Caller: What Happened to Tara Reade, Biden's Sexual Assault Accuser?
"Also the same talk show host, Jeff kuhner was talking about there's a woman who's now come out and said that Biden raped her while he was a congressman. Tara Reid remember the woman's name. Her name is Tara Reade. And that came out before the election, but she was hushed. Nobody paid any attention to it. The media just silenced her and the Democrats would not, she wanted to speak in front of Congress, Democrats wouldn't let her do it. And so she never got to tell her story, but she apparently now is speaking with one of the Republican committees.

Crypto Fugitive Do Kwon Arrested Per Montenegro Minister
"Do kwon has likely been arrested at the airport in Montenegro, according to a new tweet from the minister, the interior of that country is a pretty big news bombshell for the development and we've of course been tracking do Kwan and where in the world is do Quan on the show for quite a while. It seems like he has finally been caught. There's been requests from Interpol to locate the individual he is behind, of course, terraform labs, which was behind the failed tarot Luna stablecoin, which the talk about $40 billion in market cap wiped off the face of cryptocurrency industry in a few hours last May of 2022. It is a huge new update. He's been on the run for a while.

Tara Reade Reacts to Ashley Biden's Alleged Diary Entry
"We are back with Tara Reade. Tara, I wanted to get your reaction to this. This is a diary entry from Ashley Biden. The diary has been confirmed as real and authentic and one of her entries says this. It just says hyper sexualized at a young age. What is this due to? Was I molested? I think so. I can't remember specifics, but I do remember trauma. I remember not liking the wool Zack's house. I remember somewhat being sexualized with Caroline. I remember having sex with friends at a young age, showers with my dad probably not appropriate. What's your reaction to seeing something like that? Yeah, I mean, that's a deeply personal diary entry. So my heart goes out to whoever wrote that. I mean, and obviously they've verified that it's Ashley Biden. I think it's deeply disturbing. I mean, I don't know how anyone could not read that and think that's not deeply disturbing. Yeah. Yeah, it's tragic because for a long time the left tried to discredit the diary pretend it wasn't real. It's kind of like what they did with Hunter Biden trying to discredit the laptop and all of this as opposed to seeing this is a person in such deep pain. I mean, I feel horrible for Ashley Biden having to go through this. That's so sad she mentioned even with her sister. And then you think of hunter. I mean, he's, of course, guilty of crimes, but he's also a disturbed person. Dad wasn't there for him. There was a lot of personal information on the laptop. He struggles with drug addiction and things like that. And so it's really sad to see the left just kind of belittle it and act like, oh, it doesn't matter. It's not a big deal. We're just going to prop up Joe Biden as opposed to focusing on the whether it's sexual assault or mental health.

Tara Reade Reflects on Her Time as a Senate Aide for Biden
"You went in there with a lot of idealism. You had goals, you wanted to learn new things when you went to work there. So when you got there as a Senate aide, when did things kind of begin to maybe not feel less idealistic or as positive while you were there. Well, almost right away, unfortunately. You know, and I want to contrast it a little bit to Leon Panetta's office. Leon Panetta's office was very professional. You know, politically, I may not agree with everything. He does, but he was very serious minded, and he worked very hard. And the office was very structured. It was just like what you would expect a normal like you're trying to do things for your constituents. And it was a normal working environment. Biden's office was, it was a shock. It wasn't that way at all. It was very top down kind of people were treated not very well. Lower stuff. I mean, for an example, one of my colleagues who had an advanced degree and worked as a legislative aid was telling the senator advising him how to vote and giving him information. He was delegated to drive the limo for Beau Biden and his date for the inaugural events. And he had to do that as a volunteer. He wasn't paid for that. And it's not like. And I mean, they just kind of treated their stuff like minions. Unless they were on the inside track and then they were given a lot of favor. So it was a very strange environment. Joe Biden did not seem serious to me. He seemed more, he didn't seem intellectually committed to what he was doing is what I'm trying to say. And I got that right away. The way he would touch me, I thought was unusual, but remember this is the 90s. What was tolerated then is very different than what happens now, but even then it was usual. And unusual enough for me to call my mother and say, hey, you know, this happened, and this happened. And I kept calling her and she said, you know, she educated me, really. You know, that's not okay. That's sexual harassment. He has power over you, and he shouldn't be doing that.

Danielle Interviews Former Senate Aide Tara Reade
"I'm delighted to welcome our guest today Tara Reid. She's an author, actress, former Senate aide, and the host of the Tara Reade podcast. Tara, thanks for joining us. Hi. Yeah, I'm actually in my podcast is called the politics of survival. And it's on every Friday night. So on rumble and on YouTube, well, sometimes YouTube, sometimes they pull it down. You know. Oh my gosh. Oh no. So you get like some YouTube strikes and violations lately, but yeah, it seemed like it was more frequent earlier this year and it seems to have calmed down a little bit, but yeah, look everyone. I think rumble is really great because it's just sort of there's no, there's no censorship. Yes, that is so nice. It's crazy too how I'm sure you were just talking about things that shouldn't have been censored, but how it is. But yeah, I thought we could get started by maybe you could tell us a little bit about your earlier years in life. Where did you grow up? Where are you from? Kind of tell us a little bit about you becoming a Senate aide. Oh, okay. Yeah, that's interesting. wrote about it in my book left out when the truth doesn't fit in, and you can find that on Amazon or wherever. I wrote a bit about my childhood, but I lived on a farm in Wisconsin when I was a little girl. I was born in the Monterey county, California, since Linus. And you know, I went back there as an adult actually to the Monterey area, which is a beautiful area, but very, very expensive. And I loved my years growing up in Wisconsin farm. I always had an interest in my family is very political. My mother was an activist and anti war activist Vietnam and very committed to that. My father, I was pretty much a strange with him after their divorce from 13 9. I didn't see much of him for years at a time. But he was a defense contractor and worked for the panna cotta at one time and was a writer. So he was very different politically than my mother. So very different views. And I think that's kind of in a way good because I've had a lot of different input of different points of view throughout my life.

