In this episode, I’m joined by Dr Donna Thomas, whose research explores children’s extraordinary and so-called “extrasensory” experiences.

We discuss:

The unexamined materialist assumptions embedded in social science

What we mean by “self,” “identity,” and “subjectivity”

Children’s reports of unusual experiences

Whether physicalist models have sufficient explanatory power

Why certain forms of experience are dismissed before being examined

This is not a conversation about belief. It’s a discussion about explanatory frameworks and intellectual honesty.
