Ghosts in Real Life vs TV and Movies, Our Favorite Kinds of Horror Movies, Ed and Lorraine Warren, Skepticism vs Cynicism, and What TV and the Movies Got Right and Wrong

Surviving Empathy

In this "hot cocoa and binkie" episode, Rebecca and I discuss our favorite kinds of horror and what we like in those subgenres. Then, we'll discuss the paranormal phenomenon in real life vs the movies and television, from Ghostbusters and The Conjuring movies, to our guilty pleasure in ghost hunting shows on TV, and whether or not we're getting an accurate read on the paranormal phenom, whether or not they're doing more harm than good, whether they're making people believe or disbeliever more or less, and what Hollywood and ghost shows are getting right and wrong. We'll talk about The Conjuring universe and the real life couple the franchise is based on, Ed and Lorraine Warren, renowned paranormal heroes of sorts in the field; their contribution to the field, and how they influenced how western culture sees the paranormal phenomenon. Then lastly, we'll talk about whether or not the paranormal in Hollywood and television pop culture is doing a service or disservice to the paranormal as a whole, skepticism vs cynicism, and what our take always are in general about growing up with ghosts and ghost stories in our public zeitgeist. You can listen to this podcast almost everywhere podcasts are streamed, and you may also come on by and say hi or continue the conversation with us personally @chefbrycomedy to get empath info and advice (we are not mental health professionals but empath and paranormal advocates who take our work seriously), and to find out more about the work we do in paranormal research, and as empaths and advocates for highly sensitive people. Our mission is to empower empaths and struggling folks, to gain a real and balanced understanding of paranormal phenomenon, to empower and strengthen regular people going through a difficult time, and we advocate for a more robust and sustainable life in difficult and uncertain times. We're here for you. Welcome to my empath tribe, and please enjoy!
