Paulides is one of a group of Coast regular guests who fit a common profile - they present themselves, with some success, as different than the usual wackjobs and charlatans in the paranormal scene. Paulides was a cop for 20 years, he says so anyway. And missing persons are an interesting phenomenon mystery. Some people do just *seem* to disappear without a trace and are never found. And Paulides claims that's all he's doing, just asking questions, just investigating. BUT as the interview goes on he reveals himself - to Noory's delight the interview turned into a salute to what else ........ PORTALS. Portals are the answer to everything. Paulides describes a conversation with someone named Brandenburg, he claims is a theoretical physicist who told him that theoretical physicists discuss portals in private all the time and believe humans may be traveling through these portals. Noory asks many of his childlike questions 'Why do people die in these portals? Is is that there's no oxygen in the portal? Is that possible?' Then Noory of course has to not only bring up a Twilight Zone episode he has to act out the entire episode where a little girl disappears into another dimension through a portal. He also recounted the story about a young man who appeared on the streets of Manhattan. He was a young man who appeared out of nowhwere disoriented dressed in clothing from the 1800s, before people could offer him help, spooked, he stepped into the street in front of a taxi cab and was killed. The police found personal items - coins, a letter, business cards etc in his pockets, all from the 1800s. Noory presents this cockamamie story to Paulides as if it is real and evidence of a portal being used to time travel. It's an urban legend, the source of it is a short story published in Colliers magazine in 1951 by a well known sci-fi writer who wrote famous novels like The Body Snatchers.
oh god now it's turned into a sobfest. Paulides lost his son recently to suicide. Noory awkward as always. Paulides pins his son's suicide on what these idiots in authority have done to all our lives locking down society due to their fear of Covid. So many people deserve to be put in jail and some like Fauci and Daszak should be hung. But Cornelius came on the air to save the day to make Paulidus feel better sharing with him that he too also suffered a recent loss, his dad died of Covid. Yes Cornelius the death of a 90 year old is just like the death of a 20 something year old. What kind of loser and narcissist phones into a talk radio show to tell the show's guests his pathetic life story. Nobody fucking cares who you are or where you're from or what your problems are Corny.
