In episode 733: Ex-Shaman Exposes Dark Secrets, Patrick shares his journey which is unlike any other. Once deeply entrenched in shamanic practices, Reiki, and spiritual realms, he shares his incredible transformation, from wielding supernatural power to witnessing firsthand the darkness that lurks beneath. Patrick opens up about his family’s ancient bloodline, his encounters with otherworldly entities, and the shocking events that led him to abandon it all.

He dives into the hidden influences shaping our destinies, the reality of soul retrieval, and the deception behind the pursuit of enlightenment. With haunting experiences of shadow figures, ancestral spirits, and a direct encounter with a divine angel, Patrick’s story reveals the unseen battle for our souls.

How do generational ties impact our spiritual paths? And could some supernatural encounters be leading us away from the truth rather than toward it?

In episode 731: Unseen War Across Bloodlines, Derek joins for a mind-bending journey into his past, the supernatural forces that have stalked his family, and the bloodline curses that refuse to let go. Raised in a broken home, Derek wrestled with lucid dreams from childhood, nightmarish encounters that seemed more real than dreams should be. But the deeper he dug, the more disturbing the truth became—generational iniquity, Masonic ties, and an unseen presence that never stopped watching.

He then shares the story of a woman he knows who has had multiple encounters with Dogman, one that attacked her and another that seemed to help. Scars remain, both physical and spiritual, but they raise even bigger questions: UFO sightings, strange dream realms, and the possibility of ancient agreements still at work today. The question isn’t whether something is watching—it’s what happens when you finally see it.

In episode 730: Hollywood, Deception, and the End-Times Agenda, Tony sits down with Pastor Todd Coconato for a raw and powerful conversation about faith, survival, and the unseen battles shaping our world. Todd shares his shocking testimony of leaving behind a dark Hollywood lifestyle, only to be stabbed nine times in a brutal attack, an event that led to a life-altering encounter with God.

They also dive deep into Hollywood’s underbelly, the spiritual warfare lurking behind the entertainment industry, and the growing hunger for truth in a world filled with deception. The discussion takes a wild turn into UFOs, abductions, and whether an ancient, supernatural intelligence is manipulating world events. Are we on the verge of a great awakening, or are we being led into one of the greatest deceptions in history?

In Episode 460: The Tennessee Triangle, we are joined by author Donna Hartley! Donna recently published the book Historic Haunts of Sumner County, Tennessee in which she documents the strange happenings in an area that makes up a mysterious triangle of paranormal activity. This triangle stretches from the Bell Witch Cave to the Cragfont House, and down the Long Hollow Pike. Inside its borders, there is a tendency for bizarre occurrences to be the norm! She also tells us about the things that happened in her own house that seemed to be spawned by the writing of this book.

In episode 729: Portal To Hell In Ada Ohio, Justin from Cryptids of the Corn pulls back the curtain on his childhood home, an unholy place where something dark refused to let go. A house gifted to his family, yet cursed from the start. Footsteps echoed through empty rooms, doors slammed without warning, and a shadowy presence loomed over his bed at night. The deeper his family dug, the more they uncovered: ritual papers hidden in the walls, a serpent-handled knife buried behind plaster, and a force that grew violent as they tried to escape. Even after they left, the house continued its dark work, changing hands eleven times in ten years; each owner running from the unseen horrors within. The question isn’t why the house is haunted, but what it’s guarding. And whether it will ever let go.

In episode 728: Spider Crawling Bigfoot and The Cabin With Dark Secrets, TJ shares firsthand encounters with something beyond the realm of normal Bigfoot lore. Towering figures watching from the treeline, deep, unearthly whoops echoing through the night—but the real terror? A Sasquatch that doesn't walk but crawls, moving low to the ground like a massive, inhuman spider. Reddish fur, forearms thick as a man’s legs, and intelligence lurking behind its eyes.

However, that’s just the beginning. Strange footprints under windows, guttural chatter from unseen mouths, and a primal force in the woods that seems to choose who gets to see it. Is this an undiscovered creature, a spiritual entity, or something far older than we can comprehend? When the forest comes alive, you’ll wish you weren’t there to see it.

Last night, I went live to break down the plane crash in Philadelphia as it happened—just two days after another crash in D.C. I scrolled through X (formerly Twitter), reacting to breaking footage, eyewitness reports, and theories in real time.

What I Covered:
🔹 Live updates and raw video from the scene
🔹 The strange pattern of multiple aircraft incidents within days
🔹 Theories on remote aircraft control, modern warfare, and potential connections
🔹 Chatting with listeners as we tried to make sense of it all

With so much happening in the skies, is this just a tragic coincidence, or is there something bigger at play?

Listen in as I process this in real-time, and let me know your thoughts.
