308 - What if the world you call “reality” is only a tiny fragment of what actually exists?
In this episode, Evan McDermod breaks down the architecture of the Matrix — the psychological, cultural, technological, and metaphysical systems that shape human perception without us ever noticing.
This is not sci-fi. This is the deeper truth mystics, shamans, occultists, and quantum theorists have pointed to for centuries: Reality is a construct. Consciousness is the author. And most people are living inside a scripted dream.
We explore how the Matrix forms, who maintains it, how it programs identity, and—most importantly—how to wake up from it.
If you’ve ever felt like life is scripted, like something is “off,” or that you are meant for a deeper reality… this episode speaks directly to that inner knowing.
