Sadly, we lost the great Ian Punnett last month. In part two of this week's show, we pay tribute to the great Coast To Coast AM host and re-air an interview with him from several years ago.
Rest In Peace, Ian. Our sympathies to Ian's family and the extended Coast To Coast AM family.
You can find his book we discussed on the interview, How to Pray When You're Pissed at God: Or Anyone Else for That Matter, at Amazon: https://amzn.to/3S56IpF

0:00.0 | Happy New Year, we'll talk about The Exorcist Effect and share our tribute to the late great Ian Punnet. |
0:07.2 | Up next on the paranormal part. This is the paranormal podcast with Jim Harold. |
0:27.0 | Welcome to the paranormal podcast. I'm Jim Harold. So glad to be with you once again. |
0:32.0 | And happy new year everybody and I hope it has been a great start to |
0:35.8 | the new year for you and that you had a blessed holiday season. You may hear a little |
0:40.9 | tinge in my voice. It was not the best holiday season for me and my family. |
0:45.5 | We all got sick. |
0:46.7 | I got sick the day before Christmas Eve, was sick through the whole break, the sickest I've |
0:50.9 | been in a long time, but I am on the mend. I'm probably about 90% right now. |
0:57.3 | And my family is still in the throes of illness. So, you know, nobody, you know, is in the hospital nothing like that so we |

1:36.1 | but I feel it is necessary. |

1:48.1 | that Ian knew that I was a big fan of his work I shared shared that with him. I interviewed him a couple of times and we actually talked on the phone over the summer and he was just so nice to me and we did not want to let this situation pass without giving Ian a big nod. |
2:07.1 | And also I'm going to replay in the second half of this show. |
2:10.1 | An interview I did with him almost 10 years ago back in 2014 and let the man speak for himself |
2:16.0 | because he had a lot of wisdom and he brought a lot of insight, a lot of entertainment, a lot of information to many, many millions over the years |
2:28.3 | in his work on Coast to Coast A.m. |
