Sorry for diving out there I thought it HAD to be a JREFER!!

To paraphrase, it was the usual "I get the impression this was a sad death.......yeah he died of cancer.....the spirits tell me he died of cancer.........wow he did, how did you know that ?" kind of call until somebody from "oop north" came on.

Then it got funny......

Basically, the guy told him he was doing nothing that couldn't be explained by cold reading as demonstrated by Randi and that Randi is offering a million bucks to anyone who can demonstrate psychic power...

Boy, did this strike a nerve........You could almost feel him squirm behind the mike. He called Randi a "second rate stage magician", claimed cold reading is merely "a theory", and generally sounded pissed because Talk Sport had let a skeptic on. When asked why he charged money for his services he REALLY took the huff and claimed he "did not have to be poor to show his gifts".

Generally, I thought he sucked. A cold reader if ever there was one. And a not very good one at that.
