AJ Capasso, paranormal investigator and near death experiencer, shares his journey from opioid addiction and 12 overdoses to founding an international paranormal podcast and investigating the mysteries of the afterlife. AJ survived a profound near death experience after his final overdose in 2014 during the opioid epidemic. He describes leaving his body, standing above two paramedics working on him, and being able to simultaneously exist in multiple places just by thought. He experienced a life review where he felt the pain he caused others through their eyes, traveled through hyperspace passing stars, and arrived at a vibrant landscape with colors he'd never seen, extinct animals like wooly mammoths, creatures that don't exist on Earth, and angels of all different sizes. A being of pure light 9-10 feet tall told him it wasn't his time before he was pulled back into his body when paramedics used the paddles. After his NDE, AJ developed abilities to feel energy and presences in rooms, sense what people were feeling (hunger, anger, sadness), and feel crystals vibrating in his hand. He founded Coventry Circle Paranormal and launched Talking with the Source, an international podcast featuring paranormal teams, researchers, and experiencers from around the world. His most mind-blowing evidence includes a spirit box session where his friend's deceased wife predicted a future Mother's Day event six weeks in advance with impossible accuracy, and another session predicting a blood disease diagnosis two days before doctors discovered it.

Marjorie Woollacott, PhD, a neuroscientist and emeritus professor at the University of Oregon, shares her journey from materialist scientist to consciousness researcher and her work on telepathy in children with nonspeaking autism, terminal lucidity, and near death experiences. Dr. Woollacott was a strict materialist who believed the brain creates consciousness until a meditation initiation changed everything. She describes feeling a current of electricity flow from her forehead to her heart, radiating pure joy and love throughout her body. Her worldview shifted overnight, though it took 25 years to integrate her neuroscience career with her meditation practice. She explains how she lived a double life, kicking her husband under the table at dinner parties when he'd mention energy healing, terrified of losing credibility with colleagues. We discuss her research on telepathy in nonspeaking autistic children, including a boy who typed five digit numbers with 99% accuracy by reading his mother's mind (compared to 5% above chance in typical adults). She addresses skeptics' concerns about agency and facilitated communication, explaining the rigorous controls in current studies. Dr. Woollacott shares her work on terminal lucidity, where people with severe dementia or brain damage regain full consciousness in their final hours, recognizing loved ones and saying goodbye before dying peacefully. She describes how this phenomenon challenges materialist neuroscience since damaged brains should not produce lucid consciousness. The conversation covers Dr. Bettina Peyton's near death experience during childbirth when her heart stopped and she watched the resuscitation team save her life despite having her eyes taped shut. Marjorie explains how meditation and NDEs reduce neural filters (the default mode network, reticular activating system, language centers) that normally limit our awareness, allowing expanded consciousness and psi abilities. She discusses Ian Stevenson's reincarnation research, birthmark cases that match past life wounds, and why consciousness creating the body makes more sense than genes alone.

Hakim Isler, creator of the Psi Games, reveals how anyone can develop psychic abilities through competitive training and why the next generation holds the key to humanity's evolution. Hakim shares his journey from ninja martial arts (ninjutsu, the art of perseverance) to military psychological operations, then remote viewing and Mindsight training with legendary remote viewers Paul Smith, Joe McMoneagle, and Dale Graff. He explains the difference between remote viewing (perceiving information at a distance) and Mindsight (seeing through blindfolds), why his best remote viewing happened when stressed and rushed (not calm and meditative), and Ingo Swann's principle: "You should be able to remote view in a foxhole." We discuss the Psi Games, a cross-generational conference featuring lectures, workshops, and tournament-style competitions in remote viewing, dowsing, and Mindsight. Hakim describes Dahlia's perfect Mindsight run in under one minute that earned a standing ovation and inspired hundreds to start training, and how the event grew from 100 to 620 attendees in year one. The conversation covers Hakim's childhood experiences (walking at eight months as a sign for his mother to leave abuse, predicting lottery numbers at nine, declaring he'd become a ninja and fulfilling that prophecy 12 years later), his out-of-body experience receiving messages about protecting planets from low vibrational entities, why ethical mentorship matters for young people developing psi abilities, and his palm leaf reading confirming past life experiences. This episode is for anyone interested in developing psychic abilities, parents noticing unusual abilities in children, or those seeking practical psi training.

