Podcasts about Luana

This is an edited podcast from 2024 where we spoke to the recently departed film producer Fred Roos. A close friend to Luana Anders, our moderator on the flipside, Jennifer had no idea who we were interviewing until midway through the podcast.  Fred had messages for many of his close friends, and in one instance I was able to pass that message along at his funeral. In this podcast, he has a message for Sophia and Francis Coppola, his long time pals, as well as Harrison Ford who's career he started. At his funeral Harrison said "Without Fred I wouldn't be here." Also a number of other people show up, including his pal Harry Dean Stanton (a skeptic and atheists whom Jennifer and I interviewed when he crossed over.) There are appearances by many people Fred knew, including Penny Marshall, Cindy Williams, also Aretha Franklin and Christopher Reeves. We do this podcast to show that anyone can speak to their loved ones offstage. It just so happens that I knew Fred Roos for four decades, and met him in his office at Zoetrope back in the day. We stayed pals over the years, he was always kind and generous with me - and he was a huge pal to Robert Towne and Luana Anders as well as Jack Nicholson. None of these names in this podcast are "name dropping" when we're talking to the source. These were all friends of his, and I have met most of them - including the one he references - the reincarnation of James Dean. Fred worked with this person, and while we don't mention the name - because the person whom Jennifer and I both interviewed for hours - knows that they are the reincarnation of James Dean, have known that their whole lives - but chooses not to share it with people. Like I say, this is another of the Best Of podcasts that we've done. (Jennifer is currently swamped with clients and folks who need her help.) Enjoy.

Num 'Irritações' a três, o programa recebe Joana Stichini Vilela, que se mostra chateada com o que considera como a 'glorificação do ocupismo', ou as pessoas que têm "o prazer de estar sempre a fazer alguma coisa": "Já eu odeio estar tão ocupada e sinto mesmo que estou a falhar na vida. (...) Parece que se tornou mal visto estares desocupado, e isso irrita-me". José de Pina 'deita o olho' ao universo de supermercados nacionais, para afirmar: "Nós agora vamos às lojas e parece que estamos num zoológico. As garrafas de vinho é só com bicharada. Como é que vai tudo afunilar no mesmo?", lamenta. Já Luana do Bem deixa críticas a quem consegue fazer obras em casa sem ter um mínimo de compreensão pelos restantes vizinhos. Com moderação de Pedro Boucherie Mendes. O Irritações foi emitido a 20 de fevereiro, na SIC Radical. * A sinopse deste episódio foi criada com o apoio de IASee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Para que serve, afinal, a Constituição de um país? O politólogo Pedro Magalhães e a humorista Luana do Bem mergulham na lei fundamental dos Estados e conversam sobre a diversidade de práticas constitucionais, de Portugal à Índia.A Constituição portuguesa celebra 50 anos. Mas sabia que, antes da democracia, o país já tinha conhecido cinco textos constitucionais? Neste episódio, exploram-se as regras e os direitos que encontramos habitualmente numa Constituição, bem como os seus propósitos e limites.Longe de ser um mero exercício técnico, a Constituição reflete um consenso sobre o modo de organização e os valores de uma sociedade. É por isso que na Assembleia Constituinte de 1975 encontramos deputados que são juristas, mas também operários e poetas.Num momento em que se volta a falar em revisão constitucional, mais de 20 anos depois da última, Pedro Magalhães e Luana do Bem refletem sobre as vantagens e desvantagens de ter uma lei fundamental permeável à mudança.Pelo caminho, ficamos a saber quais são os poderes do Tribunal Constitucional, como são escolhidos os seus juízes e as várias razões pelas quais uma lei pode ser inconstitucional.Porque a Constituição é o que dita as regras do jogo democrático, e não um mero texto formal, este é um episódio [IN]Pertinente que não pode perder.LINKS E REFERÊNCIAS ÚTEIS:Constituição da República PortuguesaElkins, Z., Ginsburg, T., & Melton, J. «The endurance of national constitutions» (Cambridge University, 2009)Tavares, J.

Something a little different - I took three podcasts and cut them together - so there are no seques or the usual introductions or conversational tidbits we normally do. I've got so much of these, and this is an hour taken from three different podcasts. One includes Prince and Brian Wilson, along with Aretha Franklin, Jimi Hendrix... then one with my concert pianist mother Anthy with Beethoven, Shakespeare stops by to talk about music in the afterlife and attending performances of his music... Will Shakespeare does the same - and finally conversations with John McCain (Maverick) JFK, RFK and Whitney Houston.   All of it mind bending - but Jennifer and I just stopped by the studios of Gaia and did a live session where Jennifer spoke to, learned new information from Amelia Earhart - and that will take awhile before it airs. Let me know in the comments if this is something folks want me to do - excerpt some of the podcasts so we can use the highlights.

A radialista Inês Nogueira é a convidada do programa desta semana, com a jovem a reclamar de todos aqueles que lhe apontam o dedo, com acusações de que tem "paladar infantil": "Irritam-me estas pessoas que insistem para que eu esteja sempre a provar coisas. Porque é que não podem estar sossegadas?", questiona. Luís Pedro Nunes 'vai' até ao Superbowl e às questões do polymarket, para deixar avisos sobre a bitcoin, com José de Pina a alertar sobre Bad Bunny, mas também a reclamar dos cacifos lockys. Ainda dentro do evento de futebol norte-americano, Luana do Bem diz não entender as pessoas que valorizaram, em demasia, a atuação do artista de Porto-Rico: "Eu gosto de Bad Bunny mas não entendo. Aliás as pessoas adoraram a performance porque foram ler a história, que na realidade aquilo não se percebia".

Mais um episódio de 'Irritações' e, desta vez, com Ana Bacalhau - assumida fã do programa - como convidada. A conhecida cantora diz estar cada vez mais irritada com as pessoas que vão chorar para as redes sociais, de forma pensada: "É uma manipulação emocional que me irrita porque a ação não é natural. Para mim é uma falta de pudor muito grande". Luana do Bem volta aos lugares de estacionamento e às pessoas que não sabem usar um guarda-chuva, com José de Pina a deixar críticas aos 'malucos' da comida super saudável: "Tudo naquela alimentação é questionável e é um problema". Já Luís Pedro Nunes fala sobre o fenómeno das filas em Portugal, que geralmente impressiona os estrangeiros.

