Apports and Other Anomalous Phenomena with Keith Thompson

New Thinking AllowedOct 26, 2026

Author Keith Thompson joins Jeffrey Mishlove to discuss his book Anomalous Phenomena, which argues that mind and matter are not separate but points on a dynamic spectrum that interact in surprising ways. Starting with the Scole Experiment, where objects such as an 1891 penny and a 1944 newspaper allegedly materialized during seances, Thompson links apports to near-death experiences, stigmata, Navajo Bigfoot cases, and shape-shifting UFOs. He shares his own near-death experience and his mother's deathbed visitation as personal evidence that our scientific maps, not reality, contain the anomalies.

The Scole Experiment with Robin Foy (1943 - 2022) (4K Reboot)

Robin Foy, founder of the Scole Experimental Group, describes five years of seances in the cellar of his Norfolk home in which two trance mediums allegedly produced spirit lights, materializations, voices, and images on unopened film. He claims the spirit team was joined by extraterrestrials, including a small blue being and a miniature UFO, and even by Thomas Edison, who supposedly supplied a blueprint for a transdimensional communication device. Foy says the experiment ended in 1998 after time travelers from roughly a century in the future accidentally interfered through the spirit portal.

The Case for the Afterlife with Chris Carter

New Thinking AllowedAug 28, 2026

Oxford-educated physics teacher Chris Carter joins psychologist Jeffrey Mishlove to argue that science, done properly, does not rule out life after death and may actually support it. Carter lays out five independent lines of evidence, namely deathbed visions, near-death experiences, apparitions, children who remember past lives, and communication through mediums, which he says all point to the survival of consciousness. Highlights include a chess match allegedly played between a living grandmaster and a dead one through a medium, and a dying woman who 'saw' a sister whose death had been kept from her.

Unveiling Hidden Realities with Christopher Noël (4K Reboot)

Author and Sasquatch researcher Christopher Noël argues that there is no real veil between the living and the dead, and that spirit and ordinary matter occupy the same space. Drawing on a teenage Ouija board encounter with a ghost named John Waite, he proposes that dark matter may be the long-sought 'spirit stuff', and perhaps the substance of consciousness itself. He uses this idea to explain cold spots, apports, table levitation, and spirit voices as shifts in the ratio between visible and invisible matter.

Researching Spirit Mediums with Mark Boccuzzi (4K Reboot)

New Thinking AllowedAug 18, 2026

Parapsychologist Mark Boccuzzi of the Windbridge Research Center joins Jeffrey Mishlove to discuss more than a decade of scientific research into spirit mediums. He explains how modern secular mediums report being able to tell the difference between psychic information from the living and communication from the dead, which leads his team to lean toward the survival hypothesis over super-psi explanations. The conversation covers blood and brain studies of mediums, a surprising link between mediumship, childhood trauma, and autoimmune disease, and whether mediumship readings can help people suffering from traumatic grief.

Cultivating Physical Mediumship with Robin Foy (1943 - 2022) (4K Reboot)

New Thinking AllowedAug 13, 2026

Robin Foy, founder of the Noah's Ark Society and the famous Scole Experiment, recounts five decades of pursuing physical mediumship, from his first seance circle in Leicester in 1973 to sittings with direct voice medium Leslie Flint. He describes startling claimed phenomena, including a pet hamster and dog allegedly teleported by spirits and a spirit team that taught his group to produce phenomena using 'creative energy' instead of ectoplasm. He also explains how spirit messages, including clues about goats with bells and golden eagles, led him to a property near a sacred mountain in Antequera, Spain, for a new Spiritual Science center.