Olivia LaBarre, animal communicator and Reiki practitioner, reveals how animals communicate with us—both while living and after they've passed. She explains how she receives messages from animals (visual images, physical sensations, emotions, and "just knowing"), why animal communication comes more clearly than human mediumship, and how wild animals communicate differently than companion animals. Olivia shares remarkable verified readings: Tinkerbelle the cat who sent circus tent images (her guardian had a circus tent tattoo, photo sets, and passed them daily going to cancer treatments), and a cat in spirit who promised to send another cat to the yard—then a mountain lion appeared, made eye contact, groomed itself, and visited for days. We also discuss Enzo, the spirited white dog with congestive heart failure who told his grieving family to stop anticipatory mourning and have fun together—leading to the best summer of their lives before he peacefully transitioned on his 15th gotcha day anniversary. The conversation covers how animals understand death and aren't afraid of it, why they're okay with you getting new pets after they pass (and often help you find them), whether our deceased animals are together on the other side, signs from animals in spirit, and practical tips for communicating with your own pets. Olivia also explains Reiki for animals, how it's helped cats with congestive heart failure improve unexpectedly, and the beautiful experience of being energetically connected with animals as they transition (sparkles, bright colors, feelings of freedom). This episode is for anyone grieving a pet, wanting to communicate with living or deceased animals, or curious about the bond that transcends death.

Karen Bell, internationally recognized clairvoyant and channeler, joins the show to discuss her upcoming Omega Institute workshop, Amplify Your Intuition: A Guided Journey to Trusting Your Inner Wisdom. She explains how to distinguish genuine intuitive guidance from protective anxiety patterns, why intuition manifests differently for different people (visual, auditory, or physical sensations), and why reducing stress is essential for accessing clear decision-making. Karen shares her story of closing a successful Etsy shop to follow an illogical nudge that led to channeling Sarai, a non-physical being who now informs her teaching. We discuss how intuition feels persistent and gentle (unlike urgent fear-based thoughts), why your body is a psychic instrument that constantly signals what feels aligned, and how to create calm in your nervous system to hear your inner wisdom clearly. The conversation covers practical tools for recognizing your unique intuitive voice, why people get stuck not in receiving guidance but in trusting and acting on it, and who should attend the workshop (anyone who overthinks, second-guesses, or struggles to take action on their guidance). This episode is for anyone navigating major life transitions, questioning career or relationships, feeling disconnected from their intuition, or wanting to develop a deeper relationship with their inner knowing.

What does it mean when you dream in a language you don't speak or share a dream with your dog? Dr. Bonnie Buckner, author of The Secret Mind: Unlock the Power of Dreams to Transform Your Life and founder of the International Institute for Dreaming and Imagery, explores the mysterious aspects of dreaming—including how to recognize when a deceased loved one is actually visiting versus appearing as a dream character. We explore her family's dream story (her grandmother taught her father to find a lost knife through dreaming), how to distinguish regular dreams from premonitory dreams and visitation dreams, and why handwriting versus typing matters (spell-check ruins dream analysis). Dr. Buckner shares a case where a client's dream revealed she didn't want either job offer—she wanted to open her own practice (and did, successfully), why she dreamed in fluent German and Hebrew for over a year despite not speaking either language, and how dreams feel different when you're actually connecting with a deceased loved one. We also cover dream incubation techniques for major decisions, why staying in your body expands dreaming capacity, shared dreams between people and pets, and practical steps to remember and work with your dreams. This conversation is for anyone navigating grief seeking visitation dreams, struggling with major life decisions, or curious about the mysterious aspects of consciousness that dreams reveal.

