    Inspired by the Chattering With interviews that Nicholas Vince does, I'm curious to know your thoughts and answers on the following.


    1) What are your thoughts on the afterlife, and what do you think it would be like?

    2) What three movies would you bring with you?

    3) What three books would you bring with you?

    4) What three other sources of entertainment would you bring? (ex: video games, board games)

    5) What piece of furniture would you bring with you?

    6) What three other miscellaneous things would you bring?

    I think that was all of them, but I could be wrong. This will be fun :grin:

    I don't necessarily believe in an afterlife, but if it's real I would just make sure to bring my computer lmao

    1. I'm not sure about the afterlife. I believe that you live multiple lives and that your previous lives influence your life now. For example, I'm terrified of heights, so I could assume that in a previous life, I fell to my death.
    2. The Adventures of Priscilla: Queen of the Desert, Goldeneye, Mamma Mia
    3. Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix, The World According to Clarkson, 365 Super Cars You Must Drive.
    4. My Roku, MacBook, Xbox One
    5. My desk, I love my desk very much.
    6. My Beats, my turntable, and my vinyls.

    Hi there. Just wanted to say thank you for the shout out, about the Luggage in the Crypt interviews. It's a format I've not used for a while on my show, as it allowed less chance for viewers to post questions. And yes, you got the list of questions complete. :slight_smile:

    And I wish everyone here a safe journey in life.

    Seems to me that the afterlife would entail letting go of worldly possessions and desires. Yet of course that's not a universal concept of it.

    Coming from a very deeply rooted catholic family and being gay has made me think about God and the afterlife a lot. I'd like to say that there is no God and no afterlife and that this is the one chance you get to live. However if there was an afterlife I'd like to let all of the materialistic and pointless things that this life entails behind me.

    Anyway first I'd bring The Grand Budapest Hotel as my movie
    My favourite book is milk and honey - a book of poetry
    I'd definitely take my laptop
    And for furniture it would be my bed
    Finally I would bring a bike

    I would want my dogs present and those already passed. Then I want all my family, my 1976 Buick Electra 225, my grandmother White's house as it was in 1976. That would be heaven to me. I would want my 4k TV and Netflix, YouTube, and my Xbox One Elete with games as well.

    I am afraid we return for multiple lives, my spirit is tired and I really don't want to live another life but much hope to arrive in Heaven. Though being stuck as a ghost haunting my house is a worse thought. June

    1) I don't believe in an afterlife. There's life, and that's it. The chemical signals in your brain stop firing, your organs stop working: you're dead. However, if there was an afterlife...

    2) Four Weddings and a Funeral, Man on Wire and Wall-E

    3) The Go-Between, Brave New World and a dictionary

    4) Laptop, record player (and records), Scrabble set

    5) My bed

    6) Fountain pen, hairdryer, bicycle
