The Paranormal Project Radio show Dry your hosts, Scott Allen and Christina Bowen.
Hello, my friends, and welcome to the very first show of twenty twenty
four. We're so glad to have you all here with us. Hi Christina.
Happy New Year to you, my dear friend, Happy New Year.
It's so good to see you. And I could see you in person in
a few weeks, which is even more exciting. It's going to be fun.
Yeah, this is gonna be a lot of fun hanging out in Texas
together. And we have our first show of the year. We have Greg
gree Nicholas Medium Greg Nicholas. Now do you know Gregory because he was at
I met him at the paras Icon. I think we may have passed each
other, but as you know, I was vending and barely got away from
the table and he and I, you know, I remember, I just
well, I wasn't vending, so I was able to walk around and see
things, and I went up to the whatever it is about the guardroom,
and he was up there and we sat and we ended up having a nice
chat. So I said to him a while back, I'd love to have
you on the show so that we could talk about all that you do,
because you know, you know, I always say this all the time.
Just because we're mediums doesn't mean we all do things the same way. And
the information we get is different, and how we get the information is different.
And sometimes some mediums use things like he uses dominoes, like I don't
even know. I don't even know how to play dominoes, never mind us
dominance for anything else. So it's kind of cool, and I'm anxious to
talk with him about some of this stuff. And if you hear it's a
little bit like talking to you know, it's like you're listening to snow white
because you can hear the birds chirping in the background when you talk to him.
If I don't know if they're doing his laundry or or anything but cleaning
itself or whatever they're doing, but you got a little bird in the backgrounds
If you hear the bird, that's his twenty five year old parrot who drinks.
So who drinks. I'm going to bring him out because I really want
to shout with him. I could see him back there. Hi, Greg,
how are you so good to see you? Good evening? How is
everyone good to see you? Scott thanks for having me. Oh my god,
it's a pleasure. I'm so glad to have you on the show.
Finally we were going to do this in the fall, and then something happened.
There was a scheduling conflict or something. But here you are, and
I'm so glad to have you here with us. You were what like third
generation, fourth generation? I'm fourth generation, both psychic medium as we know,
a very big difference. We trace it to my great grandmother. She
came over from Italy, specifically the Naples area nineteen nineteen, settled in western
Pennsylvania, where I'm originally from. And the gift or ability, what have
you. It went from her to my grandmother to my mother to me ends
with me. We do not have children, and everybody's dead. I buried
thirty four. They're all gone. Wow. Yeah. But the psychic side
is the use of the way I describe it, Guys used to the tools
I use playing cards, I use oracle cards. Scott, you mentioned the
dominoes. I used dominoes for the psychic side. I was brought up learning
how to play those and read them. So what are you reading? Are
you using it just as a point of like distraction or are you actually like
getting something from like you would from a card. Yes, from a card,
because each tile means something, Okay, each tile means something Scott.
So for the psychic side of things like future or specific question, they're more
like a guideline. The mediumship side, I use nothing. I may may
use my pendulum from time to time, but not a lot. That's just
spirit see here, feel, smell whatever. But the domino and I'll use
everything during a reading, I'll use the regular playing cards. I will use
my oracle cards like I said, I use Gypsy Witch, I may I'm
a fan of le normand I like using le normand as well. Yeah,
yeah, yeah, I like using those Christina a lot and the dominoes.
For the psychic side, I use a variety of everything, and then during
it, if me spirit wants to talk, well here we go. Yeah.
No, no, now, the dominoes and the oracle, all that
stuff was that sort of passed down. The dogs were, and the playing
cards were. The other cards like the Gypsy Wizard of the Norman is mine.
I've been using those well, I'll tell you, I'm sixty one and
I've been using those twenty thirty years. Easy wow, and I do.
Sometimes you see shells, I've seen that done. Do you read bones too,
I have them. I very rarely use them, just because of the
acceptance factor. That's fair, that's fair. Yeah. I only use them
usually on a one on one basis, to be honest with you. But
the rest of everything, it's again because of the acceptance thing, stuff like
that. So do you feel like you need them or can you do a
reading, a psychic reading with nothing? I can't do it with nothing,
Scott good point. I can't. And you know it's like if you run
into somebody in or like an acquaintance in a store or whatever. We don't
have our tools with us, right, we just rely on our gut.
Again, I started at age four. I'm sixty one do the math.
So it's just an experience thing, you guys, to be honest with you,
yeah, I mean I never learned how to read cards. I never
learned how to do any of that. I mean I opened up later in
life. So it really was one of those things where I got what I
got and that was it, and I used it. I think I'd love
to. It's just trying to fit in the time to learn a new skill,
and I don't a lot of times too. And I know we're all
from very different parts of the country. Christina, you're Virginia. I'm on
the border of Virginia and Tennessee. Oh okay, there a lot of times
when you do like specific fair This is my experience, guys fairs and you
offer psychic readings because not everybody wants a mediumship reading. Not everybody does they
see a tool. Okay, this is my experience. That's why you know,
I'm shuffling throwing them out. Do you really need them? Know?
