Originally posted by CEO View PostI heard Penn Jillette tell a story of how they trained an improv actress to be a psychic. I don't remember all the details but she read a book and interviewed some people to learn. They set her up to do twenty or so readings and she got great reviews from the clients. They came clean to the clients afterward but she was very much bothered by deceiving these people...which should be the reaction of any person with a shred of empathy.
That's awesome I can see the improv skillset and knowing how to read people being similar to psychic scammers.
It's why James Randi is one of my heroes, he is a stage magician who dedicated his life to exposing people who exploit other people with "real" magic.

That reminds me of some of my super religious family back in GA who wouldnt let their kids play with Magic 8 Balls because they thought they had demons in them... I wonder if fortune cookies would have been no bueno too...

I have asked her for lottery numbers but she said she cannot use her gift for self gain...Riiiiiight!
