Podcasts about near death

Send us Fan MailWhat happens when a scientist who has spent nearly two decades in biotechnology and oncology research has an experience that completely changes the way she understands consciousness?In this episode of the Spiritual Spotlight Series, Rachel Garrett sits down with Crystal Cassidy, scientist, mystic, and founder of Soul Pod, to explore the unexpected intersection of science, spirituality, meditation, consciousness, and technology.Crystal spent years working in biotechnology and oncology research, including clinical operations connected with bringing a blood-based cancer diagnostic to market. Then, during a severe illness in 2020, she describes having a near-death experience that profoundly changed the direction of her life and deepened her relationship with spirituality and consciousness.  transcript-a-near-death-wake-up…  transcript-a-near-death-wake-up…Rachel and Crystal explore why meditation does not always feel peaceful at first, why becoming more aware can initially mean becoming more aware of discomfort, and why spiritual growth may require learning how to stay present with emotions rather than constantly trying to escape them.  transcript-a-near-death-wake-up…They also dive into Crystal's concept of Soul Tech — the idea that technology, community, spiritual practice, nervous-system awareness, and consciousness can work together rather than against one another. Crystal shares why she created Soul Pod, a spiritual wellness platform designed to support people at different stages of awakening and give them a sense of community along the way.  transcript-a-near-death-wake-up…This conversation explores:Science and mystical experienceNear-death experiences and consciousnessWhy meditation can feel uncomfortableSpiritual bypassing and learning to stay in the bodyIntuition versus escapismSpiritual awakening and isolationConscious technologySoul Pod and personalized spiritual practiceThe future of AI, technology, and consciousnessLearning to trust the quiet inner calling that asks you to change your lifeCrystal's closing message is simple but powerful: you are more powerful than you know, and there is an inner technology within you waiting to be explored Support the showSpiritual Spotlight Series is hosted by Rachel Garrett, RN, CCH — Akashic Records Practitioner, Master Energy Healer, and Certified Crystal Healer.Conversations about the things we almost don't say out loud.

How can we explain vivid, life changing experiences and true perceptions occurring in patients between brain death and resuscitation? What are the implications of true information being anomalously communicated during these experiences? What are the implications of some children being able to access the memories of deceased people? Why do such a high portion of these kids remember a traumatic death?In this episode we have the two fascinating phenomena of near death experiences, and access to deceased peoples memories to look into. So, we discuss the history of NDE research, the main repeating components of the experiences and some of the anomalous information received; we talk about the radical changes in meaning, purpose and world views after such experiences; and the difficulties integrating this with their previous daily lives and relationships. Then we switch and look at the research into children who appear to have memories of people who are no longer alive, and the attempts to identify the dead person and verify if these things actually happened to them. And of course we're going to look at the implications of these anomalous phenomena for life, death, consciousness and the nature of reality.Our guest today is a psychiatrist and neuro-behavioural scientist in the Division of Perceptual Studies at the University of Virginia, Marieta Pehlivanova. She's the author of 12 scientific papers, many co-authored with Dr. Bruce Greyson, the founder of the International Association for the Study of Near Death experience, who recommended Marieta in his stead now he is unable to give interviews any more. Please feel free to donate to the Division of Perceptual StudiesDonation · University of Virginia · GiveCampusGetting funding to study anomalous phenomena is harder than ever, and we don't want this research to drop off the map.What we discuss: 00:00 Intro.06:45 Near Death Experiences.06:25 The Dept Of Perceptual Studies (DOPS), UOVirginia.14:15 Near Death Experience Scale: Features of NDE in psychiatry.18:15 Not everyone has the life review.19:30 Anomalous features. 26:20 The new Near Death Experience Contents Scale.28:20 NDE is hard to put into words.31:20 Mental health and integration support for NDErs.39:20 Metaphysical implications of NDEs.43:00 The afterlife hypothesis.44:00 The prejudice caused by our experience of the arrow of time.46:00 NDErs say, “everything is happening at the same time”.49:25 Children who have dead peoples memories, reincarnation-like cases - Ian Stevenson & Jim Tucker.52:30 How the accuracy of the memory is investigated.55:31 Habitual or biological similarities between child and remembered person.56:00 Resistance in jumping to the reincarnation hypothesis.58:30 %60 of the kids recall a traumatic death, some have trauma symptoms01:02:00 Comparing brain scans of these apparently traumatised children.01:04:45 New research coming on autobiographic memory pathways.01:07:30 Epigenetic and genetic approaches.01:07:50 Potential to explain intergenerational trauma mechanism.01:10:45 Metaphysical implications of children's memories of dead adults.01:15:30 Assessing claims that those who accept psi lack critical cognitive ability.References:International Association for Near-Death Studies (IANDS)Greyson's Near-Death experience scaleCharlotte Martial et al. 2020.

