Beyond Beyond Belief#45 Stay with us [S4E13]
The group talks about how the production pulled out all the stops on this final episode.
Chris reveals that Germany will make two new episodes of Beyond Belief for the twentieth anniversary of the original.
This is also the last chance for Chris to get all the stories correct. We will also find out who won season four and who throughout the entire season got the most stories correct.
Story 1: The Hand – In a bar called the Bloody Hand, named after a brutal murder of a woman whose only remains found we...2019-01-151h 02Beyond Beyond Belief#44 Frakes and geeks [S4E12 with Samm Levine]
Kyle is sitting out but we have guest-host actor and podcaster Samm Levine. Samm has watched the show before, and also had a neighbor who bragged about acting in an episode of Beyond Belief.
Samm is a hardline skeptic of all things supernatural. A big believer of known skeptic James Randy and the million-dollar challenge.
Samm has appeared recently on the show Movie Trivia Schmoedown.
Story 1: Witness To Murder – A ghost hunter who captured ghosts on film meets a mysterious end.
Samm tries to unpack Chris’s belief in ghosts.

Kyle is out, but joining us is the comedian, actor, and writer Jonathan Kite. Who has a new movie out – All The Creatures Are Stirring.
Jonathan is familiar with the show, but hasn’t seen it until now.
Jonathan talks about Nightmare on Elm Street’s origins, and how he’s seen a ghost in a girlfriend’s video.
Story 1: The Mystery Of Douglas Hibbard – A man, sick with the cold, checks into a motel and mysteriously stashes something in a safe.
Tiffany feels like it’s an urban legend.
Maybe the clerk j...2019-01-0155 minBeyond Beyond Belief#42 Futzing with the wrong drivers [S4E10]
Jesse pitches his Beyond Beliefe App which would randomize BB stories from all four seasons. This way you would get a fresh mix bag of stories each time.
This leads to a discussion of each host’s voting strategy and meta-game.
Story 1: Moonstruck Beach – An aspiring writer moves to a secluded town and finds herself the target of a dangerous man.
How can a ghost use printers and why wouldn’t the printer immediately warn her.
If it was true wouldn’t moonstruck beach be an actual book?
Tiffany wonders how many people need...2018-12-2558 minBeyond Beyond Belief#41 Into the spider closet [S4E9 with Will Hines]
Kyle is out this episode, but in his place we have guest host Will Hines! Will Hines is a comedian who performs at UCB LA and co-hosted the podcast “Don’t Get Me Started.”
Will hasn’t seen the original show before and is a hardline skeptic.
Story 1: The Wealthy Widow – A man marries a widow and goes looking for her late husband’s buried fortune.
Who tells this story?… since the man is dead and the other witness is a ghost? Will thinks maybe the widow murdered both husbands.
Everyone agrees the ghost taunti...2018-12-181h 02Beyond Beyond Belief#B06 Our original unaired pilot
This week we’re bringing you a special bonus episode: our original unaired pilot. No one outside of the five of us has ever heard this before. And in fact, we hadn’t even listened to it in over a year. So, we gathered around the campfire (living room) and marveled at our genius (inexperience). Take a listen with us and be sure to stick around until the end in which we have a post-mortem discussion about the original pilot, noting fun observations and easter eggs for long-time listeners.

2018-12-131h 09Beyond Beyond Belief#40 Leafing the witness [S4E8]
We’ve returned with the back half of our fourth and final season. And if something feels oddly familiar about this week’s batch of stories… it’s because we watched this episode in the past and recorded an unreleased episode as a test pilot. And as a bonus, we will be releasing the pilot episode this Thursday in all it’s horrifying, awkward glory. Thankfully, we can barely remember what happened in last week’s episode, so this should be pretty fresh for us.

Chris has gone rogue and started his own podcast: Highbrow Reviews. With some pretty spectacular co-hosts, I might add: Claire Berger and Max La Bella, both previous Beyond Beyond Belief guests. In this new podcast, Chris and his co-hosts get high and review things… movies, TV shows, video games, and a whole lot more. We’d love it if you’d show him some Beyond Belief love and take a listen. Unlike our show it doesn’t need to be listened to in any specific order—actually, does our show? Probably not—so subscribe, listen, and let us know what...2018-12-0515 minBeyond Beyond Belief#39 Car trouble [S4E7]
This is the season 4 mid-season break…and Jesse has karaoke voice.
Story 1: The Wreath – A detective investigating a hit and run case gets a break when another accident mysteriously occurs.
It’s very believable that city officials could get confused with their paperwork.
This could be a case of the complicated theory.
The parents of the deceased child were a bit too “handsy” given the scenario.
Story 2: Terror Night – A mysterious pipe leak leads to a life-changing event.
Chris just thinks this is about crappy apartments.
There’s been a running theme in season 4 –near...2018-10-2359 minBeyond Beyond Belief#38 Black belt ghost [S4E6 with Jamie Gaul & Joe Dolce]
This episode we welcome two guest hosts: comedian Jamie Gaul from Upright Citizens Brigade and friend-of-the-podcast Joe Dolce. Regarding the world of supernatural, Joe is a skeptic while Jamie is a “boo-liever.” That’s not actually said in the show. I just thought of that right now.
Story 1: The Dorm – A girl in college finds that her dorm protects her in mysterious ways.
Tiff doesn’t understand why the girl didn’t inform the mom that her daughter’s spirit helped her.
Jamie doesn’t understand why the mom came back to the dorm at all.

Tiffany realizes how hard it is to host the podcast (but is it really? Try doing these show-notes every week). Story 1: Second Sight – A blind woman who received a corneal transplant can’t help but stare at a certain suspicious looking man. No one believes this story. … Read More Read More2018-10-0253 minBeyond Beyond Belief#B03 Guest stories: Close Call & Midnight DogMisty Stinnett and Kelly Perron share their own beyond belief stories from our all-female panel of guests from Tuesday’s episode.
