Guests: CHAPS Wrap-up Show Update

August 16, 2011 By Chip Leave a Comment

This week we had only one guest be able to make it on, George Matthis. He is the Founder of INSPIR and the organizer of the Carolina Hauntings, Apparitions and Poltergeist Society AKA C.H.A.P.S. We started off nicely but then had a bit of technical difficulty, it is a live broadcast after all, that we had to overcome. We lost George after about 12 minutes into the show and ended up having to call into our own show to pull off the rest of it. A lot of good topics were discussed by your favorite hosts having to do with the legal issues that can arise during a paranormal investigation and we hope you get a chance to listen to the C.H.A.P.S. recording being played from 8-11-11. That episode is chalked full of good information from Roger Mcdorman and should be checked out if you’re an organizer of paranormal investigations, looking to start up a group or even just join in on an investigation some time.

In the last 10 minutes we did have another drop by our internet provided but Nicole put a nice little bow on the end of it and wrapped this puppy up for us all.

Check out next Mondays guest on the upcoming show calendar as we will be discussing The Lost City of Atlantis for the first time here on theMindCemetery.

Guests: CHAPS Wrap-up Show

August 15, 2011 By Chip Leave a Comment

This week we will hold another Carolina Hauntings Apparitions and Poltergeist Society round table. Besides Nicole and I we will be joined by George Matthis, Nikki Morock and Local Attorney Roger McDorman. We will discuss the Meet-up this last Thursday, which you can catch in our archives and on the player right on the main page. We hope to have some call-ins to ask Mr. McDorman some potential legal issues that my arise when it comes to paranormal investigations. Things like what can I do to protect me or my group when on site during an investigation? How can I copyright the video, audio and still pictures? Why should i have waivers of liability signed for all that participate? And many, many more questions that you don’t get to ask or even have the chance to be answered.

Whatever you ask this will NOT be considered official legal advice simply information for educational purposes. Want to get legal advice? Give Mr. Mcdorman a call and see what he can do for you.

Podcast from 6.20.2011: Guest Jonathan Kay Talks About Birthers, 9/11 Truthers, and the Psychology of Conspiracy Theorists

June 21, 2011 By Nicole Leave a Comment

We were delighted to talk with well-published author, Jonathan Kay, on a variety of conspiracy-theory related materials. Jonathan has been published in Newsweek, the New Yorker, Salon.com, Harper’s Magazine, the Los Angeles Times, the Weekly Standard, the National Interest, and the New York Times. He is a regular columnist for the Post and editor for Canadian-based National Post. The Canuck earned his law degree from Yale and was awarded Canada’s National Newspaper Award for Critical Writing. Oh yeah, he also knows a thing or two about conspiracy theories. He co-authored The Volunteer and wrote Among the Truthers: A Journey Through America’s Growing Conspiracist Underground.

During the show, Nicole referenced a piece that Jonathan recently did for the National Post on Harold Camping called Apocalypse Now.

You can find more information on Jonathan Kay at his website, AmongTheTruthers.com.

Podcast from 6.6.2011: Skeptic Bobby Nelson Talks About Harold Camping, Psychics, General Skepticism and Believers

June 8, 2011 By Nicole Leave a Comment

We had an AWESOME time with Bobby Nelson last time… well, I did! Chip’s world got rocked up a little bit. I <3 Skeptic month! In honor of skeptical month, pay homage to skeptical hippo :)

Anyway, Bobby is what I would consider to be a good guy skeptic. After last night’s discussion, I admire him almost as much as admire Penn after his skepticism letter. It was a fun show. Listen in below!

Bobby’s biggest complaint about the paranormal community is when people bastardize science into fitting their needs. He co-hosts Strange Frequencies Radio, which airs on Sundays from 3-6PM EST. He also has an awesome blog called Pork Rhine and he is the founder and contributor of Bent Spoon Magazine which is smart, insightful, and amazing. Check out Bent Spoon if you have a minute… it really appeals to believers and non-believers alike.

Bobby mentioned some videos on the show that I wanted to share, because it ended up being funny. James Randi exposed Uri Geller and Peter Popoff below:
