Advertise on podcast: Our Paranormal Afterlife : Finding Proof of Life After Death

This episode I am reading from Keith Thompson's book 'Anomalous Phenomena: Apports and the Mystery of Objects That Materialize and Translocate' • Defines apports—objects that appear, vanish, or relocate under mysterious conditions—and documents the Scole Experiment’s remarkable physical materializations • Examines ancestral dreams revealing hidden truths, ghosts seeking resolution, conscious UFOs, spontaneous healings, and phantom companions guiding explorers in danger • Shows how these events point toward untapped human potentials and a larger model of reality where intention and meaning exert real effects Apports—objects that materialize, dematerialize, or translocate without known physical cause—are among the most startling anomalous phenomena on record. Yet they are only one part of a much wider story. Drawing on archival reports, eyewitness testimony, and on-the-ground investigation, Anomalous Phenomena presents a panoramic chronicle of extraordinary events: mysteriously transported objects, telepathic communications, apparitions of the departed, remarkable healings, and UFOs that behave less like machines than intelligent presences. Across cultures and centuries, the same motifs recur—phantom figures guiding the lost, ancestors arriving in dreams, unearthly lights that seem to rearrange reality’s fabric. Far from fringe curiosities, such episodes demand recognition as part of the human record. Threaded throughout this book are Thompson’s own glimpses of the uncanny. Inviting readers to reconsider the mind–matter divide, Thompson’s Anomalous Phenomena opens onto a larger, empirically open model of reality—one that brings science, spirit, and lived experience onto shared ground—where the extraordinary often lives just a breath from the ordinary.'. BioKeith Thompson is an author, independent journalist, talk radio host, former TV talk show host, and former U.S. Senate staff member. His articles have appeared in the New York Times, Esquire, and San Francisco Chronicle, Idaho Statesman. He is the author of Angels and Aliens ("the most fascinating book written on the subject" says SF Chronicle) and The UFO Paradox. https://www.thompsonatlarge.com/ https://www.amazon.com/Anomalous-Phenomena-Apports-Materialize-Translocate-ebook/dp/B0GWRGZN1L https://simonbown.com/ https://www.patreon.com/c/ourparanormalafterlife My book 'Verified Near Death Experiences' https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0DXKRGDFP My book 'Aspects of Alien Abduction' https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0GRRPCT9Y Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

In this episode I talk to the medium Claire Broad about her new book 'What The Dead Are Dying To Teach Us: Lessons Learned from the Afterlife'. As a young child, Claire experienced psychic phenomena, as she grew older her experiences and the communications she received became stronger, resulting in Spirit teachers making their presence known and guiding her. Naturally analytical and now an adult, Claire was forced to question the validity of her experiences against the common academic opinion surrounding survival after physical death and embarked upon a life long quest for the truth. In her refreshingly down to earth, honest and open manner, Claire shares personal stories to bring comfort and hope to many whilst highlighting findings from consciousness studies that challenge our understanding of the world and encourage us to consider our true nature and full potential. Claire teaches us why we may have confidence there is life after death, how we can heal and awaken spiritually through the therapeutic practice of mediumship and most importantly what we can learn from those already on the other side in order to make the most of this life whilst we are here. By the end of this compelling book, readers will have an understanding that we all have a natural connection to the spirit world and will have gained tips and tools to deepen this connection; that death is an illusion; that our loved ones can visit us after their passing and that we can learn to recognise the signs; that genuine mediumship is a therapeutic practice and why visiting a medium is nothing to be feared; that spirit guides gently support us all; that it is natural for a child to display psychic ability and what you can do to support a child that does; that there is scientific research to support the validity of mediumship and psychic ability and that it is possible to seek evidence for survival as well as keeping faith. At the age of four, whilst visiting the cemetary where her Grandfather was laid to rest, Claire Broad encountered the spirit of her grandfather and delivered a message from him to her mother and grandmother, stunning them both. The experience would mould her outlook on life and her ideas about the nature of reality forever. In Claire s adult years, she would go on to explore afterlife communication directly and share her message of hope and life after death, to many thousands of people across the world. Described as  the honest medium  in the media and by Sunday Times best selling afterlife author, Theresa Cheung, Claire Broad ISM/RAM is a highly popular spiritual medium, teacher and author, with a passion to share the experiences that lead her to hold an inner knowing that the afterlife is real. Her warm, down to earth and compassionate manner puts clients at ease, whilst her integrity and no nonsense approach attracts many to both her private practice and her public demonstrations. Claire is known for her spiritual wisdom and teachings too and holds training events and public talks regualrly in the hope of inspiring others to live their best life and to learn for themselves about their eternal nature. Claire has addressed sold out theatre audiences and works closely with thought leaders and researchers in her field. She has also been featured in The Daily Mail, The Sunday Mirror and The Express. http://www.clairevoyant.co.uk/ https://www.amazon.com/What-Dead-Are-Dying-Teach-ebook/dp/B07WJY326H https://simonbown.com/ https://www.patreon.com/c/ourparanormalafterlife My book 'Verified Near Death Experiences' https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0DXKRGDFP My book 'Aspects of Alien Abduction' https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0GRRPCT9Y Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

