Podcasts about interspecies communication

Author and shamanic researcher SunBôw TrueBrother explores whether Sasquatch (aka Bigfoot) are humanity's closest relatives, and what forbidden Grand Canyon tunnels, ancient civilizations, and interdimensional beings may reveal about our forgotten origins in episode 249 of the Far Out with Faust podcast.SunBôw TrueBrother is a French-Canadian author, shamanic practitioner, and founder of SCENIC (Sasquatch Close Encounter Network for Interspecies Communication). After decades studying with indigenous elders across North and South America and Australia, he became known for the internationally translated Sasquatch Message to Humanity series. The books explore Sasquatch, interdimensional communication, indigenous wisdom, human origins, and humanity's relationship with non-human intelligence through teachings attributed to the Sasquatch Elder Kamooh.In this conversation, Faust and SunBôw explore why indigenous oral traditions have long preserved stories of Star People, interspecies communication, and non-human intelligence that challenge conventional ideas about human history. Drawing on the Sasquatch Genome Project, decades of shamanic experience, and teachings attributed to the Sasquatch Elder Kamooh, they explore a possibility most mainstream researchers never seriously consider: that humanity's story may be far older, stranger, and more interconnected than we've been taught. The discussion also ventures into forbidden archaeology, hidden civilizations, and the possibility that consciousness itself plays a larger role in human evolution than modern science is prepared to acknowledge.In this episode:• The Sasquatch Genome Project: The controversial DNA study of Bigfoot that mainstream science refuses to accept.• Forbidden Archaeology & Smithsonian Secrets: Hidden Grand Canyon chambers, Smithsonian involvement, and the century-old mystery that refuses to disappear.• Sipapu & The Place of Emergence: What did Hopi elders say exists beneath one of the most mysterious locations in the American Southwest?• The Ant People & Earth's First Caretakers: Why indigenous traditions continue to speak of a mysterious race beneath the Earth.• Reptilians & Ancient Lineages: Are the reptilians of ancient traditions villains, misunderstood ancestors, or something else entirely?• Telepathy & The Seven Grandfather Teachings: The surprising role Sasquatch play in one indigenous wisdom tradition.• Moon Anomalies & Hidden Structures: Claims of non-human activity and one of the strangest objects in our solar system.• Star People & Human Hybridization: Could humanity's origins be more complex than modern history suggests?• Archons & The Parasite Class: Are humanity's systems broken, or functioning exactly as intended?• The Great Awakening & Human Sovereignty: Caretakers, conquerors, and the growing divide between two very different futures.• Earth's Hidden History: Ancient ruins, lost civilizations, and the possibility that far more of our past remains undiscovered than we've been told.The deeper the conversation goes, the less it becomes a story about Sasquatch — and the more it becomes a question of what humanity may have forgotten about itself.Check out SunBôw's booksThe Sasquatch Message to Humanity: Conversations with Elder Kamooh https://a.co/d/0ehDVsODThe Sasquatch Message to Humanity Book 2: Interdimensional Teachings from our Eldershttps://a.co/d/02nLlPL2The Sasquatch Message to Humanity Book 3: Earth Ambassadors Cooperationhttps://a.co/d/02CdueLVConnect with SunBôw TrueBrotherhttps://scenicsasquatch.com/https://www.facebook.com/scenicsasquatch/Join us on PatreonFor uncensored episodes, behind-the-scenes content, and exclusive community access:https://patreon.com/FarOutWithFaustListen on Spotify + Apple PodcastsSpotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/6StPwgq2di3f8uxnc6SmIfApple: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/far-out-with-faust-fowf/id1533017218FOWF & Faust Checho on socialhttps://www.instagram.com/faroutwithfaust/https://www.instagram.com/theonefaustchecho/https://www.facebook.com/Faroutwithfausthttps://x.com/faustchechohttps://patreon.com/FarOutWithFaustQUESTION THE ANSWERS™we'd love to hear from you

One of the themes in my new novel, “The Sound of Life,” is interspecies communication—not in a Doctor Doolittle kind of way—that's silly—but in a more fundamental way, using protocols that involve far more listening on our part than speaking. The ability to communicate with other species has long been a dream among scientists, although as I observed in an earlier Podcast episode, we might not be pleased with what other species have to say to us. But that aside, I find it pretty exciting that we're on the bleeding edge of being able to engage in a form of two-way communication with other species. So, in this episode, I want to tell you a bit about where we are, and why 2026 is widely believed to be the year we make contact.

