  • Interview with Chuck Bergman 2022!
    Oct 30 2022
    https://chuckbergman.com/ In October 2021, I did an interview with my good friend and world-renowned psychic Chuck Bergman. The reviews are in, and you loved the episode! So I brought Chuck back for another interview about the spirit realm just in time for Halloween 2022. If you missed the last interview, or are not familiar with Chuck, let me introduce him. Chuck was born in Jacksonville Florida and is a third-generation psychic medium, following his mother and grandmother. He realized his gifts at an early age, but kept it under wraps for years. Chuck went on to serve in the United States Navy for 4 years overseas and during the Vietnam War where he was assigned to Special Ops and Radar Operations on aircraft carriers Shangri-La and John F. Kennedy. After the military he served 32 years as a motorcycle officer, patrol officer, computer and media specialist, and accident reconstructionist in Salem, Massachusetts. Since retirement and going public as a psychic medium, the A&E Channel and The Biography Channel have featured Chuck on his own pilot program Psychic Search. Chuck has also been a repeat guest on many live radio shows, including Coast to Coast AM, where Chuck and I met and began our friendship over 10 years ago. In addition to regularly holding sessions and giving readings as a medium, Chuck has helped numerous police departments around the world locate missing persons, solve murder cases, and assist several law enforcement agencies across the country and internationally with on-going investigations. He regularly holds group and private sessions in Middleburg, Florida, and does phone readings with clients worldwide via Skype. Chuck is passionate about educating people on the concept of life continuing after so-called death. He has also completed classes in meditation techniques, psychic mediumship, advanced mediumship, and Reiki. James Van Praagh, the world-renowned psychic medium, teacher, and co-producer of the CBS drama The Ghost Whisperer, highly recommends Chuck for psychic mediumship readings and lists Chuck on his website. Chuck co-authored the book The Everything Guide to Evidence of an Afterlife (published in 2011) and wrote his autobiography Psychic Cop published in 2012. Chuck and I did an episode on this show in October 2021, and talked about various topics such as What is life like for you now being a liaison between us and the spirit world? How did you know you were connecting with spirits and not going crazy? Can you describe what it’s like when you are in the moment connecting with someone on the other side? Why do you think some people can see spirits and others can’t? How do we tell when a spirit is communicating with us? Why do spirits talk in clues or hints and why do they have limited time to talk to us? And more. Without further ado, let’s welcome, Chuck Bergman. Questions for our interview 😊 Tell us about yourself and your background, your time as a cop, and how you transitioned into a psychicWhat are some similarities between being a cop and being a psychic?Would you get premonitions about the event you were going to before you went there? Would the spirit talk to you about their murder before you got to the crime scene?How has your communication with the spirit world improved over the years?A lot of people have had spiritual experiences where they have seen, felt, or heard a loved one who has passed on. How do they know what they went through is real?Does any pain a person went through in physical life automatically disappear when they enter the spirit world? When we say, “may they rest in peace,” or, “they are not suffering anymore,” is there any truth to this?Has a spirit told you a purpose for the pain they went through on Earth? For example, have they said they had cancer because it was a part of their karma?When someone dies, do they know they are dead, or do they need help from other spirits to tell them they have passed on?What are some things we can all do to help us clear out our mental clutter to be able to communicate with our loved ones on the other side?What are some things spirits have told you that they wish they did while they were alive? Did they wish they loved more, spent time with their family more, or gave to others more?If we all go to the afterlife, is there really a reason to fear death?There is a lot going on right now. Do you find that spirits have a message of hope for the world?Why are our loved ones involved with some of our activities and not involved with others?Do you ever talk to someone on the other side and get a bad feeling, like they are a bad spirit?Are ghosts trapped between the physical world and the afterlife or are they in the afterlife and are able to transition to a visual form in the physical world?Why do you think it’s hard for people to believe in ghosts, but it’s easy for them to believe in the afterlife? When does the soul leave the body when dying?How can you tell ...