We're Seeing Similarities to May of 2022
"We are recording this Friday morning. It is 9 30 mountain time. So it's what love and 30 Eastern Time. Bitcoin's price almost broke to $27,000 this morning. It's up around 5% in the 24 hours previously and is up about 30% this week in 56% year to date. That's obviously pretty amazing for everyone's bags. And it's also helping out hash price a little bit. I think we're over 7 sets with hash price. The thing that's interesting to me is transaction count, which or the fullness of the mem pool, if you will, is increasing the drastically we've seen two large increases in the mempool size since the beginning of the year. Once in February, when ordinals started really going, haywire, and then the last week would Bitcoin's price has been going up. Historically, we often see the men pool really fill up with transactions during a bull run when a lot of retail floods into the market and this current fullness of men pull is very similar to May of 2022, which is when we had the contagion in the explosion and Tara Luna. So another time for a lot of transactions on chain. Get a throw it over to you for your thoughts on all that. Filling up the increasing transaction fees good for minors, first of all, good for miners on both fronts, price going up and more transactions. So that's exciting. It seems the mental to me seems to be kind of driven again by ordinals inscriptions. This seems like there's like some deja and competition for the 500,000th inscription. And there's some like pre hefty size transactions and the pool right now, which definitely seemed like very similar to the ones we were seeing. So that's kind of unique and interesting there.

What Are We Hearing From Joe Biden?
"Hearing from Joe Biden? He said that we are going to support Ukraine for as long as it takes. That means another year, another 5 years, another ten years and let's make sure we have our facts right. I know we obviously have a very conservative audience and I know based on your emails you send me freedom at Charlie Kirk dot com, you are against the war in Ukraine, but several of your Republican senators and several of your Republican congressmen are the most enthusiastic advocates for this new endless war. So this is not just Joe Biden. This is both parties. In fact, Republicans are pushing for even more aid. In Ukraine. Joe Biden and cut four, the United States will support Ukraine for as long as it takes. There is no end date, there is no limit as Ukraine, one of the states in our country might as well be for neoliberalism. For neoliberals, they don't see borders, borders are an abstract concept. We're all one world. Pick up four. Freedom is priceless. It's worth fighting for, as long as it takes. And that's how long we're going to be with you, mister president, for as long as it takes. We'll do it. Thank you. I mean, I just get a kick out of saying that zelensky represents freedom. The man that bans political parties, the man that literally does not allow the Russian Orthodox Church from existing or worshiping in mainland Ukraine. Zelensky is a corrupt oligarch. Does that mean he deserves in his people deserve to be invaded by Putin? No. But to make zelensky somehow the standard bearer of western freedom is just laughable.

Joe Biden Makes a Surprise Visit to Ukraine
"Your president is visiting his prized constituents in Ukraine. Now I have to say many of you are fired up and you should be, why is he not visiting Ohio? Why is he not focusing on issues here domestically? And that is the right sentiment. However, the fact that we spent a $100 billion in Ukraine were acting as if Ukraine is more like America than our own country. Is it the 51st state? That's a simple question, but hey, I actually don't think it's a waste of time if you're doing the right thing when you go to visit Ukraine and Biden is doing the opposite of the right thing. Yes, he should be visiting some of the catastrophes and disasters happening in our homeland first, but we've talked about what is neoliberalism. Neoliberalism is caring more about the needs wants and concerns of foreigners than that of your own citizens. Tyrants dictators and despots have a fetish for the needs wants and concerns of something that is foreign and they really are disinterested in your life. In the life of an American. So Biden is in the middle of the Ukrainian war zone. And yes, I totally agree. He should be an east Palestinian. He should be mobilizing fema. He should be concerned about our own country, but visiting Ukraine. I don't think is necessarily a waste of time. If you are using the bully pulpit, if you are using American strength, if you are using the power of the presidency to broker peace, if you are saying, hey, let's end this war. Now, I believe Joe Biden does have deep seated contempt for large parts of America. I think he really does, I think he hates Midwest Trump America. But all that aside, if you are going to visit Ukraine, if you're going to visit visit Eastern Europe, in the middle of this proxy war that is about to hit a whole, it's about to enter a whole new chapter in about a week and a half. It seems as if Putin is going to put his foot on the accelerator and what are we doing? What is our government doing? Well, Joe Biden is doing the exact opposite and it's going to put America at risk. It's going to put more of our money at risk. And the most immediate and sad fact is that tens of thousands of people are going to unnecessarily die in

