Are we witnessing the first scientific proof of telepathy? Dr. Diane Powell is a Harvard-trained neuroscientist and psychiatrist who’s spent the last 20 years diving deep into a topic most scientists wouldn’t touch with a ten-foot pole: telepathy. And not just any kind — we’re talking about non-speaking autistic children who seem to communicate mind-to-mind. In this mind-bending episode, Diane joins the fellas to unpack her controversial research, the wild experiments that left her questioning everything, and why the scientific community has been so eager to ignore the data. Is this fringe pseudoscience, or are we looking at a hidden frontier of the human mind? If you thought savant syndrome was wild, wait until you hear this.