What if our pets are communicating complex ideas—and technology is finally catching up? In this episode of the Shifting Schools Podcast, cognitive scientist and FluentPet founder Leo Trottier joins us to explore how breakthroughs in animal cognition, inter-species communication, and speech-button interfaces are reshaping the way humans understand pets. Trottier unpacks the science behind communication-enhancing tools for animals, drawing from research in cognitive psychology, comparative cognition, and linguistics to explain how dogs and cats may be expressing needs, feelings, and even intentions. He also discusses how this emerging field could deepen human–animal bonds, strengthen empathy, and influence the future of animal welfare and education. Listeners will learn: How cognitive science informs FluentPet's design What behavioral research reveals about dogs' communicative abilities Why emotional connection with animals supports childhood empathy development The ethical and rights-based implications of interspecies dialogue How next-generation technology could expand communication across species Perfect for educators, future-focused parents, animal lovers, and anyone curious about the intersection of science, empathy, and emerging technology.

Can AI help us better understand animals and, if it could, what might we discover? This week's episode was recorded live at the 2025 Masters of Scale Summit where Reid and Aria sat down with Aza Raskin, co-founder and CEO of the Earth Species Project. Aza and his team are using AI to decode the languages and cultures of non-human species. From dolphins that invent new tricks together to crows that raise each other's young in communal “villages,” Aza reveals the startling complexity of animal communication and what it teaches us about our own. During the course of their conversation, Reid, Aria and Aza explore why recognizing the intelligence of the animal kingdom might spark a new Copernican Revolution, one that changes not just science, but who we believe ourselves as a species to be. It's a thought provoking journey through language, empathy, and the limits of human perspective that will make you listen to the natural world a little differently.

Penelope Smith is an absolute pioneer in interspecies telepathic communication. Since the 1970s she has had a knack for seeing the unseen connections between humans and animals. As the charming 'grandmother' of this field, Penelope has trained countless animal communicators worldwide and boasts an impressive social media following of over 20,000 passionate animal lovers. Penelope believes that we all have this innate ability to chat with other species—it just needs a little nudge and nurturing. Our conversation today highlights the importance of recognizing animals as conscious beings with whom we share a spiritual bond. Our discussion delves into the transformative power of telepathic communication with animals, illustrating how such connections can illuminate the path to deeper self-awareness and healing. Through personal anecdotes and shared experiences, we reveal how animals guide and support us throughout our lives, often acting as catalysts for personal growth and spiritual awakening. This episode invites listeners to reflect on their relationships with their animal companions, encouraging a reconnection with the natural world and the wisdom it offers. Join us as we uncover the richness of interspecies communication and its potential to enhance our understanding of ourselves and the universe around us.Takeaways: Interspecies communication is a profound connection recognizing animals as spiritual beings, enriching our lives. The disconnection from nature and animals can lead to mental illness and a lack of support. Telepathic communication with animals opens a spiritual journey, awakening deeper consciousness within us. Animal communication emphasizes the need for humans to listen and respect the wisdom of other beings.

