Dr. Russell Targ is a physicist and author who was a pioneer in the development of lasers, and co-founder of the Stanford Research Institute's investigation into psychic abilities in the 1970s and 1980s, which was sponsored by the CIA. He said his conversion from conventional science was "all about experience, rather than belief," as he began to investigate psychic functioning and found that there were effects that he could not explain.

Targ said that psychic abilities are natural to humans and can be used to improve lives. He requested the listeners to direct healing prayers for his daughter and explained amazing experiments that seemed to indicate that positive intentions had produced documented, beneficial medical effects.

He described his "25 years of playing psychic hide-and-seek" with the government's remote viewing program. Targ also delved into the amazing history of research on life after death. Through his years of study and experience, he has concluded that using psychic techniques can help each person discover who they truly are. The first hour featured news and Open Lines.
