I have been on the flip 21 00:01:11,640 --> 00:01:15,240 Speaker 1: side lately, you know, trying to dodge COVID bullets wherever 22 00:01:15,280 --> 00:01:17,640 Speaker 1: we go. This is really hard to I just came 23 00:01:17,680 --> 00:01:20,120 Speaker 1: back from a trip to Vegas, where you know, I 24 00:01:20,160 --> 00:01:23,000 Speaker 1: call that my super spread or city, and it was just, 25 00:01:23,080 --> 00:01:25,280 Speaker 1: you know, it was amazing. What were a group of 26 00:01:25,280 --> 00:01:28,200 Speaker 1: friends and of course everybody came down with some version 27 00:01:28,240 --> 00:01:30,959 Speaker 1: of it. Anyway, I've been good. How have you been? 28 00:01:31,200 --> 00:01:33,479 Speaker 1: I'm good? But were you a witness to the ben 29 00:01:33,480 --> 00:01:37,600 Speaker 1: affleck in Jennifer Lopez wedding that they had Saturday? No 30 00:01:37,920 --> 00:01:40,479 Speaker 1: And you know, you wonder I did read that they 31 00:01:40,480 --> 00:01:43,640 Speaker 1: were at the Elvis Chapel and that the sort of 32 00:01:43,680 --> 00:01:47,560 Speaker 1: the the upper graded version. You actually got an Elvis 33 00:01:47,560 --> 00:01:51,480 Speaker 1: impersonator in your bed. So but you know, listen, thank 34 00:01:51,480 --> 00:01:56,400 Speaker 1: you very much. What's really crazy for me is Jennifer 35 00:01:56,440 --> 00:01:58,440 Speaker 1: Schaefer and I you know I mentioned her before. She 36 00:01:58,480 --> 00:02:02,120 Speaker 1: works with law enforcement on missing person cases. We did 37 00:02:02,120 --> 00:02:05,280 Speaker 1: this podcast called Hacking You Afterlife. Now we've had some 38 00:02:05,400 --> 00:02:09,080 Speaker 1: amazing people show up to talk to us. And I 39 00:02:09,200 --> 00:02:13,200 Speaker 1: mentioned Elvis because I went to see the movie while 40 00:02:13,240 --> 00:02:15,000 Speaker 1: I was in Vegas. I thought, what a perfect place 41 00:02:15,040 --> 00:02:17,240 Speaker 1: to see it. Did you like it? Oh? I loved it. 42 00:02:17,320 --> 00:02:20,640 Speaker 1: I'm a fan of Baz Luhrman. But at the same time, 43 00:02:21,240 --> 00:02:24,000 Speaker 1: I wasn't that huge of a fan of Elvis when 44 00:02:24,000 --> 00:02:26,520 Speaker 1: he was alive, But watching the movie and gave me 45 00:02:26,560 --> 00:02:29,880 Speaker 1: a whole different appreciation for him. And then plus the 46 00:02:29,960 --> 00:02:33,320 Speaker 1: fact that he's shown up in a number of our 47 00:02:33,480 --> 00:02:38,520 Speaker 1: sessions where we're doing our podcast and Jennifer says Elvis 48 00:02:38,639 --> 00:02:41,679 Speaker 1: is here and without I'm not going to contradict her, 49 00:02:42,240 --> 00:02:45,560 Speaker 1: but I will say, why what's he doing here? And 50 00:02:45,680 --> 00:02:48,320 Speaker 1: the most recent visit was after I saw the film. 51 00:02:48,360 --> 00:02:51,600 Speaker 1: He wanted to talk about it. He wanted to talk 52 00:02:51,639 --> 00:02:55,080 Speaker 1: about how great the actor was. The kid who played 53 00:02:56,960 --> 00:02:59,240 Speaker 1: looked just like him, and he said he played him 54 00:02:59,280 --> 00:03:01,959 Speaker 1: better than he played himself. That was the funny line. 55 00:03:03,120 --> 00:03:05,520 Speaker 1: He thought maybe he put a little too much makeup on. 56 00:03:05,760 --> 00:03:07,919 Speaker 1: That was a comment that he made. But I said, 57 00:03:07,960 --> 00:03:10,440 Speaker 1: you know, Elvis, this is so I look, it's funny 58 00:03:10,480 --> 00:03:12,680 Speaker 1: even to say his name. No one's going to believe 59 00:03:12,720 --> 00:03:15,799 Speaker 1: that I'm talking to you. How what give me some 60 