Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga is Australia's Biggest, Most Expensive FLOP to Date?🎥🎇🎬😎

I saw the new "Mad Max" movie on opening day with my younger son and we both loved it, but apparently, according to the movie's Wikipedia page -

" As of 30 May 2024 [the anniversary of Joan of Arc being burnt at the stake], 'Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga' has grossed $37.2 million in the United States and Canada, and $32.8 million in other territories, for a worldwide total of $70 million.[3][4] Its debut has been described as "disappointing", having the lowest box office takings on the Memorial Day weekend since 1995."

Old story, new tricks?

Maybe it's just off to a slow start?

I Said I Would Listen to This Interview Again at a Later Date ... and I Did, Today?😀👂

Jake Kotze, Synchromystic - from 2010

And it's still one of the best that Mike has done at the 'Hidden Experience' and 'The Unseen' podcasts sites in my opinion.

The Liminal Phrames Podcast

I was listening to an episode of the 'Liminal Phrames' podcast yesterday called 'Embracing the Complex Unknown' where the co-host Darren King tells fellow co-host Nathan at the beginning of the podcast episode about all the fun of running a marathon, and then I see a story in the news about a Brazilian mother who was nearly prevented from winning a marathon, because she had requested before the race that her partner should greet her near the finish line so she could give her daughters a hug, but that was before she realized she was actually going to win it and couldn't stop before the line without losing the race:-)

POC : 102 -Mind, Matter & Meaning

I had not heard of Darren King or his online moniker "ExoAcademian" before listening to a recent "Hidden Experience" podcast episode featuring Darren King.

 A "Locked" Hidden Experience
 Patreon Podcast?

I can't understand why this episode is "locked" at Mike Clelland's "Hidden Experience" Patreon site, while that same episode is available for free on the Apple "Hidden Experience" podcast site?

Darren King/ExoAcademian-
in conversation

I never would have listened to this podcast episode if it wasn't free for me to listen to, so I think Mike has made a big mistake locking the first part of that podcast episode behind a paywall.

Sure Mike, keep the second part of the episode behind a paywall by all means for a cash grab, but if you are serious about getting this info out there to Joe Q public, then I think you are making a mistake locking this first part of the conversation away on your Patreon site.

I haven't listened to the second part of the conversation, but I ain't gonna pay to either.

I go with the flow when it comes to listening to podcasts, and I only listen to free ones.  

Point of Convergence Podcast

I'm not into the UFO thing, like Mike and Darren seem to be, but I do like the other woo woo subjects they discuss on their podcasts, like the subject of shamanism and synchronicity ... and even owls.

From a philosophical standpoint I find it interesting just what these two blokes feel like they are "experiencing" in their lives when it comes to "experiencers", and I find it interesting to see where the "flow" will take them both in the future.

Darren King also co-hosts a podcast with Nathan called 'Liminal Phrames', I found out about through listening to Mike's free podcast episode over at Apple Podcasts:-)

The Liminal Phrames Podcast

So, listening to Mike's free "Hidden Experience" podcast episodes are really paying off for me when it comes to listening to other free podcast shows:-)

Darren King (AKA ExoAcademian):
 Point of Convergence

Actually, I realize now that I have heard of the ExoAcadmian before, as I wrote about listening to him at Kelly Chase's podcast site in this post -

What is it with the green eyes and alien's meme?

Or the all-seeing eyes Jack?

24TH ANNUAL MCMENAMINS UFO FESTIVAL

Funnily enough, I have one of those eyes stuck on the shelf above my computer screen, as I found it on the ground as I was walking to my car one morning and kept it, because it reminded me of the eyes in the movie 'Everything Everywhere All at Once';-)

Everything Everywhere All at Once ... Again?

I also thought it was synchy that after listening to Darren and Mike talk about shamanism, rivers and "going with the flow", that this Microsoft browser screensaver of the Amazon River has been up all day on my computer, whenever I have kicked it out of rest mode:-)

MONKEY?!🐒🐵

When I was sorting donations at the Op Shop on the anniversary of my older brother's death, I came across a stuffed toy monkey that looked quite similar to the monkey I once owned and gave to him to keep when he was put in a home not long before he died.

