The Telepathy Tapes

by Ky Dickens

The Telepathy Tapes is a podcast that explores the origins of consciousness and the unexplained abilities of ESP through science, verifiable experience, formal testing, and human story. In Season One, non-speaking individuals with autism reveal striking telepathic abilities that challenge everything we thought we knew about the mind. In Season Two- The Consciousness Cassettes, the lens widens to extraordinary experiences that invite us to rethink reality itself. From near death experiences to telepathic communication with animals, energy healing to plant intelligence, and the origins of creativity to sudden savant abilities - each episode offers a rare glimpse into the vast terrain of consciousness beyond the brain.

What listeners say

A curated, balanced selection of Apple Podcasts reviews.

Two friends strongly recommended this separately and I always listen when more than one person shares the same thing! I have long believed that people who have what most of the world sees as disabilities are actually graced with special gifts. It makes sense that struggling to navigate the world in the usual ways might open you to something unique. Thanks so much for this incredible insight.

Surviving to Thriving · Aug 2026

This podcast is absolutely fascinating! I may be late to the party, but I’ve started from the very beginning with the episodes exploring nonverbal children and telepathy, and I’m completely captivated. So much of what I’m hearing feels like validation of something I’ve believed for a long time: that human consciousness may be capable of far more than we currently understand, and that perhaps the body is simply the vessel through which we experience it. What moves me most is hearing how naturally some of these abilities seem to come to these children. I’m a little jealous—I want the instruction manual! But more than anything, I’m overjoyed that they’ve found ways to communicate their experiences and finally give us a glimpse into a world we may have completely underestimated. I hope The Telepathy Tapes does more than open people’s minds. I hope it opens the door to deeper research and understanding—not only of these extraordinary children, but of human consciousness itself. Maybe the question isn’t whether we’re capable of more, but what prevents the rest of us from accessing it. I’ll definitely be listening. I have a feeling I’m only at the beginning of a very deep rabbit hole!

Cr8zy4TruCrime · Aug 2026

I disagree- I love when Ky repeats or reiterates what the guest said - many times I’m so amazed that I need the repeat to know exactly what I heard. Telepathy tapes and all subsequent episodes never fails to astound me!! I’m deep into the rabbit hole now and enlarging my consciousness constantly. LOVE this!!!!! Keep going!!! Even almost finished with Thomas Campbell’s book “My Big Toe” -amazing!!!!!! Thank you Ky!!!!

Det4492 · Jul 2026

I really enjoy the topics covered on the show but the host’s voice and repeating what her guests say right after they say it is irritating. I would rather hear the experts share their discoveries than her summaries or commentary on it every minute. She had a Chinese scientist share, and right after she cut in and said that listeners may have to rewind to fully understand what he said. She then went on to say verbatim what he had just said, as if he wasn’t speaking adequate English or something. We understand what these people are saying. Give more air time to the experts and cut all the unnecessary commentary in the middle of expert segments. I also don’t understand why the cheesiest theme music ever was added for season 2. Let the topic and the facts presented speak for themselves. We don’t need pseudo-angelic “oooohs” and “ahhhhhs” at the beginning of each episode to bring the point across.

ilkmyster · Jul 2026

This is nothing but a new form of facilitated communication which has been shown to be fake. Sadly, this is only harming families and autistic individuals as most ‘communication’ partners are subconsciously eliciting the communication and autistic individuals are having thoughts attributed to them.

Maetrix76 · Sep 2026

The ideomotor effect is obvious in the tapes. The ideomotor effect is well-established in facilitated communication. Save your money and just look up the term. By the way, it’s unethical to charge people to view the research! The way the experiments are described in the podcast is very misleading. Telepathy may exist but this reporter has done a grave disservice to this topic and especially to the families, whom she is exploiting. If she truly believes in the veracity of her reporting she would have scientists on to employ some basic critical thinking and counterpoints. Even a psych 101 student can point out the obvious flaws of these experiments.
