative shifts humanity is currently navigating. As we sat down to explore the vastness of the universe and the mysteries of our collective consciousness, Eluña brought forth deep insights that resonate on a spiritual level, challenging us to see beyond the illusions of our current reality.The shift, as Eluña explains, is not an abrupt change but a gradual process. We are collectively moving towards a significant transformation in our consciousness, with major shifts predicted around 2030. This evolution is not just a matter of time; it’s a choice we make as a collective. "The shift is gradual. The shift is a process. And those who choose to see that humanity is indeed on a path, this is when the shift can happen," Eluña shared. These words echo the profound truth that our destiny is not predetermined but crafted by our collective awareness and choices.As we delved into the intricacies of past lives, Eluña offered a fascinating perspective. Unlike the linear perception of time we often hold, Eluña views lives as parallel experiences, all occurring simultaneously.This understanding challenges our conventional views, inviting us to see life as a fractal, constantly folding in on itself. This realization opens up a new way of understanding our past, present, and future, not as distinct segments but as interconnected experiences that shape who we are.One of the most striking aspects of our conversation was the exploration of Eluña's past lives, particularly during the times of Lemuria and Atlantis. These ancient civilizations, often shrouded in mystery, were described by Eluña as societies with different focuses—Lemuria on healing and spiritual growth, and Atlantis on technological advancement. The downfall of Atlantis, as she recounts, was rooted in their shift towards a more forceful, will-driven approach, which ultimately led to their demise. This serves as a poignant reminder of the importance of balancing spiritual wisdom with technological power.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/next-level-soul-podcast-with-alex-ferrari--4858435/support.Take your spiritual journey to the next level with Next Level Soul TV — our dedicated streaming home for conscious storytelling and soulful transformation.Experience exclusive programs, original series, movies, tv shows, workshops, audiobooks, meditations, and a growing library of inspiring content created to elevate, heal, and awaken.

BONUS MONDAYS: SURVIVOR of ELITE HUMAN TRAFFICKING Shares Her INSPIRING STORY! Channeling SAVED HER LIFE! with Kaia Ra

On today's episode, we welcome the remarkable Kaia Ra, a beacon of resilience and spiritual insight. Kaia's journey is nothing short of extraordinary, as she navigated the harrowing experiences of elite human trafficking and emerged as a powerful channel for Ascended Masters. Her story is a testament to the human spirit's capacity for survival, transformation, and the relentless pursuit of truth and healing.Kaia's early life was marked by unimaginable challenges. Born into a military program for psychically gifted children, she was subjected to intense training and exploitation. "I believe that I'm alive by the grace of God," Kaia reflects, attributing her survival to her deep connection with Ascended Masters and the angelic orders. This divine connection not only kept her alive but also guided her through the darkest moments of her life.In her early twenties, Kaia began the arduous process of reclaiming her life.Despite being stalked and monitored by handlers from her past, she found solace and strength in yoga and meditation. "Something told me to get my butt into that yoga studio," she recalls. This practice became a lifeline, helping her heal from the deep trauma and regain control over her psychic gifts. Her dedication to self-healing culminated in a profound kundalini awakening at the age of 27, a transformative experience that solidified her spiritual path.Kaia's spiritual mission is embodied in her work with the Ascended Masters, particularly through her book, "The Sophia Code." This book, channeled from divine beings, offers a roadmap for humanity's awakening and empowerment. The Ascended Masters she channels, such as Mother Mary, Isis, and Quan Yin, bring forward teachings that are both ancient and profoundly relevant to today's spiritual seekers. "Enlightenment is simply the decision to look into the light that you are and to never look away," Green Tara shares in the book, emphasizing the simplicity yet profound commitment required for spiritual growth.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/next-level-soul-podcast-with-alex-ferrari--4858435/support.Take your spiritual journey to the next level with Next Level Soul TV — our dedicated streaming home for conscious storytelling and soulful transformation.Experience exclusive programs, original series, movies, tv shows, workshops, audiobooks, meditations, and a growing library of inspiring content created to elevate, heal, and awaken.