Not all the time? Okay, but do they help jump start you with
a specific message? Two? But that's why a lot of times, and
it's just a conditioning thing I've learned through society. Was your mom? Was
your mama working psychic too? I mean? Or did she just do it
because she could casually? For friends? I am the only one to make
a career out of it, right. But when I started at age four
seeing things, I was at a funeral. It was her aunt's, my
great aunt's funeral in Pennsylvania. Uh, and her name was Louise. And
I said to Mom, I said, Louise is here, and Mom said,
no, she's you know, laying right there, meaning in the casket.
I said, no, she's in the back in the corner. She
said, we'll talk later. And that's how it all started. And my
mother and her her she was one of seven her siblings, just groomed me
what to do, what not to do, you know, nothing dark Ever,
they all had the gift as well. Mm hmmm uh and qut.
We're very protective of me growing up. I do a lot with seeing auris
and energy work. My career, just a very brief background was employment law,
human resources, discrimination, sexual harassment. Okay, if I'm doing an
investigation, I'm looking at your aura. I can tell if you're lying or
not. And I knew to push it. Let's face it. If I'm
going to be on the witness stand or rebutting an allegation, I have to
be able to have proof that so and so admitted this, this and this
not that. Oh their aura went dark or bright red and I knew they
were. Like now, that doesn't hold up in court, but it was
a tool that I used for years and even right now to be honest with
you. If my wife and I are having oh, shall I say a
discussion, and she'll say, look, at my aura, look at by
aura. Check it out. Yeah exactly. Wow. Yeah, but the
mediumship at least here is what I do the majority of you know, all
over It's been a bit very busy day, believe it or not. Today
I was busy reading horses. Really. Somebody just says they saw you last
night in Poland. I mean they were watching you from Poland. That was
a very last minute thing, very last minute. They called me about one
or two o'clock in the afternoon and near Hillview, Scott It's about twenty four
mins and this lady's home was very active. Things have been happening. I
was doing a house party that ended at seven, about oh half hour away
and I was able to get over there for about an hour, about an
hour and fifteen minutes too. And they're just now sending me a video of
things that went on. But it was very good. Before we were on
camera, the things I picked up, she was able to verify it's a
harmless location. But there's a couple of tricksters in mischievousness going on. Yeah
yeah, yeah, how interesting. Makes it interesting? Yeah, very well,
it's better than being boring. In fact, Scott, you're going to
Mansfield to OSR. Christina. Are you you knows how he said that?
After you notice how he did that though he just said, it's better than
being boring. Scott, let me tell you this. Sorry. It was
like the next thought after he said that's all right, I get it.
I've been call Wor's things. Yeah, but Christina, are you going to
be at Mansfield in May? I am vending with the Solstice Sisters. Oh,
okay, you're gonna be with Kathy. Okay, very good, Katherine
Dana and yeah, Kathy will be walking the perimeter. Well she's so busy.
I mean, Kathy and Greg are always so busy. But yeah,
yeah, and then Scott, you and I are doing Haunted Hillview. We're
doing Haunted Hillview in June. I can't wait. That's going to be exciting.
And you know I need to because I know you're going to be there.
I don't I'm not signed up for anything else besides that, but I
should do the evening thing because I know I'm reading I'm doing a gallery during
the day, but there's stuff going on at night, and since I've never
been there, I should sign up for that. I would think, Yeah,
yeah, let them know, and everything too we tend to fill it
very quickly. It's a very fun location. Very different than Mansfield, very
different. Mansfield can be angry, intense energy at times. Hill View can
be rather sad. It started off as a working county por farm in nineteen
twenty five, nineteen twenty six. Yeah, you had to work in order
to stay there. Then a nursing home and convalescent home. Yeah, it's
a fun place. I really enjoy going there. It's about an hour and
twenty five minutes from where I live. I'm west of Akron, if anybody
needs west of Akron, thirty five minutes south of Cleveland. But it's fun
going to Hillview, it really is. Yeah, I can't wait. And
it's such a big place, which you know, I had no idea.
You know, they made no idea. Yeah it is, but again,
no heat in the winter, it's brick, no heat, no air conditioning
in the cooler us either, guys, Scott, you and I talked about
that battery operated fans or a must Wow. How do people carry their candles
in no open flames? No? No I to sell no, I mean
I'm serious, because people sell candles of these things all the time. Do
they all like me. Yeah, they've never I've never had a problem with
them being that or that they mount. But a lot of the vendors do
keep the fans because not every room has electricity in it. Oh wow,
yeah, it's it's it can be stifling. June isn't too bad. The
Big Hill con the equivalent to Parris Icon. I think it's either July and
of July first part of August that can be stifling. I always take the
fan. I have two battery operated fans and two extra sets of batteries.
That's a good to take a cooler. Oh yes, no, yes,
you do, you do. But it's a great place. Hey, it's
been on all the big TV shows, guys, has it really? Oh
yeah? The most recent to my knowledge was Jack Osbourne. Okay, oh
wow, Portals to Hell about two years ago. But I enjoyed it.
