About Wellington Paranormal | The Podcast

Created by Jemaine Clement and Taika Waititi, Wellington Paranormal’s television debut in 2018 took Aotearoa by storm and its international release saw it shoot to #1 on the streaming charts in the USA, beating Rick and Morty, Ted Lasso and everything else (it was #1!). Now you can hear the stars of Wellington Paranormal (Mike Minogue and Karen O'Leary) stumble their way through their very own podcast, where they discuss making the "greatest tv show of all time" (according to their mums). The para-cop-mockumentary is beloved the world over, with millions of fans watching classic kiwi talents like Rhys Darby, Cori Gonzales-Maceur Lynda Topp and Mel Bracewell.
