Speaker 1 It was remarkable to be in that room and see someone reading someone else's mind over and over and over again. When you see it, you can't unsee it.
One of the best remote viewers was the Burbank

Speaker 1 police chief. CIA was in his office and saw that he had like marked on the map where submarines were.
Well, that's alarming.

Speaker 32 Did you listen to the telepathy tapes? Non-speaking children on the autism spectrum are able to read the minds of people.

Speaker 34 It is mind-blowing.

Speaker 1 Have you heard of the telepathy tapes?

Speaker 27 I hope that you go listen to these tapes.

Speaker 34 If you want to watch a mind-blowing documentary, you need to see this.

Speaker 32 Kai is the host of a new podcast series called The Telepathy Tapes.

Speaker 26 Please welcome Kai Dickens.

Speaker 31 How would you describe or explain what telepathy actually means?

Speaker 1 Telepathy historically is reading someone's mind. You know exactly what they're thinking.
That's what I thought this was at first. Parents started saying right away, this isn't just sheer telepathy.

Speaker 1 We think we might be sharing a consciousness or no languages that they've never learned. Well, how is that possible? Or tell the future and accurately predict something is going to happen.

Speaker 1 The amount of messages parents were telling me that they were receiving from the other side through their child was wild. But I think we are working with consciousness coming in from somewhere else.

Speaker 31 What have you found in your research looking at animals and telepathy?

Speaker 1 That is a beautiful element to this. There are mental fields around certain animals.

Speaker 31 I was even going to ask you about the connection between dreams and telepathy. Has there been any connection there?

Speaker 32 The number one health and wellness podcast.

Speaker 31 Jay Shetty. Jay Shetty.
The one, the only Jay Shetty.

Speaker 31 Hey, everyone. Welcome back to On Purpose, the place you've come to become happier, healthier, and more healed.
Today's guest is someone that I'm really excited to talk about.

Speaker 31 These are the themes, the ideas that I really want OnPurpose community to get exposed to.

Speaker 31 They're conversations that I believe we should be having, need to be having as humanity, and they push us forward. They challenge us.

Speaker 31 They maybe make us feel uncomfortable, but they propel our thinking forward.

Speaker 31 And today's guest is none other than Kai Dickens, an award-winning acclaimed filmmaker and podcast host known for diving into complex social issues to spark change.

Speaker 31 Kai is the host of The Telepathy Tapes, which is a new podcast going absolutely viral. If you don't know about it, I don't know where you've been.

Speaker 31 Kai digs into the incredible abilities of non-speaking individuals with autism, uncovering mind-blowing stories of telepathy beyond different dimensions.

Speaker 31 The series invites viewers to challenge their ways and rethink what communication really means and what the human mind is truly capable of. Please welcome to On Purpose, Kai Dickens.

Speaker 31 Kai, thank you so much for being here.

Speaker 1 Thank you for having me.

Speaker 31 Yeah, it's so nice to meet you. And I want to dive straight in.
And the question I want to ask, Kai, before we get into it is, who were you before

Speaker 31 you dove into the telepathy tapes? Before you dove into this work, tell me a bit about who you were, what you believed, what you valued, and what your system of thinking was.

Speaker 1 I was a social justice filmmaker. So I was working on documentaries that were really diving into complex social issues, right, to drive change.

Speaker 1 So whether that was healthcare access or paid family leave, affordability and access, just things like this that were not in the spiritual realm at all. And I've always been very curious.

Speaker 1 I've always been a seeker. I've always had a deeply spiritual side of myself that was a bit gun-shy around organized religion because I've also seen the pain that's caused.

Speaker 1 But I was just plowing forward with doc films that I was trying to make a difference around.

Speaker 1 And the telepathy tapes, entering that world and being immersed in the lives of non-speakers for the past three and a half years has completely altered me, every fiber of me.

Speaker 1 And it's made me see the world entirely differently.

Speaker 31 Can you tell us how you first discovered it? Because like you said, your work was somewhat different to what this is now. And I want to know how it first came across your table.

Speaker 1 So as a documentary filmmaker, what often happens is before you even get funding funding for a project, you might be working and researching and immersed in this world for two, I mean, for months, if not years, right?

Speaker 1 And so you have to really love what you're looking at. And right in between, after my last film, I had just moved to California.
was trying to figure out what I was going to do next.

Speaker 1 And then I lost two very good friends in the prime of their lives, like the type of people that, you know, they lost.

Speaker 1 They left kids behind, just unbelievable people. And I had a friend stop by to bring flowers.
And she's not deeply religious. She's just very well read.
And I would say she's spiritual.

Speaker 1 And she said to me, you know, they're just right here. And I'm like, what do you mean they're just right here? And she's like, they're just right here.

Speaker 1 And I thought, how can you say that with such conviction? And she said, you just start reading.

Speaker 1 If you start reading, you'll see that all the material is out there around where we're going, what we're doing, what this all means. A lot of research has been done.

Speaker 1 She knew I had kind of had a science mind. And she goes, so just start looking.
So I made a commitment at that moment.

Speaker 1 Okay, I don't know what I'm doing next for my next project, which I thought was going to be a film at the time, but whatever it is, I want to answer these big questions.

Speaker 1 I don't want it to be about social issues in America anymore. I want it to be about human issues and why we're here and what we're doing and what this all means.

Speaker 1 Because I was trying to figure out where are my friends.

Speaker 1 And I started diving into books about animal consciousness, plant communication, Ian Stevenson's work around reincarnation and children, and was reading everything I could get my hands on.

Speaker 1 And that also included listening to some podcasts. And there's one I loved called The Cosmos and You.
And they did an interview with Dr.

Speaker 1 Diane Hennessy Powell, who was a neuroscientist, Johns Hopkins educated, Harvard, she worked at Harvard, who had been studying widespread claims of telepathy in non-speakers with autism.

Speaker 1 And I, something hit me like a lightning bolt. And I always feel, I deeply believe that if something is intended for you, it won't miss you.

Speaker 1 And in that moment, I just thought, this is whatever is here, this is it. This has the answer.
And I think part of it, too, was my brother's high functioning on the spectrum.

Speaker 1 And the thing that I know, just my own experience with autism, is this sense of telling the truth. You know, there's not a lot of jockeying for ego-driven purposes.

Speaker 1 There tends to be a deep truth-telling, which is one of the most beautiful things I think about autism in some respects.

Speaker 1 And so I felt the messengers in this case are the most trustworthy and unassuming. So that kind of led me down this path.

Speaker 31 Had you always felt that way about all your projects before as well, that there was always this very clear.

Speaker 1 I think most of my films that are self-driven, you know, there are some that are work for hire, someone just has you direct it.

Speaker 1 But the ones that I generate tend to be deeply personal, deeply specific. I'm trying to answer or heal something.

Speaker 1 But there were two films that I've made where I remember or projects where I would actually start praying through it.

Speaker 1 Like, if I'm going to die, just please let me get to the finish line of this because I'm intended to do this. If I don't make it, then it just feels so big.
And this was one of those.

Speaker 1 There was two in my life. And the first was my first film, Fish Out of Water, and this one.
Wow.

Speaker 31 To describe for someone who doesn't know anything about this, how would you you describe or explain what telepathy actually means?

Speaker 1 Telepathy historically is right reading someone's mind. You know exactly what they're thinking.
So, or you could hear their thoughts as though someone was speaking it.

Speaker 1 And that's what I thought this was at first. And I thought there could be a scientific explanation around the, you know, when often a sight is muted, other senses heighten.

Speaker 1 And in this case,

Speaker 1 it feels a lot deeper. And in fact, a lot of the parents started saying right away, this isn't just sheer telepathy.

Speaker 1 We think we might be sharing a consciousness or there's some sort of merging going on. It feels deeper and much more complex than simple mind reading.

Speaker 28 Wow.

Speaker 31 And is it mind reading? They're feeling everything from,

Speaker 31 as I've heard and seen, of like numbers and places and letters, or is it also emotions and feelings? And

Speaker 31 what are we seeing that spectrum? Yeah.

Speaker 1 And I think, you know, again, it depends on the individual. But from a lot of the non-speakers I've met, I'd say the gift could be varied.

Speaker 1 There are some parents who will say, my child will know exactly what I'm doing during the day when they're at school. They'll know what I'm thinking, where I went, who I met with.
And what is that?

Speaker 1 That's not telepathy. That's something bigger, right?

Speaker 1 There's some parents who say, if I, one of my favorite stories is one of the non-speakers, once he started communicating, knew all the things there was to know about Harry Potter or different books.

Speaker 1 And the parents thought, how? And this individual said, I... I read them through my sister's mind when she was reading them.
And so just really fascinating things.

Speaker 1 Is that mind reading or is it like fully, And then there's been teachers who say, my students have said that they can see through my eyes or hear through my ears.

Speaker 1 And it feels as though they're might be using my neurology in some way because their neurology is unreliable. It's helpful and grounding to utilize mine.

Speaker 1 And so I'm just telling you what other people have told me. And the reports are varied and wide.

Speaker 1 But something I've heard from many teachers in particular or parents is that like, Sometimes the thought will occur and it's like, well, where did that thought even generate?

Speaker 1 Which makes you wonder, like, is it coming, is consciousness coming from a different place? And we're tapping into it together.

Speaker 1 The parents and teachers who are in this world, they just have so many questions. Like, what is this? Because it does feel bigger than typical, I'm reading your mind telepathy.

Speaker 31 Should wait, did you reach out to Dr. Powell?

Speaker 28 How did that go?

Speaker 1 Okay, so yeah, I reached out to Dr. Powell and I said, Look, I'm a filmmaker.
I'm very interested in what you've been uncovering. I'd love to get to know you.

Speaker 1 We did a few Zoom calls, and then I flew up to meet her. And it was wonderful because one of the first things I did is I wanted to see, like, what's the scope of this?

Speaker 1 And I asked if she wouldn't mind reading some emails off from parents. And of course, you know, HIPAA law, she can't show me the names.

Speaker 1 But I saw in her inbox, like the folder of so many emails from parents. And I thought, good grief, this is like really big.

Speaker 1 And she started reading some of the emails. And of course, I think anyone walking into this has a healthy dose of skepticism.
I mean, telepathy seems like a superpower in the Spider-Man movie.

Speaker 1 It doesn't feel real. And so.
But these parents, one after the other, were saying, look, I didn't believe my wife. And I tested this myself.
And I'm a doctor.

Speaker 1 So I couldn't fathom this, but this is real, this is happening. And so many emails from people like that.
It's not that they were baked in believing. They were coming to Dr.

Speaker 1 Powell with their own questions around, how is this possible? Can someone answer this for me? And they were coming in from all over the world.

Speaker 1 At that point, I realized that, like, the only place these people had right now was Dr. Powell's inbox, that most of them hadn't ever met each other.

Speaker 1 And it felt like the strings weren't being tied together yet, you know? And Dr. Powell has her own practice.

Speaker 1 Like, she's a researcher and scientist that just felt like this was so much bigger than honestly either of us and certainly the families. And then I started meeting some of the families.
Dr.

Speaker 1 Powell introduced me to a few. And I wanted to find one that she'd never met before, never tested, to test myself.
So same thing, like it's hard to believe. And I wanted to not to pick the place.

Speaker 1 I wanted to bring my own cues, set it up, make sure that we covered anything reflective so that we could test this and see if it bears out.

Speaker 1 And it was remarkable to be in that room and see someone reading someone else's mind over and over and over again to the point within like an hour where you're like, this is not boring, but just like it became, okay, she can do it.

Speaker 1 Cool. Like, let's try this.
Let's try this. Let's try, you know, just kept kind of pushing the envelope and this and young girl Mia could read her mom's mind.

Speaker 1 Anything we showed her mom, she could tell you.