I mean, I'm going to New Orleans, scott in March to work out.
So aren't we When are you there? When are you there? March
fourteenth? We get in the fourteenth. I'm I'm working either the fifteenth or
sixteenth or just a sixteenth. Seventeenth is Saint Patrick's Day, so we'll be
down there. Also one of those days. Drive north of Baton Rouge to
the Myrtles. Great location bucket list. I have to get this. Will
do we do that? We get there? Do you think do you think
we can get It's ninety miles. We will land. In fact, I
can tell you the details. We're landing at nine thirty am again, pick
up the car and we'll drive about an hour and a half hour two hours
north and spend the afternoon at the Myrtles and drive backwards. Checking in the
hotel is not until four. I want to go and stay and we did
in my time. I took cameras, uh to set up at night.
And uh, you guys ever use the cat toys? You know, the
flashing boys motion most the little cat calls a little Yeah, I mean I
feel bad for the but they make great little things for an investigations. But
it's fine. But uh, like I said, you know what I do.
I try to be an open book when I do these things. So
whatever you want to please ask No, that's great, that's great. So
so all right, so I want to ask you because it's funny. I
love talking to other medium about stuff like this. And we'll get back to
like some of the technical stuff. What do you want people to know?
What's what's what's what? If you could share something with the general public who
doesn't understand what we do, what drives you crazy? What's the misconception?
What's the thing you want them to know? That we're evil, that we
are not evil, that we're not evil, that we are not evil.
A lot of times, and I don't mind explaining to people, you know,
like in Scott, I know you, Christina, I assume you do
not do dark Okay. We are not here to conjure or to bring up
the evil. In fact, when I do my gallery Scott or a seance,
this has happened. If I suspect someone is doing anything dark and again
being able to see or as helps with this guy's yes, I suspect,
I have them leave, okay or not dark. Mine are more message services
from people who have passed on, maybe an angel or two spirit guides,
but people passed on. Today. I read a very nice lady from New
Zealand, okay, who in fact she's on here now I see her there
and it was very nice. We had never met, and it was nice
and three people for her came through. She was in her home in New
Zealand, sixteen hours ahead of us tomorrow over there, and I was in
my office. But we do not do dark messages are for their highest and
best good. I like to say, do we always deliver good news?
No? Now you deliver the truth? Yep, thank you. Yeah.
But you know I do walk through. And it's interesting we talk about this
because I always I kind of have this this mantra that I live by,
and it's do no harm. I'm not you know, sometimes I feel like
I don't need to get into the nitty gritty of the last dying gasps of
someone who you know, we don't need to get into that. We know,
you know what I mean, because I don't think that's helpful. It's
helpful. There's other things we can share to let them know that their father,
brother, whomever is here. It doesn't have to be that. So
you know, to your point, Scott, I do not say and many
many, many times every day I say, you know, this is none
of my business, but here's what the message is I And if they say,
oh, okay, see I don't need to know details, it can
be a dark family secret, right, you know, it's none of our
business. It's not my message as I say that all the time. And
sometimes and I know you must feel the same way. I don't understand sometimes
what I get, you know what I mean, like, I don't know
why I get what I get. Listen, why are they showing me the
bird I'm just using this as an example. Why are they showing me the
bird houses? Oh my god, because that's my father and he built bird
houses, you know. And and I don't need to know why sometimes Scott
this happened. Why are they showing me dentures, false teeth and laughing?
Yeah? Yeah here he could never keeping in his mouth. He would not
laugh or season they'd fly out? Why out? I know, right,
yeah, that stuff like that. Yeah. But and we don't need to
know to get into the details. Guys, we all agree on that that
it's none of our business. We are there for comfort, in my opinion,
this is my opinion comfort to let them know on the other side or
those on the other side are okay. A lot of times I'm getting this.
Well are they say, say, Grandma's gone? Well, is grandma
mad at me? Yeah? Okay? If I pick up on something,
I will tell them. But that's rare. Mine all experience has been many
times, guys that the spirit is not angry or nor does it hold hold
as judges. I don't. I don't feel like I feel the same way
as you feel. I don't feel like they do either. I think there's
too many other things. They're in a different world, and they understand the
complexities of the human condition. Yeah, to understand why we said what we
said, or felt what we felt, or did what we did, because
they don't have any of this other human stuff that's that's interfering. Now,
they get it, So how would why would they be mad? They're not
mad? Yeah, Scott. Many times people are afraid. I'm sure you
guys maybe have all ran into this too. They are afraid to hear from
them for the fear that those who have passed are angry or something. Does
it happen, Yeah, but not a lot not. I know if I've
ever had that. I don't know that I've ever had someone come through it.
Yeah. Uh, sometimes too. I did have one come through last
week. It was before Christmas. I'm talking about it. That left.
