This episode dives into a hard, unvarnished conversation about spiritual authenticity, deception, and the traps people fall into when they first break away from organized religion or mainstream narratives. Ryan opens by reflecting on how questioning everything can be liberating but also destabilizing, especially when old belief systems collapse and the alternatives—New Age teachings, "gurus," channelers, star-seed mythologies, and spiritual authority figures—often carry their own hidden agendas. He emphasizes his commitment to staying open, critical, and self-interrogating, even when perspectives clash, and he acknowledges that not every spiritual experience or teacher is fraudulent—there are glimpses of genuine love, beauty, and authenticity worth fighting for.

Laura, founder of Shamanic Self, joins the show to break down her journey out of the New Age movement and explain why she believes much of it is a sophisticated trap. She discusses how people awakening to deeper truths often get funneled directly into another belief system that feeds their ego, siphons their energy, and pushes them toward external entities, "guides," and false cosmologies rather than their own inner knowing. Laura describes the years she spent following prominent New Age figures, the moment her life collapsed under their guidance, and how that crisis ultimately became her exit ramp. She outlines her current approach to intuitive work, one built on inner discernment, rejecting external "guides," and avoiding anything she sees as astral interference or AI-like deception.

The conversation goes deep into metaphysics, soul contracts, resets, the nature of consciousness, why certain public spiritual figures may be controlled opposition, and how to navigate a world distorted by misinformation and hijacked belief systems. Despite clear disagreements, both maintain a grounded respect for one another's perspectives. The episode ends with a shared commitment to seeking truth, staying sovereign, and not surrendering personal power to any system claiming to have all the answers.

Takeaways include"

Many people escaping religion fall directly into another trap—the New Age—because it appears liberating while quietly redirecting power away from the individual.

Authentic spiritual insight requires discipline, inner work, and the ability to distinguish intuition from astral manipulation or external influence.

Not all "gurus," psychics, or channelers are malicious, but many deliver harmful guidance, feed ego, or operate as controlled narratives.

Sovereignty comes from grounding in personal intuition, not outsourcing authority to entities, guides, movements, or ideologies.

Even within a world filled with deception, personal experiences of love, beauty, and genuine connection remain proof that not everything is corrupted—and those glimpses are worth defending.

The Outer Limits of Inner Truth presents an in-depth interview with Dr. Robert Moore and focuses on his book “King, Warrior, Magician, Lover: Rediscovering the Archetypes of the Mature Masculine.” The show features three questioners including previous OLIT Guests Chris Duane & Ryan Brooks. In “King Warrior”, Dr, Moore and his co-author Douglas Gillette explore today’s crisis in masculine identity and describe its two major causes – the disappearance of masculine rites of passage and patriarchy itself. They define the four mature male archetypes – the King (the energy of just and creative ordering), the Warrior (the energy of self-disciplined, aggressive action), the Magician (the energy of initiation and transformation), and the Lover (the energy that connects men to others and the world) – as well as the four immature patterns (Divine Child, Oedipal Child, Precocious Child, and Hero). Moore and Gillette believe the developmental history of every man is, in large part, the story of his failure or success at discovering within himself the archetypes of mature masculinity.

In addition to running the Sons of Liberty Academy, Chris Duane is the owner and publisher of the websites SilverShieldXChange.com and Dont-Tread-On.me, which are both highly recommended portals of information. A bold and incisive voice in a politically correct world, Mr. Duane is a United States Marine and venture capitalist who became a self-made millionaire by the age of 30, when he walked away from his family’s East-Coast car dealership to become a citizen journalist.

Deus ex machina, (Latin: “god from the machine”) a person or thing that appears or is introduced into a situation suddenly and unexpectedly and provides an artificial or contrived solution to an apparently insoluble difficulty.

Can humanity expect Deus ex machina as it rapidly approaches it's darkest hour?

Returning to our show once again is Chris Duane - a finance and investing expert as well as the founder of the Sons of Liberty Academy. Chris offers his perspectives Spiro Skouras' interview with Rosa Koire about Agenda 21, Peter Schiff's vision for America's coming economic collapse, and NDE Survivor Nanci Danison's perspective on humanity's future.

Located on the worldwide web at SonsOfLibertyAcademy.com, the Sons of Liberty Academy is Mr. Duane’s vehicle for building an educational foundation to make effective political change in the world.

He sold his house in 2005, right before the real estate crash, and he began warning people about what was to come in the markets… and we all know about the global economic meltdown that happened soon afterwards. Incredibly, Chris Duane has been able to increase his net worth by an estimated 3,750% since the year 2001 – even while the housing, stock, and job markets were tanking.

In addition to the aforementioned websites, Chris manages an extremely popular YouTube channel, “The Greatest Truth Never Told.” Mr. Duane’s channel has over 33 million views, and it seeks to provide individual solutions to collective problems such as the collapse of the U.S. dollar. Christopher Duane’s YouTube channel is dedicated to the idea that massive change is coming and that if you are aware and prepared for this change, you will be able to create generational wealth.

That means that the purchasing power of our fiat money cannot be guaranteed at any time, according to Chris Duane. As long as your wealth is a digit on a screen, it is literally a liability because, until you transfer it into something real such as silver or gold, it is 100% at risk.

According to Christopher Duane, the purchasing power of our fiat money is always at risk because we live in a system wherein big bankers and governments can print any amount of money at their discretion. To make the situation even worse, the U.S. government is adding $1.3 trillion of new debt, all in just this year alone.

That’s on top of the 21 to 22 trillion dollars of debt that the U.S. already has – and that’s during a relatively calm, functional economy. What happens when another financial crisis comes, similar to what took place in 2008? The next one will be much worse, according to Chris Duane, with the economy crashing even deeper and the government having to deal with all of the debt that has accrued.

The end result, according to Christopher Duane, is that the value of all paper assets will be destroyed. That’s where silver is really going to shine – and if you’re all in cash, what seems like wealth will only end up being a liability.