Sandra Combe is a retired corporate executive turned author, speaker, and healing arts entrepreneur. As a woman climbing the corporate ladder, she knew she had to stay sharp, and at 48, in the midst of a career at ExxonMobil that would span decades, she went back to school and earned her MBA. Her fast-paced lifestyle quickly came to a standstill when she had two near-death experiences: a heart attack at 49 and a triple bypass at 50. Those two occurrences shifted her mindset. She realized that what she needed more than work was to look within herself. In the years that followed, Sandra co-founded a wellness business with her daughter and began immersing herself in energy medicine and spiritual study. She also penned a memoir, Stop the Bypass, which details her extraordinary story and journey to becoming a healing arts entrepreneur.In this episode, host Robert Radnoti sits down with his longtime friend and ExxonMobil co-worker to discuss her book and the key moments that led to her new career. Their conversation covers her strict upbringing, young marriage to professional baseball player Jeff Combe, corporate experience in a male-dominated industry, and the health crisis that forced her to slow down. She also talks about the inspiration behind her book, sharing intimate details about the traumatic swimming pool incident that led to a three-day coma and the vivid experiences she had during that time. She even opens up about her experience as a new author dealing with honest family opinions. To close, she explains her daily ritual in what she calls her "Be Still" chair and what she learned from years of studying with spiritual teacher Derek O'Neill.Tune in to episode 68 of RADitude to hear how Sandra Combe turned a health scare and a life-altering near-death experience into a mission to help others stop bypassing their own truth.

Twenty years after a devastating train accident and near-death experience, David Ditchfield returns to Real-Life Angel Encounters to revisit the extraordinary experience that transformed his life. David shares how he encountered a radiant guardian angel, healing beings, a universe alive with love, and what he understood as the Source of all creation. He reflects on the spiritual awakening that followed, the challenges of returning to ordinary life, and the unexpected gifts that emerged through painting, music, and purpose. Christi and David also explore the power of prayer, self-love, creativity, and trusting life's unfolding. This moving conversation offers hope, reassurance, and a powerful reminder that love may be far greater—and closer—than we imagine, even in moments of profound crisis and uncertainty today.

Gareth tells Gord about the time he did ayahuasca, which naturally spirals into a full swap-meet of near-death experiences and "was that God or just my brain running out of oxygen" moments. Somewhere in there, Gord casually mentions he's sitting on a voting system that could fix democracy, as one does. Then it gets properly philosophical: what happiness actually is, why intelligence and love make being alive so unnecessarily complicated, and the one piece of advice that might actually save your attention span, keep your eyes on what you're building, not on your phone. Heavy stuff, delivered the way only these two can.

Dr. Rick Strassman joins us to talk about his first book, DMT: The Spirit Molecule: A Doctor's Revolutionary Research into the Biology of Near-Death and Mystical Experiences. Luke and I talk with Dr. Strassman about the difficulties in getting this type of research done, as well, of course, as the far reaching implications of what it all may mean. We follow up this with next week's interview on Strassman's latest book. You can check out his website and he will autograph books if you buy them from him directly. Hosted on Acast.

