Paranormal Comedy / Open Lines

About the show

Sam Tripoli is an LA stand-up comic, former Joe Rogan guest, and host of the Tinfoil Hat podcast. He joined guest host Richard Syrett (Twitter) to discuss the comedy scene, the influence of podcasts, his belief in the unseen world, and personal experiences with the paranormal, which included seeing ghosts at the Comedy Store and experiencing "glitches in the Matrix."

Tripoli recounted his background as an early guest on The Joe Rogan Experience, noting how he was part of the podcasting scene's initial wave with the "Death Squad" network, which he believes significantly influenced the shift of content creation away from traditional Hollywood and legacy media. He highlighted how authentic voices like his friends Joe Rogan, Theo Vaughn, and Tim Dillon resonate with audiences seeking genuine content. Tripoli praised the freedom that podcasting offers, allowing people to connect and share ideas directly and providing a platform where free speech and diverse opinions can thrive.

Tripoli explained how his worldview shifted early on when he observed contradictions between what was portrayed in professional wrestling and the relationships between wrestlers off-stage, leading him to question the nature of authenticity and truth. This experience laid the foundation for his perspective as a conspiracy theorist, a mindset further reinforced by political observations and events he views as entirely theatrical. Tripoli said his approach to comedy and conspiracy explores the blurred lines between truth and performance.

Tripoli's comedy tackles issues like cancel culture and polarization, exploring how societal divisions often hinder open dialogue. He suggested that technology and algorithms reinforce echo chambers, creating alternate realities where people struggle to connect. His approach to comedy isn't about conventionally uniting people but rather breaking down societal taboos through humor, and fostering a space where audiences can confront difficult truths. He also touched on his belief in spiritual warfare, seeing the world embroiled in a great battle between good and evil forces.

Open Lines followed in the latter half of the program. Emma from North Carolina shared a chilling story about experiencing paranormal events in an old house she had lived in for years. Emma described frequent electrical issues, odd feelings, and seeing shadows, which prompted her to try saging the home on a friend's advice. Despite her efforts, Emma encountered a disturbing figure one night: a man with a metallic, bronze-like face and a maniacal laugh who seemed to taunt her. This experience, along with ongoing strange occurrences, eventually led Emma to move out of the house.

Traveler in Georgia shared memories of an existence before birth, recalling being a spirit with others like him. He first recognized these memories as a child but kept quiet, unsure if it was imagination. As Traveler grew older and began exploring genealogy, he described feeling a connection with his ancestors, who seemed to be helping him with his research. Over time, Traveler experienced a deeper, telepathic communication with these spirits, through which he sensed the spirits' awareness of past, present, and possibly future events.

Butch from Utah recounted a strange encounter near Skinwalker Ranch. One cold Sunday morning, he encountered an elderly man with long white hair, walking alone in snowy, frigid weather. Offering the man a ride, he dropped him off at a house he claimed was his boss's. After reconsidering, Butch returned to give the man some money, only to find the house empty, without tracks in the snow, even though they'd just been there. This strange event, combined with later learning about Skinwalker Ranch, left him puzzled about what he experienced.
