  • One of the very few genuine hosts I’ve come across.

    A host that clearly has a genuine personal interest in these subjects and is therefore not afraid to offer his honest opinion and ask those sometimes awkward questions. When you listen to a host that seems to be motivated by finding truth rather than simply offering lip service to their guests, you have an authentic and interesting conversation worth listening to.

    Also, this podcast has absolutely the best outro song around. It is brilliant!

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Ep. 270: Astrology, Tarot, and Numerology: Courage Over Comfort
Q: What is it about the true crime stuff? Because you mentioned a stadium being sold out for a podcast, and, like, it's one of the most popular... What is it about true crime that has drawn everyone's fascination more than the last 10 or 15 years?
Christian attributes true crime's popularity mainly to shock value and curiosity about who committed a crime, what happened, where and why.
Ep. 270: Astrology, Tarot, and Numerology: Courage Over Comfort
Q: When they use it, has it actually been proven to be like it's helped them, it's been useful for them, they've been able to actually catch the people that have done this?
Christian says he cannot share case details for privacy reasons, but reports that Aurora's results have generally placed the eventual suspect among the top three of its ranked outputs.
Ep. 271: Beyond Disclosure
Q: What were some of the stuff that kind of got you interested in all of this?
Slevik traces his interest to two childhood experiences: seeing what he remembered as an unusual lightning phenomenon in the sky and seeing the Northern Lights. His mother's stories about a haunted house and his curiosity about ghost, Bigfoot, and UFO stories further fueled that interest.
Ep. 271: Beyond Disclosure
Q: So do you think that we're actually going to get to a point to where they talk more about things that we're not sure about, or is it just more like they're kind of just skimming just to say that they've released something?
Slevik is cautiously hopeful because officials have increasingly mentioned interdimensional entities, but says the released material has not been earth-shattering. He wants more detailed accounts and evidence.
Ep. 272: Alien Abductions in Denmark: The Chosen
Q: Do you happen to understand, like, or have your own opinion as to why they're choosing the certain people that they choose?
Daniel says he does not know why individuals are selected. He has wondered whether there is a particular reason, but thinks the choices may be random.