That's a life of ads and it's not a good ride for them either here. You always want to find everyone's point of view okay. Oh that's it okay when they were next to vehicle Like you can know intellectually. They're five hundred pounds. But until you see a fucking five hundred pound killing machine next to you i can't. I don't think i'd enjoy that so far. And then tell you something. I had this distinct thought like every other thing. I have a fantasy that i would try to fight back in a way that could potentially saved my life. I literally looked at that thing. And i was like the quicker the better like there's no. There's nothing to be done like. Just make it as quick as possible. I'm going to like present my narrow stop. This means i'm sorry. Wrong kind of pouts. Did you look at the i. yes i use a. You're not supposed to but it was looking at me and the eye and then i was like look at me in the eyes so then i had to look at me in the. I fucking like this i. I have a pitcher of it. I have a picture of it on my computer. Walked by new win. Like this when you took a you then your phone out man i had my cannon sally maybe maybe it like covered your face a little well. The point is it locked eyes with me and pan right as it passed the vehicle like it held a gays because their whole defenses. They don't recognize you as prey. Because you're in this vehicle recognizes. My eyes is a creature that eats everything is loves is the apex of it so it was like a slow build. I guess it turned out exactly how it should. But i was like a wild lion ass walk across the long field and it was getting closer and closer and get more and more scared. I think those things are still three hundred pounds. And it got close. And i was really panicked. But then more interactions over the week and then culminating in us like something came over the radio. They got a zebra in in the guy took us over. We parked in the dead middle of about thirteen lions. They were all around us. So it's not like we were. On the periphery looking. We were in the pride. I kept turning my head like there's some behind me. There's some left there laying on the ground. The guy's going don't worry. They just eight zebra. They're not hungry. And i'm like how do we know every one of them got fall. We he doesn't know them. It was wild like that had been the first thing we did on the thing. I don't think i could handle it..

And i'll just add you already mentioned earlier in the conversation but for people who need a little bit optimism like this has been successful. This has been an endeavor that has raised the overall population of these animals. So it's not throwing good money after bad as they would say. This is like a very effective strategy and again so grateful to you and everyone that you work with that. You're doing this and fingers crossed. I'll get to take my daughter's there at some point definitely we would love to host them. I agree. I think there's so much doom and gloom around the environment and jen raw and ask me that all. The time like is overwhelming. Do you get depressed. And i think having the mountain gorillas story is so inspirational and the reason that has been successful is it's it's such a collaborative effort. A conservation doesn't happen overnight. You have to stay the course. This has been going on for fifty three years. It's one of the longest studies of any animal in the world and it's ngos and governments and individuals from around the world that support the work that has made this happen so it's just a great reminder that if we work together we can have these positive impacts and we can't do it alone. The problems are really too big that we're facing right now in terms of wildlife and conservation but it gives me a lot of inspiration that we can do it and when you think about what. This part of the world has been through to come out on the positive side conservation in an area of the world where there's been civil conflict where there's been genocide to know. That conservation can work in that backdrop. We can hopefully make it work and lots of others as well. We'll tara i appreciate so much your time. People should go to gorilla. Fund dot org.

"The ceo of dian fossey gorilla. It's not easy asking for money right now. It's round my favorite thing to do. I think environmental charities get like less than three percent of philanthropic dollars worldwide were very low on the totem pole. In general and in the us stays in countries so international charities get a very small part of that. So yeah you're just kind of always feeling like you're on this hamster wheel of trying to get money to do the important work that's happening and people often ask me like okay tara. There's so many important issues out there whether it be education or healthcare. Why gorillas like. Why should i care about what's happening to guerrillas halfway around the world and we try and tell people that ultimately the the survival of guerrillas tied to our own survival. so you're la's inhabit the congo basin. It's the second largest standing tropical rainforests on the planet. It's one of our best natural defenses against climate change and the guerrillas and all the other wildlife that lived there. They're kind of like the environmental engineers there the gardeners so when they eat. They disperse seeds. They change plant communities around and so ultimately if we don't conserve gorillas for selfless reasons. Let's think of it from a selfish perspective that we need these forests to help with climate change and other things so trying to get that bigger picture that it's much more than guerrillas and by helping guerrillas are also helping the people that live near them so i think that helps people understand why what seems like a very niche market is really actually a really important worldwide phenomenon. An important thing for us to be involved in. I got to say though my own issue with that argument. I've heard that before. Kristen's been involved with a million different charities and people who like. Why are you helping those people. Instead of these people why are rate like the there should be a hierarchy of what you care about and then it should be prioritized but we don't approach any other thing like that like so.

