Send us Fan Mail Society of Psychical Research investigations 1917 and 1918. Usual poor narration, warning this is lo-fi, recorded in one take and no editing. There are also mistakes. I call Oliver lodge a physicist when he was a physician. I was conscious of this mistake at the time but there may be more. I am not a professional podcaster, I just enjoy making them rather than watching tv or scrolling through social media. I have full time work and am trying to rewild the farmland aroun...

Although Silvers was in jail there may have been attempts to silence those who may have know of other crimes. Bent police were a complication in trying to understand what was going on. Different OCGs had different corrupt police helping them. I...

Send a text This is a story you have not heard before. It comes from the unpublished papers of Eric Dingwall. It concerns an incident at Ham Hill in Somerset that was investigated by Dingwall.

Send us a text This is another podcast looking at some investigations by the Society of Psychical Research during 1915 and 1916 during World War 1. So not a podcast to interest everyone.

Each month (in conjunction with the usual podcast content) I shall broadcast a podcast giving selected stories from SPR’s journal as they have been bound together (two years at a time) in the British Library. I am starting with the journals from 1913/14 and will continue in chronological order. I have started with World War 1 being the start of the modern world. I can spare the time to make an SPR p...
