On this episode of the world famous Sofa King Podcast, we put on our tinfoil hats for a doozy of a conspiracy theory—Project Blue Beam. Blue Beam is perhaps the ultimate conspiracy theory. It has false flag events, the illuminati, natural disasters, holograms, telepathy, space aliens, NASA, and maybe even a dash of Tupac Shakur. It quite simply contains elements of every conspiracy you can think to name. Canadian journalist and conspiracy theorist Serge Monast proposed this strange theory in 1994. He lays out a four step plan that involves the destruction of all centralized religion, telepathic holograms, and the antichrist. This one is a wild ride, but spoiler alert…it may have been Gene Roddenberry all along!     Visit Our Sources: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Serge_Monast https://rationalwiki.org/wiki/Project_Blue_Beam https://allthatsinteresting.com/serge-monast https://www.news18.com/viral/why-project-blue-beam-might-be-the-most-dangerous-conspiracy-theories-ever-8806643.html https://allthatsinteresting.com/project-blue-beam https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Devil%27s_Due_(Star_Trek:_The_Next_Generation)

On this episode of the world famous Sofa King Podcast, there be dragons here! We talk about the roots, mythology, fossil record, and biblical stories that helped the term of the dragon evolve. But there can’t be dragon talk without China getting in on the act since it used to be illegal to even own a picture of a dragon if you weren’t the emperor. From the story of St. George to Thor and the world serpent, we talk about the global phenomenon of the dragon and the differences (and similarities) of the myth around the world.   Visit Our Sources: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dragon https://www.amnh.org/exhibitions/mythic-creatures/dragons/natural-history-of-dragons https://www.bbc.com/future/article/20240208-the-surprising-4000-year-history-of-dragons https://www.livescience.com/25559-dragons.html https://www.amnh.org/exhibitions/mythic-creatures/dragons https://now.northropgrumman.com/did-dragons-exist-exploring-the-mythical-monster-mystery

On this episode of the world famous Sofa King Podcast, we talk about the strange occurrence of sleepwalking. Though it mostly involves innocent movement in someone’s sleep, it can lead a host of more troubling symptoms such as sleep eating (we’re looking at you Brent), sleep talking, and even having sex while asleep. All with no knowledge! So, what causes sleep walking? How can you prevent it? What can you do to safeguard your house, and how did it lead to Brent almost bleeding out and dying one night? Listen, laugh, and learn.   Visit Our Sources: https://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/sleepwalking/symptoms-causes https://www.buzzfeed.com/feynman12/these-sleep-walking-talking-stories-are-iconic-hilarious https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sleepwalking https://my.clevelandclinic.org/health/diseases/21730-sleep-related-eating-disorders https://my.clevelandclinic.org/health/diseases/14292-sleepwalking https://www.nhs.uk/conditions/sleepwalking https://www.webmd.com/sleep-disorders/sleep-related-eating-disorders https://health.clevelandclinic.org/sexsomnia

On this episode of the Sofa King Podcast, we talk about one of the most important and often misunderstood living beings on the planet. That’s right, we talk about trees. At first, this seemed like a boring topic, but once the research started, our minds were blown. The big reveal was that trees have a fungal network weaved into their root systems that trees use talk to each other and share nutrients and resources. There are also things called “Mother Trees” that have a memory of good and bad times stored in their DNA, and they use this fungal network to upload this DNA into younger trees to “teach them” if a threat arises. From talking to birds when they need to eliminate bugs, to alternate alien worlds and what they would look like without lumber, we go deep on this one.

On this episode of the world famous Sofa King Podcast, we continue our ongoing conversation about The State of Artificial Intelligence. Since GPT came out, AI has exploded into every facet of our lives, and we continue our discussion of what has happened most recently. We talk about Elon Musk’s Neuralink and how it may align with his robot the Optimus. It may be our first chance to see true human cyborgs. We talk about what happens when the entire work force gets displaced by AI and robotics and the merits and dangers of the government provided living wage. We also look at the future of music when a computer is better than your local garage band. There is a lot more and maybe even some fart jokes…AI fart jokes? You’ll have to wait and see. If you want to hear us get all high techie, this is the one for you.
