About the episode

Seeing a bright light or hovering as a spirit over one’s own body have become  cultural tropes to describe near-death experiences. Dr Jeffrey Long - a cancer expert who practices in Kentucky - believes they have become tropes because they are true - after decades of studying thousands of cases. Dr Long, a former skeptic, argued that years of researching the similarities among different accounts of people's brushes with death have upended his own beliefs about a possible afterlife.
