Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

The Interview: Dr Paul Lee and Haunted Hospitality
Q: What spurred you on to do this project?
The idea came at an ASAP Conference when Dr. Paul realized someone should catalog haunted hospitality places across the UK.
The Interview: Paranormal Ivestigator Paul Cowmeadow
Q: What have you learned spiritually from the beginning of your journey till now?
I feel stronger now than ever. The more you do it, the more sensitive you become over the years, and you're so in tune with it. I have spirits popping in all the time, and I feel that I'm on a good journey.
The Interview: Paranormal Ivestigator Paul Cowmeadow
Q: What have you learned in terms of your craft as an investigator going from the beginning to how you investigate now?
I've developed a certain style of investigating that works for me now. I mean, you will go in very, on the same page rarely to get this, get that using this and that. But I think over the years, you grow your own techniques that work for you to successfully communicate with spirits, with purpose.
Interview With Paul Nugent from the Aetherius Society
Q: Why did you write the book and why should people read it?
To share my journey and the profound truths learned about spirituality and our connection to the universe.
Interview With Paul Nugent from the Aetherius Society
Q: What advice would you give to someone who spends a lot of time investigating things that defy our physical understanding?
Stay balanced and take it one step at a time. Listen to your conscience and make gradual changes.
