Highlights The Malliard Report

 Gregory Shushan is the guest on the Malliard Report. He is the leading authority on near death experiences and afterlife across cultures and is the author of numerous books, including the most recent one, The Next World of Extraordinary Experiences of the Afterlife.  Gregory and Jim are discussing Gregory's new book, The Next World: Extraordinary Experiences of the Afterlife. Gregory explains that his previous two books are published by Bloomsbury and Oxford University Press and are intended for an academic audience, which is why they come with a hefty $110 price tag. He wanted to write something more accessible and affordable for people interested in near-death experiences. His new book looks at the idea of the afterlife from different cultural and religious perspectives. It is both accessible in terms of academic language and affordable for readers. The narrator has always been interested in unusual phenomena and began exploring after reading a book called Phenomenon. During his first degree in Egyptian

Jim Malliard welcomes Tanner Campbell to the show. Tanner is a philosophy writer and podcaster who focuses on bringing the philosophy of stoicism out of the pages of history and modernizing it to a more practical and useful way of individuals living today. During the interview, Tanner discusses his new book, Living Well: Stoic Ideas for a Better Life, and how stoicism can be applied to modern day situations. He shares some tips on how to live a more stoic life, including the importance of self-awareness, focus, and detachment. Zeno of Citium was a Greek philosopher who founded the Stoic school of thought in 300 BCE. He got the idea for Stoicism after he was shipwrecked and lost everything he owned. He went to the Oracle of Delphi for guidance and she told him to take on the power of the dead. Zeno interpreted this to mean that he should study the great thinkers of the past and learn from their wisdom. Stoicism is a philosophy that emphasizes self-control, rationality, and stoic acceptance of the things we can

The Malliard Report is a virtual live show that airs on Tuesday nights at 9:00 pm Eastern. The show is hosted by Jim Malliard, with his son and daughter as regular guests. This week, the focus is on bringing the family together for 2022 and giving them a break for the rest of December. They talk about the cold weather coming across the country and how to stay warm during it. The speaker and his wife discuss his son's experiences with the paranormal and his daughter's love for animals. The speaker explains that he wanted to share these experiences with the listeners to add value and provide context for why things are the way they are around their home. The speaker and his wife then discuss the importance of responsibility and how it teaches their children. The speaker and Skyler discuss the responsibility of taking care of animals, the emotional support that animals provide, and how the cycle of life is represented in taking care of them. The interviewees discuss the importance of Skyler's radio show in ter

The conversation is about the difficulties the speaker is having with technology. They are trying to get a video up for their daughter to show off her pets, but the program keeps crashing. They express their wish that the program would just crash so they could restart it. Two people are talking about a pet rat. The rat is mostly white with some tan markings on its back. It is two years old. The person recording the conversation notes that the video program is having difficulties, but decides to continue recording and post the video anyways. The conversation then turns to discussing the details of the rat. The speaker has six pet rats, three of which are female. The oldest rat is female and likes whipped cream and scrambled eggs. The second oldest rat is Celeste, who is black and white. She is one year old in human years, and will turn two on the 21st. She likes to run on her wheel and eat anything. The third rat is white with red eyes, and likes to eat whipped cream and strawberries. The fourth rat is male

This week is quite a unique and special episode for The Malliard Report. While the show has seen countless incredible guests, amazing fill in hosts, and fantastic fan call-ins, this week is a first. On this episode Jim shares hosting duties with his very own son Skyler Malliard. Skyler, fascinated with the paranormal and mediumship (and honing his own abilities) welcomes Kim Rackley to the show to discuss her incredible abilities and background, and how Skyler can begin growing his own spiritual talents.

Do you want to make a positive change in your life, work, or business? Do you want to improve your marriage, be a better parent, or drive more revenue to your business? Then you’ve found the right episode of The Malliard Report. This week on the show, Jim welcomes Christine Miles to the show. Christine is an author and speaker that focuses on listening. Huh? (Sorry, too easy) It is one thing to hear, but are you really listening to those around you? Christine will dive into this and much more.

