    Season's greetings, my spectral spectators! 🎄✨


    This week, the spirits have guided me to the vibrant city of Dublin, performing to a sold-out crowd! The energy is electric, and I'm thrilled to share this festive episode with you all.


    Back in the studio, Linda and I chat about Paul McCartney and Rod Stewart—legends with stories as rich as any ghostly tale. We dive into heartfelt emails from Helen Heald and Sam in America, sharing their mystical experiences.


    From Take A Break Fate and Fortune, we explore "I'm a Real Ghost Writer," about contacting dead celebrities—a fascinating look into spectral communication with stars of yesteryear.


    An anonymous email from "R" shares a job-related dilemma. Linda and I offer our (somewhat) sage advice, leading me to reminisce about attending a sports auction, rubbing shoulders with the Jason Leonard Fun Bus and the rugby lads, and musing why us Brits can be reserved with affection.


    We discuss an issue involving an 80-year-old mum saying unkind things to her offspring. Family dynamics can be tricky, especially during the holidays; we offer thoughts on navigating such challenges.


    I interview Carly Pochelli at the Blackburn Empire, who shares enchanting theatre stories you won't want to miss.


    From Fate and Fortune, we delve into a story about central heating—but not as you might expect! There's also a haunting tale about a haunted wardrobe that's sure to send shivers down your spine.


    I catch up with Hannah Grey in Nottingham, the lovely girlfriend of my support act, Sam Harland. We chat about life on the road and unique experiences.

    We address a problem about a couple still living together despite splitting up—a tricky situation, and we offer our best mystical guidance.


    As we wrap up this festive episode, we extend heartfelt thanks to everyone who made it possible.

    May your holidays be filled with joy, laughter, and just the right amount of spookiness! 🎅👻


    Keep those spirits high and your hearts open to the wonders around you.

    Greetings, my spectral spectators! 🌙


    This week, the spirits have guided me to a full house in Sunderland—wish me luck! The energy here is off the charts, and I can't wait to connect with all the eager souls ready for a journey beyond the veil.


    Back in the studio, Linda and I dive into the recent "Xodus" from Twitter. Has social media been shrinking our brains? We ponder the impact of endless scrolling and whether it's time to disconnect from the digital and reconnect with the mystical.


    We share a chilling ghost story from Tim Fletcher that'll make you think twice about things that go bump in the night. Then, I have a fascinating pre-recorded chat with Sam Duffy in Edinburgh. The Scots always have the best tales, don't they?


    Prepare yourselves for a spooky (and somewhat cheeky) tale set in Essex about a groping ghost—yes, you heard that right! We also hear another intriguing pre-recorded story from Corrine Bills in Edinburgh. The supernatural happenings up north are truly something else!


    From our favourite magazine, Fate and Fortune, we delve into a touching story about a lady who had trouble conceiving—a heartwarming reminder that miracles do happen. Linda puts on her agony aunt hat and solves a couple of problems from the magazine, offering her (mostly) sage advice.


    We wrap things up with a chat with Julian Smith from Second Scene. You won't want to miss what he has to share—it's the perfect blend of the mysterious and the marvellous.


    As always, we have some fabulous music to see us out, courtesy of Mark Kilby for the busker segment and the wonderful Georgia Lowe for our play-out music.

    Join us for an episode brimming with laughter, chills, and plenty of paranormal pondering!


    Stay spooky, my loves, and remember—the veil is thinnest when we're together!


    Spiritually yours,

    Clint x

    Greetings, my spectral spectators! 🌙


    This week, the spirits have whisked me away to the magnificent Buxton Opera House, where it's a full house! Wish me luck as I bring the ethereal to the eager masses. The energy here is electric—who knows what otherworldly encounters await us tonight?

    Back in the studio, Linda and I experience a bit of déjà vu, which prompts me to burst into song—"Déjà Vu" by the fabulous Dionne Warwick! 🎶 Remember that classic? If not, give it a listen; it's a timeless tune that stirs the soul.