Jennifer and I are getting ready to film a segment at Beyond Belief about all the research regarding Amelia Earhart - so I pulled this file from three years ago to demonstrate that every time Amelia Earhart shows up - she's outside of time as we understand it. Can answer questions about her path and journey - even when I repeat the same questions years apart. For thos familiar with the book SHE WAS NEVER LOST: THE AMELIA EARHART SAGA - it was 40 years ago when I started researching her life and journey. It was 30 years ago when I tried to direct a feature film with my friend Rebecca Broussard, who could have been her twin at the time.  Film director Phillip Noyce was going to produce - but for whatever reason, it didn't get off the runway.  However, the story kept coming back to me in various ways - and finally I decided to put together all the research, including a trip to Saipan in 2013 where I found 15 new eyewitnesses to her story - including US Marines who found her Electra on Aslito airfield, who guarded it, watched it test flown and then watched as the military decided to "get it out of the way." And earlier version of the govt covering something up and then pretending for decades that they didn't find it - didn't fly it - didn't recover her briefcase with her passports, maps and charts.  She was never "lost" - the US knew where she was, but because they learned it via the secret codes of the Japanese, they couldn't reveal that they knew. The Japanese knew where she was - and was likely hoping to use her in some fashion, but never got to.  So Jennifer and I are going to talk about her on Gaia, on the Beyond Belief show - and go over the two aspects of getting this story told - the details of forensic research, as well as the details from the Flipside - some of the more incredible clues that she put in front of us to tell her story in a way that's never been told before. The sound is a little screwy - I was on the road at the time we did this podcast, so apologies to those who are tuning in on the car radio - but it is what it is.   Thanks for tuning in!

Jennifer Shaffer is a medium/intuitive who works with members of law enforcement nationwide, including agents from the FBI, NYPD and LAPD. We met ten years ago and began a conversation that has continued undaunted onto this podcast.   I'm a filmmaker, author who has written 13 books about the afterlife, Jennifer and I met up ten years ago and have been meeting weekly ever since.  We have four books together BACKSTAGE PASS TO THE FLIPSIDE 1, 2, 3 and TUNING INTO THE AFTERLIFE. Jennifer has been instrumental in helping me to get information from people offstage - including #AmeliaEarhart and the book #SheWasNeverLost - the Amelia Earhart saga. In today's podcast we talk to someone that Jennifer didn't know when he was on the planet, but has met and works with members of his family.  In our podcast, he refers to someone who saw him many years ago - someone whom I knew who worked with him.   Upon further reflection, I'm not sure if he was referring to my friend or not - but either way, I knew who Jennifer was referring to.  Steve wanted to speak about AI - and argue that it's not something to fear but something that will enhance the ability of people to think at a faster rate. We talked about the value and pitfalls of that - and he's arguing that people can use it as a tool that it's meant to be used as.   I asked some questions about #Parkinsons (and the show "Shrinking which had an episode about it) as well as my old USC professor the late Coleman Hough who had Parkinsons and appears in the film HACKING THE AFTERLIFE where it vanishes during her six hour interview. We talked about how that is or why that happened, and then talk about the idea that "filters on the brain" (see Dr. Greysons book AFTER pg 125 or DIVINE COUNCILS IN THE AFTERLIFE for a discussion of the research into filters on the brain) might be something to examine, look into as science tries to cure Parkinsons. We reiterate we're asking questions, not giving any medical advice - not medical advice is implied or suggested or given.  However, when talking about the brain and the research involved with looking for "filters on the brain" and how it is that Jennifer's brain is in a "delta state" during her sessions (as proven by MRI's that she has done on camera, and the same results were demonstrated via Dr. Drew and Tyler Henry's MRIs.)  That people who do this kind of mediumship MAY BE stepping past those filters - and that doing so on a daily basis may help or heal parts of the brain. That's the general discussion and we do these discussions to inspire people to do their own. Hope this helps. 

Nova semana e um novo convidado para o 'Irritações'. O programa recebe o TikToker 'DevEats', que tem somado sucesso nas redes sociais, e que aqui surge aborrecido com a expressão "não leves a mal, mas...", que diz ser uma 'bengala' espécie "cinto de segurança antes de um acidente", ao ser usada para as pessoas que querem "dizer mal mas sair impunes". José de Pina fala sobre a atual 'propaganda da saúde' em termos do que traz mais ou menos longevidade, e aproveita para anotar: "Jogging no meio do trânsito é do pior que há, as pessoas só inspiram poluição. Como é que há quem ainda o faça?". Luís Pedro Nunes fala sobre a altura dos portugueses e o 'estigma' em assumirem que são "dos mais baixos da Europa", com Luana do Bem a comentar sobre viagens de Uber.

Mundial com Luana, festejar conquistas, primeira semana de gravações - Fora da Lei #276 by Tiago Almeida

As usual, another mind bending session. It begins with a visit from Kobe, who mentions some of the work that Jennifer has been doing with his family.  I asked him some questions about his observations of watching NBA players, and he says he plays an active role in terms of helping those who are open to it. He called his "council" his "line up" - the team that we all have that help us when we're navigating the stage. He said he's more likely to work with coaches than individual players. Luana then brought forward JFK jr and Carolyn Bessette Kennedy - whom we've had a brief chat with before, but this time it's a little more indepth.  Asking him what it was like to cross over to the flipside, he said he was someone who didn't know where he was for awhile.. and then his mother brought him that awareness.  I asked him some questions about his opinion of the current administration and he couldn't stop laughing. John McCain (Maverick) stopped by as JFK Jr said he was one of the people who surprised him on the other side - as it wasn't someone he'd have conversed with on the planet, but offstage they were able to talk about John's incarceration and aspects of that part of his journey.  In terms of speaking to Carolyn about who she was surprised to meet on the other side, a question I often ask people, she said she was surprised to meet with Oprah's "higher self." We only bring a portion of our conscious energy to a lifetime - based on the reports - and a larger portion of "who we are" is always "back home." So that included some unusual questions to "Oprah's higher self" about her path and journey and what advice she might give to people listening in. All of it mind bending. But it's what we've been doing for years now, and about six years on our podcast. Enjoy.

Em Portugal, quais são as funções do Presidente da República? É um cargo meramente simbólico ou influencia decisivamente os destinos do país? Na sua estreia como dupla, o politólogo Pedro Magalhães e a humorista Luana do Bem explicam-lhe tudo o que ainda não sabe sobre o chefe de Estado, que é também Comandante Supremo das Forças Armadas e guardião da Constituição. Há quem julgue que o Presidente só atribui condecorações – e atribui muitas –, mas há muitas outras áreas em que assume um papel fundamental. Ao promulgar e vetar leis e decretos-leis da Assembleia da República e do Governo, participa ativamente nas políticas públicas do país. Além disso, o Presidente pode fazer uso da chamada ‘bomba atómica', isto é, decidir dissolver a Assembleia da República. Mas sabia que há um «poder secreto» que não vem na Constituição? E o que distingue o semipresidencialismo português do francês? Há sistemas melhores do que outros?Nesta conversa, Luana do Bem e Pedro Magalhães analisam ainda as características do primeiro e segundo mandatos de um Presidente, como funcionam a 1ª e a 2ª voltas e as tendências de participação do eleitorado português. Em tempo de escolhas, não perca este episódio [IN]Pertinente.REFERÊNCIAS E LINKS ÚTEISCOSTA PINTO, António e FREIRE, André, «O Poder Presidencial em Portugal» (D.

