Skip Atwater, welcome to the show. Thank you very much. I have heard a lot about you from several of the previous guests. I've read about you. I've seen documentaries about you. You're a hard man to reach. Been trying to make contact for quite a while, and Joe and Scooter finally... They were the ones that made the connection. So I just want to say thank you to Joe and Scooter. I'm glad to be here. It's an honor to have you here. But everybody gets an introduction here, so we'll knock that out first. Frederick Holmes, Skip Atwater. You were a counter-spy during the Cold War era where you used your natural psychic aptitude as a U.S. Army counterintelligence special agent. You played a key role in the remote viewing intelligence program now known to the world by the code name Stargate. For 10 years, you were the operations and training officer of this secret remote viewing program.

You recruited and trained an elite cadre of professional intelligence officers to do remote viewing for the Department of Defense and various members of the national intelligence community. After retiring from the Army, you became president of the Monroe Institute in Virginia. In your book, Project 8200, UFO UAP Bases and Activities, the original remote viewing transcripts, you show us the results of Pat Price's famous exploration of four mountains around the world where Price believed UFO bases were located. You're the author of Captain of My Ship, Master of My Soul, Living with Guidance. You have been featured in several film documentaries, including Ghosts in the Afterlife, A Scientific Investigation, and Third Eye Spies. I'm sure I'm missing quite a bit there, but that's quite deep.

That's a big pile, is what you're going to say.
Shawn Ryan 3:09
That is, that is, that is. But, you know, I'm just... I have been... fascinated with this subject for many years now. And with every person that I interview, I just get more intrigued. And you have been involved in this almost since the very beginning, from what I understand. And so some of the things that I would just, I would like, two main things I would like to do in this interview is one, to cover your life story and how you kind of got involved in this. And I would also like to go over, you know, the history of the Stargate program and kind of how it came on the map for United States intelligence. Yes. Perfect. I can talk about all that. Perfect. But before we get too in the weeds, I have a Patreon account. Patreon, it's a subscription account. They're our top supporters. A lot of these folks have been with us since the very beginning, and they're the reason I get to sit here and you're here as well. And so one of the things I do is I offer them the opportunity to ask every guest a question. And so this question is from Jay.

What neurological structures in the brain are responsible for these altered states of consciousness? Is it simply dreaming?
Skip Atwater 4:49
That is an interesting question because we've been thinking about the brain for a long time and the brain is this and the brain is that and It used to be thought of hundreds of years ago of that's just to keep your head warm. They don't know what the brain is and what's going on up there. But it's something that, you know, over the past 50, 100 years has become the answer to everything.
