Summary
Host George Noory interviews Karen Dahlman, author of "The Spirits of Ouija," about her 53 years of using the board as a consciousness tool. Dahlman argues it is not a game but a device for connecting with spirits, guides, and higher selves. She explains that user intent and belief shape outcomes, warning against frivolous use while describing the board as a "cosmic phone" for exploring non-physical intelligence.
