So it seems. Of course almost all of what is shown amid the usual 
Penn and Teller antics and outbursts is BULLSHIT, a child could see 
that. The small part that actually mentions real psi research just 
makes claims--that it doesn't work, the statistics were actually at 
chance level, the money was wasted--while providing zero evidence or 
argument for these claims. This is coarse lowbrow entertainment at 
the expense of people stupid enough to be taken in by corner-store 
"psychics," plus a few mandatory but empty slaps at serious work. Big 
deal. Try harder next time, and show your work.
