In this episode of Talking to the Dead, I take a deep dive into Mormonism and its surprising place in modern UFO and UAP discourse, as well as talking to the dead.

I begin with a rigorous, historical overview of Mormon theology — exploring its origins, core scriptures, and expansive cosmology. Why does Mormon theology sound so cosmic compared to other Christian traditions, and how has that language been reinterpreted through a modern, sci-fi lens?

I examine real-world intersections between Mormon individuals and U.S. government power.

Mormonism is often woven into narratives about secrecy, trans-dimensional entities, and hidden knowledge — despite a lack of doctrial or institutional evidence.

Throughout, I clearly separate established history and theology from speculation, rumor, and internet mythology, asking why these stories persist and what they reveal about belief, secrecy, and the human need to understand the unknown.

Why is it that millions of people accept ancient religious texts — the Bible, the Qur’an, and others — sometimes literally, believing in miracles, angels, demons, and divine intervention, yet categorically reject the possibility of spirits, communication with the dead, other dimensions, or non-human intelligences?

In this episode of Talking to the Dead, I confront what may be one of the deepest contradictions at the heart of religion and modern society.

In the first half of the episode, I take a rigorous intellectual journey through psychology, cognitive science, anthropology, and religious studies to examine how belief actually works. Drawing on peer-reviewed research, I explore why people compartmentalise belief — embracing the supernatural when it is institutionally sanctioned, while dismissing similar phenomena as superstition, fantasy, or madness when they fall outside accepted doctrine. We ask uncomfortable questions about selective skepticism, cultural conditioning, and the social function of belief itself.

In the second half, I turn to a question that is no longer purely speculative: what would happen if the world were officially told that we are not alone?
What if a major world leader announced confirmed contact or historical evidence of non-human intelligence — whether biological, artificial, interdimensional, or extraterrestrial?

I examine serious research and recent warnings from economists, psychologists, and former central-bank officials who argue that such a revelation could trigger ontological shock — destabilizing financial markets, religious institutions, political systems, and everyday life itself. Would religions adapt, fracture, or collapse? Would economies panic? Would society unite — or splinter?

This episode is not about belief or disbelief.
It is about why we believe what we believe, what we refuse to see, and whether humanity is prepared — intellectually, spiritually, and psychologically — for a reality far stranger than we have been taught to accept.

This episode of Talking to the Dead explores telepathic communication, altered states of awareness, and the possibility of mind-to-mind contact with the dead. Featuring meditation and binaural beats, I invite listeners to quiet the mind and consider whether communication continues beyond death—not through voices, but through awareness itself.

The Music.

These are 7.5Hz isochronic tones, enhanced isochronic tones, and binaural beats that can be used to aid in meditation. They are forms of brain entrainment, the process of syncing one's brainwaves with an external beat or tone. This allows the brain's state to change, thereby facilitating meditation, relaxation, healing, creative thought, sleep, lucid dreaming, stress and anxiety reduction, and more. You can learn more about binaural beats here:

Regular isochronic tones can be listened to with headphones or any kind of speakers.

In this first 2026 episode of Talking to the Dead, I explore the hidden history and unsettling implications of remote viewing—from its use in classified government programs to its roots in ancient spiritual practices. Is remote viewing a psychic skill, a scientific anomaly, or evidence that consciousness exists beyond the body? I examine whether this phenomenon is connected to astral projection, contact with non-human intelligence, and even communication with the dead. The episode closes with a guided remote viewing experience and an important discussion on safety, boundaries, and the difference between perceiving the past and contacting the dead.

Nothing in this episode is intended as medical, psychological, or therapeutic advice.

If you live with conditions such as dissociation, psychosis, severe anxiety, or trauma—or if altered states of consciousness are destabilising for you—please do not attempt the experiential portion of this episode. Simply listening is enough.

Episode Summary

In this episode of Talking to the Dead, I explore the idea that creative writing may not originate in the individual brain, but emerges through a process of reception or channelling. Inspired by a vivid dream in which I discovered a handwritten notebook filled with pages from an already-written novel, the episode examines whether literature arises from a shared or non-local dimension of consciousness.

Drawing on accounts from writers including W. B. Yeats, Samuel Taylor Coleridge, Jack Kerouac, Fyodor Dostoevsky, and Philip K. Dick, I explore experiences of automatic writing, trance states, and altered consciousness, alongside psychological concepts such as flow and the collective unconscious.

Approaching creativity phenomenologically rather than dogmatically, this episode considers writing as listening rather than invention—and literature as a conversation across time, perhaps even a way of talking to the dead.

In this episode of Talking to the Dead, a vivid dream becomes the starting point for a serious investigation into musical genius, inspiration, and the possibility of non-local creativity. Observing David Gilmour, Radiohead, and an impossible collaboration between Peter Gabriel and Storm Thorgerson, the episode explores whether great music is composed — or received.

Drawing on neuroscience, psychology, and the testimony of composers, jazz musicians, and rock artists, this episode examines why some individuals access extraordinary musical ideas, why neurodivergent minds are over-represented among great creators, and whether inspiration may arise from states where authorship dissolves.

Is genius a matter of training, biology, altered consciousness — or permeability to something beyond the individual mind?

An exploration of where music may truly come from.

In this episode of Talking to the Dead, I explore one of the most challenging ideas emerging from military whistleblowers, intelligence officers, and long-time UAP researchers: the possibility that so-called “non-human entities” may not be extraterrestrial at all — but deeply connected to humanity itself.

Drawing on testimony from figures such as David Grusch, Luis Elizondo, John Ramirez, Jacques Vallée, and others, I examine a series of hypotheses gaining serious traction behind the scenes:
• interdimensional humans living parallel to us
• future humans returning through time
• divergent human lineages that evolved separately
• and ultraterrestrial intelligences co-existing with our world

I investigate why insiders increasingly question the extraterrestrial narrative and instead propose that these entities may be human-related — biologically, evolutionarily, or temporally.

This episode then moves into the deeper implications.
What would human-related intelligences mean for ancient religion?
For angels, apparitions, and the “messengers” described across cultures?
For near-death experiences and the continuity of consciousness?
For ghost encounters and communication with the dead?
