00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:04.549
There's a certain group that has a hidden agenda, and you don't know about it until they get elected.

00:00:04.790 --> 00:00:06.469
And then whammo, oh, how did that happen?

00:00:06.959 --> 00:00:10.169
But just think critically, but also show up.

00:00:10.230 --> 00:00:14.699
They should wear sponsor jackets so everybody knows who owns them, like the NASCAR drivers.

00:00:14.800 --> 00:00:17.917
Politics, democracy is not a spectator sport.

00:00:17.969 --> 00:00:21.827
We can't wait till November and vote for two poor choices.

00:00:21.887 --> 00:00:23.716
Choices are made way earlier.

00:00:26.908 --> 00:00:27.239
all right.

00:00:27.239 --> 00:00:29.419
Welcome back to the new HUNA podcast.

00:00:29.419 --> 00:00:31.149
Of course, I'm your host, Jon Astacio.

00:00:31.478 --> 00:00:37.338
This is part two of the interview with Suzanne Munson, who is the metaphysical historian.

00:00:37.609 --> 00:00:39.838
So as a highlight to what to expect.

00:00:39.936 --> 00:00:56.036
We continue the conversation with Thomas Jefferson, beyond the grave and the concerns with the government, what to do with all of this information that we've just been talking about for the past two episodes and a peek into Suzanne's future plans as a metaphysical historian.

00:00:56.246 --> 00:01:02.656

00:01:19.420 --> 00:01:19.670
Let's go.

00:01:20.009 --> 00:01:33.037
okay, so, interesting enough, technical difficulties happened a few moments after you mentioned how Thomas Jefferson started mentioning and affirming some conspiracy theories.

00:01:33.337 --> 00:01:43.311
Now, I had to come back and refresh everything just to make sure we can get in what are his thoughts on what people think is going on in the background.

00:01:43.561 --> 00:01:44.611
You may continue.

00:01:45.221 --> 00:01:45.721
Okay.

00:01:46.281 --> 00:02:16.656
Well, I, I never knew what was going to come out, you know, uh, there were a lot of surprises in the interviews and so he, uh, was, when he was expressing his concern, uh, concerns about American government today and about big money, uh, being such an influence and, um, and politicians getting away from the needs and the concerns of average people and feathering their nests with with, uh, the concerns of the wealthy and the big interest.

00:02:17.295 --> 00:02:28.195
Uh, so then he started, he started getting into what, what sounded to me like a conspiracy theory, and I don't subscribe to conspiracy theories, but the more I think about it, the, the more I think he's right.

00:02:28.695 --> 00:02:34.895
Um, he said that there are forces behind the people in the public eye, and we all know that.

00:02:34.895 --> 00:02:38.385
We all know the big money people keep quiet pretty much.

00:02:38.846 --> 00:02:42.415
In fact, some of them are not even known, according to Jefferson.

00:02:43.330 --> 00:02:48.841
But they are the ones who are, um, creating the agendas for the rest of us.

00:02:49.540 --> 00:02:52.300
And they're not well motivated, most of them.

00:02:53.001 --> 00:02:55.031
They're, um, like puppet masters.

00:02:55.031 --> 00:02:59.561
They like to do something and see what the reaction is, just for fun.

00:02:59.600 --> 00:03:00.110
What?

00:03:00.531 --> 00:03:00.911
Okay.

00:03:01.610 --> 00:03:06.580
Because they have the money to buy media and to buy politicians.

00:03:07.281 --> 00:03:10.491
And they are the powers behind the scenes.

00:03:10.804 --> 00:03:21.683
now we all know we can name big money people who are behind the Democratic Party and the Republican Party, but apparently there are even some bigger players than that who were more quiet.

00:03:21.806 --> 00:03:28.877
And, um, so, uh, so then because he's current with the current events, he's aware of the internet.

00:03:29.576 --> 00:03:31.137
And so he said that.

00:03:32.016 --> 00:03:45.477
These powers that are trying to control us, to take our freedom, ultimate freedoms away, uh, have tried to use the media, the usual media, television, radio, newspapers, uh, pamphlets and so on.

00:03:46.176 --> 00:03:49.477
But the internet is something that they can't quite control.

00:03:50.167 --> 00:03:52.926
That's the one thing that's getting away from them.

00:03:53.086 --> 00:03:54.567
And they don't like it.

00:03:54.567 --> 00:03:58.907
What?

00:03:59.891 --> 00:04:03.201
And that, that it can be a vehicle for truth to come out.

