  • This week we met with Diane, the client from The Dead Files episode “Devil’s Triangle” (Season 11 Episode 9). We covered it in our episode called "An Ocean Full of Oysters" which aired July 4, 2024.

    She told us all about why she “called” the Dead Files, how the filming went, her impressions of Amy and Steve, and the aftermath. Diane also recounts her haunted childhood home, experiences with a ghost named Harry, and the support from Amy Allan to cleanse her tattoo shop.

    Plus, if you watch the video episode, you'll see her new puppy!

    So, grab your “oysters” and join us where… The Activity Continues.

  • This is the conversation we had before recording episode 124 which won’t be out until October 24, 2024,

    In this episode, we talk about more paranormal and spiritual things than we usually do. We talk about our readings with Zoey, dream interpretations, and Megan’s child talking to ghosts.

    But we also ramble on about the Minnesota State Fair, books and TV shows we’re watching, and storms that delayed this recording. Megan tells us about something in her childhood that we never knew before!

    So, grab your State Fair Food, and join us where… The Sideshow begins.

    Be sure to listen to the episode of The Activity Continues that followed this discussion. It’s number 124 and in it we discussed The Dead Files “Starvation Heights” (Season 1). It will be released on October 24, 2024.

    Content Warning:

    In this episode we mention kidnapping, being buried alive, dying by fire, dying by drowning, and child death (from an allergic reaction) and possible death in a car crash. Yes, this episode is a lighthearted romp! Actually, it is. These things are brought up because of dreams or past life regressions. So trigger warning for those who need it. Also, we swear a little bit.

    The Activity Continues, our main even show, is a paranormal podcast where soul friends, Amy, Megan, and AP chat about pets, true crime, ghost stories, haunts, dreams, and other paranormal stuff including the TV show, The Dead Files. We also sometimes interview interesting people, whether it be a paranormal professional, a Dead Files client, or a listener with spooky stories.

  • Chilly Chat No. 3

    This week we are discussing The Dead Files “Arctic Wrath” (Season 1 Episode 21) which aired July 19, 2012.

    This episode had a lot of similarities to Stephen King stories which two out of three of us really like. We also had fun roasting Dusty McGee.

    We talked about the overuse of the word “elderly”, what we read on the toilet before cell phones, and we imagined polar bears vacationing in the Hot Springs.

  • Chilly Chat No.2

    This week we are discussing The Dead Files “Dark Inheritance” (Season 3 Episode 14) which aired January 31, 2014.

    In this discussion we learned the difference between a physical medium and a mental medium. We commiserate with Amy Allan for the obvious pain she was in while going through the walk. We also learned the difference between a Mental Medium and a Physical Medium.

    We even had an import debate: Anti-Bean vs Bring on the Beans in chili.

    So, grab your hard coffee or shower beer, and join us where… The Activity Continues.

    Content Warning:

    In this episode we mention Botched abortion causing death, dismemberment, horrible mother/talk of child abuse, talk of suicide, and domestic abuse so trigger warning for those who need it. Also, we swear.

    The Activity Continues is a paranormal podcast where soul friends, Amy, Megan, and AP chat about pets, true crime, ghost stories, haunts, dreams, and other paranormal stuff including the TV show, The Dead Files. We also sometimes interview interesting people, whether it be a paranormal professional, a Dead Files client, or a listener with spooky stories.

    This episode was recorded on June 17, 2024 and released on August 1, 2024.

  • We have a shorty for you this week. Since we don’t usually talk politics, we didn’t have much to say this week (check the recording date if you don’t know what we’re referring to).

    We talked about what it means when your ears ring, we have an update on the Patio Saga, and somehow, we ended up talking about trees. Like, a lot. We also touch on our appreciation for the Irwin family and how Robert’s IG page is instant serotonin. We even have a little joke for you, thanks to our Patron Shannon.

    So, grab your beverage of choice, and join us where… The Sideshow begins.

    This is the conversation we had after recording episode 121. Be sure to listen to the episode of The Activity Continues that followed this discussion. We met with Zoey our friend and Patron and learned all about her abilities and gifts. She told some fun stories and we laughed a lot. That episode will be released on August 29, 2024.

    Content Warning:

    At the end of this episode we mention a child that is in need of some good vibes due to an accident. So trigger warning for those who need it. Also, we swear.

  • This week we’re all over the map. What a shock!

    Please vote for our show in the 19th Annual Podcast Awards (www.podcastawards.com)

    AP started (and ended) her rap career and has an important question for bedsheet manufacturers in the US. Megan gives us some reading recommendations and prepares for losing her right hand. And Amy tells of her GenX concert adventure on a school night.

    We also delve into a conversation about a certain nail company that we like, and it ends up sounding more and more like an ad. We promise, as of July 2, 2024, we do not have a deal with them.

    So, grab your canned espresso martini, and join us where… The Sideshow begins.

    Be sure to listen to the episode of The Activity Continues that followed this discussion.

    That one is our last Chilly Chat episode. In that we recapped The Dead Files episode called “Arctic Wrath” from Season 1. That episode will be out August 15, 2024.

  • This week we are dissecting The Dead Files “Devil’s Triangle” (Season 11 Episode 9) which aired September 5, 2019. This one confused us too since the three main entities are similar and we struggled with which ghost matched which man in history!

