Really enjoyed speaking to @powell_adamj about @PubPsychic - fascinating new study of the popularity of ‘psychic nights’ at pubs. What draws people & what is it they get out of them? His previous research was with mediums https://t.co/kb5xBREcAi

Headed to Leeds for this exciting night of talking spirits and, perhaps, spirits talking.