Guilherme Fonseca é o convidado do programa desta semana, com o humorista a mostrar-se irritado com o que considera ser o "excesso de Cândido Costa" no audiovisual português. Apesar de, como diz, adorar o entretainer, garante: "Como o nosso país é pequenino, acho mesmo que estamos numa overdose de Cândido, porque ele está em todo o lado - é programas, é marcas. Ele precisa de descansar". Luana do Bem reclama de lugares de estacionamento apertados, e culpa a sociedade que quis apostar, cada vez mais, em carros grandes, com Luís Pedro Nunes a discutir o fenómeno do clube 'Cascais', da sexta divisão da Liga, mas que é estrela na América Latina: "Irrita-me porque é um roleplay, não me venham dizer que há ligação ao clube".

Nach einem turbulenten, aber schönen Dezember und zurück aus Genua und Berlin starten wir langsam wieder ins neue (Buchhandlungs-)Jahr. In dieser Zeit wurde bereits die eine oder andere Neuerscheinung gelesen. Luana vermutet sogar, ihr mögliches Jahreshighlight schon gefunden zu haben. Die darauffolgenden Bücher hatten es entsprechend schwer, zu überzeugen, was diesen Titeln gegenüber vermutlich nicht ganz fair war. Natürlich sprechen wir auch über unser Folgenbuch, auch wenn nicht alle ihre Hausaufgaben gemacht haben. Mit viel Vorfreude blicken wir auf ein neues Jahr voller Bücher.

HERE'S A PODCAST FROM A YEAR AGO - 2025... LAST YEAR'S Happy New Year! Well no time like the present to kick off the new year with a mind bending podcast courtesy of Jennifer Shaffer and Rich Martini.  Jennifer's web page JenniferShaffer.com has links to her "Uncorked" events, or to book with her directly, RichardMartini.com is where one can book a guided meditation with Rich. So the other day in my kitchen (and I don't know why it's the case, but I sometimes get a message or feeling there that someone wants to talk to us) President Jimmy Carter popped into my head. It of course could have been because he'd just passed away - but I try not to judge why someone shows up, or if someone shows up.  I just leave it aside, and see what happens when we start the podcast. And as we often do, I left it up to our moderator on the Flipside, Luana Anders to suggest the topic for the day. And she told Jennifer: "Richard has someone who spoke to him yesterday." Which is accurate.  And just prior to the podcast - literally a minute before, I remembered that happened, and I looked up Jimmy on Wikipedia so at the very least I had some of his background correct. as it is - at some point I call the King of England before Elizabeth "Edward" when everyone knows that's not her father's name. But Jennifer didn't say his name - just pointed out that she was seeing him when Winston Churchill showed up. (For historians out there, the story of Winston sleeping in the White House and seeing a ghost is old news.) As noted, when over the past ten years we have someone Presidential show up (We've had all chats with Hoover, FDR, Truman, JFK, Nixon, Reagan, Bush Sr.. and folks associated with the Presidency - Abe Lincoln, Mary Todd Lincoln, Andrew Jackson, RFK, John McCain - those interviews are in the books BACKSTAGE PASS TO THE FLIPSIDE (books 1, 2 and 3). Some of them are searchable on the podcast - Abe, JFK, RFK, etc... but it wasn't surprising what Jimmy said about seeing Reagan on the flipside, how McCain stopped by - and the legions of people who loved him were there to greet him. Interesting that he said Rosalyn was "with him" frequency wise - he spoke about the regrets he had from his life (associated with war) and the things he was proudest of.  I asked him a question about a film project I've been working on - something only he would know about, the land case in Maine.  Fun to hear him say it's a story "that should be told." He also talked briefly about people off planet - since he saw a UFO back in 1969, and says that the kinds of work they're doing are benevolent... nothing to fear.  The same kind of things I've heard in the research behind CLOSE ENCOUNTERS OF THE FLIPSIDE KIND.  We asked him who he was surprised to see - and he mentioned Winston Churchill and Elvis - who was friends with him. Paul Newman showed up - I wasn't aware of their friendship, but Jimmy talked about Paul's food charity work, and we asked Paul some questions about his journey, including what it was like to welcome his wife Joanne Woodward home.  (Joanne is still on the planet, but has Alzheimers - from the research, multiple conversations with people offstage, our loved ones who have dementia are "90% already home" - so it's normal for them to interact with each other.  As my friend's father Jack Tracey told us in his last weeks of being here, "It's like leaving a leg in the pool."  I didn't mean to imply she is gone - just was asking him what it was like to see her "higher self" on the flipside.) So while one is watching the nation mourn this President, while the nation has a funeral for him, honoring him and his service, be aware that he hasn't disappeared or is gone: he's just not here. Available. Like everyone is. Hope this helps. WE'LL BE BACK NEXT WEEK!

O programa desta semana conta com Rui Pedro Tendinha como convidado, com o especialista em cinema a lamentar a degradação das salas pelo país: "As pessoas não querem ir ao cinema com salas onde só cheira a comida, as cadeiras são más, onde há cada vez mais publicidade, não se respeitam os lugares.... O ambiente degradou-se". Luana do Bem fala das pessoas que dizem "sofrer mais que as outras", com críticas a quem tem esses comportamentos, com Luís Pedro Nunes a voltar a um dos temas que mais o irrita - comportamentos no ginásio. Já José de Pina, nas suas habituais atualizações, acaba por afirmar: "O ICE, nos Estados Unidos, quase que parece os loosers do ténis/padel: não têm capacidade para ir para o exército nem para serem seguranças de discoteca".

In this episode of the Expositors Collective podcast, Mike Neglia is joined by Shane Deane for a wide-ranging conversation on Puritan preaching, with particular attention to William Perkins' The Art of Prophesying and the Puritan emphasis on application.Rather than treating the Puritans as mere historical figures or quotable voices, this discussion explores how their preaching method remains deeply relevant for modern pastors. Shane helps unpack why clarity, structure, and especially wise application were central to Puritan preaching, and how these convictions can shape Christ-centred exposition today.The conversation also turns to the often-neglected practice of pastoral prayer in gathered worship, drawing on Puritan theology and practice to show why public prayer is not filler, but a vital act of shepherding the congregation before God.Topics CoveredShane's first sermon and how his preaching has developed over timeWhat first drew Shane to the Puritans and their preaching methodThe danger of treating the Puritans as “quote machines”William Perkins' The Art of Prophesying, with a focus on Chapter 6The fourfold Puritan preaching pattern:Reading the textExplaining its meaningDrawing out doctrineApplying truth to the hearersWhy Perkins warned against cluttering sermons with excessive citationsWhy application was the heartbeat of Puritan preaching“Discriminating application” and addressing different kinds of hearers in one sermonPerkins' categories of hearers and how they challenge one-size-fits-all preachingThe Directory for Public Worship and its heavy emphasis on applicationThe six Puritan “uses” of application:InformationRefutationExhortationAdmonitionComfortTrial (self-examination)Why pastoral prayer belongs at the heart of gathered worshipHow public prayer functions as shepherding, not transition timeThe connection between preaching, prayer, and spiritual formationWhich Puritan habits could most immediately strengthen modern preachingHow studying the Puritans has shaped Shane's own preachingA closing “quote machine” segment featuring memorable Puritan linesKey TakeawaysPuritan preaching was deeply pastoral, not merely academicApplication is not an appendix to exposition, but its goalStructure serves clarity and freedom rather than rigidityToo many quotations can obscure rather than illuminate ScripturePastoral prayer is a theological act that teaches, shepherds, and forms a congregationPreaching and prayer together shape the spiritual life of the churchAbout the GuestShane Deane earned his PhD in Expository Preaching from The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary. He also holds an MDiv in Pastoral Studies and a ThM in Practical Theology. Shane serves as one of the elders at Passage Baptist Church in Passage West and works with Irish Baptist Missions.Shane was born in Cork, where he met and married his wife Luana, who is originally from Brazil.

