Zak Bagans The Star of Ghost Adventures is Better Than You

foreign just wondering if rumors are true about you know whose ego from experience I questioned him once about how he treats his team and was blocked instantly in my opinion this rumor is true I witnessed it firsthand and I saw him treat people just as poorly hello there my name is Eric I am the host of paranormal Highway and I'm just talking to you just you

and I you and I I want to talk about Zach Baggins and Nick Groff and I thought this is important especially for me to talk about because I was on another show that talked about Zach but when I'm on other people's show and I I try my best to be PG because you know I don't want any person's channel to get in trouble because of me

so on my channel uh who cares right who cares if I get in trouble because the truth needs to be spoken you know when Ghost Adventures came out I watched it I watched it with my daughter you know my daughter you know we know it's not real real we know there's points of it of the investigation that is real but we know not every sighting that

they have on the show is real you know there is a lot of exaggeration and I can I can accept some exaggeration because the idea is you want to show the girl and unfortunately a show that's 100 100 truthful just ain't gonna make it so I understand you add the music you add the Machinery or something I get that and and that's fine and that's fine

but there is a point of when exaggeration goes a little bit too far you know I say it's different for everybody thirty percent exaggeration okay I get it but once you start hitting 40 percent 50 and above that's another form of lying if you agree with that or not it is another form of lying it it's one thing to go out and fake a total video

right you faking it I mean that's bad that is really bad faking everything right faking it that's like the worst kind or people who supposedly created reverse engines and UFOs that's false but when you take something simple like a sound or a tap and you run outside like you're scared to death like oh my God oh my God that becomes a lie in an exaggeration because

listen if it's your first time investigating I've done a lot of Investigations I know some of you are watching us now have done a lot of Investigations yourself in the beginning you probably would be freaked out with every scratch every sound but more to get used to it unless something bites you you feel a bite screaming and all that I'm sorry that's exaggeration that's the same

as lying I mean how many times you walk into it's almost like sometimes you walk into a building at night and and you feel something just went cold and I've learned on these shows that they do go to some spots that are cool but as soon as they feel something cold they use the address say oh my God it is completely Frozen so did they technically

lie that a temperature kind of change no but when you exaggerate how how cold it is that becomes a lie because in the Paranormal world when something becomes even colder it's it in theory it's pulling energy and when it pulls energy that part of the energy being pulled not part it's supposed to be freezing cold you're get that oh they didn't get that didn't understand that

well that's good that's why we're here to learn you know and so and listen and listen you got to listen to this and this is important this is very very very very very important you don't punish people or hate people because they come successful that becomes more of jealousy you're jealous of somebody else's success okay you know it's like that thing like you call your band

always have to agree that the shows are getting better or worse I mean that's up to the individual so you should never hate a show for the success that they get but the question is is how they handle the success are they the same team the same band that you liked you know are they still creating it from the heart because we know that sometimes money

corrupts fact money can corrupt some people can handle it more and some people can't now when you look at Zach and Nick Groff and there's Aaron but I'm Gonna Keep Aaron out of this this is between uh Zach and Nick Roth in the true history of Ghost Adventures we know that Nick Roth was the one who put the team together to do these investigations you know

the famous clip of uh when you saw Nick Croft in the video and you saw like a ghost like like walking across and we know that a local news channel picked that up a local news Channel first and then it hit it got National where they had enough money to make a documentary and there's some things that happened in a documentary where Discovery Channels like hey

we got a hit with Ghost Hunters you know what if we use these three guys and we'll do what they what they do the lockdown you know they're locked in there they can't come out but we all know even in a lockdown when it's only in one day when you get locked down you know they're doing a lot of work inside for the shots and screens

and all that so that's not pretend that they lock the gates and somebody filming for the next eight hours it's a it's a lot of setup and between that setup is hopefully they get they get the footage this discovery Channel knew that they're gonna have something with this Channel with the show because you had a handsome guy I mean they're all handsome guys in the show

