    750: Killing Nephilim For Jesus
    Apr 22 2025
    In episode 750: Killing Nephilim For Jesus, Tony is joined in-studio by Derek and Jack for a freewheeling conversation that crashes through end-times prophecy, remote viewing, ancient relics, and spiritual warfare. From the death of the pope and the mysterious prophecy of St. Malachy to CIA documents on the Ark of the Covenant, they connect the dots between esoteric threads and biblical foundations—asking what it all means for the times we're living in.

    But it doesn’t stop there. They dive into a full-on battle plan for fighting Nephilim in the apocalypse—complete with Marvel-style powers, biblical superhuman feats, and an AI-generated naming ceremony for their end-times alter-egos. It’s unfiltered, unscripted, and undeniably supernatural. Because when the veil starts to thin, you’d better be armed—with truth, with faith, and maybe even a Nephilim Blaster 2000.

    RELOADED | 426: Police Officer's Paranormal Life
    Apr 21 2025
    In Episode 426: Police Officer's Paranormal Life, we are joined by Dave. Dave doesn't listen to The Confessionals and didn't know he was scheduled for an interview until a few weeks beforehand when his wife Brandy sprung it on him! Even though he wasn't prepared to tell his experiences, Dave didn't disappoint. He begins his story by revealing that his ancestor, Bridget Bishop, was the first person executed for witchcraft during the Salem witch trials in 1692. Considering that this family history could be a reason for the paranormal experiences in his life, Dave goes on to tell us about Hatman, his experiences on duty as a police officer, and even his strange relationship with electronics, in which he seems to drain them of all their energy.

    Members Preview | 749: The Night The Sky Split Open
    Apr 17 2025
    In episode 749: The Night The Sky Split Open, Tony is joined by Shlomo, whose life has been a relentless collision between light and darkness. It began when, at just five years old, he prayed, and the sky split open. A glowing vertical slit, like a scroll unraveling above him, lit up the town until sunrise. That moment marked the start of a life encountered by the supernatural. Raised Catholic but surrounded by generational witchcraft, Shlomo fell deep into occultism: Ouija boards, summoning rituals, and shadow entities followed him from the Philippines to Australia. He faced poltergeists, witch doctors, and demonic figures that targeted his family for years. By the time he hit American soil, the darkness had a grip, and prison seemed like the final stop.

    But God wasn’t done. A glowing woman appeared on a stormy night. A voice asked him what he’d done with his life. A radiant being hovered in the sky. These divine encounters weren’t dreams, they were rescue missions. And each one pulled him closer to a radical transformation. Because sometimes, when the veil is ripped wide open… it’s not just to show you what’s out there. It’s to pull you out of it.
