"When You Hear God, There's No Confusion" - Steven's Shared NDE

In this powerful episode of the Round Trip Death podcast, host Eric Bennett sits down with Steven La Russa from Reno, Nevada, to discuss one of the most remarkable near-death experience (NDE) accounts you'll ever hear. In fact it was a shared NDE. In October 2024, Stephen suffered a sudden heart attack with no prior cardiac history while on a trip to Lake Tahoe with his wife Wanda. What followed was a deeply transformative NDE in which Steven blacked out, traveled through darkness into a vast starry space, and neared a white light — all while receiving direct, telepathic messages from God urging him to stop avoiding his spiritual calling and step fully into his life purpose as a healer and coach. What makes this episode uniquely extraordinary is that Stephen's wife Wanda simultaneously had her own experience — entering her own parallel state of darkness and space while lying beside him. The two communicated telepathically throughout the event, and at the moment Steven was ready to surrender to death, Wanda's voice broke through urging him to keep fighting. As Steven neared the threshold of the white light, Wanda began speaking aloud in two African languages and one Indian language — languages neither she nor Stephen know — in what appeared to be intercessory prayer or light language. She had no memory of it afterward, describing it as being "taken over by the Spirit," providing Stephen with undeniable proof that the experience was divinely real. His story is a compelling testament to the reality of the afterlife, the existence of a divine plan, and the transformative power of a near-death experience (NDE) to shatter the false identities that keep us from living the lives our souls came here to live.

"Please Don't Send Me Back" - David's 2 NDE's

In this rich and moving episode about NDE's, host Eric Bennett sits down with David McGinley — psychospiritual specialist, former Lutheran pastor, and 25-year hospital chaplain based in Halifax, Nova Scotia. What begins as a conversation about a rare and life-threatening illness quickly opens into one of the most profound explorations of consciousness, faith, death, and the nature of the afterlife. ________________ Squarespace FREE Trial & 10% OFF purchase: https://www.squarespace.com/ROUNDTRIP Coupon Code: ROUNDTRIP _________________ David has faced cancer four times and as a result has had multiple NDE's, including a full near-death experience at age 27 that he describes as the single most transformative event of his life. Over three decades later, that experience continues to shape everything he does: how he sits with the dying, how he counsels the grieving, how he thinks about God, and how he understands the purpose of his own existence. What makes David's perspective especially compelling is that he has lived on both sides of the hospital bed. David shares the vivid details of his near-death experiences: the grassy hill, the celestial being who greeted him like an old friend, the overwhelming sense of being completely and utterly home, and the heartbreaking moment when he realized he could not stay. He reflects on the painful return to physical consciousness — the feeling of his expanded awareness being compressed back into the narrow confines of ego, language, and linear thought — and the years of quiet grief that followed, before he even had the vocabulary to understand what had happened to him. The conversation also turns to David's work advocating for a richer understanding of NDEs within faith communities, his serious concerns about the expansion of medical assistance in dying (euthanasia) in Canada, and the urgent message he believes near-death research holds for clergy who may be proclaiming hope on Sunday mornings without fully realizing how much empirical support that hope actually has. He closes with a tender, eloquent message of comfort for anyone listening who is grieving the loss of a loved one — a reminder that no one walks alone, and that all the love we have known in this life is preparing us for something even greater.

London Pedestrian Hit by Double Decker Bus - Leads to NDE

In this transformative episode, host Eric Bennett sits down with Liane Marie Lambert, who experienced an NDE after being hit by a double-decker bus in London over 20 years ago. What started as a traumatic accident that cracked her skull in two became the catalyst for a profound spiritual awakening and life mission. Liane shares her unique NDE (near death experience) perspective, where she experienced herself outside her body (OBE), witnessing both herself on the ground and the frightened bus driver. Though brief, this NDE experience opened a floodgate of spiritual exploration that led her to become an ascension coach and author. The conversation explores consciousness, multi-dimensional existence, karma, and what it means to "ascend from 3D to 5D," with a little woo woo thrown in. Leanne offers practical wisdom on shadow work, releasing karmic entanglements, and living as "walking karma" - a state where negative projections bounce back to their source rather than affecting you. This episode bridges spirituality and traditional religious concepts, showing how different languages describe the same profound truths about human existence and our connection to the divine.

A Christian's Near Death Experience (NDE) With Hell

In this extended episode of Round Trip Death, we hear the full story and NDE Experience of Billie Kay Rains, a 79-year-old woman from Texas who chose to speak publicly as she nears the end of her life. ________________ Squarespace FREE Trial & 10% OFF purchase: https://www.squarespace.com/ROUNDTRIP Coupon Code: ROUNDTRIP _________________ Billie Kay describes a period of intense spiritual searching in the early 1970s that led her away from organized religion and into Transcendental Meditation and altered states of consciousness. Over time, this search unraveled into psychological distress and loss of identity, culminating in a suicide attempt and emergency hospitalization. During resuscitation, Billie Kay reports a profound Near Death Experience, describing awareness without a body, total darkness, and an encounter she believes was demonic. Pulled back repeatedly, she awoke with immediate mental clarity and emotional change. Later, while hospitalized, she experienced an unexplained golden light that became a lasting turning point in her faith. This NDE shaped how she understands spiritual vulnerability, discernment, and consequence. The episode then follows Billie Kay across decades of life shaped by her NDE, including what she believes were divine healings, narrowly avoided deaths, and moments of supernatural guidance. She also speaks candidly about profound loss—the collapse of her marriage, the end of her career, and the death of her daughter—events she interprets through the lens of accountability, mercy, and return. Throughout the conversation, Billie Kay emphasizes her belief that an NDE Experience or Near Death Experience is not equivalent to final death, and that truth and salvation must be actively chosen. She shares this NDE not as a story of spiritual triumph, but as a warning marked by fear, regret, grace, and what she believes is a final call to speak before her life ends. Content Warning: This episode contains discussion of a suicide attempt, death, and intense religious experiences. Nothing graphic is described, but listener discretion is advised.