Speaker 1 You know, and then I met more families and more families and kept seeing it over and over and over again to the point where now I'm like, well, that's self-evident.

Speaker 1 And I think the parents are there too. It's not, they're like, we don't need anyone to prove this is happening.
We need to know know why this is happening.

Speaker 31 That's their question.

Speaker 18 Yeah.

Speaker 31 How were these parents discovering it in the first place? What was their

Speaker 1 process? I think, to me, it's like the most beautiful part of the story. It's really based in love.

Speaker 1 I mean, for so many of these parents, they have children that are diagnosed with something that is often like very hope-stealing in terms of the diagnosis.

Speaker 1 And I think often there's doctors telling them your child will never be competent, won't learn beyond this certain level. They might not connect with you.
They won't ever speak.

Speaker 1 And I don't think these parents are given much hope. And to love someone without getting a lot of, you know, physical or verbal feedback around, like, I love you, thank you back, is very difficult.

Speaker 1 So it's the ultimate sacrifice these parents are making. And so many of them have been told, again, their child will never speak.

Speaker 1 And somewhere along the line, most of them, people at least that we've featured, have discovered spelling to communicate, which is a method for non-speakers to communicate by pointing to letters.

Speaker 1 And that's a gross motor skill, whereas talking is a fine motor skill. So if you can't talk, it's okay if you can point.

Speaker 1 Often these parents would see this and think, that's not my kid, because my kid is still, you know, banging their head against the wall or maybe even smearing feces, just really difficult behaviors.

Speaker 1 And these parents were thinking, there's no way it's my kid.

Speaker 1 Often, like the deepest leap of hope, not wanting to have your heart broken again, these parents would try, bring their child to learn to spell, and it's often time consuming and such sacrifice and such practice.

Speaker 1 And their child got there.

Speaker 1 And there's a point which is called getting open on the board where you're not just answering a yes or no question or filling in a blank, where you start driving the conversation yourself.

Speaker 1 And when these children became open,

Speaker 1 pretty soon thereafter, they started saying things about being able to read minds or knowing what their parent is thinking.

Speaker 1 And of course, when you first hear that, there's kind of that like, oh, wait, what, really?

Speaker 1 And what happened in most of these cases is the parents would do some tests and do their own experiments and then end up with a ton of questions, search about this on the internet.

Speaker 1 Up until now, there was nothing about it out there. And usually they would find Dr.
Powell.

Speaker 31 Did Dr. Powell ever explain why this specifically existed for non-speakers?

Speaker 1 No, but I think what a lot of parents believe, and I think teachers too, is that most of the non-speakers that we're featuring have apraxia, which is where your mind and body are not connected.

Speaker 1 So if you have apraxia and can't control your behaviors, that doesn't get you very far. Because that's a big thing I want people to take away is like, this is not about autism.

Speaker 1 I never talk about it as being about autism. It's about apraxia and not being connected to your body.
Yeah. That's the

Speaker 1 thing that's missing. And in fact, a lot of parents are like, I don't think my kid has autism.
We have this big wide tent of how we diagnose this. And people say it's autism, but no, it's apraxia.

Speaker 1 And that's the mind-body disconnect. So a lot of it is like the diagnosis could be totally wrong, too.
And that's when I realized, okay, this isn't just like a telepathy thing.

Speaker 1 This isn't about a biological heightened sense. It felt to me, and this is where I

Speaker 1 landed, is that this is a spiritual gift and it's a, and there's a bouquet of them that for some reason, the non-speaking individuals with apraxia, the mind-body disconnect, seem easier to tap into.

Speaker 1 Then during COVID, they had to self-teach their children at home. And then they were shocked at how much their kid knew, but no one ever spent the time to, because

Speaker 1 a lot of the teachers might not have thought these people were in there either. So COVID was a huge...
motivator for a lot of these changes when where parents saw my kid is in there and it can spell.

Speaker 31 Has there been any examples of any parents who weren't communicating with their non-speakers and then maybe through your work or Dr.

Speaker 31 Powell's work kind of become aware of this and then tried to experiment and experience where they didn't realize that their non-speaking child could talk to them in this way by spelling?

Speaker 1 For sure. I mean, we've had our inbox has been the most delightfully joyful thing because so many of the emails we're getting is are people being like, I did not ever think my child could spell.

Speaker 1 I didn't think they were in there. And then I heard these other stories of parents who felt the same way.
And now I'm getting my child to spell.

Speaker 1 But the best ones are, I mean, they're not the best ones. They're all the best.
But another really fun thing that we're getting are videos from parents saying, my child is spelling.

Speaker 1 I never thought in a million years they were telepathic. So then I started doing tests and we tested with four numbers.
And here's the video they could do it.

Speaker 1 And here's nine numbers and they could do it. And here's 22 numbers and they could do it.
And so those are really fun that parents are suddenly doing like telepathy tests with their kids.

Speaker 1 And then the other thing that's really beautiful is

Speaker 1 there's parents who, having listened to the telepathy tapes, I think their children realize, okay, my parent is open to this.

Speaker 1 Just like you, you're not going to go talk about something to someone if you think they're going to judge you or be scared of you or whatever.

Speaker 1 So, what we're hearing a lot on the ground from parents and teachers is that because they listened, the non-speaking student or nephew or child in their life suddenly feels safe saying, hey, I can do this too, or here's what's up, or here's all of me.

Speaker 1 Let me invite you in.

Speaker 1 And they've said that the world has just expanded in this beautiful way, knowing that that, like, it's a safe space now to be fully who you are, which includes those gifts for some non-speakers.

Speaker 31 So, up until now, what kind of responses have those questions met?

Speaker 1 I don't know if science has like fully done all the research. They haven't done any research on this really yet.

Speaker 1 I mean, that's not true. There's been telepathy research and psi research and precognition research that's been happening for a long time, which is pretty conclusive.

Speaker 1 And, however, the gifts of the non-speakers, I think this is

Speaker 1 a new frontier for science. And that's one of the ethical things that I think everyone needs needs to consider greatly: is like, how do we research this?

Speaker 1 Because what I have found, and if you think of like a Jane Goodall, right?

Speaker 1 Like, the way she did science is she'd go spend time for months, you know, with the chimps until she finally observed what their life was really like because she immersed herself in it, right?

Speaker 1 And it's like if you were going to go watch a beautiful lightning bug sinking up in nature, you wouldn't bring them into a lab. You'd go and watch and immerse.

Speaker 1 And my plea is that scientists will take off their lab coats, pick up a letterboard, learn how to do this, immerse themselves with a non-speaker, and they will see and experience and can ask the questions.

Speaker 1 Because I think the non-speakers have a lot to offer and they can talk about this themselves, what's going on.

Speaker 1 But I've been hearing a lot of chatter online about like, put them in a Faraday cage and put them in two separate rooms and do this.

Speaker 1 And it's like, I don't know if that's going to be the most beautiful, helpful, empowering way to research this.

Speaker 31 I do appreciate your insight on immersive observation.

Speaker 31 Especially, especially I like your analogy of thinking about it as if you're watching something in nature and you have to see it in its own space and its own habitat and its own environment where it naturally functions and isn't put into this space.

Speaker 31 And I've always felt and known that there's so much more that we're capable of that we don't know.

Speaker 31 How do we draw the difference and distinction between this and intuition and some of the other things that we may be more familiar with as a society. How is this so different?

Speaker 1 I don't think it is different. And I think that all of these things, which, you know, I have learned are called psi abilities, P-S-I,

Speaker 1 I think come from the same place. And in the telepathy tapes in episode six, we really look at the science and how our world has been understood.

Speaker 1 And everything is this framework of what we call materialism. This idea that what's real is what can be observed and measured.
And materialism has dictated our thinking for centuries.

Speaker 1 And most of materialism is right. I don't think it's wrong.
We shouldn't throw away our textbooks entirely.

Speaker 1 However, at the very tippy top of, you know, after you have physiology and biology and psychology and all the things that make up our material world, at the tippy top right now, we have consciousness and no one knows where it comes from and why it's there.

Speaker 1 And what I think the theory that many people before me have put forth, and then I believe it, so I put this forth in the celebrity tapes, is that consciousness isn't at the top of the pyramid of our world.

Speaker 1 It's at the bottom. It's fundamental.
It comes first. I mean, everything in this office was a thought first.
None of it was real, and then the thought came after.

Speaker 1 And so, if you think about it that way and that consciousness is fundamental, then telepathy, psy abilities, precognition, mediumship, all these things that seem like

Speaker 1 a little wobby wobby all make sense because our

Speaker 1 truest truth is non-physical.

Speaker 31 How do you define consciousness in that context?

Speaker 1 It is the foundation. Consciousness came first, and the whole physical world came after.
It's not that the physical world came first and consciousness came after.

Speaker 1 And if we just invert the triangle, keep everything else the same in the materialist world, just put the consciousness from the top to the bottom, then we can explain all of this.

Speaker 1 And if anyone was out there is like, I want to look into this more, you could look into remote viewing.

Speaker 1 That's one of the most easy to validate psi abilities, which is being able to see something at a location where you're not. And the CIA used that for years.
We know that.

Speaker 1 That's been declassified, you know.

Speaker 31 What do you mean? Tell me a bit more about that. Well, I'm less aware.

Speaker 1 This is one of the books I read in like trying to understand all of this is there's a great book by an author named Annie Jacobson. It's called Phenomena.

Speaker 1 And what it was about was the declassified papers from the CIA about their Project Grill Flame and Project Stargate programs, which was really active in the 70s and into the 80s, where they were using remote viewing because the Russians were.

Speaker 1 And what that was, is they found that some people were extremely good at, if you could give them a line of longitude and a line of latitude, they could sit at the Stanford Research Institute in California and tell you, draw a picture of what was there.

Speaker 1 No way.

Speaker 1 Yeah.

Speaker 1 And it's fascinating. And so they did a bunch of research around this and how this is possible.

Speaker 1 And they would put some of the best remote viewers under the ocean in a submarine to be like, okay, well, we know waves can't penetrate that. that deep of water.
Like, so what is this skill?

Speaker 1 Like, is it still possible underwater? Because telephone signals aren't, right? Cell phone signals aren't. Like most signals can't go through water.

Speaker 1 And these remote viewers were significantly accurate, like statistically so, that they could still find targets when underwater. And there's been so much released on that program.
Yeah.

Speaker 1 And I think the one of the best remote viewers was, I believe, a Burbank police chief. And someone at the IFCIA was in his office and saw that he had like marked on the map where submarines were.

Speaker 1 Well, that's alarming. How does this guy know where the submarines were? And he was like, I could just see him.
And he became one of the best like remote viewers in the program.

Speaker 1 And they did some of these quote-unquote telepathy

Speaker 1 tapes of these telepathy tests with another man named Yuri Geller. They would have him draw what was in a closed box.
And he was pretty accurate.

Speaker 1 And so if people want to read that book, like that's a great gateway into this that shows something is happening, something is real. And this program went on for a long time.

Speaker 1 And they say it's expired. I think it's probably still going on in the United States government.
But that was remote viewing and using psychic abilities.

Speaker 31 Are there any other programs or things you've come across like that that are used in the modern world in a less spiritual space?

Speaker 1 For sure. Russia, China, the United States have been looking into these psych abilities as very real elements.
And of course, they're trying to use it for warfare and. spying.

Speaker 1 I know that there's a lot of people who will teach remote viewing and map dousing, where you try to go figure out where something might be located on a map. And some people are really good at that.

Speaker 1 It could be like the ancient whatever

Speaker 1 aqueduct is here. And they can help you find it.
And like, these are things that have map dowsing has gone on for thousands of years, where people will know what's underground.

Speaker 5 How?