Your husband died of cancer over eight years ago. So your girls were like six and fours. Yeah okay so over. Well you think you must have processed that. I can imagine myself. Witnessing this fatherly behavior just mucky losing it in the words own now. This is what they don't have the grocery store. And i would see my daughter's tracking these little girls with their dads and mike watching that. Yeah it is really hard and you realize what they're missing when they don't have that father figure. I'm very lucky 'cause we always say with guerrillas. It takes a village. And i have a very wonderful village. My husband and i met in college so a lot of our college friends in particular his college friends. There's this great book called the circle of dad's it's about a gentleman who was diagnosed with cancer and he brought friends together from various points of in his life to be there for his daughters. Should pass away and he ended up surviving. But i was so inspired by this book. And i read it even before my husband had passed away. It's really about friendship. And so we have this circle of dad's which provides amazing support. But it's hard. I mean it's hard i have really amazing smart. Bright strong independent girls and not having any testosterone in the house to the balance. I'm sure you're familiar with the men. Just bring a different dynamic. And i can remember when they were really little. My husband's saying like take it easy on your mom. Something i thought would start when they were like fifteen but but they're phenomenal are going to change. The world by parenting is tough. I think it's uniquely challenging because don't go to work and then observe this thing. they're missing. I just think you uniquely painful situation for that. And i applaud the fact that you're pushing through and being productive and wonderful in raising daughters. It's it's super impressive. I think anyone who is married and has kids. That's like the second biggest fear is that you lose your partner in raising them when you step back in you watch our behavior and you watch sort of objectively the way that we would watch animal behavior. It's super fascinating to look at humans. As a species we have such range. We are the most incredibly compassionate and caring on one end. and then we've got the complete other side of us and so sometimes i like to do that. Like go and sit and people watch and just think about them. The way that i would think about watching guerrillas and it's just fun to do. I have the same proclivity. And i wondered my main thing that i feel like i keep lane over. Humans that i learned in anthro is all these. Social primates live and die on status like it is the most paramount thing to navigating their world. And so when i look at us humans i feel bad because we have as much or more..

Hundred pound male lion and kristen loved it. She's taking pictures. And i'm like we're like we're so vulnerable. You know the guides like oh. They don't recognize us as prey. Because we're in a car and i'm like yeah until the day they do. Someone's going to be clever enough to realize there's a delicious meal sitting completely defenses. I gotta tell you one other really funny part of it i have to imagine. I wonder what you're feeling. Is i think the people that go. It's not a comfortable. You don't fly directly to some place you generally. There's a six hour car ride involved. You stay in a very bare bones. Place the night before you get money and messy. Like the shitheads get weeded out like someone who just wants a pitcher with a gorilla and i could be wrong about that but it did appear to me that most people that were there had a ton of actual respect for those animals because there was a big commitment to get there we happen to be with a green beret who i just met on that trip now and the whole hour and a half hike up that mountain. We argued about who would get pulled out by the silverback. Who was the most alpha in this group. And i kept saying look man. He doesn't know your training. He's just going to go visually. I'm so much more alpha than you. Visually ramones he's like telling me all the reasons so we were in both joking war. I'm also terrified to get pulled out so just for people who don't know often they told us fifty percent of the time. I don't know what the real number is fifty percent of the time. The silverback will kind of identify who he thinks is maybe the most potential threat and they just come over and they pick you up by your backpack and they drag you out of the circle or at least. That's what we were told could happen so i didn't want that to happen. But it was worth having it happened to have won that argument with the green beret. Knowing pulled out that day but i am curious. How often does it happen..

"Which is totally not what you would expect for guerrillas. Yeah that's kinda wild and then also just for fun you get into the nitty gritty about the chimps. So yeah the reason that the sexual die. Morphism champs is not so dramatic like it is with guerrillas cleverness can get your genes passed on so they are known to call out the call for a leopard and of course the dominant male runs over with his dudes. Like let's get and then the clever one. Just start having sex with maybe even a high-ranking female because all the males have gone over to be so cleverness can mean and these are the comedians of the group. If in when have you guys. Observe gorillas kind of outsmarting silverback. Do they use any tactics like that. I would say guerrillas. This is a funny piece of the male vocalisations. They make when they're copulating may seem to not be able to suppress it because they live. You've been in that habitat you know. It's super dense forest so you can easily like go around the bush and no one will know you're there and then you hear them. Start making the copulation noise and you want to be like dude top. Like you'll know this is going on and that's when you see the adult males will go over and break it up but if they could just like zip it they would be golden. Wow so interesting. And does the silverback go running. Generally like he well a lot of time so cowan split it up. Yeah okay something really interesting that way. We didn't hear the rest of the kinds of so sorry. You're right yeah. There's mountain gorillas and just also a little bit. There's only a thousand of them left on the planet there's growers guerrillas which live just over the border in democratic republic of the congo. That's the only country there found and we estimate there's about thirty five hundred of them left. Which the number seems a little bit nicer. It's bigger but we've lost eighty percent of them in the last twenty five years so they are crashing. The way mountain girl is crashing back when diane fossey was there and then you have to kind of across to west africa. And then you've got the western lowland gorillas there are still pretty robust. There's about four hundred thousand of them left. Oh wow but they're declining as well a lot of it from poaching and then there's another type called the cross river gorilla which not many people have heard of. That are just found on the border of cameron in nigeria. So only one of those four lynn. Zoos so the other three are only found in the wild. So protecting those wild populations is really critically important. Our mountain gorillas only found in zoos because they offer the silverback and they'd just visually more on brand for guerrilla so western lands. Are the only one found in zoos. So all yeah. All types of girls silverback. Oh that's just a process of maturation. So just the same way females get hair on their face and brought her shoulders gorilla males when they reached twelve thirteen start to develop that silver mantle on their back and so then they become a silverback. So they're all four popular off for type..

