Try Google Scholar, and papers citing Bem. In my article I mentioned and linked one apparent replication that turned out not to be one. I described the Wiseman paper's saga. Here's something claiming to be another failure to replicate, conducted at a UFOlogy event, and citing another failed replication (although maybe not a closely-matched one).

If you were hanging out at psychic blogs they might have been stretching the definition of replication to mean anything supporting time-traveling ESP (regardless of whether it uses the same procedures, gets the same results, was written after Bem, or was pre-registered), or they might have access to work that has not yet been put up on the internet in working paper or publication form.

ETA: The wikipedia article on Daryl Bem says that at least one of the Wiseman-registered studies has now replicated something from Bem, but doesn't identify the study or provide a source for the claim.