Speaker 1 I don't understand how,

Speaker 1 but it's a real thing. I did not

Speaker 1 understand how remote viewing could work. And so I went to a workshop one day because I thought, I wonder if I could learn this.

Speaker 1 And this was kind of like right in the heart of like me trying to understand everything. And I was just immersing into anything I could.

Speaker 1 And so I went to like a workshop where they try to teach you how to do this. And I was with one of my close friends.
And they said, okay, we're going to do a remote viewing experiment.

Speaker 1 We're about to pull a slide up and you all have to draw what's on the slide. And I was like, a slide? Like, that's not even like in the physical world that we can like maybe see.

Speaker 1 How is that going to work? And so all these, everyone's close, you know, trying to clear their mind.

Speaker 1 And people, after 10 minutes or whatever, I look at some of the drawings and it looks like people were drawing like these big circles and stuff.

Speaker 1 And what I was getting in my head was like draw a tree and like a little bit of water and the word green and a bird and a sun.

Speaker 1 And my drawing looks so rudimentary, like something a four-year-old would draw. And then all of a sudden they show what it was and it was a peacock.

Speaker 1 And I'm like, okay, so I had bird and green, but I don't think that counts. And then my friend turns over her paper and on her paper was a tree and a sun.
She wrote the word green. She had water.

Speaker 1 We had the same picture. I have a picture out on my phone.

Speaker 1 And that's when I'm like, okay, I don't know what's going on here if we're remote viewing or if her and I just crossed paths and there was like real telepathy. Like we sunk up.

Speaker 1 Whatever signal it was, her and I had the same drawing. And that's when I was like, this whole thing is really mysterious.

Speaker 1 And I finally understood what the parents were talking about because I was like, did we both tune into the same signal? Or were we sharing and influencing each other? What was that?

Speaker 1 But that was an astounding moment for me that made me believe in things like remote viewing.

Speaker 31 Have you and your friend ever tried doing that again?

Speaker 1 No, I should ask her. Yeah.

Speaker 28 Yeah.

Speaker 31 That would be really fascinating to sit down again.

Speaker 1 Yeah. It would really be awesome to try that again.
And for me, the biggest shock was, again, I thought, okay, we're studying telepathy. We can do these telepathy tests.

Speaker 1 We can prove it or, you know, validate it. I guess there's no proof in science, but validate it.
And that's what I thought was.

Speaker 1 But then when I was immersed with so many wonderful human beings and families, the thing that I started seeing and that they start talking about quite quickly, especially the non-speakers, is, no, this is bigger than just telepathy.

Speaker 1 So many individuals can also know languages that they've never learned. Well, how is that possible? Or tell the future and can accurately predict something that's going to happen.

Speaker 1 And sure, that could be coincidental, or maybe it's not. Or had information about something they'd never learned, be it math or science or even spiritual information.

Speaker 1 And so many others were talking about seeing beyond the grave, like knowing people and bringing messages through. And that that was totally disorienting for me because that was all new.

Speaker 1 I didn't think any of that stuff was possible. Individuals talking about rocks that had powers.
I mean, I came into that being like, wait, what?

Speaker 31 Yeah, it's one of those things, isn't it, where it's, it's so hard in our material world to give space for invisible thinking. Yeah.

Speaker 31 Because like you said, everything that we look at is so visibly measured, visibly real.

Speaker 31 That's how we function as a society. Then almost when these ideas start to seep in, it starts to become very challenging.
And certain ideas have found their place in the Western world.

Speaker 31 When you look at things like astrology, and so coming from an Eastern background, astrologers who have incredible abilities rarely exist anymore, but those that in India had these abilities, like you've seen the Western version of astrology evolve and it exists in some capacity in our world.

Speaker 31 But you find most of these ideas kind of fall by the wayside and don't really have aversion, or like a lot of astrology can be and is, get labeled as woo-woo or just, you know, made up or meant to make people feel safe.

Speaker 31 What was it that gave you so much trust when you were doing these tests yourself that gave you a sense of confidence from being someone who, in your own words, you felt, well, it's not that you came from a spiritual background or this is what you're open to.

Speaker 31 And all of a sudden, you're like, no, I believe this. Like, what did you see? What did you experience that you were like, no, no, this, this is legitimate? Yeah.

Speaker 1 And I think the most important thing for anyone walking into this world is forget about the telepathy, forget about all that stuff. Like meet the people.

Speaker 1 And when you're talking to parents in particular who are stretched thin, they have

Speaker 1 so many

Speaker 1 just daily challenges with working, you know, just helping their children, but actually battling for their children every day to get the education they need, the supports they need, the care they need.

Speaker 1 And for these parents who have so much love and so much sacrifice, and yet there's this other dimension of what the heck is going on and their sincerity of just like we know this is happening can you just help us understand why and when you start hearing that from parent after parent after parent who don't know each other it's pretty clear there's not a mass conspiracy going on and so meeting the parents loving the parents i mean they truly are the biggest most they're the love warriors on this earth right now and then meeting the non-speakers with just such honesty around what's going on there's no it's not for them this is just life here i'm going to talk about this i'm going to share this i'm going to talk about this.

Speaker 1 And that became convincing. And then, and then, so I think I walked in trusting the parents, trusting the non-speakers, believing that they were telling the truth.

Speaker 1 And then I think when you are coming from it from a place of belief and trust, it's so much more likely for these things to unfold.

Speaker 1 You know, a lot of, I think not just me, but scientists would say like love is the basis of a lot of these psy abilities.

Speaker 1 If anyone ever has had this moment where something went wrong, it's because you love that person and you felt deeply something happened to that person.

Speaker 1 We have accounts of that from all over the world in history. Or you're thinking about someone you care deeply about and the second that the phone rings and it's them.

Speaker 1 I mean, these links are, I think, based in love and they're not that rare. We've all had that phone telepathy.
And I just want to say this really quick, too, because I think that belief

Speaker 1 as a measure of like being able to experience and see some of this stuff. There is space for that in science.
We have the placebo effect.

Speaker 1 That's part and parcel of every, you know, major medical like study because it's real. Belief and believing in something helps and changes the outcomes.

Speaker 1 I think if you were to walk in with the non-speakers and think, I don't believe it's possible, there's not telepathy,

Speaker 1 I don't think you're going to see much. But I think when you're like, I trust you, I trust what you're saying is true, I think people are much more likely to be themselves and show their full self.

Speaker 1 And telepathy is part of that in this world.

Speaker 31 What had you seen when you spoke to Dr. Powell? Like, what had she seen from a scientific point of view that convinced her that this was real?

Speaker 31 What research had she found that made it feel so legitimate to her as well?

Speaker 1 You know, I was so impressed with Dr. Powell.
I mean, she's a real thoughtful scientist in this regard. And she was studying Savant syndrome at first.
And Savant syndrome is really interesting.

Speaker 1 And I mean, her big thesis is ESP should be considered a Savant skill because science as a whole legitimizes savants that you might know a language or music or math without being taught or exposed to it.

Speaker 1 And that's pretty wild. How does that happen if you haven't been taught it? And so ESP is in the same realm, right? Like you know something you shouldn't know because how?

Speaker 1 How could you know the future? How can you know someone's thoughts? So

Speaker 31 could you tell us what ESP is?

Speaker 1 Oh, ESP is an extra sensory perception. So a sense of knowing something without your five senses.
So she was studying savant skills. And what was fascinating is some of the parents who had

Speaker 1 a quote-unquote savant, which is a troubling word in and of itself for a few reasons we can talk about later. But like we're saying, actually, I don't know if they're savant.

Speaker 1 I thought they were because I thought they had every book on my bookshelf memorized, but then I'm learning, no, I think they can see through my eyes or I think they're reading my mind.

Speaker 1 And she heard that enough times that she started studying that. And lo and behold, in the studies she did, she was seeing what I saw, which was the spares out.

Speaker 1 Unfortunately, Because so many of our scientific institutions are rooted in materialism and the journals and such, it's really hard to publish papers on this, to get grants to do the research around it, to publish a book on it.

Speaker 1 And when she published a book and was on her book tour, suddenly the board said, we're taking your license away because we think you must, there must be something wrong with you.

Speaker 1 And she had a you know, petition, she had to go through psychological testing to prove that she was of sound mind.

Speaker 1 And then she begged them to look at the book and they realized, oh, this is sound science. And she's sound.
Okay, you can have your license back and you can do this.

Speaker 1 But the trauma is done because you've had to pay a lot of fees. It hurts your reputation.
It comes up on Google.

Speaker 1 And so I think for a lot of the scientists who are on the cutting edge of this too, they've been harmed because for me, I believe that at the baseline for science, you should have a freedom of inquiry.

Speaker 1 You should be able to ask a question and see where it leads. And as a society, we need to ask ourselves, well, what is going on?

Speaker 1 If you can't ask a question because people are afraid of the answer, I mean, that's troubling and it's also limiting.

Speaker 1 Because as humans, this is really exciting, that there is a very real non-physical world.

Speaker 1 And I think that's what everyone actually cares about at the end of the day. Like, don't we care? If that's that, that has implications for where we're going and why we're here.
Yeah. Yeah.
So Dr.

Speaker 1 Powell, she saw the truth of it, but she also ran hard into

Speaker 1 the deeply skeptical materialist society and science world.

Speaker 31 What kept her going?

Speaker 1 I mean, I think the same thing. I mean, she laid low for a while after that, you know, and then she actually retired right before the telepathy tapes came out.

Speaker 1 She's like, I don't want to be fined again. I don't want to deal with all this.
And she was ready, but she was like, this is not worth it.

Speaker 1 So I think what kept her going is kind of the same thing that, you know, when I hit upload on that first episode i was like i might destroy my entire reputation as a documentarian as a human being i don't know what people are going to think but like this is true and it's this truth is worth it and i think dr powell underwent that when you see it you can't unsee it when you're in the room and you experience it you can't unexperience it and when you meet these families so full of love and truth and earnestness that are just like someone tell us why no one is listening you kind of want to carry the the burden for them you shoulder it for them because you're like you aren't crazy.

Speaker 1 You're telling the truth. Like someone does need to listen.
And I think Dr. Powell felt that urgency of like, I will carry your torch.

Speaker 1 And then I met all of them and I was like, I will also carry your torch. And now I think there's a lot of listeners carrying the torch, which is beautiful.

Speaker 31 Definitely. There are so many people that I've been speaking to about it with since I've been listening.
And the conversations that it's starting are actually the most exciting part for me.

Speaker 31 I think the curiosity that it's sparking in people. I was trying to think about actually when else in society, when have we had that kind of resistance to something?

Speaker 31 Like, I don't know if you've looked back, and I'm sure with your research mind, like, have you looked back at times in society where we would have been like, no, going to the moon is ridiculous, it's never going to happen,

Speaker 31 and then we do it right because that, in one sense, is outside of our visible world to some degree, in terms of before you could see it.

Speaker 31 Well, now, when we talk about, you know, building life on another planet, it's become normalized because Elon Musk or whoever will talk about these things publicly so often.

Speaker 31 Have you looked at any other times where things are?

Speaker 5 Oh, for sure.

Speaker 30 This is is Matt Rogers from Los Culturistas with Matt Rogers and Bowen Yang.

Speaker 34 This is Bowen Yang from Los Culturistas with Matt Rogers and Bowen Yang.

Speaker 37 Hey, Bowen, it's gift season.

Speaker 34 Oh, stressing me out.

Speaker 38 Why are all the people I love so hard to shop for?

Speaker 39 Like me? Exactly.

Speaker 37 Honey, I'm easy.

Speaker 33 But you're right. Holiday gifting is stressful.

Speaker 34 And all the gift guides out there are boring and uninspired. Wait, what about the guide we made? In partnership with Marshalls, where premium gifts mean incredible value?

