Good original concepts
Listened to four episodes. Thoughts so far: like the jazz piano interlude music, and the vintage 60s cartoon sound effects. Both give the podcast a nice character. Jokes are unexpectedly raunchy, in a sometimes roundabout, offhand and clever way. Also the bleak corporate humor is an interesting juxtaposition with jokes about monsters, vampires, witches etc. There’s an original concept here of a ghost private (“paranormal”) investigator, and the various situational humor of how an incorporeal ghost manages to investigate a corporeal world is also original and funny (the ghost manifests its right nostril to lead a sidekick through fog). Nice light listening. In the interest of being a helpful listener I’ll offer some critique though: while the jokes are funny, and the concepts are original, and the music adds the right ambience, I feel like the plot doesn’t have a lot of momentum. The crime mystery seems decent, but I don’t have a lot of sense of character motivation of why the ghost detective chooses to investigate rather than pass on to the next plane. Maybe the answer is later, but I feel like by episode 4 there should be a sense of conflict for the character, so i as a listener can anticipate his developing from that conflict later. Hope this helps.

Ok, I’m biased, I made it, but I still think it’s good!

Ok, I’m biased, I made it, but I still think it’s good, even after the hours of work that go into a 10-15 minute episode