    We also talked about depression, demons, syphilis and selling your soul for riches.

    And what happened when a cop didn’t pay for his oysters.

    We also do a thought experiment on what it might be like to do a group project with Steve. (this is merely a joke we just expanded on, we don’t really think Steve would be a slacker in a group project—in case you’re listening, Steve). Megan also does her best-yet impersonation of Steve’s accent.

    So, leave your syphilis in the drawing room, grab your beverage of choice, and join us where… The Activity Continues.

  • Well, friends, turns out when we don’t meet every week we end up with a sh*t load to talk about, even though we text each other every day.

    We jumped right out the gate with a thread that started with student loans, and it ended with Dobby the house elf. We don't have the strength for Barb today and AP is banned from talking about leeches forever. Also we discuss dogs and unwanted Potty Pals.

    So, grab your favorite shower beer, and join us where… The Sideshow begins.

    Be sure to listen to the episode of The Activity Continues that followed this discussion. It was episode 119 and we discussed The Dead Files “Dark Inheritance” (Season 3 Episode 14) and our episode will be released on August 1, 2024.

  • This week we are discussing The Dead Files “Drained” (Season 8 Episode 12) which aired September 9, 2017. To say that this episode confused us is an understatement.

    We discussed peeing when you don't mean to, psychic vampires, horror films, and series of threes. We also learn what an organic witch is and we disagree on what the term “gravely” means.

    Content Warning:

    In this episode we mention suicide, murder (ax), and exorcisms, so warning for those who need it. Also, we swear.

    The Activity Continues is a paranormal podcast where soul friends, Amy, Megan, and AP chat about pets, true crime, ghost stories, haunts, dreams, and other paranormal stuff including the TV show, The Dead Files. We also sometimes interview interesting people, whether it be a paranormal professional, a Dead Files client, or a listener with spooky stories.

    So, grab your beverage of choice, and join us where… The Activity Continues.

    This episode was recorded on May 13, 2024 and released on June 20, 2024.

  • Despite the tech gremlins turning off AP’s camera, we managed to gab for almost an hour (don’t worry a lot was cut). Megan had to sit this one out, but Amy and AP had fun.

    We tackled the very important question how many lip balms is too many lip balms? Please help us get to the bottom of this on our socials. Amy reminisced about Lip Smackers from the 1970s.

    We spent a LOT of time talking about formatting documents for neuro-spicy brains. Spreadsheets might have come up. Quite a bit was cut from this discussion, but what was left in was done so in case it helps someone else not to feel alone. Brains are indeed weird. Heck, maybe this can be your sleep story this week.

    AP shared a great cocktail hack. Let us know if you try it!

    We discussed a couple of competition cooking shows we’re currently watching. There are spoilers if you’re not caught up with these.

    So, grab your favorite Lip Smackers flavor, mix up a cocktail, and join us where… The Sideshow begins.

    This is the conversation we had before recording episode 118. Be sure to listen to the episode of The Activity Continues that followed this discussion. We dissected The Dead Files “Never Alone” (Season 2 Episode 11 or 9) and that episode will be released on August 1, 2024.

    We didn’t find anything we thought deserved a content warning, but we still swore.

  • This week we are discussing The Dead Files “Evil Descends” (Season 9 Episode 8) which aired April 1, 2018. This time you get just the OGs as AP was out for a family adventure.

    We also talked about ADHD testing, sleep apnea tests, we learned what a Curandero is, and were reminded…sometimes what you think is a dream, is not a dream.

    We did talk for about 20 minutes before we officially started. To hear that come on over to our Patron or check our YouTube Channel.

    Content Warning:

    In this episode we discuss a brutal murder, more Native American atrocities, and extreme religion, so warning for those who need it.

    Also, while Amy, Cindy, and Steve's swears are bleeped on TV, ours are not.

    Summary:

    The hosts share their insights on the episode's plot, which includes the troubling experiences of Rebecca, the main subject, who is targeted by a shadow person and a demonic entity due to interactions with a Ouija board, primarily influenced by her boyfriend, Mike. They discuss various aspects of the case, including the impact of fracking near Rebecca's home, and historical context related to a deadly car crash and a brutal murder from the 1800s.

    The hosts express skepticism towards Mike's role and his assertions. Throughout, they blend humor, serious analysis, and concern for the well-being of the individuals involved. The episode ends on a note of empathy for Rebecca's ongoing struggle against the malevolent forces haunting her.

    Content Warning:

    This episode is a little heavy. There is talk of suicide/suicidal thoughts, depression, murder, and sexual assault. There’s mention of recent loss of spouse so trigger warning for those who need it. Also, we swear.

  • This week we depart from our usual format of interviews and recaps, opting instead for a freewheeling chat about various topics. We reflect on the season's activities including personal anecdotes. We also share updates on our experiences with past podcast guests and episodes, discussing the impact of these stories on both the subjects involved and ourselves.

    We also talked about our visit to Dustin Pari’s show 'Ghosts: Do You Believe?' and share thoughts on Ouija boards, among other paranormal topics. Throughout the episode, we engage with a mix of light-hearted banter and more serious reflections on the experiences shared with you!
