• Talk Tracks Ep 8: The Skeptic Who Couldn’t Debunk The Telepathy Tapes

  In this episode of The Talk Tracks, we meet Becca Cramer—nuclear engineer, mother of two, and self-proclaimed skeptic—who set out to disprove the claims made in The Telepathy Tapes. What began as a rigorous attempt to debunk the series transformed into a months-long investigation that challenged her worldview. Motivated by scientific integrity, Becca combed through over 100 peer-reviewed studies, interviewed experts across fields, and meticulously examined the most common criticisms, including the infamous “ideomotor effect” or "oujia board" effect. But as she dug deeper, she found that many long-held assumptions about spelling, communication, and telepathy didn’t hold up under scrutiny. In a conversation with Telepathy Tapes coordinator Katherine Ellis, Becca shares the “aha” moments that shifted her thinking, the flawed science behind Clever Hans-style dismissals, and how the skepticism that fueled her investigation ultimately opened the door to a more expansive truth. This episode is a powerful reminder: true skepticism isn’t about cynicism—it’s about inquiry, curiosity, and the willingness to evolve in the face of new evidence. Learn more about your ad choices.

• Talk Tracks Ep 6: The Mind's Back Door: Alzheimer's and Telepathy

  Can we still connect with our loved ones when memory fades and language disappears? In this tender and eye-opening episode, The Telepathy Tapes coordinator Katherine Ellis sits down with Dan Goerke, whose wife Denise lost her ability to speak due to early-onset Alzheimer’s. What followed was something extraordinary: Dan believes their bond transformed into telepathic communication. As Denise’s verbal language faded, Dan began sensing clear thoughts and emotions from her—deep, complex messages conveyed without a single word. Their story challenges everything we assume about communication, presence, and the boundaries of consciousness. We also explore the emotional realities of caregiving, the lasting nature of love, and how Dan’s experiences have resonated with others navigating dementia and loss. This episode is a moving reminder that connection doesn’t always need words—and sometimes, it transcends them entirely. Contact Dan: [email protected] Learn more about your ad choices.

• Talk Tracks Ep 5: Unbound: When Consciousness Travels Beyond the Body

  In this riveting episode of The Talk Tracks, we explore two astonishing stories that challenge our understanding of consciousness and the limits of the human mind. First, we meet Elodie, who recounts her near-death experience at 18—a moment that profoundly altered her perception of reality. But what happened next is even more extraordinary. In a moment of deep despair, she received a telepathic message from a young, nonspeaking boy hundreds of miles away. His message not only saved her life but also revealed the profound ways in which consciousness can connect beyond physical barriers. Then, we dive into a shocking case investigated by parapsychologist Lloyd Auerbach, where a woman in hospice care unknowingly projected her consciousness into her childhood home, appearing as a ghost to the new family living there. Her body remained bedridden, yet her mind traveled freely, challenging our assumptions about the nature of life, death, and human perception. Could telepathy and consciousness extend beyond the body—even for those with dementia, Alzheimer’s, or in a coma? This episode pushes the boundaries of what we think we know about reality, connection, and the unseen forces that shape our world. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