SPONSORSHIP: The Strauss family dedicates this episode to their mother and her health and all Jews everywhere. _________________________________________________________________________________ What happens when life doesn't break you once—but seven times? On this powerful episode of The Avrum Rosensweig Show, Avrum speaks with Nir Peled, author of Beyond 100%: Rebuilding Life After It Breaks. Born and raised in northern Israel, Nir is the grandson of a Holocaust survivor, a former IDF soldier and a successful technology executive. He has also survived seven life-threatening events: a car bombing in the Sinai Desert, a severe allergic reaction that ended his military career, the 2004 Indian Ocean tsunami, a violent kidnapping and robbery in the Amazon, cancer, a serious motorcycle accident and a massive stroke at age 49 that took away his speech, mobility and sense of identity. But Nir's story is not simply about what happened to him. It is about what he chose to do afterward. Beyond 100% began as Nir's private recovery journal and evolved into a deeply personal memoir and practical roadmap for anyone rebuilding after trauma, illness, loss or failure. Through his three pillars of body, mind and spirit, Nir challenges the belief that recovery means returning to “normal.” Instead, he shows how life's most painful experiences can lead us beyond who we once were—to greater strength, meaning and purpose. In this unforgettable conversation, Nir discusses survival, surrender, identity and the small, practical steps that can make an overwhelming recovery feel possible. He also shares how his Israeli upbringing, IDF service and the quiet wisdom of his Holocaust-survivor grandmother helped shape his extraordinary resilience. When life falls apart, the question is not only, “How do I get back up?” It is also, “Who can I become because I did?” Watch, subscribe and share this inspiring conversation with someone who needs strength, perspective and hope. ——

What does real recovery from panic disorder actually look like?Today I'm joined by Tom: a musician, Panic to Peace student, and one of the most genuine humans I've had on this podcast. Tom's story isn't a cinematic highlight reel of overnight transformation. It's honest, messy, and exactly what recovery actually looks like.At 28, Tom had a near death experience that triggered debilitating panic attacks and completely derailed his life. For years, freeways, movies, and even simple daily tasks felt impossible. Then he did the work, slowly, consistently, one small step at a time. And now at 40, he's about to release the song he almost never got to record.We talk about what finally clicked for him, the blind faith it takes to keep going when progress feels invisible, why flare ups are part of the process and not a sign you're failing, and what it felt like to get on a freeway, drive four exits, and know everything had changed.This one is for anyone who wonders if recovery is actually possible. It is. Tom is proof.September 2026 is your last chance to enroll in Panic to Peace until September 2027.GET ON THE WAITLIST: https://www.ahealthypush.com/live-panic-to-peaceLISTEN TO THE PODCAST: https://www.ahealthypush.com/podcastFOLLOW ME: @ahealthypushGET THIS EPISODE'S SHOW NOTES: https://www.ahealthypush.com/post/p2psuccess-tom

Have you ever noticed that when you cut your finger, you probably put a band-aid on it, and then you don't think twice about it? Have you noticed that you don't focus on healing your finger? You're not doing self hypnosis healing, acupuncture, yoga, etc. to heal your finger. Even if it's a bad cut that does not require stitches, you simply wrap it up, go about your tasks and forget about it. The whole point of this episode is shockingly simple and powerful, and honestly, it's the key to all manifestation. Yes, health, a cut finger, overall wellness, money, relationships…everything. The reason you don't focus or worry about your finger healing is because, are you ready? It's because you already know it's going to heal. And that is the key…the concept of ALREADY. I stumbled onto this realization by accidental observation in 2020. I had a stroke and heart failure in 2020 and today I am completely healthy and well. In this episode I talk about how a few things. I talk about where we keep our attention, what we create when we work from “need” and the power of already knowing that we can create whatever we want in life. That is a tremendous power we all have, no matter what the circumstances of your life are at the moment. When we work from needing and creating and in particular, when we place high value on what we want, even great health, we often create resistance to getting it. Why do we create resistance? Because the bigger it is the harder it seems and that is challenging for a lot of people. Transformational Takeaway  How would you think, how would you feel, what would you do if you ALREADY had _____?

