Someone close to me had a overdose induced NDE and the peculiar thing is they seemed to retain consciousness of who they were *on the other side".

They were still "Bob" in other words. The reason this is significant as some would speculate that we lose our identity im the hereafter but perhaps we don't.

It's interesting to think about. I'll go ahead and give a listen. Sorry if the meme was too flippant considering the depth of the subject matter.
