About Me

Hi, I’m Joe Hodgson, and I live in London with my wonderful wife and two boys, Luke and Jack. By weekday, I’m a dedicated .NET developer, and on weekends, you’ll find me coaching football—a balance of logic and passion that defines my life.

For as long as I can remember, I’ve been captivated by the nature of reality, consciousness, and the cosmos. Like many, I once believed the vastness of the universe made connecting with other intelligent life nearly impossible. But in 2019, my perspective shifted dramatically, and I found myself diving into countless rabbit holes in search of answers.

This journey led me deep into topics like UFOs, advanced ancient civilizations, consciousness, and spirituality. Driven by a curiosity to explore these frontiers further, I felt called to share this quest with others. That’s how Up the Vibe was born in 2022—a podcast where I connect with incredible guests, each bringing unique insights and stories to these fascinating topics.

I hope you enjoy these thought-provoking conversations as much as I do. And if you have a story to share or an idea to explore, I’d love to hear from you—let’s Up the Vibe together!
