WTF Just Happened?!: All about the afterlife. No woo.

Evidence of the Afterlife is a new documentary on evidential mediumship. In Part 2, director Robert Lyon and mediums Kerry McLeod and Philip Dykes discuss how mediums separate psychic information from evidential mediumship, fear of death, criticism of afterlife research, and stories from three years of filming.

In this episode:

• The 15-minute practice reading in Miami that Robert calls his turning point, from a grandfather's classic car to snowball fights in Central Park
• How a sport fisherman father came to Robert unprompted while he sat behind the camera in Troy, Ohio
• What Kerry and Philip feel that separates their own mind, a psychic impression and a deceased person communicating
• Why Philip compares psychic work to water and evidential mediumship to champagne
• Whether Robert, Kerry and Philip are certain of an afterlife, and why fear of dying still lingers
• Kerry's warning that partially trained mediums are now training the next generation
• How Robert handles online criticism, and his first documentary, Rinaldi, about Brazilian researcher Sonia Rinaldi
• How Kerry and Philip went from fellow tutors to a married couple, just in time for lockdown
• Close calls with Blackpool's tides and Australia's waves, plus a Beatles detour to Liverpool
• Why two mediums who know each other inside out still refuse to read friends and family

Lyn Buchanan spent 25+ years in the U.S. military's classified Stargate remote viewing unit, where controlled remote viewing was used to gather intelligence using what is essentially psychic abilities.

In this episode, he explains what remote viewing is, how it differs from general psychic ability, and why the military deployed it as an operational tool for over two decades. He also discusses his face-to-face alien encounter during an abduction, technology transfer between humans and extraterrestrials, and remote viewing assignments targeting other planets and alien civilizations for space research companies. Lyn's military career inspired the film "The Men Who Stare at Goats" and his book "The Seventh Sense." He founded the International Remote Viewing Association (IRVA) and now trains civilians in controlled remote viewing through his website and course platform.

Topics include: how controlled remote viewing accesses subconscious intelligence with 10x accuracy of traditional psychic methods, his psychokinesis incident that led to military recruitment, classified encounters with Gray aliens, technology trading between governments and ET groups, demographic profiling tools for cultural integration, and why remote viewing ability exists in all humans but has been suppressed culturally and genetically. Lyn discusses ongoing remote viewing contracts with space agencies and why governments classify findings that could reshape human understanding of consciousness and extraterrestrial contact.

Luciano Arruda, president of the International Remote Viewing Association (IRVA), has been collecting information through remote viewing and psychic abilities since 1989. He shares the incredible story of President Jimmy Carter witnessing something that proved remote viewing works: psychic abilities finding a missing plane. Remote viewing is a structured protocol that allows people to access information that is non-local and not attached to time and space without knowing what the target is.

Luciano has experienced remarkable precognition throughout his life. He anticipates what people will say seconds before they speak, hears future events like a blue car pulling out of a parking lot three seconds before it happens, and accesses information through meditation that most people miss. He explains why remote viewing matters more than general psychic abilities: it's structured, allows you to work with groups, and keeps practitioners humble by showing them where they're wrong so they can learn.

He discusses government remote viewing programs, how remote viewing differs from ESP and clairvoyance, and why the CIA used this technique. He shares specific examples of remote viewing sessions that provided accurate information about targets people never knew beforehand.

Luciano emphasizes that anyone can learn remote viewing. It's like learning violin. Some will excel; others will stay at beginner level. But everyone can improve their intuition and decision-making. He invites people to practice free through IRVA's website and attend their annual conference.

Stephan A. Schwartz has spent 60 years researching consciousness through remote viewing, a technique he developed in 1968 to access the non-local aspect of human consciousness. He's used remote viewing to locate Cleopatra's Palace, Mark Antony's Timonium, Christopher Columbus's caravels, and archaeological sites that no one else could find. His work proves non-local consciousness exists and is not electromagnetic in nature.

Schwartz discusses his precognitive research warning of a major crisis coming in 2040. He's documented through remote viewing that people unconsciously sense this future threat, which is driving contemporary fear, resentment, and social division. This precognitive awareness is manifesting as fascism, racism, and gender suppression as people seek strongman leaders promising to fix what they emotionally sense but don't consciously understand.

He explores the 10% tipping point: when a significant percentage of people shift consciousness, entire societies transform. He cites examples like the elimination of slavery language, the decline of cigarette smoking, and the shift to LGBTQ terminology. He explains how consciousness is causal and fundamental, how intentioned awareness can alter reality, and why meditation and focused consciousness matter for both individual and collective transformation.