"As i was preparing to talk to you. It occurred to me that there's a lot of elements that the gorilla population shares with the lion population or at least my understanding of it. One of them being generally a pride is like a dominant male. Maybe some siblings right male siblings. He allows us to be there and then he has control over all these females to mate also come in and kill cubs so that the lions will go into estrus. Think and i think guerrillas have been documented doing that as well. I haven't they definitely always say it's like the dark side of guerrilla society. Is this infanticide which is a super common male reproductive strategy. But it's really hard to see and hard to understand. Sometimes i love when you call it a male reproductive strategy. It sounds like that may look reproductive strategy. It's non monstrous. If it's very specific practical outcome and i'll let you explain it. I have a bad tendency. I'm going to try to impress you because you have the job that i kind of aspired to were not an actor so because of that type of mate selection or there is one dominant male who has access to all the females generally those are what drives the evolution for the mail right is just size totally so male lions under a lot of people noticed like male lions has continue to get bigger and bigger and bigger and if they live to be a billion years they will just continue to get bigger and bigger and bigger right. I think at some point their growth styles. They've got that huge main which is actually like you just said it's a detriment to them. In terms of hunting it makes them less efficient hunters. All size is to basically a defend females and attract females and. it's the same thing with guerrillas. Males are twice the size as females. They're vegetarians they don't need that. Jain ormuz head that you see behind me. They eat the same thing as females but all of that size and shape is just to protect their family to attract females. And we now know from the studies. We've done that in males. Bigger is better in certain arenas the bigger your shoulders are the bigger. Your head are the more likely you are to be dominant. The more likely you are to attract females and the more success. We're gonna have reproductively and now we even we just published a super cool study to show that this behavior you see behind me which is the icon of. Yeah you did it correctly with hands. Open a lot of times. People closed the hands. There have been wrongly informed by king kong. Exactly i one time. They asked me to rate all the king. Kongs comic crossed all the movies. Of course they did that. Weird stuff you get asked to do as a primatology. And i had to give the king kong with andy circuits the number one rating first of all because he came in study with us when he was preparing but also it was one of the only cons that actually did the chesapeake correctly with their own wonderful now as someone again who is very interested in the field. I thought that the movie they did an incredible job was planet of the apes definitely. Did that one interesting because they really latched onto some actual real things exactly except guerrillas have such a small role in that line. And i have to admit. I'm a little biased towards guerrillas. But yes they do a great job. Do a great job. Can i guess your hierarchy. Yes definitely so guerrillas number one or worse. I'm going harangue number two exactly and then i'm going pay on. Troglodyte is.

