It explores the potential of facilitated "after-death communication" to alleviate prolonged grief, particularly in cases where conventional therapy has been ineffective. The film documents the first publicly funded attempt to see if such contact can reduce grief symptoms, challenging traditional views on the relationship between the living and the dead.  About the Filmmaker Stephen Berkley is a filmmaker, writer, and editor with over thirty years of experience in the media industry, known primarily for his work on projects exploring themes of love, loss, and after-death communication.

    Afraid of The Blair Witch Project with Michael C. Williams

    It's been nearly 30 years since The Blair Witch Project (1999) terrorized film audiences with the inaugural "found footage" film.  The film's logline: Three film students vanish after traveling into a Maryland forest to film a documentary on the local Blair Witch legend, leaving only their footage behind. The Blair Witch Project was heavily marketed as a true story, employing a unique viral marketing campaign to blur the lines between fiction and reality. This strategy included a fake documentary on the Sci-Fi channel, fake missing person flyers, a website with fabricated evidence, and fake police reports.  Fortunately, no actors were murdered or maimed in the making of the film. One of the "survivors" joins us on this episode -- actor Michael C. Williams. Also joining us is fellow thespian, filmmaker, nature wanderlust and sometimes co-host, Cuyle Carvin. Like what you hear?
