Episode Description from the Publisher

What does one do when one finds oneself nose to absence of nose with those who claim they are on a mighty quest to save that which they themselves have admittingly destroyed? Fortuitously encountering you, along their journey for Sur-thrival and deemed lucky you scoop-up-able simply for being in their path. Like so much wildlife in some sort of unannounced breeding program that you remain ignorantly unaware of the role that you play concerning their “cosmic” visions for some grand design or even just a simple curiosity. Thank you for joining us as we ponder the peculiar puzzle that is the genetic interest and undertaking of the exceptionally icky. Is this Woo Woo just trying to get its Freak on? Or is this something much more disturbing? For our Plus+ extension, we cover Anita Moorjani's Dying to Be Me, one of the most remarkable and widely discussed near-death experience accounts of the modern era. We follow her journey from a multicultural upbringing in Hong Kong, through years of fear, people-pleasing, and a devastating battle with lymphoma, to the extraordinary experience she reported during a 2006 coma and the unexpected recovery that followed. Along the way, we explore identity, mortality, and the idea that sometimes the hardest thing in life is simply being yourself.
