S3E17 Psychic or Psychotic?
Manage episode 422045612 series 3451640
Are you ready to tune in to something supernatural, or at least super-natural-ish? Then you've got ESP (Excellent Show Perception).
This week, we're dusting off our crystal balls and this vintage episode of We Knew The Moon here Randa and Dee take a running jump into the mystical world of psychics. We'll explore the thin line between the sixth sense and nonsense.
What's in the cards for you in this episode:
Fake It Till You Make It?: We'll explore the art of cold reading and other sneaky techniques that make psychics seem like they know everything from your first pet's name to your secret love for pineapple pizza.
Derren Brown's Mind Games: How this master of illusion and mentalism has exposed psychic tricks with the flair of a stage magician and the scepticism of a scientist.
Earpiecegate: Dive into the controversy surrounding psychic Sally Morgan and her "spiritual" guidance. Was it divine intervention or just really good radio reception?
Astrologer-in-Chief: We can't forget Joan Quigley, the astrologer who had a hotline to the White House! Find out how her star charts and cosmic counsel found their way into the heart of American politics through Nancy and Ronald Reagan.
So, tune in, open your third eye (or just your regular ones), and prepare for an episode that's equal parts eerie and hilarious. Join us as we attempt to contact the 'other side' and end up just getting a busy signal.
