Rudy is a pre-eminent expert on black holes and a world-renowned Astrophysicist from Harvard, practising in the field since the mid-1960s. He is also the co-Founder of FREE / CCRI (see co-Founder past guests Rey Hernandez & Mary Rodwell) and also the Editor in Chief of the Journal of Cosmology. We dive into the burning of libraries and conservatories, the magic of operatic music, composition, intent and emotions - and accessing history and the potential future from the black hole. We talk about the ultimate cosmic intelligence, the purpose of the universe, the “sponsoring” of the “big G” of our universe of universes, the limiting of the size of the black holes by the quantum field, and the limitations of math. And, there’s more (as always) … Rudy goes on to describe the agreement he had with Dr. Edgar Mitchell before he died in 2016, the rewiring of the brain after the exposure of light from UFOs and a device that was developed by colleagues which he helped test “to the limits” to detect consciousness beyond the grave. … to be continued… Movie - A Tear In the Sky (Caroline Cory) - https://www.imdb.com/title/tt15120486/ Previous episodes/discussions referenced in this podcast episode with Rudy: Dr. Diane Hennacy (ep 113) – Psychiatrist / Author Dr. Dean Radin (122) – Chief Scientist, Institute of Noetic Sciences (IONS) Kevin Day (ep171) – Ret US Navy Rudy, Center for Astrophysics – https://www.cfa.harvard.edu/ Journal of Cosmology - https://thejournalofcosmology.com/About.html Personal website - http://www.rudyschild.com/ List of Published papers - https://ui.adsabs.harvard.edu/search/p_=0&q=author%3A(%22schild%2Cr%22)&sort=date%20desc%2C%20bibcode%20desc CCRI (Consciousness & Contact Research Institute) - https://agreaterreality.com/ Book (co-Author with Suzy Hansen) – Dual Soul Connection: The Alien Agenda for Human Advancement: https://www.amazon.com/Dual-Soul-Connection-Agenda-Advancement/dp/0473295644/ref=sr_1_1?crid=3J7YBLDXEL5H8&keywords=Dual+Soul+Connection%3A+The+Alien+Agenda+for+Human+Advancement&qid=1706573177&sprefix=dual+soul+connection+the+alien+agenda+for+human+advancement%2Caps%2C214&sr=8-1 Book: Beyond UFOs: The Science of Consciousness & Contact with Non Human Intelligence - https://www.amazon.com/Beyond-UFOs-Science-Consciousness-Intelligence/dp/1721088652/ctoc Edgar Mitchell Book: The Way of the Explorer: An Apollo Astronaut’s Journey Through the Material and Mystical Worlds - https://www.amazon.com/Way-Explorer-Astronauts-Material-Mystical/dp/0399141618 NASA – Stratospheric Observatory For Infrared Astronomy “SOFIA” - https://science.nasa.gov/mission/sofia/

To give to the Behind Greatness podcast, please visit here: https://behindgreatness.org. As a charity, tax receipts are issued to donors Welcome back to Behind Greatness. Today we are speaking with Dimitry from his office in Estonia. In this conversation we are treated to a battle-ridden, caterpillar to butterfly story. Dimitry brings us through his ideas formed through his experience living under a Communist regime to a zealous video gaming obsession to selling books door-to-door to building a truly international bespoke fashion house. Along the way, we learn about the power of “being delusional”, the skills learned to diffuse a bomb and how to make yourself allergic to shrimp. We discuss growing up in a system where lying is the tool of ruling , the predictability of seduction, being more interesting, the right dose of desperation, creativity of the entrepreneurial mind and the power of being at chaos’ edge. Warning: hard lessons to be learned here. Have a listen to a bad-ass who lived under incarceration in a communist regime: Luis Zuniga (ep 115).

