The Telepathy Tapes

In part two of our conversation with Soraya and her parents, Tasha and Safi, the family shares the extraordinary spiritual experiences that emerged as Soraya's health declined.
After years of searching for answers about her rare and progressive condition, Soraya began speaking about angels, soul contracts, loved ones on the other side, and what she believes is her life’s mission: to teach her family about love. She describes late-night visits from spirits asking for healing and a profound family moment that changed their relationships forever.
The conversation also explores the tension between science and spirituality, the surprising openness they’ve found within hospice care, and the emotional reality of raising a child who speaks candidly about mortality while offering wisdom far beyond her years.
Finally, the family shares the recent discovery of Soraya's ultra-rare diagnosis of TAOK1 gene deletion and their hope that future research could not only change Soraya's life, but the lives of countless families affected by rare diseases.

When Soraya was born, her parents knew something wasn’t right. What followed was years of medical uncertainty, countless specialists, and a diagnosis that never came. But alongside Soraya's physical challenges emerged something equally extraordinary: vivid experiences with the non-physical world, messages from loved ones who had passed on, and moments her family still cannot explain.

In Part One of this special two-part conversation, Ky sits down with Soraya and her parents, Tasha and Safi, to explore their remarkable journey through disability, faith, and the possibility that consciousness extends far beyond what we can see.

Part Two premieres next Wednesday.

In this episode of The Talk Tracks, Ky sits down with Gavin Schultz and his mother, Cindy, to explore Gavin’s journey as a differently verbal autistic man who began spelling to communicate at age nine through RPM.
Before spelling, Cindy knew Gavin was bright, but she had no idea just how rich his inner world truly was. Through spelling, Gavin began sharing profound reflections on faith, intelligence, kindness, purpose, telepathy, and the spiritual gifts he says he experiences, including seeing angels, feeling people’s energy, and receiving teachings from theologians.
Gavin also answers listener-submitted questions from the Backstage Pass community, sharing his thoughts on telepathy, skepticism, testing, communication across disabilities, humanity’s purpose, and why he believes differently speaking people are here to teach the world about love, patience, and hope.

For decades, Dr. Robert Melillo has studied autism, brain development, and human cognition. In this conversation he shares his theories on why some non-speaking individuals may understand far more than they can physically express.

Drawing on neuroscience, developmental psychology, and years of clinical experience, Dr. Melillo explores the relationship between body awareness, motor control, communication, and intelligence. He discusses why speech may be inaccessible for some non-speakers despite intact language and comprehension, what individuals have told him about their experience of being disconnected from their bodies, and why he believes giftedness and disability can sometimes emerge from the same neurological roots.

Whether you agree with Dr. Melillo's theories or not, this episode invites listeners to reconsider long-held assumptions about autism, intelligence, and what it means to truly understand another mind.
