Episode 305 - Grand Canyon Cures (Parapsychology, Part 1)

Hey there friends and weirdos! In this one, Kyle tells Nile all about the origins and history of psychical research and the various societies for parapsychology! How did we get from "animal magnetism" and mesmerism to the "rigorous" academic pursuit of physical explanations for paranormal phenomena? Very carefully! And sometimes without the proper academic rigor. Part one of a two part episode!