Welcome to the podcast Hacking the Afterlife. I tend to put information here that gives context to the podcast. In that vein, for those unfamiliar with what we're doing: At what point in time is it okay to ask recently deceased people questions on the flipside? When is too soon? When is it inappropriate?  Some context: as a filmmaker, I've written and or directed 10 feature films, made a number of documentaries about the afterlife, and have spoken at UVA Medical school DOPS regarding how the footage shows consciousness is not confined to the brain. Jennifer Shaffer works with law enforcement agencies nationwide on missing person cases. I've interviewed some of those agents from the FBI, LAPD (NYPD) who work with her on a daily basis. A third of her practice is pro bono work with law enforcement. She also works with a number of people who knew Rob and Michelle, and the families of Kobe Bryant and Steve Jobs have allowed her to mention that she works with them. Ten years ago, I began working with Jennifer - we met for lunch and have been talking since then. The past five years on our podcast. Our moderator on the flipside is Luana Anders - who worked with Rob Reiner in the film THE LAST DETAIL. Luana died in my arms, and began visiting me not long after (back in 1996). It took me until 2004 to investigate how it was possible she could communicate with me - and upon meeting Jennifer I realized I could have conversations with her. And indeed - we've been doing that nonstop for over ten years. Luana was in many films - worked with Marlon Brando, Jack Nicholson and others - and in my case, I worked with Ray Charles in the film LIMIT UP where he plays “God.” The point is that it's “six degrees of separation.” If Luana knows someone, or I worked with someone, it's easier for us to verify those details. I knew Penny Marshall, we did a gig together once, I appeared on Laverne and Shirley once (cutting room floor because Harry Dean Stanton's song went long.) So when this question is asked; “Are you going to be speaking to Rob and Michelle soon?” it comes from the couple of hundred interviews we have on the podcast HACKING THE AFTERLIFE on YouTube. In terms of our podcast, people tend to miss the notion that we aren't in charge of the guest list. Since Jennifer and I have begun to talk to the flipside, it's really up to Luana Anders to decide who is “ready to be interviewed.” In terms of how that works, sometimes I “hear” a voice from someone I knew or know - and when that happens, I'll say to myself “Well, if this person wants to show up for a conversation, they know where to find us.” And then - since Jennifer and I have been doing that for over the past ten years, frequently I'll show up for a meeting with her - and she'll say “so and so is here.” That has happened more often than I can recall. I can report that I heard Robert Kennedy's voice one day saying “I understand you're the person I need to speak with to get a message to my family.” I had the presence of mind to not judge that I heard his distinct voice - and said to him; “Actually I'm not the guy, you need to find Luana.” The next day I went to meet with Jennifer and she said before I could say anything; “Robert Kennedy is here.” The other day during the Frank Gehry interview, I heard his voice (or had the impression of hearing his voice) saying “Yes, I'll be on your podcast.” And not believing that it was actually him and not my imagination, I said to him “Well, we met through Sally Kellerman, so if you do want to speak to us, Sally should show up and I'll know it's you.” And during that podcast, at first Jennifer said “Luana says you have someone” and then said “Hot Lips is here.” (Sally Kellerman's role in the film MASH.) So I knew that Frank was available to converse. In this case, we have spoken to Rob Reiner's ex, Penny whom I was pals with. When she crossed over, we have a conversation with the one and only. We've also interview Garry Marshall, whom I knew when he was still on the planet - so it wasn't hard for us to connect with Penny. Generally - what we've learned recently is that Luana Anders is teaching a class in the flipside in how to communicate with us. The class - is large. We've spoken to quite a few people in the past ten years. So all that being said, I was wondering if we'd be speaking to Rob and his wife Michelle this week. A friend of mine who has done a guided meditation session with me said “I have the feeling you're going to be speaking to Rob Reiner this week.” I said “It may be too soon - but I have to be open to whomever does show up.” In other words - I know how tragic the event is, I know how raw his friends feel - and some of them I know well enough to say that I know they'd be upset to hear that we were inviting him to our podcast. This week - I'm about to post it - he does show up. I ask Luana “Who is here on your guest list” and Jennifer makes a face and says “Rob Reiner.” Then she said “He's just observing. He doesn't want to speak. But he's observing the class.” We've had that before - where people show up to just observe this give and take to see what it is. In the Frank Gehry podcast I asked him if he was ready to converse (He was friends with Luana and I told him at a party that I had scattered some of his old friend's ashes at the Guggenheim in Bilbao) - and we ask him about that on the podcast. The point is - without context it may seem exploitive to converse with someone who is recently passed. I know that some people are offended that we speak to anyone in this fashion - however, as I try to point out, as a filmmaker for the past 40 years, a music critic at Variety, and since Luana was in over 100 films and TV shows - between us we know many folks on the flipside, and she has many of them in her class on how to “communicate with the denser realm.” (Folks onstage). So Rob and Michelle may talk to us in the future. That's up to them. Again - it's not my opinion, theory or belief that people exist after leaving the stage - it's what the footage, data and research show. People can spend their lives believing that life ends, and be completely startled, shocked to realize life goes on. That our manner of passing isn't as relevant as our many of living - and how many people we've affected or cared about. Love is all there is. So it's a cogent question, and the answer is revealed in today's podcast: “Yes, he still exists and No, he's not ready to talk about it yet.” We'll see if he is at a future date. The point of the podcast (and the underlying point of the question) is that “everyone can communicate with people offstage” - our loved ones are not gone, they just aren't here. I'm sorry that bothers some people - but I wouldn't be accurate if I didn't report verbatim what the data, research or footage was showing. Hope this helps someone. For people who want to communicate directly with loved ones, I can recommend Jennifer's help - there's also her "Wine & Spirits" events in Manhattan beach. For those willing to do hypnotherapy, I recommend Scott at LightBetweenLives.com - a way to explore in detail. For those who are familiar with guided meditation, I can help them access their teachers and guides via RichardMartini.com Hope this helps.