Speaker 27 It's giving gifts!

Speaker 41 A series of guides filled with premium gifts at great value for everyone on your list.

Speaker 34 Yeah, because if I see one more for the dad who likes golf list, I'm out.

Speaker 33 Right? How about something for the people who actually surprise you?

Speaker 34 With categories like best gifts for the mom whose idea of a sensible walking shoe is a stiletto, ps, she wants a pair of stilettos.

Speaker 42 Or best gifts for me that were so thoughtful I really shouldn't have.

Speaker 34 Dying to see what those are.

Speaker 43 And you won't believe their prices.

Speaker 34 Just wait till you see what else is in there. It's basically a one-stop shop for everyone you know.

Speaker 36 I started bookmarking half the list for myself, honestly.

Speaker 34 This is the guy for the 2025 holiday gifting season.

Speaker 44 Check out the guide on marshalls.com.

Speaker 27 It's giving gifts.

Speaker 34 Gift the good stuff at Marshalls.

Speaker 45 A GLP one helped you lose weight, but why accept the unwanted facial changes that came with it? Hollowing, sagging skin, wrinkles, when you can do something about it.

Speaker 29 Learn more at faceafterweightloss.com. That's faceafterweightloss.com.

Speaker 1 You know, and there's that quote, all truth goes through three stages. First, it's ridiculed, then it's violently opposed, and then it's accepted as self-evident.

Speaker 1 And I feel like that's one of these moments. And, you know, there's when Mendel first said that genes cause disease.
I mean, that was like a big moment where people were laughing at that.

Speaker 1 That seemed silly. Like little things would go into you and make you sick.
And now it's self-evident, you know? It's a flat earth. Like people believed the earth was flat for a really long time.

Speaker 1 And then it wasn't, but people like clung to that. I mean, there's still so few people.

Speaker 1 But I think about the materialist science of now, and I'm like, I wonder if in 100 years they're going to clinging to materialism. It's, they're going to look like the flat earthers, you know.

Speaker 1 But even when the Wright brothers first launched their plane, people didn't believe it. They didn't believe it unless they saw it.

Speaker 1 They had to go on a tour and fly their little plane all over for people to believe it.

Speaker 1 So it's not, this, I think this happens with any big leap, whether it's in science and spirituality or whatever it is. And

Speaker 1 this is just, this is the blowback, the anger, the confusion, the trying to find like, you know, the character assassination is going to come from anyone carrying the thing.

Speaker 1 That's happened throughout history. That's just part and parcel when you bring in big news, I think.

Speaker 31 Yeah, yeah, for sure, for sure. And I almost think that it's at like a perfect synchronicity with all of our developments in AI.

Speaker 31 Like, you know, we're at this precipice where it's like AI is the new frontier at a very basic level. Everyone's now using Chat GPT.
And then we're looking at what singularity could look like.

Speaker 31 And we're looking at the tech horizon of all of this advancement. And it only makes sense to me that at the same time, we need this other side.
Yes.

Speaker 31 That we're also seeing these advancements in our spiritual understanding and our spiritual exploration. And I wanted to ask you, like, so far with Dr.

Speaker 31 Powell's work and what you've seen, what has been conclusively defined? Or when people are asking the question, why is this happening? What do we know, if anything, right now of why it's happening?

Speaker 1 I don't think we know yet.

Speaker 1 And I think it's because there's been such a lack of funding. I mean, that was one of the hopes with Sloppy Tapes was to get Dr.
Powell some funding. And she's gotten funding now, which is great.

Speaker 1 And, you know, I know she wants to look at some MRI scans and some QEG scans. And that's important because she's looking at from the brain stuff, which is what a neuroscientist should be doing.

Speaker 1 And I'm interested in doing like really good telepathy tests that are visual for film.

Speaker 1 And so many scientists have been reaching out, which has been beautiful since this has come forward, being like, I want to work on a experiment or a research.

Speaker 1 And so I'm trying to get on board with our team, a non-speaking science advisor to kind of help and then do a roundtable with a bunch of the scientists who all have big ideas, bring some of the non-speakers in and have a conversation about like, what can we test?

Speaker 1 What should we test? What would be helpful? What are the limitations? And kind of go from there.

Speaker 31 Why do you think it's so important? What do you think? I'm intrigued to know what you think it would unlock for us. by discovering the answer behind this.
What do you see?

Speaker 1 Well, again, I think it's more than just telepathy. Yes, agreed.

Speaker 1 And there's a teacher who has been at this longer than Dr. Powell or me in Wisconsin who will constantly say, I think there's a sharing of consciousness.
I think there's a linking.

Speaker 1 And that's a curious question because if that's the case, that means that consciousness is coming from somewhere else and that we like can beam into it. I mean, I don't know.

Speaker 1 Like, if you think of our body as a television set, right? That will animate and all this stuff, but that's it's like we don't carry the signal. The signal is coming from somewhere else.

Speaker 1 That's one view of consciousness. Like that is one possibility.

Speaker 1 And I think the non-speaking telepathy pairing that happens with a teacher or a parent, if we could test through a QEG and figure out, is the message coming in, like, is the brain lighting up at the same time in the same place?

Speaker 1 We might be able to learn something. I'm not a scientist, so I want other people to carry the torch and figure out the experiments.

Speaker 1 And I hope to create for the film, like, we're going to make some spaces where non-speakers and researchers and scientists can talk about it.

Speaker 1 And then I hope the science just goes forth in a comfortable way for everyone. My biggest concern, of course, is the exploitation of non-speaking individuals and their families.

Speaker 1 Like, it has to be in a way that feels really safe and good for them. And some families want answers.
Some are just like, we know this is happening. This is great.
This has changed our lives.

Speaker 1 Everyone has to volunteer and do what's comfortable for them. But I just, my goal was to get this out there.
And so that people would listen to the parents and hopefully believe them.

Speaker 31 Yeah, when you started doing the tests, I remember you saying that you were seeing like a 95% success rate, which is extremely high.

Speaker 1 what were you seeing in the five percent that was inaccurate or incomplete yeah and i'm smiling when you said that because like i said 95 because it just felt like the more sciencey thing to say like it was actually pretty much like 100 but like when i talk about the five percent it's because they're spelling to communicate so sometimes if like they were if pony was the thing that was on the flashcard maybe it they spelled like P P, it hit twice O-N-Y or something like that, where it's like, can we count it?

Speaker 1 We won't count it because there was a P hit twice, so we would discount it. Again, I'm not a scientist, but in like my human mind, I was like, that counted.

Speaker 1 So there is that element where it's like, they wrote the thing. It would be, it would be an a tactical error like that.
Yeah, right.

Speaker 31 Oh, wow. So it was literally things like spelling, basically.

Speaker 1 It was like, yeah.

Speaker 31 Yeah, or a double tap, et cetera.

Speaker 1 A double tap. Yeah.

Speaker 1 Yeah, it would be a double tap. I remember when we were doing one telepathy experiment, there was a production assistant that was like walking around with Doritos.

Speaker 1 And then every time they entered the room with the Doritos, it's like the test would get disrupted. Like most of the word would be spelled like bicycle.

Speaker 1 And then the E would be left off because it'd be like, Doritos are here, you know?

Speaker 1 And so stuff like that, we didn't count it because all of bicycle didn't. But again, like the science part was like, okay, we can't count bicycle because the whole world wasn't spelled.

Speaker 1 But like the human being in me was like, she just wrote bicycles.

Speaker 1 And then Doritos came in the room.

Speaker 31 And what about some of them that could see colors and letters around numbers?

Speaker 31 Where was that coming from?

Speaker 1 Yeah, I mean, so there's something called synesthesia. Yes.
And that is synesthesia, right? You see colors,

Speaker 1 different senses get tied to different things. With non-speaking individuals, it's really beautiful and interesting.

Speaker 1 And again, like broadbush here, but some of the people I was talking with, like one girl says that she sees the colors around each letter.

Speaker 1 So she doesn't have to see the letterboard because she's pointing to a color. So that's pretty cool.

Speaker 1 A lot of non-speaking individuals say they see auras, not just around people, but around plants and cut flowers. And they'll see the aura drifting off as the cut flowers dying around rocks.

Speaker 1 And again, it wouldn't be just one individual. It'd be many saying these things.
So at a certain point, you're like, okay, things have auras and there's colors.

Speaker 1 And that tells you how, if someone's a good or bad or angry or whatever, you know, I mean, it was just beautiful, the amount of information that was so articulate and so profound that was being shared across the board.

Speaker 31 You've dedicated three and a half years to this now, right? Do you feel like it

Speaker 31 feels like your purpose, it's become something that's so I mean, to dedicate three and a half years is a long, long, long, long time.

Speaker 31 And the telepathy tapes you launched fairly recently, like just around the holidays or whatever, and to see the incredible success they've had, but it's been so much study and time.

Speaker 31 I want to know your emotions and feelings throughout this three and a half years and then whether it feels like your purpose now.

Speaker 1 Yeah, I mean, no, I think everything in my life has led to this. I think everything has.
And it is fully my purpose for being here. And I'm so humbled.
Like, what a wonderful, wonderful purpose.

Speaker 1 And I don't know if purpose is given to us from somewhere else or if it creates your purpose, but like my favorite book is Victor Frankl's Man's Search for Meaning.

Speaker 1 And one of the beautiful takeaways in that book, right, is like the meaning of life is whatever gives your life meaning and nothing ever to come across my path outside of the people I love, like my, you know, spouse and kids.

Speaker 1 But beyond that, like nothing has given my life more meaninglessness.

Speaker 1 To me, it's answering and picking through the most complex, important questions. So like, what a humbling, beautiful gift to just have fallen into this beautiful world.

Speaker 31 What meaning has it spoken to for you? So what questions has it answered for you? Or what questions has it made you ask that you find it so meaningful for us to know?

Speaker 1 You know, for me, it was really appealing of the onion. And first it was seeing the telepathy over and over and over again and being like, okay, I don't need to ask that question.

Speaker 1 That's fully happening. And then I almost feel like the parents would let me in on things as they thought I was ready.

Speaker 1 You know, so even hearing and understanding that Houston, one of the individuals into the telepathy tapes, understands that, feels rocks so deeply.

Speaker 1 And that was something that I always just shrugged off. Okay, so if telepathy is real and rocks truly give off,

Speaker 1 you know, energy and frequency, what else have I dismissed that's real?

Speaker 1 So I started finding that things that I just shoved away as like, that's impossible, this is fake, or these are charlatans or frauds.

Speaker 1 You know, I started coming to terms with everything I'd ever just ignored or dismissed in life and reevaluating it. So telepathy, like, yes, okay.

Speaker 1 Rocks, crystals, now I'm like, okay, I have crystal things on my wrist. Like, it's like, yes, those have a powerful thing.
And then non-speakers talking about the other side.

Speaker 1 I mean, that was something that came up a lot. In fact, that often is the first thing before telepathy is, this person's here.
Auntie has this message for you.

Speaker 1 You know, this person is telling me not that you tell whoever in India not to buy this land because that land has a bad well on it.

Speaker 1 And I mean, just the amount of messages parents were telling me that they were receiving from the other side through their child was wild.

Speaker 31 That was relevant to the parents' life.

Speaker 1 That was so relevant that would bear out that there's no way their child would know. So then it started making me think, okay, we don't go away.
Like

Speaker 1 we're here.

Speaker 1 Like it's consciousness survives.

Speaker 1 I think all of it was a cognitive dissidence of now I fully believe that psy abilities are real, that consciousness survives death, that we are all intimately connected, that love is the baseline for everything.

Speaker 1 And I think I see the non-speakers as my teacher, not the other way around. I mean, they are all of our teachers if people just take the time to listen and meet them where they're at.

