For those of you who don't know the Skeptiko (with two k!) website by Alex Tsakiris, don't be deterred by the name. It is actually a 'open-minded' skeptic podcast / interview show / forum etc. Alex is actually a proponent of all things paranormal and wants to support any paranormal research which he sees favourably. He also interviews "skeptics" and mostly gets into arguments with them and their shallow arguments and uninformedness to save their close-minded worldview (and those of their 'followers').
I listened to it over the years as he does it for long now. Of course, like many here, you somehow 'evolve" out of this mindset with a need to discuss paranormal research or the world-view of materialism and the skeptic denial and all that.
Nowadays I even shun discussions with skeptics because it is fruitless. Sometimes you reach a point where you got beyond he need and will where you have to quarrel with or to convince those you cannot convince and so the case is closed. Actually it almost literally hurts me now to listen to these people.
But from time to time he has good open-minded researchers and other guests on and then I listen in again, like for this one:
So here is the most recent with Jeffrey Long, one of the leading NDE researchers and book author. He also has a nice website going on for many years with countless NDE and OBE accounts and related stuff.
