Full show notes for What Convinced Two Skeptics that There is an Afterlife?: Darren McEnaney of Seeking i

Darren always assumed consciousness outside of a brain and an afterlife was fantasy as a child. When he became severely depressed at only 12 years old, he discovered NDE’s - Near Death Experiences, as he was searching for some meaning to life. He was interested in them but dismissed them as nothing more than hallucinations to cope with the trauma of dying. He then learned that many people have the exact same experiences and "hallucinations." He was so intrigued by this that he researched further, and was astounded to learn that many people actually report information that is verified. One case that still stands out to him is the Pam Reynolds case.r.

Both of them discuss the concept of proof versus evidence. No there can never be actual proof of an afterlife, but that does not mean there can't be a preponderance of compelling and valid evidence that we survive death. Darren talks about how proof isn't even the goal of science.

Liz shares that for her it is when all the evidence comes together that she becomes convinced. The one common thread explanation of all the evidence from NDE's to mediumship is survival of consciousness.

The two discuss that there is no good explanation for how a brain, which is material mass and matter, creates and forms consciousness. There is as much of an explanation for how a material brain can do that as there is that consciousness could be stored in a cloud somewhere and downloaded to a brain.

An issue they both are concerned about is that this research is not neutral. Everyone truly hopes there is life after death. Could this deep wish affect how people process and interpret the evidence? Are Darren and Lis just seeing things how they hope they are? While both have this concern, Darren and Liz both make reasonable arguments for why they end up concluding that is not the case. Liz also shares some tangible evidence she has gotten that show there really seems to be more than just a material world.

Did a Psychic Medium Predict 9/11? Psychic Medium Joe Perreta - Part 1 - Episode 1

Full show notes for Did a Psychic Medium Predict 9/11? Psychic Medium Joe Perreta In the first episode of WTF Just Happened?!, where we bring you evidence of an afterlife and psi without the woo, we speak with Psychic Medium Joe Perreta. He talks with Liz about some bat shit experiences, such as a dream in which he predicted 9/11 when he was 12 years old and some surprising synchronicities. He explains that he questions his own abilities and discusses how a book he read, a dream, and another medium all came together to make him decide to pursue being a medium in the first place. Joe is skeptical himself, and he and Liz discuss some scientists they love, and some mind-blowing readings he has given that helped him feel confident something genuine was going on. Joe is certified by the Forever Family Foundation and participates in scientific research and studies conducted by major universities.

Introduction - WTF Just Happened?!

Introduction - WTF Just Happened?!

Welcome to my podcast WTF Just Happened?! All about grief and the evidence of the afterlife with none of the woo. Listen for conversations with normal people about weird shit. To see all podcast episodes, where to listen and more details, click here. A couple of years ago my dad died and I was shattered. Being raised an atheist, I assumed anything like an afterlife was nothing more than wishful thinking. However, I took a shot in the dark and decided to explore if there was any valid evidence that we could survive death in some form. Something that didn't require belief. While I expected to find nothing, I was astounded by what I found. There were rational scientists, researchers, doctors (and no not Dr Oz) who were studying all sorts of “not normal” things such as mediums, Near Death Experiences, and kids who remembered past lives. I assumed I was somehow not seeing the "catch" and decided to see for myself. I met mediums, researchers, parapsychologists and more. While I saw a lot of nonsense and fraud, I also met a select group of people who seemed to defy the laws of the universe. And that's what this podcast is about... Me talking with the many people who have helped me change my mind - some are researchers, some are mediums, and some are just regular people who have had really weird experiences. I still consider myself an atheist and I still don’t consider myself a spiritual person - I am an evidential person. I hope that you will listen to what I and the people who come on here have to say with curiosity and an open mind. You don't have to draw any conclusions. You don't even need to believe anything said. But at least consider what I and the people who come on here have to say. And I hope you get to have many of your own WTF Just Happened?! laws of the universe defying moments too. Enjoy!
