The Telepathy Tapes

When five-year-old Chase Bowman developed an inexplicable terror of loud booming sounds, his mother, Carol, had no idea what was causing it. Then, sitting on her lap at their kitchen table, Chase began describing another life: a soldier on a battlefield, a gun with a bayonet, a wound to his wrist, and ultimately, his own death. What happened afterward was just as startling. The chronic eczema on Chase’s wrist cleared, and his debilitating fear of loud noises disappeared.For Carol, that moment changed everything. A stay-at-home mom with no background in science or reincarnation research, she became determined to understand what had happened to her son. Were experiences like Chase’s real? Were other children having them? How common are these memories in the West, especially in Judeo-Christian families like hers? Could simply remembering and talking about these memories somehow help children heal? Her search would lead her to the work of pioneering researcher Ian Stevenson and eventually beyond her own family, as Carol began looking for other American parents whose children were describing memories they couldn’t explain. Was she uncovering something hidden in plain sight about memory, consciousness, and what survives death? Or were parents simply finding meaning in experiences that could be explained by more conventional means?_______Join The Telepathy Tapes Backstage Pass to get ad-free episodes, never-before-heard interviews, behind-the-scenes documentary footage, and access to our private Discord community.

At 17 months old, Caelum Miller suffered a near-fatal drowning that left him with a severe traumatic brain injury. Doctors told his family he would likely remain in a vegetative state for the rest of his life. But his parents refused to close the door on what might be possible.Years later, Caelum learned to communicate through facilitated communication and began sharing thoughts, memories, and experiences that his family says challenged everything they understood about his consciousness.In this episode, Caelum and his mother, Anne-Marie, tell the story of his remarkable recovery and the moment communication changed everything. Caelum describes what he says he experienced while outside his body, including an encounter with a deceased musician he had never met, and shares his perspective on God, consciousness, and what he believes happens beyond this physical world.We also hear from Anne-Marie about the skepticism surrounding facilitated communication, the years of journals documenting Caelum's words, and what it has meant for their family to discover a voice they were once told they would never hear._______Join The Telepathy Tapes Backstage Pass to get ad-free episodes, never-before-heard interviews, behind-the-scenes documentary footage, and access to our private Discord community.

Grammy-nominated artist Willow Smith joins Ky Dickens for a deeply personal conversation about music as medicine, dreams as creative portals, spirituality, and the mystery of human connection.Willow shares how a lifetime of curiosity - from sacred traditions and nature to science and consciousness - has shaped her creative life. She reflects on music as a devotional and communal practice, the role of intuition in her songwriting, and the profound experiences that have expanded her sense of what may be possible.She also discusses “Talk On The Hill,” her beautiful song from her newest album The Thread, inspired by the non-speakers of The Telepathy Tapes and the extraordinary possibilities of communication beyond words._______Join The Telepathy Tapes Backstage Pass to get ad-free episodes, never-before-heard interviews, behind-the-scenes documentary footage, and access to our private Discord community.

In Season 2 of The Consciousness Cassettes, Ky explored a groundbreaking study at MD Anderson Cancer Center examining energy healing, also known as biofield therapy, in pancreatic cancer cells and mice. Now, that research has officially been published.Ky returns to the study with integrative oncologist Dr. Santosh Rao and Meredith Sprengel, Research and Program Director of the Subtle Energy Funders Collective. Together, they unpack the study’s most compelling findings, including slower cancer cell growth, reduced invasiveness, and significantly fewer visible liver metastases in some of the mouse experiments.Together they go behind the scenes of the scientific process to examine why frontier research can be so difficult to fund, study, and publish, especially when its proposed mechanism does not fit neatly within the current scientific paradigm. What does peer review actually involve? Why was the paper withdrawn shortly before publication by one journal? And what will it take to move energy healing research forward?The publication gives scientists something concrete to replicate, challenge, and build upon, inviting us all to approach the unexplained as open-minded skeptics._______Learn more about the MD Anderson Cancer Center research and find the full research publication by visiting our non-profit partner https://www.phenomenahealing.com/mdandersonresearch_______Join The Telepathy Tapes Backstage Pass to get ad-free episodes, never-before-heard interviews, behind-the-scenes documentary footage, and access to our private Discord community.

Why is everyone suddenly talking about ibogaine?After President Trump signed an executive order fast-tracking psychedelic research, a little-known plant medicine from Central Africa found itself at the center of a national conversation. Advocates call it a breakthrough for addiction, PTSD, and traumatic brain injury. Critics urge caution. But how did we get here?In the first episode of The Ibogaine Inquiries, Ky Dickens and Katherine Ellis trace ibogaine's unlikely path from sacred ceremonies in Gabon to veterans seeking healing in Mexico, and ultimately to the halls of American politics. Along the way, former Texas Governor Rick Perry, Admiral Jim Hancock, and physician Dr. Martín Polanco share the personal experiences that transformed them from skeptics into advocates.A note to listeners: This series is intended to inform, not encourage the use of ibogaine. Ibogaine is a powerful psychoactive substance with serious medical risks and should never be used without thorough medical evaluation and appropriate supervision. As you'll hear throughout this series, increasing global demand has also had profound consequences for the Indigenous communities in Gabon who have safeguarded Iboga and its traditions for generations. We encourage you to listen to the full series before drawing conclusions or seeking out treatment._______To support the indigenous peoples of Gabon, Africa and help protect the sacred Iboga plant, please visit https://blessingsoftheforest.org/ where you can learn about those who use this medicine ceremoniously, have for thousands of years, and whose access is in grave danger._______Join The Telepathy Tapes Backstage Pass to get ad-free episodes, never-before-heard interviews, behind-the-scenes documentary footage, and access to our private Discord community.This is your invitation to come closer.
