Alta & Chad Dillard walk us through a timeline of their individual and shared high strangeness experiences, which run the gamut of paranormal manifestations. This is the perfect show for the week we launch Project Core! (originally aired: 10.07.2011)
This week, Jeff flies solo as Jeremy completes his move from NYC. Our guest? None other than parapsychologist, Loyd Auerbach! Loyd stops by to define what parapsychology actually is and discuss ghosts, hauntings, data collection & technology, psi, and PK. Loyd details an amazing case of two-way discussion with a "ghost," and the ghost’s perception of itself. This is an interview not to be missed! Oh, and there's chocolate too. That's right. Chocolate. Afterwards Jeff and Jeremy get ready to ...
Ever hear the cliche about the teenage girl who causes paranormal activity around her by repressing her rage? Meet Briana. She's living proof that this happens. The Jer flies solo on this one, interviewing her, babbling incoherently, and—ultimately giving up on being a solo act—making a call to a surprise second guest who has been haunted in a completely different, yet related, way. (originally aired 09.22.2011)

This episode is a lesson in contrasts. Which is deeper, more interesting, and speaks to a reality most can't fathom: ufologists narrating experiencer stories at a UFO conference, or the actual story of an experiencer in the audience? Kelly Johnson is an experiencer who traveled a very long distance to listen to professional ufologists at the 2011 Exeter UFO Festival in New Hampshire. Little did she know that what she would hear onstage wouldn't reflect the reality she lives. This is some of her ...
Lobo, from the Project Archivist podcast, joins us for a frank discussion about his extraordinary experiences. This could very well be the first case of a person with all outlier phenomena attached to them. Two words: just listen. (originally aired: 09.01.2011)
The pseudonymous “Roejen” from Project Archivist joins us to talk about his thoughts on the paranormal and share his own paranormal experiences. Then, Jeff & Jer tackle why certain aspects of how experiencers feel about their role as experiencers are hard to articulate and might be misinterpretations of the situation. Be sure to check out the Project Archivist podcast here: www.projectarchivist.com
Mirage Men author Mark Pilkington joins us to explore his book and some of the real life characters and situations that have shaped the mythos of ufology. Mark is also a crop circle maker, so we go down that road as well. This one is as straightforwardly sane as it is weird and fascinating! But first... Jeff tells of two days he'll not soon forget. Namely, the last two. His story is not paranormal but it is absolutely hysterical and, trust us, that will be enough. (originally aired 08.18.2011)...

Jason Offutt returns to talk about his disenchantment with the ghost hunting scene and explore some of the quirkier aspects of various phenomena, from hauntings to shadow people to black eyed kids. (originally aired: 08.11.2011)...
Frank Kimbler believes he may have found some alien wreckage debris in the sands of Roswell. And he may be right! Frank discusses the science involved in trying to figure out the origin of this mysterious metal. But first, Jeff & Jer make a huge announcement about their new call-in show, Paratopia Live! Sundays will never be the same! (originally aired: 08.04.2011)
Rachel Baker of the ghost research outfit MRIPA returns to discuss her work and her purpose in the ghost biz, but what she reveals has very little to do with ghosts and ultimately leads into the type of rare and pivotal episode that has come to define Paratopia. Learn more about Rachel at www.mripa.net (originally aired: 07.28.2011)
Jeff & Jer explore the often overlooked details of their experiences, asking new questions, starting with: What does it mean to be an adult if that is stripped away and one feels like a child in the face of the enigma? (originally aired 07.21.2011)
Marian Apparitions Are Real! author, Kevin Cook, joins The Jeff & The Jer to talk about mass visions of the Virgin Mary from around the world. To follow along this episode with the photos we'll be talking about, and to learn more about Kevin and his book, you’re out of luck. I cannot find any functioning homepages for Kevin in 2024. But you can still get his book on Amazon and elsewhere. (originally aired: 07.14.2011)
Originally an archive-only special, here Jeremy Vaeni explains the situation surrounding Phil Imbrogno being discovered as a liar where his education and military record were concerned--including what Phil Imbrogno wrote to him that made Jeremy initially hold back. (originally created: 06.15.2013)
The Jeff & The Jer recorded a full episode with Lee Townsend on Wednesday. The first half dealt with the recent allegations that Phil Imbrogno forged his education credentials. Anything we had to say was purely speculative because Phil's public response has been to leave the paranormal field and go silent. That's publicly. But a funny thing happened on the way to Thursday: Phil personally emailed Jeremy his side of the story out of the blue and so the first half of the show had to be scrappe...
The Path of Energy author, Dr. Synthia Andrews, joins Jer to clearly define chakras, the aura, and other ethereal energy systems that are a part of us and yet unproven by science. What are these things? How do they work? Are they interconnected? How do we know anything about scientifically unproven phenomena? That, plus the problem of evil and the question of aliens are up for discussion in this illuminating talk. Then, Jeff & Jer explore some of Jeff's ''alien'' encounters with fresh questi...