00:03:16,000 --> 00:03:19,560 Speaker 1: detail about your life that only your wife Priscilla would know, 61 00:03:20,560 --> 00:03:24,800 Speaker 1: and he said that there's a ring that she has 62 00:03:24,919 --> 00:03:27,520 Speaker 1: that his mother owned. Now that you know that might 63 00:03:27,560 --> 00:03:30,120 Speaker 1: be common knowledge to everybody. I don't know. I don't know. 64 00:03:30,160 --> 00:03:33,720 Speaker 1: I have no idea, but I figured, you know, that's 65 00:03:33,760 --> 00:03:36,400 Speaker 1: the kind of detail that you get when you do 66 00:03:36,480 --> 00:03:39,800 Speaker 1: this kind of work where it's only specific for the 67 00:03:39,840 --> 00:03:42,880 Speaker 1: person who's asking. It's not for the whole world to 68 00:03:42,880 --> 00:03:44,520 Speaker 1: find out that you can talk to people on the 69 00:03:44,560 --> 00:03:48,000 Speaker 1: other side. It's for the loved one. And in an 70 00:03:48,040 --> 00:03:51,880 Speaker 1: earlier trip, he came by to visit us. It was 71 00:03:51,920 --> 00:03:53,520 Speaker 1: sort of out of the blow and I said, so, 72 00:03:53,680 --> 00:03:56,360 Speaker 1: what does he want to say? And he said that 73 00:03:56,720 --> 00:03:59,600 Speaker 1: he wanted to talk about who greeted him on the 74 00:03:59,640 --> 00:04:02,680 Speaker 1: other side. And I said, well, you told us before 75 00:04:02,760 --> 00:04:04,880 Speaker 1: that it was your mother. He said, yes, but I 76 00:04:04,920 --> 00:04:08,000 Speaker 1: was greeted by a child that I was supposed to 77 00:04:08,040 --> 00:04:12,400 Speaker 1: have but didn't have. And I said, was that with Priscilla? 78 00:04:12,440 --> 00:04:15,480 Speaker 1: He said, no, it was with someone else. He said, 79 00:04:15,760 --> 00:04:18,920 Speaker 1: but that child greeted me on the other side with 80 00:04:19,040 --> 00:04:23,560 Speaker 1: such unconditional love that I was overwhelmed by it. Might 81 00:04:23,600 --> 00:04:26,520 Speaker 1: it have been his twin brother who died at would 82 00:04:26,520 --> 00:04:29,000 Speaker 1: make sense, But no, he was talking about a child 83 00:04:29,040 --> 00:04:31,120 Speaker 1: he was supposed to have with a girl that he 84 00:04:31,320 --> 00:04:34,839 Speaker 1: had a love affair with. I think I know who 85 00:04:34,880 --> 00:04:39,039 Speaker 1: that is. But whoever that was that he said, he 86 00:04:39,120 --> 00:04:42,120 Speaker 1: said something fascinating that I couldn't make up. He said, 87 00:04:42,160 --> 00:04:45,560 Speaker 1: I was loved by many, many people, but I never 88 00:04:45,680 --> 00:04:49,480 Speaker 1: felt that kind of unconditional love that I felt from 89 00:04:49,480 --> 00:04:53,839 Speaker 1: this child in my lifetime. Did the child obviously pass on, well, 90 00:04:53,839 --> 00:04:55,960 Speaker 1: the child, yes, the child never came to term, so 91 00:04:56,400 --> 00:04:59,760 Speaker 1: there was some must have been a miscarriage. But the 92 00:05:00,040 --> 00:05:02,240 Speaker 1: point being what he was trying to impart and the 93 00:05:02,279 --> 00:05:04,800 Speaker 1: reason he showed up to talk about this, he wants 94 00:05:04,839 --> 00:05:08,159 Speaker 1: people to know. He wanted people to know that those 95 00:05:08,240 --> 00:05:14,000 Speaker 1: children don't disappear, they don't they exist, and that when 96 00:05:14,040 --> 00:05:17,640 Speaker 1: you cross over you're greeted by them. Those children that 97 00:05:17,720 --> 00:05:21,159 Speaker 1: you were going to have you didn't have, they're there 98 00:05:21,200 --> 00:05:25,320 Speaker 1: to greet you. Their essences there, they're being their higher consciousness. 