In this episode, we chat with Sydney Kuppenbender, a Métis-Ukrainian-French Canadian researcher and environmental advocate from rural Northern Saskatchewan. Sydney's powerful vision for the future of the environmental sector emphasizes the need for animals and the land to be consulted as equals in conservation and land management processes.Sydney recently completed her Master's degree in Environment and Sustainability at the University of Saskatchewan, where her research focused on the role of intuitive interspecies communication (IIC) in wildlife conservation and human-animal conflict resolution. Her work beautifully intertwines her Indigenous roots with modern conservation science, offering a fresh perspective on how we can better understand and respect the spiritual and relational connections we share with animals.In this episode, Sydney takes us through her journey of discovering IIC, the challenges and breakthroughs of working alongside animal communicators, and how her research can shift the paradigm in conservation practices. She shares powerful stories from her research, including a case where an animal communicator was called in to help with the relocation (which can often be very complex, challenging and even dangerous) of elephants. Join us as we explore how asking the right questions, and truly listening to the answers, can help foster a more harmonious relationship between humans and the natural world.Listen now to hear Sydney's inspiring journey and her vision for a more inclusive and compassionate approach to environmental conservation.For more information, visit Sydney's:Website at https://www.sydneykuppenbender.ca/ Instagram account at https://www.instagram.com/borealiskwiw/LinkedIn account at https://www.linkedin.com/in/sydney-kuppenbender-596b22b3/She also mentions Indigenous Elder Copper Jack's work in this episode.

Dr. Shane Gero, a visionary marine biologist, is angling to crack the code of sperm whale communication. His mind-bending research is transforming what we thought we knew about these ancient leviathans. It's calling on us to embrace the reality that perhaps we've long suspected: Sperm whales are living meaningful, intelligent and complex lives whose cultures suggest that whales are people too. What can whale culture teach us, and can deep listening help us learn to coexist respectfully in kinship with these guardians of the deep? Featuring Shane Gero, Ph.D., is a Canadian whale biologist, Scientist-in-Residence at Ottawa's Carleton University, and a National Geographic Explorer. He is the founder of The Dominica Sperm Whale Project and the Biology Lead for Project CETI.

In Interspecies Communication: Sound and Music Beyond Humanity (U Chicago Press, 2024), music scholar Gavin Steingo examines significant cases of attempted communication beyond the human--cases in which the dualistic relationship of human to non-human is dramatically challenged. From singing whales to Sun Ra to searching for alien life, Steingo charts the many ways we have attempted to think about, and indeed to reach, beings that are very unlike ourselves. Steingo focuses on the second half of the twentieth century, when scientists developed new ways of listening to oceans and cosmic space--two realms previously inaccessible to the senses and to empirical investigation. As quintessential frontiers of the postwar period, the outer space of the cosmos and the inner space of oceans were conceptualized as parallel realities, laid bare by newly technologized "ears." Deeply engaging, Interspecies Communication explores our attempts to cross the border between the human and non-human, to connect with non-humans in the depths of the oceans, the far reaches of the universe, or right under our own noses. Gavin Steingo is Professor in the Department of Music at Princeton University. He is also affiliated with the programs in Media and Modernity, African Studies, and Jazz Studies. Steingo's research examines sound and music as fundamental features in the construction of global modernity, with research specializations in African music, sound studies, acoustic ecology, and music and philosophy. Methodologically, his work is united by a mode of inquiry where theory, history, and ethnography form part of a shared constellation. Learn more about your ad choices.

In Interspecies Communication: Sound and Music Beyond Humanity (U Chicago Press, 2024), music scholar Gavin Steingo examines significant cases of attempted communication beyond the human--cases in which the dualistic relationship of human to non-human is dramatically challenged. From singing whales to Sun Ra to searching for alien life, Steingo charts the many ways we have attempted to think about, and indeed to reach, beings that are very unlike ourselves. Steingo focuses on the second half of the twentieth century, when scientists developed new ways of listening to oceans and cosmic space--two realms previously inaccessible to the senses and to empirical investigation. As quintessential frontiers of the postwar period, the outer space of the cosmos and the inner space of oceans were conceptualized as parallel realities, laid bare by newly technologized "ears."

