And then his good friend John Paul said that he goes there and he would put pillows on his head to block out stuff. And then his girlfriend Lily said she goes there and that a lot of people congregate there and that there's more than one hill. So I had a hard time wrapping my head around that. And at first I'm like, okay, it's an Atlanta thing. Like the individuals in Atlanta are doing this.

Where I really talk about a two by four, like there's been a few moments. And for one for me was when I had just met this new teacher in Chicago. She had no idea about telepathy at all. She had reached out to Dr. Powell because her students were talking about ghosts and seeing ghosts and knowing things. And it totally weirded her out. Not weird, like it was just weird.

So she hops on the call with me and Dr. Powell. She's explaining this. I did a follow-up call with her once she saw that the Tlapit was happening. And then she said, and you would not believe it, like some of the kids are saying they go to this place called The Hill. And on The Hill, they can learn this and learn that. And I thought, what? And then...

fully third person was this minister from like a mega church in Arizona. I met him. He was very nervous to talk about this. He was writing his own book. He thought this was only in his congregation that he, you know, again, it was a miracle that he alone was privy to.

I met him and then he was telling me a story about how one of his students would just met with another non-speaker from another church in another state. And he's like, and they were talking about the weirdest thing when they're getting off the phone, they started spelling to each other, meet me at the hill. And And he's like, do you know what that is?

And I think I was stunned because now here's someone in Minnesota talking about Arizona, Chicago, and Atlanta. So after I had to go through a lot of Hill references to believe it myself, and now there's no doubt in my mind.

Yeah, it's cool. It's very frustrating, I think, for a lot of non-speakers because you want to do something and your body totally betrays you. You might want to enter a room and instead you're leaving it. And the only time it seems like they're able to really gather and communicate their true thoughts is through spelling.

That mind-body disconnect taught me a lot because, for instance, Akil, who we feature in episode two, he didn't know where his body was. And for a lot of people who need to be touched when they first learn spelling, it's because they don't know where their body is. Akil didn't know he had fingers. He had to be massaged over and over.

I remember Houston, when he first was spelling, he said he needed heavy boots so he knew where the ground was. And so you can imagine, if you don't feel connected to your body to the point where you don't even think you have one, You're living in the mental world. That consciousness is fundamental.

I think it's less about non-speaking. People, I don't think it has much to do with autism at all. I think it has to do with apraxia and not being connected to your body.