This episode I am reading from Laura Bruno's book 'The Astrology of NDEs: What the Sky Reveals about Near-Death Experiences and Those Who Have Them' Are some people destined to have a near-death experience? Do souls plan ahead for life-changing visits to the other world? The Astrology of NDEs explores how movements in the heavens track with these powerful inner journeys. Uncanny patterns in the stars reveal an intricate dance between consciousness and the cosmos. From luminaries like Eben Alexander, Raymond Moody, and P.M.H. Atwater to never-before-told stories, Laura Bruno weaves a compelling tale of transformation at the highest and deepest levels. This is a groundbreaking work for both astrology and near-death studies. BioLaura Bruno is an astrologer, intuitive life coach, Reiki Master Teacher, and author with a lifetime of precognitive dreams and paranormal experiences. Her veil between worlds has always been thin. On the verge of beginning a PhD program in English Literature, Laura suffered a 1998 brain injury that dramatically altered the course of her life. Instead of reading books, she began to read people's energy. Four years of near-total disability initiated her into yoga, deep meditation, shamanic journeys, and a world of uncanny synchronicity—shifting her intended life path from professor of English Literature to a very different type of “reader.” Laura's first novel (2009), "Schizandra and the Gates of Mu," combines her expertise in natural healing, synchronicity, and expanded consciousness, offering deep personal healing in the guise of a fast-paced paranormal novel. In "The Astrology of NDEs" (2026), she profiles famous and unknown near-death experiencers--revealing a complex dance between heaven and earth at the threshold of life and death. https://www.amazon.com/Astrology-NDEs-Reveals-Near-Death-Experiences-ebook/dp/B0HN57TPY6 https://laurabruno.wordpress.com/ https://simonbown.com/ https://www.patreon.com/c/ourparanormalafterlife My book 'Verified Near Death Experiences' https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0DXKRGDFP My book 'Aspects of Alien Abduction' https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0GRRPCT9Y Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

In this episode I am reading from 'Death Bed Visions' by Sir William Barrett  First published in 1926, Death Bed Visions by Sir William Barrett remains one of the most fascinating early investigations into the possibility that human consciousness survives physical death. Drawing on accounts from doctors, nurses, relatives and others who witnessed the final  Some of the most intriguing cases involve people who appear to recognise deceased friends or relatives, including individuals whose deaths they had not been told about. Barrett was particularly interested in accounts containing details that seemed difficult to explain through ordinary knowledge, coincidence or imagination. Rather than relying on personal beliefs, he sought testimony from those who had directly witnessed these events, preserving their observations for future generations. Sir William Barrett was a respected physicist and one of the founders of the Society for Psychical Research, an organisation established in 1882 to investigate unusual human experiences through systematic enquiry. His scientific background and interest in psychical research led him to examine subjects that were often dismissed or overlooked by the wider academic community. Death Bed Visions was published shortly after his death and became an important contribution to the early study of survival after death. A century later, Barrett's work remains surprisingly relevant. Advances in medicine have transformed our understanding of the dying process, yet important questions about the nature of consciousness remain unresolved. His collection of eyewitness accounts provides a valuable historical perspective on experiences that continue to attract the attention of researchers, medical professionals and those interested in the possibility of an afterlife. As the original book is now in the public domain, I'm able to share this historical work with listeners. Rather than summarising or interpreting the cases, I'll be presenting Barrett's original words, allowing you to hear the evidence as he assembled it and reach your own conclusions. https://simonbown.com/ https://www.patreon.com/c/ourparanormalafterlife My book 'Verified Near Death Experiences' https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0DXKRGDFP My book 'Aspects of Alien Abduction' https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0GRRPCT9Y Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