    Dionne Warwick: https://youtu.be/R2ILm3bJLRY?si=HSjjOebG1dh-lQZp


    Linda shares some hilarious stories about mistaken identities. It reminds me of a chap named Jim, who keeps getting mistaken for his own dad—the father of Will Lankshear, who plays for Spurs! Imagine being mistaken for someone 20 years your senior. Talk about a blow to the ego!

    Hold onto your crystal balls, because we've got a spooky recording from Colin Boston


    From our favourite magazine, Fate and Fortune, we delve into a haunting tale about a ghost girl. It's a story that blurs the lines between reality and the supernatural.


    We received an intriguing email from our very own producer, Laurie Peters. He recounts a time when he was filming in a graveyard and, after making some noise, felt a knock from beneath the grave he was sitting on! A gentle reminder from the spirits to keep it down, perhaps? For our Patreon supporters, we've attached a photo showing the type of grave he was perched on—spooky stuff!


    Next, we hear from Kieran Regan at City Varieties in Leeds, sharing eerie theatre experiences—those old venues are truly haunted!

    We tackle some everyday dilemmas with our mystical twist, including family holidays, the school run, and blending families—always a challenge when spirits (and in-laws) are involved!

    We catch up again with Peter Normanton from Barnard Castle, whose captivating tales shed light on unseen forces around us.

    Finally, from Fate and Fortune, we explore enchanting stories about fairies and an intriguing account involving a psychic. Are mystical creatures hiding in plain sight?

    Jan 3 2025

    Greetings, my spectral spectators! 🌙

    This week, the spirits have guided me to the enchanting Gaiety Theatre on the Isle of Man. Three tiers of eager souls packed in to witness the wonders of my Rollerghost Tour—what an absolute delight! If you haven't secured your tickets yet, head over to clintonbaptiste.com/tour before they vanish into the ether.

    Back in the studio, Linda shares her triumphant tale of tackling car maintenance without disgracing womankind at the petrol station! She sorted out the oil in her car all by herself—bravo, Linda! 🚗✨ We chat about cars and my own adventures (and misadventures) with garages. Who knew the spirit world had so much to say about motor maintenance?

    We delve into a chilling story about a banshee from our favourite magazine, Take A Break Fate and Fortune. Is it a harbinger of doom or just a howling wind? You'll have to listen to find out! Then, we explore a tale about being a witch—grab your broomsticks and pointy hats, because this one is spellbinding!

    We share a captivating story from Ryan Shawcross and have the pleasure of interviewing him. His experiences are truly otherworldly—you won't want to miss what he has to say.

    Our friend Mark Kilby sends in another busker recording. For all you music aficionados, it's... well, it's something! 🎶 Let's just say it's got a unique charm that only a busker can deliver.

    Linda and I tackle perplexing problems from our beloved magazine readers. Ever wondered what that strange dream means? We offer our (somewhat) sage advice. Our chat takes a wild turn when we discuss being in a spa and encountering a bloke who was, shall we say, off his face on certain substances. It happened, folks!

    We address a problem about cats—because when don't our feline friends cause a bit of mischief? Then, we ponder over a bloke who wants to go travelling. Is he running away from something or towards adventure? We dish out our thoughts.

    I interview Melody from the Bonsai Restaurant on the Isle of Man. She shares delightful stories that are as tasty as her restaurant's dishes! 🍣

    See Patreon for proof www.patreon.com/clintonbaptiste — PROOF POSITIVE!!!!

    We also chat with Elaine Rowley, the box office manager from the Gaiety Theatre. She spills the beans on some spooky happenings behind the scenes—trust me, the ghosts in this theatre are more active than ever!

    We share a gripping story about a car crash that will have you on the edge of your seat. It’s a stark reminder of how fleeting life can be and how the spirit world is always closer than we think.