99 00:05:26,000 --> 00:05:28,000 Speaker 1: I mean, it's such a profound thing for him to say, 100 00:05:28,040 --> 00:05:30,120 Speaker 1: because you know what we were talking about. It he 101 00:05:30,200 --> 00:05:32,159 Speaker 1: just came out and you know, literally out of the 102 00:05:32,160 --> 00:05:35,680 Speaker 1: blue to talk about to tell people when you lose 103 00:05:35,720 --> 00:05:38,799 Speaker 1: a child like that, you're going to see them again 104 00:05:38,880 --> 00:05:41,760 Speaker 1: once you get to the flip side. Well, since ironically, 105 00:05:41,800 --> 00:05:44,680 Speaker 1: since you mentioned Elvis, I mean, we're coming up on 106 00:05:45,240 --> 00:05:49,200 Speaker 1: his anniversary date of his death. He died August sixteenth, 107 00:05:49,360 --> 00:05:53,800 Speaker 1: nineteen seventy seven, right, he was only forty two years old. Amazing, 108 00:05:54,320 --> 00:05:57,599 Speaker 1: it really is amazing. And I just after watching the 109 00:05:57,640 --> 00:05:59,799 Speaker 1: movie now I'm watching you know a lot of Elvis 110 00:06:00,040 --> 00:06:04,240 Speaker 1: knows to see what his journey was like, and it's fascinating. 111 00:06:04,279 --> 00:06:07,080 Speaker 1: The guy had so much, so much anyway, you know, 112 00:06:07,720 --> 00:06:10,280 Speaker 1: people know how talent he was. But what I think 113 00:06:10,400 --> 00:06:13,840 Speaker 1: is fascinating is when he shows up in our podcast, 114 00:06:13,960 --> 00:06:16,080 Speaker 1: let's say, and he's done it about four or five 115 00:06:16,120 --> 00:06:20,120 Speaker 1: times now, where he wants to talk about the process 116 00:06:20,160 --> 00:06:23,960 Speaker 1: and he seems very well. For example, I asked him 117 00:06:23,960 --> 00:06:26,560 Speaker 1: about Colonel Parker. I said, so, you know, what was 118 00:06:26,600 --> 00:06:29,240 Speaker 1: it like when he crossed over, you know, because he'd 119 00:06:29,279 --> 00:06:32,400 Speaker 1: stifled you your entire life and your career. He said no, 120 00:06:33,120 --> 00:06:35,880 Speaker 1: because Tom and I had had that experience in a 121 00:06:35,920 --> 00:06:40,200 Speaker 1: previous lifetime where the roles were reversed that in a 122 00:06:40,320 --> 00:06:44,200 Speaker 1: previous lifetime, he was the guy who kept Parker from 123 00:06:44,240 --> 00:06:46,440 Speaker 1: doing all the things that he was supposed to do 124 00:06:46,480 --> 00:06:51,159 Speaker 1: in life. And they celebrated each other because that idea 125 00:06:51,240 --> 00:06:53,919 Speaker 1: of you get to see the role you played in 126 00:06:53,960 --> 00:06:56,760 Speaker 1: your lifetime may have been planned in advance. And that's 127 00:06:56,760 --> 00:07:00,120 Speaker 1: what he's saying, that they had done that before the 128 00:07:00,240 --> 00:07:03,520 Speaker 1: roles had been reversed. You know, what a weird way 129 00:07:03,520 --> 00:07:06,760 Speaker 1: to look at it. Just that idea that I think 130 00:07:06,800 --> 00:07:09,159 Speaker 1: it's fascinating to hear from people on the flip side 131 00:07:09,240 --> 00:07:12,040 Speaker 1: that they may have played a reverse role in a 132 00:07:12,080 --> 00:07:16,440 Speaker 1: previous lifetime. Does that make sense? Yeah, it does, it does, 133 00:07:17,000 --> 00:07:19,680 Speaker 1: all right. Anyways, let's go back to hacking the afterlife. 134 00:07:19,680 --> 00:07:23,480 Speaker 1: How did you get involved in finding the dead? Well, 135 00:07:23,560 --> 00:07:26,800 Speaker 1: it's a you know, as I'm as you mentioned in 136 00:07:26,800 --> 00:07:30,480 Speaker 1: the introduction, my friend Lawana Anders, who had passed away 137 00:07:30,520 --> 00:07:33,200 Speaker 1: in my arms back in nineteen ninety six. I was 138 00:07:33,240 --> 00:07:38,040 Speaker 1: a filmmaker, just an average schmo in Hollywood, jaded skeptic guy. 139 00:07:38,680 --> 00:07:42,400 Speaker 1: But she started showing up in my dreams and in stories. 