  1. Mysterious Creatures

    Mysterious Creatures

    David Alderton joins Jim to explore the strange and enduring world of mysterious creatures, from unicorns and mermaids to Thunderbirds, dragons, werewolves, vampires and Sasquatch. Drawing from his book Mysterious Creatures: The Truth Behind the Legends, Alderton looks at how folklore, natural history, fear, misunderstanding and real animals may have combined to create some of the world’s most famous legends. This conversation digs into why these creatures still fascinate us, including the possible real-world roots behind ancient myths, the role of wolves and disease in werewolf lore, how vampires moved from superstition into pop culture, and why Bigfoot remains such a compelling mystery in an age when photos and video are harder than ever to trust. It is a fascinating look at the line between legend and reality, and why some stories refuse to die.

    PLUS ONLY: Werewolves, Vampires and Other Monsters! - The Paranormal Podcast REMASTERED No 15

    In this remastered classic, Jim revisits a conversation with the late (and great) Rosemary Ellen Guiley, one of the most respected voices in paranormal research and folklore. This episode was originally aired Nov 30, 2005. Rosemary talked about her research on Vampires, Werewolves, and Other Monsters. I suggest you check out all of Rosemary's work. What a legacy. Here is the book we talked about on this show at Amazon:  ⁠Encyclopedia of Vampires, Werewolves and Other Monsters⁠ - https://amzn.to/4uL8ZYd Her insight, warmth, and deep knowledge made her a favorite guest over the years (about 20 appearances, I believe) This conversation is a reminder of why. She is greatly missed. -- About The Paranormal Podcast REMASTERED Paranormal Podcast REMASTERED is a Plus Club exclusive series featuring hand-picked classic episodes from the archive, newly enhanced using today’s audio tools for clearer sound and a more polished listening experience.

  3. Journeys Into The Hereafter

    Journeys Into The Hereafter

    Darnella Ford joins us to discuss her extraordinary journeys into the hereafter and the out-of-body experiences that changed the course of her life. After years of meditation, breathwork, and studying ideas connected to consciousness, neuroscience, and quantum theory, Darnella says she discovered that the physical world is only one small part of a much larger reality. She shares how these experiences began, where they have taken her, and why she believes grief, love, and the soul’s survival are deeply connected. We also talk about her book The Next Breath: Life After Loss and Journeys into the Hereafter, inspired in part by the tragic loss of a close friend, and the profound encounters she says followed. From otherworldly landscapes and unusual beings to emotional reunions beyond the veil, Darnella offers a deeply personal look at what she has experienced beyond the body, while also reflecting on how those journeys can help us live with more purpose, peace, and openness right now.

    Evidence of the Extraordinary with Miguel Sancho

    Veteran television producer and investigative journalist Miguel Sancho joins Jim for a fascinating deep dive into the unexplained through the lens of mainstream journalism. Drawing on his years at ABC’s 20/20 and CBS’s 48 Hours, Sancho explains how a skeptic found himself confronting cases that resisted easy debunking. From UFO whistleblowers and military footage to near-death experiences and strange encounters captured on camera, the conversation explores where rigorous investigation ends and genuine mystery begins. Jim and Miguel also venture into bigger philosophical territory, discussing whether science itself is evolving toward ideas once dismissed as impossible. They tackle simulation theory, quantum physics, the afterlife, and the growing tension between skepticism and belief in modern culture. Along the way, Miguel shares some of the most compelling cases he’s examined for The Proof Is Out There and explains why the unexplained may deserve more serious attention than many in the mainstream are willing to admit.

    Did Astronauts See UAPs?

    What did the one of the first private astronauts really see during the dawn of commercial spaceflight? In this fascinating conversation, filmmaker Kevin Curran joins Jim to discuss Beyond Blue Sky: The Untold Story of the First Private Astronauts and the extraordinary experiences of astronaut Brian Binnie during the historic SpaceShipOne program. From high-risk experimental flights to mysterious glowing figures just days after a devastating crash, this is a story that blends aerospace history with one of the most compelling UFO encounters we’ve heard in years. Kevin shares the behind-the-scenes story of how the documentary came together, why Binnie chose to reveal his experience, and what other astronauts and test pilots may have encountered over the years. Along the way, Jim and Kevin explore the changing conversation around UAPs, disclosure, and what it all could mean for humanity’s place in the universe. Interestingly, this interview was recorded before the recent UAP file releases. During the conversation, Jim speculated that the Apollo astronauts may have witnessed things they never fully disclosed publicly, based on little breadcrumbs left over the years. Recent revelations appear to lend weight to those suspicions. No psychic powers required, Jim was just paying attention. A remarkable discussion that will leave you looking at the night sky a little differently. Beyond Blue Sky is currently available on Apple TV. Learn more about your ad choices.

    The Spiritual Magic of Dolls

    Najah Lightfoot joins us to explore the fascinating and often misunderstood world of dolls through the lens of her book The Spiritual Magic of Dolls. We dig into why dolls have such a powerful presence across cultures and history, and how they’ve gone from cherished companions to objects of fear in modern times. Najah shares her personal connection to dolls, how Hollywood has shaped our perceptions, and how can carry emotional and environmental imprints from the people and places they’ve been part of. It’s a conversation that challenges assumptions and opens up a much more nuanced view of these familiar figures. Along the way, we get into the big questions. Can dolls be haunted? Do they really move or communicate in subtle ways? And what does it actually mean to work with a doll in a magical or spiritual context? Whether you’re skeptical, curious, or already a believer, this episode delivers a compelling mix of folklore, personal experience, and practical insight that will leave you looking at dolls in a completely different way.
