WOW - what a lovely posting thankyou! My head just got so big I couldn't get out of the studio lol!

Thanks

Ross

Ross,

Thank you very much for posting the interview with David Icke in the Podcasts forum. I was unable to listen to this interview and was delighted to get a chance to listen to it. It was an excellent interview and I hope to hear more of your interviews on the future and I fully intend to contribute a few podcasts for your show.

Thanks again!

Ross:

That was simply fantastic work. David Icke has always been a loon in my book. After listening to him on your program I've actually softened that rather ignorant (on MY part) stance on Mr. Icke.

While his "Reptilian" business still makes blanch when I hear it his actual talks about it are much less sensational than what I've read about them.

As I was listening to him it occurred to me that I have never sat through a complete talk of his on the Reptilian issue. Here I am, one the "Deny Ignorance Three Amigos" and I had formed an opinion withOUT hearing the man first hand. I am an idiot some of the time and freely admit it.

Thanks for letting him speak his peace etc... Does this mean I agree with him? Hell no. But I certainly think he's not NEARLY as loony as many would have us believe and therefor worth listening to at the least.

Springer...

Glad you enjoyed the interview and yes I have to say David had the same effect on me, and it is shame he has been judged so quickly by so mnay, because SOME of what he talks about does make a lot of sense.

Ross

Ross,
thanks so much for a great interview, AND for asking a question on my behalf (though I'm sure it would have sounded better if it came from my real name rather than my screen nom-de-plume) - I was satisfied with David's answer. It's true, you're NEVER going to convince anybody of these things, they will eventually come to their own conclusions. We are so locked into our 5 senses that it is up to that individual themself to open themselves up to such possibilities. I know a friend who was like this- a typical left-brain thinker - a regular Joe Blow, but after showing him a few David Icke videos, even he is open to the idea that the Reptilian thing is totally possible. Nothing surprises him in this world now.

Think about it. Look at this forum. EVERYONE here demands proof. "Where's your proof?" "I want to see cold hard evidence". "I want to see little green men landing on the White House lawn". "You're full of fairy tales". Most of the people on this forum - dare I say, even the Amigos, are conditioned into this programmed mode of thinking. They are likely not aware of it, in denial of it, but it's exactly how David Icke explains it in your interview. Perfect examples of hardwired left brain thinkers gunning for conclusions consistent with their 5-senses view of the world.

I am however, surprised, Ross that you only say that only SOME of what Mr Icke said made sense. It sounded as if you were in full support of him, agreeing with basically everything. If you thought he was talking hogwash, then why didn't you stop him and challenge him? (not that it would bother him anyway, as it doesn't matter if you believe it or not) As an interviewer with integrity, you should take the reins and question him if he's saying something that is incongruent with your own worldview. But on the plus side, you allowed Mr Icke to air his thoughts freely and the interview itself was entertaining and enlightening. However it seems a bit strange to listen to an interview where you seem positively agreeing with everything, then come away from it only perhaps agreeing with only a portion of it. I heard nothing negative said from your quarters - usually an interviewer will jump in and debate an issue.

Then again, like Mr Icke says, perhaps these things are beyond debate, you're either going to accept these things or not.

Thanks for the posting, glad you enjoyed the interview.

To answer your question, the reason that Now THAT'S Weird is different from other radio shows, is that it allows people to take to the air and have their say WITHOUT CHALLENGE or ridicule from the presenter, and that is the style of the show. It doesn't mean I agree with everything they say, but I let my liusteners decide, and any awkward questions that may come in come in e-mail from them rather than from me!

I think David Icke made a lot of sense on many issues, and has been misquoted on many occasions, but I still have a basic problem with former prime ministers and royalty turning into shape-shifting reptiles i'm afraid! That said - I know from my own experiences, that we should never discount ANYTHING until we have solid evidence as there are some very strange things going on around us!!!

Ross

Thanks for the explanation. It did benefit the flow of the interview having no challenges or arguments mounted, it was just something I thought I'd ask. Cheers

Hurrah and Hussar Ross.
Too many interviewers think the confrontational "put you down" kind of interview is where its at.