Occult expert Donald Tyson talks about his book, The Dream World of H.P. Lovecraft, which launches us into a fascinating conversation on magick, sigils, the power of intention, and the structure of things unseen. (originally aired: 06.23.2011)
A discussion about Jeff's unique hypothesis on the Gulf Breeze sightings leads into theorizing about what this phenomena is the likes of which you've never heard before. This is two hours of the the deep stuff you simply cannot find on another show. (originally aired: 06.16.2011)
Is computer tech all about us yearning for the oneness whom we are and are repressing? Are Jeff Ritzmann and Jeremy Vaeni two old farts screaming at kids to get off their lawn? Picking up on themes in Paratopia Episode 120: Bill Birnes - Everything Asked, The Jeff & The Jer go back and forth on computer tech and the state of a future being dictated to us by rich men living in fear of death. Subjects include nanobots in the bloodstream (yes, kids, people were talking about it a decade before ...
UFO Hunters star & UFO Magazine publisher William J. Birnes joins Jeremy to discuss what he really thinks of Ancient Aliens, what he really thinks of Phil Corso, what Charles Halt told him about Jim Penniston's binary code, what he really thinks of Bentwaters, and if we really did change anything with our exposés on Jacobs/Hopkins. He also answers the question most nagging Paratopians for years: Why did he tell that abductee guy he was a hybrid alien on the most infamous episode of UFO Hunte...
Ted Roe returns to update us on NARCAP's alliance with the Chilean government, tell us of his studies at a secret spot in Arizona where earthlights are viewed regularly, and weigh in on the growing debate over dolphin sentience. Did you read that description correctly? Yes you did. Wipe your eyes and unclog your ears--this one is a wild, looping voyage on the high seas of strangeness! (originally aired: 06.02.2011)
We say goodbye to Lisa Ritzmann who passed away December 19th, 2023. Lisa was and is a beautiful soul. And then we carry on.
Just in time for the Rapture, The Jeff and The Jer explore the cult mentality with survivor Taylor Galloway. But first, it's a marathon intro hour covering everything from the topic at hand to reactions to last week's episode about Jim Penniston's outrageous new claims. This one's different but it's still serious and still fun. Some things never change! (originally aired: 05.26.2011)
The Jeff & The Jer dissect a brilliant episode of another podcast, The Joiner Report, where host Angelia Joiner (may she rest in peace) puts enough great questions to Rendlesham Forest Incident witness Jim Penniston that his testimony implodes. Though often hailed as one of the greatest UFO cases of all time, Jeff & Jer have to ask: Is the Bentwaters/Rendlesham Forest Incident dead? If so, who killed it and why? They lay out possible scenarios, but ultimately the listener must decide wha...
Legendary author and experiencer, Whitley Strieber, joins Jeff, Jer, and guest co-host Lee Townsend to discuss the new edition of 'his book, The Key. A riveting read, The Key contains perhaps the most important conversation about reality and the human future ever had. We still don't know who the mysterious man who barged into Strieber's hotel room back in 1998, whom Whitley calls, "The Master of The Key," is. But in this episode, we do learn a lot more about Strieber, a multi-dimensional man in ...
Binnall of America host, Tim Binnall, joins Jeff & Jer in the first half of the show to talk about his hypnosis session, his disillusionment with the 9/11 Truth Movement, and the possibility that there really is a coordinated desensitization to the alien presence on Earth. Then, in the second half of the show, Jeff and Jer explore two experiences Jeff hadn't the words to describe... until now. (originally aired: 05.05.2011)
Jeff & Jer take questions from the listeners. And Jeff says one of the smartest things about real disclosure Jeremy has ever heard. (originally aired 04.28.2011)
What started as a business-like 15 minute pitch for Paratopians to help finance Dennis McKenna's memoirs turned into its own 90+ minute memoir with a raw, emotional end chat about his brother Terence's final days and beyond. Jer is nowhere to be found and Jeff mostly listens as Dennis takes us back to his days of journeying through the Amazon and the mind with Terence McKenna. (originally aired: 04.26.2011)
It's that time again--Time for a Halloween special on Jeff Ritzmann's favoritest of holidays, Halloween! This one has been a long time coming. First, we dissect a message to us all from a highly strange being Jeff had chats with for a while, with fresh eyes. Then, we will learn the 2 revelations he refused to make public at the time and why. Finally, we get a visit from Binnall of America's Tim Binnall and have a fantastic discussion with him about his interest and evolution in a variety of para...
What do ghosts, witches, Bigfoot, bad luck, giant animals, UFOs, orbs, zombies, cults, and crime have in common? According to our guest, and Dark Woods author, Chris Balzano, they all reside in the Freetown State Forest. And according to the Wampanoag Tribe, they are intricately connected to tiny, magical monster people called ''Pukwudgies.'' Christoper Balzano is a paranormal investigator and folklorist who doesn't just collect stories but is given actual cases to investigate from the police. W...