Schwartz addresses the 2040 crisis, what precognitive evidence reveals, and what humanity must do to avert catastrophe through conscious evolution.

David Collura co-founded Mosaic Wellness and Education, offering free energy workshops on experiencing your multidimensional self. He's the author of "Multidimensional Lens: Practical Ideas for Spiritual Co-Creation," a part-memoir and practical framework for multidimensional living.

David shares his out-of-body experiences, which range from full projections to mini OBEs where he steps partially out of alignment with his physical body. These experiences allow consciousness to operate outside familiar neural pathways, creating new insights and reframings. He discusses the spectrum between dreams and projections, and how they can mix together in complex ways.

He explores why experiential validation matters as much as empirical proof. When you have an experience, you know it's real. His sustained energy work through Mosaic produces measurable shifts in the quality of his energies, providing personal verification that works better than external proof.

David emphasizes play and enjoyment in spiritual practice. When experiences come from genuine interest and feel like personal expression, people sustain them. When they feel like obligation or something you're supposed to do, people run out of gas. His approach prioritizes discovery and experimentation over predetermined frameworks.

He also shares striking experiences, including encounters in non-physical spaces that left clear impressions of something real happening.

Ishtar Howell has been having out-of-body experiences and communications with deceased relatives since childhood. Raised in an agnostic, scientifically-oriented family, he experienced high strangeness that defied conventional explanation. His out-of-body experiences began around age five or six and continue to this day, providing evidence that consciousness exists beyond the physical body and that communication with deceased loved ones is real.

When Ishtar was 13, a car accident took his mother's life. He had a near-death experience during that accident that shifted his entire understanding of consciousness and the afterlife. His out-of-body experiences intensified after this event, and he began receiving verified communications from his mother and other deceased relatives on the other side.

His out-of-body experiences are characterized by a hyper-real quality similar to his near-death experience. Everything feels "realer than real," crisp, and fully conscious. He describes knowing things he shouldn't know, like historical facts that appear in his mind without any prior study. During school, information would surface that helped him pass classes he hadn't studied for. On a ghost tour at age 10, he accurately knew stories about the locations before the tour guide confirmed them.

Now a meditation teacher, monk, and intuitive, Ishtar shares how his lifelong connection to deceased relatives provides evidence that death is not the end and that communication across dimensions is possible.

David Ferrugio lost his father on 9/11 at age 12. Now he hosts Dead Talks, a podcast normalizing conversations about death and grief through hundreds of interviews. His new book, You're Not Dead Yet, explores how grief and loss teach you to live fully. His core belief: when we face death openly, we learn to live more completely.

Instead of letting his father's death define him, David learned that loss is inevitable and you choose how you respond. The experience shaped his philosophy about mortality and meaning. He discusses the choice between fear and action, staying open to possibilities, and how normalizing death conversations actually decreases anxiety.

David shares a remarkable moment at the 9/11 memorial when he heard his mother's voice speaking his father's name through the audio system at an extraordinary coincidence. He explores what happens when we assign meaning to experiences, how to balance openness without attachment, and why the absurdity of existence proves miracles are possible.

His work bridges philosophy, spirituality, psychology, and lived experience through interviews with experts, celebrities, and people with extraordinary stories.

Reverend Nancy Smith creates spirit drawings that accurately depict deceased loved ones she's never met, reads the Akashic Records to access consciousness-level information, and brings through mediumship messages providing evidence that awareness continues after physical death. Her work bridges artistic expression with spiritual communication, offering families specific details that prove loved ones are still present.

Smith has been highly sensitive since childhood, perceiving information beyond what people say in words. A major awakening forced her to develop and trust her abilities. Now she works from what she calls the highest vibrational level, accessing information directly from the "creator."

Her spirit drawings capture faces she's never seen with specific details like eye shadows, jawlines, and exact hairstyles that families instantly recognize. As she draws, she simultaneously receives personality traits, last words spoken, and emotional information. The process evolved from sketching what she visually perceived to automatic drawing where consciousness guides her pencil. One drawing contained multiple family members, each recognizable in the single image. Another time she drew a masculine face for a woman's grandmother but it turned out to be the son the person actually needed to hear from.

She also creates soul art using pastels to show healing colors and symbolic guidance, and works as a medium bringing through deceased loved ones who describe their existence on the other side. Each method accesses the same source but with different intentions and outcomes.