In this episode, we explore the fascinating difference between the mind and the brain. We challenge the common belief that our mind is limited to cognitive functions and decision-making. Instead, I introduce the idea that our mind extends beyond our brain, connecting us to a universal consciousness. We discuss how the brain acts as a translator, turning the vast potential of our mind into our everyday experiences. This episode encourages you to rethink where your thoughts come from and the true power behind your ability to heal and create. Sharing personal stories, including a life-changing experience after a stroke, I show how near-death experiences can reveal the mind's capacity to operate independently from our physical bodies, highlighting its connection to a greater, divine mind. This episode invites you to reconsider how you manifest, heal, and exist. Transformational Takeaway Understand and align with the divine mind and unlock endless possibilities for creativity, healing, and change...

Episode 202 of Talking in Ovals brings Lyle, Dave and Alex together with Ben Andrus, the standout distance runner who just wrapped an unforgettable career at Haddonfield Memorial High School. From the moment the fire first lit in him to chase the clock and the pack, Ben has collected memories that stretch across seasons of breakthroughs, team glory, and personal grit. We dig into those early sparks and the moments that still stick with him, then turn to what it really felt like balancing individual ambitions inside one of New Jersey's most dominant programs. Ben opens up about stepping into leadership, carrying the weight of expectations while lifting the guys around him, and finding the right balance between personal bests and team titles.Looking ahead, the conversation shifts to the decision that sent him to Boston College, how far he sees himself going in the sport, and the deeper ways running has shaped the person he is becoming. Through a year that tested him with a sudden, life-threatening heart condition from Lyme carditis and the heartbreaking loss of his father just days before one of his biggest races, Ben kept showing up. The resilience that carried him back to the track and onto the podium at places like the Penn Relays and the Meet of Champions is the same quiet strength that will define whatever comes next.This one is about more than splits and medals. It is about the heart of a runner who refuses to quit. Ben's Instagram - @ben.andrus

Change, Initiation, and Jiu Jitsu as a Modern Mystery with Professor Jason Hawkins The host of The Jiu Jitsu Mindset welcomes Professor Jason Hawkins, promotes the My Jiu Jitsu Journey app's new weight-loss component, and mentions Submission Coffee's wholesale program for gym owners. They discuss change as deep transformation rather than habit tweaks, framing growth as transmuting suffering into consciousness and using a marathon "pain is inevitable, suffering is optional" story plus the Yoga Sutras' "now" as a call to seriousness when ordinary coping fails. They explore initiation as guided "death, burial, resurrection," historically tied to near-death clarity, with compassion distinguishing it from abuse, and note women are "initiated by nature" while men often need imposed rites. They relate initiation to martial arts as modern mystery schools: sacred space, gi/belt symbolism, told-shown-done learning, humility, trust, and moving from technique to principle and "no habit." They cover Nietzsche's camel-lion-child, three paths (hardship, self-study, surrender), boredom as a gatekeeper, devotion vs outcome-seeking, and responsibility as the warrior ethic.   00:00 Welcome and Updates 01:08 Meet Jason Hawkins 01:50 Why People Change 03:04 Pain vs Suffering Story 03:59 Yoga Sutras and Now 06:02 Transformation Not Habits 10:02 Gross to Subtle Path 13:32 What Is Initiation Today 16:35 Near Death and Rites 21:59 Pete's Grandfather Lesson 25:57 Mysteries and Three Steps 31:27 Nietzsche Camel Lion Child 36:21 Iron John Colors and Jiu Jitsu 38:22 Pick Your Moment 38:33 No Habit Mastery 38:46 Rolling With My Son 40:33 Skill Stages Explained 42:01 Mystery School Question 45:05 Sacred Space Rituals 48:13 False Danger Real Growth 52:00 Practice Reverence Discipline 54:16 Warrior Responsibility 01:01:03 Mystery Cannot Be Told 01:04:03 Miracles And Attention 01:05:57 Boredom Gatekeeper 01:08:16 Devotion Over Discipline 01:11:50 Closing Reflections

