Season 2 !!! I'm back. We chat about my personal health issues that took me away for a bit as well as a phenomenon only a small percentage of the population deals with -Aphantasia- and how I think my personal experience with it also melds into why I'm so fascinated with the Paranormal. The format of this episode is different... it was not planned or overly technical. Just me, the mic and a story. I spoke from my heart.