    Jun 28 2022
    Chicken Mind Nuggets. Hosted by Wifey Chickenmindnuggets.com chickenmindnuggets@gmail.com @mindchicken References for this episode (none, these are my own experiences) Introduction music graciously provided by Music from https://filmmusic.io "Thinking Music" by Kevin MacLeod (https://incompetech.com) License: CC BY (http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/) Show script: (may differ slightly from spoken word) This episode is inspired by Timber Hawkeye’s episode Neurodivergence. Timber explained how his mind works, and how he processes information and relates to the world. As I was listening to it, I realized I never shared my processes with you. I have explained some processes that I work with daily, but never how it all comes together and how I see the world. I would like to explain that to you, and maybe someone out there can relate to one, or more of what I am about to explain. As some of you know, I have narcissistic abuse syndrome. I was gaslighted, and victim-blamed by my parents and grandparents for my entire life. This has led me to doubt and question almost everything because nothing has felt stable. I still have a hard time knowing what is real. When I thought I felt a certain way, I was told that’s not how I feel. This is damaging to a kid growing up, and as an adult, I still question how I feel. I have a hard time knowing how to put my words to my feelings. Am I happy? Am I excited? Am I angry? What are the factors that constructed these feelings, and are they true? The fact that I can’t fully answer these questions has led me to know that I am feeling “happy” or “sad” or “mad” by believing that the majority of that feeling exists within me. Let me explain. If I say I am feeling happy, I may be about 80% sure that I am feeling happy. The 20% is uncertainty, doubt, a healthy caution that events could change at any minute, and a decent amount of skepticism about what happy really means. The same goes for anger, frustration, sadness, grief, or any emotion. When I look back on how I felt about different situations, my flashbacks will give me one feeling, while the analysis of the situation will give me another. I may have a shame wave where a flashback will come into play and the initial shame, guilt, and fear may be met with numbness, curiosity, and exploration. Does that make sense? I extensively process what people say. I fine-tooth comb it to hear if there is a hidden meaning. If a friend tells me about their difficult day at work, I will notice patterns in how they have talked about this before. I might hear that they have a repeated word, phrase, or situation, then analyze all the parts that encompass that. From there, I will put together a picture that my friend hates their job because of their constant discomfort in working with difficult people, or maybe they hate it because the people they work with are never respectful. My mind will go deeper by breaking apart the conversation into money, time, friendships, workload, compensation, etc. Sometimes I feel like I am working their job, and I am trying to separate each piece to make a decision if the job is worth it or not. I do this in almost every situation. Breaking down every element, until I get a reasonable percentage of each factor, then I study, analyze, and provide multiple conclusions on the situation based on my analysis. Here’s how it works. A friend asks, “Would you like to go to the Renaissance Fair?” I do the following. I think about crowds, the crowds then turn into multiple, slow-walking, disrespectful, loud, messy, wrong costume-wearing people. This then breaks down to: how long will I be able to stand walking in a crowded space? Will I run into anyone I know there? If I go to one of the shows, how long before people surround me and I feel trapped? Then we break down crowds into traffic. The traffic going there, walking through the fair, going home, and in the parking lot. There is also the food element. How long will the lines be? Can I be respectful and keep my mouth shut while waiting in line for a bottle of water when the people around me are throwing their trash on the ground? What about the people who get to the counter and don’t know what they want? Now we move on to the day itself. I will have to wake up early, which means rushing, and I am bad at that in the morning. What if I forget to lock a door? If this sounds very Sheldon Cooper-y, I don’t disagree with you. I think you get it. Some of you would call it overanalyzing, overthinking, or being too anal. Remember that I grew up not knowing what reality is, so the only thing predictable was the unpredictable, and how my parents would turn on a dime. Asking questions and getting answers is a form of comfort, of inner control of my world and feelings, and a way for me to know if the situation I am walking into is dangerous or safe. I ...

