So Matt, have you ever had something happen where you think of a person that you haven't

thought of in a really long time and then you get a text from that person?

I mean, yeah, that just sounds like a coincidence to me.

So many people have reported that. It's happened to me too.

What we're going to talk about today is the evidence that maybe sometimes when that happens it's not just a coincidence.

I've subsequently developed a whole series of experiments for telephone telepathy, the phenomenon

whereby you think of somebody who then calls and you say, that's funny, I was just thinking about you.

Then the question is, is it chance coincidence,

and you only remember when you're right, forget the millions of times you're wrong,

or is there more to it?

That was former Cambridge biochemist Rupert Sheldrick.

More from him later.

Mark, you're saying that guessing who's texting you is telepathic.

Come on, man, that seems like a stretch.

The theory of this podcast is that consciousness isn't confined to our brains. And if that's true,

as we've said, psychic abilities like telepathy should be real. This episode is all about

telepathy. Telepathy? Like, hold on, like about telepathy. Telepathy?

Like, hold on, like real telepathy.

Yeah.

It happens all the time.

It's just very subtle.

This goes back to our whirlpool analogy again from Dr. Bernardo Castro.