The only difference was my old monkey that I gave him had a hat and was wearing a t-shirt and may have been a shade darker brown than the one I came across on Friday.

I have never come across a monkey like it while sorting donations in this Op Shop, which I have worked in a few days a week for over a year, so to come across this monkey on the anniversary of my brother's passing was an eerie coincidence to say the least. 

I had to buy it to show my family members and it sits in my living room (ironically) until I can show my youngest son, then I'll probably give it to my niece's little boy who was born on Saturday.

I wrote about the monkey I once owned in this old post about the Day of the Dead (ironically) -

Sing & Don't Cry

I also watched the late Morgan Spurlock directed 'The Simpsons 20th Anniversary Special - In 3-D! On Ice!'  yesterday for the first time in a shaky handheld camera recording of the show in a You Tube.

And what does Morgan mention in that Simpsons Special, but a monkey.

Doh!

If life ain't funny it certainly is ironic, I reckon.

(November 7, 1970 - May 23, 2024)

I saw the sad news this morning of the passing of Morgan Spurlock, who is probably best known for the movie/documentary that came out 20 years ago called 'Super-Size Me'. 

Super Size Me (2004)

I might have to blow the dust off my 'Super-Size Me' DVD and give it a spin today and maybe go for a drive through my local McDonalds drive thru and order a Big Mac and fries for lunch and eat them in honour of Morgan's life, and maybe follow up by watching a few other movies and TV shows he made, during the next week.

When it comes to the search for truth, it's hard to tell who is lying to you, just for the sake of making a quick buck, I think.

Morgan Spurlock, Super Size Me filmmaker, dead at 53

Cheers.🍻

I first wrote about David Metcalfe in the Year of the Ox -

And now here he is again in the Year of the Dragon popping up again on the re-launched 'Hidden Experience' podcast -

I'm glad to hear that Mike has re-launched his 'Hidden Experience' podcast, but I'm only listening to the free ones on Apple Podcasts.
On a synchromystic note, I also just listened to the latest 'Let It In' podcast featuring a guy named Bill Letson, who mentions NDEs and shamanic drug trips that resembled scenes out of Whitley Strieber's 'Communion' movie, his words not mine.

Color Out of Space (film)

Maybe it was lucky for Chris that he was watching 'Cocaine Bear' and not 'Color Out of Space' when he had his bad trip on May the 4th?

I watched it on Amazon Prime after hearing David Metcalfe tell Mike about the movie on the 'Hidden Experience' podcast and I wouldn't want to have been tripping out on mushrooms while watching that one.

Loving Lovecraft?

Funnily enough, I listened to a February 2024 podcast (above) featuring Mike Clelland where he admits to never having read Lovecraft's stories.

Then David tells Mike about Amanda Radcliffe working as an advisor for the making of 'Color Out of Space' and the weird things that went on surrounding the making of that movie.

And Mike then says he knows her, so that would be a very interesting future podcast I would think.

Amanda Mariamne Radcliffe

One of the quotes from the 2020 movie 'Color Out of Space' I liked was when Nic Cage's character says, "The dream you dream alone is just a dream, to dream you dream together is reality".

Mike then mentions a book from 1969 I haven't read yet, which was made into a movie in 1972 I haven't seen yet, called 'Slaughterhouse Five'.

'Slaughterhouse Five' is one of the '1001 Books You Have to Read, Before You Die', so maybe I should read that one out of the chronological order that I'm trying to read most of these books in?

Falling Man Falls Well Short of Being a Great Book?🌇

Maybe I'll have to read the graphic novel discussed in the You Tube below, as well?

I find it ironic that Mike started off his podcast with David Metcalfe in the future, as Mike says he recorded it in May 2025, which should be May 2024:-P

I hope Mike leaves that mistake in the beginning of that podcast episode and doesn't re-edit it out, as it seems to go with the subject matter in the podcast.

I find it ironic that Kurt was born on November 11th, which to us Aussies is also known as Remembrance Day.

I also like how Mike mentions his mention in the movie 'Skyman', a movie I have written about quite a bit in the past on this blog -
