Ep248 - The God Machine

In this episode, the Hosts plunge face-first into the steam-hissing, ghost-babbling chaos that was John Murray Spear, a 19th-century spiritualist who claimed to be in communication with an ascended club of spirits. Spear wasn’t just talking to ghosts—he said he was communing with a celestial think tank of late geniuses called The Association of Electrizers, including Benjamin Franklin, among others. The goal of these souls? To build the God Machine—a mechanical messiah forged from gears, magnets, and pure, uncut lunacy. It’s American exceptionalism by way of séance. A story of divine revelation, technological hubris, and a robot brought to life! Citizens of the Milky Way, prepare yourselves for The God Machine!Music and Editing by Gage Hurley Final Thoughts Check out VaporVerse: https://www.youtube.com/@vaporversemusic++++Check out our Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/creepstreetpodcastInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/creepstreetpodcastYouTube: https://youtube.com/@creepstreetpodcast5062?feature=sharedTikTik: https://www.tiktok.com/@creepstreetpodcast #JohnMurraySpear #GodMachine #Spiritualism #19thCenturyWeird #OccultInventions #HauntedHistory #CreepStreetPodcast #DivineMechanics #ElectroMessiah #SpookyScience #AmericanSpiritualism #BizarreHistory #GildedAgeMadness #GhostsAndGears #CursedContraptions #SéanceCircuitry