  • Ep. 41 Boiled Tanked
    May 23 2022
    Chicken Mind Nuggets. Hosted by Wifey Chickenmindnuggets.com chickenmindnuggets@gmail.com @mindchicken References for this episode Introduction music graciously provided by Music from https://filmmusic.io "Thinking Music" by Kevin MacLeod (https://incompetech.com) License: CC BY (http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/) Show script: (may differ slightly from spoken word) It was back in 2008 I had just joined the military and I was clueless about what military life was like. I got on the plane from the Great Lakes recruiting center (lovingly named Great Mistakes) and headed to San Diego for Sonar training. I was slated to be there for about 9 months so I could complete basic A school before I got sent off to a ship. At that point, I have never been to San Diego, and it was one of the reasons I chose orders to be a Sonar Tech. I arrived in San Diego, looking like shit. Let me describe this to you. Before I joined the military, I had a pixie cut. I was a little overweight, and I let myself go a little bit. When I joined the military, my hair was out of regs, so I had to let it grow out into regs. The problem was I couldn’t cut it, because that would be out of regs again, and my command said I could go to captain’s mast. I had to grow out my pixie cut in all the awkward stages of its horrible glory without any maintenance, which left me with a rat’s tail and awkward growth all over my head. On top of that, the Navy had the utilities, which consisted of a baggy blue shirt and high-waisted dark blue pants which gave everyone a fupa. It was not my best look. I started smoking again because everyone did and it was a way to escape the long hours of sonar training while getting to know people. When I was in the Navy, you didn’t get a break unless you smoked, which is what I learned early on in A school before even heading to a ship. You also got to meet new people because they would come by and hang out at the smoke deck to catch the roach coach or sit at the picnic-style tables that were nearby. There weren’t many women in A school, and I didn’t care for many of them because I got along better with men. I tried to be friends with some of the women, but I never felt 100% comfortable. Luckily, that was about to change. In comes Boiled. OK, her name isn’t really Boiled, but I’ll get to that in a minute. We hit it off instantly. If you were to meet us at face value, you wouldn’t think that we would belong together. I smoked, drank heavily, hung around with fun, but awful people, and was making some pretty bad decisions. Boiled was (and is) beautiful, didn’t smoke, didn’t drink much, and is a preacher’s daughter. Lifestyle-wise, we were the opposite, but we became friends with a bond that didn’t break even after a 12-year separation. Remember I said her name wasn’t Boiled? It’s not, it’s Boyle. In the military we go by our last names. She started hanging out with me, and that meant going to the bar. A lot. And going to Ocean Beach. And sometimes the two were combined and sometimes we tried to get to Ocean Beach from the bar at Point Loma, but we were too drunk so we offered strangers $5.00 to let us ride in the boat they were towing so we could get to Ocean Beach. Sometimes we stayed at the bar, because it was male stripper night, and when it is male stripper night, you don’t party lightly. Boiled had never experienced male strippers before, but it was not my first rodeo. I put $100.00 on top of the bar and told the bar tender, whatever she wants, she gets. We put dollars in strippers’ underwear, and the look on her face as crotch was dancing from the left side to the right side of her head, was epic. To say it was a bonding moment, would be an understatement. She asked me what an orgasm felt like, and I don’t remember this, but she told me I described it to her. We did a lot of late night, hard partying, drunken sailor shenanigans for months. We even went to Ocean Beach and got tattoo’s. Boiled got one, then another, then another. I got my chest tattooed, and Boiled got another. Boiled even got a boyfriend! We suffered through PT together after being freshly tatted, we suffered through mandatory study hall time because the class wasn’t getting good grades, we suffered through weekly Friday night lectures about not going to Tijuana, we suffered through command uniform inspections and impossible shoe shines unless you had Vaseline, we suffered through the unspeakable drama of a building filled with women sharing rooms and bathrooms with showers that had no barriers. But we also suffered through beautiful west coast sunsets, amazing food, lots of laughter, first time experiences, hanging out at lib hall, and becoming amazing friends. So after being indoctrinated into the world of drunken sailor shenanigans in San Diego for over 8 months, Boyle, became Boiled. And I became Tanked. ...
