Will Sharpe (The White Lotus) hosts a mind-bending real-life story of reincarnation and a spooky tale of family secrets. In 1950s England, milkman John Pollock makes a sensational prophecy: His dead daughters will be reborn. At first, even his own wife says he’s a crank. But then she gives birth to twin girls who have uncanny similarities to their sisters who died. Suddenly, the world sits up and takes notice. Pollock’s prophecy attracts the attention of a serious American scientist who crosses the Atlantic countless times to study the twins. And his conclusion is astonishing. So, what if death is only the beginning? Extrasensory goes in search of the two people who know the truth—the twins themselves. Extrasensory is an Apple Original podcast produced by Blanchard House.

I loved this podcast so much!! I’m not Asian, however I felt a great deal of empathy and it actually helped me heal a bit more in my own grief. Parts of your uncle’s story were parallel to my own and I found it profoundly moving. There are several different versions of me throughout my life that no knows about. I’m now the version that I always wanted to be and plan to be until the day I die, hopefully. I am now going to search for more podcasts that you have been involved with. If this is the only one I hope you do more in the future!! You’re both brilliant.
Really touching

I enjoyed all episodes, really heartfelt and full of some mystery and suspense. Lots about Asians in the mainstream. I feel like the podcast is really the incarnation of all the best of Galen’s work, a touching tribute.
Loved this pod cast

This was really well done. I love movies like Joy luck club and realizing there could have been more movies with full dimensional roles of people of all backgrounds, but simple minded men in Hollywood could not see their opportunity to show a world as it is with real people and complex lives worthy of being represented. No wonder there is so much racial fear today. This is so well done. I hope she makes more podcasts
I really wanted to listen to this

The story sounds really interesting and I was really looking forward to hearing it but the vocal fry is too much. I made it about halfway through the first episode. Oh well.