Yep sometimes it can yield results with professional interviewees like our "elected leaders" who are groomed for it anyway.
Listen to John Humfreys verberally beat them into submission on Radio 4.
I think this non challenging approach would be a refreshing change. Politicians know for example that at interview that there is a limited time and a badgering interviewer gives them the chance to start their response afresh and use up that window. Just imagine the puzzlement as when asked a question they are allowed to respond with no interuptions or ridicule. The delicious thought of them squirming as they realise there is still four minutes to go. Problem is the awkward silence is probably saying as much as the statement anyway.

Keep it up. Your approach is why you get the guests you do and no doubt this will attract others, who may shy from confrontational interviews.
Doubtless there are those out there not media savy, not groomed for interview, that does not mean that what they say is not valid or worthy of debate.
Just let 'em talk. With the exception of myself your audience seem to be inteligent and well capable of making up their mind or researching further.
We dont need another interviewer forcing their viewpoint down our throat.

As I understand it, this whole "Now Thats Weird" thing needs an open mind. I feel to rule something totally out because you dont believe it or because there is no physical evidence is taking us down the path of those narrow minded sceptics / cynics. Lets face it what is evidence anyway? We live in an age where the camera does lie and clever people can manipulate evidence / experiments / data to say black is white. All we got is our noggin really and that is a product of environment and prejudice.
Just keep the info coming we can make our own decision.

Yes, on reflection, the confrontational style perhaps doesn't always yield the right results for the betterment of understanding. Look at Terry Wogan's 2006 interview with David Icke - he tried to take that ridiculing / skeptical stance and he actually came off second best - he actually got served. David was all over him by the conclusion of that interview. I think Wogan expected an easy ride, to casually make fun of him given the track record of their past, but in the end David stomped all over him.

One thing he was wise enough to do was not specifically bring Reptilians into the equation, he spoke of the bloodlines but nothing too shocking. Enough information to get the viewers intrigued enough to get them onside. Intentional or not, it was a winning formula.

Yes, and we certainly have had guests talking far more openly on the show because of this softly softly approach. When a guest feels comfortable that they are not being ridiculed they are far more likely to open up to the presenter.

I also discuss my own research and encounters with them to show them that I do have an understanding of the subject and find this also helps a lot too.

This week we have Andy Johnson and Brian Coleman talking about the DISCLOSURE PROJECT - I think this will also be a very interesting interview.

I will be trying to edit down the ads and music of a few past interviews this week so they can be added to ATS as podcasts, as there are some that are intriguing, including two with NICK POPE the former UK government "X Files" officer.

Ross

Hi there Ross.

i have just listened to your pod cast interview with david icke, and i thought it was a spendid interview indeed!

I have heard Icke speak so many times before, but it is always a pleasure to hear him again. He is a great subject to have on radio, because you just wind him up and off he goes

He gets alot of bad press, and some of it comes from within the community because they think that he gives us a bad name, but I do not believe that he is given the respect he deserves. And this interview will open some people's hearts and minds to him. Well done!

I must admit that this forum has totally past my by. I normally hang out in the Aliens forum to be honest, but I will look out for threads in this forum now! I looked at your website and saw that you will be interviewing some guys from the disclosure project on friday. I will definately be listening to that!

Great job, and it's a pleasure to have you on ATS.

Thanks - glad you enjoyed it

Ross

Likewise... further, to a large degree my feeling has come full circle on Icke... inclusive of the reptilian issue.



Via Limewire or other P2P download these:

Secrets of the Matrix 2of3 David Icke illuminati freemason conspiracy (alex jones michael moore mind control satanism).avi
Secrets of the Matrix 3of3 David Icke illuminati freemason conspiracy (alex jones michael moore mind control satanism).avi

It is a 6 hour lecture given by Icke at the brixton academy... 1 and 2 are excellent illuminati discussion. In part three he begins discussing reptilians around minute 13. The uncorrupted files should be 428905 391098 and 450523 KB respectively.



The only thing loony about Icke, may just be how much deeper he has crawled into the proverbial rabbit hole, than you or I. I have studied enough scripture to recognize "prophet-like" maven qualities in Icke. His discussion of the reptilians coincides quite well with tales of satan taking physical form. His speech is quite channeled. In a metaphysical sense, the spirit of what Icke has to say, when taken in context of the modern predicament and multiplied by the energy he has put into spreading this message... is a weighty warning and wake-up call to mankind.

Deny Ignorance they say,

ps... could someone post a link here for the interview? I was out of town.

Got it...
