Mr. Curbs

Co-host of The Sinister District and a longtime friend and podcasting partner of Michael Paul.

Mr. Curbs is a longtime friend of Michael Paul and serves as the co-host of The Sinister District podcast. He has joined Michael Paul on multiple podcasting projects, including The Treeo Podcast, prior to the creation of The Sinister District.

Mr. Curbs takes a strong interest in interviewing individuals and exploring topics related to cryptids and the paranormal, allowing him to be knowledgeable on most subjects discussed on the show. His curiosity and engagement help guide conversations and expand upon firsthand experiences shared by guests and listeners.

His hope is to gain a fanbase while helping bring awareness to strange and unexplained firsthand encounters. Mr. Curbs chooses to keep his personal life private and intentionally limits the amount of personal information shared publicly.

On the Show

Mr. Curbs co-hosts The Sinister District alongside Michael Paul, sitting in on the guest interviews at the heart of every episode. The chemistry between the two hosts is a defining part of the show: episodes move between serious paranormal discussion, firsthand accounts from guests, and natural conversational moments that give the podcast its immersive tone.

Creating The Sinister District

The idea for The Sinister District goes back to 2023, when Mr. Curbs and Michael Paul came up with the concept during high school lunch. When Michael suggested calling the show’s fictional city “Sin City,” it was Curbs who reminded him that was already the name of a song — and the two settled on The Sinister District instead.

Curbs also had a hand in the show’s catchphrase history: the early line “What is this some kind of Sinister District?” was dropped after he decided it sounded stupid, though Michael still slips it in now and then.

Before The Sinister District

Mr. Curbs and Michael Paul worked together on earlier podcasting projects, including The Treeo Podcast, before launching The Sinister District.
