Wilhelm Reich

Every time I've talked about the Cloudbuster lately, people have had questions.

Not so much about who Wilhelm Reich was anymore, or even what the Cloudbuster looks like, but about what he actually did with it, how it operated, what did he think he was seeing, and did he ever record failures? And also what happened when he took the entire experiment out of Maine and into one of the driest environments he could find.

That is where I want to go with this episode, because after digging deeper into Reich's records, I realize the Cloudbuster story gets much more interesting once you stop treating it like a strange machine and start looking at it as a long-running series of experiments.

So Reich wasn't simply pointing pipes at the clouds and hoping for rain.

And that's what I feel like I see in my garden.

And Reich had already recorded several operations he believed had worked with this cloudbuster.

So in Maine in 1953, he was asked to intervene during drought conditions, threatening the the blueberry crop near wrangley and according to accounts preserved by the wilhelm reich museum rain followed and the crop was supposedly reportedly saved so his core records also describe an operation near ellsworth where a fog front rolled in from the ocean followed by gentle rain, another experiment intended to keep rain away from a children's parade, and a Boston operation that Reich believed helped break extreme heat when an unexpected storm arrived.

So he even documented repeated attempts at fog lifting, drought breaking, cloud dissipation, and cloud formation.

Well, today we're talking to someone who's done all this and more, and that's Christopher Topher Gardner, host of the BioCharisma podcast on a 10-acre plot in rural Missouri.

He's put into practice much of the wisdom he gained from many of the bright minds we talk about around here, Nikola Tesla, Wilhelm Reich, Victor Schauberger, and many more.

His dedication to healing the intentionally depleted and neglected soil resulted in forming his own supercharged biochar company.

Black Gold Biochar, where he produces 400 tons a month, aligning the modern need for an income with the needs of the earth and those living on it.

So actually doing physical stuff in the physical world that aligns with these principles and the bright minds that we're going to talk about, I just think is amazing.

And the only way that we make inroads against the situation we're in and the I guess I would want to start with some of your inspirations.

You know, we talk about Victor Schauberger, Wilhelm Reich, a lot of these people.

Talk to us about some of the people you put on your short list that have been most inspirational to you, whose work fuels some of the experiments and wide range of things you do on the land.

The cramped quarters made it easier for him to think.

Old Horsemeat called it the Cat Orgone Box after the famed orgone energy accumulators of the late wildcat psychoanalyst Dr. Wilhelm Reich.

If only, Gummidge thought, he could devise some way of objectifying the intimations of beauty that flitted through his darkly clouded mind.

Now, on the evening of the sunny day, when he had backed away from his water bowl, he attacked the problem anew.

Damn, you know, people are supposed to...

What's his name? Is this Reich? No, Wilhelm Reich.

Willem Riker with his organ energy machine and everything, which is supposed to align people as much as machines, so it makes you work better.

Richard? Maybe

Let's talk about that.

Then put your abortion box back on the shelf and then take out your sexual perversion box and talk about Alfred Kinsey and Wilhelm Reich and Shulamith Firestone and Betty Friedan and then put it back and then take off your other, I don't know, your John Money trans box and be like, okay, so the Reimer twins and the bot circumcision and the twins who both killed themselves is the first experiment for trans and then put that back on the shelf and then take out your critical race theory box.

It doesn't work that way.

The revolutionaries walk in lockstep on all of these issues.

And what are the battlefronts culturally and politically that the left is the most obsessed over the ones that make them froth at the mouth? Is it not those four? Is it not sanctity of life? marriage, procreation, and parental rights.

Those are the four main battlefields.

And those were the battlefields that every leftist, including Margaret Sanger, Alfred Kinsey, Wilhelm Reich, Shulamith Firestone, Betty Friedan, Gloria Steinem, go down the list.

aoc and bernie sanders it's always those four that unite them and they'll put aside their other peripheral political disagreements any time for the right to kill babies the right to define marriage as a man and a woman the right to keep children in the homes of their biological married mother and father and the right of the state to not intervene in the in the parental bond with their children anytime those things get get protected they walk in lockstep to attack those.

doing this programme, there is one or two things I'd like to get into today.

We might take a segue later on to talk about the psychoanalyst Wilhelm Reich.

Wilhelm Reich.

We might do.