    Spiritually yours,

    Clint x

    Dec 27 2024

    Greetings, my spectral spectators! 🌙

    This week, the spirits guided me to the historic town of Colchester at the Arts Theatre. The house was packed with eager souls ready to experience the other side—what a night!

    Back in the studio, I join Linda for a hilarious chat about cooking blunders. Ever had a culinary disaster you tried to hide? Linda's stories will make you chuckle.

    Our conversation turns to hotel mishaps. I recount an incident in Rotherham where I got locked out of my hotel and ended up sharing a room with a fellow performer. Quite the adventure!

    We feature Mark Kilby's latest busker recording. For music lovers, it's... unique! 🎶

    We discuss an intriguing article about Roman soldiers, exploring how ancient spirits might still wander among us.

    Then, we reminisce about childhood and the simple joy of egg and soldiers. Comfort food that warms the soul!

    We share a captivating story from Ryan McNamara, followed by an enlightening chat with him about his eerie experiences.

    From Take a Break, we read "I'll See You in My Dreams"—a heartfelt tale blurring the lines between dreams and reality.

    I interview Suzie Stephenson from The Witham Arts Centre in Barnard Castle. She shares spooky happenings at the venue that you won't want to miss.

    Linda and I tackle perplexing problems from our favorite magazines, offering our (somewhat) sage advice.

    We chat with the fascinating Peter Normanton, who brings unique insights into the paranormal.

    Our next guest is Regan Lowe, whose stories are the stuff of legends—or should I say, ghost stories!

    We wrap up with heartfelt goodbyes, as Mark Kilby's busker music plays in the background, adding a perfect touch to our spectral journey.

    Join us for an episode filled with laughter, chills, and plenty of paranormal ponderings!

    Stay spooky, my loves, and remember—the veil is thinnest when we're together!

    Dec 20 2024

    Greetings, my spectral spectators! 🌙

    This week, the spirits whisk me to vibrant Liverpool! They're a rowdy lot—both Liverpool teams lost today, so the atmosphere was... spirited! Here's hoping they're coping with some mystical cheer.


    Back in the studio, Linda and I discuss when people say "You won't like that," then show it anyway! Let us make up our own minds, eh?

    We read an email from an anonymous listener seeking advice about working in media and job hunting. We offer our sage (and slightly supernatural) wisdom.


    Of course, we dive into our favourite Take A Break Fate & Fortune! We tackle readers' problems—remember, send your dilemmas to clinton@clintonbaptiste.com!


    Hold onto your crystals: it's PART TWO of our interview with the marvellous Rachael Macdonald. If you thought the first part was spooky, wait till you hear this!


    We delve into "A Prophecy of Terror," about a bloke predicting terrorist attacks. Heavy stuff, but fascinating—though Linda reckons it's coincidence.

    I chat with Tom Baggely, manager of the Gaiety Theatre in the Isle of Man. He shares a spine-chilling story that'll make you think twice about theatre seats.


    More problems tackled, including insights from Gordon Smith, the psychic barber. Imagine a haircut and a message from beyond!

    We discuss menopause—yes, even mediums tackle hot topics! Then onto my dog destroying my clothes. If I look disheveled, blame the dog, not the spirits!


    An... interesting interview with George French, night watchman at The Jesmond Dene Hotel in Newcastle. He promised a ghost story; perhaps he got the wrong end of the spirit stick!


    Our friend Amy Hughes from Witham Arts in Barnard Castle shares more spooky happenings. That place is Grand Central for ghosts!

    Finally, we chat about strange goings-on in the toilets of my local Lidl. If haunted houses scare you, try these loos!

    Join us for laughter, chills, and more twists than a ghost doing the hokey-pokey.


    Stay spooky, my loves—the veil is thinnest when we're together!

    Spiritually yours,

    Clint x

    Greetings, my spectral spectators! 🌙

    This week, the spirits have guided me to the stunning Buxton Opera House—it's a packed house! Wish me luck as I channel the energies of over a thousand eager souls. The atmosphere is electric; who knows what otherworldly encounters await us tonight!