Welcome back to Behind Greatness! We’re back with another fun episode with a fun guy – actor, Sergio Di Zio. What don’t we talk about here? Sergio brings us through the moment where the “pope” declared that he become an actor at age 18. We hear about a once painfully shy kid who uses audacity, the monster at the end of the book and letting go of story to carve through the universe and to be delightfully entangled within it. We talk destroying and building lives. We talk piercing words of a loving father raking leaves. We talk Brando and his cat and we talk Jeff Daniels and his empathic laugh. We talk Elisa. And we talk love as home. Let’s go!! See episodes with trauma expert Dr Gabor Mate (ep 143) … Exorcist John Szada (ep 174) … Actors: Enrico Colantoni (ep2), Giacomo Gianniotti (ep 29), Ken Choi (ep 66) and Amy Jo Johnson (ep 92) To give to the Behind Greatness podcast, please visit here: https://behindgreatness.org.

He is also the co-Founder of FREE / CCRI (see co-Founder past guests Rey Hernandez & Mary Rodwell) and also the Editor in Chief of the Journal of Cosmology. Rudy brings us through a discussion on various cosmic topics: the earth’s giant radio telescope, that we can now see the character of the black hole for the 1st time, and an explanation on why our classical definition of the black hole is now proven to be incorrect (congruent with his theory from decades ago). We hear about the significance of interstellar dust samples, biological material in space and plants spilling out their DNA. Rudy further tickles us with his thoughts on the quantum attribute of space that records what we say and think and his thoughts on the inside-out black hole: the distant horizon. And in case you’re wondering, we get to the “G-word” and the possibility of a supreme being.

We are joined today by Shehnaz Soni. Shehnaz is an Aerospace engineer for NASA and is currently working on the 1st ever human landing system – slated to be part of the Artemis moon mission in 2026. We are immediately touched by Shehnaz’s sparkle. She has a marvelous story that starts with a closed religious upbringing, to an arranged marriage, to a desperate situation in a new country to an education that led her to reach for the stars - literally. But, that’s just a small slice of this Rocket Scientist. We dive into many a topic: her quantum coaching, NASA’s lunar regulate harvest missions for travel to Mars, non-human intelligence interfering at launches, intuition and light, NPCs, the grocery store as a playground and a boundary-less existence of being.

We’re speaking with Chris Lowe today from his office at California State, Long Beach. Chris is also the Director of The Shark Lab and has been studying shark for over 30 years. We talk about sharks as the new dinosaurs, his life-long fascination with them, the understanding their mysterious lives and the importance of “drilling in and zooming out”. He shares stories about sharks at play, sharks at Thanksgiving and sharks as precise and sentient beings. We talk Great Whites, hammerheads, sleepers and cookie-cutters and having scientists train in translating their work for the public - a reminder of scientists’ important role in serving humanity. A fun talk with a fun guy about a fun topic. See episode 94 with Julie Church for another pioneer of the sea.

We are back with Jeffrey for a part 2 in our discussion. Jeffrey holds the J. Newton Rayzor Chair in Philosophy and Religious Thought at Rice University, where he served as the Associate Dean of the School of Humanities (2019-2023) and chaired the Department of Religion for eight years. We delve into the Archives of the Impossible – a project that he began in 2014 at Rice University that now holds over 1 million documents. We talk about his very profound out of body experience, the “great big magnet in the sky”, dreams, and our culture both informed and “broken down” by impossible events. We hear about Jeffrey’s thoughts on the trickery of the paranormal and the cultural placebo effect that is religion and our unwillingness to own our divinity. We visit belief v thought and revisit the discussion on the “third space”. The impossibility of translation of one type of consciousness to another … non human intelligence being perhaps us … being the mask … and the superhuman. We recommend a listen to Diana Pasulka (ep 142), Werner Barkhuizen (ep 162), Scarlett Heinbuch (ep 164) and Mike Clelland (ep 176).

