S2E19: A Non-Speaker and A Family Secret | Talk Tracks

The Telepathy Tapes returns October 7 with Season 3: The Reincarnation Records. If The Telepathy Tapes deconstructed what you believe about consciousness, The Reincarnation Records may shatter it. On October 7th, Ky Dickens takes on one of humanity’s oldest questions in a new podcast, The Reincarnation Records: What if memory doesn’t begin at birth? If The Telepathy Tapes challenged the way we think about consciousness, The Reincarnation Records confronts evidence that could alter what we believe about death. Around the world, young children have described lives they seemingly never lived. They remember people they’ve never met, speak languages they’ve never learned, and know intimate details about places they’ve never visited. Some describe sudden or traumatic deaths, with birthmarks that appear to mirror the injuries they recall. Others exhibit unexplained fears, behaviors or extraordinary abilities that seem to belong to the lives they claim came before. And remarkably, in most cases, simply allowing children to talk about these memories appears to bring profound emotional and even physical healing. In a worldwide investigation spanning France, Nepal, Vietnam, Germany, Brazil, Tibet, Sri Lanka, and the United States, Dickens works with researchers and experts from around the world, including scholars affiliated with the University of Virginia and Harvard, to examine extraordinary cases and the evidence behind them. We meet children whose memories contain startlingly specific details that can sometimes be independently verified, and families whose understanding of reality has been transformed by what their children remember. Along the way, we trace the ancient debate over whether we’ve lived before, from contested ideas in early Christianity to the extraordinary Tibetan Buddhist process used to identify the reincarnating Dalai Lama. Could suggestion, coincidence or cultural influence explain these stories? What happens when a child’s statements are documented before anyone knows whom they might be describing? And if even a fraction of these cases resist conventional explanation, what happens to the worldview we’ve built around the idea that consciousness begins at birth and ends at death?

Can dreams and synchronicities be the Universe's way of leading you to become your best self? In this Talk Tracks episode, Ky sits down with researcher, author, and talk show host Dr. Jeffrey Mishlove, the world's first and only PhD in Parapsychology. For fifty years Dr. Mishlove has hosted radio, television, and podcast shows where he interviewed the top minds in frontier science, speaking with leaders in fields such as physics and psychology. Currently his Youtube channel, New Thinking Allowed, releases new episodes daily. Dr. Mishlove has also authored articles and books on the paranormal and psychical research, including The Roots of Consciousness, Psi Development Systems, and The PK Man. Together, Ky and Dr. Mishlove explore the shared death experience that launched his career in parapsychology, and the dreams that guided his journey. Dr. Mishlove also shares stories from early-1970s San Francisco, reflecting on the eclectic cast of characters who shaped that era. Finally, they dive into his award-winning 2021 Bigelow Institute essay, which presents compelling evidence for the survival of human consciousness after permanent bodily death. _______ Join The Telepathy Tapes Backstage Pass to get ad-free episodes, never-before-heard interviews, behind-the-scenes documentary footage, and access to our private Discord community.

What happens when someone seems to experience another person’s death from the inside? In this episode of The Talk Tracks, Ky explores the little-known phenomenon of shared death experiences - reports in which a loved one, caregiver, or even someone far away from the dying person describes seeing, feeling, or briefly accompanying part of their transition. We hear extraordinary firsthand accounts from Christine Coyne and Elizabeth Boisson, as well as the story of Dr. Joan Borysenko and her son, who both reported unusual experiences as Joan’s mother died. Researcher William Peters explains the patterns his team has identified across more than 150 reported cases, including a surprising number that occurred remotely, sometimes before the experiencer even knew a death was taking place. Ky also speaks with neuroscientist Dr. Marjorie Woollacott and physician Dr. Monica Williams about what these accounts may tell us about consciousness, the limits of our current scientific models, and why healthcare providers should be prepared to listen when patients and families report experiences they cannot easily explain. _______ Join The Telepathy Tapes Backstage Pass to get ad-free episodes, never-before-heard interviews, behind-the-scenes documentary footage, and access to our private Discord community.

Astrology is often reduced to sun signs and daily horoscopes, but its history and practice go far deeper. In this episode, Ky sits down with New York Times bestselling author and astrologer Chani Nicholas for a wide-ranging exploration of what astrology actually is, where it comes from, and how it has been used across centuries. Chani breaks down the basics of a birth chart, rising signs, houses, planets, and timing techniques, while tracing astrology back to ancient systems of observing patterns between the sky and life on Earth. Together they explore fate versus free will, astrology as a tool for self-understanding and purpose, and the idea that the movements of the cosmos may reflect patterns unfolding within a larger, interconnected reality. Chani explains the major astrological shifts happening now and what previous cycles might suggest about the moment we’re living through. Whether you’re deeply versed in astrology or have never looked beyond your sun sign, this conversation offers a fascinating introduction to the history, philosophy, and practice behind one of humanity’s oldest systems for making meaning of the sky. _______ Explore Chani's book, You Were Born for This: Astrology for Radical Self-Acceptance.

What if intuition isn’t a rare gift, but a capacity we all possess in different ways? This week, Ky sits down with intuitive teacher Anna Naturalista, who says her own psychic experiences began in early childhood and were encouraged rather than dismissed by the family and spiritual traditions around her. Anna introduces what she calls the six languages of intuition. From clairvoyance and clairaudience to the lesser-known experiences of intuitive knowing, feeling, taste, and smell - and shares practical ways she believes we can become more aware of the signals already showing up in our lives. Together, Ky and Anna explore the difference between intuition and ordinary thought, why self-trust may be essential to hearing our internal guidance, and how slowing down enough to notice our patterns can help us distinguish meaningful signals from the noise around us. The conversation ultimately turns toward love, service, and a simple question: when we find ourselves longing for something from the outside world, what might change if we first looked for a way to offer it ourselves?
