The Open Loops Hypno-Halloween Special featuring Emily from the Year 2070
HYPNOSIS Tim Seitz, the Happy Hypnotist, is one of the most creative practitioners of hypnosis, NLP, and mind arts in the field. Today, he comes on Open Loops with his mentee, Lina-Marie, to talk about and demonstrate hypnosis. At first, Tim talks about virtual reality, Inception, the Matrix, and The Holodeck. And how he's making those things happen in REAL LIFE. But then he demonstrates with Lina-Marie through hypnotizing her what actually is possible with trance. Some hypnotists only stop you from smoking. Some hypnosis only relieve you from your phobias. On this episode, Tim hypnotizes Line-Marie and through her, channels an interdimensional space alien from the future. Hypnosis, Time Travel, Space Aliens, Galactic Royalty, Elon Musk and Tantric Sex. It's not often you get to converse with a space alien. You'll love meeting Emily. Greg sure did. Happy Hypno-Halloween...on Open Loops...

Ouija Board Portals @ Eastern Kentucky University with Psychic Historian and Medium Stephanie Bingham
THE PARANORMAL It's Halloween! This episode fits right in.. Open Loops, of course, is a theme park for the intellect and imagination. Just consider this our Fright Fest. Stephanie Bingham (as seen on SyFy and The CW) joins Greg for a riveting discussion on everything from corporeal shark-teethed violent children to how hard it is for an exorcist to date men in Kentucky. She's a paranormal researcher and lecturer that sees creatures and humans that no one else can. They talk to her outside of her head. They talk to her inside of her head. You can ask her anything about goblins, vampires, ghouls, the Mothman, Ginns, demons, shapeshifters. 10 times out of 10 she'll be able to rattle off the history. 9/10, she'll have spoken to them personally. But don't worry. She has a very strict "no ghosts in the house" when guests are over policy. You ready to meet the supernatural Miss Frizzle? Hop on the Magic Ghoul Bus.

You are Magical as @#$%! with Metaphysical Coach and Psychic, Emily Davis
MAGICK Emily Davis has natural psychic abilities, she sees spirit guides, she has a performing background and most importantly, she cohosts the metaphysical comedy podcast, Perceptionists Anonymous! If you go to Emily's website, https://www.damselnomore.com/, the first thing you discover is the blunt truth. "You are magical as @#$%." This definitely caught Greg's attention. In her first appearance Open Loops, she more than delivers. In the course of an hour, Emily manages to make Greg's head explode with her simple, colorful, and refreshingly witty breakdowns of magickal and occult concepts that even have him believing by the end of the episode he could develop his psychic abilities. Where else can you learn how to hone your clairvoyance, clairaudience, clairsentience, clairscent, clairtangency, and/or clairgustance? -Why is Emily considered a "bad girl" of the spiritual community? -What is one simple way to know that you are, metaphysically, on the right path? -Who are Greg's spirit guides? And why is one of them hairier than he is in real life? This is one of Greg's favorite episodes. It's blunt. It's honest. And it's magical af as @#$%. --- Emily's Links: https://www.facebook.com/groups/masteryourmagic/ https://www.damselnomore.com/ https://www.instagram.com/likerofwords/ Podcast Links: https://open.spotify.com/show/4cs6JIcnTkS3tWUWxnYYs4 https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/perceptionists-anonymous/id1481128773?uo=4 https://www.instagram.com/perceptionistsanonymous/ --- If you like this show, www.ratethispodcast.com/openloops

Demonology Deconstructed: Conversation with Mystic-Skeptic Radio Show's David Daniel Gonzalez
RELIGION Exorcisms, possessions, witches, Satan, Sodom and Gomorrah. David Daniel Gonzalez returns! David's is a radio host, producer and researcher who explores diverse topics such as alternative history, ancient mysteries and the Bible. He's an author of several books in the Raiders of the Unknown series, including Demonology of Ancient Israel: The truth about demons, possession and exorcism, Heirs of the Kingdom: Jewish-Christianity's Relationship to Second Temple Judaism, and The Messiah Son of Ephraim: & The Gabriel Revelation Tablet. In the 90s, Fox could've produced a television show called, "When Bible Stories Go BAD!" and that's what this episode is all about. Because defecating to worship demons? Yes, it happened. If you're a fan of The Conjuring or The Exorcism, this episode is all about those films! ...and in David's opinion, just how utterly ridiculous it all is... -------------------------------- David's links: The Mystic-Skeptic Radio Show/Podcast: https://www.buzzsprout.com/84561 Website: https://mysticandskeptic.wordpress.com/ -------------------------------- If you enjoy this show, please go to ratethispodcast.com/openloops so we can keep bringing you more!

The “Florida Man” Episode with UFO Abductee, LSD Psychonaut, and Past Lives Journeyman Robert Emerson
UFOS Ah, yes. Robert Emerson has been hypnotizing people to get in touch with their past lives for over forty years. And he casually was abducted by aliens. This episode is an intergalactic head trip that ranges from regular sightings of Flying Saucers in Middleton, Massachusetts to embodying the spirit of deceased Nubian Princesses. All within the span of five minutes. And did this guest tell Greg if he's bad-intentioned and fails to come from heart-consciousness with his podcast he just might get a whoopin'? You should listen to this because just by the fact that you are listening, Robert will get you in touch with your spirit guides. He might smack Greg, too. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ If there are more topics you want Greg to explore, or you'd like to share your UFO story, please email Greg at greg@open-loops.com.
