Summary

On episode 151 of SOMEWHERE IN THE SKIES, Ryan is joined in-studio by Leslie Kean and Mike Anthony to talk all about their extensive work looking in to a subject many refuse to think about; death. What happens when we die? Our body ceases to function, but what about that unknown force within us? Is it consciousness or a soul. Are they different or one in the same? Have we lived many lives before and can we remember them? And most importantly, can we survive death? Returning this week is investigative journalist and New York Times Best-Selling author, Leslie Kean. Her most recent book, Surviving Death: A Journalist Investigates Evidence for an Afterlife tackles the very questions I just asked and so much more. Mike Anthony is an actor in New York City. Several years ago, his father died unexpectedly. Then, something extraordinary occurred. Something Mike didn’t believe was possible. And ever since, he's been on a personal journey to find out if his father ended with his body, or continues on in ways we once thought impossible, but are now beginning to understand in the most profound of ways. Ryan will be speaking at Contact in the Desert this Spring.

0:00.0	Today on the show, Leslie Kane and Mike Anthony.
0:03.6	I was sitting in England with Leslie and this man Stuart Alexander,
0:08.1	and I saw the thing happen right in front of my eyes that Leslie talks about in the book.
0:13.0	It's real, right?
0:14.0	There are some things that just simply are objectively true,
0:17.0	are objectively real,
0:19.0	and when I saw this thing happen, that blew me away
0:22.0	and I, from then on on started to believe that my
0:25.1	dad really was here but when I saw this thing happen it moved me from
0:29.2	believing it was real to knowing it was real I can't describe how big of a shift that was in my life. This is somewhere in the skies with Ryan's bread. Oh, What? Welcome to Somewhere in the skies, I'm your host Ryan Sprague.
1:18.0	And guess what? You're going to die. We all are. It's the singular thing that every last one of us has in common.
1:27.0	And the sooner we accept that, the sooner we can start asking the tougher questions.
1:38.4	What happens when we die? Where do we go? Do we go anywhere? Our body ceases to function, but what about the unknown force within us?

1:50.4	Our brains shut down.
1:52.4	But what about everything we've ever learned or experienced?
1:56.5	Do our memories just blip out into blankness like nothing ever happened?
2:02.0	When we think of death, many of us brush it aside and save it for another day.
2:07.0	And then those days turn into months, and those months turn into years. And then we're faced with that inevitable question ourselves of our own mortality
2:18.0	no matter your beliefs no matter you're shying away from it or accepting it, death is a mystery we've only begun to scratch
2:25.6	the surface of. And today's guests have dug deeper into this mortal mystery
