Talking to the Dead
Jason Suran wants you to know he can\u2019t talk to the dead. Then he will convince you that he can. In Suran\u2019s show, The Other Side, he recreates a theatrical type of s\xe9ance that departed American culture almost a century ago. And he believes that experiencing the way people tried to contact the departed can reveal a lot about our deepest desires and fears. Plus David Jaher, author of The Witch of Lime Street, discusses how s\xe9ances became all the rage in America until Harry Houdini made it his life\u2019s mission to debunk them.\nLearn more about your ad choices.
