[00:00:00] Alex Tsakiris: on, this episode of Skeptiko, A show about rules and lessons,

[00:00:08] Alex Tsakiris: when to go against him, see, I’m not a monster. I’m just ahead of the curve. dude, have all these rules and you think they’ll save you

[00:00:22] Alex Tsakiris: and when maybe to follow him.

[00:00:24] Vinney Tolman: it’s almost like these are lessons that we’ve already got inside of us and, , it really synchronized with what I believed even before I had my near death experience.

[00:00:34] Alex Tsakiris: First clip, of course, was from the dark night, and the second was from today’s guest, Vincent Tolman, who joined me to talk. His remarkable near death experience and what he learned as a result of it. Stick around. You’ll see that I push Vinny a little bit, but he is more than up for it. And I really appreciate what he’s bringing.

[00:00:57] Alex Tsakiris: welcome to Skeptiko, where we explore controversial science and spirituality. I’m joined today by Vinny Tolman, the author of The Light After Death, which let me get, this is the stunning, true story of Vincent’s experience on the other side of death and the 10 principles he was taught while traveling to heaven and what he saw when he arrived.

[00:01:20] Alex Tsakiris: Vinny, welcome. Thanks for joining

[00:01:22] Vinney Tolman: me. Yeah, thanks so much, Alex. I’m, I’m really happy to be here. Happy to be a part of.

[00:01:28] Alex Tsakiris: Great. Well, you know, I am too, because we had this rather extensive email exchange. You know, I kind of, uh, no, it was really great. You’re very open and I really appreciate that. You know, I kind of told you initially I didn’t think this was the right fit, because I’ve been doing this for a long time and I don’t really do the near death experience, story, kind of interviews, you know?

[00:01:54] Alex Tsakiris: , because I’m more interested in the science, I’m more interested in the research. I’m more interested in how it overlaps with other things in understanding this extended consciousness. But you’re like, I’m down with all that.

[00:02:06] Vinney Tolman: Yeah. I’m, I, I come from that mindset and I’ve always been kind of the skeptic myself.

[00:02:12] Vinney Tolman: Uh, prior to my experience, I always was, I was a bit Skeptiko of all these experiences and of course, Uh, I, I got converted over with my experience. That’ll do it, won’t it? That’ll do it. Yeah, for

[00:02:26] Alex Tsakiris: sure. Well, I, I, you know, I’m not, , I found myself in this whole thing for the last, uh, 15 years not being as Skeptiko per se.

[00:02:37] Alex Tsakiris: I didn’t come into it being Skeptiko just in, I came into it as kind of a scientific kind of perspective, and I guess like, I’m gonna super put you on the spot right off the beginning. , because way back in the day when I used to do these, you know, like, uh, the first one I think I did was with, uh, Dr.

[00:02:56] Alex Tsakiris: Evan Alexander. Remember him? Proof of Heaven? Mm-hmm. Yeah. Absolutely. Very, very important, important book that really broke this thing wide. It opened in 2012, had him on the show. I mean, you remember what that guy had to go through in terms of quote unquote proving.