Alicia Rush was in crisis and had reached the point where she no longer wanted to live. She gathered her medication and headed toward the woods, but then remembered it was her son's birthday — a moment that interrupted her plan and helped pull her back. It was not the only time Alicia felt that level of hopelessness. After thyroid cancer left her living with a tracheostomy, she felt isolated in her trauma and unsure how she could face the rest of her life.     Alicia never imagined that cancer would take away her voice — twice. After surviving two tracheostomies, multiple surgeries, and life-threatening complications, she discovered something even more powerful than words: the strength to keep sharing her story.   Today, Alicia speaks to anyone who has felt hopeless, reminding them that even in the darkest moments, there can still be a reason to hold on.           Two trachs. Two near-deaths. And a powerful new purpose born from the pain. What if surviving cancer wasn't the hardest part? At fifty, Alicia Baca Rush thought she was preparing for a new chapter in her life — but nothing could have prepared her for what came next. Diagnosed with Stage 2 thyroid cancer, Alicia faced more than surgeries and hospital rooms; she faced losing her voice, her independence, and nearly her life — twice. In this raw, heart-wrenching, and ultimately uplifting memoir, Alicia shares her extraordinary journey through not one but two tracheotomies, life-threatening complications, and a relentless fight to reclaim her identity. She opens the door on moments few dare to speak about — the betrayal of a failing medical system, the loneliness of healing, and the emotional scars that linger long after the physical ones fade. But this isn't just a story of survival. It's a story of resilience. Of finding purpose in pain, of discovering that even when your voice is reduced to a whisper, your message can roar louder than ever. Perfect for readers navigating illness, trauma, or personal reinvention, The Good Kind of Cancer is a beacon of hope, honesty, and fierce determination. Alicia doesn't shy away from the hard truths — including the fear, the setbacks, and the two times she nearly died — but she also shows us what's possible when you choose to turn pain into power. If you or someone you love has ever wondered "Why me?", this book will remind you that even in your darkest moments, you are not alone — and that every breath you fight for has meaning.

Brian interviews four-time Grammy-winning music producer Ricky "Slikk Muzik" Offord about his new book, 33 Days Between Heaven and Hell. Ricky, who has produced for artists including Kirk Franklin, Lecrae, Ariana Grande, and Tori Kelly, shares the harrowing story of a routine gallbladder surgery in 2016 that led to a 33-day coma, multiple cardiac arrests, and an out-of-body experience where he encountered a vast line of people from every nation waiting before heaven's gates. He describes praying for a second chance and vowing to share his story and rededicate his life to Christ, and how that encounter transformed him from simply a successful producer into a man driven by his faith and a calling to point others toward Jesus.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

What if everything you believed about Jesus, worthiness, and unconditional love changed in a single moment?In this profound conversation, Bridget Cook-Burch shares the extraordinary story of her near-death experience after a life-threatening illness in her early twenties. Meeting Yeshua transformed not only her understanding of God but also her understanding of herself. She reveals what she learned about unconditional love, why our deepest wounds often become our greatest purpose, and how the stories we tell ourselves shape every aspect of our lives.Together, we explore the true nature of Yeshua beyond religious doctrine, how fear and shame keep us disconnected from our divine identity, the power of rewriting our personal story, and why every dark night of the soul is an invitation into greater consciousness. Bridget also shares how her near-death experience awakened extraordinary intuition, allowing her to help others heal by discovering the deeper meaning hidden within their own life stories.This conversation is an inspiring reminder that no matter how broken we believe ourselves to be, we are never beyond love, redemption, or transformation.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.

