Episode 36: Florida's Psychic Central // The Devil's Triangle

Patrice and Marleah drink Brambles and talk palmetto bugs, psychic gang fights, poor navigators, and Christopher Columbus’ alien sightings?!?!

Florida's Psychic Central //

Cassadaga Spiritual Camp in Central Florida was founded in the late 1800s by a traveling medium at the behest of his Native American spirit guide. Cassadaga has since been called the psychic capital of the world. It’s been criticized as a place of the devil and a place of frauds, but spiritualists at the camp still do thousands of readings each year.Inside Cassadaga, the Psychic Capital of the World Welcome to the Strange, Tiny Town of Cassadaga The Fox Sisters and the Rap on Spiritualism In Cassadaga, Dead Men (And Women) Tell Tales The Cassadaga Spiritualist Camp official web site  

The Devil's Triangle //

Since Christopher Columbus, strange and tragic events have happened in the area just off Florida’s coast. The Bermuda Triangle is a mythical section of the Atlantic Ocean roughly bounded by Miami, Bermuda and Puerto Rico where dozens of ships and airplanes have disappeared. Is it some strange magnetic phenomenon? Is it aliens? Or is it just bad driving?  The Mysterious Disappearance of Flight 19Bermuda TriangleElvis in Vegas / Bermuda Triangle Mysteries
