📻✋🏼♆
It’s back to the WagBag we go!
This week, Chinwag listener Scott S. writes in with an account of his grandfather’s panic during Orson Welles’s famed 1938 "The War of the Worlds" broadcast. Paul recalls his own grandfather’s memory of that fateful broadcast, as well as that of the Hindenburg!
Then, Barbara C. writes us with a fascinating tutorial of different types of intuitives. There are so many ways folks deign to read the future, including tarot cards, palms, crystal balls, and yes, penis shapes. And can you guess the most asked question by women to psychics? It might not be what you think!
Paul Giamatti is an award-winning actor and producer, and the self-proclaimed Emperor of Neptune. Stephen Asma is a professor and author specializing in the philosophy of science, religion, and art. He also is the acting Minister of Triton for the Chinwag.
