I Left My Body: Shadow People & Messages From Beyond The Grave

Season 2, Ep. 34
•

Trent joins me from Queensland to share a lifetime of experiences that blur the line between life, death and whatever might exist in between.

After being trapped beneath the surf and reaching the point where he believed he was going to die, Trent experienced something profound. An overwhelming sense of peace, followed by what he describes as leaving his body and witnessing events unfolding from above, before suddenly finding himself back underwater fighting his way to the surface.

But that’s only one chapter of his story.

We dive into eerie encounters with shadow people, including figures witnessed by multiple members of his family and some unsettling experiences that seem to have followed the family across generations.

Trent also shares the incredible connection he believes he still has with his late grandfather. From being inexplicably drawn directly to his grave, to receiving what seemed like a warning moments before a problem aboard a flight.

Near death, out of body experiences, shadow people and a bond with a loved one that may have continued long after his passing.

This one goes deep.

    53:52||Season 2, Ep. 28
    In Part 2 of my interview with Marty from rural Victoria, we go even deeper down the rabbit hole. This episode focuses heavily on the bizarre connection between Yowies, UFO activity, orb lights, and the unsettling telepathic communication Marty experienced over a number of years.We discuss the apparent distrust and tension between different entities operating around the property, including what Marty describes as more malevolent and insect-like intelligences compared to the protective “forest people” he’d previously encountered. Marty also shares details surrounding rotating lights over paddocks, strange humming sounds, and the eerie feeling that something far beyond our understanding was unfolding around him.This episode gets seriously weird and explores the possibility that the Yowie phenomenon may be connected to something much bigger than just an undiscovered primate.Buckle up legends… this one goes deep.
