Hacking The Afterlife podcast

Welcome to Hacking the Afterlife podcast. 

Here's where to find the new book in Audible:

Jennifer's back from her vacation, and we jumped into a conversation about consciousness and AI (the book AI AND THE AFTERLIFE: Artificial Intelligence Pictures Itself in a Boat on a River) - Jennifer's dad, a Mormon bishop in life, stopp...

While Jennifer is on a much needed vacay, I'm posting one of our earliest conversations.

This was one of the earlier times when we met in her office - it was posted early on - perhaps as our second podcast. (but before subtitles existed).

As noted, Steve Jobs was someone that a friend of mine worked for and during her hypnotherapy session, he showed up to weigh in.  (I didn't see him, but she did - and being a scientist, athei...

Another mind bending adventure on the Flipside.

In today's episode, part three of our "Robert Thurman in the Bardo" series - Robert stops by to continue what he was saying last week.

Two weeks ago, just after his passing, he stopped by to chat with us.

By way of introduction, Robert and I were pals, we traveled to India and Tibet together - he invited me to speak at the Menla conferences "The Art of Dying and Living" conferences.

T...

So here's a more indepth conversation with my old friend, mentor and teacher Robert Thurman on the flipside. It's a unique conversation because I studied Tibetan Buddhism with him, traveled to Mt. Kailash in Tibet with him, made a documentary JOURNEY INTO TIBET WITH ROBERT THURMAN with him - and he's the only person who has appeared on our podcast.

During that episode, he was able to hear information about his grandson who left th...

So one of the great thinkers of the planet has left the stage. I got to know Robert Thurman when I audited his class at Columbia University.  I traveled with him to India and Tibet and got to know his wonderful soul mate Nena, mother of their children.

I have many great stories to tell about Robert - but in this case, this is part one of our conversation with Robert - we just didn't have the time today, but we did get a chanc...

THIS IS A RERUN OF A POPULAR EPISODE - ALSO BECAUSE MARILYN IS BEING FEATURED AT THE ACADEMY MUSEUM....

#kobebryant #KOBE, #JESUSCHRIST, #JESUS, #marilynmonroe

We weren't able to do a podcast tonight, "unforeseen circumstances" (isn't that funny for a podcast where we talk to the afterlife?) - but am rerunning one of our most popular podcasts, with the additional opening and subtitles, so people can "sing along with us." Just kiddi...

Another fun episode. In this episode, we talk about the amazing adventure going to the set of Beyond Belief with Jimmy Church talking about Amelia Earhart. 

Amelia shows up to give her two cents about the show , then Prince shows up to remind us that June 7th is "Prince Day" - and reiterates we should dance, sing, play some of his tunes... why not? 

I ask a question to Stephen Hawking about his journey - he makes a joke a...

Another mind bending conversation with the flipside courtesy of Jennifer Shaffer and Luana Anders. 

Conversation begins with Luana talking about telepathic conversation - how people in dreams don't see lips moving but get information telepathically.  

The discussion revolves around the new film #Disclosure by #StevenSpielberg - and how scientists still believe that communication has to be audible, instead of telepath...

#ELVIS, #ELVISPRESLEY, #PRINCE, #ROBERTTOWNE, #LUANAANDERS, #JENNIFERSHAFFER, #RICHARDMARTINI, #FLIPSIDE, #HACKINGTHEAFTERLIFE,

It's another fun packed podcast talking about esoteric stuff. FIVE shows up - to talk about AI and about accessing the afterlife. Luana Anders is our moderator on the Flipside, and she breaks down what he's trying to explain.

Five is the "chief librarian" on the Flipside, the head of the Akashic records. I...

You just never know who's going to show up to this podcast.

In today's adventure Prince shows up to talk about the hierarchy of the afterlife. Prince talks about how people onstage have a belief in hierarchy - which includes fame, wealth, power, etc... and how offstage there is no hierarchy.

However, offstage people respect people's "age" or how many lifetimes they've had, and the wisdom they carry.

I asked some questions about who...

BEST OF HACKING THE AFTERLIFE

These are excerpts from a number of podcasts - with conversations with people offstage about how things work.

 Charles Grodin, Robert Towne, Phil Hartman, Kurt Cobain, Jimi Hendrix stop by briefly

Prince stops by, Abraham Lincoln, Stephen Hawking, Robin Williams, and two animals stop by - Hira, the dog and companion of screenwriter Robert Towne, and Mr. Bailey, the companion and pet of Luana Ander...

As I've noted in the past, we aren't in charge of the guest list.  In this episode, the late David Wilcock makes an appearance.  As I mention in the podcast, I asked him how that happened - if he was invited or wanted to step forward.

I had some rudimentary questions about his journey - the press reported him leaving the stage voluntarily - but he says cryptically (no other way to put it) that his death was something plan...

I went through four different interviews with #AmeliaEarhat #amelia #earhart over the past few years - dating back to 2022 - before the book SHE WAS NEVER LOST: THE AMELIA EARHART SAGA was published.

In these clips- Amelia references things that Jennifer doesn't know, couldn't know - including a citation from a sentence in the book (which I then read for the audience) where Amelia from the Flipside, is saying that it's important fo...

Another fun conversation with folks on the Flipside. In this, Luana Anders, our moderator on the Flipside wants to discuss a dream that I had recently where I was on one side of a door with my brother, both of us trying to get it open - and on the other side I could hear my mom's voice.

As I awoke, I recognized the door. It's the same door that was mentioned a few weeks ago during a podcast, and I asked my friend on the flipside ab...

I wasn't sure if we were going to be able to do a podcast this week (we did, it's posted) - so I put together a few (four) different interviews where we "spoke to Jesus."

Now, for those who find that problematic, in the book HACKING THE AFTERLIFE there is a transcript of my first conversation with Jennifer Shaffer - my first interview with her. 

And three people came forward that day - AMELIA EARHART (transcripts are in the bo...

Another one of these mind bending podcasts.

In this one, Jennifer and I begin to speak to Luana Anders offstage about how to communicate with loved ones, and the importance of daily meditation.  At some point we talk about how we can communicate with trees, animals, other beings we share the planet with.

When asked what Luana Anders, our guide on the Flipside wanted to discuss, she pointed Jennifer's attention to me - and a Mo...

Another crowd filled podcast from our class on the flipside!  Luana Anders shows up to talk about an article I wrote on Medium about her pal Robert Towne on the flipside. (I sent Jennifer a video clip about Chinatown but not the article) https://medium.com/@richmartini/the-matrix-of-chinatown-and-some-amusing-anecdotes-about-those-involved-f3b494e8b468

Luana comes forward to say that the article is incomplete - because I barel...

Another mind bending session...

First Jennifer shared how she missed a car crash below her office by a few minutes - and Kobe Bryant stopped by to tell us how that works... how what appears to be stones in our path are sometimes put there so we don't do the wrong thing, or get caught in a situation we could avoid.

Then Amelia stopped by to talk about the past present and future along with our moderator Luana Anders - referring to h...

It's my birthday so we decided to have our annual birthday lunch together in Manhattan Beach near Jennifer's office. Then afterwards, we went back where we first spoke to folks on the flipside - her office.

Another mind bending podcast which began with Jennifer speaking about her weekend retreat with Dr. Joe Dispensa who has been studying the effects of meditation on a wide swatch of people worldwide, Jennifer being one of them.

We...