Welcome back to Behind Greatness. We sat down with Matthew Roberts at his home on the East Coast and we were treated with a thoughtful talk on a fascinating subject. Matthew worked in the US Navy as a Cryptologist for 16 years where he spent many years working on encryption/decryption communication process to catch the bad guys the world round. He is also recognized as being featured in Episode 1 of the 2023 Netflix series Encounters. Starting in 2015 he began to have a series of fascinating profound personal experiences after being on board the USS Roosevelt during the famous Gimbal and the Go Fast events. The Navy later described these events as incursions by unidentified aerial phenomena into military training ranges. These events completely changed the course of Matthew’s life, who had been a life-long atheist up to this point in his life. We learn about his journey of self-discovery, the subsequent opening up of his world view and his exploration of our place in the cosmos. Amongst the several themes in this episode, we discuss his insight on humanity’s lack of insight on evolution beyond us, the dead-end nature of our materialistic western mindset, what he thinks non-human intelligence is trying to communicate and the significance of “picking at the edges of human perception”. See episodes with Ryan Graves (ep 141) and Kevin Day (ep 171) to hear about more experiences from other former US Navy servicemen. See also the session we had with Dr. Steven J. Dick, Astrobiologist and former Chief Historian at NASA (ep 150).

We sit down with Dr. Garry Nolan at his home in California. Garry is an Immunologist, an academic, an inventor and patent holder and a business executive. Dr. Nolan holds the Rachford and Carlotta A. Harris Endowed Chair in the Department of Pathology at Stanford University School of Medicine. We pack this conversation with Garry’s practice on focusing on the data to provide the conversation piece with other scientists and the public. We talk about Garry’s personal experiences when he was younger and how they serve as fuel to his scientific inquiry. He elaborates on the importance for him in hiding his long term intent behind a cloak of real science. We hear about his research in a Harvard lab on the basal ganglia, prompted by earlier work done with Kit Green and high functioning remote viewers and intuition. We learn from him about doing science best with asking the Zen question - so that the answer will always move you forward. And, we hear a refreshing perspective on speculation of the non-human intelligence question and that “something behind the scenes”. As a life-long question-maker, he also shares with us the type of person he honours and why. Why? Because ‘why’ is the answer. That’s why.   Garry, Bio: https://med.stanford.edu/profiles/garry-nolan SOL Foundation: https://thesolfoundation.org/ Youtube: SOL Foundation Talk : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7UW1jyN2o8A Interview with Ross Coulthart: https://youtu.be/XR0JtbuLhPo?si=OHvvhH4PoJcK1OUT SALT Talk: https://youtu.be/e2DqdOw6Uy4?si=TgmtKiYBNRoW96pd X: @garrynolan See episode with Diana Pasulka (ep 142). Garry is also “James” in Diana’s book American Cosmic

Rudy is a pre-eminent expert on black holes and a world-renowned Astrophysicist from Harvard, practising in the field since the mid-1960s. He is also the co-Founder of FREE / CCRI (see co-Founder past guests Rey Hernandez & Mary Rodwell) and also the Editor in Chief of the Journal of Cosmology.   We begin in the deep end with Rudy on this talk. We discuss his research experience and scientific exploration and the modern realities of getting ahead of the current science. He describes how the current belief in dark matter is incorrect, his discovery of the cluster of planets, the importance of MECOs (magnetospheric eternally collapsing objects) vs the classical definition of black holes. And that’s just the start. We discuss his friend’s (astronaut) Edgar Mitchell’s mystical experience in space in the 1970s, his desire to get NASA explore this with him, the experience of shared animal and human consciousness in space, our thoughts in the quantum field and the importance of empathy as a driver for the universe. We discuss Rudy’s desire for academics to mathematically study the lights emitted by ufos and for establishing intellectual academic research studies in this field, his belief in non-human intelligence and the wish that we open our minds to the wisdom of the universe.   … to be continued…   See earlier episodes with Rudy’s FREE/CCRI co-Founders Rey Hernandez (ep 153, 154) & Mary Rodwell (ep 149).
