What drives someone to develop and hone their psychic abilities? Join me, Ryan Peterson, as I kick off the premiere episode of "Discerning the Unknown" with my long-time friend and esteemed guest, John Russell. From our early interviews back in 2003 to the present, John's journey as a psychic and investigator has been nothing short of fascinating. We reminisce about those early days and dive into his influential books, like "Riding with Ghosts, Angels and the Spirits of the Dead" and "20 Ways to Increase Your Psychic Abilities." Prepare to be captivated by personal anecdotes and stories that challenge conventional beliefs, all while encouraging you to stay open-minded and curious.
In this episode, we tackle the darker side of the psychic and spiritual world, helping you identify and avoid common scams. From notorious figures like Peter Popoff and Ernest Angley to the everyday tactics used by fraudulent psychics, we expose the methods of manipulation and emphasize the importance of critical thinking. Through revealing personal experiences and practical advice, we aim to equip you with the knowledge necessary to navigate this often-deceptive landscape. It's a candid look at the pitfalls and potential dangers that lurk within the realm of psychic practices.
We also explore the intriguing world of spirit photography and the impact of historical figures like Harry Houdini on modern-day skepticism. Reflecting on John Russell's experiences with spirit photography and psychic predictions, including a perfect track record with presidential elections, we weave a narrative that underscores the importance of questioning visual evidence and sensational claims. Ending on a thought-provoking note, we delve into religious indoctrination, the arbitrary nature of tribalism, and the shared humanity that unites us all. Join us on this journey to challenge beliefs, reveal truths, and advocate for healing and improvement for everyone.
