In this episode of Talk Tracks, Ky Dickens sits down with Peter, a nonspeaker who communicates through spelling, and his mother, Laura, to ask Peter questions submitted by our Backstage Pass listeners and hear the story of how spelling transformed their family.As Peter became an open speller, he began describing telepathy, “mind merging,” reading through his mother’s eyes, communication with other nonspeakers, spiritual encounters, and the mysterious plane many nonspeakers refer to as “the Hill.” Once told her son “wasn’t in there,” Laura describes the emotional journey of discovering Peter’s intelligence, humor, inner life, and extraordinary abilities and shares what it was like to move through disbelief, fear, awe, and acceptance as her understanding of her son and reality began to change.________________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.

Animation producer and first-time director Pilar Flynn shares the extraordinary story of a creative download that arrived during a meditation retreat beneath ancient redwoods. The experience was so specific, that it told her to adapt a beloved story by literary icon Isabel Allende, assemble a Latino creative team, and pursue an Oscar campaign.Pilar had never directed before, had no funding, and no obvious path forward. Yet one by one, impossible doors opened.In this conversation, Pilar and Ky explore intuition, ancestral guidance, magical realism, fear, worthiness, and what happens when creativity feels less like something we own and more like something that chooses us.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.

Is time really linear or is consciousness capable of accessing information beyond the present moment?In this episode of The Talk Tracks, Ky Dickens explores the growing scientific and experiential evidence surrounding precognition, remote viewing, and altered states of consciousness.After hearing remarkable accounts from non-speakers who claim to “remote view through time,” Ky speaks with neuroscientist Julia Mossbridge and psychologist Mike Sapiro about presentiment research, psi phenomena, trauma, meditation, psychedelics, and therapeutic approaches that use imagined time travel to heal the nervous system.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 this episode of Talk Tracks, Ky Dickens sits down with neuroscientist, actor, and podcast host Dr. Mayim Bialik to explore the tension between science and skepticism.With a PhD in neuroscience and a career shaped by both scientific rigor and cultural storytelling, Mayim has explored the questions on the edge of scientific understanding and that which can’t be quantified. From near-death experiences and spontaneous healing to telepathy, savant abilities, and the limits of measurement, she reflects on where the scientific method holds and where it begins to fall short.As more people share experiences that don’t neatly fit into existing frameworks, this conversation asks: what counts as evidence? And is it possible to build a framework that allows both skepticism and wonder to coexist?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 this episode of Talk Tracks, Ky Dickens sits down with Emmy Award–winning filmmaker Lynette Wallworth, whose near-death experience at age nine reshaped her understanding of reality, belonging, and what it means to die.That experience set her on a lifelong journey that led her to Indigenous communities in the Brazilian Amazon, Mexico, and Australia, where death is not feared, but understood as part of an ongoing cycle of existence. Through these relationships, she began to question a core assumption of Western culture: is our fear of death inherent, or has it been learned?Drawing from her upcoming documentary Edge of Life, Wallworth shares stories from psilocybin-assisted end-of-life trials, where patients facing terminal illness report vivid, often life-altering experiences that dissolve their fear of dying. These accounts of reunion, continuity, and peace mirror both ancient traditions and emerging scientific inquiry.What if the greatest barrier to understanding death is not the unknown but what we’ve forgotten?--------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 this episode of Talk Tracks, Ky Dickens sits down with Mo Pritzker, whose life was upended by chronic illness, leaving her bedridden for years without answers from conventional medicine.After being told there were no more options, Mo turned to neuroplasticity, the brain’s ability to rewire itself. What followed was a profound shift: not just in her health, but in how she understood the relationship between the brain, the body, and healing.Drawing from her personal recovery and her work today, Mo explores how the brain can become stuck in patterns of fear and hypervigilance, and how interrupting those patterns may begin to restore balance.What if illness isn’t only happening in the body, but in the way the brain has learned to respond?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 this episode of Talk Tracks, Ky Dickens sits down with hospice physician and researcher Dr. Christopher Kerr, whose groundbreaking work has documented the vivid, often life-affirming dreams and visions reported by patients in their final days.Drawing from studies involving over 1,500 patients, Dr. Kerr reveals a striking pattern: as death approaches, many individuals begin to experience deeply immersive encounters, often with loved ones who have passed. He explains that these are not fragmented dreams or signs of confusion, but coherent, meaningful experiences marked by clarity, emotional resolution, and a profound absence of fear.What if the end of life is not defined by fear or loss, but by a return to the people, memories, and moments that shaped us most?------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 week’s guest, Federico Faggin, helped invent the microprocessor - the technology that powers the modern world. By every measure, he had achieved success. And yet he felt something was missing.After a spontaneous and profound experience of consciousness, Federico began questioning everything he thought he knew about the nature of reality. What followed was a decades-long investigation into one of the biggest mysteries in science: not how the brain creates consciousness, but whether consciousness comes first.In this episode, Federico shares his theory that we are not our bodies, but fields of consciousness having a human experience. He explores the role of free will, the limitations of neuroscience, and why quantum physics may be pointing us toward something far deeper.We also dive into his encounters with non-speaking individuals with cerebral palsy who appear to communicate telepathically, and what their experiences might reveal about the true nature of connection.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.

What if communication can open at any age?In this episode of the Talk Tracks, Ky Dickens sits down with Betsy Hicks Russ and her son Joe, who began spelling in adulthood after decades of being underestimated. As communication opens, so does a new understanding of Joe’s inner life, his humor, his insight, his spirituality, and the depth of what he has long been aware of.Together, they explore presuming competence, the emotional transformation that comes when someone is finally able to express themselves, and the mystery of connection that can emerge between nonspeakers and those closest to them. At the heart of this episode is Joe’s message to other families regarding spelling and opening up communication for nonspeakers: it is never too late.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.
