Scott and Tim O’Hara discuss some recent parenting issues, including Tim’s daughter running into Mexico, and Scott being chased by a gargantuan wasp in Disneyland, barely escaping with his life. Psychic Medium and Good Witch, Patti Negri, then joins The DDG for part 1 of her interview, to discuss the spiritual realm and what you can do if something sinister is at work. Find Patti’s book here, Old World Magick for the Modern World, packed full of tips and tricks. The thought of entering a witch’s house was quite unsettling, giving Tim and I reservations if we would come out the same way we went in! Luckily, Patti was extremely gracious with her time and knowledge, and gave us valuable information regarding the topic of hauntings, and demonic possession, including her belief that Ouija Boards should not be sold in toy stores… Because they are, in fact, portals to the other side. What struck us both was Patti’s openness in interacting with the spiritual realm. Being Catholic, Tim and I were mostly taught to be wary of that, but Patti stressed you would know intuitively, if something was bad or good. This “gut feeling” would guide you in deciding whether or not the entity you were dealing with was harmful. Fortunately, neither one of us had a bad gut feeling while in Patti’s house! Patti does own a one hundred year old haunted doll named Belle, which bothered us significantly. Patti removed an evil spirit from the doll a while back, but explained a little girl still lived inside. This led Tim and I to discuss at the top of the show, why is it that no Barbie doll, Cabbage Patch Kid or My Buddy has ever been possessed (though My Buddy does look very similar to Chucky)? Check out the short film about the possessed doll on Amazon Prime. Or you can find it out Youtube with lesser quality. Also, Nightmare at 20,000 Feet, which is awesome and by the same author above, but a little harder to find online. This is the last ten minutes.