Can consciousness exist independently of the brain? Dr. Marina Weiler, Assistant Professor at the University of Virginia's Division of Perceptual Studies (DOPS), shares research on mediumship, out-of-body experiences, remote viewing, and non-speaking children with psychic abilities. A neuroscientist specializing in consciousness studies, Dr. Weiler explains how rigorous scientific methods are being used to investigate phenomena suggesting the mind operates beyond the physical brain. We discuss the award-winning Bigelow Institute research on Brazilian medium Chico Xavier, who produced over 500 books and 10,000 letters attributed to deceased individuals despite only elementary school education. Dr. Weiler shares current DOPS studies using EEG and eye-tracking technology to investigate out-of-body experiences and telepathy in non-speaking individuals. She describes veridical cases including a three-year-old who accurately reported what his parents were doing while asleep in another room, and addresses the controversy surrounding The Telepathy Tapes podcast. A grounded conversation about consciousness research, afterlife evidence, grief, and what decades of scientific investigation reveals about survival after death.

ITC and EVP researcher Tony Rathman explains Staticom 3.0 and real-time spirit communication. Instrumental Transcommunication (ITC) and Electronic Voice Phenomena (EVP) are often dismissed as noise or coincidence, but this episode explores why some researchers believe the evidence goes much further. Tony Rathman, an ITC researcher and creator of the Staticom 3.0 system, explains the difference between EVP and ITC, how real-time two-way communication is said to work, and why he moved away from radio-based methods toward white-noise and closed-circuit systems designed to remove common skeptical objections. Tony shares how he went from skeptic to researcher after recording direct, relevant voice responses during early investigations, and how years of testing led to clearer, longer, and more interactive communication. We discuss consciousness beyond the brain, why voices appear to follow consistent rules, why future predictions are not given, and what this research suggests about survival of consciousness after death. A grounded conversation on ITC, EVP, spirit communication, grief, consciousness, and the implications this research could have for science, religion, and how we understand life after death.

Akashic Records readings are used to explore past lives, relationships, life purpose, and emotional blocks, and this episode breaks down how that information is accessed and applied for healing and clarity. Liz speaks with Krista Rauschenberg, an Akashic Records Facilitator and Certified Breathwork Practitioner, about how the Akashic Records are described as an energetic record of the soul and how people use them for self-discovery, decision-making, and spiritual healing. They discuss how Akashic Breathwork helps release emotional blockages, reduce stress, and realign the body and nervous system, along with big questions listeners often ask, including first-life souls, reincarnating with the same people, soul groups, animals in soul families, and how future possibilities appear during readings. A grounded conversation on Akashic Records, breathwork, intuition, consciousness, grief, and healing, with real examples of how this work shows up in everyday life.

Near-death experiences and past-life memories are often dismissed, yet at the University of Virginia's Division of Perceptual Studies they are examined using rigorous psychiatric and neuroscience research methods. In this episode, Marieta Pehlivanova, PhD, Research Assistant Professor of Psychiatry and Neurobehavioral Sciences at UVA, explains how near-death experiences are defined and measured in scientific research, why many experiencers struggle after returning, and what decades of data suggest about consciousness beyond the brain. The conversation also explores children who report past-life memories, how cases are investigated, what makes a case verifiable, why many children stop talking about these memories in early childhood, and what long-term follow-up studies reveal. Skepticism, academic stigma, and why this research is gaining broader attention are also discussed.

What happens when the U.S. government secretly investigates psychic abilities for intelligence and national security? In this episode, Dale E. Graff, former CIA-linked scientist and director of the now-declassified STARGATE Project shares firsthand insight into the government's remote viewing and psychic spy program that operated for decades during the Cold War.

He discusses precognition, dream-state psi, consciousness beyond space and time, and why these phenomena challenged conventional science. This conversation explores what STARGATE actually did, why it was shut down, what skeptics misunderstand, and what this research suggests about human consciousness, intuition, and survival beyond death.

Near-Life Experiences, Trauma, and Spiritual Awakening | Justin L. Shaw (Episode 165) What happens when a life-altering moment forces you to confront trauma, mortality, and meaning all at once? In this episode, Justin L. Shaw explores near-life experiences, trauma, and spiritual awakening. Unlike near-death experiences, a near-life experience occurs when someone comes face-to-face with death without crossing over—and must integrate the psychological, emotional, and spiritual impact while still fully alive. Justin shares how trauma, addiction, and recovery became catalysts for awakening, how altered states of consciousness reshape identity and purpose, and why healing is rarely linear.
