In this episode, Dani Foffa interviews Dr. Jeffrey Long and Jody Long, founders of the Near-Death Experience Research Foundation (NDERF), at the IANDS 2025 Conference. Drawing on more than 25 years of research and over 4,000 documented near-death experiences (NDEs), they share compelling scientific evidence for the continuity of consciousness after death.

Dr. Jeffrey Long, a medical doctor and New York Times bestselling author of Evidence of the Afterlife, explains how consistent, cross-cultural NDE accounts challenge materialist assumptions and reduce fear of death. Together, the Longs discuss the concept of being an “afterlifer,” global NDE patterns, spiritual transformation, and practical resources for skeptics interested in evidence-based afterlife research.