Oh, they knew exactly what I meant and started to cry. I said,
I do not need to know the details. This is the message that
they know about the theft. They're not angry or they disappointed, Yeah,
but not angry. I don't need to know what who was involved. No,
not at all, none at all, none at all. It's it's
like I say, it's not ours, it's not ours, and I don't
need to understand it. And if you get it, good, good for
you. Yeah. This is about as low tech as it gets. But
I've heard it described as you guys are like a telephone. You're connecting this
party in this party, and you're just the condo it in between the device
that does. Yeah. All kinds of analogies for us too, but we
uh yeah, we relay the messages. And one thing too that I'm Scott,
just to build on your original question. You don't need to see us
every week, No, okay. Messages do not change. Okay, they
don't change just because Christina, I could be reading you okay today and there
could be someone a message from a friend who's passed I talked to you in
three months. Oh you want to hear from them again. We can't make
them show up. No, we can't. If they don't want to,
we're not going to do it, right, It's not up to us.
We're just to tell you know what, I can put a payphone in your
house. If nobody calls, there's nobody to talk to, you know,
only talk to the person. If someone calls, you know, you don't
have the number to call out. It really is that way, you know.
And and if they if you talk to them today, they're not going
to call back tomorrow and say, so, what have you been up to?
You know, what did you do yesterday? You know, it just
doesn't it isn't like that, you know. We just want you to know
they're okay, exactly. And a lot to your point Scott too, a
lot of times people ask, well, what are they doing now? Well,
you know, they're healed, they're walking. I had someone a couple
of weeks ago who they wanted. I didn't understand this too. I have
both legs here. They had one amputated later in life, and they had
both legs. Things don't change a lot, you know, they don't change
a lot too. It's like now this time of year too, with the
new year, and a lot of this is my culture, the Italian background.
We do a big house cleansing, okay, get rid of the sage,
the holy water, Out with the old, in with the new.
For me, here red ribbon around the door knobs to keep out them below.
Oh yes, oh yes, sir, uh huh. Things like that
very ritualistic. Mm hm. And we're not in line with the devil either,
No, we are not. You know. It drives me crazy and
you know, and people like to get on, like trolls, social media
trolls will get on and say, you know you're doing the devil comes through
and says these things. Well, listen, why would the devil want to
provide comfort to someone who just lost her husband? Why why would he want
to Why would he want to give her that peace of mind? That's not
what that devil is all about. It isn't. No, or they're tricksters.
You're making it up. Okay, yeah, we're making up these specifics
or right yeah, or it's that you're being tricked. Now. I'm going
to say something here too that and again, I've been doing this a long
time and I don't get into religion much. I won't, but let's look
at some of the things of like the annunciation. Okay, the three kings
were told to go back to their own countries in a dream, right,
things like that. There are some examples. That's just me when I say.
Some people say, oh, there's nothing like that there, Well,
yeah, there kind of is. Well, a virgin had a baby,
They talked to snakes, they parted sees. I mean, come on,
I mean, you know, look, there's stuff. You know what I
mean, there's stuff. And I will be the first one to tell you.
I don't understand it. I don't know how I do what I do,
right, I don't know. And why is it that it's stronger with
some people than others? Are they more open? Now? One thing I
do, guys, And I'm not sure about you guys, because we all
read differently. We all have these people who sit there, yes, the
whole reading. Yeah, and you know what I do, We're done.
Yeah, I don't do it. I say, you're wasting my energy and
your time and I could be helping somebody who really wants to be here.
I want to tell you a story because this happened, and I just had
this conversation with somebody recently. I had a woman reading with this woman a
few weeks back, and it was lovely. Her husband came through and you
know whatever said he said, I don't even remember she recommended me to someone
else. I didn't know when the person booked the appointment or sat with me
that she was connected. It wasn't until the end of the reading that she
told me she was connected to the person that referge her. And I don't
usually want them to tell me anything because it throws me off. You know.
Well, evidently the woman's brother that came through in the reading was the
husband of the first lady that came through, so it was like her sister
in law and a lot of the same things I guess came through the reading,
so it was validation that he was coming through. I didn't catch it.
Usually I forget, so I didn't really catch it. She stopped me
about halfway through and said, I need to tell you you read from my
sister in law, and she was very pleased with the reading, and her
husband came through, which is my brother. And I've heard all this before
on the video, so we don't have to keep going. He said,
don't shut him down. He's here talking to you. I mean, don't
shut him down, don't I didn't know that until you told me. You
know what I mean. Don't you know it's coming from him? But it's
just funny how people are you know, yeah or they I mean, I've
had so many stories. I'm sure you are. We've all had him.
In fact, someone here just made the comment here skeptics are fine, that's
yeah, it is, but they're also open. That's the difference. This
gentleman's making that too. It's the ones who are there who just they want
to try and stump you. Right. Chris Brown is a medium too.
I'm working with him in uh Up in Maine. So Chris is the nice
medium. Yeah, and and so he gets it. You know, I
certainly don't mind people that say, you know, I'm skeptical. I hope
so, I hope this works. I'm open to it. Then there's go
ahead proof you're not gonna get me. It doesn't even then to Scott.
