Splintered Spirits sits down with broadcaster, paranormal investigator, and intuitive ITC specialist Greg Bakun, host of Ghost Box Radio, for a deep dive into what it really means to talk to the dead. From the first time a spirit box answered him in a creepy Minneapolis basement to a jaw‑dropping session where a voice claiming to be Abraham Lincoln identified his own deathbed photo, Greg unpacks why he believes these aren’t “dark forces” but actual people still trying to communicate. He walks Gary and John through his no‑nonsense, SB7‑driven method, his reluctance to over‑process evidence, and how he found himself unexpectedly acting as a bridge between grieving families and the voices of their loved ones.

Across the conversation, Greg tackles the big questions at the heart of the show: what spirits are, why some refuse to “cross over,” and how belief, fear, and even ideas like “soul contracts” might shape your afterlife. He shares visceral stories from public investigations gone sideways, locations ruled by “gatekeeper” entities, and his evolving sense of ethics when audiences, spirits, and content all collide. Along the way, the three get candid about ego in paranormal media, rising investigation costs, the tension between tech and mediumship, and what responsible, evidence‑based investigation should look like in an era of viral clips and celebrity ghost hunters.
