The paranormal comedy podcast from two former MIB’s who asked too many questions. Kev in the John and Granville Moonwalker now take it in turns every other Thursday to present a real-life paranormal incident to the other for the questionable benefit of humanity. Each week, the co-host has no idea what’s coming up and the show is ended by deciding whether the events discussed, really were paranormal. #Probe

Did this place become haunted due to all the trauma? Or has this story gotten away with itself a little? There’s only one way to find out… PROBE!