140 00:07:42,960 --> 00:07:45,360 Speaker 1: Other people would start talking about they had a dream 141 00:07:45,360 --> 00:07:48,560 Speaker 1: about her. And then I had an experience where she 142 00:07:48,680 --> 00:07:51,240 Speaker 1: took me into deep space. I had. I had an experience. 143 00:07:51,280 --> 00:07:54,000 Speaker 1: It was not unlike the movie Contact. You know, remember 144 00:07:54,000 --> 00:07:58,320 Speaker 1: when Jodie Foster goes into another realm. That happened to me. 145 00:07:58,760 --> 00:08:01,360 Speaker 1: This was before the movie came. That happened to me. 146 00:08:01,400 --> 00:08:04,400 Speaker 1: I felt like I went into a wormhole in deep space. 147 00:08:04,880 --> 00:08:07,680 Speaker 1: And when I got through this wormhole, there was my 148 00:08:07,720 --> 00:08:10,800 Speaker 1: friend Luanna waiting for me, and she said, you were 149 00:08:10,840 --> 00:08:12,800 Speaker 1: thinking about me. You were wondering what happened to me? 150 00:08:12,960 --> 00:08:15,560 Speaker 1: This is where I am. That led me on this 151 00:08:15,680 --> 00:08:17,640 Speaker 1: journey of trying to figure out, well, if she can 152 00:08:17,680 --> 00:08:20,360 Speaker 1: come and visit me and pull me into deep space, 153 00:08:20,920 --> 00:08:23,760 Speaker 1: how do I go visit her? And that's what took 154 00:08:23,800 --> 00:08:26,720 Speaker 1: me down this path to find people like Michael Newton, 155 00:08:27,160 --> 00:08:31,800 Speaker 1: hypnotherapists who would put you under you do hypnosis to 156 00:08:31,880 --> 00:08:35,040 Speaker 1: allow you to access this stuff. And so since then 157 00:08:35,720 --> 00:08:39,120 Speaker 1: with Lauanna's help, and she's been very helpful in our 158 00:08:39,200 --> 00:08:42,680 Speaker 1: podcast because she does the same thing that Jennifer does 159 00:08:42,679 --> 00:08:44,440 Speaker 1: on this side, she does it on the other side. 160 00:08:44,920 --> 00:08:47,880 Speaker 1: She's the person who lines up the people who are 161 00:08:47,880 --> 00:08:51,120 Speaker 1: going to come and talk to us in our classroom. 162 00:08:52,160 --> 00:08:58,760 Speaker 1: Were you particularly gifted when you were a kid? Well, 163 00:08:58,920 --> 00:09:00,959 Speaker 1: I know it's your question, and is you know I 164 00:09:01,000 --> 00:09:05,480 Speaker 1: would say no, but yes, I've ever since I was 165 00:09:05,480 --> 00:09:08,400 Speaker 1: a little kid, I saw ghosts. I would see things 166 00:09:08,480 --> 00:09:10,800 Speaker 1: that I didn't understand. And I remember asking my dad, 167 00:09:10,840 --> 00:09:12,719 Speaker 1: you know, and he said saying, he said, no, let's 168 00:09:12,760 --> 00:09:15,600 Speaker 1: not sting as ghost. So I believed what he was 169 00:09:15,640 --> 00:09:18,400 Speaker 1: telling me that there wasn't such a thing. And it 170 00:09:18,440 --> 00:09:23,040 Speaker 1: wasn't until I started this research that I finally admitted 171 00:09:23,160 --> 00:09:26,559 Speaker 1: that I had seen people on the flip side. And 172 00:09:26,600 --> 00:09:29,960 Speaker 1: I think we've talked about this once before where I 173 00:09:30,080 --> 00:09:33,959 Speaker 1: was in Australia staying at Philip Noyce's house, film director, 174 00:09:34,679 --> 00:09:37,320 Speaker 1: and I woke up and I saw a guy hanging 175 00:09:37,360 --> 00:09:41,199 Speaker 1: from the ceiling by a noose and I startled a 176 00:09:41,240 --> 00:09:43,640 Speaker 1: wig and the guy looked at me and said, in 177 00:09:43,640 --> 00:09:46,760 Speaker 1: an Australian action, you know, terribly sorry, It's just something 178 00:09:46,800 --> 00:09:48,560 Speaker 1: I feel the need to do. And then he climbed 179 00:09:48,559 --> 00:09:51,760 Speaker 1: on a ladder that had appeared under nowhere and disappeared. 