New Thinking Allowed Audio Podcast

InPresence host, Jeffrey Mishlove, PhD, is author of The Roots of Consciousness, Psi Development Systems, and The PK Man. Between 1986 and 2002 he hosted and co-produced the original Thinking Allowed public television series. He is the recipient of the only doctoral diploma in “parapsychology” ever awarded by an accredited university (University of California, Berkeley, 1980). For many years he served as president of the non-profit Intuition Network, an organization dedicated to creating a world in which all people were supported and encouraged in developing inner intuitive abilities. Here Jeff describes three different types of experimenter effects that can, potentially, contaminate scientific studies. The first of these involves influence experimental subjects through direct statements, subtle hints, and non-verbal cues. Typically, the use of control groups and double-blind protocols protects against this. The second type of experimenter effect involves the use of Questionable Research Practices (QRPs). The third, and most serious, is the possibility of experimenter psi. The best way to protect against this possibility is to focus on the magnitude of psi in our experiments — rather than the process.

For many years he served as president of the non-profit Intuition Network, an organization dedicated to creating a world in which all people were supported and encouraged in developing inner intuitive abilities. Here Jeff notes that he could divide his life into two phases: before and after psychedelics. Before psychedelics, growing up as a teenager in Wisconsin, he imbibed alcohol liberally. In Wisconsin, it was almost a patriotic duty to drink milk on weekdays — and beer on weekends. He also notes that he has personally witnessed or known of many tragic circumstances resulting from alcohol use and abuse. He regards 12-step programs as a positive social contributing resulting from alcohol addiction.

Here Jeff explains why he generally trusts mainstream media, even though he realizes that their coverage of parapsychology and consciousness exploration is often biased. He references discussions with his cousin, journalism professor, Steven V. Roberts. He also shares details of journalistic malpractice involving two individuals whom he admires — Jean Houston and Bob Woodward.

Here Jeff describes his experience of being libelled in 1980, as well as the six-year long legal battle that followed. Eventually Jeff emerged victorious. Nevertheless, the lawsuit took its toll. A particular difficulty for those who have been libelled is dealing with the response from former friends and supporters who distance themselves and take a “wait and see” attitude toward the situation. Jeff then points out that one of his favorite guests, Jason Reza Jorjani, is now suffering from a libel much worse than the one he endured.

Here Jeff shares his recollections regarding the use of psychedelic drugs — going back to the late 1960s. He emphasizes the importance of “set and setting” and points out that, while he experienced more than 100 psychedelic sessions, they were all in the context of philosophical inquiry and self-exploration. His stable personality was also a positive factor. He describes engaging in lengthy conversations with Hardin B. Jones, a medical physicist who denigrated psychedelic drug use.

Here Jeff describes some informal tests he performed involving modification of cloud formations. He presents this in the context of his original research on “the PK man” Ted Owens. He also links to YouTube demonstrations of ostensible PK weather control by Michael Grubb. And, he shares information about a study proposed by a student of atmospheric science.

Here Jeff shares some experiences after attending (and keynoting at) the 40th conference of the United States Psychotronics Association — specifically with reference to the arcane field of radionics. He characterizes it as magical rituals with technological trappings and refers to several anecdotes regarding its effectiveness. He also notes that his mentor, Arthur M. Young (inventor of the Bell Helicopter) was a radionics enthusiast.

For many years he served as president of the non-profit Intuition Network, an organization dedicated to creating a world in which all people were supported and encouraged in developing inner intuitive abilities. Here Jeff discusses one of the most well-attested findings in parapsychology. People who believe that they can perform well on a test of ESP tend to do so; while people who do not have confidence in their ability tend to score at chance levels of below. Statistically significant psi scoring, below chance expectation, is known as psi-missing. Jeff integrates this finding with our general understanding of the role of belief systems in human performance behavior.

For many years he served as president of the non-profit Intuition Network, an organization dedicated to creating a world in which all people were supported and encouraged in developing inner intuitive abilities. Here Jeff reflects on the process initiated by these monologues, both for himself and for the viewers. He also reflects on the comment of one viewer who suggested that InPresence seems to be morphing into a “vanity project”. This raises the question of whether, in spite of good intentions, his own ego is sneaking its way into gaining control of the videos.
