Frequently Asked Questions

In 2024, it will be my fifth year investigating haunted locations.  I have been on over 100 investigations.  I have a year and half experience podcasting.  I am a part of three podcast shows/series.  I have also guest hosted on other paranormal podcast shows and appeared on some paranormal podcast panels.

You can see the podcast shows on various platforms such as ETalk.TV, YouTube, Rumble, Spotify, iHeart Podcasting, Google Podcasting and Pocket Casts.  I am branching out to new platforms to make the shows more accessible as much as I can.

My goal on my podcast shows is to help promote local teams and locations.  I also have the goal of promoting those in the paranormal field whom I feel are undiscovered or not as known as possible.  My biggest goal is to help spread awareness of the paranormal field and dispel some of the misconceptions of the paranormal and paranormal investigations.  My intention is to help others gain a better understanding of what the paranormal field is all about. 

Kell Ridley and Michael Kopf started this show to help bring to light how the UK investigates and shares paranormal experiences versus how the USA investigates and shares paranormal experiences.  This show has also become a personal journey into topics that Kell and Michael have interest in and are grateful for Matt joining in this goal and sharing his experiences and interests.

The Energy That Surrounds Us and TETSU: Riding Through the Unknown is hosted by Michael Kopf.

Paranormal Vs. is hosted currently by Kell Ridley, Michael Kopf and Matt J B Atkinson

The shows are true podcasts and also vodcasts.  The difference is that podcasts are sound only and are usually on radio stations.  ETalk.TV has a web-based radio station that these shows air on and is why we are considered a true podcast.  Vodcast are video and audio shows which is the biggest difference.  These shows are recorded live with video and audio and are also considered vodcast.  

I like to say these shows are hybrid shows because you have the option of podcast or vodcast to watch and listen.

In 2024 sees the shows happily in Season Two.  Each of the shows are back in 2024 with new episodes and new content.

The Energy That Surrounds Us is remaining every Tuesday night at 9pmCST.

TETSU: Riding Through the Unknown for season two will be three episodes a month and air Wednesdays or Thursdays at 8pmCST to accommodate the guests schedule.  Some shows may be pre-recorded to fit the schedules of the host and guests.

Paranormal Vs. for season two will be three times a month at a new time of 3pmCST/9pmGMT.  

The live shows are all done on Streamyard and linked to YouTube, Rumble, ETalk.TV and X.

The pre-recorded shows may be done on Zoom or Streamyard and aired later in the show's timeslot.  These shows will be noted as being pre-recorded.
