This podcast was recorded at 1 pm, PST, 11.14 BEFORE it was announced by the incoming administration they'd nominated RFK Jr. to run Health and Human Services. Despite the controversy surrounding Robert Jr. as of late, I did meet him when Charles Grodin had him on his talk show, when he famously suggested that the parent company of NBC was deliberately polluting the Hudson River. That episode got the Charles Grodin show cancelled. (Chuck didn't care, he wouldn't pull the show when GE asked...

This is a jam packed podcast.  It starts off with a visit from our pal Abraham who says "Democracy will prevail" and "We've worked too hard to let it fail."  Jennifer and I had not planned to talk about the election - and I asked him about the conversation we had with him a few weeks ago, with regard to an article I wrote on Medium where I did a "guided meditation" with the CharacterAI known as Abraham. "It was more accurate than you know" he said at the time.  I mentioned that I had a couple...

Jennifer is on the road this week, and I thought it might be fun to give a listen to a podcast from four years ago - the day of voting in the last contentious election.  The one that Joe Biden won the day we were speaking, but the results weren't in. Conversation begins with a chat about how the country was in turmoil (the lockdown had begun in March) and Jennifer said that Maverick had shown up. He wanted to talk about the "bittersweet" experience of the election, how despite it going the...

Another fun podcast with Jennifer Shaffer and folks on the flipside. In this episode, we start by discussing the full moon and what that means to people on the planet accessing people offstage, or on the flipside. We ask the moderator of our group over there to explain it, and Luana Anders talks about it being a vibrational frequency difference... almost like a speeding up of energy, and that it's easy to reach across the aisle so to speak. Prince stops by because Jennifer had posted...

Another mind bending podcast. We begin with a discussion of the article South Bay Magazine did about Jennifer "Open Mind" in their October 2024 issue.  It's a well written article and a link can be found on Jennifer's website (JenniferShaffer.com) Jennifer mentioned the book "Tuesdays with Morrie" - odd for her to do so as I just read it last week (without mentioning it).  It allowed me to reminisce a bit about my film "Portrait of Julian Baird" which is on the podcast "Hacking the Afterlife"...

Another one of those mind bending podcasts.  In this case, Jennifer and I begin with a discussion about me being "under" during a routine surgical procedure, and being aware of addressing some kind of "classroom" on the flipside.  When I came to, I asked a nurse what a medical term meant - so in the podcast I asked Luana Anders, our moderator on the flipside to describe what I had experienced. Then we talked about an artificial intelligence chat I had done with Abraham Lincoln online. During...

Another unusual podcast. Jennifer begins by talking about her meeting over at United Talent Agency where they're talking with her about doing some shows... and then spoke about her "uncorked event" in Manhattan Beach last Monday. We then spoke about a book she's been reading that on the back cover talks about someone meeting Jimi Hendrix on the flipside - someone who has shown up often in our sessions, whether in the books BACKSTAGE PASS TO THE FLIPSIDE or TUNING INTO THE AFTERLIFE. (People...

I was invited to a screening of Sunset Blvd. A dark comedy made by Billy Wilder in 1950.  William Holden, Gloria Swanson, Erich Von Stroheim - at the last minute I was going to see it by myself, thought twice about it - but something or someone insisted I go. At the screening, Nancy Olson who starred in the film as the girlfriend of William Holden was there. She had wonderful stories about her experience on the film - her second movie.  After the screening I had an urge to go to the Chateau...

Another mind bending podcast. In this case as usual, Jennifer and I had no idea whom Luana Anders, our moderator on the flipside would bring to the conversation. In this case it was my old boss Robert Towne, the screenwriter who passed away recently. He brought up the topic of "DreamBombing" a person's dream.  Jennifer said the term, then later I asked him if he coined it or she did - and he took credit for it. The idea is that they can "slip into" a dream we're having and just say hello.  We...

I went to the Hollywood Chamber of Commerce ceremony for my pal Carl Weathers. (We wrote a script together were friends for 20 years.)  At the ceremony I met some relatives and friends, and told them I might be able to reach out to Carl via our podcast (again.) If one searches his name on this podcast, they'll see the initial interview. But in honor of his family and friends, here's an article that talks about what the ceremony was like: HOLLYWOOD, LOS ANGELES -- Carl Weathers was honored...

