In honor of National Paranormal Day, we're having a sister pod take over our feed! This is The ODDentity Podcast, S7 Ep. 2: Mother Of the Paranormal: Catherine Crowe
Here's some show notes from our host!
In this episode, I introduce you to Catherine Crowe, known by many as the mother of the paranormal. Crowe is credited widely for helping to lay the groundwork for the founding of the Society for Psychical Research in 1882 and her book, The Night-Side of Nature was the first published work of its kind to consider scientific inquiry of paranormal phenomena. Crowe’s classification system for spirits and phenomena remains relevant to this day. The Night-Side of Nature can be perused for free on The Gutenberg Project website. I’ve popped the link into the show notes in case you want to check it out.

Oumuamua's back! After a brief update, we learn about a low, rumbling hum that exists in various places all over the world. Persistent, invasive, and at times nightmarish for those that can hear it. 2% of the population can- thousands of people across five continents. What causes it?

Our Sponsor this week is SPACE TIME COFFEE
By design, Space Time Coffee is a small scale, fresh, roasted to order, micro-roaster, offering delivery directly to your door. This means that all orders are roasted individually, by me, within 72 hours of shipping. Space Time Coffee guarantees all the SCA (Specialty Coffee Association) talking points and ethical practices, but isn't hell bent on flaunting them. The aim is to keep things straightforward, to consistently offer light, medium, and dark roast options, utilizing coffees intrinsically suited to the individual roast levels. These coffees will change periodically as fresh crop becomes available seasonally. Specialized, limited release offerings will also be available from time to time. What I value most is that our green coffees are ethically and equitably sourced and that you enjoy the final delicious results in your cup!
