I think it's here:Excellent episode. Thank you Alex!
Some thoughts:
Deep Underground Bases were across my "crazy line" until I studied Ben Davidson's cyclical solar micro-nova hypothesis at https://suspicious0bservers.org. Now I think Elites know the periodic earth-scrape-off is coming soon. Going underground is the only way to ensure survival.
DMT is no proof of extended consciousness. I've abused ALL the drugs except Ayauascha. The first time you inject Heroin it feels like God is literally cradling you in His arms and lovingly stroking your head. PCP and shrooms give incredibly realistic hallucinations. MDMA gives a feeling of Love that is indescribable.
"You made a Contract" to do the Earth Experience. I agree. This seems to be the case.
Your hostility to Christianity is excessive. For 2,000 years rural, illiterate people found it a useful, beneficial Narrative for comprehending the world and living spirutually, just as rural, illiterate people in India used the Vedic stories. It prevented your Grandma from needing to be a scholar or have Wikipedia.
As a kid I HATED the Evangelical Christianity culture of New Orleans I was raised in. I saw it as bullying, and became a hard-kore F.U. Atheist Materialist. Syncromysticisms around the age of 40 cured me of Materialism. Sheldrake helped me begin to appreciate Christianity.
I was unable to find Renee Alsop's paper on the correlation between Astrology and Twitter Popularity at http://scientificexploration.org , The Journal of Scientific Exploration.

"Why Does Evil Matter?" - because without it we would not have the Freedom to use our Free Will to choose Good or Bad. This di-electic is necessary for Freedom to exist.
it's from awhile back. here's a linkNice interview, quite a few things to talk about. I guess I missed the episode about astrology (or did I misheard there was one?). I started looking into astrology after reading Jung. Modern western stuff (at least what I saw) is sooo fluffy and vague, ugh. But after seeing this episode with Alex's frenemy ShermerI started looking into vedic astrology quite seriously. It is actually very complicated, has a lot of "left-brain" stuff; quite fascinating actually.
As I understand it, at least in the tradition that I am following, stars are a reflection of the part of your karma you chose to deal with in this life time. It is not really written in stone, there is room for free will (otherwise how would you create new karma?), but it does lay our a territory so to speak, some more difficult and fixed, some less.
There is also something like "as long as you incarnate, you will keep creating karma, even if you are a saint". Only if you are ready and say I had enough, then you can merge with the absolute (I probably distort the teachings as I am total noob in this area).
So as I see it, stars do not really fix your fate, at least not in a fixed literal sense. That it is at all possible is not that surprising if we really are parts of one big consciousness - all is sort of entangled. However, it is still weird that you would have clues in the sky as to your tendencies and life circumstances - maybe the kind Supreme has left such clues to escape the Gnostic archons, i.e., understand and improve ourselves. Who knows.

Renay Oshop, Peer Reviewed Science Comes to Astrology ...
yes. The one on one reading wasn't so great :-) I'm always amazed when astrologers get thrown off their game by this. I'm glad she went forward with the interview I think her research is importantThanks, Alex. That was interesting too. So she failed in your reading, huh. In my school they say the maximum accuracy is about 75% and give some complicated reasons for it, which I was not able to comprehend (yet). One reason I got into it is to actually statistically test it, but found it is way more complicated than I thought. Maybe some day.
I know Sheldrake is an Anglican
