We sit down with Brian Brushwood to discuss how he put together this most recent season of The World's Greatest Con, his podcast about incredible scams. This season is all about how two teenagers pulled off an incredible  hoax called Project Alpha, a con job and a publicity stunt, meant to improve scientific rigor and methodology when it comes to studying the possibility of the existence of psychic phenomena.<a href="http://shwood.com">Brian's Website</a><a href="https://twitter.com/shwood">Brian's Twitter</a><a href="https://www.newyorker.com/magazine/2021/05/31/why-did-so-many-victorians-try-to-speak-with-the-dead">New Yorker Article about Spiritualism</a><a href="https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/worlds-greatest-con/id1572307941">The World's Greatest Con </a><a href="https://www.davidmcraney.com/howmindschangehome">How Minds Change</a><a href="https://twitter.com/davidmcraney">David McRaney’s Twitter</a><a href="https://twitter.com/notsmartblog">YANSS Twitter</a><a href="https://twitter.com/notsmartblog">Show Notes</a><a href="https://davidmcraney.substack.com/">Newsletter</a><a href="https://www.patreon.com/youarenotsosmart">Patreon</a>
