Episode 4: Lily Dale, NY. A Summer Camp for Spiritualists
Description
In episode 4, we visit tiny hamlet Lily Dale in New York. Lily Dale is home to less than 300 people year round—and over FIFTY are registered mediums. Is there such a thing as a town occupation?
Every summer, over 20 THOUSAND people visit Lily Dale for spiritualism-related workshops, events, readings, and more.
Jen and Kristin discuss the foundations of Lily Dale and spiritualism itself, as well as how both have evolved to present day. Where do we go when we die? What happens? Is it the same for all of us?
Will there be chocolate, and warm socks, and good sex?
(Note from the hosts: If not, we are not going.)
Join us as we discuss old-timey seances, modern-day mystics, and what makes Lily Dale special.
