If you've ever wondered whether psychics can actually solve crimes or just make really wild guesses, our vintage episode of We Knew The Moon, the last before the launch os Season 3 of Switchblade Sisters Social Club next week, is just what the spirits ordered!

This is one of the first times Randa and Dee cover true crime cases together on a podcast, and the first of many times they end the episode depressed and wishing they had some light relief. It would be a few seasons yet before they discovered the People’s Pulse. 

What's under the magnifying glass this week:

Andre Daigle's Disappearance: The chilling case where psychic Rosemarie Kerr didn't just see the missing man's location but his murderer's face too! Spoiler: It's not who you expect... unless you're psychic, of course.

Catching a Serial Killer: James Koedatich's reign of terror might have continued if not for Nancy Weber's psychic profiling. It's like she had a crystal ball or, you know, really good intuition!

The Tragic Fate of Melanie Uribe: When psychic Etta Smith had a vision of the crime scene, she went from helping hand to handcuffs faster than you can say "premonition"! Find out how she proved her innocence and helped nab the real culprits.

The Soham Murders Revelation: Dive into the eerie and emotional case of Holly Wells and Jessica Chapman, where a psychic's visions brought both hope and controversy in a race against time.

This episode is packed with astonishing stories of psychics who've helped to crack cases that left others baffled. From uncanny predictions to downright spooky coincidences, you'll have to hear it to believe it... or disbelieve it. The choice is yours!

Are you ready to tune in to something supernatural, or at least super-natural-ish? Then you've got ESP (Excellent Show Perception).

This week, we're dusting off our crystal balls and this vintage episode of We Knew The Moon here Randa and Dee take a running jump into the mystical world of psychics. We'll explore the thin line between the sixth sense and nonsense.

What's in the cards for you in this episode:

Fake It Till You Make It?: We'll explore the art of cold reading and other sneaky techniques that make psychics seem like they know everything from your first pet's name to your secret love for pineapple pizza.

Derren Brown's Mind Games: How this master of illusion and mentalism has exposed psychic tricks with the flair of a stage magician and the scepticism of a scientist.

Earpiecegate: Dive into the controversy surrounding psychic Sally Morgan and her "spiritual" guidance. Was it divine intervention or just really good radio reception?

Astrologer-in-Chief: We can't forget Joan Quigley, the astrologer who had a hotline to the White House! Find out how her star charts and cosmic counsel found their way into the heart of American politics through Nancy and Ronald Reagan. 

So, tune in, open your third eye (or just your regular ones), and prepare for an episode that's equal parts eerie and hilarious. Join us as we attempt to contact the 'other side' and end up just getting a busy signal.

Today we release our latest episode on the harrowing details of the Tuskegee Syphilis Experiment. This episode explores the dark chapter of medical ethics and government betrayal that profoundly impacted the African American community and the history of public health in America.

In this gripping episode, we uncover:

The origins and objectives of the Tuskegee Study.

The experiences of the men who were unknowingly subjected to the experiment.

The long-term consequences and the fight for justice that ensued.

But that's not all! We are ending this episode with a segment of People’s Pulse. And this week, we have a very special surprise guest joining us—a huge treat especially for Dee, who had no idea we were even having a guest! Trust us, you won't want to miss this!

Tune in now and join us on this journey through one of the most shocking episodes in American history.

Today, we are releasing our latest podcast episode, on the murders at the Talwar house in Delhi. This one is a total head-scratcher. Who do you turn to as a suspect when the main suspect turns up dead?!

And as always, we wrap up the episode with our fan-favourite segment, People's Pulse. This week, we asked our listeners to "give advice, but it has to be toxic." The responses are legendary.

The staircase case involves Michael Peterson, an American novelist, and his wife Kathleen Peterson, who was found dead at the bottom of a staircase in their home in Durham, North Carolina, in 2001. Michael was accused of murdering Kathleen, but he claimed she fell down the stairs accidentally.

During the trial, the prosecution argued that Michael had beaten Kathleen to death, citing evidence such as blood spatter patterns and the presence of a fireplace poker. However, Michael's defence team presented an alternate theory, suggesting that Kathleen's death was an accident caused by her falling down the stairs.

One particularly intriguing aspect of the case is the "owl theory," which proposes that Kathleen may have been attacked by an owl near the staircase, leading to her fall. Supporters of this theory point to microscopic feathers and wood splinters found in Kathleen's hair as potential evidence of an owl attack.

In today’s episode, we interview Tiddy Smith, author of ‘Death by Talons: Did An Owl 'Murder' Kathleen Peterson?’ and try to answer that eternal question, ‘Was it that bastard owl?!’
