In the latest episode of ‘Ghosts and Grit,’ Jack Osbourne is joined by special guest Neil Strauss, renowned American author and investigative journalist. They reminisce about a survivalist course they both took many years ago, sparking a fascinating discussion on Neil's deep fascination with survival preparedness and its relevance in today’s world. Together, they dissect society's reaction to the COVID-19 pandemic and discuss the government's response, shedding light on the underlying dynamics at play. The discussion takes an intriguing turn as Jack and Neil explore the topic of artificial intelligence, delving into the fear surrounding AI and how it stems more from human reactions than the technology itself. Neil shares insights into his books, from "Emergency" to "Truth" and "The Game," and reflects on the controversial response they elicited from the public. The conversation dives fearlessly into the realm of plant medicine, as the duo open up about their personal experiences, psychedelic visions, and the unexpected encounter Neil had with an evil shaman spiraling them into a deeper conversation on their beliefs on death and the afterlife, UFOs, and the concept of staggered disclosure.  You can find Jack at Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jackosbourne/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/ghostsandgrit/ Tik Tok: https://www.tiktok.com/@ghostsandgrit Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/JackOsbourneOfficial Twitter: https://twitter.com/JackOsbourne