00:04:03.201 --> 00:04:06.361
Of course, we know it's a vehicle for falsehoods as well.

00:04:06.701 --> 00:04:09.021
But just take the people in China, you know.

00:04:09.581 --> 00:04:16.682
Um, they're being cut off from the internet from the truth, from what we perceive to be the truth about world

00:04:16.887 --> 00:04:18.906
Yeah, highly manicured internet access.

00:04:19.021 --> 00:04:19.802
yeah, right.

00:04:20.112 --> 00:04:26.612
And in, and in Russia, and in all the totalitarian places who can control the media, they will control the media.

00:04:27.557 --> 00:04:32.817
And I think we should be very, very concerned about the demise of the daily newspaper in this country.

00:04:33.357 --> 00:04:40.026
Um, freedom of the press was just a hallowed value, uh, among the founding fathers.

00:04:40.026 --> 00:04:41.187
It's in the First Amendment.

00:04:41.966 --> 00:04:50.836
And, um, if we get a press that's controlled by special interests as brainwashing us, we're in trouble.

00:04:51.507 --> 00:04:55.057
Now, schools of journalism really didn't start until the 20th century.

00:04:55.687 --> 00:04:59.666
But those who went through those schools were taught to be objective.

00:05:00.526 --> 00:05:02.987
We don't care what your personal feelings are.

00:05:03.336 --> 00:05:04.536
You must be objective.

00:05:05.526 --> 00:05:11.466
Now, I remember I used to work for an old journalist, and I called somebody, um, what did I call him?

00:05:12.237 --> 00:05:13.016
An expert.

00:05:13.067 --> 00:05:15.987
This is at a university PR department.

00:05:16.357 --> 00:05:16.867
Oh, Dr.

00:05:16.867 --> 00:05:18.726
So and so is an expert in something.

00:05:18.737 --> 00:05:20.776
He said, No, you can't say expert.

00:05:20.797 --> 00:05:22.247
You have to say specialist.

00:05:22.706 --> 00:05:24.877
I mean, he was that particular about...

00:05:25.432 --> 00:05:27.831
The language that we use, that it had to be neutral.

00:05:27.927 --> 00:05:27.937
Hmm.

00:05:27.947 --> 00:05:28.317
Mm

00:05:28.581 --> 00:05:38.752
Well, these people now who are, um, on TV particularly, a lot of them are not trained journalists, and they don't value objectivity and the truth.

00:05:39.281 --> 00:05:43.701
If the truth runs counter to their political philosophy, they're going to screw with it.

00:05:43.867 --> 00:05:44.367
hmm.

00:05:44.841 --> 00:05:50.242
And because people are not thinking critically, they swallow the screwed over part.

00:05:51.221 --> 00:05:54.567
And then they mouth it in their own little echo chambers when they go out to dinner.

00:05:55.367 --> 00:05:56.516
I see it all the time.

00:05:57.357 --> 00:05:58.336
Really makes me mad.

00:05:59.567 --> 00:06:01.276
You just got a lot of fans just now.

00:06:03.156 --> 00:06:05.896
laughs laughs You can read between the lines, folks.

00:06:07.387 --> 00:06:07.466
laughs

00:06:07.857 --> 00:06:09.786
And it's interesting how you, how you say that.

00:06:09.786 --> 00:06:18.507
And then also that, um, special interest, the wording, the, has Thomas Jefferson.

00:06:19.057 --> 00:06:24.547
Ever talked about the financial system because it's, there's lots of changes going on right now.

00:06:25.047 --> 00:06:33.476
Um, like from crypto, from crypto to a lot of just a lot of conversation around a recession.

00:06:33.557 --> 00:06:38.177
Did he mention anything like that or was it mostly about government and changes?

00:06:38.877 --> 00:06:40.336
We didn't talk about money.

00:06:40.406 --> 00:06:45.536
He did indicate there There were some very difficult times ahead for us.

00:06:46.107 --> 00:06:47.726
I mean, I've always known that.

00:06:47.747 --> 00:06:49.206
That I'd live through difficult times.

00:06:49.807 --> 00:06:52.377
And, um, I think it was more difficult.

00:06:53.076 --> 00:06:56.476
The government being in serious jeopardy and maybe crashing.

00:06:57.406 --> 00:07:03.877
Uh, you know, um, So, um, No, we didn't talk about monetary issues.

00:07:04.112 --> 00:07:19.461
so mostly morals, politics, getting around corruption, so to speak, which, which would be his plan that you share in your book, and you highlighted a little bit here not too long ago.

