Consciousness After Death: Telephone Cal...

MICHELLE
About this episode

There are potentially hundreds of people who have experienced bizarre events of Telephone Calls from the Dead, and much like ghosts, and any other parapsychological phenomena, they appear to be highly common. Once all explanations have been considered, psychological and physical, are we genuinely faced with the reality of contact with the dead and evidence for survival? Joining me to discuss his books, research and more is Dr. Callum Cooper.

My Special Guest Is Dr Callum Cooper
