“Three Astronauts, One Broken Alarm" Live Video Q&A with Iya (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Ask an expert how they did something, and the answer usually arrives the way they were taught to give it.We were looking for a way to pass expertise from experienced astronauts to the crews of long-duration missions. The astronauts we worked with came from Germany, France and Italy. One had trained on the Shuttle, one on Soyuz, and one had lived on Mir.… Read more
🚀 SPACE PSYCHOLOGIST TO INNER SPACE EXPLORERS: LIVE VIDEO Meet-up on Substack | 24 Sep 17:00 UK (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Three times this month, without any of us planning it, we arrived at the same place from three different directions.A man who has won precognition at the Psi Games two years running was asked what had changed in him, and he reached for the word remembering rather than learning. An anaesthetist with the best results in his hospital was thought arrogant for years, because he could never explain how he did it. A pilot who landed fighter jets on the moving deck of an aircraft carrier was asked how a

“How did your landing go?”I asked Ryan Graves that in New Hampshire, in the middle of a conversation about something else entirely.

Two weeks before David Tran and I recorded anything, I told him the Psi Games had felt like the X-Men.He laughed. He had used the same words to someone else a few days before, and said a team was more or less what they were assembling.We had both come back from Charlotte a fortnight earlier and were still immersed in it. That call was supposed to be admin. Naturally so, as it was not recorded, it turned into the deeper of the two conversations, and almost none of it made the episode. I wish to s
David Tran: 2 Psi Games Wins in Precognition (opens the original)
Read excerpt
David Tran won precognition and psychokinesis at the 2025 Psi Games, then went back and won precognition again in 2026. He comes to it from data analytics, and he spent the year between the two competitions measuring what actually changed. We talk about training rather than talent, what he noticed when his brainwaves flattened during an event, and why he believes this is repeatable rather than rare.This is the first episode of Space Psychologist Listening, conversations with people whose knowing
