In this episode, the Paranormal Playback crew recaps Ghost Adventures Season 29, Episode 1: Poltergeist House. Join us for Part I of the live season at the infamous Poltergeist house in Simi Valley. They reflect on vibrating dolls, the use of real skeletons on set, and the eerie string of cast deaths tied to the film.
Between jokes about Zak Bagans’ fashion and production theatrics, the hosts also unpack the rumored fallout between Zak and Nick Groff, poke fun at new catchphrases, and question whether the “curse” is real or just Hollywood myth. It’s a snarky, spooky deep-dive into one of paranormal TV’s most iconic investigations.
Paranormal Playback is your weekly deep dive into spooky reality TV—ghost hunts, dramatic reenactments, and enough EVP to raise the dead. Hosted by creative directors Charlie Holley, Melanie Malone, & Lauren Sanders.

Boysober
Have you ever wondered what life might be like if you stopped worrying about being wanted, and focused on understanding what you actually want? That was the question Hope Woodard asked herself after a string of situationships inspired her to take a break from sex and dating. She went "boysober," a personal concept that sparked a global movement among women looking to prioritize themselves over men. Now, Hope is looking to expand the ways we explore our relationship to relationships. Taking a bold, unfiltered look into modern love, romance, and self-discovery, Boysober will dive into messy stories about dating, sex, love, friendship, and breaking generational patterns—all with humor, vulnerability, and a fresh perspective.
