When memory fades and language falls silent, we assume connection is lost. But what if it isn’t?

In this episode, we explore whether telepathy might offer a bridge to those living with Alzheimer’s and dementia. The journey begins with Rebecca, a close friend from Season 1, whose father’s Alzheimer’s diagnosis collides unexpectedly with the earliest telepathy experiments that launched The Telepathy Tapes.

As caregivers and families reach out with similar stories, we follow Rebecca into a deeply personal experience with Dan Goerke, a man who communicates with people’s “higher self” of people who can no longer speak. What unfolds raises unsettling and tender questions about awareness, regret, forgiveness, and the possibility that something essential remains intact even as cognition declines.

We then widen the lens, turning to physicians and researchers studying end-of-life consciousness, including hospice data showing that visions, communication beyond language, and profound peace are not rare—but incredibly common. These accounts challenge a core assumption: that a failing brain means diminished consciousness, rather than a thinning of our mind’s filter.

Across these stories, an idea emerges. That dementia may not represent disappearance, but transition. That those we fear we are losing may still be present—listening, understanding, and connecting in ways we don’t yet know how to measure.

This episode asks us to reconsider what it means to be “gone,” and whether communication—like love—might persist even when words do not.
