A very fun episode, and you’ve given me some great shows to go check out.
One note on Derren Brown (not Darren, for those who might google him, because he is amazing), it’s funny (perhaps ironic) that Timm refers to Derren Brown immediately after his anecdote about being so impressed by a psychic medium. Along with being an amazing mentalist, Derren Brown (like many illusionists and magicians) is an unabashed skeptic about anyone who makes actual supernatural claims. Watch “Derren Brown Investigates”, and you’ll see that in one of the first episodes, Derren specifically debunks a psychic medium who relays messages from the dead, and outlines the “cold reading” method that they use to accomplish this.
Vanessa sounds like she is trying to do a ‘Roaring 20s’ accent really frequently. Has anyone else noticed this? I’m not sure how else to describe it.
It was a great episode, especially since I got a wonderful shout out from Cole and Vanessa! Timm Sharp is very funny, I need to catch up on things he has done over the years. Thanks again Vanessa and Cole for a great episode. Oh, and I really love those mice. 🙂
