Summary

It's a common trope in film and TV -- a police department at their wits' end calls in a favor and makes contact with a genuine psychic, someone in tune with the greater mysteries of life, death and the universe. In works of fiction these individuals often do possess some spark of extraordinary ability, but what about in real life? Join the guys as they delve into the world of true crime and allegations of ESP to discover whether any real-life psychics have solved actual crimes.

0:24.1	Hello, welcome back to the show. My name is Matt. Nole is on adventures today.
0:29.5	Yes, they call me Ben, but most importantly you are you. You are here. That makes this stuff they

1:02.6	on the show, right? Earlier you predicted that today's episode would be a success. Yes.
1:11.0	And not vague at all. Now I have a strange inkling that someone who is listening to the show

2:08.3	right now. So wow. We are starting this off on a little bit of a, let's say a little bit of a
2:17.6	glib note. You just cast a net, you know? And today folks, we are tackling something. Many of you