They won't admit anything. They sit there, Kay, I need you.
I need to hear your voice. Yeah. It's interesting though, when you
have a few like that where they're doing that and that's fine and you're talking
all at once, the like goes. Often they have burst into tears,
yeah, because something resonates and that is the like the closure that they need,
you know. It is messages can be so healing to people in their
dark at times. And I consider psychic mediums as healers in my book.
Oh that's a good way of putting it, Christina. Now too, I
read for a couple of groups around who unfortunately they have lost their children.
One is to drug overdose, whether accidental or intentional. The other is to
sign I do a couple of times a year for both groups. Draining.
Oh, yes it is, and the healing messages. Just what you said,
Christina, it makes it all worth it, if that makes any sense.
It does. Yeah, and they thank you the tears. It's draining,
you know, Hey, it's straining on us, you know, I
protect I put my bubble around me. I tell a lot of my clients
to armor up, like ladies like Joan of Arc, gentlemen like we're Archangel
Michael or King Arthur. That way, that armor is there and it bounces
right back because we can. We have to be a spot on and strong
for our first client as we do our last one. Yes, yeah,
and it can be exhausting, you know, as you get through, you
get to the end, you know, you get a day of four or
five readings by the fifth one year, Yeah, you know it can be
exhausting, Yeah, learn how to you learn how to manage that a little
bit, you know, Yeah, yeah, but it's it's uh, like
I said, I enjoy it. I am very blessed if you will to
be very very busy and uh making great connections like two of you. Scott,
we met in May, Christina. We did watch you guys, but
this is our first interaction, right yeah, yeah. Stephanie says, I'd
like to hear how other mediums prepare and open to spirit prior to sessions.
If you can touch on it, I'd love to hear your perspective. What
do you say? I prepare me again? Now I get accused of doing
this too much. Protect, Protect, protect again. Okay, Like,
if I'm in a space, there's my bubble me. I bring in archangel
Michael, he's right here. And Saint Benedict as evil and demons. We
all know a gentleman out in the industry. He does a lot of demonology
work. Saint Benedict. He has a tattoo on his arm word off against
evil and negativity. That's how I prepare to protect. It gives me comfort
at the same time. Then let me know, here's the hard part.
Guys, see here, feel smell. Okay, it's not all visual.
I could see, Scott, you could hear and feel. Christina you could
smell. Okay, Well she does sometimes, but sorry, give me an
opening, Greg, I'm boring. I'm not. No, I don't.
I don't profess at all. She's not a medium, okay, but we
could all get different ways it changes. It's changed for me over time.
It's become so much more fine tuned, you know, whereas before, you
know, when I was first opening up a while back, it was all
like being being being see it in my face, and and now it's it's
I do get that, but it's the those little nuances, those little it's
almost like that little three millisecond flash of something and then a microburst of emotion
and you just know things you know. And that's how it's more. Sometimes
I say things I don't even know why I'm saying it. Yes, you
know, yes, or it's an expression. So how do you prepare for
it? Go back to the original question, Well, somewhat the same way.
I do use a bubble, but I put a bubble around the both
when I say the both of us myself and the citter the people I'm around,
and it's always Look, you're invited within this dome if you are here
for the highest and best good of the person that I'm reading for. But
I want you to come, and I want you to share the space with
me. I want you to stand close to me. I want you to
I want to know. I trust you play me like an instrument, use
all my emotions, my feelings, my thoughts, my memories. And that's
kind of how I just give them permission to use me. You know,
one thing, Scott, you just said to me. In order to be
protected, Okay, that's how I prepare. I have to. It comes
from here and here. Okay, if you're sitting there and you have whatever
rock or amulet there while you're talking, it ain't gonna protect you. Yeah,
I don't. It's the intention. It's the intention. It's all intention.
You could have a rock that someone gave you, uh they found it
in the street that is heart shaped, and that means more to you than
protection. It's your intention here and here. It's like I take my rocks
now, Greg, what's that? But but honestly, he's right. I
mean if you if I had a rock, I mean, the only way
it's gonna protect me is if I threw it at somebody because I've got it
all. I've got it all in my I've got it all in here.
You know it's I don't It's not to say I don't need it. I
don't usually use a lot of crystals and things like that. I don't feel
like I need it. I just I set it up, I set the
boundaries, and I don't know about you. Go ahead, Greg. One
thing too, just to build on her question, is trusting what we get?
Yes, guys, that is the hardest. I've worked with a lot
of people in workshops who are mentoring them. I'm sure both of you do
on a variety of levels. How do I know? It's a trust thing.
It's an experienced thing. You know, if you have a messages from
spirit or whatever, you as the reader reading me, you have to be
able to trust it. You know, Are we going to be spot on
all the time? No? We are not. Do we doubt? Yeah?