Speaker 1 And I think what they would say is love is the most important thing. We have it all wrong.
We're all connected. It is bigger than any of us.
And that these spiritual gifts are in us all.

Speaker 31 Yeah.

Speaker 31 I mean, the Eastern traditions describe consciousness to have three qualities: sat, chit, and ananda, which mean full of knowledge, which makes sense to what you're saying now, eternal, endless, and full of bliss, love.

Speaker 31 And so when you're saying that even through your discovery that potentially consciousness,

Speaker 31 the idea that there's greater consciousness where there's knowledge, your messages being inferred, that comes from that full of knowledge, the idea that you're saying consciousness doesn't die.

Speaker 31 You used a word there, I forgot it, but this idea that it's continuous and that continues to exist is the eternal part. And then like you said, it's founded on love, is the full of bliss.

Speaker 31 And so those qualities actually seem to match very coherently with the Eastern spiritual traditions of understanding what consciousness actually is. Yeah.

Speaker 31 I've always been excited about science catching up with spirituality.

Speaker 31 And so I love when science can prove the value in spirituality and beliefs or practices that have happened for hundreds or thousands of years.

Speaker 31 And I've seen it happen with mindfulness and meditation where

Speaker 31 these practices have been around for thousands of years. And today, mindfulness and meditation are no longer woo-woo and made up.

Speaker 1 When meditation was first being studied, it was kind of ridiculed as being woo-woo.

Speaker 31 Even when I first started practicing it, like I first started practicing meditation around 2007.

Speaker 31 And if you talked about meditation to someone in 2007, they didn't really think it was that valuable or they thought it was just made up.

Speaker 31 Or if you told someone that breath work was a way of calming yourself down or, you know, reducing negative thoughts or anxiety, people would have laughed at you.

Speaker 31 And so I've seen it happen with a few things. And I've always been excited by when science has been able to have the language, the tools, the vocabulary to talk about these ideas.

Speaker 31 I was just back at the monastery that I used to live at in India this January.

Speaker 31 And I had some of my most powerful meditation experiences nearly 20 years after I first started meditating.

Speaker 31 And it's hard to explain, like it's hard to put into words. And, you know, you can often feel, and I'm sure,

Speaker 31 you know, the non-verbal children, they probably feel as well, like how little they can even, you know, through the written word, actually explain what they're experiencing or what they're going through.

Speaker 31 And we can all identify with emotions and feelings like that, even if we don't believe, know, trust what's going on.

Speaker 31 I think we've all had experiences where like, I have no idea how to explain this or I have no idea how to put this into words.

Speaker 31 I've always wanted that marriage between science and spirituality where science will actually look to spirituality for what to look into.

Speaker 31 Me and Andrew Huberman, who's been on the show a few times, will always talk about a lot of the practices he suggests and recommends like starting off your day looking at sunlight, which kicks off our circadian rhythm and keeps everything in harmony and balance.

Speaker 31 Surya Namashkar, which translated as sun salutations, is an ancient practice of looking at the sun when you wake up first thing in the morning and how that was the way to get your body invigorated.

Speaker 31 And so you see these similarities in these ancient practices that people have done for thousands of years. They may not have said, oh, it's about the circadian rhythm.
And, you know,

Speaker 31 they didn't talk about it like that. But they were these beautiful practices in every tradition that existed because of their value to the human body, the human mind, and the human spirit.

Speaker 1 It's beautiful. And it's all correct.
I think you're right. And I think science is catching up to some of this stuff because when you look back on things like telepathy,

Speaker 1 if you go to most native, you know, groups of people that are still around and thriving, I think they would say, yeah, duh.

Speaker 1 The sense of being stared at is real. Like often like remote viewing to know where the hunt is is real.

Speaker 1 These are things that were part and parcel of survival for individuals. And

Speaker 1 we feel removed from it, but it doesn't mean that it

Speaker 1 hasn't always been there.

Speaker 31 Yeah, exactly. And

Speaker 31 while there are naturally, as always,

Speaker 31 people who've exploited or lied or pretended or charlatan, whatever in these traditions, naturally, as there are in everywhere, science included and everywhere else, it's almost like

Speaker 31 those people exist because the real thing exists.

Speaker 31 Because there's someone who can do it for real and then someone's trying to do something with it. Exactly.
But that's usually how it works.

Speaker 31 You only get, this is a terrible example, but that's where my mind's going. You only get fake Gucci handbags because there's real ones.

Speaker 31 And that's the idea with research, right? You only get fake something when the real thing has been existed or experienced.

Speaker 31 And then you make the fake version because you don't know how the real one exists.

Speaker 1 Right. Absolutely.
And I think you take something that probably has the most amount of quote-unquote charlatans and the most amount of skepticism, like mediums, right?

Speaker 1 However, like the Winbridge Institute, Forever Family Foundation, there are groups out there that will like double, triple blind test individuals to be like, these are the people we've tested, we've tested, we've tested, we've, they don't even know who's the sitter versus blank, blank, blank.

Speaker 1 And they come up with a list. You know, like 15% of the people they tested were the the real deal according to these tests.
So I think that's what's a good reminder for people too.

Speaker 1 If you look into a lot of this stuff, some of the people, there are organizations and institutions out there looking at the science, trying to vet the best from the best. And you can do it.

Speaker 1 Like if you spend the time to do the research, you can figure out if it's real and who's the real deal.

Speaker 31 Why is our resistance so deep? Like, why are we so

Speaker 31 stuck in our ways when it comes to these ideas? And the same is probably true for scientific and technological advancement too.

Speaker 31 I think, you know, I recently spoke to Bill Gates and he was talking about the idea that computers would exist in every home was just bizarre. Like people, people were like, that's ridiculous.

Speaker 31 Like no one's going to have a personal computer in their home. What's the need?

Speaker 31 That was the opinion that people had. So I don't think it's, I actually don't think it's just spirituality.
I think

Speaker 31 any form of innovation

Speaker 31 meets that kind of resistance.

Speaker 31 Where does that come from? Why is it that we're so resistant?

Speaker 1 What have you seen from human behavior and people you've come across for sure people resistant to change right we like our status quo it feels safe we like feeling safe but i think when it comes to sci abilities usually it's so vulnerable right to think that someone could know your mind or connect with the other side or tell your future i mean to be had when it comes to something so personal so vulnerable is like the worst thing ever it's like telling a secret and have someone stabbing you in the back it's just to lay bare your soul and trust that someone's actually being a good steward of like your deepest secrets or connections and then and lying about it and profiting off it.

Speaker 1 I mean, there's like nothing grosser. Profiting off of vulnerability and trust is just the worst.
And so I think that's why people are really skeptical.

Speaker 1 They want to make sure that this stuff, which is good, like

Speaker 1 people shouldn't be profiting off of people's vulnerability. But I think these skills are real.
And I think most of them probably can do it.

Speaker 31 Have you felt that spending more time with the children, the families, and everything, are these abilities that those of us that are mere mortals and normal can develop and build and grow?

Speaker 31 Or are they things that are reserved for specifically the non-verbal speakers?

Speaker 1 No, I think that everyone probably has these in us to a certain degree, just like some people are excellent at basketball, and some people can barely shoot a basket.

Speaker 1 So, I think that it depends on the individual. Like, telepathy seems so remarkably hard.
How do you even read someone's thoughts?

Speaker 1 But I will say the thing that it was the hardest episode for me to put into the world because it felt so unbelievable, but I knew it to be true because I witnessed it was that there was a huge amount of teachers, like a lot of teachers who were saying that after working with, especially usually one student that they were really close to, they were able to start hearing them back.

Speaker 1 So the telepathy started going two ways. And when I first heard that, I was shocked.

Speaker 1 And I was shocked that it wasn't a parent's, I mean, it has, some parents have said this has happened to them, but a lot of teachers were like, I will hear their voice in my head.

Speaker 1 I can hear their full sentences. I can hear what they're thinking and what they're about to spell.
And it goes the same way.

Speaker 1 And so some of these teachers have told me it's so powerful now that we can sit next to each other and have a nonverbal educational period.

Speaker 1 And I'll ask questions and they'll write or they'll ask questions and then I hear it back and there's no ease, they don't even have to spell. And when I first heard this, I thought, what?

Speaker 41 Like, can that be?

Speaker 1 And then I heard it again and then again and again from people who don't know each other.

Speaker 1 And then I heard a woman who was a teacher on on a podcast reporting this, and she thought she was the only person this had ever happened to in the world.

Speaker 1 And I remember reaching out and like, no, no, no, no, no, you're not alone. Like, I know it seems like a miracle, but this is not, you know, how has that happened?

Speaker 1 And I don't know, but I wonder, can certain people help us turn it on or like rip off the block in our brain?

Speaker 1 And I don't know if the non-speaking individuals these teachers were working with help them get there, or if you just clear your mind and you're in the space with someone in such a beautiful, special way that we can all do it.

Speaker 31 Yeah. I mean,

Speaker 31 I often wonder also whether science will ever be able to measure a lot of these experiences and phenomena in a way that makes sense to everyone.

Speaker 31 I often wondered that whether some of these things are just the way they are. And

Speaker 31 like you said, because our scientific tools have been built to measure that which is material and seen,

Speaker 31 how can we measure something with a tool that's meant to measure something that's seen, that's unseen anyway.

Speaker 1 The most beautiful comment I heard from a non-speaking individual about that was they were like, well, why are you all trying to measure telepathy with your instruments? Was the exact wording.

Speaker 1 And I was like, well, to prove it. And they were like, well, why aren't you trying to prove love in a lab? That is the most special and strongest power.

Speaker 1 It will cause people to jump into a choppy ocean or to pick up the car with such adrenaline if their child is trapped. Like, love is the greatest superpower.
That's the biggest superpower.

Speaker 1 Why aren't you trying to measure that in a lab? And I was like, I guess I don't know why. I don't know why we're not measuring love.
Has love been measured?

Speaker 1 But that was the equivalent in their mind of like us trying to measure telepathy.

Speaker 1 This person was like, This is just part and parcel of this, like, love, connection, communication, almost survival, right?

Speaker 1 If you can't speak, can't communicate like beyond spelling, it can be a lifeline.

Speaker 1 Yeah, and I just thought that was so beautiful because there are certain things that you just accept, and telepathy might be some hard for some people to accept, but if you're living it and breathing it as part of your bouquet of what you need to get around in the world, it might seem silly to measure.

Speaker 45 Noticed unwanted facial volume loss after GLP-1 weight loss? The weight came off, but volume loss and dull, sagging skin are making you look older.

Speaker 45 Now you can reclaim your youthful looking appearance.

Speaker 31 What have you found in your research looking at animals and telepathy?

Speaker 1 Yeah, that is a beautiful element to this, I think. And to me, it really

Speaker 1 helped me believe everything more. I think that there are mental fields around certain animals.
We see this in schools of fish. How are they turning at the exact same time, right?

Speaker 1 And certain like murmurs of birds who are basically have the same mind.

Speaker 1 And there is this idea of like, are they all kind of connected to a greater mental field of consciousness that is helping control their movements?

Speaker 1 Rupert Sheldrake, a biologist from Cambridge, talks a lot about this. And he's written books and done incredible research on animals, pets, knowing when their owners are coming home.

Speaker 1 And they'll put cameras around and page someone at the office. So it's always they're coming home at a different time in a different car from a different place.

Speaker 1 And they have cameras and see that the dog will go stand by the door, and in some cases, cats.

Speaker 1 And if there's a flat tire, something happens, or this person gets called back into the office, the dog will go back and sit down.

Speaker 1 And then the second their owner's heading home again, they come back up. So there seems to be this telepathic link there.