Nick Sansom Aaron Zach Zach you know muscular he's got that attitude you know like I'm I'm Zach you me all bow down to me you know you see me in schools you see bullies um you know you know uh you always have like some of those preppy kids you know my age where they think they're better than you and that's who Zach has really become now

I don't know Zach before Ghost Adventures and before all that how he really was I mean I didn't grow up with them but I'm just ex I'm just looking at the information and what I've seen in front of me okay so like I said I didn't grow up with them I wasn't in the studio I wasn't behind the scenes I'm just judging what I've heard what

I listened to and when I heard Nick say when I heard Aaron say and what I heard Zack say but Zach's personality is about me and you could see where the cameras focus more on Zach than Nick and Eric now Aaron was the cameraman in the beginning so so so it's really Nick and Zach equal partners of the the lead investigators but you saw how the

camera loves Zach's attitude more and acts and Zach is that actor he's like the actor he was really playing the part of it and they knew it and they knew the show and the ratings went up and you know when you start getting all those comments and all that and people kind of It kind of like poor Nick kind of get shoved a little bit to

the side when all the ideas are the places to go and the vestigation set up and how it works really comes from Nick he's like the hard worker behind the scenes the time Aaron's just a camera person it becomes now like like an investigator you know part of the show and during the the seasons you kind of saw that it wasn't Nick and Zach it was

really Zack and everybody else and you can tell that the corruption started you could look back when they do cons autographs you know Zach was able to charge Mark he's more popular so Zach became the leader not by themselves is what the studio has given them and the public kind of like gave him the Power Rangers Zach you are Ghost Adventures when it should have been

those three Nick should have been equally part of it but it's not and part when you have a successful show and all that and as as you've seen in the movies that actors become producers they become directors even though they're staying on the same show that not really Branch out but they have like other projects you know a lot of bands have their main band and

then during the off times they have their uh experimental bands with other band members and they go out and play some shows concerts whatever you know that's what they do and Nick since his brains was the one who created the ghost adventure Style you know he wanted to Branch out a little bit not quit the show he wanted to produce some other shows which he was

in his right and Zach could do it too change starts happen when Zach wanted all for himself he didn't like it if if Nick was coming part of producer another show you know because he might be he might make some more money nobody could make more money than Zach and when you have the studio to say Zach you're the man baby you're the man you're the

man you're you're it and they made him the head of the team there were multiple questions regarding whether or not you believe that you have been limited or blocked from appearing on Travel Channel in my opinion I do believe I was blocked from the network and continuing my shows specifically because of one host who I used to work with shows no so what does Zach do

you know what guys I don't want Nick on the show no more now I can't cut his contract because the contract is with Discovery Channel so I'll make it easy for discovery you either keep me on leading this Ghost Adventures or what I mean is You're Gonna Keep Me on Nick has to go but if you guys want to keep Nick then you know what I'll

just go somewhere else right because I'm Nick I I'm sorry I am Zack Baggins and I could do whatever I want because the show ain't gonna last without me and the problem is when the studio took the exact side and I I'm sure that at the time you know the studio wanted all three but you know you can't lose your your most popular your popular guy

can happen right it can't happen so Nick has to go see the problem is you have the Travel Channel I mean there's so many Discovery Channel History Channel Discovery Channel themselves owns I don't know how many like like over 10 different channels and of course streaming they own a lot so and and his Discovery family tree of channels is what usually plays the paranormal shows so

it's not like well he can just join another Network well most all these networks are owned by the same network because Disney is not gonna do um a paranormal show like that because they're a family so there's not like you have all these choices so people say you need to jumping on the network yeah but they're out on my Discovery so Zach be like well if

he joins that Network God because you know because that's what you know that's what happens so so they won gone he's gone so Nick paranormal lockdown wasn't it only last like three seasons because the show is getting popular and Zach cannot have the Paranormal lockdown overshadow him because he's got to stay on top sugar scanned yes can and it's just sad because Zach feels if most

