Bonus-wag: Shaking Hands with the Dead
☠️🤝☠️ Join Paul and Stephen for a special bonus episode as they sit down with investigative journalist Leslie Kean. The topic? Spirit hands—ethereal entities that connect the living and the dead. Leslie describes witnessing famed British spirit medium Stewart Alexander conjuring spirit hands seemingly from nothing – conjuring a black amorphous goo into undead hands. But…these experiences are not just anecdotal. As Leslie explains, the proof lies in the pudding, which, in this case, are hot wax molds that reside in the Institut Métapsychique International in Paris. Did somebody say European vacation? As the conversation unfolds, Paul, Stephen, and Leslie discuss the resurgence of psychedelic culture and…sensory deprivation tanks.
