Stewart Home, writer, artist, man who can literally stand on his head and recite hia work (which includes cultural commentaries, poems, short stories, essays, and well, if it involves the written word and a radically political bent...Stewart's done it). He's been at it since the early 1980s, born and raised in London, and....Let's cut to the chase.His book is called "Fascist Yoga: Grifters, Occultists, White Supremacists, and the New Order In Wellness."Yes, an accomplished human being that Greg had never heard of (there are many) wrote a book with that title and if you're under any impression Greg isn't going to interview that guy on his show, you've been listening to too much Jay Shetty.To quote Stewart's description: "In this he sweeps away the lies to tell a new origin story of the world's first modern yogi – a Californian escapologist who added some Hindu fairy dust to gym and circus exercises. ​Ever since the world of yoga has been full of grifters, occultists and white supremacists, all out to exploit and recruit via the medium of exercise."You've just finished saluting the sun and in return, it flipped you the bird.Breathe in, breathe out. A tall glass of truth will do a lot better for you than sniffing that essential oil...Stewart's Links: Purchase the book here - Fascist Yoga: Grifters, Occultists, White Supremacists, and the New Order In Wellnesshttp://www.stewarthome.co.uk/  Let Greg know how you like the show.

The Hermetic Principles of Business? The energetic significance in the etymology of the words that make up the building blocks of your existence? How about understanding "Universal Consciousness" to further your journey towards entrepreneurial success?  You might finally understand your "Human Source Code." Yes, you might just be the "unstoppable force particle" that you didn't even realize you were until you soaked yourself in the Laws of Polarity, Correspondence, and Cause and Effect.  .......What in the WTF with Marc Maron are we even talking about?  The return of Kellie Rhea, of course!  Back in 2021, when she was still a top facilitator inside one of the most persuasive personal development organizations around, Kellie came on Open Loops (Episode 88) and delivered a potent, mind-bending dose of esoteric empowerment that left Greg’s neurons spinning like a bumper car on a Tilt-A-Whirl with nowhere to go....turns out they didn't.  In this exclusive interview, Kellie returns to dismantle and deconstruct everything she once believed, exposing the insidious way communal narcissism, power dynamics, unregulated healing modalities, groupthink, manufactured awakening, and spiritual sleight-of-hand can combine to entrap even the most earnest seekers in a high-control environment.What happens when a transformational high hits too hard... and never really ends?This isn’t just a story of disillusionment. It’s a forensic breakdown of belief systems gone rogue—told by someone who lived inside the source code... and clawed her way out.  This episode is High-Octane Cognitive Dissonance. It'll throw you. After absorbing the content fully, Greg somehow woke up curled in the fetal position in the crevice of Tony Robbin's jawline.  He's still clawing his way out...Kellie's Link: https://www.instagram.com/iamkellierhea/ Let Greg know how you like the show.

In this must-listen paranormal podcast episode of Open Loops, Greg interviews John Fraser—Council Member of the Society for Psychical Research and author of Paranormal Perspectives: One Big Box of Paranormal Tricks. Together they explore the groundbreaking idea that all paranormal events—from ghosts to poltergeists to UFOs—might stem from a single psychic force within us.  That’s right. No polyamorous forces, Aubrey Marcus. Cool your jets.Fraser, wo has investigated hundreds of cases including the Enfield poltergeist and the Cage haunting in Essex, lays out a compelling scientific and psychological framework. Instead of external entities, he suggests that stress, trauma, and altered states of consciousness may trigger these phenomena.John and Greg discuss hypnotic regression, ESP experiments, false memory formation, and why Fraser believes random event generator technology could be key to proving the paranormal scientifically. This conversation challenges demonology (sorry new Pope), explores the psychology behind ghost sightings, and makes a strong case for a unified paranormal theory.If you’re curious about how consciousness, haunted locations, and poltergeist behavior intersect in a scientifically grounded way and you love how that all wraps together in one sentence optimized for SEO, this is the top fringe science podcast episode of 2025 to hear.🔗 John’s Links📖 Book: Paranormal Perspectives – One Big Box of Paranormal Tricks  Let Greg know how you like the show.