Almost 40 years ago, one of the fastest growing religions in Japan was officially established. Happy Science as it is known is rooted in the principle of doing good within the world. Happy Science Members focus on attaining enlightenment through activities such as daily self-reflections, giving love, and helping create a modern utopia. This week on The Malliard Report, Jim welcomes one of the key speakers of the movement Yoichi Utebi to the show to discuss the faith, his career as a producer, and much more. “Yoichi Utebi is a producer and world lecturer for Happy Science. Born in Japan in 1968, Utebi grew up in Beirut, Lebanon, and New York City. Raised in a rare Japanese Christian family, he was deeply touched by Muslim culture and the beauty of Lebanon during his formative years in Beirut. However, the Middle East also exposed Utebi to the horrors of war, as he and his family dodged bullets and bombings before fleeing to London and back to Japan, leaving everything behind in a sudden evacuation. In the 7th

The safety and security industry has got to be one of the most rapidly evolving and wildly varying industries around. Safety and security can be an incredibly broad term that covers everything from personal identity information to protecting information and data that is critical to national defense. From security cameras to data breaches, and everything in between, this week’s guest on the Malliard Report is on the front lines of defense. This week Jim welcomes Steve Surfaro to the show to discuss the current state of security in the public sector, how the consumer sector is out pacing the commercial sector, and even how the paranormal field is driving advances in security. (It’s the Malliard Report, of course there must be something paranormal worked in!) “With thirty years of security industry experience, Steve Surfaro is Axis Communications Industry Liaison and Chairman of the Security Industry Association’s Public Safety Working Group. He is also Chairman of the ASIS Security Applied Sciences Council. A s

Ancient Egypt. A time and place that evokes imagery and mystery unlike any other. Everything from ornate, colossal statues, tales of cursed tombs, golden adornments, god-like rulers, and alleged advanced ancient technologies are sprinkled throughout the stories weaved into the history of Egypt. A kingdom that existed from approximately 3100 B.C. to about 30 A.D. still seems to live on today. Igniting the imaginations of Hollywood, scientist, children, mystics, and countless others. From Aliester Crowley to Giorgio Tsoukalos, to even today’s guest on The Malliard Report. This week Jim welcomes a longtime friend and returning guest to the show Mark Anthony to discuss King Tutankhamun, ancient Egyptian architecture, and much more. “Mark Anthony the “Psychic Lawyer and Psychic Explorer (aka Psychic Attorney and Psychic Adventurer),” is a world-renowned fourth generation science based evidential psychic medium who communicates with spirits. He is the author of the critically acclaimed Amazon and spiritual bestsell

“Everything I know about love is taught by the people who really never loved me. We strive to be loved… we do… and we hope to be loved back but sometimes what we give is not returned in the same authentic way… so let’s don’t allow this to change our heart. Let’s learn from it. Keep on spreading love around as love is really all we need.” The phrase “you get what you give” certainly comes to mind with this week’s guest on The Malliard Report. This week Jim welcomes Claudia Noriega Bernstein to the show. Claudia is an artist, writer, philanthropist, life coach, mentor, mother, and wife. During her career as a journalist, she has worked for magazines and television in South America and the US, touching subjects from parenting, forgiveness, and growth to political issues. Claudia has placed an emphasis on her role as a life coach because she believes everyone deserves a helping hand, a shoulder to lean on, or someone to help shine light on a dark path ahead. She wants to see people improve, achieve their goals, a

"Woo Woo For Your Boo Hoo.” Psychic abilities have been long researched, tried, debated, and utilized for centuries. While many “academics” may be quick to write it off, the fact is that there is something to it. Why else would the CIA put so much time and money into conducting tests like remote viewing and OBE research? This week on The Malliard Report, Jim welcomes a guest that has jumped far into the deep end when it comes to this kind of stuff. This week Jim welcomes Julie Guthrie Smulson who happens to be a remote viewer, medium, channeler, healer, wearer of many other hats, and is here to discuss her incredibly busy life doing such. “Julie is an Author, Spiritual Healer & Podcaster. As an author Julie is passionate about sharing her lifetime and lifetimes of experiences with the world. Julie’s intention in all that she does is to help others overcome their personal traumas and challenges so they can become happy and thriving individuals. Through Julie’s own personal traumas and challenges she has been e

