Paratopia Episode 36: Author/Reporter Jason Offutt

Author/Reporter Jason Offutt joins us on Paratopia for an entertaining, informative, and thorough discussion of a growing and misunderstood set of phenomena dubbed “Shadow JasonOffutt.jpgPeople.” Then, Jeff finally breaks his silence on the new direction his experiences have taken since a seemingly human man showed up in his home to talk about… well… we’re still bound to silence on the bulk of it, but what he can now share, he does. (This is an afterchat we tried having twice but were ultimately told not to.)

All of that and, honestly?–A WHOLE LOT MORE on this must-listen, game-changing Paratopia.

Many of his stories have been seen, and/or heard, on The History Channel, A&E, The Travel Channel, Unsolved Mysteries, Coast to Coast AM, and numerous other local television programs and specials. In July of 2004, his Ghosts of Gettysburg Series received the National Paranormal Award for “Best True Hauntings Collection” and “Best ‘Local Haunt’ Guidebook”.

Then we talk to Jeff Ritzmann’s friend, Jason, who is a Civil War reenactor in Gettysburg with his own ghost stories.

Paratopia Episode 22 - Getting Stoned with Rob Beck: the Geology of the Paranormal

Join us as Geologist Rob Beck lays the smackdown on the notions of mineral deposits as the reason for paranormal activity. Do quartz crystal deposits make you see ghosts in a particular area? How about those claims of limestone doing the same thing? These are often brought up by paranormal researchers as an adding factor to paranormal activity…but is there anything to it?

This is an informative couple of hours…sit back and get stoned with Jeff and Jeremy as we discuss geology with a real geologist…imagine that. Geology. Science. The Paranormal.
