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.
