In Episode 544: Beasts and Portals of Hockomock Swamp we are joined in the studio by Phil Anderson! Phil was a guest on The Confessionals in the early days of Episode 50: Haunting Stories of Onset, Massachusetts. He is also heard in the show intro when he says, "Dude, he slithered over to me." Phil and I went to college together and he played a big role in building up my confidence when starting this show and now I return the favor as he is now diving into paranormal investigations with his YouTube channel. He goes by Exploring With Phil and he started out doing Randonautica videos and then migrated into doing more paranormal investigations in the Bridgewater Triangle area of New England. He heavily focuses on the Hockomock Swamp which its been known to have tons of paranormal and cryptid activity as it is also known as The Devil's Swamp. Phil has caught a lot of EVPs while investigating and has seen a black "wolf" in the light of day. In the same area he has heard the "metal door" sounds on two occasions and one of those times the experience lasted about 25 minutes. He comes on today to share about his journeys hunting down the unknown in the Hockomock Swap in the Bridgewater Triangle.

FRIENDLY FEATURE FRIDAY! I was recently a guest on Forbidden Knowledge News with Chris Mathieu talking about portals, alternate realities, dogman in Louisiana, swamp giants, and tons more. I wanted you to share this recording with my audience because I covered a lot of stuff that I believe you all will really enjoy. Go check out Chris's show Forbidden Knowledge News on any podcast-playing app!

In Episode 543: Stepping Into Alternate Realities we are joined by Ceasar who comes to share about his wild experiences serving in the United States military. Ceasar shares a story that has some shadows of Charlie's story from Episode 122: Secret Military Enochian Technology such as the oddities of circulating around him filling out his "dream sheet" of what he would like to do most while he serves. He ends up getting stationed in Antarctica and from there, things get outright weird for him. He talks about finding himself in President Bush's limo, having reptilian roommates, time travel, portal entries, underwater bases, working with greys, and much more. Today, Ceasar is still dealing with some issues post-military service as he believes he has a handler that follows him around, essentially gangstalking him to which the purpose is unknown. But before he walks us into all this, he lays the foundation of his childhood where he was sent to a nunnery, and how that experience might play a foundational role in his life direction.

In Episode 542: Weaponization Of UAPs | From Rendlesham Forest to Artificial Intelligence we are joined by John Burroughs to talk about what he saw during his legendary 3-day encounter with UAPs in Rendlesham Forest in 1980. The Rendlesham Forest incident is possibly just as important or more so than Roswell. John came on to talk about what his experience was and also what he thinks the purpose of it was. We talk about how Project Blue Beam could play into the future of UAP sightings and collective consciousness. What does the government know and how do they plan on using that knowledge to their benefit against the people? What are they doing behind closed doors with pseudoscientific methods to create wormholes to affect time and space? We talk about it all on today’s show.

In Episode 541: Portal Entities we are joined by Pastor Daniel. He shares how when he was a child he and his brother saw a horned entity in their bedroom but what his brother saw was a little more than a child would have to experience. We venture into a topic of conversation where we discuss where these beings are coming from and how are they getting here. Could it be portals? Could their very makeup be a type of portal to traverse between realms? Could the human mind be a portal into other realms?  We discuss all this in today’s member episode.

In Episode 540: Portals To Hell & Biblical Super Soldiers we are joined by Bishop Alan Didio! I first came across the Bishop on his Instagram reels where he was talking about portals to hell, monsters in the Bible, and end-times prophecies. Since then he has got even more popular and I couldn’t wait any longer to get him on the show. Though we didn’t hit on everything I planned on we went deep on portals to hell, biblical super soldiers, Enoch, what heaven will be like, supernatural powers, and miraculous healings. Next time we have him on we will hit on end times prophecies, Revelation, biblical monsters, A.I., and transhumanism because Bishop Didio has an opinion on all of it!

In Episode 288: Family Funeral Home, guest Bridget shares some of her paranormal experiences, involving apparitions, orbs, her pets, and even a family funeral home. Bridget tells us about living in an active home in Connecticut, where apparitions appeared and her cat would chase orbs through the house. Though her cat could see them, Bridget and her family did not realize what he was chasing until they started taking pictures - then suddenly, they were given a clear look at what the cat could see all along! Bridget also shares the intense experience she, her fiancé, and her dog underwent when they spent a few nights staying in a residence located above a funeral home. She describes her dog’s unusual and panicked behavior from the moment they arrived to the moment they all witnessed a radiating black shadow materialize in front of them!