But we have to. It's experience. It learns the gut, you
know. I trust what I get and if you don't understand, or the
sitter doesn't understand it. At right this moment, I'm kind of okay with
it because I trust it enough, like it's either I'm not interpreting it properly
or it'll make sense to you later, but you'll get it, yeah,
Scott. And the number of messages I get, oh, by the way,
I got home after our reading or two days later, that's who it
was. Or I talked to so and so it made sense. All right,
I'm gonna say something to you too, because you're both on the line,
and I don't know if this means anything to anybody else. I don't
usually get readings, and I don't get messages while I'm sitting here, but
my old factory, my sense of smell. I don't get that a lot
in a reading, but when I do, I trust it. Now I'm
alone, there's nobody here with me. I'm completely alone, and since you
got on this call, I've had the smell of cigarette smoke in here and
I don't smoke, and there's nobody around me that smokes. So I'm telling
you I'm getting like big time cigarettes. And I don't know if that's connected
to either one of you or someone in the I don't have anything else at
this point. I'm just all I know is it's not me. So I'm
going to get dad quit smoking twice. Your dad quit smoking twice, and
he smoked a pipe for a while. One of his father's Day gifts for
me when I was like ten was a pipe. Really he quit smoking at
twice. And every now and then I will get either a cigarette smoke or
a pipe smoke, not a cigar. He never did that too. This
is a cigarette smoke. This isn't a pipe. I don't believe it's not
a pipe. Did that makes sense? Because he did? He did quit
twice. He had quit for about oh yeah, yeah, I want to
say ten or twelve years before he died. But yeah, every now and
then, that's uh it because it was somewhat of a point of contention between
him and mother. You're not wrong, Scott. My sense of smell tends
to be very strong as well. I don't get it a lot, but
occasionally I do. I remember when I was opening up. This is years
ago, I was sitting with a friend at a class. We were taking
a class. We were taking a pendulum class, and it was a small
little room, you know, it was like an old Victorian so it was
a small, small little parlor and they were about twelve or thirteen of us
in the room, and I said to the woman next to me, I
said, my god, somebody just I said, I can't stand it.
It's like they sprayed cologne like perfume, and I was getting a headache.
I said, I need to I mean, it was in the room and
I said, I'm going to go step out. She says, that's odd.
I don't smell anything last night, guys, last night, Scott,
you were talking about the house in near Youngstown, Okay, maple all at
once, there were four or five of us in the room, and I
said, my god, what's with the maple smell? Maple syrup something like
that. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Only one other person picked up on
that. The maple smell too now. To me, something like that is
a cooking smell, a comfort smell, things like that. I think it
was a former female homeowner who did pass in the house, but not everybody
got it. It was that fleeting, phantom smell and then it was gone.
And I will tell you the cigarette smoke is gone right now, and
it's because we acknowledged it. And that happens too. As soon as you
acknowledge it, it goes away. It's like it's like if you get you
know, there's something going on with my head, why do I feel something
here? You know? Oh, well he had a stroke. I'm just
using it, making this as up as an example. But and then it
goes away. It's like gone, yeah, yes, And if we don't
pick up on it, good point, Christina. If we don't pick up
on it, we'll get something else, that's right. Or if they give
you something you don't understand, they'll give you another thing that helps you get
it. You know, Yes, sir, it's amazing, broke y'all.
Completely clear sentient, Yeah, I would say so. I mean clear sentient
meaning. I mean I think of clear sentient as two way. I mean
there's feelings, which is like, oh my god, my feelings, my
feelings are hurt, but there's also I feel you know. It means yeah,
yeah, well yeah, clairvoyant seeing clear sentiment the feeling, but then
again the ow oh or you know, like uh, someone who may have
had bad elbows or something like that too, uh seeing hearing smelling though,
Scott, I agree, I do pick up I tend to pick up a
lot of sense. Yeah, and I don't I do on occasion but it's
not it's not common. But when I do, I trust it. And
that's why I say, I get that cigar smoke, and I know there's
nobody can hear this, folks, so and I'm not you know, I'm
focused on this. I'm not sitting here trying to figure out who's here.
So whoever it is is trying to make themselves known. And I'm not cigars
cigarette. It's cigarette, Okay, yeah, cigars different. This is definitely
cigar, tobacco and cigarette. They're all three a different house fire. It's
not not no, no, no, that's a good point, Scott.
To your point there, we know like the cigarette smell, that it's a
comfort versus a fire, which is oh god, tragedy. Yeah, that's
when they go hand in hand, like the smelling and then the tension or
the anxiety. That's how we know if it was a comfort or did this
person unfortunately were they badly burned because of some sort of fire or an accident.
Do you ever blend the clears Now I'm trying to understand what does that
mean? What does that mean to you? Greg? Blend the clears?
