The Loopholes Podcast

This week, Kate goes out of her way to upset Ian and checks in with dead entertainer, Freddie Starr. We also chat to double-doctor and Telephone Calls From the Dead author, Dr Cal Cooper!

Loopholes is back! And we've brought you a brand new format! This week is a bumper crop as we chat about ghost marriage and meet Stefan Keeler, the Tarot reader!

This is it! The end of Loopholes Series 1 is marked by an Ian-shaped takeover as we enter the world of the Haunted Mansion. Are there real ghosts? Can a haunted house look rather pleasant? Will Ian finally admit some things are truly spooky...?

It's the penultimate episode of series one! What better way to celebrate than with a trip to the Isle of Man to visit Gef the talking Mongoose!

This week is a courtroom special as two of the greatest scientific minds of the 19th century go head to head in a spiritualist drama for the ages. It's also Kate's birthday, so Ian has to bite his tongue for once.

Today, we barrel back into Celebrity Séance Corner and pay a visit to Blanche Cooper. Not only did she chat with Egyptian Pharaohs, but the spirit of a man who was not...quite...dead. At all.

This week's episode is another comments special, where the discussion is entirely led by you! Kate and Ian tackle behaviour in the paranormal, Blair Witch, our own fizzy brains and the power of celebrity.

This week, Kate recounts the wondrous tale of Ken Webster's 'Vertical Plane' where communications across time were made possible via a BBC Micro Computer. Ian...isn't convinced.

This week takes a more solemn tone as Kate and Ian discuss the life of Thomas Lynn Bradford, the spiritualist who died with the hope of returning to a seance table.

The Belmez Faces. Supernatural phenomena or simply dodgy flooring? Kate and Ian see how a small Spanish town made world headlines with quite fantastical claims.
