In David Cronenberg's body-horror cult classic "Scanners", members of the public with special psychic and telekinetic powers are recruited by weapons manufacturer ConSec.

Jamie and Martin do not mention the Canadian director's 1981 film, but they do discuss scanning.

Visual perception is the topic du jour in The 3rd Circle, and unlikely Swedish champions Mjallby AIF are our entry point.

How did a tiny fishing community and a 'football doctor' get their hands on the Allsvenskan title? Were telekinetic powers involved?

Enter The 3rd Circle to find out.

This discussion has been split into two parts.

This episode is Part 1.

Part 2 will be available soon.
