S1E8: Gatekeepers of Truth - Telepathy and the Spelling Controversy

In Episode 8 of The Telepathy Tapes, we dive into the controversial world of spelling as a method of communication for non-speakers with autism. This episode reveals the deep divide between families and educators who see spelling as a pathway to independence and those who doubt its legitimacy. Through heartfelt accounts, including a mother’s struggle with her son’s school and the stigmas imposed by professional organizations, we witness the courage of those fighting for non-speakers’ rights to communicate. Expanding the exploration of telepathy beyond spelling, we meet Kyle and his mother Caroline, who communicate solely through dream telepathy and non-verbal communication, demonstrating the boundless forms that connection can take. As we uncover these remarkable experiences, we’re invited to question what we know about communication, autonomy, and the unseen capabilities within us all.

The fact that you are working so hard to validate autistic people, and the fact that they are so important to the rest of us.

I loved every minute of it. The interviews with the autistic kids were absolute gold.

This is beautiful work that you are doing and must continue. The people who don’t understand it are simply afraid of what they don’t understand, which is very unfortunate.

Please don’t ever give up. My dream is that I can somehow as a Neurotypical be able to connect with people on the hill.💜💜💜

Amazing!!!

Amazed and Delighted

I don’t know why I’m surprised at what I’m hearing, it all makes perfect sense! One thing I don’t understand is why some of the abilities are being described as “spiritual gifts”? I know there has been some mention of God or Gods but it seems a leap was made to attribute these abilities to spirituality or a spiritual being. In an effort to understand, I’d love some feedback please.
