The Paranormal Rundown

Ep. 054 - The voices in Vic's head

Ep 54 - Paranormal explorations of Drugs and Demonic Influence, Negative Near Death Experiences (NDEs), & the megalithic underground structure at Khara Khora.Welcome to episode 54 of The Paranormal Rundown! We have a small crew this time, just Vic, David, and Randy, but we have some wide ranging discussion! We consider the possibility of drugs and alcohol creating a vulnerability to Demonic Influence, Negative Near Death Experiences, AI and the components of Consciousness, and finish with a trip to Khara Khora, an ancient underground structure made with massive megalithic stones. Along the way we explore Evidence of an Afterlife, Purgatory and Limbo, Reincarnation and the Veil of Forgetfulness, Exploding Head Syndrome, the Animist View of Spirits of Objects, the Brain as a Receiver of Consciousness, the discoveries below the Giza Plateau, and much more. We even take on a detailed analysis of the voices Vic hears in his head at bedtime!We also would like to apologize for the delay getting the episode out this week. Vic was going to try to make this our first video episode, but alas, Adobe had other ideas. Needless to say, we have been besieged by a series of technical gremlins! We promise to do our very best to make it up to you next episode, where we will have return guest Sylvia Shults, what a treat!The poll on Spotify this week is about how many topics you think should Vic bring up when he spins the wheel. Right now we do 6, but David has a horrible memory and is trying to get it reduced to 4. So please, either go to the episode on Spotify and vote for your preference: 4, 5, or 6 topics per turn, or just email us your thoughts at feedback@paranormalrundown.comWe are await your decision!The Paranormal Rundown is a partnership between the hosts David Griffith, Father Michael Birdsong, Randy Cantrell, and Vic Hermanson.Be sure to check out our partner podcasts:You can find Vic at Trailer Trash Terrors, https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/vic-hermansonYou can find Father Birdsong at https://www.becomingahouseofprayer.com, as well as hear his new podcast Ending the Curse at:https://open.spotify.com/show/5yL7ZAN4wcRKnMPAlalVXW

Ep. 053 - Samuel Chong: The Thaioouba Prophecy

Ep 53 - Samuel Chong tells The Paranormal Rundown how the Thaioouba Prophecy explains aliens, abduction, space travel, and even Jesus Christ!Welcome to episode 53 of The Paranormal Rundown! This episode we have Samuel Chong with us, one of the most knowledgeable researchers of the Thaioouba Prophecy. Samuel is an attorney, translator, and motivational speaker, with a masters degree in financial analysis from the London School of Economics. But Samuel's true passion is the paranormal! After reading The Golden Planet: Thaioouba Prophecy, by Michel Desmarquet, he had to find the author and ask the many questions that reading the book raised. Needless to say, Samuel has dedicated an enormous amount of time thinking about and researching the concepts in this book. Our discussion starts out with Relationships with Bigfoot, but then leads into China's Snowman, Dimensional Portals, Alien Abduction, Reincarnation and Past Life Birthmarks, Planetary Spiritual Vibration, Angels, Sidis, Chakras and Auras, Astral Bodies, Meditation, Ghosts, A physical separation between Jesus and Christ, The Tomb of Jesus in Japan, and so much more. Literally too many topics to list, though I should mention the UFOs or UAPs that have crashed in both the US and China, and The Seven Masters that Rule the Galaxy. So get your thinking caps on, this one is Deep!You can find more information about Samuel Chong at https://chinasona.org/speakers/Information specific to the Thaioouba Prophecy is at https://chinasona.org/Thiaoouba/index.htmlIf you have any thoughts on the Thaioouba Prophecy, or have any other questions or strong opinions (we Love Strong Opinions), email us at feedback@paranormalrundown.com The Paranormal Rundown is a partnership between the hosts David Griffith, Father Michael Birdsong, Randy Cantrell, and Vic Hermanson.Be sure to check out our partner podcasts:You can find Vic at Trailer Trash Terrors, https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/vic-hermansonYou can find Father Birdsong at https://www.becomingahouseofprayer.com, as well as hear his new podcast Ending the Curse at:https://open.spotify.com/show/5yL7ZAN4wcRKnMPAlalVXW

We have covered a wide range of topics, such as Bigfoot Abductions, PSI, Cryptid Clowns, Consciousness & Reality, Remote Viewing, Machine Elves, Quantum Immortality, Lycanthropy, and so much more. However, this season has not been without it's challenges, but we have kept going, trying to bring you discussions that take you way down the rabbit hole.The biggest change this year has been in our co-hosts. Sadly, we lost JJ due to a serious lack of available time in his schedule. We have also had to soldier on without Fr. Mike several times, due to some serious health issues that we hope will be resolved over the next couple of months. But we have some great news, our repeat guest Randy has agreed to join the gang as a permanent member! This episode is all about welcoming him to the team, and then a little discussion about why we do this podcast. We think you will agree that Randy is a fantastic addition. He has some serious knowledge in science, medicine, biology, and more, and a true inquisitive love of the paranormal. As you will hear in the episode, just like every other member of the Rundown, he has his own beliefs, life experiences, and paranormal background. We love the fact that he is not a carbon copy of any of the rest of us, and we cant wait to see all of the unique ideas he brings to the show!Now we move on to 2026.

Additionally, we will be setting up polls on Spotify for each episode going forward, and asking for more feedback by email.