Sarah shares how the 8 Shields Design Principles can be seen as a map to our our original design of interconnectedness, and as Jon Young often says, to our ‘ancient nervous system'.First through the lens of the senses, Sarah explains how we process information from our environment, and presences the drastic shift in what our senses experience in modern times versus the purity of Nature that we evolved with over millions of years. The effects on our well being become apparent when we consider our neurobiological responses to external stimuli, and our need for physiological homeostasis to live with health and happiness.Secondly, Sarah shares about humans as innately social beings, and how our evolutionary success is in large part to cooperation and coordination with other humans for safety, food security, and division of labor. Our nervous systems are wired for safe social engagement for survival, and what we experience in modern family and social systems is in dire contrast to what our nervous system is reaching for.Using the 8 Shields as a map, we can take inventory of our sensory and relational experience to see where we are on the journey back to our original design.About Sarah FontaineSarah is a Energy work Practitioner, Wildlife Tracker, and Interspecies Communicator.For over 25 years, Sarah has been practicing various healing modalities including Chakra-work, Craniosacral Therapy, Traditional Chinese Medicine Meridians and Five Elements, Emotional Clearing, Interpersonal Neurobiology, Somatic Trauma Therapy, and Polyvagal Theory.She has studied wildlife tracking through Shikari Tracker Mentoring with Jon Young and Josh Lane, Tom Brown Jr's Tracker School, and Cybertracker Conservation.

Dr. Shane Gero, a visionary marine biologist, is angling to crack the code of sperm whale communication. His mind-bending research is transforming what we thought we knew about these ancient leviathans. It's calling on us to embrace the reality that perhaps we've long suspected: Sperm whales are living meaningful, intelligent and complex lives whose cultures suggest that whales are people too. What can whale culture teach us, and can deep listening help us learn to coexist respectfully in kinship with these guardians of the deep?  Featuring Shane Gero, Ph.D., is a Canadian whale biologist, Scientist-in-Residence at Ottawa's Carleton University, and a National Geographic Explorer. He is the founder of The Dominica Sperm Whale Project and the Biology Lead for Project CETI. His science appears in numerous magazines, books, and television; and most recently was the basis for the Emmy Award winning series, Secrets of the Whales. Learn more at shanegero.com.

Today I'm joined by Reverend Jay Waxenberg, an interfaith minister and spiritual counselor at Boulder's Center for Medicinal Mindfulness. In this episode, Jay talks about how his interest in understanding reality as a boy led to his study of consciousness, his exploration of psychedelics, and his introduction to spirituality. We then talk about Ram Dass and the lessons Jay learned from Dass on his own journey. Next, we discuss best practices for psychedelic harm reduction and how psychedelics can be integrated with other spiritual practices. From there, we talk about the difficulties associated with conducting research on psychedelics due to their Schedule I substance designation, and how that has impacted Jay's work in the DMTx research project. We end the discussion talking about Medicinal Mindfulness and the help they're providing for spiritual explorers looking to safely work with psychedelics.