This episode I am reading from Nick Lloyd's book 'The Medium’s Path: Embracing the Spirit’s Whisper' What if the experiences you can’t explain are the beginning of your mediumship journey? Have you felt a presence, received a sudden knowing, seen Spirit, or experienced something you simply couldn’t explain? In The Medium’s Path: Embracing the Spirit’s Whisper, experienced medium Nick Lloyd shares his personal journey through childhood visitations, Spirit communication, spiritual development and the discovery of his own mediumistic abilities. Exploring mediumship development, intuition, Spirit guides, energy, psychic experiences and life beyond the physical, Nick offers an honest and personal look at what it can really mean to follow the path of a medium. Whether you are new to mediumship, developing your spiritual gifts, attending a development circle, or questioning your own experiences, this book offers insight, encouragement and a different perspective on the journey. Your journey may have already begun. Are you ready to listen to the whisper? BioSince I was just 3 years old, I've had a remarkable sensitivity to spirits. This extraordinary gift allows me to connect with energies that go beyond the physical world, acting as a bridge between the living and the departed. I find fulfilment in offering solace, resolution, and guidance to those trying to reach out to their loved ones. Frequently, I experience glimpses into the intangible realm, receiving vivid images, visions, and symbols that provide deep insights. Through these experiences, I can visualize loved ones and significant moments, which helps me communicate profound messages from the spirits. This unique ability enables me to gather precise, visual information, as spirits often share specific details about their lives or present intricate imagery, like the contents of a person’s wardrobe. I truly value the understanding that every message, no matter how complex, carries significant meaning. https://www.nicklloydmedium.com/ https://www.amazon.com/Mediums-Path-Embracing-Spirits-Whisper-ebook/dp/B0HH8J4MFK https://simonbown.com/ https://www.patreon.com/c/ourparanormalafterlife My book 'Verified Near Death Experiences' https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0DXKRGDFP My book 'Aspects of Alien Abduction' https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0GRRPCT9Y Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

This episode I am reading from Julie Adreani's book 'Physical  : The Windy City Circle' Julie Adreani is a physical medium, spiritualist and healing practitioner. Her background includes more than two decades working as a paramedic, alongside experience in neonatal care and bereavement counselling.Drawing on experiences that began in childhood, Julie discusses her development as a physical medium and her involvement in séances, where she has explored some of the more extraordinary aspects of spirit communication. She offers insight into phenomena including ectoplasm, independent voice communication and spirit materialisation, as well as the role of trance in physical mediumship. Julie also examines the challenges of working in a field often met with scepticism, the importance of ethical responsibility and the relationship between mediumship, spiritual healing and personal experience. BioMy earliest memory of being able to see and sense spirit was at the early age of four. My guardian in a suit and derby hat has served me well through the years. I can’t and don’t take credit for my abilities, God made me this way. I’ve dedicated my life to God and my family with a high degree of paranormal ability thrown in. This is a very natural and undeniable ability. The more I use my abilities the more balance I find in my daily life. I grew up and have always lived in the Chicago metropolitan area. To me being a medium is not a profession so much as it is a life of service. My experiences have given me an existence that is very personally and professionally fulfilling. This work is very humbling. I am forever grateful and thankful. I feel like I’m living life at my fullest. My family and home are my favorite things. French cheesecake is a serious weakness, and as my girlfriends can attest to. I also like liquid spirits and can yap endlessly when in the company of both. My goal is to have everyone walk away in a better place than before they met me.  The deceased have so much to share about what creates a happy successful life and it is my great honor to share their messages. https://julieadreanispiritmedium.com/ [email protected] https://simonbown.com/ https://www.patreon.com/c/ourparanormalafterlife My book 'Verified Near Death Experiences' https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0DXKRGDFP My book 'Aspects of Alien Abduction' https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0GRRPCT9Y Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

This week I am talking about Barry Eaton's book 'Past Lives Unveiled, Discover How Consciousness Moves Between Lives'. What are soul groups? What is the reality of the spirit world? What lies at the mysterious realm of life between lives? Do our past lives really catch up with us in the present? Past Lives Unveiled takes a fresh, new look at past lives and reincarnation. It features some highly unusual case studies, including two intriguing hypnotic regressions by eminent psychologist, author and past life expert Dr Michael Newton. Two sisters were regressed independently by Dr Newton and went back to life in a Stone Age tribe, details of which have until now been limited to members of the Newton Institute. Barry has wide international experience in all areas of the media and entertainment industries. He is a highly experienced radio and TV presenter, having spent many years with the Australian Broadcasting Corporation and various commercial radio and TV stations. His profile embraces news and sports anchoring, lifestyle shows, current affairs, talk back radio and in what feels like an earlier incarnation, was even a DJ. His first book  Afterlife   Uncovering the Secrets of Life After Death , tracing the journey of the spirit in between incarnations, was published in 2011. No Goodbyes is the follow-on from Afterlife and was released in 2015. His third book,  The Joy of Living, Postponing the Afterlife  was co-written with his partner Anne Morjanoff and tells how he healed from cancer by combining holistic and mainstream medical practices. Barry is a qualified astrologer, psychic and medium and in 2012 did what he terms a postgraduate course in mediumship at the world famous Arthur Findlay College in the UK. In 2012 he was given the 2012 Hall of Fame Award by the Australian Psychics Association and made a life member. Barry is also well known in the US through a series of radio and TV interviews, including three major appearances on the iconic  Coast to Coast  program and of course Radio Out There. His third book, which he wrote with his partner Anne Morjanoff, was released in April 2017. The Joy of Living   Postponing the Afterlife tells of his battle with cancer and how he survived the ordeal with a combination of various holistic practices and therapies along with mainstream medicine. Anne  provides the other half of the story, proving how the love and support of a partner is so vital to the whole experience. https://www.amazon.com/Past-Lives-Unveiled-Discover-consciousness-ebook/dp/B07S2ZKC1W/ https://radiooutthere.com/ https://simonbown.com/ https://www.patreon.com/c/ourparanormalafterlife My book 'Verified Near Death Experiences' https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0DXKRGDFP My book 'Aspects of Alien Abduction' https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0GRRPCT9Y Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