    Back in the studio, Linda shares her fascination with the Northern Lights and chats about her recent trip to the dentist. Even amidst fillings and flossing, there's room for a bit of magic! 🦷✨

    She's been decluttering her house, getting rid of those skeletons in the closet—figuratively speaking, of course! It's always good to make space for new adventures and perhaps a friendly spirit or two.

    I recount some experiences with fans overstepping the mark at gigs. Imagine someone telling me I look pregnant! Cheeky, isn't it? And then an enthusiastic chap grabbed my leg during a selfie—nearly pulled a hamstring! Sometimes the living are more surprising than the spirits!

    We dive into our favourite magazine, Take A Break Fate & Fortune, discussing a captivating story about a bridal gown that mysteriously goes missing. Weddings and hauntings—a match made somewhere!

    Hold onto your ectoplasm because we have PART ONE of our interview with the enchanting Rachael Macdonald. She shares truly spooky experiences that'll make your hair stand on end. 👻


    More perplexing problems from our listeners. One intriguing tale involves betrayal, and we've got an image of a cabbage lion toy central to the story. (Patreons, check it out below!) Then there's the issue of an unfaithful husband—we offer our most thoughtful advice.

    We're thrilled to feature an MP3 from Kelly Neal, filled with insights and perhaps a ghostly whisper.


    Next, we hear from Amy Hughes from Witham Arts Centre in Barnard Castle. In PART ONE of our chat, she shares uncanny experiences from that historic venue.


    To top it all off, we have "A Day in the Afterlife" with the wonderful Sandrea Mosses, giving us a glimpse into what it's like in Heaven—not all harps and clouds, my loves!


    We bid farewell this week with a performance from a remarkable busker—the music you hear is all him! It's a soulful tune that'll linger like a friendly phantom.


    Join us for an episode brimming with laughter, chills, and plenty of paranormal ponderings!


    Stay spooky, my loves, and remember—the veil is thinnest when we're together!

    Dec 6 2024

    Greetings, my spectral spectators! 🌙


    This week, the spirits have guided me to the magnificent Victoria Theatre in Halifax, where I'm preparing to perform for a crowd of 1,200 people! I'll admit, I'm feeling a bit jittery—it's not every day you commune with that many souls at once, both living and... otherwise!


    Back in the studio, Linda shares her adventurous attempt at a DIY haircut using a YouTube tutorial. Seemed like a good idea at the time, but the results? Well, let's just say it's a hair-raising tale! ✂️ Not to be outdone, I recount my recent toenail surgery that's left me hobbling about like a ghoul with a grudge.


    We ponder other hidden talents and peculiar skills. My friend Benjamin Frank on Facebook boasts the unique ability to take pills without water. Now there's a party trick that'll impress... or perhaps concern!

    Hold onto your crystal balls because we have an absolutely chilling story from Andy Gardner. While working in a graveyard, Andy encountered a mysterious man in a grey suit. This gentleman spoke of London and visiting friends in the village, but his attire and mannerisms seemed oddly out of place. After a brief chat, Andy turned away momentarily, only to find the man had vanished without a trace! This spine-tingling tale is sure to send shivers down your spine. 👻

    Linda and I then tackle some intriguing dilemmas, starting with someone contemplating meeting up with a chatroom pal. Is it a destined connection or a spectral setup? We offer our sage (and slightly spooky) advice.


    Next, we hear from Ben at the stage door of the Victoria Theatre. He shares some eerie happenings within the historic venue—proof that theatres truly are hotbeds for hauntings!

    We delve into a captivating card reading story from Take a Break, followed by an enthralling tale about pregnancy that intertwines fate and the supernatural. Linda and I wrap things up by offering more of our (questionably) wise counsel on a variety of perplexing problems.


    Join us for an episode brimming with laughter, chills, and plenty of paranormal ponderings!


    Stay spooky, my loves, and remember—the veil is thinnest when we're together!

    Spiritually yours,

    Clint x
