(Para)Normal Podcast

Investigation equipment can be expensive, and, over the years, we have spent a lot of money on various types of gear.  Some were worth the money.  Some...not so much.  Join us as we talk about the best and worst paranormal gear, what you need and don't need, and the tricks we've learned to avoid overpaying for our equipment.

Paranormal evidence has always had issues with credibility.  As technology expands, it is becoming easier to fake paranormal evidence, and harder to ascertain what is real and what is not.  What can we all do stay ahead of the those who would use this technology to fake evidence?  In what ways could AI potentially assist investigations?  Do we need to change how we view paranormal content?  We dive into these questions, and more, in today's episode.

In our first installment of the new year, we take some time to answer questions that we have received during events through social media.  How long does it take to investigate a location?  How often do we collaborate with other paranormal groups?  Why don't we livestream?  We answer these questions, and more, while also talking about what we have coming up over the next year.

On rare occasions, we are the first people to investigate a location that is thought to be haunted.  As exciting as it can be, the lack of previous evidence, experiences, and information creates some unique challenges.  In today's episode, we discuss how being the first people to investigate a location changes our strategy, before, during, and after the investigation.  We will also dive deeper into our most recent investigation, and the amazing experiences that we had at the Ganz House.

What is a "ghost hunter?"  What is a "paranormal investigator?"  These terms are often used in a way that makes them sound interchangeable, but there is a difference.  Today, we examine these two terms, what they mean, and if the time has come to evolve our definitions.  We also discuss a very interesting evidence reveal we have coming up, and how you can join us from wherever you are located.
