Is Skepticism In the Way of Your Understanding?

Jeffrey J. Kripal is a professor of Philosophy and Religious Thought at Rice University in Houston, Texas and he is back on the pod to answer all your burning questions about the chart topping podcast THE TELEPATHY TAPES (is it real? Is it a hoax?), near-death experiences and how science falls short when studying the metaphysical and supernatural abilities. Jeffrey explains how the very attempt at measuring extra-sensory abilities could make them unmeasurable. Mayim and Jeffrey explore the possibility that those with autism, ADHD or who are nonverbal may be able to tap into another realm and how fear plays a large role in limiting our perception of these abilities.