180 00:09:51,800 --> 00:09:54,959 Speaker 1: And when I spoke to Philip's wife later on that day, 181 00:09:55,000 --> 00:09:57,160 Speaker 1: I said, hey, what's up with your ghost? So what 182 00:09:57,200 --> 00:09:59,040 Speaker 1: are you talking about? I said, well, I saw this 183 00:09:59,080 --> 00:10:01,720 Speaker 1: guy dressed like a painter who was hanging from a noose, 184 00:10:01,720 --> 00:10:04,959 Speaker 1: and you know, he apologized and left and she said, well, 185 00:10:05,000 --> 00:10:07,840 Speaker 1: the guy who painted our house did hang himself, but 186 00:10:07,960 --> 00:10:10,280 Speaker 1: that was a few miles away, and I said, well, 187 00:10:10,880 --> 00:10:13,080 Speaker 1: I think he liked hanging out at your house because 188 00:10:13,080 --> 00:10:17,080 Speaker 1: he's still hanging around. But I'm bump. But so I 189 00:10:17,240 --> 00:10:20,560 Speaker 1: realized that I was seeing things or seeing people that 190 00:10:20,800 --> 00:10:24,319 Speaker 1: our tone exists that aren't there. I just was ignoring it. 191 00:10:24,679 --> 00:10:27,760 Speaker 1: And now that I'm doing this research, I don't ignore 192 00:10:27,760 --> 00:10:29,839 Speaker 1: it so much. Do you summon them up or do 193 00:10:29,960 --> 00:10:33,760 Speaker 1: they just show up? Well, I'll give you an example. 194 00:10:35,160 --> 00:10:38,200 Speaker 1: And this has happened more than once. And so Jennifer 195 00:10:38,240 --> 00:10:39,880 Speaker 1: and I have been doing this. You know, we've been 196 00:10:39,920 --> 00:10:42,480 Speaker 1: doing this work for seven years. Every week I meet 197 00:10:42,520 --> 00:10:45,000 Speaker 1: with her and I filmed her talking to the other side. 198 00:10:45,040 --> 00:10:48,079 Speaker 1: And that's been the basis of our books, Backstage Passed 199 00:10:48,080 --> 00:10:51,160 Speaker 1: to the Flip Side, and tuning into the Afterlife, which 200 00:10:51,200 --> 00:10:55,640 Speaker 1: is our latest one. And what I do is I'm asking. 201 00:10:55,760 --> 00:10:58,559 Speaker 1: Sometimes I'll drive to her office and I'll think of like, oh, 202 00:10:58,600 --> 00:11:00,719 Speaker 1: who would be an interesting person to talk to. We 203 00:11:00,840 --> 00:11:03,360 Speaker 1: did that with Paul Allen, you know, the Microsoft founder. 204 00:11:03,920 --> 00:11:05,679 Speaker 1: And you know, I'll sit down and I say, well, 205 00:11:05,720 --> 00:11:08,000 Speaker 1: I'm looking for someone, and she'll say is his name Paul? 206 00:11:08,160 --> 00:11:11,960 Speaker 1: And I'll say, yes, that's correct. Well sometimes, and this 207 00:11:12,080 --> 00:11:15,760 Speaker 1: happened a couple of weeks ago. I hear a voice 208 00:11:15,800 --> 00:11:18,960 Speaker 1: in my head, and in this case, it was Bob Saget. Now, 209 00:11:19,000 --> 00:11:20,319 Speaker 1: somebody had said to me, when are you going to 210 00:11:20,400 --> 00:11:22,719 Speaker 1: interview Bob sagan I said, well, yeah, I didn't know him, 211 00:11:22,800 --> 00:11:26,280 Speaker 1: so he's not on my list of people to contact. 