We’ve all experienced de-ja-vu, dreams, premonitions and other psychic phenomenon. Yet many scientists and scholars want to convince us that all these occurrences are merely coincidence, with no basis in scientific fact.

In today’s world there is a growing awareness of occurrences beyond the tangible, and it is obvious that the public has a deep interest in psychic phenomena. Why is it that
some scientists still hold on to the archaic mindset that these occurrences just can’t be, regardless of evidence?

Researcher Chris Carter will take your audience on a journey through modern science, psychology, philosophy and history. He will describe the compelling evidence for psychic phenomena, and boldly investigate why skeptics go to extraordinary lengths to deny and condemn all such evidence. He will reveal why this controversy has lasted for centuries, and why, finally, we may be capable of resolving this issue.
Chris will take calls from listeners and discuss:

• Why there is a determined resistance to accept scientific evidence that in any other circumstance would be considered conclusive.

• The history of parapsychology and its struggle for legitimacy.

• Shocking, rarely reported scandals which include historical figures.

• Callers own experiences with psychic phenomenon.

• Why some people are flat-out terrified that these things could be true.
