Do you listen to many Internet radio shows? I have to admit, I didn’t before I got a show on ParaMania Radio.
However, now I find myself tuning in to ParaMania’s live shows when I can, and seeking out the On Demands when I can’t.
Talk about infotainment! The personification of it! It’s like chips for my ears and mind: Once I start listening, I can’t stop!
I’m so very grateful that Scott Morrow, who hosts the Fearless Ghosthunter on Saturday nights, encouraged me to apply for a show of my own. It’s greatly broadened my world. Not to mention introduced me to a whole new group of people (be they the hosts, their guests, or the people Fate sees fit to cross my path with who wind up as guests on my show) who share many of my same para-philosophies.
B.S. Zone
I note “same para-philosophies” because, before last year, I was feeling more and more isolated from the paranormal community.
Many of the people I met when I first launched HJ have since left. Many of the newer people on the scene are more about seeking fame and showcasing their “expertise” than adding any real substance to the field.
Oh, and drama? Good lord. It shouldn’t be that hard to get along and be cooperative with one another. What the hell is all the competition about? Ridiculous!
That’s what I liked about Scott. He called B.S. on a lot of the same stuff I did.
And as I first started listening to the shows on ParaMania Radio, I realized so many of the other hosts had also had their run ins with para posers, fame seekers, instigators, and possessive place hoarders. They just wanted a safe space to share ideas and meet with other like-minded folks.
That’s what ParaMania Radio strives to do: gather people together to exchange ideas without any pretense or phoniness.
Finally. I found a para tribe again!
What’s New, Boo?
I asked my fellow hosts what listeners can expect from their shows in 2018. What kind of guests they’ll have and topics they’ll be discussing. That sort of thing.
I didn’t exactly get any specifics from anyone, but many were interested in being included in a post about our home.
And I realized upon listening to some of their first shows for 2018 that many addressed this very issue: what they hope to accomplish in 2018.
Basically, all are striving for the same thing: to continue delivering a great informative and entertaining listening experience in 2018.
The ParaMania Radio Lineup
Here are all the shows offered by ParaManiaRadio.com.
I’ve listed them by day and included their times so you can mark when to listen live. But if you miss a show or want to catch up on past episodes, tune in via the On Demand section.
Some shows are just an hour long.
(I say “just” because time flies on ParaMania Radio. Seriously. It’s like there’s some kind of freaking time warp. It’s the top of the hour one second, then the next thing I know it’s over. That’s what happens when you’re having fun I guess.)
Others are two hours long.
And there’s quite the variety. Most are some sort of talk format, but not all are. Nor are they all about ghost hunting and paranormal investigating. There’s psychics and spirituality, astrology, even shows filled with music and a brand new comedy hour!
Hosts come from all walks of life, all parts of the America, and even from the U.K.!
Check out the show descriptions and see what appeals to you. Then tune in. (If you haven’t already.) I’m curious to see if you find them as addicting as I do!

Courtney Mroch is a globe-trotting restless spirit who’s both possessed by wanderlust and the spirit of adventure, and obsessed with true crime, horror, the paranormal, and weird days. Perhaps it has something to do with her genes? She is related to occult royalty, after all. Marie Laveau, the famous Voodoo practitioner of New Orleans, is one of her ancestors. (Yes, really! As explained here.) That could also explain her infatuation with skeletons.
Speaking of mystical, to learn how Courtney channeled her battle with cancer to conjure up this site, check out HJ’s Origin Story.