"It like that was a little dr met you know. Yeah it was. It was really perfect. Because you know the the spiritual teachers the cause trouble they. It is always a marble thing. There is some real insight and wisdom. But they've got unprocessed stuff and it's not integrated and so the idea is how can we wake up in a way that's integrated so that we don't have a lot below the line. There's not a lot. That's running our behavior that we will claim as part of our spirituality. But it's really just our ego that might want to act in a way to basically You know rape a student our way to take money. That's not meant for us. So and i've i've seen the downfall of so many teachers and it's not just teachers of courses anybody in power because they weren't integrated. They had not done that processing so it can have a really ugly shadow side but even when it's not ugly emphasize emptiness that nobody's home. This is just reality. Just playing itself out. Its appearances arising in dissolving. It's it's what's called dry emptiness and it lacks the moisture of the heart and it lacks kind of wisdom that really can navigate in a way that brings healing to ourselves and others. So there's a real value to doing the present saying like the words being in the present moment or be present. But i like be the presence or bring presence to as. That's more active Subjective understanding of it but present thing with all the layers that appear and versus what sometimes called premature transcendence will we just and contents the teachers to say. All you have to do is see that it's empty. just see. don't believe your thoughts to see that it's empty. And i'm really i love. Don't believe your thoughts. It's one of the things. I i really try to practice a lot but then come into the body and have an honest intimate awake presence with what's here are else it's going to be below the line and end up hijacking us in a much more sideways kind of way right wow i mean premature. Transcendence that it's that an and dry genus. But yeah while. I'm just i just want to say it so that it gets there because it really has been coming up over and over again and that's so nice to hear that this is Yeah that that that's not just in my own head that they're no there. Is there kind of a pattern and a process. There is a flip side though val just to name which is people get addicted to processing and they think there's always more to pay attention to and i'm not there yet and that's another delusion to and sometimes just one of my teachers says just dropping like just drop it all like everything that's like no deep thought that one of our mantras is no deep thoughts allege we take we take break see call week we love our about this stuff and sometimes you just go stop and those are some of my favorite times. I love putting all this stuff in there and knowing it's in there and then when you drop everything it's still it's still in your mirrow. You know what. I mean. I my i was going to ask you about psychedelics when i take psychedelics whenever i go to that place i go. It matters filling yourself up with all of this wisdom matters. Because when the ax hits the grindstone and the sparks fly half. The sparks are informed. By what you were filling yourself with in a psychological way. And i think in a spiritual way might has always like. It's not quite right but it's so adorable. How close we could get like the. The effort was beautiful even if it will never be the absolute mystery. That was my last question for you. Tara just out of respect your time we asked for two hours were closing in on is I was just listening to terence mckenna and he was talking about. Emt and he was saying that he gave emt to very. He didn't say who would like a very high. High ranking to betton monk and that the tibetan monks. I'd never heard this he goes. Oh it's the lower lights. Have you heard of the lower. I hadn't that it that it's one of the baras. That's one of the So when he smoked. Emt you have like a complete channel change. You're not here anymore. You're in a different reality. And you're there. They only lasts fifteen minutes but the catch is that it's timeless so it doesn't really matter how long it is on earth anyway. So you're in this other place and he said it's it's one of the bardo so when you die you go through the bartos and the lower lights are as high as you can go while still maintaining a connection to your body and to go to the upper lights you have to sever the connection to the body to go any further. I was just wondering and he said so what amongst that. I wanted to put us like. I've seen these. I've i've visited this place many times and he was like i don't understand how you're getting there from a plant as very confusing but like go there. I'm assuming he meant through meditation all the time. I was wondering what your what your thought i know. This is wearing like a psychedelic renaissance. See you must get this all the time. But i've gotten a lot of value out of them And i'm wondering what you make of that lower light thing if you've and then really it's just a. It's just a fun question. it's just in the spirit of fun. Have you ever been to those bartos. Yeah i have and Just to back up a little. It's really amazing. How neurosciences showing that what meditation does is very similar to. What a lot of the chemicals do the plant. The plant medicines Dm t. which is a totally deactivates. The parts of the brain that sustained a sense of self. So they doing the same thing. And i i started with psychedelics. I had experiences that. I knew were homecoming in some way and then realized that meditation could keep on carrying me so i completely stopped. Did you know fifteen years. Whatever of meditation and then. I gradually began to periodically drop in a psychedelic journey. Here and there are and have found that the meditation is. What integrates it you know and relationships. Integrate i mean meditation and being alive in the world and and then they can be like a booster rocket to take these things and i just did recently Consult for a group here. Fantastic what they're doing. I think it's the first group that's in hospital. It's an oncologist and his team. That are that are offering cancer. Patients soloist ivan and so on and we consulted about. How do you design meditation and therapy to integrate it. So that they because they they do find that they open to a place. That's very fearless. Because they're not identified with their human self body and there really trusting and sensing the goal the unity the one and then and it really affects. How they they. They relate to the deceased processed. And the meditation and therapy are really. I can tell are going to be increasingly important support for it so it's really a both end. He was terence was also. I say i do feel like he's my friend. Turns use talking about talk about integration. He's a lot of people will have a mt experience. And they'll come back and they won't. It'll be gone like a dream upon waking they won't have any capacity to incorporate it and i thought that was very interesting that meditation does seem to work. That seems kind of grotesque takata muscle. But like it helps you. I mean as a lot of tibetan buddhism. Staying calm in a bardo like seeing the impossible and still staying in a in a center in the word is getting familiar. Which i love is with everything like any time. I kinda wake up out of a tangle and then it's not i- anymore but there's this field of tenderness and wakefulness. There's more familiarity that that's more of the truth of who i am than any store i could ever tell about myself. So those experiences start becoming the reality the another words. I'm not living in something smaller. And so that when you get catapulted by one of these plant medicines. There's already some familiarity and it just deepens that process so for me. with d. m. t. which i've only done a couple of times. It definitely catapults to that total disillusion. There's no orientation are centralization of self. And if i talk about it i can feel. It's kind of a felt sense that you know beyond a felt sense because it can't be described through the body but there's access so there's some integration but i think that's just because there was already a level of familiarity Does that make sense. Yes yeah having the the reference point like it's almost like the psychedelics blowing a a door open but then you enter the door and you go wait a minute. I know this room. I've been here i. it's interesting. The the christian tradition. When you look at again. I've been doing reading about paul so paul conversion experience. I know you were raised in the christian church so you probably i was. I was not where. I read somewhere that you were referring unitarian. Which and which is supposedly under its under the rubric. it's it was very non a social justice and progressive but not so much about a spiritual experience..