212 00:11:26,840 --> 00:11:31,160 Speaker 1: But I heard his voice in my head saying, I 213 00:11:31,240 --> 00:11:33,680 Speaker 1: understand you're the person I need to talk to to 214 00:11:33,720 --> 00:11:36,440 Speaker 1: have a conversation with so I can pass messages to 215 00:11:36,520 --> 00:11:40,280 Speaker 1: my family. And I said what I say when this happens, No, 216 00:11:40,600 --> 00:11:42,840 Speaker 1: I'm not the guy. You need to find Jennifer Shaver 217 00:11:43,200 --> 00:11:46,160 Speaker 1: or find Lawanna Anders, my friend who passed away in 218 00:11:46,240 --> 00:11:49,800 Speaker 1: nineteen eighty six. She's the one who orchestrates the list, 219 00:11:49,960 --> 00:11:53,760 Speaker 1: the VIP list to talk to this class. And then 220 00:11:54,040 --> 00:11:57,800 Speaker 1: a week later I had forgotten about it and Jennifer 221 00:11:57,800 --> 00:12:00,840 Speaker 1: and I couldn't do this session. And so then another 222 00:12:00,920 --> 00:12:03,640 Speaker 1: week went by and I again he showed up in 223 00:12:03,679 --> 00:12:06,400 Speaker 1: my apartment. In my head, I heard his voice saying, okay, 224 00:12:06,520 --> 00:12:09,200 Speaker 1: I'm on the list. So that day when we did 225 00:12:09,200 --> 00:12:12,160 Speaker 1: our podcast, I said to her, so, Jennifer, I want 226 00:12:12,160 --> 00:12:13,600 Speaker 1: to talk to a guy, and she said, is his 227 00:12:13,679 --> 00:12:17,400 Speaker 1: name Robert. I said, yes it is, and this is 228 00:12:17,480 --> 00:12:20,920 Speaker 1: live on camera, and then we go through him talking. 229 00:12:21,400 --> 00:12:25,040 Speaker 1: He had messages for Jim Carrey. I had seen the 230 00:12:26,600 --> 00:12:29,800 Speaker 1: comedy documentary that that's on Netflix, where you know all 231 00:12:29,800 --> 00:12:32,480 Speaker 1: these guys wrote, you know, talked about Chris Rock and 232 00:12:32,559 --> 00:12:35,360 Speaker 1: other people and Jim Carrey, and he had messages for 233 00:12:35,440 --> 00:12:38,600 Speaker 1: his wife. Message for Jim was to get out of 234 00:12:38,600 --> 00:12:41,360 Speaker 1: his house, to get off the couch and dive into 235 00:12:41,400 --> 00:12:45,520 Speaker 1: the lightning storm, meaning Jim has to get back out 236 00:12:45,600 --> 00:12:47,840 Speaker 1: into the world and make people laugh again. But the 237 00:12:47,960 --> 00:12:51,520 Speaker 1: most astounding thing, and of course anybody listening is going 238 00:12:51,600 --> 00:12:55,640 Speaker 1: to say, what is he talking about? I said, now, 239 00:12:55,720 --> 00:12:58,280 Speaker 1: Jennifer had not seen the documentary, and I said, now, 240 00:12:58,400 --> 00:13:00,200 Speaker 1: who was there to greet him when he crossed over? 241 00:13:00,280 --> 00:13:03,120 Speaker 1: And he said she said one of his dogs was there. 242 00:13:03,600 --> 00:13:06,760 Speaker 1: And I remembered after seeing the documentary at the end 243 00:13:06,760 --> 00:13:08,240 Speaker 1: of his set. Do you know this, At the end 244 00:13:08,280 --> 00:13:10,839 Speaker 1: of his set, he would sing this song about his 245 00:13:10,880 --> 00:13:15,160 Speaker 1: dog licking a body part. Now I didn't know that, 246 00:13:15,200 --> 00:13:17,280 Speaker 1: but I saw it in the documentary, So I said, 247 00:13:17,280 --> 00:13:20,679 Speaker 1: wait a second, is the dog that greeted him on 248 00:13:20,720 --> 00:13:22,840 Speaker 1: the other side the dog that's in one of his songs. 