Another one of those mind bending podcasts.  Today Jennifer Shaffer's mom stopped by to say hello, to give Jennifer a frequency or feeling for when she's around her.  Then we invited Luana Anders, our moderator on the flipside (LuanaAnders.com) to tell us if anyone had made her guest list.  Luana moderates our podcast from the flipside - as recounted in the book and film FLIPSIDE and HACKING THE AFTERLIFE it was after Luana's appearance on the Charles Grodin Show courtesy of James Van Praagh...

This is one of those podcasts that I can't really begin to comprehend, understand, other than to allow that the over four decades I knew Robert Towne, it was like I was put in his path so I could do this interview. Robert was a prolific writer, some consider to be the greatest screenwriter who put pen to paper (or pages in a Selectric.)  Robert asked me to do this interview before he passed, made me promise.  I have sent the unedited version to his friends and family (without some pauses and...

It was Jennifer's birthday week, she tells the story of how her daughter sent a message in the sand from Malta, shows it to the audience and how her son magically found the exact same birthday card for her - that she was going to give her mom before she passed.  Jennifer sends her love and thanks to everyone who sent her birthday wishes. Then a conversation with Fred Roos, Luana Anders' friend whose memorial was this week.  I went to the memorial, a number of very unusual conversations were...

It's Jennifer Shaffer's birthday week. Today's podcast had a number of people on the flipside show up to wish her happy birthday.  Her mom and da, Prince, who told her he had written a song called "Happy Birthday" - one that neither of us knew, but then looked up online while during the podcast.A number of old friends stopped by Howard Schultz, Charles Grodin, people who didn't meet Jennifer in life, but who know her from our conversations with them on the flipside. There's a discussion of...

Jennifer and I have been doing this form of accessing the flipside for 8 years.  Every week for the past 8 years we've been getting together to see who we can speak with or talk to on the flipside. In terms of the process; Jennifer works with law enforcement agencies daily; she senses, sees, hears information and does her best to interpret what she is seeing, hearing.  When someone shows up that I knew, or she knew, it's easier to interpret what they're talking about.  In my case I try to ask...

An extra long episode for today - caught Jennifer at the end of her long day instead of in the middle of it. We start off by talking about some day to day issues, reminding the audience we're going to be appearing together at the ContactInTheDesert.com event on June 1st, at 10:30 "How to Talk to One’s Council: Including ET’s Workshop with Jennifer Shaffer and Richard Martini Saturday, June 1, 2024 10:30am–12:05pmLocation: Independence Room (Contact In the Desert)  Jennifer asked me how folks...

Jennifer returned from her trip to Mexico and we dive into what people in our class on the flipside wanted to talk about; the upcoming "Contact in the Desert" workshop on Saturday, June 1st. (ContactInTheDesert.com) First up was Ma Durga, the Hindu deity who has appeared in a number of conversations with people on the flipside. Jennifer's father identified her as the 8 armed teacher from his astrophysics class. She's shown up in other conversations, guided meditations - and after asking her...

Another one of those mind bending podcasts. In the first half, there's a visit from the one and only Tom Petty.  When he first showed up to talk to us, years back, I asked him "how is it you're appearing to Jennifer in this restaurant in Manhattan beach? I didn't meet you when I was a music critic at Variety, and I don't think Luana met you in her lifetime.  How did you show up?" His reply was "You have no idea how many people are in line to talk to you guys. It's like your friend Luana has a...

An interview with Jennifer Shaffer, Luana Anders, ”General Sherman” (”Six”) and Prince

Here's the ring camera video that I mention in the podcast: https://youtu.be/Vu4ILcGepGU   In today's podcast, Amelia Earhart stops by. She's stopped by a number of times, and when Jennifer said "She's been showing you more things lately" I forgot to mention how I was studying her poetry this past week, in her own handwriting, which is hard to decipher. And I found in her poems from Purdue University more evidence of her relationship with her painter... and how she was a prolific writer, and...
