Returning guest J.M. DeBord, well known for work with dreams, joins us to discuss a groundbreaking new project: Channeled Messages of Hope, an audiobook and podcast series that claims to feature communications from iconic historical figures on the other side. Through a trance medium, voices from beyond such as Albert Einstein, Nikola Tesla, Teddy Roosevelt, and even St. Francis of Assisi offer insight into our current global challenges, technology, and humanity’s spiritual evolution. J.M. explains how this extraordinary collaboration began, and the intense behind-the-scenes effort required to bring these messages to life in audio form. We also hear actual audio clips from the spirit channeling sessions. Whether or not you're a believer, this episode will provoke thought about the nature of consciousness, the power of intention, and what wisdom our ancestors may still have to share.

Ghosts aren’t just relics of Victorian fiction—Dr. Kate Cherrell reveals how 19th-century spiritualists shaped the ghost-hunting traditions we still follow today. With a PhD in female mediumship and a lifelong fascination with the paranormal, Kate shares both her scholarly insights and personal experiences, from haunted homes to unsettling physical encounters. She explains how Victorian séances ranged from refined tea-time table-tipping to wild, theatrical performances involving everything from spirit gifts to (allegedly) teleporting mediums. If you thought modern ghost hunting was dramatic, wait until you hear about the woman who "materialized" on a séance table as a surprise gift. Jim and Dr. Cherrell also dive into how modern paranormal investigations differ—and eerily resemble—those of the past. They explore consciousness as a ghost-hunting tool, tales of time slips in Liverpool, and why ghosts may not be just spirits of the dead but something much stranger. You’ll also hear about Kate’s eerie run-in with a very hands-on spirit and how those experiences inspired her gothic novel Begotten. Whether you're into psychic history, hands-on investigation tips, or jaw-dropping séance stories, this episode will leave you questioning the very nature of reality.

Most people think of tarot as a tool for quick readings or fun at parties, but Lon Milo DuQuette argues there's a far deeper spiritual and metaphysical framework at play. In this fascinating conversation, Lon shares how the tarot operates on principles of mathematical and mystical perfection, rooted in the Kabbalah and informed by archetypal consciousness. He explains how the cards can serve not only as divination tools, but as a symbolic map of the very structure of reality itself—one that mirrors space, time, and human awareness. We also explore the rich esoteric history of the tarot, its origins in European card games, its transformation through the lens of human consciousness, and its relationship with astrology and ceremonial magic. Lon reflects on his personal favorite cards, the Fool and Justice, and how they embody the paradox of existence and non-existence. Whether you're a casual tarot user or a deep seeker of its hidden meanings, this conversation provides a compelling case for treating tarot as a guide for personal and spiritual architecture.

Kelly Chase, one of the most insightful voices in the UFO and UAP space, joined me for a fascinating conversation about her latest documentary series, Cosmosis: UFOs and a New Reality. Kelly has been everywhere lately including News Nation. Kelly through her UFO Rabbit Hole podcast and book has been pushing the UAP conversation forward. We talked about how the UFO discussion has shifted, with many trying to keep it strictly within a scientific framework while brushing aside the historical and spiritual aspects. She made a strong case that ignoring those elements limits our understanding, especially when they’ve been part of the phenomenon for centuries. While credibility is important, she believes we shouldn’t dismiss the more mysterious or “woo” aspects just because they don’t fit neatly into traditional narratives. We also got into recent controversies, like the backlash against experiencers and the government’s murky handling of the recent “drone” situation. Kelly pointed out how much of this feels like an attempt to control the narrative rather than provide real answers. That’s part of what makes Cosmosis stand out—it’s not just another documentary covering the basics, but one that challenges viewers to think deeper about what these encounters could mean. She also shared that The UFO Rabbit Hole is evolving into the Cosmosis podcast, giving her an even bigger platform to explore these ideas. It was a great discussion, and if you're looking for fresh perspectives on the UFO topic, Kelly’s work is essential!

Our guest is Loyd Auerbach, aka "Professor Paranormal," who returns to The Paranormal Podcast where he was our very first guest! With decades of ghost-hunting expertise under his belt, Loyd drops mind-bending knowledge about why ghosts always seem to have their clothes on, and why those TV shows that only hunt spirits at midnight might be barking up the wrong haunted tree. From spirits who can't let go of their favorite hangout spots to the fascinating science behind near-death experiences, Loyd busts myths left and right while serving up seriously spooky food for thought. He even tackles head-scratchers like why some ghosts follow their loved ones to new homes while others stay put in their old haunts. Join us for a wild ride through the latest theories about consciousness, time, and what really happens when we shuffle off this mortal coil!
