EP. # 1345 “The Flying Saint: Did the Church Witness Levitation… or Bury the Truth?”

In Counter-Reformation Italy, under the watchful eye of the Roman Inquisition, a humble friar defied gravity—rising before stunned witnesses. Was Joseph of Cupertino a true mystic… or something far stranger? Tonight, Richard Syrett and Michael Johnson investigate one of history’s most unsettling supernatural cases.

GUEST: Michael Johnson is a novelist and independent researcher who writes under the pen name Brother Ludovico. He is the author of A Little Bird On A String, a meticulously researched historical novel exploring the life and mystery of Joseph of Cupertino. Blending theology, history, and the paranormal, Johnson examines the uneasy boundary between sanctity and the unexplained.

BOOK: 

A Little Bird on a String: A Book About a Monk that Flew