Some years ago, when Jonathan Krane was producing my films and married to the Oscar nominated actress Sally Kellerman - who was Luana Anders closest pal on the planet - my wife and I had a Christmas dinner at Sally and Jonathan's home. Frank Gehry was there - by himself, so my wife and I, both children of architects sat down to have a lively conversation about everything under the sun. So the other day, after Frank passed, I had the "feeling" or awareness that he was willing to join our podcast - mainly because we've interviewed so many pals of his. Frank was in "group therapy" with Sydney Pollack, Sally, Jonathan, Luana - Blake Edwards, Dudley Moore and others... Milton Wexler was the renowned psychotherapist who ran the group, and remained a famous therapist until the end of his life. But because I knew Sally was in the group - I made that the "bell ringer" for myself - if I asked to speak to Frank and Sally showed up ("Hot Lips" in the original MASH) I knew it was him. And that's what happens in the podcast. Frank stops by to talk about his journey - and I was startled to see that his favorite building was the home of Norton Simon - which I didn't know he designed when I went to Sally and Jonathan's wedding at the palatial estate. But there you have it - I don't even know if Jennifer said "Venice" and I heard "Malibu" - I'll have to check the tape, but that's where my mind went. And yes, Jennifer Jones did offer to have our wedding at her home - but we didn't go that path.  Funny to remember it now and in this fashion. It's another mind bending podcast and serves as a reminder; they aren't gone; they're just not here. Happy Holidays, Merry Christmas and for folks like Frank who are Jewish; Happy Hannukah!

In the hushed whispers of the cosmic winds, we find ourselves immersed in today's profound dialogue with Richard Martini. A filmmaker turned afterlife researcher, Richard brings to the table not just stories but encounters with the beyond that challenge our very understanding of existence. His journey is a testament to the seamless blend of artistry and spirituality, a voyage from the tangible frames of film to the ethereal frames of our souls.Richard Martini's odyssey into the afterlife began with a personal loss that transformed his path. The passing of his dear friend Luana Anders marked the beginning of his exploration into the unseen realms. Luana, an actress of over 300 TV shows and movies, began appearing in Richard's dreams and later, more vividly, in his waking life. This wasn't a figment of imagination but a profound connection that spurred him to dive deeper into understanding the afterlife.As Richard recounts, "When they started seeing her, I thought, well, that can't be me making that up because they're reporting the same things I'm seeing."In our conversation, Richard unveils his unique method of using hypnotherapy to explore past lives and the afterlife. He mentions working with Dr. Michael Newton, a pioneer in the field, and how these sessions revealed astonishing details about the continuity of the soul. Richard's work, documented in films and books like "Flipside" and "Hacking the Afterlife," provides a window into these otherworldly experiences. He emphasizes, "We are all just actors on a stage, and the real learning happens when we step off the stage and reflect on our performance."Richard shares an intriguing story about using a medium to communicate with Amelia Earhart. He describes how the medium, Jennifer Schaefer, accurately recounted details only known to Richard, proving the veracity of these spiritual encounters. Richard states, "Amelia told us that when they dug her up, they only found an arm," a fact corroborated later by historical research. Such experiences underline the depth of Richard's work and its potential to bridge the gap between the living and the departed.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/next-level-soul-podcast-with-alex-ferrari--4858435/support.Take your spiritual journey to the next level with Next Level Soul TV — our dedicated streaming home for conscious storytelling and soulful transformation.Experience exclusive programs, original series, movies, tv shows, workshops, audiobooks, meditations, and a growing library of inspiring content created to elevate, heal, and awaken.

Quem é Luana Lopes Lara e como uma bailarina de Joinville chegou ao MIT, fundou a Kalshi e tornou-se a mais jovem bilionária brasileira construindo a própria fortuna? Neste vídeo, contamos a trajetória que une disciplina do balé, raciocínio matemático, algoritmos e a criação de uma exchange de eventos que “permite negociar o futuro” com perguntas objetivas de sim ou não. Você vai ver: a formação na Escola do Bolshoi, a virada para Ciência da Computação e Matemática no MIT, o encontro com Tarek Mansour, o processo regulatório até a aprovação da CFTC, a tese dos mercados preditivos, a tração com investidores e como isso levou Luana ao status de bilionária aos 29. Mostramos também aplicações práticas (inflação, clima, emprego, cultura pop e esportes), o impacto para empresas e indivíduos e por que a história de Luana inspira milhares de jovens brasileiros. Ao final, conectamos essa transformação à pauta de descentralização do dinheiro e ao nosso Curso Introdutório de Bitcoin.

Confira os destaques do Jornal da Manhã deste domingo (07): Uma nova pesquisa Datafolha simula um segundo turno eleitoral para 2026 e aponta que o presidente Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva (PT) venceria o senador Flávio Bolsonaro (PL-RJ). O resultado reforça a dificuldade do nome de Flávio em expandir seu eleitorado para além da base ideológica. Lideranças políticas no Congresso e no estado de São Paulo acreditam que o governador Tarcísio de Freitas (Republicanos) não concorreria à Presidência da República em um cenário onde um nome da família Bolsonaro (como Flávio ou Michelle) esteja na disputa. A avaliação é que a lealdade de Tarcísio ao ex-presidente Jair Bolsonaro e o medo de rachar o eleitorado de direita impediriam o governador de avançar com a própria candidatura. O estado de São Paulo iniciou a campanha de vacinação de gestantes contra o Vírus Sincicial Respiratório (VSR). A imunização é uma importante medida de saúde pública, visando proteger os recém-nascidos contra a bronquiolite, uma infecção respiratória grave causada pelo VSR. A injeção está disponível para as gestantes a partir da 28ª semana de gravidez nas Unidades Básicas de Saúde (UBS). O novo Censo demográfico revela a grave crise habitacional e a profunda desigualdade social no estado de São Paulo. Os dados apontam que 8 em cada 100 pessoas do estado vivem em favelas e assentamentos precários. Em números absolutos, o Censo mostra que 3,6 milhões de paulistas residem nessas comunidades. A professora Luana Leal Silva Rocha, de 25 anos, está em estado grave na UTI do Hospital São Sebastião, em Três Corações (MG), após ter 60% do corpo queimado na tarde de sexta-feira (5), no distrito de Sobradinho, em São Tomé das Letras. A polícia de Minas Gerais investiga o caso como tentativa de feminicídio. A suspeita é que o namorado da vítima tenha cometido a agressão, usando gasolina para atear fogo em Luana durante uma briga. O presidente Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva (PT) voltou a reforçar publicamente seu posicionamento favorável ao fim da escala de trabalho 6x1, onde o trabalhador folga apenas um dia após seis de atividade. No entanto, o tema gera grande polêmica e preocupação no setor produtivo. Comentaristas políticos e econômicos analisam a viabilidade da medida. O Supremo Tribunal Federal (STF) marcou o julgamento dos réus acusados de serem os mandantes do assassinato da vereadora Marielle Franco e de seu motorista, Anderson Gomes. A pauta inclui os irmãos Domingos Brazão (conselheiro do TCE-RJ) e Chiquinho Brazão (deputado federal), apontados pela investigação como os articuladores do crime, além de outros envolvidos. O presidente da Argentina, Javier Milei, demonstrou apoio à pré-candidatura de Flávio Bolsonaro (PL-RJ) à Presidência da República ao compartilhar uma publicação sobre o tema nas redes sociais. A líder da oposição venezuelana, María Corina Machado, receberá o Prêmio Nobel da Paz em uma cerimônia oficial em Oslo, na Noruega. O prêmio confere a María Corina uma enorme visibilidade internacional e aumenta a pressão global sobre o governo venezuelano. Essas e outras notícias você acompanha no Jornal da Manhã.

