Extrasensory
Will Sharpe (The White Lotus) hosts a mind-bending real-life story of reincarnation and a spooky tale of family secrets. In 1950s England, milkman John Pollock makes a sensational prophecy: His dead daughters will be reborn. At first, even his own wife says he’s a crank. But then she gives birth to twin girls who have uncanny similarities to their sisters who died. Suddenly, the world sits up and takes notice. Pollock’s prophecy attracts the attention of a serious American scientist who crosses the Atlantic countless times to study the twins. And his conclusion is astonishing. So, what if death is only the beginning? Extrasensory goes in search of the two people who know the truth—the twins themselves. Extrasensory is an Apple Original podcast produced by Blanchard House.

To not even address in later episodes the unexplainable parts of Johns predictions (how could he possibly correctly predict that he would have a NEW set of twins for example) was a very intentional story choice that ultimately results in this podcast as skippable. If you’re going to call anything evidence… how is that not the strongest piece of evidence?
Some people believe in reincarnation, Karen.

A lot of fuss over what ultimately seems to be a fairly normal if complicated guy having a spiritual belief that wasn’t seen as typical for someone of his background. This podcast turns a guy believing in reincarnation into a multi-part series like we’re all just supposed to find believing in reincarnation inherently freaky and sooooo spooky-ooky and WEIRD!!!1one, which honestly just comes off like everyone involved is incredibly closed-minded and xenophobic. Like, you know there are whole religions where people believe in that, right? Why the horror movie music sting like this guy having a vaguely non-traditional belief for someone of his background makes him automatically a creep? Most of the people involved in the story are dead, so can’t speak up for themselves now that some pasty white podcaster who probably thinks mayo is too spicy is framing them as creepy spooky Halloween freaks for simply believing in reincarnation and having some intense private family lore. Dumb.