I give that are incredibly disclosing and show me with all my foibles and stumbling around and self doubt and those are the ones that get all the emails about house a green. I think it's like it gives people hope that they're ok that they can trust the goal because all of these normal human conditionings aren't who we are they don't well and i mean it kind of goes i mean. Isn't it such a beautiful thing about the human experience that you are doing this thing that heals you and you're doing this thing that heals you and that heals others as well like you can almost trust that because it's healing for you that's going to be transmuted And spread to to others. Because we're essentially all the same. Were mostly the same. That's yeah that's yeah and we're we clearly in relationship it's like it's like what each of us is experiencing is only in relationship to how the energy is between the three of us right now. We can only describe. Things in terms of relational fields. That's so funny I'm trying to do a job right now about the big bang. And i'm like big big only exists in relation to small and there was no witness owned. It could have been a very small bang. Pass bangs really only became big after apes evolved into humans and started to go like i remember. It's bigger than me marines. It's very. I definitely got those types of thoughts from alan watts. At everything only exists in relationship and that and then i was just talking to somebody about all of the suffering in the world and i know this kind of sounds crazy but i was like. It's all been this way like i know. It seems like in a lot of ways worse than ever. But i was like we could have been born in mongolia and genghis khan could have been swarming through the countryside and there was a time that if you lived in a village it could have been utopia. But there were marauders. there were like people on horseback. That just came and took over so again like Talking about death can actually bring out. The life can make you feel good talking about how jesus says the poor will always be among new. I think he's sort of saying like suffering is always is always going to be part of it as alan watt says as soon as you move forward behind you exists as soon as there's big there's little as soon as there's tar only knows tara by reflecting off of pete isn't that i mean are we talking about a world of relationship so when the three of us can get together and create a different a loving gentle frequency 'soft frequency bats. That's beautiful that's a good use of the option. Compared to us you know basically putting each other down. Yeah yes really lovely. It's specifically it's helping me also look at my own wounding and and be like there's no problem here of course that's like the nature of humanity. Because i think my core negative belief or one of them is all alone and unlike too small to be alone so it's definitely Child self stuff and and the way that just like pete's comedy has helped his child self feel safe I will mirror and a tune lock onto someone else because there's a belief that like i only exist in relationship with them so That's obviously there there. There's healing that can come around that. But i'm finding as i'm going back to what we're saying wounds to wisdom like as i am a guiding meditations for people that that's actually a superpower in that situation because you can really attuned to what that specific person is needing and and be that for them in the moment But yeah but but just to hear like oh yeah peep. We all exist in relationship to each other. That's not like my own pathology or my own specific problem not to say that. There isn't some healing that can be done with feeling safe alone and and nurturing my myself entrusting that i have that but So much of what i think we take. Ownership of is is just wired in us. It's part of the deal and we think that that is our own personal problem that no one else has just us surgeon. Any notion of a self comes with aversion to self because the self is experienced a separate and that means the self as experienced as needing to protect and needing to further itself. And we don't like those things. We don't like that we get aggressive. We don't like that we're need. We don't like that we're greedy. We don't like cell thing so and that comes out of identification any identification with the self. It's like the like. I think i can't remember who said it but the prime will mood of the separate selfish fear and with that come shame for not being good because we don't like the primal activities of grasping version.