Well, just like what I said, Scott, we could get the smell
like of smoke and it's a comfort or a smell of smoke like a fire,
And there I get all tends as well. And you might even get
in your mind's eye a flash of flames. Yeah. Yeah, so in
that sense, I would say, yes, I mean I feel like I
do. I'll get the visual and then sometimes I'll get the something else,
you know what I mean that you'll just get in a different way. And
I feel like we all have different They show us different things. We have
our own library or something, you know. Just spirit guys, it's not
up to us. Yeah, if they are ornery and they have a trickster
there, it's not up to us. We can say all day they're they're
not going to behave no. And you know, it's not like you can
practice this like you would practice. You know, a magician practice is doing
a trick and you can go on stage and do the trick. Yes,
you know, it's not like that with us, because every person is different,
every spirit is different. It's different every single time. Gret I'd like
to ask you for say, someone is I know I call it an awakening
when you come into your gifts. If someone's going through that and they're confused,
scared. What kind of advice would you offer them? What kind of
help should they seek out? To protect, first of all, and to
trust? Okay, and if they need to practice, which we all do,
hopefully they have someone they can talk to to trust, to read.
Okay, that's going to give them honest feedback. Yeah, but to practice
because a lot of times too, Scott, and I'm sure you and I
maybe at times have been through this too, where we don't say anything and
it's just, oh, it like bottles up inside of us. Okay,
you need a community. You need a community. Yeah. To me,
I call it this ease, not disease, dis ease. If we don't
say something it makes us anxious or not unstable, but uneasy disease. Yeah.
Here is another question, Sherry asks, do you ever withhold information in
a reading if you think it might hurt the person's feelings? No, I
will couch it in a certain way. I try and finesse things, Okay,
in a certain way. Excuse me, in a certain way. They
are there for us. Now. I am not going to again. I
will not be that blood. Okay. Like if someone comes through angry and
it's like I may say why have someone here who's come through who feels a
little bit agitated or irritated. And it depends on the feeling too. Okay,
we are not there to sugarcoat. Okay, So yeah, Sherry,
to answer your question, I do say it, but I do try and
choose the proper words to ease the pain, because you never know. I've
had many, many, many situations Scott, and I'm sure you have too,
where it can really throw someone into some sort of an emotional episode.
Well, after all, the isn't the purpose of what you're doing is to
help them heal? Yes, Like you said earlier Christina, a while ago,
we can be considered good point, a type of healers, right.
I think you have to look at it is what's the information and how is
it relevant and how will it help them? Yeah? Yeah, to your
point, Scott, this just happened, Christina. Just happened between Christmas and
New Year's. I was doing a house party and someone came through and it's
like, oh, they they didn't mean to die. And I'm saying and
I hear, yeah I did, Yes, I did, And I'm there,
uh and just like this, I'm there, Okay, how am I
doing? This, I will not say that in a group setting. I
pulled them aside so it was time for their individual reading. And this person
came through, and I'm there, do you resonate at all with someone who
unfortunately harmed themselves their own life? Well, we're not exactly sure, but
I none of us think they did. That's when I started to describe what
I was seeing. A gentleman there who is well, and he kept saying,
sorry about the hospital. That's important. And then now and I said
the hospital, and I said, my head's tingling, bumping, bumping.
It is someone who was hospitalized for mental illness who did in fact take their
own life. And then it clicked. But you don't just come right and
say say, oh, you were dead, wrong because so and so did
in fact kill themselves. You can't do that. I can't do that.
Guy is important. I'll tell you an interesting thing. I had met with
a woman once who her mother came through, and her mother was telling me
something so extreme and so horrific about her youth that I didn't want to say
it because I didn't see any benefit to this woman whatsoever. There was nothing
about this that was going to make this woman feel better. And the woman
that was sitting with me said, my mother told me a deathbed confession.
It was a deathbed confession, is what she said. Can you find out
if it's true? And I said, well, I can't really ask questions.
But meanwhile, I'm getting this thing that was so horrific. And I
think she could see the look on my face because I didn't even know how,
you know, I don't even know how to say this. It's just
that bad. And she finally said, listen, I heard the deathbed confession.
It was bad. Just just share with me. And I did,
and that's what it was. But I, you know, I really held
back because I didn't I didn't think it was going to be of a benefit
to her, but for her, she needed to know, you know.
Yeah, I've had this happen a couple of times. Guys with paternity children
they didn't know they had, yeah, siblings. I just had this happen
just Lady King was there. Her father came through. She was upset.
She says, I need to know the truth. And I said to something
about is this a paternity question? She said, yeah, her father wasn't
her father. It was a neighbor and dad was there. That he knew
it. But he treated this lady, this woman, she was a lady
as if she was his. Wow. Yeah, I've had a couple of
those, a couple of those two mm hmm. What about Larry's asking us
about scrying scrying? Oh yeah, Larry's a buddy of mine. Scrying.
I do workshops, guys. I use the black mirror. I do use
the crystal ball, although that's very hard to use incense, smoke, candle,
soot, things like that. All right, real quick, what very
famous movie that we all have seen many, many, many times. Who
there's two types of scrying in it? We've all seen it many times.
Who's the one? Magic mirror on the wall? Is that when you're talking
about anything not that think about it. Dorothy runs away, Professor Marvel puts
on the turbine in the wagon with the crystal right, he sees an m
that's one. Later on in the color version, it is the wicked witch
in the green ball and they're running through the poppy fields. That's crying.