What seems to be a near monthly occurrence, the morning news highlights the latest in the billionaire’s pissing contest, and we get to watch another rocket hurdle through the atmosphere. While the achievements are absolutely remarkable, and the fact that space travel has now become a “civilian’s” game, it still sits in the “unobtainable” category for the average person. You, me, or any other Joe Schmoe can’t really hedge any bets that we will be bolting ourselves into a seat, strapped to literal millions of pounds of thrust any time soon. Let alone be able to afford to do so. (Maybe you can, and I apologize for assuming otherwise) But what if there was an easier way? Something that could be done at the touch of a button, like…and elevator. Yes, and elevator to space. This week on The Malliard Report, Jim welcomes Neal Lachman. Neal is a disruptor in the space travel game, and he is here tonight to share those ideas. Neal has more than 32 years of business experience, including 26 years in finance and technolo

Our journey through life is difficult. There is no other way around it. We face challenges everyday from outside sources on a near constant basis; things we can control, things we can’t, people that seem to have the soul purpose to just make our lives hell. Then there is our biggest critic that we stare down, wrestle with, and feel like we lose to constantly. Ourselves. Navigating our own hang-ups, spiritual challenges, and never ending critiques, we truly our own worst enemy. This week on The Malliard Report, Jim welcomes a guest who has a purpose to help those that may be lost on their journey, in addition to being a prolific medium, and a background dancer in a 70s musical that we love. This week Jim Welcomes Vincent Genna to the show. Acclaimed as the “truly authentic” gifted healer, Vincent is known for using his extraordinary gifts, academic credentials, and all-loving approach to embolden others to dive deep within to release their blocks and resistances and feel inspired and empowered! For almost four

What are the two things that we are told to never discuss at the dinner table? Especially with in-laws. Religion and Politics. With technology and the age of information that we live in, you would think that discussing ideas of those two categories would be lively, engaging, civilized. But we could not be any further from such a position. We fight and bicker over the most non-sensical, out of context bits, and try to claim the higher ground. This week on The Malliard Report, Jim welcomes a guest that dives headfirst into both topics regularly with his own Podcast “Talkin’ Politics and Religion Without Killin’ Each Other.” This week we sit down with Corey Nathan and discuss just that…religion and politics. Corey was raised in an observant Jewish household attending an Orthodox synagogue. His family is mostly from Brooklyn, New York, but Corey grew up in Jersey. In his late 20s, much to the family's chagrin, Corey became a born-again Christian. Not long after this epiphany, he began to find many of the default

We get a dopamine rush when we see the social media notification that someone liked our content. We strain ourselves to our very max at our job to chase up proverbial ladders. We destroy small businesses because we want our product within 2 days or less. We throw fits because a coffee shop doesn’t have our favorite flavor syrup. It is without question that we live in a “me centered” culture. What happens though when we take ourselves out of the equation and put the focus on others. We go that extra mile for someone. Well, this week on The Malliard Report, Jim welcomes Rabbi Manis Friedman to the show to discuss just such things. Rabbi Manis Friedman is a Hassid rabbi, author, social philosopher, and public speaker. He is also the dean of the Bais Chana Institute of Jewish Studies. Friedman authored Doesn't Anyone Blush Anymore?, which was published in 1990 and is currently in its fourth printing. In 1971, inspired by the teachings of the Lubavitcher Rebbe, Friedman as a shaliach ("emissary") cofounded the Bai