Were include the ways but we are the ocean and so And if you trust your the ocean you're not afraid of the way And if and if you don't trust the ocean you'll get seasick every day out that week. I love that. It's so funny. I i feel like people have such a or an easier time. Let's take people bladder it. I- tara is an easier time looking out at others and going. it's all in the game. it's all in the game. there's a selfish person. There's an angry person. There's a lustful person and i just go. Look at the dance. Look at the dance. it's okay. But when i have it i go like you are a dirty boy. When you talk about going into meditation and a lot of things came to mind when he said like somebody offered that sometimes your brain is distracting you. When you're meditating because it doesn't want you to to incorporate this stuff it's it's actually trying to protect you again. You're you're doing this work. You're in my literally like trying to coax the unconscious out like a cat. That's an abortion putting a little tuna fish out for it and then my brain will start playing an episode of al from nineteen. And i'm like what are you doing and it's not just. I'm bad at meditating. I think there's something in it going. He doesn't know what he's doing. If you let this in the whole thing falls apart he won't be able to ride the bus. he won't be able to hold a job. He won't be able to host a podcast because he'll be insane if we incorporate and love everything. But can you give us a little hope that it's safe to incorporate and love ourselves not have shaved means that your whole you go and comfortable in the universe gets sustained. It gets one of the ways that again science. I've been getting more and more into science. I find like the metaphors of science. Like work so well on so much and so okay. So we know that as soon as we're not occupied in on a specific task other default network gets activated and the default network in our brain basically has us going into the past and the future over and over again to resurrect a stable sense of self are familiar yourself and so meditators say will wires. My mind is wandering well. It's like we're rigged to have a wandering mind. I mean it is. What preserves our sense of self and meditation in does assess himself though. It's not safe not safe. According to know that wants to stay comfortable and familiar but but what happens is there's another piece to it. Which is we also. Have this like intuition that we belong to something more each of us. Because it's the truth. We have that as an intuitive knowing we all have that wisdom and so when we get tastes It really motivates us that we that we're more we know we can't be at home in the ego. 'cause it's not the truth of who we are so there's some real longing to go ahead and open to. What feels edgy. And we learn one of one teacher said to meet our edge and soften which is like that one has been so helpful to me in a just. I remember i was in the hospital one and i had some. We didn't know what was wrong with me and And having to let go of all sorts of work. I've been doing and this and that. Because i was getting sicker and sicker and i remember one point with with all the fear coming up and all the voices of what you're describing the unconscious it was saying. Well this might be it you know. And there's going to be a net. Sometimes there's gonna be an n line in here we are. You know and all that. I'd have to give up the mantra that worked was just meacher edge and soften keep opening. I open to the fear and that opened me to the the grief like all this loss and and then that opened me to like this infinite tender place but it wouldn't have happened if i didn't have some coaching that as as we've been talking that knows that it's only by moving the line allowing what's unseen felt in that there was going to be some freedom to saying yes the fear to the drab. I mean it's real counterintuitive. The mantra that i use most often as yes. Thank you i know. I'm not the only one that's not like you need to me. But like not non-resistance might be too funky sounding but just saying yes. Thank you not just. Yes but actually this absurd. It's actually pretty funny like if you're if you're dying imagine greeting that with thank you. I can't i. Can't i can't imagine that that's high level stuff but that is my hope. Isn't that absurd where to weirdos. That are like boy. I hope when i'm dying. I'm able to say like like having a child you'll have like a thought if some tragedy or or you'll have unrelated to having a child. You'll have some weird violent fantasy a patricide. You'll have patricide seidel fantasy and the only thing that seems to work is a ramdas used to say treat them like rambunctious you don't you. Don't whip them. You tussle their hair and you kissed him on the cheek and you send them back to the playground does that does that sound right to you. Yeah it's really that attitude and and there's different colon different attitudes depending on what kind of you know. Rambunctious child is up. And sometimes it's that it's gratitude. It's like there was a japanese. None who her machos. Thank you for everything. i have. No complaints whatsoever jara. That i heard you guys either you or jack say that and i have it on my phone as a reminder at comes up every day as a reminder exactly that line and it's been i love that line i've loved i mean i i started i. I found out about it when my son was about seven or eight or nine and i remember he was a wigner and a veteran are like he really. I'd just say i would just keep saying honey this. Try this try know. Thank you for and it seemed to not make a damn. But i remember one day going to the dentist and i was driving And we hit you know the mother. All traffic jams and and.
You Made It Weird with Pete Holmes
"p tara" Discussed on You Made It Weird with Pete Holmes
"Tara brach. Get into it alot. Hey hi. I can't see anything yet. G give it time katie. It looks as if i just got eyedrops. Put in. And i met the optometrist's and it just everything's a blur. She heads kind. That's all you need. You just came and lovely. Hi tara how are you. What a pleasure good to see you. So eight thirty nine. It is eight thirty in the morning of owl will be joining us in thirty minutes. And i bet she'll be spruced up an nicely looking. I just jumped right on. So i probably look like a person. I've been up since. That's why i said it deal. I figured you were just kind of role that abed. No i'm joking jerkin us up. You'll love the baby. We have a baby that the she's been up since probably six and then she liked kicked and rolled all arrests until about seven. Which is when we got out of bed. That's we've been flown. What a nice way to enter the day. It's a lovely. What around in bed. Lovely way to enter the day absolutely no complaints whatsoever. and how. how is your day going. I really wanted to ask you that question. It sounds just like a question. But i woke up and i just was like i. I'm really excited to talk to tara. 'cause i had one of those mornings for some reason. You know the rubik's cubes of thoughts that you can be confronted with the first thing. They were the wrong ones meeting. Obviously they weren't the wrong ones. They just weren't the ones i wanted. They were thoughts of like stress. They were thoughts of like. It's gonna be a bad day and you know how the the brain likes to do that. It's like not not only this morning. That what you want. But the whole day is fucked. You're fucked and i sort of felt that behind the eight ball feeling and honestly my second thought was. I know you're a spiritual teacher and all these things but tara you're not immune to this. You must wake up some mornings and be like well. The the needle went on the record. Like a really wonky part. And i have to overcome this and i was wondering about is that you relate to that relate. I just look. I mean this morning the i first experience of consciousness with some sort of a clutching feeling in my heart like something bad was going to happen and but what i do is immediately i go. It's cortisol it. just the way cortisol. You know is peaks and goes down. Because we're supposed to like the morning have it starts peaking and we get more stressed and everybody and so many people have that like dread of the day before for no good reason you know. So i tell myself our. Just a chemical that howard. I love that guy who you're going to love by the way and i always forget to say thank you for doing this. Thank you for joining the tobacco so to start talking but we were. We were just talking about how the brain can't really come along on the journey. I know this is pretty deep to start right away. But there's this kind of phenomenon. Both of she and i were surrendering to the idea that the day we die we might have to earn it back. We might wake up and feel panic or feel despair or does not have a lot of faith or not a lot of connection not really feeling in the flow of divine grace. Or whenever you want to say and that's okay. Even the moment of death your brain might be like it's all bullshit. It was all stupid like because it's going to like forget cortisol. It's having a huge survival mechanism. It's it's panicking. it's trying to save. You is trying to give you adrenaline all of these things to get you out of the bed in and live and that's a really hard place to go like just surrender. I you probably know david nick turn. He's like it's like pushing out into the ocean further and further from the shore. And and you just say yes to it and you can die peacefully but your body. I don't know if your body's ever gonna like fully surrender just like you're saying the court is on the morning. It's doing what it thinks you need for. Whatever reason maybe you could speak to that like the brain isn't always going to be okay with whatever your spirit is is kind of evolving to. Does that make any sense. It totally makes sense. I mean we get hijacked. And that's however you wanna think about it. Our survival brain hijacks us all the time really. I mean it happens. All i'm where in some way it seems like this organism is threatened and so then the question is how much lag time until something in us gets that. That's what's going on rather than being completely identified and lost their saen little glimmer of that witness or whatever. We want to call the test. Oh this is just the normal. You know organised mic survival brain hijacking. You know yes the moment that. There's a little bit of recognition. Oh that's what's happening. Then we.
