In our years of writing about synchronicity, we’ve done a lot of radio shows and podcasts, more than 50, with many repeats. Each show and podcast is different and appeals to a different audience. But what most of them have in common is a host who is intrigued by the paranormal. Today, we did one of the most interesting podcasts yet – Skeptico with Alex Tsakiris.
We were invited to the show as a result of a recommendation from one of his listeners, who had emailed me two really interesting synchros. I can’t remember the man’s name, please forgive me for that, but thank you for the recommendation! Skeptico was one of the best shows we’ve ever done and a lot of fun. Alex is well-versed in everything we write about. From synchronicity to UFOs, abductions, ghosts, hauntings, mediumship, psychics, you name it, he knows something about it. He also looks for the science behind it, specifically the tipping point in science. For us, the big question was what Rob and I have often asked ourselves: Who’s orchestrating this stuff?
We talked with him for about two hours and at some point, it occurred to me that Alex had to be a Gemini or had a Gemini moon or rising because of his communication skills. So during private time at the end, I asked him what sign he is. I always feel sort of weird when I do this. It sounds like a silly, shallow question – Hey, what sign are you? But to an astrologer, it’s the one question that really matters because it’s a challenge: Are you the archetype I think you are? It turned out he was born on June 8, I’m June 7, so yes, he’s a Gemini.
This helps to explain his open mind on all things paranormal and his search for the tipping point in science that supports/explains psi. Right brain, left brain.
In preparation for the show, Alex created this image. He calls it Skeptico’s Jeopardy. It’s a PDF, so just click on it. It’s a really clever and creative way to select what you want to talk about – and to make clear what’s off limits.
Our show will be up in about three weeks. In the meantime, check out Skeptico’s interviews. Alex has talked with many of the heavy hitters in metaphysical field. He’s a man on a quest.
I can’t believe you guys had not heard of Skeptico before this.
I’ve written heaps of posts about the show at my blog.
The show is in my Apple Podcast list of favourites, so I shouldn’t miss your episode when it becomes available.
Looking forward to hearing it, if that makes any sense?-)
I’d heard of it,but hadn’t listened. I think I first read about it on your blog. Alex is a terrific host.