Speaker 1 And one of my favorite stories that we share in the telepathy tapes has to do with elephants. And there was a conservationist who was trying to get

Speaker 1 some rowdy elephants into an animal preserve. And after a good amount of time, this man's name was Lawrence Anthony.

Speaker 1 He really worked to get the elephants' trust.

Speaker 1 He made their safe space. It was a huge amount of land.
And he hadn't been, I think, in touch or seeing these elephants much in the last few years of his life. And then one day he died.

Speaker 1 Well, the elephants all kind of gathered and walked to his house from where they were, and they all kind of show up right around the same time, and they stayed for a few days mourning.

Speaker 1 And it was remarkable for his widow because the question is, how did these elephants know to go and do their mourning ritual? Wow. How? And the story doesn't end there.

Speaker 1 Every year on the anniversary of his death, and this went on for a few years, the elephants would leave what they were doing and go to his house and pay their respects.

Speaker 31 Only on that day.

Speaker 1 On that day. It took them a while to get there.
They had to walk a a few days to get there. But yes, they knew exactly when he died the first time.

Speaker 1 And then they would pay their respects thereafter for a few years on the day of his death.

Speaker 1 And so to me, it's like if you have a hard time grasping telepathy in humans, look at the animals because we're pretty closely related, you know?

Speaker 1 And there's just some beautiful treasures of stories of this telepathic link expressing itself in nature.

Speaker 31 One thing that really stood out to me was,

Speaker 31 I think you said that the American Speech Language Hearing Association says that spelling is not a valid form of communication and they call it a pseudoscience.

Speaker 31 And I was like, so that's interesting as well.

Speaker 31 Why is it considered that way?

Speaker 1 There is a history here for sure.

Speaker 1 And I think the first thing that kind of made the stigma around spelling really take hold was with facilitated communication, where facilitated communication was the first, oh my gosh, individuals are spelling that people thought were locked inside and could never spell.

Speaker 1 And that required like touch. And the use of touch became problematic, I think, especially with some people who weren't trained because

Speaker 1 some awful court cases erupted from consent that wasn't given,

Speaker 1 horrible things that happened through this form of spelling. So then spelling evolved into rapid prompting method and spelling to communicate, and now the spellers method where no touch at all.

Speaker 1 I mean, you cannot touch is like a tenant of that. And when you sit in the room with a speller, it's really remarkable to watch, you know, because they're not being touched.
They're spelling.

Speaker 1 It's clear they're pointing directly to where they want to go. It's not like a struggle.
The parent is certainly not going like this. You know, often it's completely like rooted.

Speaker 1 So it's really difficult that that stigma exists because these individuals are having to prove constantly, I'm in here, my words are mine. I authored them.
And that's really hard.

Speaker 1 But I will say that this is not a new thing. Sign language took over 100 years to become accepted.

Speaker 1 Even in the 60s.

Speaker 31 Yeah, walk me through that. I didn't know that.
I learned that through listening. Like 150 years sign language took to be accepted.

Speaker 31 What were the steps? Do you know that?

Speaker 1 I mean, I think people were saying it wasn't a real language. There's no grammatical structure.
The rallying cry was that anyone who is deaf should learn to read lips and try to speak.

Speaker 1 Basically fit into our world. We are not going to allow this language to take place.
Same thing happened with Braille.

Speaker 1 Louis Braille, the inventor of Braille, kind of modified, you know, this language where you could use dots to communicate. And it was considered, it was outlawed.

Speaker 1 They weren't allowed to use it in school where he was going to school.

Speaker 1 When they finally did a big test to prove that, like, one person who was blind was gonna spell something and another person was gonna read it because the kids were using it like quietly, even though it was like outlawed in the school.

Speaker 1 And when they did that big test with viewers and people to watch, the first big claim was they're cheating. They practiced in advance to pretend what they were gonna write.

Speaker 1 It seemed outlandish that you could read dots with your finger and spell by poking holes into something. And so Braille went through the same dilemma.

Speaker 1 And so I think like this control of how we use language, who's allowed to use it, and if it's valid is not new.

Speaker 1 But it's really unfortunate because

Speaker 1 that is a human right to communicate, to say what you want for dinner. I mean, the most basic things.

Speaker 1 And if anyone out there is critiquing this without seeing a speller in action, I just think it's like a crime because you are trying to steal a voice from another living. human being.

Speaker 1 It's really mean. Yeah.

Speaker 31 I mean, what do the skeptics think is going on in those homes?

Speaker 1 There's a lot around the tests around spelling, right, to prove its like efficacy have really changed throughout the years. So at first it's like, okay, no touch.
Well, okay, there's no touch.

Speaker 1 Now sit further apart. Okay, sit further apart.
That's working. Then it's like the parent shouldn't look at the board.
Okay, well, we won't look at the board.

Speaker 1 Then it's like, then can the parent leave the room?

Speaker 1 Well, there's something fascinating, which is why I think it's really important that this whole telepathy bit is getting out there, because I think a lot of people who work with spellers, and there are some spellers who are absolutely independent, like they're rocking rocking and rolling, they're off to the races, and it's a journey, and it's a evolution.

Speaker 1 But there's certainly many spellers I've talked to who say, like, I need a person nearby, a trusted communication partner. And I don't know if it's the physiology that's grounding them.

Speaker 1 I don't know if it is that

Speaker 1 it's helpful to use their eyes. I have no idea what it is.
But there's this beautiful kind of meshing that happens, especially in the earlier parts of the journey, that are a bit inexplicable.

Speaker 1 And if you try to test it, it's going to be like, well, how do you explain that? And I don't know, but it takes two people to do sign language. You know, you can't do it alone.

Speaker 1 And so if this partner, and it doesn't always have to be, often people have many partners, right? There might be some communication partners at school and at work and with a parent.

Speaker 1 But if that partner is needed to be somewhere in the space to ground you, why does it matter? I mean, why does it actually matter?

Speaker 1 If they're typing on their own with their finger, new thoughts, self-diagnosing, talking about things other people don't know about.

Speaker 1 I mean, it's clear they're in there and they're communicating their thoughts. Why it is that someone might need to be in the room to help them do it, that's a science question that I can't answer.

Speaker 1 I think it has to do with physiology, I think it has to do with energy, it might have to do with like using someone else's like frequency to help you just stabilize.

Speaker 27 I have no idea, or integrate with your body.

Speaker 1 I don't know what it is, I don't think anyone knows, but people are asking their own questions because they're trying to test, test, test, test this and not looking at like, well, why is that link needed to make spelling work?

Speaker 1 But certainly, the individuals are typing their own thoughts, often self-diagnosing their own care,

Speaker 1 spelling things that the spelling partner might not know about. It's fascinating.

Speaker 31 What's been your,

Speaker 31 if you had to pick a couple of favorite stories or experiences that have really stayed with your relationships you've built with some of the parents and families and English-speaking individuals that stand out to you that you shared on telepathy tapes?

Speaker 1 Every day is a bit of a, it's a beautiful thing. And I think about even now that we have a film team working on this, that they are starting to send their stories.

Speaker 1 Like my producer just wrote the other day and she's like, I just met this mom. And then her daughter walked in the room and knew my name and where I lived and what my child's name was.

Speaker 1 And like, why I hadn't said any of that. And how did she know that? And I was like, exactly.
It's welcome, you know, welcome to the party. And it's, uh, it's, it's fun.

Speaker 1 And like, one of my favorite memories was once there was a mom that was trying to get a hold of me. And I was busy on like phone calls, and I wasn't able to answer.

Speaker 1 And I was a little concerned, like, maybe it's an emergency. Fast forward, it's like lunch.
I walk out of my home office into my kitchen, and I'm making lunch, and the phone rings.

Speaker 1 And I was like, Oh, your timing is perfect. And she's like, I know, I know.

Speaker 1 I just, I just was told you walked out to get lunch and stuff like that, where it's like, oh my goodness, like, are they remote viewing me sometimes, you know, which is fine.

Speaker 1 Um, so there's just, it's, it's like bits of magic every day.

Speaker 31 Yeah, I'm not claiming to have any telepathic abilities, but I have this habit of whenever I think of someone, I always message them, even if I don't need anything or want anything.

Speaker 31 And 99% of the time when I think of someone, I don't want anything or need something. So I'll just message them and say, hey, I'm thinking of you and, you know, sending love.
I'm here for you.

Speaker 31 And 99% of the time, someone will message me back and say, I was just thinking about you. Yeah.
Or I really need to try now, whatever it may be.

Speaker 31 Now, whatever that is, I always love the magic of being able to send that message, whether it is met with a positive response or not.

Speaker 31 And it's just a beautiful thing to try. And I

Speaker 31 I just love that your work is making us more curious and opening us up to these ideas because that to me is the part of us that's missing when it comes to spiritual innovation.

Speaker 1 You know, Mark Twain talked about, he called it mental telegraphy.

Speaker 1 And this was his observation that often you would write a letter to someone you hadn't thought about in five, seven years, or, you know, and then the day that you postmarked it, you'd receive a letter seven days later, whatever it was, postmarked the same day from that person on the other side of the globe.

Speaker 1 So it's like you both had like the physical physical mail proof of when you sent a letter. And Mark Twain marveled in that, as one should.
And Upton Sinclair, who wrote The Jungle, I mean,

Speaker 1 you know, beautiful writer.

Speaker 1 And one of his books that he wrote after he had like gone through his life was called Mental Radio, where him and his wife did a bunch of telepathy tests together and they documented how accurate they were.

Speaker 1 And I love the opening to that book by Upton Sinclair because he's like, this would be the type of thing that should be dismissed or you should, you know, is held with such high skepticism.

Speaker 1 But what he said is, after I've experienced it, I know this to be true. And I loved his words.
He wasn't like, I think this is true. It was, I know this is true.

Speaker 1 So

Speaker 1 this has all been around.

Speaker 28 Yeah.

Speaker 31 What about, I was, I was going to ask you about the connection between dreams and telepathy. Has there been any connection there? Have you come across anything between those two?

Speaker 1 Well, I mean, I think for people who are deeply interested in that, we have an episode on that, which is episode eight of the telepathy tapes, which I do encourage people to listen to in order. But

Speaker 1 there was one mom in England, and I wanted to, we have a spelling episode all about spelling, and that's episode eight where we go into the issues around spelling.

Speaker 1 But I thought one of the best non-speakers to highlight in that episode would be someone who never learned to spell.

Speaker 1 And him and his mom have a telepathic link together, but it's formed in their dreams where he brings her into a lucid dreaming state. The first time it ever happened, I love this story.

Speaker 1 He was younger. I think he was maybe like 11 or so.
Came to her in a dream and

Speaker 1 she thought she was dreaming.

Speaker 1 And then he gave her an ace of spades and did this whole thing like look through the ace of spades and she like woke up into a lucid dream and then he started talking and telling her all this stuff and remember this in the morning and they're going to tell you I need you know antibiotics but I need probiotics and blah blah blah blah so she woke up in the morning and thought oh I just had a dream and he was talking and didn't think anything of it and then he went and saw her the next morning grabbed a ace of spades from a deck in another room and like showed it did what he did in the dream and that's when she realized oh my goodness he came to my in my dream and was talking there and that's how they have deep conversations and they actually start writing music together that way.

Speaker 1 She didn't know he was a musician until he was starting music therapy late in his life. I mean, in his 20s.

Speaker 1 Once she discovered that, he started coming to her in dreams and being like, this is a melody or these are the lyrics. You need to write this down.

Speaker 1 And now he's, I mean, he's pretty well-respected musician in England. Wow.
And it's all through dreams.

Speaker 31 It's incredible. And one of the things that I came across listening that I wanted to know more about is John Paul and Lily and that connection.

Speaker 31 Can you explain that to the audience who may not have heard it yet?

