106. Psychic Medium Experiment Not Enough to Convince Skeptics

Righteous Indignation Skeptics not persuaded by psychic medium experiment, find fault with controls and results.

Join Skeptiko host Alex Tsakiris for discussion with Michael Marshall, Trystan Swale Gavin Schofield of the Righteous Indignation Podcast. During the hour-long discussion the group discusses a variety of topics including psychic medium communication experiments like the ones carried out by Dr. Julie Bieschel of the Windbridge Institute, and human consciousness experiments like those from the Global Consciousness Project headed by Dr. Roger Nelson.

Although the panel remains divided on the conclusions that can be drawn from this research, they found common ground on the need for dialog among skeptics and believers. “Everyone hates the phrase ‘skeptics versus believers’, but that’s where the lines of debate are usually drawn… the key to generating any understanding between these groups is to keep the dialog going and resist the urge to shut down and stop listening”, Skeptiko host Alex Tsakiris stated.
