S3 Ep1: Talking With the Dead

IN THIS EPISODE What if the Ouija board was just an early form of AI? What if a cassette tape held a secret no one was supposed to hear? And what if two true believers built a machine they called a telephone to the dead — and it actually worked? Or did it? This episode begins where most conversations end: What happens when we die? It's a question host Christopher Wynn has been circling lately — one that led him down a rabbit hole connecting youthful experiments with the unknown, a crackling 1984 radio broadcast and the strange, controversial invention known as the Spiricom. Guest Richard Hatem knows something about chasing the unexplained. The screenwriter and TV producer behind The Mothman Prophecies (Richard Gere, Laura Linney) has built a career at the edge of the strange. But this is the story of how the strange chased him first.