Speaker 1 Yeah. I mean, there's a non-speaker featured in the Shalopathy Tapes.
His name is John Paul.

Speaker 31 He's episode four.

Speaker 1 He's episode four. And he's ginormous.
I mean, he's almost, he's like almost seven feet tall. He's a huge individual.
And he had a girlfriend named Lily.

Speaker 1 They would letterboard, but they'd often say when they were letterboarding, it was for like everyone's benefit around them, that most of their relationship was telepathic.

Speaker 1 And John Paul's mother used to say it was really funny because they would go on like dates at her house and like they'd be on different floors. And she'd be like, are they even hanging out?

Speaker 1 Like, what is this? And then she would leave and John Paul would be like, that was so great. We had so many awesome conversations.

Speaker 1 You know, because a lot of it was happening mind to mind and it was just a beautiful part of it.

Speaker 1 And the parents would kind of marvel at like sometimes in the exact second, they'd each, each would come down and say, I want to go see that, you know, John Paul, I want to go see Lily.

Speaker 1 We text and the text would come in from each other right at the same time. And that's when the parents were like, they're talking to each other.
from

Speaker 1 where they're what how is this happening it was telepathy so yeah i mean and that you know john paul loved lily so much and Lily loves John Paul. I mean, they really wanted to get married.

Speaker 1 And I think it's such an important, beautiful element of this.

Speaker 1 And I think it's important for everyone to understand is like a non-speaking individual is still an individual with their high school interests and, you know, hobbies and desires and bands they like and clothes they like and things they want and relationships they want.

Speaker 1 I mean, I think the spiritual gifts is just a part of it. It's just a part of it.

Speaker 1 Like, I don't think it's healthy to look at these individuals as oracles or, you know, they're human beings that just are more tapped into this.

Speaker 28 Yeah, right, right.

Speaker 31 And I think that's a really important point that you made there. It's like

Speaker 31 we all have different gifts and abilities. And it's just, I think, if you start to think that this person is gifted beyond that, that can get quite messy.
I assume

Speaker 31 in any way, for anyone.

Speaker 1 For sure. You know, I mean, Lily likes biking and go-karting, and John Paul loved poetry and swimming and manatees.
And like, Mia from episode one wants to be a writer. She wants to go to Japan.

Speaker 1 Like, the most important thing is to know any individual, what makes them tick, what their interests are,

Speaker 1 what they want to do with their lives. I mean, like, these are the questions we all should be entitled to answer for ourselves.

Speaker 1 And every non-speaking individual, and I just want people to like remember this, is an individual that should be met in that way.

Speaker 1 And this is, these gifts, if they appear in such an individual, is beautiful and cool, but it's not, it doesn't define them.

Speaker 31 Can you explain the hill?

Speaker 1 Well, this was something that didn't form for me as like a valid thing immediately.

Speaker 1 There was a few non-speakers in Atlanta that said that they connect on the hill telepathically and that it's a chat chat room, basically, a telepathic chat room where you can tune in.

Speaker 1 And Houston was the name who named it. He actually named it the Chat on the Hill, the Talk on the Hill.

Speaker 1 And then his good friend John Paul said that he goes there and he would put pillows on his head to block out stuff. And then his girlfriend, Lily, said she goes there.

Speaker 1 And that a lot of people congregate there and that there's more than one hill. So I had a hard time wrapping my head around that.
And at first I'm like, okay, it's an Atlanta thing.

Speaker 1 Like the individuals in Atlanta are doing this. Where I really

Speaker 1 talk about a two by four, like there's been a few moments. And for one, for me, was when I had just met this new teacher in Chicago.
She had no idea about telepathy at all. She had reached out to Dr.

Speaker 1 Powell because her students were talking about ghosts and seeing ghosts and knowing things. And it totally weirded her out.
Like it was just weird. So she, she hops on the call with me and Dr.
Powell.

Speaker 1 She's explaining this. I did a follow-up call with her once she saw that the telepathy was happening.

Speaker 1 And then she said, and you would not believe it, like some of the kids are saying they go to this place called the hill and on the hill They can learn this and learn that and I thought what

Speaker 1 and then

Speaker 1 Fully third person was this minister from like a mega church in Arizona I met him. He was very nervous to talk about this He was writing his own book.

Speaker 1 He thought this was only in his congregation that he you know again It was it was a miracle that he alone was privy to I met him and then he was telling me a story about how one of his students would just met with another non-speaker from another church in another state and he's like and they were talking about the weirdest thing when they're getting the phone.

Speaker 1 They They started spelling to each other, meet me at the hill. And he's like, do you know what that is? And I think I was stunned because now here's someone in Minnesota talking about

Speaker 1 Arizona, Chicago, and Atlanta. So after, I had to go through a lot of hill references to believe it myself.
And now there's no doubt in my mind.

Speaker 31 That's, I can't wait to learn more about that.

Speaker 1 Yeah, it's cool. It's very frustrating, I think, for a lot of non-speakers because you want to do something and your body totally betrays you.

Speaker 1 You might want to enter a room and instead you're leaving it. And the only time it seems like they're able to really like gather and communicate their true thoughts is through spelling.

Speaker 1 That mind-body disconnect taught me a lot because, for instance, Akhil, who we feature in episode two, he didn't know where his body was.

Speaker 1 And for a lot of people who need to be touched when they first learn spelling, it's because they don't know where their body is. Akhil didn't know he had fingers.
He had to be massaged over and over.

Speaker 1 I remember Houston, when he first was spelling, he said he needed heavy boots so he knew where the ground was.

Speaker 1 And so you can imagine if you don't feel connected to your body to the point where you don't even think you have one, you're living in the mental world that consciousness is fundamental.

Speaker 31 That makes even more sense now.

Speaker 1 I think it's less about non-speaking people.

Speaker 1 I don't think it has much to do with autism at all. I think it has to do with aprexia and not being connected to your body.

Speaker 45 Noticed unwanted facial volume loss after GLP1 weight loss? The weight came off, but volume loss and dull, sagging skin are making you look older. Now you can reclaim your youthful looking appearance.

Speaker 31 Yeah, that that is completely, yeah, that makes so much more sense. When I was looking at studies on monks' brains, they found that when

Speaker 31 monks were doing the deepest meditations, if they put their hand on a hot plate, which most of us would touch and immediately take our hand back, that they were able to keep their hand on it because they're disconnected from the physical experience.

Speaker 31 So it didn't feel hot to them at all because they were so removed from their physical state. That's it.
And those studies have been proven and shown.

Speaker 31 And just that idea of being so deep in meditation that you didn't feel

Speaker 31 heat. And I think people, you know, it's really interesting to think about Eastern traditions.
There's a beautiful statement by C.S. Lewis that says,

Speaker 31 you don't have a soul, you are the soul and you have a body.

Speaker 31 And going to your consciousness point, that idea that

Speaker 31 because we live as if we are the body,

Speaker 31 Eastern traditions would argue that therefore we only know what the body knows. We only know our limits based on physicality.

Speaker 31 But for those of us that know we're not the body and that we're consciousness, so much more is accessible.

Speaker 31 And that's where your point around belief system and value system and everything else come in that, oh, wait a minute, I'm not, I'm not actually just limited by this. Right.

Speaker 1 Absolutely. And I think that like when we understand that and praxia and the mind-body disconnect,

Speaker 1 and that can help inform a lot of the confusion around spelling, you know, because certainly if you don't know where your body is, when you're learning, it helps to touch.

Speaker 1 And that's why when people throw facilitated communication out because you're being touched, it's like, no, if that's working for someone and they need pressure the whole time to know where their hand is, put pressure on their hand so they can spell.

Speaker 1 Awesome. Cool.

Speaker 1 Like, let's assist people to get to their best selves and their whole, you know, but yeah, the mind-body disconnect, the not knowing where your body is, because non-speakers say that over and over and over and over again, that they're not living in their body.

Speaker 1 They don't feel their body. They don't have control over their body.
And so, so then what is the reality? It's not the body reality. It's a different reality.

Speaker 1 And this is what we're all tuning into, this different reality that they're able to talk about as messengers. because of a plight, honestly.

Speaker 1 I think most of them feel very frustrated about the inability to control their body, but the gifts that come along with it. And John Paul, when he said,

Speaker 1 I think Libby once asked him, like,

Speaker 1 you know, what about, what do you love most about yourself? And he was like, everything. You know, so I do think like that experience of not being tethered to your body can be beautiful.

Speaker 1 It's just different from what we're seeing. We're seeing a body that's having a very difficult time managing in the world, but their experience is not bodily to the same degree.

Speaker 5 Yeah.

Speaker 31 I was speaking to one of my friends the other day, and he was

Speaker 31 very deep into AI. And he was explaining to me that if you looked at an extremely, extremely below-average individual in terms of IQ,

Speaker 31 Einstein was only 2.4 more times intelligent than that person.

Speaker 31 And then if you look at AI, we can't even comprehend how intelligent AI is because AI is going to be, is already 100 times more intelligent than that, million times more intelligent, could be expansively 10 million times more intelligent than Einstein, which is.

Speaker 31 bizarre to even experience and imagine because how could someone be more intelligent and have a better IQ than Einstein?

Speaker 31 And it's just really interesting when you look at it from that dimension that I think we're already with AI experiencing something quite remarkable and quite beyond.

Speaker 31 Like it's quite phenomenal that we kind of take it as something that's to some degree becoming normalized. Right.

Speaker 31 When it's really not that normal that there are going to be, and just because we see it as computers and tech, but being able to understand us, being able to know our needs, being able to know what we want to hear.

Speaker 31 I've read so many articles with people now using AI as their therapist and everything else and feeling so understood. Yes.

Speaker 31 And but that's the same kind of curiosity and openness we have to have over here. Yes.
Of just being open to marvel at these incredible abilities. I don't know if that resonates or

Speaker 5 am I getting it wrong?

Speaker 1 I mean, no,

Speaker 1 I think it's fascinating. I mean, I think we can attach so much of our personal needs

Speaker 1 onto anything. You know what I mean? And AI is just a all of this is converging at the same time.

Speaker 1 And that's what's, that's what's most interesting is like AI and like what that's making us question about consciousness.

Speaker 1 I think even psychedelics and people's embrace of how that can help with mental health and explorations of consciousness and the trials they're doing where people feel like they are certain there's more, you know?

Speaker 1 And that's happening with this exposure of what the non-speakers are hoping to, I think, teach us

Speaker 1 alongside sudden interests and validation around UAP. Like it seems like it's all converging at once.
Yes. And we're just like in the water of it right now.

Speaker 1 Like I don't even think we realize how significant this moment is for humans and consciousness. It's a cool time to be alive.

Speaker 31 Yeah. How do we make sure that it's not made quiet and put down? Because I imagine that that's, you know, a natural thing that's happened in the past as well.

Speaker 1 Yeah, that it's been, it's backed down and just because it's seen as scary.

Speaker 31 It's or people are like, oh, this is bad or it's, you know, whatever. So how do we how do we make sure that we keep asking these questions?

Speaker 1 And I think social media has changed everything because I think the scaffolding of control was always very powerful before because it's like someone had the ability to silence you and no one would know that happened.

Speaker 1 Like you could be just quieted and not be able to get your truth out and they'd steal your camera and it was done, you know?

Speaker 1 But I feel like, or there'd just be a mass discredit, you know, discrediting of someone.

Speaker 1 What's happening now with social media is you can get out a truth very quickly and find other people who agree and concur and thumb up it. And

Speaker 1 it's much more difficult to make someone seem bonkers, especially when there's a lot of people validating a truth.

Speaker 31 If scientists and others in the community are open to wanting to go and be with the non-speakers and be a part of this, how do we do it?

Speaker 31 And how does the general public do it in a way that isn't disrespectful? Isn't because I can imagine that testing and things could be exhausting for these individuals. They're humans.

