Episode XI The ghost and the skeptic

This week I talk to Melissa Lafave, who I've known for quite some time.  Some people you just have a connection with, Melissa is one of those people.  Melissa shares her miracle story about her son Zander.  Imagine finding out that your son had a major heart problem and was going to need surgery at a very young age, what would you do?  Then you notice something unusual happening, what does it mean?  Zander's story plays out through the words of Melissa and I think you will find this story inspiring! Also on the show is the site's creator and good friend Waye Braver.  While we are good friends, we're polar opposites when it comes to the paranormal.  Waye is a skeptic, he keeps me grounded, actually balanced is probably more accurate.  What I enjoy about talking to Waye is the fact that I can razz him a bit, and that he brings a totally different view than most of my guests.  Perhaps he represents the skeptic in some of you who listen to these podcasts.  Again, like all my guests, Waye is down to earth, genuine, and can laugh at himself.

Episode VI My radio co-host talks about her ghostly experiences

This interview was recorded a few months ago with Mindy Wills, my co-host on the radio.  Like many, Mindy had some things happen to her when she was younger that peaked her interest in the subject.  Anyone who knows Mindy realizes that she is genuine, humble, & easy going.  What causes someone to be so passionate about a certain subject?  Is it previous experiences?  Or is it just a curious nature in all of us?  Is there another reason?       

Episode IX Do you believe in angels? This week I talk to a woman who claims to work with angels.

When I was a young buck going to broadcasting school in Wausau, Wisconsin I had something unusaul happen to me.  I was on my way to work at a grocery store on the other side of town and it had been snowing a bit.  As usual I was cutting it close on time so I was in a bit of a hurry.  I came to the top of this hill and at the bottom of the hill, maybe some 50 to 70 yards away, was a traffic light.  It was red.  There was a station wagon parked at the light.  I touched my brakes and started to slide.  There were two lanes and I was in the left lane.  To my right was a snow grader, so cutting over into that lane was not an option.  I only had a few seconds to decide what I was going to do.  Then, in a moment of clarity, it all became quite clear what to do.  Speed up, get past the grader, cut the wheel at the last second to avoid the wagon, and then slide over into the right hand lane.  What?  You're kidding right?  But that is exactly what I did and I just missed the wagon by about an inch and came to almost a perfect stop in the right lane.  How did that happen?  There is no way the I should have avoided an accident, or at least plowed through the intersection.  At the time I didn't think much of it, but since many other similar incidents have occured it has made see things in a different light.  I know I got an "assist" from someone or something that day.  Was it a guardian angel?  Was it a family member who passed?  Over the years I have met some people who have claimed to work with angels.  Like many of you, at one time, I might have thought that these folks were exposed to a little too much paint thinner.  However over time when you talk with people and get to know them and witness events for yourself you start to see that most of them are just like anyone else.  My guest this week is Debbie Bergeon, she describes how she got involved with angel work and what has led her where she is now.  What do you think about this topic?

Episode VIII U.P. couple shares their unique experiences

When I was a kid I looked out my bedroom window one night and saw a craft on the horizon that I could not identify.  Years later my wife saw something dancing in the sky that no known craft could do.  Even my son saw something when he was a boy the seemed to split into two just over his head.  The list goes on.  Do all people experience something beyond our beliefs at somepoint in their life?  Is it just a certain few?  Do many more people see things and just try to ignore or dismiss the experience?  I don't know the answer for sure on those questions, but I do believe that all experiences are trying to teach or tell us something.  In this segment I talk to Mark and Jen, both of them strike me as humble and honest.  Their experiences are more involved than most.  Again, they did not seek me out... I sought them out.  They are not seeking financial gain or attention.  Judge for yourself.  Mark and Jen have truly learned how to tap into some unknown abilities!

Episode IV I talk with Deanna Carlson about her dad Jay who passed and may have made contact

This is a story that affects me on a personal level.  I was an outsider but became somewhat involved with Jay Buck and his family in 2004.  I praise all of his family for their courage and openess in sharing their stories with me about him, before and after he passed.  I had what I believe were several visits by Jay as well after he passed.  He, in my opinion, is an incredible spirit who has proven that we all go on after we pass.  Deanna and I have talked many times and it is always a joy when she shares something with me about her dad.  We all will lose someone sooner and later that we love.  I think most who have been through the experience will tell you that they sense the presence of their recently departed loved one.  Not everyone sees apparitions, or feels a cold spot.  Most everyone I talk to does have a dream of some sort with their lost loved one...so pay attention, someone might be trying to tell you something!