3 NDE's, Saw The Universe

Imagine seeing what seemed like the entire universe and feeling a love so great that it can't be described in words! In this episode of Round Trip Death, host Eric Bennett welcomes Masati, a rare three-time Near Death Experience survivor, for an expansive and thought-provoking conversation about consciousness, identity, and what happens when we die. Masati’s story includes three distinct NDE Experiences, each occurring at a different stage of his life and each revealing deeper layers of understanding. His first NDE happened at age 22 after a catastrophic workplace accident, where he experienced full separation from his physical body and a profound life review free from judgment or guilt. This initial Near Death Experience revealed to him the limitations of physical identity and the vast potential of human consciousness. Years later, Masati’s second NDE Experience occurred during a near-fatal drowning in Belize. This NDE expanded his awareness even further, showing him a realm beyond time and space where all possibilities exist simultaneously. He describes encountering an expansive blue field of consciousness and receiving what he calls a “download” of how reality functions at a fundamental level. Masati’s third Near Death Experience, which took place in Peru during a severe health crisis, completed what he views as a progression—from learning, to application, to embodiment. This final NDE left measurable physical changes and marked a shift into vitality, integration, and mastery. Throughout the conversation, Masati challenges conventional ideas about death, religion, success, and healing. Rather than fear or punishment, he describes the NDE realm as one of clarity, love, and understanding—offering insights meant not just to be witnessed, but lived.

Tammy is "Freaked Out" by NDE (Near Death Experience)

In this episode of Round Trip Death, host Eric Bennett, sits down with Tammy Cheney, a lifelong traveler whose path was profoundly altered by a near-death–like (NDE) experience following a head injury. Tammy shares how a series of spiritual awakenings culminated in an instantaneous transport to what she describes as “home”—a realm more real than physical life, permeated by unconditional love, vivid colors, soundless tones, and living light. Guided by two silent, luminous beings, Tammy's NDE takes her to an otherworldly landscape where flowers always face the observer, scents blend into a single transcendent fragrance, and love exists as the very fabric of reality. Her NDE journey deepens when she encounters countless light beings and a vast, sun-like presence she instinctively recognizes as God. The moment she expresses her desire to return and tell others, she finds herself back in her body. The NDE experience leaves Tammy temporarily unable to speak, profoundly transformed, and driven to share what she witnessed—at great personal cost. Though misunderstood by those around her, Tammy emerges with a complete absence of fear of death and an unshakable certainty that physical life is temporary. This conversation explores the nature of consciousness, the illusion of death, and how a single encounter with unconditional love can irrevocably change a life.

The Investigation of NDEs (Near Death Experiences)

In this episode of Round Trip Death, host Eric Bennett and guest Donald Winner take a deep investigative dive into near-death experiences (NDEs) using the tools of intelligence analysis rather than belief or doctrine. _________________ Squarespace FREE Trial & 10% OFF purchase: https://www.squarespace.com/ROUNDTRIP Coupon Code: ROUNDTRIP _________________ Drawing on decades of experience in military intelligence and journalism, Don explains how he began studying NDEs after his father briefly lost consciousness and wondered aloud if that moment felt like dying. What started as curiosity turned into a large-scale analysis of thousands of NDE accounts. Don explains that when viewed collectively, near-death experiences reveal remarkable consistency: out-of-body perception, movement through darkness or a tunnel, encounters with light or an intelligence, life reviews, and reunions with deceased loved ones. While individual experiences vary in detail, the underlying structure remains strikingly uniform—much like people describing the same journey from different perspectives. He also explains how he evaluates authenticity, including the development of a computer-based scoring model that analyzes transcripts for known NDE markers. According to Don, true NDEs are marked by clarity, coherence, and emotional authenticity—unlike hallucinations or drug-induced visions. The conversation expands into the origins of religion, with Don proposing that ancient near-death experiences—shared orally for hundreds of thousands of years—may be the foundation for humanity’s earliest concepts of the soul, the afterlife, and God. Importantly, he emphasizes that belief systems don’t seem to dictate what happens after death; atheists, Christians, and people of all faiths report similar core experiences. This episode offers a grounded, analytical, and thought-provoking exploration of what may await us beyond death—without asking listeners to believe anything blindly.

NDEs: More Questions Than Answers

What happens when love becomes so pure that missing someone is no longer possible? In this episode of Round Trip Death, host Eric Bennett talks with author and spiritual teacher Darnella Ford. ___________________ Birch Natural Mattresses Podcast Listeners Receive Up to 30% OFF BirchLiving.com/Roundtrip ____________________ Darnella recounts losing her best friend to lupus — a chilling premonition, an eerie final text, a shared death experience (SDE), and a visitation where her friend walked through a wall to say: stop crying. Even more striking is her account of being pulled into the realm where her friend now exists, discovering that some deeply human emotions, like missing someone, simply don't exist there. This isn't just another NDE Experience story — it's a look at the bigger questions a Near Death Experience forces us to ask: Is death timed and orchestrated, or random? Do we truly have free will, or are we running on autopilot and childhood programming? Darnella and Eric debate predestination versus agency and what it means to "win" against death, leaving plenty of room for skepticism.
