January 11, 1999: Psychic Joseph DeLouise
Published 1 year, 10 months ago
Description
Art Bell welcomes Joseph DeLouise, named one of America's top ten psychics by American Woman magazine, for a wide-ranging conversation about prediction, belief, and the dangers of the occult. DeLouise, also a registered financial advisor, shares his forecast that the stock market will take a significant dip in 1999 but recover quickly as billions in sidelined money rush back in. He advises listeners to watch European markets over the next few years and look to Asia after that.
The conversation turns personal as DeLouise describes his decades of psychic work, including contributions to the Sharon Tate murder case and the Chappaquiddick tragedy. He explains his belief that anyone can develop predictive abilities by turning inward rather than intellectualizing, though he warns that tools like the Ouija board can become dangerously obsessive. Art shares his own unsettling experience with an ancient Ouija board left for him anonymously at a Las Vegas radio station, calling it one of the few things he refuses to discuss on air.
Callers raise topics from the government's plan to develop a fungal agent to eradicate marijuana worldwide to earthquakes rumbling beneath Mount Hood in Oregon. DeLouise and Art agree that tampering with any species put on Earth by nature or a creator risks unintended and potentially catastrophic consequences.
