Premium Episode 82: Ira ‘the Unicorn’ Einhorn pt. 2, or, Planetary Enzyme and/or the PT Barnum of Hippiedom feat. Reid
🕑 Added 2024-01-05 12:16:36 +0000 UTC(part 2 of 3)
Today I'm joined by Reid (@seriations) to continue our conversation about Ira 'the Unicorn' Einhorn. We get into Einhorn's relationship to Andrija Puharich, his involvement with Earth Day, Bell Telephone company, and the development of "Einhorn's Network". Reid explains the importance of the Diebold Corporation and how this all might be a sophisticated method of OSINT and espionage, among whatever else it may have been.
Note: in the episode, Reid said that he hadn't nailed down the name of the guy who introduced Einhorn, and mistakenly said that Geller was introduced via an American army attaché. Reid later found that this was Paul Henshaw, the head biophysicist for the Atomic Energy Commission. In 1947, Henshaw was on the US scientific team that studied radiation after-effects in Hiroshima. This same Henshaw introduced Ira Einhorn to Andrija Puharich. Geller was introduced to Puharich by Itzhak Bentov, an Israeli scientist, army officer, and mystic.

JPRDL. It is obvious you guys have never been to Germany, and if you have, you have never been to any beach there. Most people are naked, even really old ones, so the view is far from pleasant. Yet, nobody protests and nobody gives a fuck. It might have changed with the influx of muslims, but I doubt it.

Interestingly, a reverse of this is known to happen to ordinary stage magicians, know-it-alls, and so on, who discover during their normal stage-magic act that they somehow know actual, unknowable, private details about the randos in their live audiences.

Re: Uri Geller being caught faking shit: A-list musicians stay Ready To Lip-Synch, Just In Case their voices go hoarse during the next concert tour, since some prefer to deliver a semi-fake (but still lit) show, rather than sing like crap or full-on cancel on their fans. Similarly, [professional / celebrity] psychics will admit (if asked in a quiet, respectful way) that they go "well prepared" to their big-media interviews and sold-out stage acts -- with stage-magic gizmos, mentalist routines, and the like -- Just In Case they're having an Off Day with their ESP but still want to deliver a strong performance,
