Show notes

Wow! Here it is, the very first episode of ParaReality that I ever did. I had just signed up for a Live365 account and all I had was a headset microphone and an idea. I also had no clue what I was doing! I think that the first version of ParaReality Radio was a unique one. It combined stories of the paranormal with a nice dose of rock music, ending with one of the most popular segments that I ever did - News of the Strange. Back then, I could get away with playing music because Live365 covered me with music licensing. I know I'm not supposed to play licensed music without permission, but I feel that I need to keep the integrity of the original episode by keeping it as is. If I get into trouble, so be it. For some reason, I decided that for my very first episode of ParaReality ever, I wanted to tackle the story of the Devil's Footprints. a legend of hoof-like marks left by the Devil left in Devon, England. After heavy snowfall, mysterious, hoof-like prints appeared in a straight line for over 100 miles, crossing obstacles like rooftops and rivers, causing widespread panic. Explanations vary from escaped animals (kangaroos, donkeys) and unusual atmospheric conditions to a hoax, but the mystery remains unsolved. Please keep in mind that this was the very first episode that I did, so I had no clue what I was doing. It's definitely not my best work by far. That being kept in mind, it is what it is. I hope you can appreciate it.
