Johnny Burke is the host of the Closer To Venus Podcast; a show that was created to explore the non-physical world in an attempt to answer existential questions that traditional religious beliefs can not. He also plays guitar for The Mansions and Black Box Traders. In this episode Johnny shares some mind-blowing stories from his guests, including a man who was a police detective who verified memories from a past-life regression, and a famous verified NDE (Near Death Experience) case. He also shares some pretty amazing personal experiences he has had, how religion and some of the worst of politics inspired him to start the Closer to Venus Podcast. Liz and Johnny discuss their thoughts on whether or not anyone is evil, the strongest evidence of an afterlife, and their mutual hatred of a certain pseudo-politician who they refuse to even mention by name.

One of the first times he found himself out of body and out of his home, he “floated” along the street and into a home. He checked the house, including the name on a letter and the address. He did not know these people and had never been in their home. When he checked the name against the address it was accurate. That was one of many times he verified that he was actually out of body. He had a few other remarkable experiences, including an emotionally powerful experience where he witnessed and predicted a tragedy. about a week before it occurred He also witnessed a second tragedy right after it occurred, although it was nowhere near him, and had not yet made the news. When Graham participated in lab experiments on OBE’s and psychic phenomena, getting the highest score that researcher Rupert Sheldrake, Ph.D. had ever seen. He has also participated in research with Dean Radin and at The Rhine Research Center. Science, verifying his OBE experiences and attempting to learn and research the mechanism and explanations behind OBE's is his priority.

Paul H. Smith, Remote Viewer with the US Army Star Gate Project describes his time as a "psychic spy" in the US Army Remote Viewing Program, named the Star Gate Project, which he joined in 1984. (Star Gate was officially declassified in 1994.) Remote Viewing is a learned skill where a person can get information about an event or location using ESP or psychic information. During Paul's assignment with the US Army, he was trained by the founders of Remote Viewing, Ingo Swann and Dr. Harold E. Puthoff at SRI-International (Stanford Research Institute). Paul shares some remarkable and highly evidential Remote Viewing sessions he witnessed, in which the US Army Remote Viewers got specific details of locations and what was being built in those locations. He also shares a few remarkable times he got very accurate information, including a time he (and others) got precognitive information - meaning information about the future - about an event that had not yet happened. He discusses ways Remote Viewing has been applied to the everyday real world, such as betting and investing, as well as used by police and detectives. Remote Viewing has also been used to view outer space where Ingo Swann got details that were later verified. If you have ever heard that Star Gate was not successful, Paul will explain why it was actually closed and why that is not true. This episode with a logical-minded, well-respected Retired US Army Major who discusses factual situations where he and other people seemingly defined the laws of space and time, will make you question what you think you know. No matter how science-minded you are. Paul currently teaches classes on Remote Viewing (anyone can learn this technique!). You can find the details on his website, Remote Viewing Instructional Services. He also wrote books on the topic The Essential Guide to Remote Viewing: The Secret Military Remote Perception Skill Anyone Can Learn and Remote Perception: Basic Operational Training. His book is also available on Amazon kindle and paperback. In This Episode: - Paul H. Smith was recruited to be a remote viewer for the US Military program, the Star Gate Project - What is Remote Viewing (RV) - In Star Gate Paul was a psychic spy who used his consciousness to spy on foreign threats - What is Star Gate RV military program - What were some remarkable successes of Star Gate RV - A Star Gate remote viewer accurately described a foreign submarine, including the launch date (information that was secret and he could not have known) - RVers accurately sketched a foreign location given only coordinates - RV terms Target, Mental Noise - RV is s skill anyone can learn - Different kinds of RV - RV shows that time and consciousnesses do not act as we think - Paul perceived an event very accurately before it happened  - Paul shares his most detailed and remarkable session - How did Paul get involved in Star Gate. - Paul was skeptical of anything ESP-related but Star Gate changed his mind - Why was Star Gate closed - Statisticians examined the operational data of Star Gate - Are the military and CIA still using RV - Do Police and detectives use RV - How does RV work for investing and betting  - What is Associated Remote Viewing (ARV) and how to do it properly  - What percent do remote viewers get accurate - Do people successfully invest with RV - What does it mean about time that you can RV the past and future - How successfully can you RV the past and future  - Will NASA use RV - Ingo Swann was able to get accurate information RVing outer space  Full notes on Psychic Military Spies, US Army Star Gate Project, and Remote Viewing with Paul H.

What are my thoughts on manifesting? I recently was a speaker at a group summit "Swey to Success" on using spirituality to grow success. I personally don't consider myself especially spiritual although I study and explore topics like an afterlife and remote viewing. If they all prove to be true, I see it more as science than spirituality. Manifesting is a popular topic now and I have lots of thoughts on that...

While Steve had owned an advertising agency and has written best-selling books, both fiction and non-fiction, on many other topics such as novels and business management books, afterlife evidence has always been a main topic of curiosity for him. Raised in a science-minded materialist family, he was astounded when had an OBE (Out of Body Experience,) possibly an NDE (Near Death Experience) one night when he was twenty-five. This experience, along with some books he discovered around this time opened up a whole new world to him. He also hosted a podcast in the early days of podcasting, where he talked with people such as Dr. Jim Tucker and Dr Julie Beischel. His books discuss the same people - serious science-minded afterlife researchers from places such as DOPS - Division of Perceptual Studies at University of Virginia. In This Episode: - When he was twenty-five, Steve had a terrible flu which lead to a brief OBE, possibly an NDE. - He was raised in a science-minded materialist family, so this was a life-changer for him. - He joined a group called the Rosicrucianism Order, which added to his current understanding of consciousness - He had a podcast where he got to speak with people studying survival of consciousness, such as people from the Division of Perceptual Studies in UVA - Dr. Raymond Moody's book, "Life After Life," helped further his thought that there was an afterlife and understand what hd happened to him -  He had lost his father when he was young - Steve ended up experiencing many synchronicities that furthered his explorations - He does think that reincarnation is part of the explanation - Drs. Ian Stevenson and Jim Tucker who studied/study cases of kids with past-life memories - The researchers at UVA Division of Perceptual Studies and the history of DOPS - Carl Jung and synchronicities - Dr. Julie Beuschel and the research being done by the Windbridge Research Center - Skip Atwater and Remote Viewing - The Monroe Institute - Lynne McTaggart and Henry Stamp and their research - Physics and the splits particle experiment And more...
