Tom and Dave Jones

Fe Time”!  Dave and Tom 

       For nearly 20 years, the goal of the Para X Network has been, as the tagline states, ”All Paranormal....All the Time”!  Dave and Tom started the most iconic name in paranormal programming in an auspicious way.  It all began with a photograph taken at Tom's wedding reception.  The study of that particular photograph lead them to take two digital recorders and a sense of adventure into paranormal investigations, with some stunning evidence as the outcome.  With a growing interest in the field, they formed a paranormal investigation group and wanted to share their findings with others. They began to get requests to investigate paranormal occurrences in homes and businesses, and soon found that a website was necessary to show their evidence in a more comprehensive way.  The success of the website resulted in the need to talk to other paranormal groups, and to share information in real time.  They started a small talk show scheduled each week, and the audience grew.  It was with this realization that so many wanted to discuss paranormal findings and theories that it was necessary to begin a paranormal network, and the Para X Radio Network was born.  Soon, dozens of shows joined the Network, and due to the dedicated show hosts, administrators and an audience hungry to discuss different fields of expertise and techniques,  Para X became the leading paranormal network in existence.  So many celebrities, experts, witnesses and theorists joined in the effort that it became necessary to branch out to include larger audiences who were hungry to hear what was new and exciting. Many of the hosts, guests, and experts who shared their talents have gone on to become notable names in the paranormal, and this legacy has been the greatest highlight of the work.  Several hosts with the network were contacted to do shows on the CBS Radio Network, and Para X programming was being aired in areas such as Detroit, Boston, Pittsburgh and Seattle.  Para X pioneered the use of live video feed to investigate notable haunted locations all across the country, and include the audience in watching for activity and via chat helping the investigators spot occurrences of possible paranormal action. 

​

         Due to the untimely death of Tom in 2013, and after Dave continued to head the network alone for awhile, it was apparent that Para X should be entrusted to other leadership.  Erick Brumble agreed to head the network, and Para X continued to be the leading name in the industry.  With Erick's decision to pass the torch in 2025, Ron Kolek has now agreed to carry on the remarkable history for which Para X is noted.  Ron, with his history and expertise will be a splendid leader of the network, and it will be exciting to see the next chapter unfold.  “All Paranormal....All the Time”.....and beyond!
