If you are curious about the feeding frenzy in the Montery Bay lately, it’s the large anchovy schools of fish feeding the other critters, from dolphins and whales to birds, otters, and sea lions. Sounds good for the creatures, but there is this little thing (that has happened before) called an anchovy die-off that has ecological consequences..

MIT educated Bruce McHenry checks in, not so much for discussing his speciality, transportation, but to inform us of the Fediverse and their latest forum on breaking walled gardens open and connecting them into a free, open and decentralized social network. This could change the way you relate (or likely not relate) to social media. Meet the people that want to do this..Enjoy!
Listen Now to 77 Live from Maui
This week we broadcast from Maui with a wonderful selection of friends who clue us in to what’s happening in this Hawaiian paradise. It’s been a year since the horrible Lahaina fires and recovery has been slow and agonizing to many. Ed Ellsworth gives us an update on that situation. To help recover the Aloha spirit of the island, the Maui Arts and Cultural Center in partnership with The Makana Aloha Foundation and County of Maui Office of Economic Development, sponsored a professional production of the famous Broadway play, Man of la Mancha, starring former Broadway actor/singer Richard Cray, and Hawaii music legend, Amy Hānaialiʻi Gilliom. Richard is a big fan of our podcast and we interview him about his epic role of Don Quixote, and the play’s ability to lift the spirits of all who see it. His partner, Greg Panos, shares with us some of the innovations he sees in the use of virtual and augmented reality and AI music and visuals in enhancing a production’s impact.

Maui maker faire creator Jerry Isdale joins us to share info on Maui arts and tech projects currently underway, his latest works involving dancers, and an update on the formidable looking high tech installations at the top of the local volcano, Haleakalā. Enjoy!

We are briefly back in town, before heading to Maui for a couple of weeks, enough to produce one local show! If the molecule DDL-920 works for humans as well as mice, beyond slowing cognitive decline it may actually restore memories! I you are excited about creating imagery with AI, consider the new Grok-2 image generator, which has far fewer restriction on what you can create than just about every other offering in the field. And in Space News, it would appear that our super valuable metal asteroid, 16 Psyche is rusting, WTF?
Our guest, local RFK Jr. supporter Ryan Sarnataro discusses the upcoming presidential election with us, and helps us understand how RFK Jr. is still relevant in the race, especially in his ability to affect Trump supporters. It has also been said that he has so many skeletons in the closet that if they could all come out and vote, he’d win the election! We look at some of those skeletons as well as the core issues in this scintillating politcal discussion with Ryan, Bobby, and us. Enjoy!

Listen Now to Dr. Jonathan Trent
Transcript
Interestingly Dr. Trent had his start in oceanography and the study of small water-based lifeforms at UCSC back in the 1970’s as an undergraduate. Later at Scripps Institution of Oceanography and a post doc in Germany at the Max Planck Institute for Biochemistry he became one of the world’s experts in how biology was able to adapt to the most extreme conditions on Earth imaginable. He was brought back home to NASA Ames, where he, as an astrobiologist delved deeply into how such life might exist elsewhere in the solar system. NASA did an extensive interview of his career, posted here.
Dr. Jonathan Trent
Now, semi-retired in the Santa Cruz area, he brings home his knowledge of extreme forms of life in creating solutions to some of our biggest issues of today, namely the escalating food, water, and energy crisis. His latest project is called “UpCycle Systems,” and its goal is to create a cohesive green life support system for our growing need of Data Centers, places that are needed for cloud computing, AI, Crypto, memory storage, etc.
In Dr. Trent’s vision, data centers will not simply use massive amounts of water and power, they will generate such resources by turning our organic waste into clean power and water, with excess energy to share. This works through the combination of several innovative technologies, including bioreactors and fuel cells. I think you’ll enjoy hearing Dr. Trent’s story, we sure did! Enjoy..
UpCycle Data Centers that will contribute clean water and energy to the community instead of taking it.

Opiods have been a serious issue for some time and there is some relief in the form of alternative pain drugs soon to hit the market. And in a study of psilocybin, the active ingredient in magic mushrooms, researchers have disovered more detail and how they may work, with the help of MRI imaging of the subject’s brains as they are tripping.