00:07:20.451 --> 00:07:40.031
I guess my last question or one of the last questions I have for you is, did you guys get into or, um, how should I say personal sovereignty, that whole language where you are a citizen versus an American and that whole like that?

00:07:40.031 --> 00:07:41.062
He mentioned the U.

00:07:41.062 --> 00:07:41.281
S.

00:07:41.302 --> 00:07:42.791
being a corporation.

00:07:43.492 --> 00:07:45.822
Well, he talked a lot about personal power.

00:07:46.052 --> 00:07:47.822
That we need to take our power

00:07:48.107 --> 00:07:48.987
Okay, let's talk about

00:07:49.062 --> 00:07:56.482
that, uh, that we've insidiously through, insidious things that have happened over the generations.

00:07:56.482 --> 00:08:01.041
We've been losing our freedoms and that we need to take our power back.

00:08:01.932 --> 00:08:09.891
And, um, he said that we should go back and read the Declaration of Independence and actually read the Constitution.

00:08:10.041 --> 00:08:17.541
A lot of people say, oh, that's unconstitutional, but they never read the Constitution and that we should read these founding documents.

00:08:18.221 --> 00:08:23.726
Um, And on the 4th of July, we celebrate the Declaration of Independence, but nobody ever reads it.

00:08:24.166 --> 00:08:28.096
And I included that in the back of the book, the Declaration of Independence.

00:08:28.797 --> 00:08:46.136
And, um, so one thing he said that was kind of cute, uh, Um, we're talking about the Declaration of Independence, and he said there were some people who were quibbling over words like, all men are created equal, instead of all people are created equal.

00:08:46.721 --> 00:09:00.062
Of course, that's a whole different dialogue, but the medium said that, um, you know, that you shouldn't quibble over some things like that, that they're universal truths, that the Declaration is meant for all people today, for sure.

00:09:00.881 --> 00:09:17.841
Uh, and she said that he, he gave a raspberry on that, about people quibbling over minor details of the Declaration, you know, and they should be really studying it for the great truths that, He presented that were not original to Emma.

00:09:18.241 --> 00:09:22.201
They were mostly taken from John Locke, the philosopher.

00:09:23.096 --> 00:09:24.106
Okay, cool.

00:09:24.576 --> 00:09:33.086
So, yeah, so He is totally for, in favor of bringing power back, back to the people.

00:09:33.322 --> 00:09:33.782
Back to the

00:09:34.037 --> 00:09:41.927
And a big part of that is to re read the documents, the founding documents, the, um, like you just said.

00:09:42.317 --> 00:09:46.116
Um, did he say, he did say hard times are coming.

00:09:46.506 --> 00:09:51.626
Um, did he say any type of preparation for that or things that you should...

00:09:51.937 --> 00:09:53.376
Yeah, any preparation for that?

00:09:54.076 --> 00:09:57.996
Well, just that we should be, we should be thinking more critically.

00:09:58.437 --> 00:10:01.567
That we should be voting for ethical people.

00:10:02.427 --> 00:10:04.397
People who have a high sense of ethics.

00:10:05.076 --> 00:10:06.057
Uh, number one.

00:10:06.361 --> 00:10:10.001
And, um, you know, of course he'd be for bipartisanship and so on.

00:10:10.451 --> 00:10:17.792
Uh, he wasn't specific about the troubles they had, but I think we, we're definitely in for a hard time.

00:10:17.922 --> 00:10:24.432
Um, but, but then at the end of most of the chapters, I always try to end them on a little bit of a positive note.

00:10:24.922 --> 00:10:34.802
And so he will say every now and then, I do see at the end that things will write themselves, that truth will out, that truth will always has a way of finding its way out.

00:10:35.501 --> 00:10:54.302
But right now the politicians up there are the ones who come in with a good purpose are in a thicket of thorns and everywhere they turn, uh, they're stopped when they want to create reforms and, and, and, um, have a higher sense of ethics for, for what's going on now.

00:10:54.741 --> 00:11:03.182
Now, our representative from around here, Abigail Spandberger, she's got a measure in Congress, uh, to keep the.

00:11:03.897 --> 00:11:10.366
People in Congress from insider trading, you know, duh, but that hasn't gone anywhere.

00:11:10.485 --> 00:11:12.506
Ha ha ha ha.

00:11:12.647 --> 00:11:25.226
Yeah, there's a lot of changes we need to have happen, but again, like, more people are waking up and I like how you said about truth being something that is going to just show itself.

