"She's So (Other)worldly" Part One: The Science of Spirits with Forensic Paranormal Scientist Carol Malone

Ghosts, ghouls, goblins, aliens, questionable Taylor Swift lyrics, and candy corn...

It’s that time of year again — October 2025, when brainrot meets toothrot on All Hallow’s Eve.

And this week, we’re kicking off a two-part special that’ll have you shivering in your skivvies.

Carol Malone, a forensic paranormal scientist, has been featured on the Travel Channel and consulted for television and film. Known as the godmother of forensic science in the paranormal world, Carol bridges the gap between laboratory precision and the unexplained.

She’s spent three decades applying forensic methodologies - from blood-spatter analysis to environmental baselining - to haunted locations, turning ghost stories into data points and cold cases into energy maps.  

She's no run-of-the-mill "paranormal investigator" or "ghost hunter" or "Jack Osbourne." (RIP Ozzy btw. We love your stuff).  

No no...she is a seeker of proof!  

And since she was friends with Ed and Lorraine Warren (see: The Conjuring or The Demonologist or The Amityville Horror or....The Conjuring 2...) and they let you into the inner circle, she's gotta be doing something right!  

In Part One, she speaks with Greg about:  

-The secret behind why energy and life after death are almost certainly real.

-How brain trauma can open new channels of perception.

-The science behind psychic ability and consciousness transfer.

-What those TV ghost hunters keep getting wrong (and why Carol’s real fieldwork since the late ’90s is nothing like it).

-One eerie detail about the human body that might just prove the soul IS REAL?!?

And did we mention it's scary?  

Happy Halloween, Loopers. This is the perfect spoooooky listen while you're rush delivering that costume piece from Amazon....