As always, the podcast is around whatever topic that Luana Anders, our moderator on the Flipside wants to discuss. In this case, it was about how to modify stress, how to change the paradigm, and most importantly, to talk about Santa. I make a joke about how you never see Santa and Satan in the same room - both have the same letters, both wear red outfits, what's up with that? Jennifer avoids answering me and talks about how Luana is making a connection between Jesus and Santa. I offer an explanation and Jennifer "taps her nose" which is how Luana shows her that I'm on the right path. The idea that Santa represents a gift giver, someone who gives gifts without asking for anything in return - no loyalty, no fealty, no religions beliefs - just flat out, "here's the gift I'm giving you based on what you need." Jesus - in terms of the data, the research (see THE GREATEST STORY NEVER TOLD AS TOLD BY JESUS AND THOSE WHO KNEW HIM for context) - he shows up in 15% of NDE's whether people believe in him or not, so it's not a religious point that is being made. It's a giving point. And when Jesus shows up, people talk about feeling "unconditional love" or "indescribable joy" or "non judgmental acceptance." All of which could be viewed as "Gifts" to give someone.  Luana talks about how the world would shift in 24 hours if everyone on it could give unconditional love for that time frame - but suggests that just doing ten minutes of focused meditation a day - and giving yourself love while doing it, is a way to chip away at the problem. Again - Luana Anders is my pal who I was with for 20 years, who died in my arms in 1996. When I first started meeting up with Jennifer over 10 years ago, she talked about Luana being in the room - and eventually we realized that she brought us together. In this podcast, for the first time, I realize that Luana is "teaching a class on the flipside" (parts of which include this podcast) where she's showing people offstage how to communicate to a denser realm, using telepathy or by reaching out to someone like Jennifer whose filters are lowered or down. Jennifer talks about how her doctors have suggested that her being in the Delta state for a number of hours per day, has healed her brain from the traumatic injury she experienced after a car accident many years ago.  Her doctors have suggested that its her work that has helped to heal her brain. However, that also means that her filters are less than others - and the density of our realm is what the class is about.  It's another mind bending podcast, but the discussion is lighthearted. Eddie Hassell, the later actors makes an appearance at the beginning to explain how and why he "set off the fire alarm" in Jennifer's home (to reach out to his mother).   Then I recount the battery on my car dying - and Luana said that was "done to prevent you from having a car accident that day."  It sounds like wishful thinking, except I wasn't aware I'd left the flashers on the car on - didn't see them in the garage, didn't hear them as I normally would.  All I can say is "Thank Lu, I appreciate it."  She also said she was with me and my pals and family on Thanksgiving - which is a fun thing to consider.   Again another mind bending podcast and it includes Santa!!!

Another mind bending podcast.  #Prince #Hira #RobertTowne #RobinWilliams #FredRoos Jennifer begins the podcast talking about a kitty she's rescued and what she's going to name it. Robert Towne's dog Hira stopped by - often does when it comes to animals - and we asked him about how the cat found Jennifer.  Then since Robert Towne was standing by, I asked him about our mutual friend Fred (Jennifer head his name "Fred Roos") and I asked him about a conversation I had this past weekend about the Heritage Auction that they're doing with his stuff - and asked about a mutual friend named Colleen. Those who know Colleen and know Fred will know their connection, but Jennifer does not.  So I spoke to Colleen and she told me a friend of hers had passed, but nothing more about them. And so I asked Fred about that. Meaning I'm asking someone offstage about someone else offstage that I don't know - that Jennifer doesn't know - that only Colleen could know if this is accurate or not. Then Robin Williams and Prince stopped by - and at some point, because I know that people like to complain about "celebrities" on the podcast, I asked Prince how many of his other lifetimes he was aware of. It's not a question I've ever asked before on the air. But he said "1325" (I think).  Meaning he's aware of over 1300 other lifetimes.  And so when someone is accessing their previous lifetimes - as we all can - they can access the ones that had impact on the one they're living now. It's mind bending to consider, but it is consistent in the data, research and footage. Then Robin talked a little bit about how when someone wants to invite him over, just turn on one of his films. He's happy to watch his films with anyone who wants to see him. Another mind bending podcast. Thanks for tuning in!

[Note: This episode was recorded Monday night, prior to the news late afternoon that Haley Carter is leaving the Pride's front office to pursue other opportunities. We will, rest assured, address that news on our next show.]The Orlando Pride just couldn't score. The team played well against Gotham FC, particularly on the defensive end and in the middle of the pitch, but the team's inability to find a goal — coupled with a late set piece goal conceded off an iffy foul call just outside the area — ended Orlando's bid to repeat as NWSL champions. The game could have gone either way, but it went the wrong way. We break down the heartbreaking loss, check on our score predictions, and make our selections for Player of the Match (we split the vote this time).The Pride may also be on the move in terms of training location. We briefly discussed the club's intentions to put everyone at the same facility at Osceola Heritage Park, which would be a boost in the facilities arms race for Orlando.Our mailbagbox wants to know if the NWSL will follow MLS in changing to a fall-to-spring schedule, if the Pride's attendance will keep going up, if Marta should become a super sub, and more. Remember, you can ask us anything by hitting us up on Twitter at either @TheManeLand or @SkoPurpSoccer and using the hashtag #AskSkoPurp. You can use that same hashtag and hit @TheManeLand.bsky.social up on Bluesky. Or you can visit our show page, scroll down, and fill out the handy form. We'd also appreciate any ratings or reviews you can leave wherever you get your podcasts, and if you do that on Apple Podcasts, we'll find them easily and read them on the show.After our mailbagbox, we briefly talked about Luana's new contract before going player by player through the Pride's roster and determine whether we think that player will stay for next season or go, and whether or not we want them to stay or go. Listen in real time as I struggle to remember who Kat Asman is, and as we forget Cosette Morche and Elyse Bennett completely. Yeah, we were not ready to do stays/goes yet.We're in our off-season schedule now, so we'll be back at least monthly, and as often as news requires.If you'd like to support our independent writing and podcasting efforts, we'd love to have you as a subscriber or donor over at our Buy Me a Coffee site.Here's how Episode 110 went down:0:15 – The Pride didn't score, so the Pride didn't win. It's as simple as that. But it's also not. The team played well apart from lacking goals.20:28 - Our mailbagbox is searching for answers.36:00 - Stays/goes time. We discuss contract situations and try to predict how the 2026 roster will shake out.