00:11:25.336 --> 00:11:27.476
It's just a matter of time.

00:11:27.892 --> 00:11:32.721
As people wake up, people pay attention, it's going to be more obvious.

00:11:32.751 --> 00:11:34.731
Decisions are going to be more obvious.

00:11:35.162 --> 00:11:50.861
Uh, any takeaways as we close out today from any advice that you may give someone that may be on a similar journey to you where maybe not a historian, but someone who's looking for answers to connect with someone on the other side.

00:11:51.412 --> 00:11:53.062
Whether or not to go for it.

00:11:53.312 --> 00:12:03.501
And then, um, anything that you feel that you've learned based off of your experiences of that communication with the other side and being a metaphysical historian.

00:12:04.201 --> 00:12:08.991
Well, don't be, I hate to use a cliche, but I will use a cliche.

00:12:09.831 --> 00:12:11.761
Don't be afraid to think out of the box.

00:12:12.501 --> 00:12:16.022
Um, I've given talks on the metaphysical Thomas Jefferson.

00:12:16.721 --> 00:12:19.052
to kindred spirits who think it's wonderful.

00:12:19.542 --> 00:12:26.221
I've also given talks to what I call regular groups, and half of them thought I was crazy.

00:12:26.701 --> 00:12:28.922
Uh, and so I have to live with that.

00:12:28.922 --> 00:12:33.501
I kind of, um, and I'm still doing the metaphysical history.

00:12:33.881 --> 00:12:38.312
I've done one, a book on Leonard Cohen, and I've completed the musician.

00:12:38.741 --> 00:12:43.672
I'm thinking about doing one on, um, Stephen, Stephen Jobs.

00:12:44.216 --> 00:12:45.106
That's going to be great.

00:12:45.116 --> 00:12:45.856
Steve Jobs.

00:12:46.167 --> 00:12:46.767
Steve Jobs.

00:12:46.767 --> 00:12:46.937
Yeah.

00:12:47.197 --> 00:12:50.626
Uh, mainly because of what he said on his deathbed.

00:12:51.437 --> 00:12:53.667
Most people know what he said on his deathbed.

00:12:53.986 --> 00:12:55.667
He said, Oh, wow.

00:12:55.787 --> 00:12:56.706
Oh, wow.

00:12:56.777 --> 00:12:57.366
Oh, wow.

00:12:57.716 --> 00:12:58.846
I want to know what he saw.

00:12:59.447 --> 00:13:00.567
That's the way I'm going to start the

00:13:00.897 --> 00:13:03.667
And then when you start that journey, I want to hear it.

00:13:04.216 --> 00:13:04.586
Yeah.

00:13:04.976 --> 00:13:11.476
And, uh, then, uh, I also want to do one on, uh, the metaphysical Van Gogh.

00:13:12.157 --> 00:13:13.216
Because I visited.

00:13:14.047 --> 00:13:16.697
The mental hospital where he was for his last year.

00:13:16.966 --> 00:13:20.384
And I had a strong feeling that he had, might have something to say.

00:13:20.923 --> 00:13:32.354
From his recovered state, from his normal state, uh, you know, we, when we have troubles in this plane, they, they fade away.

00:13:32.693 --> 00:13:37.083
You know, if we're handicapped in this plane, we're not handicapped on the other side.

00:13:37.913 --> 00:13:39.703
I'd like to know what his perspective is.

00:13:40.134 --> 00:13:47.844
But I would just say, um, As far as politics go, read everything you can that's objective, from objective people.

00:13:48.543 --> 00:13:52.783
Um, try to vary your TV watching, if you're watching the same channel all the time.

00:13:53.533 --> 00:13:57.394
Um, study candidates, know what their hidden agendas are.

00:13:58.073 --> 00:14:03.114
There's a certain group that has a hidden agenda, and you don't know about it until they get elected.

00:14:03.764 --> 00:14:05.443
And then whammo, oh, how did that happen?

00:14:05.933 --> 00:14:11.849
But, um, um, Um, just think critically, but also show up.

00:14:11.928 --> 00:14:19.788
Um, when I give my talks on, on history, regular history, I end it with a bunch of jokes about politicians.

00:14:20.788 --> 00:14:27.399
And, um, one of them is, um, they should wear sponsor jackets so everybody knows who owns them, like the NASCAR drivers.

00:14:27.798 --> 00:14:28.749
Everybody likes that.

00:14:29.418 --> 00:14:31.249
Robin, that's from Robin Williams.

