Over the course of nearly half a century, Siegfried & Roy performed 30,000 shows for 50 million people and generated well over $1 billion in ticket sales. Although the German-born illusionists and pop culture icons were mega-famous, much about their private lives, eccentric public personae, and tragic final show remained shrouded in mystery…until now. Emmy®-winning filmmaker and journalist Steven Leckart, in his very first podcast, takes you behind the velvet curtain to reveal shocking moments, surprising details, and hidden truths about two men who were lionized by millions of fans, lampooned by the media, criticized by animal welfare advocates, and endlessly scrutinized by the public.

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.

Fascinating!

A lot of podcasts can't keep my interest over many episodes of covering the same event. This one is so compelling from the start and never lets up, revealing new pieces of information continuously. I've seen Siegfried and Roy several times and never once considered how dangerous it was to have these tigers just feet from the audience, held only by a leash that could never fully control them. Just an incredible story. Can't praise or recommend it enough!
I hate the production…

So highly produced and dramatized, I quit listening. It’s like I’m watching the 500th Netflix documentary, shot & produced the exact same as the previous 499. Just tell me the GD story!! If this is the future of podcasts, I don’t want it.
Interesting Show
