Hacking The Afterlife podcast

Hacking the Afterlife with Jennifer Shaffer - Prince, Beethovern, Hermann, Stravinsky and Hira the Dog

In this session, Prince comes through and discussions the healing aspects of music.

At some point Ludwig Van comes through, as does Bernard Hermann and Igor Stravinsky.  If that isn't unusual enough, Hira the dog comes through and describes how owners can converse with there pets on the flipside. 

Hacking the Afterlife with Jennifer Shaffer, LBJ & RFK and others

This is a continuation of last week's podcast where we heard from Frank Sinatra who was responsible for the death of JFK, RFK and Marilyn. (At least partially). 

The interview is mind bending, I can only offer that I've been doing this with Jennifer for over five years, she works with law enforcement nationwide on missing person cases - she's offering what she's seeing or hearing, and I ask questions of clarification.  The book referenced is David Talbot's "Brothers" - about the conspiracies behind the Kennedy assassinations and those reponsible. 

All I can say is ... I'm still processing what we just heard.  Will be on Coast to Coast AM radio with George Noory next week, perhaps I will reference this show.  (June 16th 10 pm PST). Not for the feint of heart.  But for those who've read "Flipside" or "Hacking the Afterlife" they'll recognize my questions, and the context for the answers. I forgot that I went to the LBJ museum in Austin, not in Dallas as I said in the audio - I spent the day looking around that museum when I was in Austin (I edited a film partially in Dallas, so I couldn't remember which trip it was).

Am looking to see if I have a photo of LBJ's typewriter in my possession. . It's the "Intelex" in the LBJ library - the hotline between Moscow and the US that used a Teletype machine for a "hotline" during the cold war. CORRECTIONS: Lady Bird passed away in 2007 (wasn't listed on the LBJ wiki page) I was thinking of Lubner when I said "Rudner" - John Belushi is interviewed in "Backstage Pass to the Flipside" (I met him backstage at SNL) and Gilda is interviewed in the interview with Gene Wildler (I knew her from a film we both worked on).

Doing this kind of work on the fly doesn't allow me to do the research on air - so happy to correct the record - which I do in the books. Jennifer is saying "whatever pops into her head" as am I - and sometimes we both get the translation wrong.

Hacking the Afterlife with Jennifer Shaffer with Nelson, MLK, George, Frank Sinatra and Marilyn

Another episode from "Hacking the Afterlife" - as noted in this episode, which deals with the current events of the day, the folks we interview (except for Mr. Floyd) are all folks we've interviewed for "Backstage Pass to the Flipside 3." 

No offense meant for anyone... these people "seem to appear" and we ask them questions as best we can. The only thing we can do is report, and then compare the answers to others who've asked them the same questions. 

At some point I ask Frank Sinatra a direct question - he answers with an image - it's not until the end of this podcast does that person give us context - someone in his administration was working behind his back. 

Remains to be seen in a follow up interview.

Hacking the Afterlife with Jennifer Shaffer and guest Carl Sagan

We interviewed Carl for the book "Backstage Pass to the Flipside 3" - Carl makes a return visit to our class to discuss a number of things he wanted to cover - like global warming, whether aliens exist, how to step away from fossil fuel and into a safer alternative. 

This podcast is not for everyone, nor should it be. If one is not aware of the possibility of an afterlife, then this will not make any sense. However for those that are, he makes perfect sense.

Enjoy. 

Hacking The Afterlife with Jennifer Shaffer - Amelia Earhart, Hira, Stephen Hawking

In today's episode, the pilot stops by to talk about her trip and her life (today's the 88th anniversary of her solo flight). 

Stephen Hawking makes an appearance, answers a couple of esoteric questions, Luana Anders on the flipside orchestrates it all. 

Also a general discussion of people who have lost folks during the pandemic, and some unusual advice from my mom.  To participate in the "raffle" go to richmartini.com and answer one of five questions regarding Luana.

Hacking the Afterlife with Jennifer Shaffer - George Harrison Bill Paxton Ravi Shankar

Jennifer texted me to let me know she had done an impromptu session with a friend of a friend last night, and the friend reached out to George Harrison.

George is someone we interviewed for "Backstage Pass to the Flipside" and he gave us details that I could corroborate with a mutual friend, a grammy award winning producer who worked with him. But Jennifer forgot about our two conversations with George, and in this podcast reveals the information she heard from him last night that his pal was able to verify. I asked George some Hacking the Afterlife questions, and chatted briefly with his pal Ravi Shankar as well as my pal Bill Paxton, whose birthday is today.  

Hacking the Afterlife with a visit from Little Richard and friends

Jennifer Shaffer is a medium who works with law enforcement on missing person cases.

I'm a former Variety music scribe who has written and/or directed 8 theatrical feature films. Our "guide on the flipside" is Luana Anders, actress who was in more than 300 TV shows and 30 features.

Together we "interview" or chat with folks no longer on the planet. In this instance, the one and only Richard Penniman who brings a number of "guests" to this chat. 

What he says during this interview echoes what we learned in "Backstage Pass to the Flipside 1, 2 and 3" as well as "Hacking the Afterlife" (book.)  For more info: JenniferShaffer.com, RichMartini.com.

Hacking the Afterlife ContactTV interview with Richard Martini

My new friends over at Contact TV have allowed me to post the interview we did recently where they were asking me about the research that has to do with people who remember lifetimes off planet. 

Hacking the Afterlife Gene Wilder, Elon Musk and Mother’s Day

In this podcast we ask Gene Wilder some questions about Elon Musk and his desire to sell the home Gene used to live in. 

We've interviewed Gene (I knew him) in "Backstage Pass to the Flipside" and invite him to weigh in on an idea that I had to pitch to Elon.

Also we announce a Mother's Day/Luana Ander's birthday contest, details which will be posted on my web page RichMartini.com later today. 

Enjoy and don't forget to thank your mom.

Hacking the Afterlife - Talking to Pets, Sitting Bull, Peter Beard, David Bowie, Kobe Bryant

Some folks stop by who appear in "Backstage Pass to the Flipside 3" - Sitting Bull stops by, as well as Peter Beard to explain why David Bowie showed up during his previous interview (with comments for Iman).

Also Kobe Bryant (who appears in the book) stops by and I ask a question in Italian and he puts an answer in Jennifer's mind that I try to unpack.  Two animals stop by; one is Jennifer's cat that passed this week, the other is the dog of Oscar winning writer Robert Towne (who I walked for 3 years.) Mind bending as usual.
