Episode Summary

In this thought-provoking episode of Fire in the Cosmos, we delve into the intersection of fiction, myth, and legend with the paranormal, the supernatural, and the mystical! Josh takes us on a meandering ontological journey into the ecology of the anomalous, hierarchical realities, and co-created experience as we examine what the wider body of data on the extraordinary — unshackled from a reductionist, materialist paradigm — could suggest about our relationship with the world(s) around us! Get ready for a steady dose of fairies, Bigfoot, death, deities, aliens, and UFOs; and this time around, add in a dash of consciousness!
