247 - Your Stories of Messages from Passed Loved Ones Part 1 - Big Seance

   Building on the work of Friedrich Jürgenson and Marcello Bacci, Tony Rathman, along with wife Cherie, Ron Yacovetti, and Lourdes Gonzalez, has taken EVP and Direct Radio Voice to a brand new level. They've developed the technology and an exciting new method that they call Staticom! In this episode, Tony, who is also the founder and lead investigator for Entity Voices Paranormal Investigation (or EVPI), tells Patrick how it works, and even shares several fascinating audio samples of the method in action! Visit BigSeance.com/246 for more info! Other Listening Options Direct Download Link   In this episode: Intro :00 Do you have a special story of receiving communication or signs from a loved one who has crossed over? Patrick would love to hear from you! Check out episode 245 for the details, or just go to BigSeance.com/245. :48 Follow @BigSeance on Instagram and Facebook! 1:39 With 14 years of paranormal investigation experience, Tony Rathman is the founder and lead investigator for Entity Voices Paranormal Investigation (or EVPI), and he’s investigated hundreds of locations across the country, as well as overseas in Japan and the Philippines. He is also an EVP/ITC Specialist and along with his wife Cherie Rathman, Ron Yacovetti and Lourdes Gonzalez, they’ve developed an exciting new spirit communication technology known as Staticom. Based on the 40 years of work from Marcello Bacci, the Rathman’s continue to evolve and refine DRV (or direct radio voice) techniques for both longer, clearer and more understandable communication. They’ve since removed radio from the process, and so that’s why they’ve given this baby the new name — Staticom, which now communicates with only Broadband white noise. 2:03 Patrick shares with Tony some of his background with EVP and how Staticom reminds him of how excited he was in those early days of discovering EVP research! 3:42 What is Staticom? 7:08 Taking radio out of the picture! 12:43 Staticom is a Method and uses VST (Virtual Studio Technology). 13:57 How does Staticom compare to the Portal, Wonder Box or Echovox? 17:30 The Ovilus, Pizza, and Rainbows… 19:06 Remember the old, traditional, time consuming way of holding an EVP session? Our expectations (or maybe our attention spans) have changed! 20:31    Tony has always been fascinated by electronics, and built spirit boxes for years. 24:10 Marcello Bacci’s message through Patrick’s clock radio! 25:21 “I’ll say glad to meet ya!” — Marcello Bacci 27:11 Water, Rain, and Wind! 27:43 Communication Stations on the Other Side 29:13 How do spirits communicate through Staticom? 31:33 What’s it like on the Other Side? “It’s complicated.” 34:05 Staticom Example: “Energy of your mind, actually.” 38:10 Staticom Example: “Three hundred” 43:43 Interpreting Messages 46:21 Staticom Example: “And Tony Rathman can see.” 48:45 Staticom Example: “Extraterrestrials” 50:57 Final Thoughts from Tony Rathman 55:22 Outro 57:56 A special THANK YOU to Patreon supporters at the Super Paranerd and Parlor Guest level! 59:15   For more on Staticom and Tony Rathman EntityVoices.com YouTube Twitter: @EntityVoices Tony Rathman on Facebook         The Big Seance Podcast can be found right here, on Apple Podcasts, Google Podcasts, Pandora, Spotify, TuneIn Radio, Amazon Music, Audible, iHeart Radio, and YouTube.