We weren't able to do a podcast tonight, "unforeseen circumstances" (isn't that funny for a podcast where we talk to the afterlife?) - but am rerunning one of our most popular podcasts, with the additional opening and subtitles, so people can "sing along with us." Just kidding. Here's the original liner notes: This was from a year ago.... For those not familiar with this podcast; Jennifer Shaffer is an intuitive medium who works with law enforcement nationwide on missing person cases. She does pro bono work daily for them, and once a week we get together and see what we can learn from the flipside.  We've been doing this weekly for 8 years, the last two on our podcast. I'm a filmmaker, have written and/or directed 8 theatrical feature films, a couple of documentaries.   Some years ago, my best friend died in my arms and started coming to visit me. Instead of being freaked out by it (and her showing up to friends and family members) I started to dig into how that might be. That's resulted in 10 books (Flipside, etc) and four with Jennifer Shaffer.  In this edition, a number of people show up that we've spoken with before. We interviewed Kobe just after his passing, it's the last chapter in the book "Backstage Pass to the Flipside 3" - where he talks about his journey, and I ask him questions in Italian. Eventually members of his family have met with Jennifer - so it's not unusual for us that he might stop by.   The construct is this; my friend who passed away is on the flipside, and has organized a "group meeting" or a class as we call it, not to teach folks on the planet, but to teach people on the flipside how to communicate using frequency, images, visualizations on the flipside. Jennifer may get an image, let's say of a character from a TV show, and it may be their way of giving her a thought so that I could say, "Do you mean someone who shares the same name of that character in the TV show wants to speak to us?" That happens often.  As noted, Jennifer is doing her best to translate what is coming to her. Like a translator at the UN, the people on the flipside are downloading a lot of information, and she does her best to catch the meaning, syntax and general idea of what someone wants to impart. A number of people stop by who've been interviewed before; Prince ("I was addicted to jumping off pianos, which caused me to use pain killers"), Robin Williams ("Love Love"). Marilyn stops by - refers to something I was writing at MartiniZone.com the other day - and when I asked if she wanted to talk about the manner of her passing, she said she wanted to talk about how she had two children waiting for her on the flipside. Both whom had not come to term.    That concept has been repeated in the research - consistently. A number of people in our podcast have mentioned it, the idea of "those we don't have are waiting for us on the flipside."  Harry Dean Stanton said the same thing - and I was able to verify it (but don't mention it in the podcast.) It's in "Backstage Pass to the Flipside."  Harry came through after he passed and before his memorial. I asked him what he wanted me to impart to his friends (as noted.) He also said that when he passed, "He was in a room with five women" and when he got to the flipside, he was met by a "baby that he didn't have in life."   In other words, a child was there to greet him with this profound unconditional love. At his memorial that I went to a week later, I asked someone who was with him at his deathbed to describe the scene. She said "There were five of us with him, all women."  I asked if he had said anything unusual while she was in the room. She said "Yes, he asked me to hand him the baby. But there was no baby in the room." I had heard THE SAME THING from Harry on the Flipside via Jennifer a week earlier. At some point, the Alpha and Omega stops by - and mentions the one thing he wishes people would not do, that is "get freaked out by his name." (Jesus). I've had a number of interviews with him via various mediums, different hypnotherapy sessions, and multiple guided meditation sessions.  As noted in the podcast, I've finished that book and am doing the audible as we speak. (SINCE THEN IT'S BEEN PUBLISHED, AS HAS THE LATEST BOOK "SHE WAS NEVER LOST" about Amelia Earhart)  As to books by scientists about how consciousness isn't confined to the brain, I recommend Dr. Greyson's AFTER, Dr. Tucker's BEFORE, Dr. Kelly's CONSCIOUSNESS UNBOUND.  In terms of the hypnotherapy research, I recommend the thousands of case studies from Dr. Helen Wambach (RELIVING PAST LIVES) Dr. Weiss (MANY LIVES, MANY MASTERS) Michael Newton (JOURNEY OF SOULS.)  My latest book is DivineCouncils.com - where I invited 50 people, half whom had never heard of councils, who visited them, met their guides, teachers, etc. Enjoy!

The Orlando Pride hosted the Seattle Reign for the second consecutive weekend and there was a lot more on the line the second time. The Pride scored a well-worked goal in the opening 21 minutes, defended like hell, and rode the sheer force of Marta's will to a late insurance goal to beat the Seattle Reign 2-0 at home Friday to advance to the NWSL playoff semifinals. It was a match reminiscent of last year's playoff run with Haley McCutcheon opening the scoring and the Pride putting the clamps on the opposition's offense. We look back at a huge win in the playoff opener, McCutcheon going full McClutcheon, Marta's refusal to be denied, and the emotional finish with Luana's first Orlando Pride goal to cap things off. We also checked back on our score predictions and made our selections for Player of the Match.After our Seattle playoff rewind, we dive into a gigantic mailbagbox. Our listeners wanted to know how embarrassed the Kansas City Current should be after losing at home to Gotham FC, whether Seb Hines was snubbed for an end-of-season award, who the Pride should court for a leg sleeve sponsor, whether a certain former-player-turned-pundit should shut up, and more. Remember, you can ask us anything by hitting us up on Twitter at either @TheManeLand or @SkoPurpSoccer and using the hashtag #AskSkoPurp. You can use that same hashtag and hit @TheManeLand.bsky.social up on Bluesky. Or you can visit our show page, scroll down, and fill out the handy form. We'd also appreciate any ratings or reviews you can leave wherever you get your podcasts, and if you do that on Apple Podcasts, we'll find them easily and read them on the show.After our mailbagbox, we previewed Sunday's semifinal match at home against Gotham FC. The Pride fell into a second postseason home match in the 2025 playoffs, and now they have an opportunity to take advantage of playing in front of their own fans with a trip to a second straight league final on the line. Gotham isn't a normal No. 8 seed, so there's no room for taking Sunday's visitors lightly, especially after they ousted the seemingly unbeatable Current. We look at the series history, provide our key matchups, and try our best to predict the final score.If you'd like to support our independent writing and podcasting efforts, we'd love to have you as a subscriber or donor over at our Buy Me a Coffee site.Here's how Episode 109 went down:0:15 – The Pride put a crooked number on the board Friday and didn't allow a goal, so based on that math, you can surmise Orlando won its playoff game over Seattle. We discuss it.19:53 - Our mailbagbox is absolutely supersized and presents a lot of questions and comments at the expense of the Kansas City Current.46:51 - Gotham slew the dragon in Kansas City and will visit the Pride on Sunday in the NWSL semifinals. We preview.

