The Telepathy Tapes

The Telepathy Tapes is a podcast that explores the origins of consciousness and the unexplained abilities of ESP through science, verifiable experience, formal testing, and human story. In Season One, non-speaking individuals with autism reveal striking telepathic abilities that challenge everything we thought we knew about the mind. In Season Two- The Consciousness Cassettes, the lens widens to extraordinary experiences that invite us to rethink reality itself. From near death experiences to telepathic communication with animals, energy healing to plant intelligence, and the origins of creativity to sudden savant abilities - each episode offers a rare glimpse into the vast terrain of consciousness beyond the brain.

    The Languages of Intuition

    What if intuition isn’t a rare gift, but a capacity we all possess in different ways? This week, Ky sits down with intuitive teacher Anna Naturalista, who says her own psychic experiences began in early childhood and were encouraged rather than dismissed by the family and spiritual traditions around her. Anna introduces what she calls the six languages of intuition. From clairvoyance and clairaudience to the lesser-known experiences of intuitive knowing, feeling, taste, and smell - and shares practical ways she believes we can become more aware of the signals already showing up in our lives. Together, Ky and Anna explore the difference between intuition and ordinary thought, why self-trust may be essential to hearing our internal guidance, and how slowing down enough to notice our patterns can help us distinguish meaningful signals from the noise around us. The conversation ultimately turns toward love, service, and a simple question: when we find ourselves longing for something from the outside world, what might change if we first looked for a way to offer it ourselves?

    Casey Carter: The Teacher Who Started Hearing Her Student’s Thoughts | Talk Tracks

    When neurodevelopmental teacher Casey Carter began working with a 12-year-old nonspeaking autistic student named Jed, she quickly realized there was far more happening beneath the surface than others could see. After helping him communicate through typing, Casey says she discovered that Jed could read her thoughts. Soon, she began hearing his thoughts back. In this episode, Casey shares the extraordinary connection that transformed her understanding of communication, consciousness, and reality. She and Ky explore telepathy, bilocation, altered experiences of time, spiritual realms, and what Jed has taught her about love, intention, and the abilities we may all carry within us. Casey also shares the story behind Converging Hearts (https://www.converginghearts.com/), the creative space she and Jed are building for nonspeaking adults to communicate, create, and be fully understood. _______ 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 is your invitation to come closer.

    Is Spelling Really “Debunked”? An Advocate Responds | Talk Tracks

    After The New York Times published an opinion piece arguing that spelling-based communication has been “debunked,” writer and communication-rights advocate David Kaufer joins Ky Dickens to examine the claims, and the evidence they leave out. David shares how spelling transformed the life of his nonspeaking autistic son, Stone, revealing his intelligence, love of learning, and dreams for the future after years of being denied access to age-appropriate education and meaningful communication. Together, David and Ky unpack the arguments surrounding facilitator influence, the ideomotor effect, and decades-old message-passing studies frequently cited against spelling. They also explore newer eye-tracking research, the role of apraxia and regulation, potential conflicts of interest within autism research, and why nonspeakers are often required to prove authorship in ways speakers are not. Stone then joins the conversation to respond in his own words and share a message of hope with other nonspeakers. This episode asks what is lost when skepticism becomes dismissal, and why access to communication must be treated as a matter of dignity, safety, and fundamental human rights.