00:14:31.288 --> 00:14:37.839
But, um, that, um, Politics, democracy is not a spectator sport.

00:14:38.528 --> 00:14:43.259
We can't wait till November and vote for two poor choices.

00:14:43.698 --> 00:14:45.528
Choices are made way earlier.

00:14:46.099 --> 00:14:50.869
They're made at the precinct level and then at the primary stage in June.

00:14:51.568 --> 00:14:56.139
I knew a very good candidate who should have been governor of the state.

00:14:56.839 --> 00:15:05.019
Who lost out in the June primaries because all of his country club, college educated friends thought they could wait until November to vote for him.

00:15:05.479 --> 00:15:08.869
And they didn't show up to the June primaries and he lost there.

00:15:09.168 --> 00:15:12.139
Okay, they didn't understand the system.

00:15:12.688 --> 00:15:18.479
And I wouldn't know anything about precinct meetings if I hadn't belonged to the League of Women Voters for a while.

00:15:18.749 --> 00:15:23.269
I didn't learn it in high school, you know, high school civics.

00:15:23.328 --> 00:15:23.989
good to know.

00:15:24.058 --> 00:15:24.548
Cool.

00:15:24.999 --> 00:15:28.979
So show up, show up at the local level, that's where the decisions are made.

00:15:29.339 --> 00:15:33.688
And that's where a lot of very badly motivated people are gathering now.

00:15:34.208 --> 00:15:36.678
They know how the system operates, they know.

00:15:37.089 --> 00:15:40.219
Like Woody Allen said, 80% of life is just showing up.

00:15:40.609 --> 00:15:45.489
They show up and they get their candidates into the system.

00:15:46.188 --> 00:15:46.739
Got it.

00:15:46.869 --> 00:15:47.158
Okay,

00:15:47.298 --> 00:15:48.458
So show up, show

00:15:48.629 --> 00:15:49.739
show up.

00:15:50.658 --> 00:15:52.399
I, I definitely stand behind that, right?

00:15:52.408 --> 00:15:53.129
Showing up.

00:15:53.629 --> 00:16:02.408
You show up, you learn stuff, you run into people, you, you may not have any information, but if you appear, someone's gonna have some information for you.

00:16:02.649 --> 00:16:07.668
You're gonna learn just by taking some, some action in some direction, right?

00:16:08.379 --> 00:16:11.714
Um, so, You got some books that are out.

00:16:11.884 --> 00:16:24.173
I definitely want to give you a chance to just highlight the names so that we can all have it in, in one part where people are paying attention to how to find you and what you're, what you're doing right now.

00:16:24.254 --> 00:16:25.453
So I want to give you that time.

00:16:26.094 --> 00:16:26.543
Thank you.

00:16:26.884 --> 00:16:35.553
Uh, I have two books out now on Amazon and online, Barnes and Noble, and another one coming this month, which is a book of poetry, very different.

00:16:36.254 --> 00:16:44.244
But, um, the first one is called Jefferson's Godfather, and it's a biography of Jefferson's most important teacher, George Wythe.

00:16:44.456 --> 00:16:59.451
And that is the story, the wonderful story about how The power of one, the power of this one individual to train public servants and to train them to be ethical servants of the public in, in high office.

00:16:59.735 --> 00:17:02.885
And then the second one is called the metaphysical Thomas Jefferson.

00:17:03.605 --> 00:17:06.026
And, um, we've already talked about that.

00:17:06.726 --> 00:17:07.506
Very cool.

00:17:07.556 --> 00:17:07.996
Very cool.

00:17:08.405 --> 00:17:09.395
Hey, you know what?

00:17:10.375 --> 00:17:14.105
Give me a heads up when you communicate with Steve Jobs.

00:17:14.195 --> 00:17:16.965
I think that's going to be a great conversation if you're down.

00:17:17.526 --> 00:17:20.826
Um, and thank you for coming onto the show.

00:17:20.885 --> 00:17:22.486
A lot of really good stories.

00:17:22.486 --> 00:17:23.766
We talked about Ghostbusters.

00:17:23.766 --> 00:17:29.365
We talked about mediums connecting to the other side how Thomas Jefferson didn't like what was going on.

00:17:29.365 --> 00:17:38.115
So I'm excited to, uh, let everybody and I'm excited to actually hear what people have to say about this, uh, this topic in this conversation.

00:17:38.115 --> 00:17:39.777
So thank you again for coming on.

00:17:39.953 --> 00:17:40.503
Thank you.

00:17:40.691 --> 00:17:41.401
Good to see you.