Another mind bending podcast.  In this case, Luana brought JFK forward to chat with us about a number of things.  Including a conversation I had with him yesterday via a guided meditation. I ask as many questions as I could think of - and I'm happy to report that he's still the charming fellow he was when he was on the planet. He has a birthday message to his niece Maria, and so did Prince. To book a session with Jennifer: JenniferShaffer.com - to book a session with me, RichardMartini.com 

It's the "Day of the Doorway" podcast. Jennifer begins by talking about some of the incredible things happening in her world, the Fox TV show they're making that Jessica Alba is producing, and the unusual events that have happened in the past around her "Day of the Dead." As we like to point out; "can't be dead if they can communicate or share new information."  In this episode of our podcast, we talk to Luana Anders our moderator on the flipside about the process involved, and at some point my old boss, Luana's close pal Robert Towne stops by with his dog Hira. We ask a couple of questions to his Dog - the only dog nominated for an Oscar (Robert used his name for the film "Greystoke" and I heard not long ago, that he had sent Richard Prince (mentioned in the discussion of "Heaven Can Wait") Richard went to the Oscars with a speech Robert Towne had written in case his dog Hira won the oscar.  True story. I had a dream last night where I was speaking to the daughter of my friend "Jeanne" - and I thought about the podcast and just said "Let's invite your mom to talk to us" - and that's the genesis of this conversation. I asked her about what it was like being on the flipside, I also asked her about mutual friends that are offstage, as well as some friends of hers that I know that are still onstage. In this case because I don't reveal her name - these are questions asked to a friend on the flipside who can answer them, in a demonstration of the kinds of questions anyone can ask loved ones who have crossed over. JenniferShaffer.com is where one can book a session with Jennifer, or attend the "Wine & Spirits" events in Manhattan Beach, and RichardMartini.com is where one can book a meditation with me, where I provide an audio MP3, transcript and a copy of any of my books. Happy DAY OF THE DOORWAY!! (which we speak about in the podcast - how the day of the dead, is really about realizing that it's just a doorway.) Enjoy.

Another mind bending session if only because of the scope of the conversations. We begin with our usual catching up - Jennifer is doing her "Wine and Spirits" events in Manhattan Beach, and I've been doing guided meditations with people (she's at JENNIFERSHAFFER.COM) and I'm at RICHARDMARTINI.COM We invite Luana Anders for a chat, and Luana brought up a guided meditation I did the other day as she wanted to discuss something that occurred. Jennifer doesn't know what it is - because I haven't told anyone.  Nor do we speak prior to the session. But during a session, a woman was accessing her council when we spoke to one of her teachers, and I asked him if he was teaching a class. He said "Yes. "Flying."  I asked if we could visit the classroom and speak to one of his students. We did that and Bill Paxton appeared as he was conversant about the idea of "flying at the speed of thought." As we discussed that other class members started showing up and Luana wanted to refer to that - saying that these sessions we're doing is helping people on the other side how to communicate with their loved ones on the planet. Then we spoke with Lisa Marie Presley - who wanted to talk in general about the topic of "leaving the stage early" - as her son Benjamin had done so.  Jennifer and I aren't dispensing any kind of medical advice, and if one is feeling suicidal, please call #988 and seek professional help. But we had a general discussion about depression, about the research that shows meditation can "cure or alleviate symptoms of depression" - we talked about the number of people who have left the stage early (Anthony Bourdain, etc) who have come to our podcast to suggest that people take up meditation to help these issues. And I cited the work by Richard Davidson at the University of Wisconsin ("Healthy Minds") that showed how meditation can "cure or alleviate symptoms of depression." Lisa Marie's son came forward and talked about what it was like for him to return home - saying that while he was met by "overwhelming unconditional love" he felt he also carried the trauma and sadness he'd caused others by his leaving early.  I asked his grandfather if he wanted to weigh in and deferred to his daughter. However Prince came forward to talk about how "jumping off pianos" led to his pain killer addiction - but he doesn't regret "jumping off pianos" because it's a metaphor for living a life fully. And then Bill Paxton weighed in from his perspective, and I asked him about his pal Rob Lowe (who has spoken to Bill on a podcast where he showed him "how to fly" on the flipside.) Another mind bending adventure. Thanks for tuning in.

I happen to catch the "I like me" documentary about #JohnCandy on Netflix, directed by Colin Hanks.  It's a wonderful trip down memory lane.  In my case, I studied at Second City in Chicago (took classes for a semester) before I moved to LA.  I joined a group of improv actors in the Harvey Lembeck workshop, but was an avid fan of SCTV during my years at Boston University and beyond. Charles Grodin and I had that in common - he loved Johnny LaRue (John Candy) and all the other characters, and late in life, Chuck would make DVD copies of his favorite bits and send them to his pals. I have a dozen or so.  As a film director I got to meet a bunch of people... and in this interview with John - you'll hear that I don't say the last name of the actors that I'm referring to, because it's more fun if Jennifer gets them accurately. And she does (once I let her know who we're talking to.) I had just watched the documentary, so the people in it are #SteveMartin (who needs to lighten up on the sobriety), #MartyShort (get your heart checked), Dave Thomas, Andrea Martin (who never changes),  Joe Flaherty, #EugeneLevy (the skeptical one) #CatherineOHara (the dreamer he's visited) Harold Ramis... #BillMurray, #DanAykroyd, #JohnBelushi, #TomHanks... I remembered to mention his lovely wife Rosemary and his two children, both whom are very touching in the doc.  (Sorry I didn't mention his brother in case he views this.)  I asked these questions without Jennifer knowing who I was talking about (except she saw Tom Hanks and saw Bill Murray when I said their first names.  That happens.   So this is an extreme yet excellent example of what we've been doing for  every week for over ten years.  See the film HACKING THE AFTERLIFE on Gaia or Amazon prime for examples.  Jennifer doesn't know anything about the doc about John's life, doesn't know anything about John Candy's life - and I made some errors, like giving Harold Ramis credit for directing Stripes which he cowrote (Ivan Reitman directed it) Harold directed him in Caddyshack, National Lampoon's Vacation.  (A movie that John Hughes told me in person he hated the film but clearly he like John in the film).  As noted, I went to high school with John Hughes, and he was pals with my brother, and super close friends with his wife - who was close to both John and Nancy.   My brother was also pals with Bill Murray in high school, and although I didn't say it in the podcast, I'll say it here - Bill Murray gave me - a brother of his high school pal - free tickets to the dress rehearsal at SNL for years.  I mean - for years -I took friends, including Luana Anders to the show.  And once, had the chutzpa to wait to see him after the show, give him a bottle of wine, and introduce him to Luana...  It was funny because he really didn't know me - I was just there to thank him for leaving tickets for "Elvis Martini" for all those years, and I think he was miffed I'd stuck around to thank him. Little did he know that the Luana he met - the very same Luana - is the moderator of our podcast from the flipside. If I was going to point to one show that demonstrates the ability of Jennifer talking to people offstage - it's this one. She works with members of the FBI, NYPD, LAPD on missing person cases, works pro bono a third of her practice, has been doing this for a long time, and indeed, they're making a show about her on Fox as we speak. I've written 13 books about the flipside, I do offer guided meditations, and Jennifer does these "wine and spirits" evenings in Manhattan beach that anyone can attend and isn't expensive, or they can book her directly. She works with members of Steve Jobs and Kobe Bryant's families - and they've given her permission to say so. So sit back, watch her talk to John Candy about all his pals onstage and off, mock Tom Hanks, tease Steve Martin, make fun of Bill Murray's golf game - all of it is not coming from me or Jennifer. I don't know how else to say it - have been filming people talking to their loved ones for over 15 years via hypnotherapy, guided meditation or mediums like Jennifer.  The story never changes. They aren't gone; they just aren't here.  Enjoy.