Listen Now to Katrina Vaillancourt on QAnon Rabbit Hole
Transcript
A professional mediator trained in Nonviolent Communication and a dedicated Bernie Sanders supporter, she found herself unexpectedly spiraling down the rabbit hole of QAnon, triggered by watching the “Fall of the Cabal” series, about how a cabal of Satanic cannibalistic child molesters operating a global child sex trafficking ring runs the Deep State, and hence the world..and that there were ‘good guys’, like Donald Trump, that would save us from this dark swamp of humanity. She speaks of “Pastel Q,” on how QAnon propaganda was targeted toward Bernie type people like her, creating and enhancing an emotional bond to their narrative.
In our interview, Katrina, with her husband Stephen, speaks of how she was captivated by the QAnon movement, how it affected her, and how she came to her senses and saw the movement from a more wholistic perspective, thanks in part to her use of NVC and communication with people outside of the QAnon world, like her husband. A profound story of losing and then regaining one’s way, her story is one of hope, and staying sane in our turbulent world, a world further complicated by more and more fake news and false narratives of what is transpiring around us. Enjoy..

It’s Summertime and living is fun, unless you are on a deep space mission. Turns out our kidneys are particularly sensitive to radiation in space, failing after only two years..oh no, what now? Any solutions? We think so!
Harvard Cryptoterrestrial GradAnd finally, top academics are suggesting to their brethren that now is the time to consider more expanded concepts of the alien presence. Ideas like advanced reptilians living underground, staying invisible to the likes of us, transdimensional beings moving through space and time in unusual ways, ships that enter the earth through volcanoes, the ‘other’ intermingling and living with us for generations, doing who knows what to our minds. Science Fiction or Fact? At least such ideas are now being considered more seriously, or at least sincerely.
Time sensitive this week is a sacred whale cruise in the Monterey Bay, hosted by Michele Newman, a psychic, healer, shamanness, and player of the crystal bowls. Mrs. Future (Sun) beautifully interviews Michele about this upcoming cruise (Saturday June 22), and if you feel it’s time to connect with Whales in this way, here’s an “Opportunity Knocks” card! :-)
Our big AI story this week is about applying the rigorous scientific methods used by SETI (Search for Extra Terrestrial Intelligence (to investatigating and evaluating) the growing intelligence of the AIs. Not a perfect match, but lots of cross pollenation here!
And we end with callers, including “Master Now” who answers the question of the hour, “Which came first in the timeline, Love or Fun?” Enjoy!!

Though we covered a fair number of topics in today’s podcast, we kept coming back to discussing the health benefits of fungi, from how they assist the ATP Kreb cycle in generating bodily energy to memory enhancement and longevity. We also had the priviledge of once again speaking with Gabrielle Cianfrani, who has created an adaptogenic blend of 14 fungi for optimal health. And there’s something about Ergothioneine and improved cognition and energy.. Go figure.. Meanwhile, Starship Test #4 will be flying shortly as will the Dreamchaser space plane!

‘Twas a busy weekend for us, with back-to-back dinner parties, and a visit to Whiskey Hill Farms for a tour by David Blum, author of the best seller, “Alcohol Can Be a Gas.” Besides his innovative alcohol distillary, his experimental farm is growing a number of unusual crops that could support small farmers, such as Wasabi, a plant with a high return for it’s rhizomes. On the tour was none other than lawyer Daniel Sheehan, who was meeting David for the first time, thanks to a wonderful connector person, Jahn Ballard, from Sebastopol.
In this show, we open with an update on the latest from Apple Computer (think M4), thanks to our Apple analyst, Taylor Barcroft. From there we delve into a new portable solar generator system by Solex, being installed for Taylor by “Free Energy Bob,” and a report from Gabrielle Cianfrani on “trimtab,” a valuable concept she learned from David Blum (and he from Bucky Fuller). In Future News we look at Scarlett Johansen’s dispute with OpenAI on the use of her voice for their latest AI’s, we demo and create a tune with the AI music generator, Suno, and delve into the realm of agreements with Master Now, visiting from well, the bigger N:OW .. Enjoy!

This show takes the cake when it comes to more unusual content for us. It started with our correspondent Gabrielle Cianfrani asking Meta.ai a ‘simple’ question before bed, “I’ve been thinking lately that we are just pure consciousness experiencing itself, what do you think about that?” And Meta.ai did a decent job in answering, “What a profound and intriguing perspective! The idea that we are pure consciousness experiencing itself is a philosophical and metaphysical concept that has been explored in various spiritual and philosophical traditions. This notion suggests that our essence is not solely bound to our physical bodies or minds, but rather we are an expression of a universal, all-encompassing consciousness.”
Gabrielle naturally, took the AI to task, nudging it to go even deeper, by responding, “I think that any time I am not present, truly present, that I am not pure consciousness experiencing itself. I believe that it is consciousness playing a game, a theater, an act. I think that past and future create suffering because they take us away from The only thing that we really know is real which is this moment right now.” How did Meta respond to that? Tune in! Enjoy..
Gabrielle and the AIs kick around Reality itself.
