Unique take with Smiles and Scares.

The depth of history and knowledge that these two find is astounding. Along with the great ghost stories and comedic banter I keep coming back just to see what shenanigans and haunts await me.

UnknownHereOH ,

A fun new podcast

Looking forward to more episodes to give me the creeps and keep me up all night. Paul does well but mostly I am listening for Ashley. Good mix of entertainment. Keep it up. More dad jokes from Paul and jokes in general. Could use some silly voices from both of you from time to time. Lets get afraid-ish!

Great New Show! Can’t wait for More!

I’ve enjoyed listening to the podcast so far, and I am excited for the next episode to drop! I love hearing the spooky stories, but the history behind the stories is even better. Plus, the dynamic between Paul & Ashley is fun to listen to, and I hope she continues to co-host.