    Ibogaine Inquiries Part V: Before the Forest Is Gone

    As global interest in ibogaine accelerates, the consequences are already being felt in Gabon. Wild Iboga is disappearing, prices are rising, and traditional practitioners are losing access to a plant that has shaped spiritual and communal life for generations. And beyond the forest, inexperienced providers are beginning to offer powerful ceremonies without the training, accountability, or relationships that Bwiti leaders believe the work requires. In the final episode of The Ibogaine Inquiries, we examine what can happen when a sacred medicine spreads faster than the wisdom surrounding it. Conservationist Yann Guignon, Bwiti master Simon Pierre, and Indigenous scholar Dr. Christine Dindisi explore the dangers of commodification, and the possibility of a different path forward. _______ A note to listeners: This series is intended to inform, not encourage the use of ibogaine. Ibogaine is a powerful psychoactive substance with serious medical risks and should never be used without thorough medical evaluation and appropriate supervision. As you'll hear throughout this series, increasing global demand has also had profound consequences for the Indigenous communities in Gabon who have safeguarded Iboga and its traditions for generations. We encourage you to listen to the full series before drawing conclusions or seeking out treatment. _______ To support the indigenous peoples of Gabon, Africa and help protect the sacred Iboga plant, please visit https://blessingsoftheforest.org/ where you can learn about those who use this medicine ceremoniously, have for thousands of years, and whose access is in grave danger. _______ 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 is your invitation to come closer.

    Ibogaine Inquiries Part IV: Who Owns a Sacred Medicine?

    For centuries, the people of Gabon protected iboga as a sacred medicine. Then a gift intended to help others changed everything. In this episode, we trace Iboga's remarkable journey from colonial France to New York City, where a young man named Howard Lotsof discovered its potential to interrupt addiction and dedicated his life to bringing ibogaine into modern medicine. But as scientific interest grew, so did difficult questions about patents, ownership, and who should benefit from knowledge that had been safeguarded by Indigenous communities for generations. Featuring conservationist Yann Guignon, filmmaker Lucy Walker, and Indigenous scholar Dr. Christine Dindisi, this episode explores the history that shaped today's iboga renaissance, and asks whether scientific progress and Indigenous stewardship can move forward together. _______ A note to listeners: This series is intended to inform, not encourage the use of ibogaine.

    Ibogaine Inquiries Part III: The Sacred Roots of Iboga

    Long before ibogaine entered Western clinics and laboratories, the plant it comes from held a sacred place in Gabonese life. In Part III of Ibogaine Inquiries, we travel to Gabon to explore Bwiti, the spiritual tradition in which iboga is understood as a teacher, guide, and living presence. Gabonese practitioners and Bwiti initiates describe the preparation, community, music, mentorship, and lifelong practice that surround the medicine. They explain why Iboga cannot be separated from the larger body of knowledge developed around it. As Western interest continues to grow, this episode asks what may be lost when a sacred plant and its active compound are removed from the people, traditions, and relationships that have safeguarded them for generations. A note to listeners: This series is intended to inform, not encourage the use of ibogaine. Ibogaine is a powerful psychoactive substance with serious medical risks and should never be used without thorough medical evaluation and appropriate supervision.

    Ibogaine Inquiries Part II: The Intelligence of the Medicine

    People around the world describe remarkably similar experiences with ibogaine: encounters with ancestors, shared dreams, telepathic abilities, and moments that seem to transcend ordinary consciousness. Are these a coincidence, a hallucination, or something science has yet to explain? In this episode, psychologists, neuroscientists, chemists, physicians, and former patients explore why ibogaine appears unlike any other psychedelic they've studied. From blindfolded perception and shared visions to groundbreaking brain research and the search for safer treatments, we examine the growing evidence and the enduring mystery surrounding one of the world's most extraordinary medicines.

    Ibogaine Inquiries Part I: Remember the Name

    Why is everyone suddenly talking about ibogaine? After President Trump signed an executive order fast-tracking psychedelic research, a little-known plant medicine from Central Africa found itself at the center of a national conversation. Advocates call it a breakthrough for addiction, PTSD, and traumatic brain injury. Critics urge caution. But how did we get here? In the first episode of The Ibogaine Inquiries, Ky Dickens and Katherine Ellis trace ibogaine's unlikely path from sacred ceremonies in Gabon to veterans seeking healing in Mexico, and ultimately to the halls of American politics. Along the way, former Texas Governor Rick Perry, Admiral Jim Hancock, and physician Dr. Martín Polanco share the personal experiences that transformed them from skeptics into advocates. A note to listeners: This series is intended to inform, not encourage the use of ibogaine. Ibogaine is a powerful psychoactive substance with serious medical risks and should never be used without thorough medical evaluation and appropriate supervision.
