The Chocolate is Too Damn High – The Paranormal Report 242

This week on The Paranormal Report, Jim and Dar dig into some new UFO claims involving what may be lurking beneath the ocean and a battle that may have occurred. Could AI actually become conscious, and if so, would shutting it down cross an ethical line? A troubling situation overseas has Jim wondering if another dangerous outbreak could be on the horizon, especially after an eerie psychic prediction surfaced at an interesting time. Plus, a decades-old scientific prediction gave humanity a very specific expiration date, while the unexplained destruction of a secretive satellite has Jim considering what might really be happening above our heads. Dar also shares some surprisingly sensible advice for anyone who thinks their home may be haunted, and a legendary lake monster now has a $60,000 bounty on its head. Throw in moon-landing conspiracies, Halloween candy controversy, and plenty of Jim and Dar banter on this week’s episode!
