49:14Now PlayingMakai Elías Calles is a health journalist and filmmaker at The Epoch Times. He joins Zuby to discuss his documentary 'Final Hours', a deep dive into the phenomenon of near-death experiences (NDEs). Makai shares how interviewing people who died and came back forced him to confront cases that should not be scientifically possible, including a Harvard neurosurgeon with an offline neocortex who returned with a fully lucid memory. The conversation covers cross-cultural NDE patterns, why survivors often come back depressed, the concept of veridical perception, and more.
