Guest host James Faulk from the Neon Galactic podcast interviews anthropologist and author Jack Hunter, a scientist with expertise in the paranormal and its crucial but virtually unknown connection to nature and its power. They cover Hunter’s background in anthropology and his experiences with spiritual phenomena, including his studies of spirituality and religion as they intersect with contemporary human societies and cultures. They explore the connection between anomalous experiences and storytelling, as well as the importance of a phenomenological approach in assessing other people’s experience of reality. They also discuss Hunter’s book, “Spirits, Gods, and Magic: An Introduction to the Anthropology of the Supernatural.”
