The Quadrant Model Podcast: Recent Episodes
Merk Diezle
I have had three Michael's on the podcasts so far. In this podcast I talk with my best friend from college Michael Mossad. We were suite mates my Freshman year of college. Michael was the main character in my book Based on a True Story. He was the first person who I showed the quadrant model to the beginning of my Sophomore year of college around 2009 and throughout college I had many conversations with him about it.
Michael and I are thinking of moving in together and this Summer we are planning to drive across America, starting with visiting our friend in Texas. Hopefully on that trip I can meet people to help promote the quadrant model. But Michael is in medical school right now so he is busy
I converse with Keshavananda about Krishna consciousness and philosophical topics. He is an esteemed guru in the Caitanya Saraswat movement
My friend Nrsinga and I talk about a lot of philosophical topics. Nrsinga is a huge rap connoisseur like myself so we begin talking about rap music. Then we get into topics like consciousness and solipsism and cosmology and unity in the homogeneity through the quadrant model
My friend Nrsinga and I get into some deep philosophical territory. We start off talking about rap music, Nrsinga makes beats. Then we discuss consciousness, reincarnation, solipsism, oneness in variety, and other topics
I talk with Avi Nimmer about his wisdom and experience life coaching. I met Avi at a Yoga event
I teach Frank, who identifies as Hare Krishna, some of the metaphorical and astrological meanings behind the Mahabharata. After years of studying Hindu mythology and transpersonal psychology I have discovered what I think are deeper meanings behind the Hindu scripture and other scriptures
I talk with David Lane, the owner of Omni Coaching Academy, and psychotherapist, about the quadrant model and how it relates to psychology and other topics
I'm not pulling your leg when I say that I had the honor and the privilege to speak with Nick Westfall this morning. I met Nick a few years ago at a film makers meetup place where I was asking people to help promote the quadrant model. Nick is really the only guy there who has offered any assistance. He got me in touch with his friend who gave me good advice with the quadrant model. Recently after I unhid my YouTube lectures from 2013 in 2020, his friend told me to make transcripts of my YouTube videos, and that's what I did and I made those into books. You can check those books out at quadrantmodelofreality.tumblr.com. Nick and I both have a lot in common. We both played college basketball. He played college basketball in North Carolina. We both Coached high school level basketball. In 2013 I coached a JV basketball team while I lived in Kauai. Nick currently Coaches volleyball teams, and Nick is also a fervent volleyball player. Also we both have been learning passionately. Nick currently is on a curriculum where he reads or listens to a book or audiobook a day I believe, as Tai Lopez recommended to do. In this talk Nick and I discuss Carol Dweck's book Growth Mindset, Malcolm Gladwell's Outliers, Angela Duckworth's Grit and other topics. I look forward to talking with Nick again. We were short on time because Nick is also a teacher and he needs to be at his school to teach at nine oclock, I think, and I held him up a little bit because we ran a little overtime during this interview. Next time we speak I want to ask him more about the movies he is making. Nick also is passionate about philosophy so I want to learn more about what he is learning in philosophy. Talking with this guy is truly inspirational and I want to learn more about his life and what he is doing, hopefully in our next conversation
O'layimika got me in contact with the founder of Supra Librix Dr. Dan. In the podcast today we talked a little bit about what he is working on with Supra Librix. My Mom told me she was going to have a carpet cleaner come to my house at 8 oclock this morning, but they did not come at 8 o'clock and instead came at 1:00 around the time we had this interview so sadly there was some noise in the background at times. But regardless we delved into interesting topics and I plan to have another interview with him in the future where we can focus more on what he is working on with Supra Librix.
I only slept one hour last night or less because I went to a birthday party. So I was not very alert during this interview and definitely received a barrage of criticisms of the quadrant model. Thomas Druschke runs the podcast Atheist Reformation and he claims to be skeptical of the quadrant model. I don't think his critiques discounted the quadrant model at all. Even though Thomas expressed his opinion that he does not like the quadrant model, I retained composure and recommended he read these books and listen to these lectures that I made in 2013 on quadrantmodelofreality.tumblr.com the books are a transcript of the lectures. The lectures are pasted throughout the book. I plan to make further books on the other lectures I made in 2013. I recently unhid these lectures in 2020
My Grandpa and I talk about synchronicities that I experienced and talk about Ernest Holmes
I talk with Matt Blake about the quadrant model. Matt Blake first contacted me after hearing me speak on the Grimerica podcast about the quadrant model. The quadrant model really resonated with him because he saw how it related to the mathematics that he is currently working on. Well that makes sense, the quadrant model is the theory of everything, look everywhere and you find the quadrant pattern.
It was a pleasure to talk with Rob Resnick tonight and interview him about Naam Yoga and its teachings. We also discuss the quadrant model
I met Alex James at a couple years ago at a Church. He posts very funny content on FaceBook. I find his posts and material intriguing and humorous. Definitely entertaining. We go on a wild ride with Alex in this episode but, even though we seemed to get into some bizarre topics I think there was learning involved.