In 1987 Michel Desmarquet stated that he was abducted by very kind and attractive, 8-foot tall, hermaphroditic, humanoid aliens and taken to their advanced planet. He was shown the function of the universe through a metaphysical form, in addition to how to correct our planets future path, and potential warnings if we do not. Quite a story to say the least, but the real question is how does this story, and a Chinese Court Interpreter have a common thread? Well this week’s guest on The Malliard Report, was so moved by the Thiaoouba Prophecy, he set out on his own journey to follow in the path of Michel. This week Jim welcomes Samuel Chong. Samuel comes from Beijing, China. With a bachelor's degree in Economics from University of California, Berkeley, he also studied Economic History at London School of Economics and Political Science and Financial Analysis at Universidad Carlos III de Madrid. A former instructor for the Court Interpreters Program at University of California, Los Angeles Extension Program, he sp

At this point it is no surprise that the last two and half years has driven change and created new platforms in which people live and work. The work environment looks nothing like what it did just three years ago. To accept such a drastic change is challenging enough, but to become the norm is an entirely different ball of wax. But that is where we are now. Companies can exist with employees working out of their offices and bedrooms. Along with that, the educational systems have had to overcome the exact same trials and obstacles the work forces encountered. For years, colleges have allowed people to earn degrees without even setting foot upon a campus. So why has it taken this long (and an event of this caliber) to make that shift into primary education? This week on The Malliard Report, Jim features a guest that has taken on this challenge head on, but from a totally different viewpoint. It is one thing for schools to put into place the infrastructure to accommodate virtual learning, but what about the pare

At this point, does this week’s guest really need an introduction? If you have listened to The Malliard Report for any length of time you will certainly recognize this voice almost instantly. Always on the go with some new project, and always a fan favorite and show friend, this week Jim welcomes Mark Anthony. So without any further ado, let’s just jump into this thing. “Mark Anthony the “Psychic Lawyer and Psychic Explorer (aka Psychic Attorney and Psychic Adventurer),” is a world-renowned fourth generation science based evidential psychic medium who communicates with spirits. He is the author of the critically acclaimed Amazon and spiritual bestsellers Never Letting Go and Evidence of Eternity. Mark’s credentials and experience are unparalleled in the paranormal world. He is an Oxford educated trial attorney licensed to practice before the United States Supreme Court. In England he studied Mediumship at the prestigious Arthur Findlay College for the Advancement of Psychic Science.” Make sure to head over

Everybody has a genesis in their passion journey. For some, it is seeing a musician play an instrument or piece that absolutely captivates them. Others may be enthralled by the grace and moves of a dancer or inspired by an athlete that causes themselves to push their very own limits. Sometimes inspiration comes from the most unusual sources. One could say this week’s guest was inspired by a single piece sheet metal, and that piece of sheet metal has turned into a successful sports marketing team. This week Jim welcomes Tim Leonard to the show. Tim Leonard is the head of Leonard Motorsports Marketing. Sports marketing is something of an unusual genre of business. Most sports marketing is usually done by mega companies attaching themselves to team/sports uniforms or having an elite player wear a particular item while on the court or pitch. This most often involves absurdly large amounts of money that most of us simple folk would not even begin to fathom. However, motorsports seem to be the one outlet that a “re

Podcasts are everywhere. They are part of our daily lives. While we are at the gym, on our way to work, chores around the house, or sometimes just comforting background noise, we always have our favorite content ready to go; True crime, DIY, self-help, spooky stories, and conspiracies all neatly packaged in easy to search UI on our favorite platforms. But, not that long ago in the grand scheme of things, this burgeoning new wave of content was difficult to access. Resources and topics were few and far between and figuring out how to get your creation out there and discovered were new and uncharted territories. This week’s guest on The Malliard Report was on the forefront of that expedition. Today, Jim welcomes the Godfather of podcasting, Jeff Townsend. “Jeff has been creating content for over 15 years, with over 1.5 million views/listens/downloads across various platforms. After taking a break for several years to focus on his career in Marketing, he is now back in the mix of things with this new passion pro
