Summary
My guest today is the uber-intelligent and incredibly cool, Jeremy Johnson.
Jeremy is an editor for Reality Sandwich and a polyphonic enthusiast of all things religion, science fiction, and philosophy (I wish I could take credit for the description but I shamelessly pulled it from his bio.) Let's just say Jeremy is interested in a lot of stuff.
One of the things Jeremy and I share a love for is literature and books. Exploring how books affect consciousness was one of my favorite threads of our conversation.
Speaking of books I'm giving away a brand new copy of the book we mention in this episode, Whitley Streiber and Jeffrey Kripal's, "The Super Natural." To enter the contest all you need to do is join the Synchronicity Community by clicking this link and entering your email. Good luck!

| 0:00.0 | This is synchronicity. This is synchronicity. This is synchronicity. This is synchronicity. Welcome to episode 20. It's been 20 episodes. That's pretty crazy. Oh, I should tell you what the show is. Welcome to episode 20 of synchronicity. My guest today is Jeremy. We'll get to Jeremy in a second. Don't you worry. But I wanted to go, first of all, congratulations to Adam in Austin, Texas, |
| 0:40.7 | for winning the book giveaway for Mirabai Starr's Caravan of No Despair. The book is on the way, |
| 0:47.9 | Adam. I know we already spoke, and I told you that, but now everyone knows. If you're wondering |
| 0:53.5 | what that is, every week, I think |
| 0:56.6 | I'm going to do this every week. I'm going to give away a book related to the podcast or something |
| 1:01.5 | that I've read. If there's no book that's related to the podcast, I'm going to give it away. |
| 1:05.6 | So I realize that that is not tremendously useful if the contest is over. So what I'm going to do is give the date |
| 1:14.9 | and tell you how long you have to enter the contest and how to enter the contest. So today's date, |
| 1:21.5 | the day of the release of this is either March 16th or 17th, 2016. So the book contest, the giveaway contest is good for another week. |
| 1:31.2 | So we'll say the 23rd. Actually, it's a little less. I lied. I'm going to announce the winner |
| 1:36.4 | on the 21st of March. So you got about five days to get this out, four or five days. |
| 1:43.0 | So this segue, nailed it. The book that I'm going to be |
| 1:48.6 | giving away this week is The Supernatural, written by Whitley Striber and Jeffrey Kripal or Krippel. |
| 1:55.9 | I don't know how to say his name. I should probably, I don't know how to do it. We talk about |
| 1:59.0 | that in this episode, me and Jeremy. It's an excellent book. You'll hear more about it in this particular episode. Long |
| 2:05.9 | story short, David Silver actually recommended. I check out this book. And it is fascinating. |
| 2:11.8 | It has to do with aliens, ghosts, time travel, quantum physics. It's pretty, it covers the gamut of what we would |
| 2:24.4 | call supernatural, I don't know, phenomena. But it really, using some comparative techniques. |
| 2:34.9 | It really, I think it presents some very interesting ways of looking at things we can't really explain. |
| 2:39.5 | So I tore through that book. |
| 2:41.8 | I think I read it in like four or five days. |
| 2:43.1 | Really great. |
