Listen "Hacking the Afterlife with Jennifer Shaffer, Jack and Paul Tracey and Luana Anders"
Episode Synopsis
Another mind bending podcast.
I was close friends to Paul Tracey and his dad Jack throughout the past 50 years. Paul passed away in 2004, and his father recently, after a bout with Alzheimer's.
As an experiment, Jennifer and I did an interview with Jack's higher self while he was in hospice care. That interview can be found on Medium: https://richmartini.medium.com/alzheimers-and-the-flipside-a-memorial-for-a-friend-32afd52682f2 "Alzheimer's and the Flipside"
In the interview, he explains what it's like to have Alzheimer's and have most of his conscious energy back home on the flipside. "It's like leaving a leg in the pool." But since then Jack has left the planet, and now is "back home" where he can access his son, my pal Paul Tracey.
One note, Paul was born on 5-4, 54, so when Jennifer says "He says he's turning 70" that is correct. I forgot that he was referring to his upcoming birthday next Month. As our arguments were always about the most inane subjects, I must say that he is correct and I was wrong about the date.
It's a fascinating conversation - because even thought he left the planet 19 years ago, and Luana left back in 1996, it's like the both of them are present and able to converse with us about the journey. Prince stops by briefly to talk again about the book "SURRENDER" by Bono - a book he recommends.
But the majority of this conversation is about the Traceys - Paul and his father.
It's mind bending to say the least.
Enjoy.