In today's episode of Backpacker Radio presented by The Trek, brought to you by Topo Athletic, we are joined by Shawn Mahoney, aka the guy who carries a 20+ pound log named Larry over his shoulders, and with Larry he's hiked the Triple Crowner, Te Araroa, and just about all of the Northeast peaks. In this one, Shawn explains why the heck he carries a massive log everywhere he goes, describes losing Larry down a steep slope  on the PCT and spending two hours bushwhacking to retrieve him, recounts nearly dying from a septic heart infection and medically induced coma- and the impact that's had on his passion for backpacking, and details how he waking up at 4am, or earlier, to bank miles pre-sunrise. We also cover how he's raised several thousand dollars for charity, how you can contribute to his latest cause, his refusal to cook or cold-soak, and his party trick of solving a 9x9 rubik's cube while hiking, something he accomplishes mid interview. We wrap the show with Trek Propaganda of Kelly's favorite thru-hiking memories, a heroic dog intimidating a black bear to save a kid's life - maybe, a trail debate on losing your spoon vs. your shelter, the Triple Crown of movies everyone loves but you hate, and I review the uber-popular FarPointe Sun Hoodie but you'll probably have to wait til Thursday for that one so kinda nevermind.

Dr. Rana Awdish is one of those rare humans who can speak from both sides of the hospital bed with complete authority, and somehow make you feel understood in the process. She's a critical care physician whose first book, In Shock, is a landmark medical memoir about becoming critically ill on the last day of her fellowship in her own ICU and it was one of the books that helped Kristin make sense of her own co-survivor experience after my cardiac arrest. Rana's new book is Aftershock: Learning to Reinhabit My Body After Illness, and it picks up where In Shock left off: not the dramatic part, but the harder part, the years of PTSD, the process of learning to trust her own body again, and the realization that medicine doesn't own healing. We talk about her experience of being repeatedly hospitalized in her own ICU, the embodiment work she had to do to unlearn what medical training takes from you, and the specific, extraordinary moment when she was sitting at her window watching snow that looked like dividing cells and understood, with total certainty, that she had cancer, before any test confirmed it. She then tried to schedule her own surgery before the pathology came back. The biopsy came back positive. Her body was right. Kristin asks us both the question I've been avoiding: is humor a deflection? I can't fully say it isn't. There's a pretty direct line between making a wearable defibrillator comedy video the moment I got home from the hospital and not having fully processed what happened. Rana's concept of "externalizing", putting difficult things outside yourself so they live somewhere other than inside your body, maps uncomfortably well onto what I do. We also get into interoception (a new word for me, as Kristin noted with zero surprise), moral injury, and what Rana would tell healthcare professionals who reflexively dismiss patients who say they know something is wrong. She's a professor at two medical schools, and the line I keep thinking about is this: "There's so much in our training that causes us to believe we have to have the answer or we have no value." This is one you'll want to sit with for a bit. I'm still sitting with it. Takeaways: Medicine doesn't own healing.

