episode The Jesus-Elvis Connection artwork

The Jesus-Elvis Connection

Our first chat [https://thegodabovegod.com/elvis-jesus-philip-k-dick/] was a hunka, hunka burning gnosis, and the sequel will be even more electric. Author, seeker, and Elvis historian Christopher J. Barber [https://www.youtube.com/@christopherjbarber] joins me on GenX Wasteland, and this time he’ll shake his hips on his new book, The Jesus-Elvis Connection. We’ll explore the uncanny parallels between Jesus Christ and a legendary musical “King.” Christopher shares a vast collection of evidence, ranging from biographical coincidences and numerological patterns to scriptural prophecies and reports of miraculous healing powers. This journey includes the question of whether these extraordinary similarities are mere chance or point toward a deeper, messianic mystery. Our first interview: https://thegodabovegod.com/elvis-jesus-philip-k-dick/ [https://thegodabovegod.com/elvis-jesus-philip-k-dick/] More on Christopher: https://www.youtube.com/@christopherjbarber This is a public episode.

episode Elvis, Jesus & Philip K. Dick artwork

Elvis, Jesus & Philip K. Dick

Join me as we discuss three coolest saviors. Author, seeker, and Elvis historian Christopher J. Barber [https://www.youtube.com/@christopherjbarber] will take us on a fascinating and rewarding journey on the connection between these historic and consciousness-changing figures, and how their relevance is more important than ever beyond the mainstream narratives. Our discussion will delve into powerful motifs and archetypes, including the divine twin, the trickster, and the hero with a thousand faces. It will be a hunka, hunka burning gnosis!   This is a public episode.

episode Pop Culture Burnout and Latchkey Trauma artwork

Pop Culture Burnout and Latchkey Trauma

This episode of GenX Wasteland dives into the unique collision of pop culture overload and the lingering effects of latchkey childhoods that defined a generation raised with independence, isolation, and endless 80s/90s media as both escape and emotional outlet. I can’t think of anyone better for this grunge odyssey than Mark Radulich [https://linktr.ee/markkind76]. We explore how constant consumption of movies, music, and reboots can fuel burnout while simultaneously reopening old wounds from an era of minimal parental oversight and maximum self-reliance. Through raw Gen X perspective, the conversation unpacks resilience, nostalgia, and why today’s endless streaming cycle hits different for those who grew up with MTV scarcity and mixtape therapy.

episode Killing Ahriman artwork

Killing Ahriman

You may think it’s an odd title, but what did you expect from Gen X? And it’s another Aeon Byte/GenX Wasteland collaboration to celebrate the holidays in a high weirdness way. The Skeptic Shaman, Rachel White [https://www.totemreadings.com/], joins me to chat about dark forces, synchronicities, the Promethean fire, and what a s**t show 2025 has been. We’ll discuss the ups and downs of this year’s existence, providing insights and revelations on how to navigate the simulation and tap into our inner shaman. Dr. Cherlyn Jones [https://substack.com/@drcherlynhtjones] will join us to share Jungian and other high-level takes. This is a public episode.

En fantastisk app med et enormt stort udvalg af spændende podcasts. Podimo formår virkelig at lave godt indhold, der takler de lidt mere svære emner. At der så også er lydbøger oveni til en billig pris, gør at det er blevet min favorit app.

Rigtig god tjeneste med gode eksklusive podcasts og derudover et kæmpe udvalg af podcasts og lydbøger. Kan varmt anbefales, om ikke andet så udelukkende pga Dårligdommerne, Klovn podcast, Hakkedrengene og Han duo 😁 👍
Podimo er blevet uundværlig! Til lange bilture, hverdagen, rengøringen og i det hele taget, når man trænger til lidt adspredelse.
