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.

Not only is this podcast incredibly well produced and entirely gripping in its storytelling, it is also thoroughly groundbreaking in its journalism. If you find it difficult to take it all in, take breaks. It’s a lot to change an entire paradigm, but this podcast may very be the thing that helps do it. This can change the world.
Anyone who has even a passing interest in the nature of our world needs to hear this cohesive, well constructed exploration of the extraordinary gifts shown by nonverbal autistic folks. This podcast relies on real evidence and a scientific outlook to tell a compelling story.
This is mindblowing how far this rabbit hole goes. Angels demons god and the nature of the universe. Life after death. We got it all wrong. I wept with the recognition of how we’ve mistreated an entire group of people, people with so much to offer humanity. This is my new fave podcast. Thank you for this important project.
I absolutely love this. As a public health nurse for medically fragile children this hits home. Though I do not have a neurodivergent child I have worked with them for years, and it’s truly remarkable to bring to light their special talents. I have always resonated with telepathy and connectedness and this is so beautiful to know this is happening in the speller’s minds. I cannot wait for season 2.
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.
This show is built upon exploitative ableism, applying debunked methods to nonverbal kids, using them and their families as props. I’m sympathetic to a family wanting to believe there’s something extraordinary about their child. But instead of seeing that in who they are, instead of valuing children as themselves, they’re mapping tired tropes onto them, overwriting the actual person. I wish we were better than this, as a society, even if I’m not surprised that we aren’t.
