413: Mark Edward | True Confessions of a Fake Psychic

Mark Edward is a professional mentalist who specializes in magic of the mind -- including a convincing stint as a fake psychic. He's the author of Psychic Blues: Confessions of a Conflicted Medium.

What We Discuss with Mark Edward:
  • What is mentalism, and how does it use our desire for the outlandish to be true against us?