Scientific research into the ocean and ocean floor is based on what we can exploit from the ocean. Yet, science is also unveiling the possibility as to where ‘ocean mind’ resides. Some researchers believe that bacteria in ocean sediments are connected by a network of microbial nanowires. These fine protein filaments could shuttle electrons back and forth, allowing communities of bacteria to act as one giant super-organism. In James Cameron’s movie Avatar, the inhabitants, the Na'vi people of Pandora, plug themselves into a neural network that links to all the elements of Pandora’s biosphere, from phosphorescent plants to pterodactyl-like birds. It turns out that Pandora's interconnected ecosystem may have a parallel back here on our planet: sulphur-eating bacteria that live in muddy sediments beneath the ocean floor, as a tightly coupled living mat or network. Going back 4 billion years where bacteria have been living in the ocean and creating the conditions for life to prosper on our planet – evolving the conditions for multi cellular life to eventually we humans. There is emerging evidence that bacteria in the oceans form massive mats connected with things called nanowires. These nanowires allow the bacteria to breathe externally from their bodies – so it is collective breathing – and that they could be connecting as a neural network – so it is possible that the ocean floor is a vast neural network or ocean mind, with deep thought – 10,000 years of thought process that we humans may only take a couple of seconds to grok. What kind of thoughts might the ocean be having?   We are finding out that we live on a planet that is alive and that the ocean is a living being. Hence James Lovelock’s Gaia Theory that our planet is gigantic super living organism.  Here is the original Our Planet description posted on the world wide web in 1996. http://www.ourplanet.org/original-site/gaia.html     It’s only in the last 60 years has man created the tools to look around underwater – with masks, oxygen tanks and more lately bathyspheres. As we become more sensitive and knowing, immersing ourselves into the sea and becoming one with the marine environment and ecology - makes it possible to dissolve into a greater knowing of the ocean - to osmotically take in information. To address the big oceanic issues, in Glenn’s opinion - it’s about addressing our own personal relationship. Western civilisation including we here in NZ have over the years become more distant and separated from nature. We have in numerous ways become disengaged from natural processes and from our planet as a whole. Note NCEA -the National Certificate of Educational Achievement in high schools in NZ that they do not teach ecology. It is not part of the curriculum. Thus students are leaving school not realising that they are an intrinsic part of the web of life within the biosphere. Now we know why the young are disconnected – they are being deliberately severed from our planet. Whereas Maori children in many cases intuitively understand they are an extension of Papatuanuku, our planet.   This interview covers: The International Union for Conservation of Nature recently passing a resolution to protect 30% of the world’s oceans by 2030  At this meeting 129 countries or 89%  said yes – and signed. But 29 countries said NO. And 35 abstained from voting. Note that ‘Clean Green’ NZ was one of the countries that abstained. That NZ could not in this time of declining fisheries and in an ecologically challenged world, mindfully look at this  important 30% protection, particularly for our children and grandchildren’s future, gives us cause for concern Yet, in Antarctica 24 countries and the European Union agreed to protect 1.5 million square  kilometres of the Ross Sea - the largest marine protected area on our planet, so far. 1 million square ks will be a ‘no take’ marine reserve. This is worth celebrating. Yet it is set to expire in 35 years time. Why? The NZ administered Kermadec Ocean Sanctuary will be possibly the 4th largest protected marine reserve on earth. Covering 620,000 square kilometres, and the most significant of a fully protected area. It will be 35 times larger than the combined area of all of New Zealand’s existing 44 marine reserves. The following activities will be prohibited in the sanctuary:      commercial fishing and aquaculture recreational fishing fishing-related tourism oil, gas and mineral prospecting, exploration and mining. This is similar to prohibitions in place in marine reserves in our NZ territorial sea. Challenges to our Oceans Military testing sonar and microwave tech, even passing through some of these reserves!  Plus electromagnetic energy that ships emit. These have been correlated to whale strandings and more science is needed? Covering Professor Daniel Pauly of Canada – who says that there is no fishery on our planet that we could consider as sustainable. In 2004 he came to NZ and mentioned that we need to lock up 25% of our fishing grounds so as to rebuild up our fish stocks. He was criticised vehemently by commercial fishing interests here in NZ, but remains focused and undeterred. In NZ, DOC, the Department of Conservation care for many offshore islands that are prohibited for humans to land on and they could in turn be extended to include fishing reserves around each island. So as to build up fish colonies again and create a “no take” marine reserve. The ancient Hawaiians had an understanding that from the mountain top, down the valleys onto the beach into the water to the reef and out beyond the reef as one living holistic system. They did not partition nature. Loss of NZ’s Endangered Maui Dolphin? There is a belief with ocean ecologists that we are going to lose the Maui dolphins to extinction, because the NZ Government has no will to change the current situation.  (34 minutes into the interview ) cut out before we email). Possibly only 44 are alive today. They are found  along the West Coast of the central North Island from Northern Taranaki in the South to Northland, just South of Opononi. In June 2014, the government decided to open up 3000 km2 of the West Coast North Island Marine Mammal Sanctuary – the main habitat of the Maui's dolphin – for oil drilling. This amounts to one-quarter of the total sanctuary area. In May 2015, estimates suggested that the population had declined to 43-47 individuals, of which only 10 were mature females. Set netting in particular is seen as very problematic. The Maui dolphin is becoming a very charged emotional issue in NZ as it appears that we could lose them whilst on our watch, possibly by 2025 or 2030. In a country that brands itself as Clean & Green, if we lose the Maui’s dolphin this will be a disaster from the standpoint of lack of mindfulness and the precautionary principle. To add insult to this loss it would affect the Maori people, as it will be a slap in their collective face, as their oral history tells of the God Maui, fishing up the North Island (Te Ika O Maui) out of the sea. This loss would be devastating for both Maori and New Zealanders as a whole.   https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maui%27s_dolphin Government Changing the Rules. At present the NZ Government is taking away from DOC, the Department of Conservation many decision making processes and handing them over to the Department of Primary Industries, because DPI is more of a commercial concern, based around monetary policies. This is where the government, our elected political servants are taking their own Agenda. We as a people, need to instruct our government to do our bidding to enable 10% of our coastline to be designated as marine reserves and become far more informed. Here in Aotearoa NZ the Te Urewera Park and the Whanganui River have been designated as having special privileges and rights. This was Government sanctioned and is an exceptionally visionary policy. If it can be done on the land (whenua) then it can be accomplished on the ocean (moana). http://www.ourplanet.org/articles/new-zealand-government-acknowledges-a-river-as-a-living-entity-and-a-park-as-having-human-rights#at_pco=smlrebv-1.0&at_si=5819316157fd1305&at_ab=per-2&at_pos=0&at_tot=1 Interspecies Communication? Whales and Dolphin communication. By acoustics and sonar is covered. The www. - World Whale Web of Sperm whales connecting by clicks at deep ocean levels across the Pacific and deep levels.    Telepathy and possibilities of instant connection with large brain mammals?   Changing and cleaning up our oceans and our possible future. We once had pristine oceans?    Prior to the 17th century. Will we (among our numerous and mounting challenges) realise our connection to the planet that loans us bodies, free air, free water and a free food chain? As oceans bear the brunt of wastewater, from our homes and from sinks and bathtubs, to pipes, drains, creeks, streams and rivers all eventually find their way to the ocean. One way or another. As we humans are composed of around 70% water and our bloodstream is about 3.5% salt - why have humans disconnected from our oceans? When in NZ the bulk of NZers are only 100 kilometres or less from the ocean. Today, ocean plastic is outnumbering plankton 6 to one. That is correct - In certain areas of the ocean, specifically the subtropical gyres, micro plastic pieces outnumber plankton by 6 to 1. In other words, for every individual plankton there are 6 pieces of micro-plastic (micro-plastic being any plastic fragment smaller than 2 mm in diameter). Micro plastic can now be found in every part of the Ocean, even in Antarctica, and on the ocean floor. The majority has already sunk below the surface and out of our reach the only answer to stop this plastic onslaught from continuing is to stop putting plastic into the ocean. Most of today’s challenges are extremely recent - especially in the last 70 years exponential acceleration and has grown across the whole realm of industry from products to pollution has escalated and the ocean is taking this all in. Including the nuclear radiation from Fukushima in Japan, that the world’s media and scientists remain tight lipped about. Humanity has much to do in a very small window of time. The imperative is to connect with other people in your locality and voice your needs to commit to organise. Write letters and phone you local MP and speak to them, either on the phone but better still with a small delegation of 4 or 5 of you and your friends. Let your Member of Parliament know your vote counts. Glens web site: http://www.oceanspirit.org
