The Possessed Surgeon

Stories of superhuman strength feel like urban legends, but there are many real life examples, in fact The Hulk was inspired by one witnessed by it's creator. We have stories of a mother lifting a two tonne car for five minutes to save her child, a 72 year old man lifting three times the world record, and a woman taking on a polar bear to save a group of children. Is this phenomena paranormal, or can science explain it. We investigate. Join us at patreon.com/TQMpod for ad free eps, exclusives and much more. 

Voices from the beyond - EVPs - have fascinated us for a long time. Since it appeared that we captured something in our recent field trip, in this episode we look at the work of researcher Konstantĩn Raudive. We listen to some of his recordings, and then get surprised when we discover that he made some phone calls from beyond the grave himself. Is it real? Let's try to find out.    Join us at patreon.com/TQMpod for ad free eps, exclusives and much more.

There are lots of stories about psychic surgeons - often they are proven fakes who use chicken entrails to simulate bloody surgery, promising to cure diseases that mainstream doctors have been unable to treat effectively.  But there is one case that stands out, and may well be real. Could an uneducated manual worker in South America really be possessed by the spirit of a medical genius? He convinced the president  - and today we discover why.

When strange noises began bothering the folk of this small military town nobody could have predicted the havoc that would ensue. From UFO sightings to poltergeist-like activity, Warminster became one of the most visited paranormal destinations in the UK - but, was it real or did one man play a part in creating a flap about nothing? As always, the truth is likely somewhere in the middle - and this week we highlight the reality of this spooky period in British culture.  This podcast is always free to listen to, but isn't free to make - to help us make it a sustainable project, please consider being a Patreon at patreon.com/TQMpd - you'll get ad-free access, exclusive shows and membership of a great community.