of the paranormal shows are gone there's less you know you know and and you know there's a loyal following with Nick because of Ghost Adventures that he created that might take his side over his it might you know might have a rating drop so the best way to do it is just not have them have a show so when people you know so maybe those people

who were following Nick said Nick doesn't have a show they'll jump right back to Ghost Adventures it's messed up it's messed up you know looking at myself I got a part of no network you know I'm just a small tiny YouTube channel but myself you know when my channel was growing fast in the beginning I mean it was growing fast you know I was at the

one time getting 780 and I had a lot of different people on my channel and some of them um a lot of some of them are better speakers than me don't get me wrong I'm not the best speaker in the world and I'm the first one to admit to you that I'm not the best speaker in the world I'm not I'll admit that I'll admit that

right now I'll admit that to you and not the best when I helped out some other channels and when they started growing they shift me away I had a you know so I want you know they shift away they they go away when their popularity and understand they have the personality better than mine and that you know they have easier they're gonna make it easier than

I can I have to work twice as hard and I get that and I'm willing to work twice as hard but to forget about you they don't want to talk about you they kind of leave you alone I have one channel actually had one channel who told their followers if he sees them in my channel he will ban them from his that really happened that really

happened cause a disturbance in the force I guess you could say you know December isn't a force and it's sad and I it happens two three times so so for me people like Zach really hits hard with me it really truly hits hard because I seen it now but now the difference between me and of course Nick he was already with the network you know he

was making an income from it I'm not making no income from from um you know YouTube or anything no sponsors nobody wants to sponsor me you know but was it an opportunity I don't know I would never know because even when channels leave or not if they want to say cool me you know maybe I would have grown even faster but when you have people turn

on you and so it's almost exactly like what Zach is done and it's a shame there's there's no there's no room for it you know I remember uh foggy he's in charge of the Marvel um you know I remember he made a comment about you know they're saying that Marvel and DC right they're going against each other you know it's about who's better right right and

I'm her Kim foggy said he doesn't want a a DC movie superhero movie to fell because every success that they have heightens people to watch more superhero movies so in a in a way it helps Marvel even though they're from two separate parties because more people are into it so if if Zach will slap himself in the mirror and realize if Nick has successful show Paranormal

and he and you know that he might have a lot of new followers say I like Nick he's great oh Nick was on Ghost Adventures and they're still on you're gonna gain it is healthy to have healthy strong channels you don't always have to grow by being the only big dog on the Block there's room for everybody and if everybody works together and have fun and

crisscross that's the way to go you know you know I've told people I would love to have a show on Discovery as long as they let me just have fun and do it the way I want to do it and be truthful and I will not exaggerate let's tell you how it is I wasn't haunted oh well next one you know and that costs are not

ratings all right at least I have my shot at least I have my shot so I don't know if I'm sure Zach's not going to be watching me on this video I I guarantee you that you know Zach's off his own world but but if Zach is there Zach realize it's healthy to know this whole team of yours if Aaron decides to leave tomorrow and you

know wants to do his whole show where he wants to be like you me on top support it nourish it because it only helps your show more and there's no reason to exaggerate so when you get possessed pick up aspirins call it a day drink some water okay you probably don't need a priest to do his Seance on you come on okay okay so if you're

listening to this take a couple aspirins relax so that's my thoughts on the Zak Baggins and Nick Groff and I hope there'll be a new project with Nick Groff coming out because he's a very talented guy I respect his his um his paranormal research and I want him to see and I I want Zach to secede too but as a real person not Zach who takes

an idea of a museum for somebody else and makes it his own get it out there first with the name recognition I'm not talking about not that Zack with Nick on the first investigation ever that guy want to see again not the news Act I really knew he's been like that probably started growing after the second season third season four season s but beyond that I

hope you guys enjoyed this um I love to see you guys during my live shows or whatever in the future and uh there's always something I always have to say to say I hope to see you guys all next time on the Paranormal Highway exactly why you left Ghost Adventures in my opinion based on what I was told a certain individual that I worked with called

up the network and said he would not show up at the next location if I showed up [Applause] [Music] foreign [Music]