But Scott right there, mirror mirror on the wall is one of the most
famous in the world. That's what it is. Yeah, yeah, sprite,
but it can be used to future past. I know people who use
it to help tune into past lives. Stacy a friend of mine. She's
been to a couple of my scrying workshops too. But yeah, uh okay,
here you go. The ancient Egyptians used to use a high polished shield.
There he was. Their generals are looking in the shield to see how
the troops and battle are doing. You can use a bowl of the black
bowl of water. Okay, that's hard because if you bump the table,
you're gonna jar it. Central American Indians would use a bowl of human blood.
Don't do that. Don't depends on the human but you know, generally
speaking, now that's scrying. Guys. How many times have you looked in
the clouds and see the shapes? Yeah? So so what is what is
the I mean quickly because we only have like five minutes left here, believe
it or not like flying through. But when you when you scry, when
you look at either in the mirror, in the fire, in the ball,
whatever it is that you're you're using, what is the process that you're
just letting your mind go blank and it's what comes to you and it takes
the focus. Scott, first of all no, here and here protection Again,
we are not letting in darker evil guys. This is where we armor
up, bring in our angels and sayings whoever to help protect us and focus
you may and to your point Scott, again, we're looking in the mirror,
the crystal not only are we gonna see here? See? Are we
gonna hear something? Are we gonna feel a touch? Are we gonna smell?
M it's all your senses, guys. You know it's amazing, amazing.
I am teaching that at Hellview, Scott. I'm not sure on that
day or not, but I okay, yeah, is it around that time
or I think I think to check it out. But you can, guys,
you can use any object. Let me show you. You can well
shoot the black of your cell your phone. Yeah, it's a focused tool.
And if you're focusing in it, close your eyes, look up behind
your forehead like it's a movie screen. But yeah, anything can be used.
Uh do you see patterns in the grass? You know the clouds?
Right? Yeah? I do use the crystal ball. That is the hardest
because of the shape. Oh really yeah. The easiest is the mirror,
the black mirror. Mm hmm, how interesting so, Greg, we have
like just a few minutes left. Tell us how we can find you.
People want to find you. I know you've got to. You've got to.
Your fans are here on on in the comments and they know where to
find you. But how about people that would like to have a reading with
you? It is on Facebook under Gregory Nicholas and Instagram psychic greg Nick.
I post where I'm at all the time. I do readings over Facebook,
Messenger, video phone readings, things like that. I said, Uh,
I'm in Ohio now Buffalo is coming up, Scott. You and I have
another project in the works for this year as well in June. Yeah yeah,
yeah there and may as well. We'll be seeing each other again.
Oh yes, yes, yeah, but yes, Facebook under Gregory Nicholas.
And but right now I am booking out about four weeks for a phone read
good for you. Yeah yeah, I'm very lucky. But I do enjoy
it. Well. People here obviously know how good you are, because that's
all they've been commenting on, how good you are and how great your readings
are. And I just love this. I must say, guys, the
couple of these that I've done, I have never and I sincerely mean this
have this many too, and I just want to thank everyone. I really
do appreciate it, because, let's face it, it's nice to hear.
It is nice to hear, and it gives you that boost because, you
know what, you can doubt yourself too, because this is not coming from
us. You feel a little vulnerable sometimes just waiting for it to come,
you know what I mean. Once you learn to trust it just kind of
you know, it's so much better because then it just does. But if
you spend time worrying about it, you can block them out, you know.
And we have all these nice people here making all these comments. It
takes that one person just to like throw you well, yeah, you know,
they're everywhere, and unfortunately that's what dealing with the public is about.
But I don't even just between you and I. You know, I'll find
trolls on Facebook that will decide that they need to make a comment and I
just blocked. I don't comment. I just make them go away. I'm
not interested. I don't either, Scott, I won't, I will not
comment. I block. Yeah, I don't want any of that. It
depends on what it is, Christina. Now, if it's face to face,
and then there's comments like I'm doing a group thing and there's comments.
I do call them out. Well, you kind of have to. It's
not like you can just hit the lead, you know what I mean.
Once you get to know me, you'll understand that a little bit more.
That's just my personality. And yeah, funny your face in loud, and
yeah, this has been great, guys, Thank you so much. I'm
being real pleasure. Greg. I think you're coming on. That works fine?
Yeah, yeah, no, but this is perfect. I mean,
you look good, you sound good. I think it's perfect, and I'm
so excited to have you here. We'll have to have you on again at
some point when we have some new things to talk about, yeah, like
I said, or if there's anything else you want to know, like how
to see auras that I do a lot of workshops with, believe it or
not, dousing rocks, I use those quite frequently. Yeah, they're great.
But no, thank you both so much. I truly really do appreciate
it. Greg. I'm going to ask you to hang on the call a
little bit. We're going to close the show out, but then I get
to chat with you afterwards after the show is over and so I just want
to thank everyone for being here. The audience has been amazing today, We've
