    810: The Pagan Rituals an FBI Agent Saw
    Nov 18 2025
    An FBI Agent goes undercover inside America’s darkest pagan cults… and discovers something far more sinister than criminal activity. Rituals. Blood offerings. Blóts. Pagan ceremonies that weren’t just symbolic, something was responding. In this exclusive interview, a retired federal agent, Scott Payne, recounts the supernatural encounters he experienced while infiltrating extremist groups who blended ideology with occult ritual. What started as an investigation into domestic terror slowly revealed a deeper war, one not fought with weapons, but with spirits, influence, and ancient forces still active today. Inside these pagan rituals, the Kingdom of Darkness wasn’t just present… it looked back. If you’re interested in the supernatural world behind real investigations, spiritual warfare, cults, rituals, and the hidden battle influencing culture today, this is an episode you won’t forget. Please pray for Tony's wife, Lindsay, as she battles breast cancer. Your prayers make a difference!

  • When the 6-7 Portal Opened | Slingshot Nation

    When the 6-7 Portal Opened | Slingshot Nation
    Nov 14 2025
    The viral “6-7” chant has taken over culture—echoing through stadiums, classrooms, TikTok videos, and livestreams—yet almost no one understands where it came from or why it spread so fast. This video traces the trend back to its unlikely source: Philly rapper Skrilla, whose song “Doot Doot” contains the now-famous “6-7” line. What begins as a harmless meme unravels into something far darker as his openly practiced Santería, Palo rituals, animal sacrifices, and spell-casting come to light. With lyrics referencing soul-snatching and songs named for Yoruba deities, the cultural explosion suddenly appears far more intentional than accidental. The episode explores whether the 6-7 chant has spiritual roots, ritualistic energy, or deeper meaning behind the scenes—especially when compared with passages like Ezekiel 13:18 describing those who “hunt human souls." By examining Skrilla’s practices, the symbolism behind his music, and the mysterious global spread of “6-7,” this video digs into the spiritual, cultural, and supernatural layers of a trend millions are repeating without knowing its origin.

    What if, in the dead of night, you woke to find not one shadow watching you, but two plotting together in the dark? In this chilling conversation, Christina relives the night a hooded figure with glowing red eyes reached from the darkness, its skeletal hand with claw-like nails scratching deep into her arm. Behind it, a towering beast-shaped shadow with horns and burning eyes watched in silence, radiating a presence far more sinister than the Reaper itself. What she saw that night blurred the line between the living and the damned, and it never truly left her. Please pray for Tony's wife, Lindsay, as she battles breast cancer.

    808: Fear in the Florida Swamp
    Nov 11 2025
    What if the creature stalking the swamps of Florida isn’t flesh and blood at all? In this chilling sit-down, Tony and Stacy Brown Jr. retrace the night his father captured one of the most compelling Bigfoot videos ever filmed, and the haunting encounters that followed. Driven to prove the truth of what he’s seen, Stacy reveals his new docu-series, Bigfoot: The Journey to Belief; a quest to turn skeptics into believers. As they unravel stories of unseen watchers, eerie lights, and strange voices in the dark, a question emerges: are these beings beasts of the wild, or something far more supernatural?

    RELOADED | 286: It Grabbed My Soul
    Nov 10 2025
    In Episode 286: It Grabbed My Soul, we speak with Seth, whose experiences with lucid dreaming seem to take him into a different, interactive realm. Over time Seth has been able to take some control over his lucid dreams and change their outcomes. He tells us of his strange dream encounters, including an eerie instance when a dark humanoid figure grabbed him as he lay on his bed. Even though the figure seemed to only grab his try toes, Seth describes how he felt as though it was pulling out his soul - all while he could hear and feel a kind of electrical charge building around him!

    Please pray for Tony's wife, Lindsay, as she battles breast cancer. Your prayers make a difference!

    Nov 6 2025
    In this episode, Tony sits down with Brian Jeffrey of Black Mass Paranormal to unravel the chilling accounts behind his footage from East Tennessee’s backcountry, a place where the woods hide more than shadows. What began as a routine investigation turned into a desperate flight through the forest as black, humanoid shapes closed in behind him. From dogman-like figures to the unnerving legends of feral people stalking the Appalachian caves, Brian describes encounters that blur the line between human and something far darker. Together, they explore the predator-like clicking sounds echoing through restricted federal land, the possibility of underground civilizations, and the horrifying question: Are these the same beings behind the missing people of East Tennessee?
