Hacking the Afterlife Podcast with Jennifer Shaffer, Luana Anders Birthday party with Chuck and David Crosby


Listen Later

In honor of our moderator on the flipside's upcoming birthday tomorrow, we decided to chat to folks over there what it's like to "celebrate birthdays" ... or have a party. 

Easily the most unusual thing was to hear that David Crosby was singing "Yesterday" to her. Yes, we know that's not his song, but Luana was a longtime friend of David's and knew him back in the day, (introduced me to him at our local restaurant. He was friendly).  

It is slightly odd and coincidental that last night we were watching on YouTube this video of David singing with the Santa Monica High School chorus and members of the group "America."  It's a fantastic show that's online and free - six songs which sounded fantastic.

But for him to say that he sang "Yesterday" to her (or that is the song that Jennifer kept hearing) can only lead us to look at those lyrics for a hint as to why he sang it to her.

"Yesterday, all my troubles seemed so far away

Now it looks as though they're here to stay
Oh, I believe in yesterday

Suddenly, I'm not half the man I used to be

There's a shadow hanging over me
Oh, yesterday came suddenly

Why she had to go I don't know she wouldn't say

I said something wrong, now I long for yesterday

Yesterday, love was such an easy game to play

Now I need a place to hide away
Oh, I believe in yesterday

Why she had to go I don't know she wouldn't say

I said something wrong, now I long for yesterday

Yesterday, love was such an easy game to play

Now I need a place to hide away
Oh, I believe in yesterday"

So, anything in there about the flipside or why it would be an appropriate birthday tune? I can think of a few.

Then we had a visit from Charles Grodin - whose film "The Heartbreak Kid" played to sold out audiences in LA - print was "flown in from London" as it's extremely rare.  And Chuck mentioned his fondness for Elaine, who also directed him in "Ishtar" where I met her.

Then the odd thing of me mentioning how someone that I've only met on Quora had mentioned that it took a long time before he started to hear from his wife - and then for Jennifer to say "He's my next client" was uncanny. I haven't heard from Tim in the forum for weeks, had no clue that was going to be the case - but there it was - live on camera.

So there's some good advice in here as to how to celebrate loved ones on the flipside, and hope this helps someone to do so. Latest book is DivineCouncils.com - or HackingTheAfterlifeFilm.com on Gaia. Jennifer can be found at JenniferShaffer.com for her upcoming events.

POSTSCRIPT: Today I learned that Tim, the Quora forum member who was about to have a session with Jennifer on the anniversary of his wife's passing, had awoken with the intent to post a song and pic of his wife, but was overwhelmed with the emotion of it on that day (the 11th when we taped the session)  Later on, during his session with Jennifer he shared with her the song that he was going to post in honor of his wife (who speaks to him often from the flipside).

You guessed it: "Yesterday."
