Duke University, renowned for its academic excellence, has intriguing ties to paranormal studies, particularly in the realms of telepathy, clairvoyance, and other psychic phenomena. The episode delves into the history of parapsychology at Duke, highlighting the pioneering work of Professor Joseph Banks Rhine, who shifted the focus of research from life after death to extrasensory perception in the late 1920s. Rhine's experiments with Zener cards captured significant attention and funding, despite skepticism from the broader psychological community. The podcast explores how parapsychology evolved at Duke, including the establishment of a dedicated laboratory and the eventual creation of the Rhine Research Center. Join the hosts as they discuss the implications of these studies on our understanding of consciousness and the ongoing debate surrounding the scientific validity of psychic phenomena.