249 00:13:22,880 --> 00:13:26,760 Speaker 1: And Jennifer said, yes, he's saying yes. And I said, so, Bob, 250 00:13:26,880 --> 00:13:30,400 Speaker 1: show her what that dog used to do. And Jennifer 251 00:13:30,520 --> 00:13:33,720 Speaker 1: froze and said, I can't say this. I can't repeat 252 00:13:33,760 --> 00:13:37,000 Speaker 1: what he's showing me. I said, you have to, and 253 00:13:37,040 --> 00:13:39,920 Speaker 1: then she said it And that's the song that Bob 254 00:13:40,040 --> 00:13:42,280 Speaker 1: Saggatt used to sing at the end of every one 255 00:13:42,320 --> 00:13:45,880 Speaker 1: of his sets. My dog licked my I won't say 256 00:13:45,920 --> 00:13:52,760 Speaker 1: what it was. Well, you know, so he died tragically 257 00:13:53,320 --> 00:13:57,440 Speaker 1: in January of this year. That's right, from a fall. 258 00:13:57,480 --> 00:13:59,280 Speaker 1: And I asked him about that because one of my 259 00:13:59,320 --> 00:14:03,720 Speaker 1: friends was curious, you know, what really happened. And his 260 00:14:04,280 --> 00:14:06,520 Speaker 1: thing was that it was a silly fall. That's the 261 00:14:06,559 --> 00:14:09,120 Speaker 1: way he put it. Was just something silly. Yeah, Apparently 262 00:14:09,120 --> 00:14:13,199 Speaker 1: he bumped his head and then laid down and then 263 00:14:13,280 --> 00:14:16,800 Speaker 1: never woke up and never woke up, and said, it happens. 264 00:14:16,840 --> 00:14:18,839 Speaker 1: You know, people get a concussion and then you get 265 00:14:18,880 --> 00:14:22,200 Speaker 1: blood in your head and stuff like that. But his 266 00:14:22,320 --> 00:14:25,600 Speaker 1: point was that it was silly. It wasn't that important 267 00:14:25,640 --> 00:14:28,000 Speaker 1: to talk about or to deal with. Because I asked, 268 00:14:28,040 --> 00:14:30,400 Speaker 1: you know, do you want to talk about that? Bob 269 00:14:30,440 --> 00:14:32,560 Speaker 1: and he didn't. He just said it was just a 270 00:14:32,600 --> 00:14:35,520 Speaker 1: silly way to go, but he really wanted to pass 271 00:14:35,560 --> 00:14:39,000 Speaker 1: along messages to his loved ones. So the reason I 272 00:14:39,080 --> 00:14:41,520 Speaker 1: do this work, the reason we're on the show, the 273 00:14:41,560 --> 00:14:44,440 Speaker 1: reason I'm talking to you, George, is because it's to 274 00:14:44,560 --> 00:14:48,120 Speaker 1: help people realize that life does go on, that your 275 00:14:48,120 --> 00:14:50,640 Speaker 1: loved ones are still there. They still want to talk 276 00:14:50,640 --> 00:14:53,440 Speaker 1: to you, and we just had to give them the 277 00:14:53,520 --> 00:14:58,440 Speaker 1: opportunity to talk to us. Sometimes in dreams, sometimes it's 278 00:14:58,520 --> 00:15:01,320 Speaker 1: just seeing them and magic them sitting across from view 279 00:15:01,320 --> 00:15:04,320 Speaker 1: and letting them nod or shake their head and asking 280 00:15:04,360 --> 00:15:08,280 Speaker 1: them questions about their journey, as opposed to what people 281 00:15:08,360 --> 00:15:11,840 Speaker 1: normally ask right where they ask for lottery numbers or 282 00:15:12,360 --> 00:15:14,400 Speaker 1: you know, how can you help me with my work? 283 00:15:14,480 --> 00:15:18,360 Speaker 1: You know, those kinds of things. So I don't know, 284 00:15:18,480 --> 00:15:22,880 Speaker 1: it's fascinating to hear people how easy it is and 285 00:15:23,080 --> 00:15:25,880 Speaker 1: you don't need a medium. It's wonderful that I work 286 00:15:25,920 --> 00:15:28,840 Speaker 1: with generas, you're so fantastic, But I've also worked with 287 00:15:28,880 --> 00:15:31,480 Speaker 1: many other mediums. You know, they're all really good at 288 00:15:31,480 --> 00:15:34,440 Speaker 1: what they do. But what I've learned is we're all mediums. 289 00:15:34,880 --> 00:15:39,040 Speaker 1: We all have filters that block this information. We can 290 00:15:39,200 --> 00:15:44,440 Speaker 1: bypass the filters by doing meditation, by having a dream, 291 00:15:45,440 --> 00:15:49,480 Speaker 1: hopefully not doing hallucinogenics, but that's one way to bypass filters. 