Parcelabale Object recieved with null values?

Question

So within a profile activity, when a user clicks on a post, it takes them to the PostActivity, where they can view comments, and comment themselves. Between ProfileActivity and PostActivity, I add a parcelable extra to the intent:

 Intent postPage = new Intent(this, PostActivity.class);
                    postPage.putExtra("POST", post);
                    startActivity(postPage);

And I retrieve it in the new activity as such:

mIntent = getIntent();
        mPost = mIntent.getParcelableExtra("POST");

Upon running the app in debug mode, I can see that it's being shipped with all the attributes set, but upon getting it in the PostActivity, it still exists as an object, but none of its values exist. They're all null.

Here is my Post object class:

package com.kevinhaube.crumbs.utils;

import android.os.Parcel;
import android.os.Parcelable;

import com.parse.ParseClassName;
import com.parse.ParseObject;

/**
 * Created by kevinhaube on 4/20/15.
 */

@ParseClassName("Post")
public class Post extends ParseObject implements Parcelable {

    String mAuthor;
    String mLocation;
    String mPostText;
    int mTimeRemaining;

    public Post() {

    }

    public String getPostText() {
        return getString("postText");
    }

    public void setPostText(String postText) {
        mPostText = postText;
        put("postText", postText);
    }

    public String getAuthor() {
        return getString("author");
    }

    public void setAuthor(String author) {
        mAuthor = author;
        put("author", author);
    }

    public String getLocation() {
        return getString("location");
    }

    public void setLocation(String location) {
        mLocation = location;
        put("location", location);
    }

    public int getTimeRemaining() {
        return getInt("timeRemaining");
    }

    public void setTimeRemaining(int time) {
        mTimeRemaining = time;
        put("timeRemaining", time);
    }

    @Override
    public int describeContents() {
        return 0;
    }

    @Override
    public void writeToParcel(Parcel dest, int flags) {
        dest.writeString(mAuthor);
        dest.writeString(mLocation);
        dest.writeString(mPostText);
        dest.writeInt(mTimeRemaining);
    }

    public static final Parcelable.Creator<Post> CREATOR = new Parcelable.Creator<Post>() {
        public Post createFromParcel(Parcel in) {
            return new Post(in);
        }

        public Post[] newArray(int size) {
            return new Post[size];
        }
    };

    private Post(Parcel in) {
        mAuthor = in.readString();
        mLocation = in.readString();
        mPostText = in.readString();
        mTimeRemaining = in.readInt();
    }
}
