I was very pleased to be joined by Joel Guttormson, president of the Metro State Atheists in interviewing Joe Nickell! Joe Nickell is a renowned paranormal investigator, author, and senior Research Fellow for the Center For Inquiry. He joined us in studio early (you can tell how early by the state of my voice) Thursday morning to discuss paranormal investigation, the traps that skeptics fall into, the Shroud of Turin, and much more.

I'd also like to thank Sara Diaz, President of University of Colorado Denver Atheists for organizing Joe Nickell's speaking appearances at Colorado State University and Metro State College, without which this interview would not have been possible.

And on a personal note: I just interviewed Joe NIckell! This was very difficult for me, the only thing running through my head during this was, "Holy crap, that's Joe Nickell!", which made it very hard to concentrate! He's been interviewed by Oprah, Larry King, Maury Povich, and now, in what he will no doubt consider the pinnacle of his long and distinguished career, me. Joe, thanks so much for being on the show. It was a genuine thrill.

*** In the podcast i incorrectly referred to Sara Diaz as a member of Metro State Atheists. Sara is actually President of University of Colorado Denver Atheists. My apologies.