292 00:15:49,640 --> 00:15:52,160 Speaker 1: Having a near death experience. Don't do that, but that's 293 00:15:52,200 --> 00:15:57,280 Speaker 1: another way. However, with hypnotherapy, as we've discussed, you can 294 00:15:57,360 --> 00:16:01,920 Speaker 1: bypass the filters and accesses in animation that it's really 295 00:16:02,040 --> 00:16:06,160 Speaker 1: profoundly moving this reason. I've just finished a new book. 296 00:16:06,200 --> 00:16:09,040 Speaker 1: It's not out yet, but it's about divine counsels. And 297 00:16:09,080 --> 00:16:12,400 Speaker 1: I've interviewed like dozens of people who've never heard of me, 298 00:16:12,520 --> 00:16:15,800 Speaker 1: never met me before, and the only thing they had 299 00:16:15,800 --> 00:16:18,840 Speaker 1: in common was they knew how to do a guided meditation, 300 00:16:18,920 --> 00:16:21,760 Speaker 1: and I did them a guided meditation no more than 301 00:16:21,760 --> 00:16:24,640 Speaker 1: an hour. Every single one of them was able to 302 00:16:24,680 --> 00:16:28,920 Speaker 1: access a guide and talk to their counsels. And we'll 303 00:16:28,960 --> 00:16:31,160 Speaker 1: talk about it in the future, I hope. But it's 304 00:16:31,200 --> 00:16:35,600 Speaker 1: that idea of anybody can do this, anybody can access 305 00:16:35,680 --> 00:16:37,800 Speaker 1: the loved ones on the flip side that they're no 306 00:16:37,880 --> 00:16:43,600 Speaker 1: longer talking to. What's new with Amelia Earharts. Amelia is 307 00:16:44,000 --> 00:16:47,560 Speaker 1: furious with me because she's given me all this incredible 308 00:16:47,600 --> 00:16:50,240 Speaker 1: information about her life and journey and for some reason, 309 00:16:50,640 --> 00:16:52,800 Speaker 1: I can't seem to get anyone in Hollywood to make 310 00:16:52,840 --> 00:16:56,000 Speaker 1: the film. You know, it's interesting because Hillary Swank. I 311 00:16:56,040 --> 00:16:58,840 Speaker 1: did work on the Hillary Swank movie, as you know. Yeah, 312 00:17:00,040 --> 00:17:02,360 Speaker 1: it's a shame, as as Philipinois has said to me, 313 00:17:02,360 --> 00:17:04,400 Speaker 1: because he was going to direct that film. He said, gee, 314 00:17:04,400 --> 00:17:07,360 Speaker 1: the time was wrong, you know, for you to come 315 00:17:07,359 --> 00:17:10,600 Speaker 1: out with your research after that movie was made. Of 316 00:17:10,600 --> 00:17:13,120 Speaker 1: course I was, you know, I already had the research. 317 00:17:13,200 --> 00:17:15,560 Speaker 1: I tried to get people. But you know, hope, look, 318 00:17:15,600 --> 00:17:19,480 Speaker 1: hope springs eternal. One of these days we'll figure out 319 00:17:19,480 --> 00:17:22,600 Speaker 1: how to do it. But she hasn't changed in her 320 00:17:22,720 --> 00:17:26,200 Speaker 1: story about who she was. I think I might have 321 00:17:26,280 --> 00:17:31,560 Speaker 1: mentioned it earlier. One day, Jennifer, We're doing a podcast, 322 00:17:31,640 --> 00:17:35,360 Speaker 1: and Amelia showed up with a friend of hers, and 323 00:17:35,520 --> 00:17:38,199 Speaker 1: Jennifer said, well, this is a film producer. And I said, okay, 324 00:17:38,240 --> 00:17:40,560 Speaker 1: what's his name? She said, I'm getting the name Carl. 325 00:17:41,200 --> 00:17:44,639 Speaker 1: I immediately knew who that was. But nobody listening in 326 00:17:44,760 --> 00:17:49,119 Speaker 1: wood people don't know that Amelia Earhart had been hired 327 00:17:49,160 --> 00:17:53,159 Speaker 1: by Carl Lemley, the founder of Universal Pictures, to write 328 00:17:53,280 --> 00:17:57,600 Speaker 1: and star in a movie about a pilot.
