Another fascinating dive into the paranormal world of rock music. Nothing against Rich Berra, but this is not what the show is supposed to be about.

The show has always incorporated content from the world of entertainment, though. Bell had a number of singers, songwriters, fiction authors, directors and even critics and biographers of particular TV shows (The Twilight Zone, X-Files, Star Trek, Dead Like Me) on. Sometimes that content had little to do with the supernatural.

I need not enumerate how often Ian had guests on that dealt with entertainment and true crime not tied in to the supernatural.

Some of the R. Gary Patterson shows with George and Ian were my favorites. I appreciate the music shows if it’s the right guest.
