Ep. 42: Psi Friday with Mason: "Three Ships to Troy"

Psi-Friday with Mason returns this week with a more personal and spiritual turn. In this episode, Mason reflects on his friendship with the late Lydia Fish, a beloved folklore professor whose stories and presence left a lasting mark on everyone she encountered. He shares a story she once told just for him—Three Ships to Troy—and explores how that moment has stayed with him over the years. What unfolds is part memory, part tribute, and part spiritual download. Mason connects Lydia’s life and influence to deeper themes of storytelling, legacy, and the unseen threads that bind people across time. Woven into the episode is a journey back to ancient Greece, touching on the world of The Iliad by Homer—a story over 3,000 years old that still echoes today. Through it all, Mason brings together folklore, history, and something more intangible… the feeling that certain stories are meant to find us. A thoughtful, reflective episode for anyone interested in the deeper meaning behind the stories we carry—and the people who give them to us. #PsiFriday #MasonWinfield #LydiaFish #Folklore #Storytelling #SpiritualJourney #AncientGreece #TheIliad #BuffaloNY #Paranormal #SpiritWay

Ep. 41: Psi Friday with Mason: “A Good One” — Marv Levy, Route 77, and a Spooky Command

In this episode of Psi Friday with Mason, we follow a moment that stuck with him for years—a drive along Route 1-77 near Beckley, South Carolina, where everything changed in an instant. Mason connects the moment to something familiar to Buffalo fans—Marv Levy’s father's famous line, “Be a good one.” But this story goes deeper than a quote. It’s about listening, timing… and the kind of moment you don’t quite know how to explain. #PsiFriday #MasonWinfield #MarvLevy #Route177 #Beckley #ParanormalStories