Step into a soul-stirring and consciousness-opening conversation with Kelly Mason, founder of Kula Paradise Academy, on this episode of Intimate Conversations: Dark Night to Divine Light. Kelly's work bridges nervous system regulation, conscious leadership, healing, and spiritual awakening through a grounded blend of lived experience, transformational education, and deep intuitive wisdom. With a background in filmmaking, humanitarian leadership, and energy healing, Kelly brings a perspective that invites us to see life not as random chaos, but as a sacred unfolding of the soul. Kelly vulnerably shares the life-altering horseback accident that became the catalyst for her awakening. After being thrown from a galloping racehorse in Tobago, breaking her arm catastrophically, and experiencing what she describes as crossing briefly to "the other side," she returned with a profound awareness of consciousness, healing, and the deeper intelligence guiding life itself. What doctors believed would require a prosthetic arm became what they later called a documented medical miracle. We explore how that near-death experience initiated Kelly's journey away from identity-based success in the film industry and into a deeper calling rooted in service, healing, and soul remembrance. She opens up about surrendering the life she once knew, following intuitive guidance to Costa Rica as a single mother, and ultimately uncovering her life's mission through unexpected paths that included community activism, environmental innovation, and transformational healing work. We also dive into the vision behind Kula Paradise Academy and its transformational framework built around four levels: Activation, Magnetic, Sovereign, and Legacy. Kelly explains how the academy is designed to help individuals move beyond fragmented healing approaches into sustainable embodiment, self-awareness, sovereignty, and service-driven leadership.  We also talk about: Near-death experiences and spiritual awakening Nervous system regulation and embodied healing Soul contracts, predestination, and divine timing Manifestation, frequency, and magnetic alignment Conscious parenting and emotional coherence Humanitarian work and environmental activism The role of suffering in soul evolution Legacy leadership and conscious education How intuition guides purpose and service The power of surrendering identity to follow your calling Why healing is less about fixing yourself and more about remembering who you truly are This episode is a beautiful reminder that life often redirects us through our greatest breakdowns, heartbreaks, and unexpected detours. Kelly's story reveals how surrender, service, and trust can transform even the darkest nights into pathways of profound purpose, healing, and divine light.

What if the most dangerous move the enemy makes against you doesn't feel like an attack at all? Dan Burke — author, speaker, trainer of clergy, and former president of EWTN News sits down with Ryan Bethea and Father Martins to break down one of the most overlooked concepts in spiritual warfare: false peace. Dan draws on the discernment tradition of Saint Ignatius of Loyola to show how the enemy offers counterfeit comfort at two very different stages of the Christian life. For those struggling with habitual sin, he manufactures apparent pleasure that mimics peace. For those genuinely advancing in holiness, he engineers distractions that look like blessings- good things in the wrong priority.Thank You To Our SponsorsOllie. Feed the Obsession.

In August 2005, one of the most powerful storms ever recorded in the Gulf of Mexico barrelled toward the United States. When Hurricane Katrina finally struck land, it devastated hundreds of miles of shoreline, but the disaster that captured the world's attention unfolded in one place above all: the city of New Orleans.   Within hours of the storm passing, the flood defence levees meant to protect the city broke, and it began to fill with water. What followed the natural disaster was a crisis that raised profound questions about preparedness, inequality, and the ability and willingness of a modern nation to protect one of its own great cities.   But why was New Orleans so vulnerable in the first place? What was the response in the wake of the hurricane and flooding? And what did the disaster reveal about the systems of engineering, government and society that were supposed to protect it? This is a Short History Of Hurricane Katrina. A Noiser podcast production. Hosted by John Hopkins. With thanks to Jed Horne, a Pulitzer Prize-winning reporter and author of Breach of Faith: Hurricane Katrina and the Near Death of a Great American City.

What does one do when one finds oneself nose to absence of nose with those who claim they are on a mighty quest to save that which they themselves have admittingly destroyed? Fortuitously encountering you, along their journey for Sur-thrival and deemed lucky you scoop-up-able simply for being in their path. Like so much wildlife in some sort of unannounced breeding program that you remain ignorantly unaware of the role that you play concerning their “cosmic” visions for some grand design or even just a simple curiosity. Thank you for joining us as we ponder the peculiar puzzle that is the genetic interest and undertaking of the exceptionally icky. Is this Woo Woo just trying to get its Freak on? Or is this something much more disturbing? For our Plus+ extension, we cover Anita Moorjani's Dying to Be Me, one of the most remarkable and widely discussed near-death experience accounts of the modern era. We follow her journey from a multicultural upbringing in Hong Kong, through years of fear, people-pleasing, and a devastating battle with lymphoma, to the extraordinary experience she reported during a 2006 coma and the unexpected recovery that followed. Along the way, we explore identity, mortality, and the idea that sometimes the hardest thing in life is simply being yourself.