This episode I am reading from E.A. Sabean's book 'My Life Between Worlds: Ghosts, Near-Death Experiences, Psychic Dreams, and the Afterlife' What if the boundary between this life and the next is closer than we think? At five years old, E. A. Sabean found herself moving through a hospital, unaware that she was outside her body. As a teenager, she experienced another unexplained journey—through the wall of her bedroom and into the sky above her neighborhood. Years later, a beloved friend appeared to take her flying at the very moment he died.These encounters were only part of a lifetime of experiences that left her questioning the nature of reality.In My Life Between Worlds, Sabean shares her personal accounts of near-death experiences, ghosts, prophetic dreams, premonitions, an extraordinary healing, and a face-to-face encounter with an angel. Some experiences brought comfort. Others frightened her so deeply that she still sleeps with a light on. Among the stories she recounts:• Dreams that revealed hidden truths and offered a chance to say goodbye.• Overpowering premonitions that prompted her to change her plans.• Footsteps in an empty attic and an unseen arrival at her apartment.• A voice heard through a phone before anyone discovered that a tenant had died.• Vivid dreams of Atlantis, possible past lives, and a joyful reunion with her mother.With candor, curiosity, and occasional humor, Sabean explores how these experiences shaped her childhood, followed her into adulthood, and gradually changed her fear of death into a conviction that life continues.She also reflects on the questions that remain. Why do near-death experiences differ so much? Could dreams allow the living and the departed to meet? Do we exist before birth? And might we have lived other lives that we no longer remember? This intimate memoir invites readers interested in the paranormal, near-death experiences, and the afterlife to consider one woman’s encounters and the possibilities they suggest.

Her experiences have given her reasons to believe—and more questions than she ever expected.Who are we?

This week I am talking to Matt Mckay about his book 'Seeking Jordan: How I Learned the Truth about Death and the Invisible Universe'. McKay, a psychologist and researcher, ultimately learned how to reach his son. In this book he provides extraordinary revelations — direct from Jordan — about the soul’s life after death, how karma works, why we incarnate, why there is so much pain in the world, the single force that connects us, and our future as souls. Unlike many books about after-death communication, near-death experiences, and past-life memories, this is a book for those who do not believe yet yearn to know what happens after death. In addition to being riveting reading, Seeking Jordan is a unique heart-, soul-, and mind-stirring reflection on the issues each of us will ultimately face. If you have lost someone you deeply love, or have become strongly aware of your mortality, it’s hard to avoid wondering about life after death, the existence of God, notions of heaven and hell, and why we are here in the first place. The murder of Matthew McKay’s son, Jordan, sent him on a journey in search of ways to communicate with his son despite fears and uncertainty. Here he recounts his efforts — including past-life and between-lives hypnotic regressions, a technique called induced after-death communication, channeled writing, and more. Matthew McKay is a clinical psychologist and a professor at the Wright Institute in Berkeley, California.In 1979, he co-founded Haight Ashbury Psychological Services in San Francisco and served as its clinical director for twenty-five years. Currently he serves as the director of the Berkeley Cognitive Behavior Therapy Clinic. He has explored spiritual and afterlife issues in two previous books: Why? and Your Life on Purpose. He is also the author of professional and self-help psychology books, including Thoughts & Feelings, Messages, Mind and Emotions, Self-Esteem, Prisoners of Belief, and many others. http://www.seekingjordan.com https://www.amazon.com/Seeking-Jordan-Learned-Invisible-Universe/dp/1608683737 https://simonbown.com/ https://www.patreon.com/c/ourparanormalafterlife My book 'Verified Near Death Experiences' https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0DXKRGDFP My book 'Aspects of Alien Abduction' https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0GRRPCT9Y Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
