The paranormal comedy podcast from two former MIB’s who asked too many questions. Kevin the Grey and Granville Moonwalker take it in turns each and every Thursday to present a real-life paranormal incident to the other in the hope of convincing humanity that the supernatural exists, or making each other laugh. Each week, the co-host has no idea what’s coming up and the show is ended by deciding whether the events discussed, really were paranormal. #Probe

#202 Betz Sphere - Space Balls
Thursday Dec 14, 2023
Thursday Dec 14, 2023
The extraterrestrial comedy podcast where we probe the Betz Sphere. This metallic bowling ball turned up in Fort George Forman Grill Island in Florida in 1974. Was this sphere responsible for the fire that may or may not have burnt down the Betz’s house? Regardless, the life of the Betz family was thrown in to chaos as the media got hold of this story and sooner or later, Dr J. Allen Hynek got involved. The Navy also took a special interest. Would such bodies be interested if something fishy wasn’t going on? Alongside that this episode ponders Pogs. Do you folks remember Pogs? After the first couple of minutes folks may want to skip to about 10 minutes 30 seconds in because oh my that was a tangent… All that and more on this week’s file.

#201 Fargo Encounter of 1948 - George Gorman’s Grill
Thursday Dec 07, 2023
Thursday Dec 07, 2023
The extraterrestrial comedy podcast where we probe George Gorman’s 1948 cook-off in the sky. Whilst grilling, George Gorman saw a 6-8 inch blinking thing but George was mibbed off when he landed. On that note, how did George Gorman land? George Gorman you see, may have passed out due to the speeds he was travelling which were no match for the speeds of the blinking thing. All that and more on this week’s file.

#200 Robert The Doll - World’s Most Haunted Doll
Thursday Nov 30, 2023
Thursday Nov 30, 2023
The extraterrestrial comedy podcast where we probe the most haunted doll in the world, the world famous Robert The Doll. This doll has about four origin stories and we cover the most likely as well as a few less verifiable. Regardless, this is one old and creepy looking thing that has allegedly messed with people for more than a century at time of recording in late 2023. It is said that Robert Eugene ‘Gene’ Otto always had an unhealthy relationship with Robert the Doll and indeed, the doll appears to have been cared for much like a human. Did Robert return that care? There have been hundreds of witnesses to the power of Robert and those powers continue to this day as less thoughtful, less considerate individuals visit Robert in his current residence and take photos of Robert, without asking for permission. Those same individuals can experience misery until they write to Robert The Doll, apologising. The episode covers theories to explain these incidents including a voodoo curse, demon, negative energy manifesting and pure simple bad luck. But is Robert really responsible for misery, injury, divorce and death? All that and more on this week’s file.

Thursday Nov 23, 2023
The extraterrestrial comedy podcast where we probe the life and times of Tim Cullen, an allegedly true psychic who saw events before they happened and can definitely prove this. It all started on April Fools Day 1978 and went on past 1998 and possibly in to the 2000’s. But did Tim really have a kidney bean removed from his arm aka hand aka pet? How long does it take to be seen in the Hospital Accident and Emergency department? All that and more on this weeks file.

#198 Adlet - Half human, half dog, not the halves you’d expect
Thursday Nov 16, 2023
Thursday Nov 16, 2023
The extraterrestrial comedy podcast where we probe the ancient First Nation legend of the Adlet. This cryptid is half-human, half-dog and totally crazy. The creature originates from a dalliance between a lady and a dog and from there, it doesn’t get much better. Are these monsters friend or foe? Are Adlet deadly fighters or are they too distractible because some doggy needs simply can’t be silenced? Another possibility is that these things are mixed up with the legend of the Dogman and that of the Werewolf. Or perhaps all these creatures are the same thing? Mr Moonwalker tries to explain this one away but he simply can’t deny the FACTS. Alongside that, we ponder as to whether Mr Moonwalker would be the big spoon or the little spoon (we all know the answer). Do wolves get their butts out? All that and more on this week’s file.

#197 Stede Bonnet - Ghost of a Gentleman Pirate
Thursday Nov 09, 2023
Thursday Nov 09, 2023
The extraterrestrial comedy podcast where we probe the life and times and afterlife and after times of legendary Gentleman Pirate, Stede Bonnet. Stede is kind of renowned in the 2020’s as having been a bit of a cr*p pirate, but was Stede really that bad? We’ll find out for in this episode we will probe all that Stede got up to from his early life to Stede’s marriage, possible difficulties that Stede had going on as outlined by North Carolina Maritime Museum archaeologist David Moore and that nagging feeling that Stede had. The call of the seas, if you will. Stede would answer that call and we have lots of records of the booty-looting Stede got up to from that point onwards. Along the way, as we’ve covered before, Stede got a little help from his friends. Well, an allegedly true friend, if you will (again). A black bearded friend, if you will, will, will (again, again). But when the heat would be on, the fleet would be gone for that friend had a cunning plan. Stede does not appear to have been party to that plan. But what happened to Stede after that? Stede held a grudge and revenge prospers no person it would appear because two shakes of a Stede later, Stede would be begging for his own life. There may also have been a cunning escape somewhere along the line and this one was the stuff of movies. Ultimately though, Stede would succumb to a grizzly death and be left to roam the world… All that and more on this week’s file.

#195 Ghost of Guy Fawkes Got Married?
Thursday Oct 26, 2023
Thursday Oct 26, 2023
The extraterrestrial comedy podcast where we remember remember the fifth of November, gunpowder treason and plot as we probe the little-known truth behind the well-known life of one Guy ‘Guido’ Fawkes. Those little-known facts are basically that Guy may have become a ghost and continued to haunt the United Kingdom for centuries after Guy’s passing. That’s not all that Guy’s ghost has been up to though… Before we get there, we uncover the already established details of Guy’s life from Guy’s involvement in a war that didn’t involve him to Guy’s involvement in a plot that did involve him, but that Guy certainly wasn’t the ringleader of (as many believe today). Guy is well-known to have been tortured at the Tower of London but was Guy tortured so badly that his spirit remains there today? If Guy’s spirit does remain tethered to the United Kingdom, is Guy searching for afterlife love? Has Guy found it, in London? Guy was a sexy guy, after all. A sexy Guy with a taste for Brandy. All that and more on this week’s file.

I’m sure he won’t be happy but we borrowed a tune from Lin-Manuel Miranda’s Hamilton called The Room Where It Happens, which was created and performed by the Original Broadway Cast of Hamilton (via Atlantic Records). That just felt right when discussing the plotting of the Gunpowder Plot. We finished the show with the ‘Staff Roll’ otherwise known as the Credits Theme from 1990-1992’s Super Mario World on the Super Nintendo, composed by Hero of Sound Kōji Kondō.

Alongside this, there are shenanigans as Mr Moonwalker gives Greybeard the choice that Moonwalker, never, had. All that and more on this weeks file.
