The interview touches on difficult philosophical conundrums posed regarding the various interpretations of precognition and psychokinesis. Braude and Mishlove also explore the ethical dilemmas associated with psychokinesis.

In so doing, she expresses her own interest in this case and in learning how to cultivate her own PK abilities. She focuses particularly on Ted Owens’ own story, as he described it himself to Jeffrey. She also raises questions concerning the safety and ethics of cultivating Psychokinesis.
