Jim and Dar dive into a hot topic this week. Are people who believe in the paranormal just gullible, or is that a lazy stereotype? Dar is on fire as she answers a recent article. They also explore strange stories, from a Bigfoot sighting in Arizona to a near-death experience involving blue-skinned beings. Plus, they chat haunted dolls, fairy photo hoaxes, psychic readings as self-care, and why academics are worried about the implications of alien disclosure. As always, it’s a smart, spirited mix of spooky stuff. Thanks for listening/watching and please share the show with family and friends!