Speaker 31 We're kind of, you know, this whole process is somewhat invasive of.

Speaker 1 Yeah, I mean, I

Speaker 1 get very nervous about that. And I feel like scientists and researchers, it's like, you have your questions, but like, just let's pause for a second.

Speaker 1 You know, and one of the things that we've been talking about and trying to start a foundation for and put like profits that come in from the film or anything or donations to this foundation that maybe could try to open up centers in different states or cities where non-speakers can go and learn to spell for free in an affordable way and

Speaker 1 have physical therapy and parents can have respite care where they can bring their child here and they know they'll be well taken care of and the non-speakers can have their physical and mental and spiritual needs met.

Speaker 1 And then,

Speaker 1 only then, it's like if there's an interest that one individual is like, I do want to study whales, then maybe like through these centers, a scientist who's a marine biologist could apply, and they have to learn how to spell and they have to like really get vetted and be on the level of the non-speakers.

Speaker 1 And then there could be like a way that maybe where they pay the non-speaker to work with them.

Speaker 1 And so that way it's equitable and it's all centered on the non-speaker and really working to fit into their world instead of asking them to be a square peg fitting into like the round hole of our world.

Speaker 1 And so I think we just have to approach it differently. The thing that makes me sick is the idea of someone being like, I want to test non-speakers and do this and do that.
Like that is gross.

Speaker 1 And I can't imagine. I don't think many families would, I mean, some very science-minded people might, but.

Speaker 1 Like I know one of our individuals that is in our project like really wants to learn plant medicine. How awesome.

Speaker 1 But like let's find a scientist who deeply cares and just doesn't want to like ask questions and cut and run.

Speaker 1 Like pay the individual, you know, bring them into the fold, help with their education, you know, so there's a way to do it ethically and we just have to get there first.

Speaker 31 How does that feel after three and a half years of work? I'm sure like finally sharing it with the world and receiving those emails yourself and what's that experience been like?

Speaker 1 I think the worst outcome for me, which would have been really awful, would have been like if we were getting emails being like, this isn't true, this isn't true.

Speaker 1 But the opposite has happened where it's so many parents who are like, I always thought this was, but, you know, my wife didn't believe me, or her husband didn't believe me, or blank, blank, blank.

Speaker 1 And now like, we're having open conversations and we're sending it to the nieces and nephews and uncles and aunts. And like, that's really cool.
And it's just so beautiful.

Speaker 1 I mean, it's beautiful because I think people are finding community. And my biggest concern always is for people to live like a transparent whole life.

Speaker 1 Like, don't compartmentalize, don't lie in secret, just be all of you.

Speaker 1 And I think for non-speaking individuals, they are able to now be all of themselves because so many more people are willing and able to see them and receive them. And that is beautiful.

Speaker 1 Like there's no, there's nothing that can compare to that.

Speaker 31 And how has it impacted your personal, spiritual, and consciousness journey of understanding yourself on a deeper level?

Speaker 1 I mean, I

Speaker 1 believe all sorts of things I didn't three and a half years ago. I certainly believe that consciousness is...
survives. I actually think consciousness is not local.

Speaker 1 I don't believe our body creates it.

Speaker 1 I mean, I think we help and assist in that and our memories and all those things work together, but I I think we are working with consciousness coming in from somewhere else.

Speaker 1 I certainly believe in things like precognition and psi abilities and even mediumship abilities, stuff like that that I didn't, that I dismissed before.

Speaker 1 Yeah, I mean, I'm forever changed, you know, and it's cool. Like I have young kids and it's cool watching how they're growing up with these things.
I mean, they hear about it all the time.

Speaker 1 They're hearing the Zoom calls.

Speaker 1 And it's just part of their life. Like I saw my daughter playing Barbies the other day and they were, and this is actually a few years back when I was still working on it.

Speaker 1 And they were divving up like, like, okay, your Barbies are doing this, and this is the identity of your Barbies. My daughter goes, and my two Barbies are non-speakers.

Speaker 1 And then her friend is like, well, how are they going to talk? And she's like, through telepathy. And I was just like, oh my gosh, that's great.
You know, just watching it, like

Speaker 1 being part and parcel of, you know, their world is cool.

Speaker 31 What's the wildest thought of yours they read

Speaker 31 when you didn't know?

Speaker 1 I mean, it was an embarrassing thought. And I had no idea the extent.
And I'm not even going to say what it was, but we were sitting at a a table and it was after a long day of shooting. Dr.

Speaker 1 Powell was there. We had another neuroscientist there.
I think Katie was there. Houston was there.

Speaker 1 And I remember, I don't remember exactly what the thought was, but it was enough that it was like an embarrassing, silly thing.

Speaker 1 And all of a sudden, the second I thought it, Houston like laughed and like spit out his beer practically. And I'm like, oh my gosh, he heard my thought.

Speaker 1 And that was where I was like, wow, okay.

Speaker 1 Like, cause when we were doing the telepathy test, it's one thing, but when you experience it over like a beer and you realize someone heard your thought and like laughed, that was when I'm like, okay, I got to like clean it out again, clear it out.

Speaker 31 Gosh. Kai, is there anything that I didn't ask you that you really wanted to share or something that's on your heart or mind that you didn't get to speak on that you would like to share?

Speaker 1 The final episode of the telepathy tapes, I gave the floor to non-speakers from all over the world. And I think the best lessons aren't there.

Speaker 1 And like one thing that I think about all the time is one of the non-speakers said that kindness is the best way to evolve.

Speaker 1 And so. I just want people to think about that.
And when people are very afraid about, you know, one thing you didn't ask about was like the fear about reading thoughts.

Speaker 1 And I had to think about that a lot over the past few years, that why does that so scary to people?

Speaker 1 And I think it's scary because people don't maybe like the thoughts in their head or it's too, you know, they'd feel too exposed.

Speaker 1 But if we are capable of this and we're being called maybe to like get to a place where this is a communication we're all capable of, then we're first called to like clean our own thoughts a little bit.

Speaker 1 And that's easy to control, how you think about people, how you think about yourself, how you think about the world around you, the choices you're making.

Speaker 1 And if you are conscious about those thoughts all the time and making them pure and loving, it's not scary if someone's reading them.

Speaker 1 So I think that like, I love that, that kindness is the best way to evolve. Because some non-speakers are saying, hey, we are all capable of this.
This is where we're going to go.

Speaker 1 We all have to do that hard work of like becoming more loving.

Speaker 1 kind individuals first.

Speaker 31 Do you think it's possible that we will become capable or have the opportunity to become capable to communicate that way?

Speaker 1 Many non-speakers I've met have said that we are capable of that. And I, again, I I trust their

Speaker 1 insights more than I trust my own. I do think we're all capable of it.
I've seen it turned on in teachers. I think it's all possible.
And I think for those, it's scary to take a look inside.

Speaker 1 Let that be a mirror, you know?

Speaker 1 And it's a beautiful thing because one non-speaker, and then I know it will end, but like one non-speaker once said that, look, if you say the word Thanksgiving, you've said the word Thanksgiving.

Speaker 1 But if I telepathically send it, you're given the football game on and your uncle pulling up and sleeping in your childhood bed and the smells and like your favorite candy and seeing this person and the smell of your mom's hair and like all the whole thing.

Speaker 1 And it's an experience that is so immensely beautiful. And there's no sarcasm and there's no withholding and there's no exaggerating.
It's all just the pure.

Speaker 1 And to me, it's like, wow. What would happen if we were all living that way?

Speaker 1 So if we do get to a space where more of us are telepathically communicating, I think it's going to be good for humanity, not bad.

Speaker 31 If you knew what someone was thinking, how would you speak differently too? I think that's the other side.

Speaker 31 One side is being able to read and maybe someone cleaning their thoughts, but if I could see what you were thinking, how would I speak to you differently? How would I look at you differently?

Speaker 31 How would I connect with you differently? It would transform,

Speaker 31 hopefully, how we'd take care of each other as well.

Speaker 1 It does, totally. And I've learned that just being around non-speaker is making sure, like in my thoughts, it's like, okay, like they're being read.

Speaker 1 So just make sure they're, and then so the whole day, you're empty, actually. It's like you're meditating in a way.
Like my keep my thoughts really empty.

Speaker 1 And I actually find even like directing it with them is easier to do that. Like you just empty out and you feel better at the end of the day.
You feel great at the end of the day.

Speaker 1 You're living in the moment because most of our thoughts are what just happened or what's in the future. And when you're just empty, you're like wholly present.

Speaker 1 And so that's the gift where I'm always like being with non-speakers, aware that

Speaker 1 of my thoughts and just trying to have none.

Speaker 31 That's beautiful. It's a beautiful way to live.
That's beautiful. Yeah.
Yeah. That's beautiful.
Kai, it it has been

Speaker 31 so fascinating talking to you. Honestly, I think the work that you're doing is

Speaker 31 so inspiring.

Speaker 31 And

Speaker 31 truly, there's been very little that I think we've had to be curious about for a long time when it comes to this space.

Speaker 31 And I really feel like you've brought something to the fore that we can all be spiritually curious about.

Speaker 31 And the questions that you're asking are so intriguing to me than questions that I believe we all should be looking for the answers.

Speaker 31 I think for a long time we've thought about physical questions like how do we make the body stronger and how do we sleep better and how do and those are really important questions. I stand by that.

Speaker 31 We do that a lot on this show. But similarly, I think we're all asking questions of like, why do we exist? And why am I here? And, you know, do I really understand the abilities that I have?

Speaker 31 And especially for those that have been seen as, like you said, that they're not in there to realize that there is a purpose, there is a value, there is a gift, there is, of course, there is already, but inherently, but there's so much more that we don't know.

Speaker 31 And so, I'm so grateful for your time and energy, not just today, but for the last three and a half years of you dedicating your life to this purpose and for sharing it with me so openly and graciously with me and my audience.

Speaker 31 And I'm sure everyone, if they're not already listening to the telepathy tapes, which I'm sure they are, will go back and listen or will listen for the first time and help pass it on.

Speaker 31 How else can people support or connect if they want to be a part of this work with you and encourage you or even want to write to you, how can they get in touch or how can they follow along?

Speaker 1 Yeah, I mean, we are on all the social media at the telepathy tapes. I would encourage people, though, I mean, my biggest ask is please, like, just presume competence.

Speaker 1 If you see a non-speaker, if you meet a non-speaker, if you work with non-speakers, they are in there. They're human beings.
Help them get on boards, learn to spell.

Speaker 1 And if you are interested in getting engaged with non-speakers, you could become a spelling to communicate partner by going to S2C or Spelling to Communicate or Spellers Method.

Speaker 1 Like, just go look into this because we need more spellers. I mean, that's the biggest ask is just that everyone starts assisting them and meeting them and presuming competence.

Speaker 1 That's everything to me.

Speaker 31 Kai, I hope we can stay in touch. I can ask you more questions, hear updates, and continue this conversation offline as well.

Speaker 31 I feel like there's so many great spiritual conversations to be had and shared. And I can't wait to see where this works goes.

Speaker 31 So here as a supporter and cheerleader and look forward forward to learning lots more.

Speaker 1 Thank you. Thank you for having me out.
Thank you so much.

Speaker 31 If this is the year that you're trying to get creative, you're trying to build more, I need you to listen to this episode with Rick Rubin on how to break into your most creative self, how to use unconventional methods that lead to success and the secret to genuinely loving what you do.

Speaker 31 If you're trying to find your passion and your lane, Rick Rubin's episode is the one for you.

Speaker 46 Just because I like it, that doesn't give it any value. Like as an artist, if you like it, that's all of the value.

Speaker 46 That's the success comes when you say, I like this enough for other people to see it.
