<a target="_blank" href="https://www.buzzsprout.com/216775/fan_mail/new">Send us Fan Mail</a>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 around the house where I live.Regarding the content of this podcast. Gladys Osborne Leonard was the favoured medium of the time and very talented. I also think that she was an attractive woman which gave her prominence amongst certain male investigators of the time. She features strongly in this podcast as there was so much content about her in the SPR publications.Also mentioned are a number of alleged apparitions and telepathic dreams of servicemen serving in the war reported in the SPR publications.There are book reviews of the time, Oliver Lodge, William Barrett and Margaret Murray were the books I chose to showcase. Non of which have stood the test of time.Cross-correspondence continued to be a puzzle that needed to be solved by the clever minds of the SPR investigators. It almost seems that those trying to make sense of the puzzle are showing off how clever they are.There were some American case influences discussed in the SPR publications. James Hyslop is being  outspoken about his views, drowning out others.There was what was known as the Folkestone poltergeist case which I covered in detail with associated subjects a few years back, but good to mention an interesting case.There does seem to be a shift in thoughts about  paranormal phenomena being about psychological issues in the articles. I am just posting podcasts as I finish them now rather than scheduling trying to space them out. I have finished the next podcast in this sequence covering four years 1919-1922 but have not recorded it yet, so will probably post it next week for anyone that may be interested. After that there will be a true crime or cryptozoology episode.
