| 0:00.0 | From Wondry, I'm Nikki Boyer, and this is Call Me Curious, where every week I'll get to the bottom of those funny, strange, puzzling, or just got-a-no questions you have. |
| 0:18.1 | And we'll tell you the best we can what the answer is. |
| 0:22.2 | Because I've got 21 questions. I've been 21 guessing you could teach me a lesson. |
| 0:29.5 | Call me curious. Call me curious. Call me curious. I'm curious. |
| 0:38.6 | So tell the truth. |
| 0:53.5 | Hi, welcome to the show. |
| 0:56.4 | I am so happy that you're here today. Thanks for being here. |
| 1:02.9 | So this is going to be an interesting show because I, Nikki Boyer, am a woman of science. |
| 1:12.3 | I believe in facts, empirical evidence, hard data. But I also know that there are certain things in this world that science just cannot explain. |
| 1:19.2 | So even though I know it seems ridiculous, there's a teeny tiny part of me that believes it's possible to play a board game with ghosts. |

| 1:45.9 | have a little quirky side because I think you tap into that sort of spiritual zone in the work that |
| 1:51.8 | you do as well. So tell everyone how you're sort of a medium, right? I mean, can I say that? |
| 1:56.7 | Yes, you can say that. Thank you. I like to say I'm an intuitive reader because it's all based on intuition. But yes, this is my wheelhouse, Nikki. I'm so excited. I love it. So let's talk about Ouichie boards. Like, what do you think of Ouija boards? Do you think that they work or are they a crock? I do believe in Ouija boards. I think they've gotten a bad rap in movies and in the media. |
| 2:18.7 | Yeah. |
| 2:19.3 | It's mostly in movies. |
| 2:20.5 | It gets a bad rap. |
| 2:21.5 | Have you used one? |
| 2:22.2 | Like, do you use it ever? |
