MAKE HISTORY WITH US THIS SUMMER: https://demystifysci.com/demysticon-2025 Dr. Diane Hennacy Powell is an independent researcher into the telepathic ability of non-speaking autistic children, whose research was the basis of the wildly popular Telepathy Tapes (TT) podcast. She is a Johns Hopkins trained neuropsychiatrist, former Harvard faculty member, and award-winning therapist for autistic children. We host her for a conversation the real telepathy tapes - evidence that she has collected over decades of research into parapsychological phenomena in her autistic patients. Dr. Powell paints a more measured, mechanistic, and intriguing picture of the Telepathy Tapes story and offers us a way of encountering the possibility of extraordinary ability without having to revert to the tired frame of either fraud or magic.
