Description:
In episode 763: They Escaped Ouija's Dark Grip, Tony is joined by Travis, a man whose teenage curiosity led him into a nightmare that wouldn’t end. What began as a harmless game with friends escalated into terrifying encounters with a spirit named "Non"—a presence that etched its name into their notebooks, manipulated the physical world around them, and unleashed chaos with every session. Travis recounts nights filled with static-blasting speakers, chairs moving on their own, and birds and wind responding to rituals performed in eerie sync. But the scariest moment came when the board claimed it had possessed one of them—and demanded a cross before midnight to save his soul.
This episode tracks Travis’s descent into spiritual oppression, addiction, and darkness—and the powerful moment of self-deliverance when he encountered the real authority of Christ. From face-to-face encounters with a grinning hat man to a whirlwind of invisible entities leaving his body, Travis shares a raw, redemptive journey that proves the supernatural is real—and so is the victory found in Jesus.

Description:
In episode 762: Holy Spirit: God Within You, Tony is joined by author and evangelist David Diga Hernandez, whose life has been shaped by the Holy Spirit. From shadow figures and whispered voices to a warlock in his family line, David shares how generational darkness targeted him from childhood. But it was a hotel room prayer at age 11 that shattered the grip of fear and introduced him to the overwhelming presence of Jesus. What followed was a journey through spiritual deserts, battles with striving, and the discovery that the Holy Spirit isn’t earned—He abides.
Tony and David dive into the layers of deliverance, the deception of performance-based faith, and why Gen Z is being pulled between witchcraft and revival. This conversation cuts to the heart of spiritual warfare and reveals how true freedom comes not from formulas, but from surrender.

Description:
In episode 761: Recruited By A Demon Prince, Tony is joined by John, a former occultist whose story begins with childhood encounters that defy reason and ends in a radical deliverance only God could orchestrate. At age five, John was approached by a crowned, eight-foot-tall owl—later revealed to be Stolas, a high-ranking Prince of Hell. What followed was a descent into the darkest corners of spiritual warfare, including being taken to a throne room in hell, initiated through rituals, and taught ancient metaphysical practices by both demons and secret societies like the Rosicrucians.
But this isn't just a story about darkness—it's about redemption. From casting spells into drugs and opening portals at festivals, to hearing the literal voice of God and building frequency-based technology meant to restrain the forces of hell, John shares how Christ shattered the chains of his past and put him on assignment to battle evil in a legalistic spirit realm. With shocking confessions, insider knowledge on spiritual contracts, and a prophetic call to prepare for the deception of the end times, this episode is not for the faint of heart—but it's exactly the wake-up call the Church needs.

Description:
In episode 760: They Lied to You About the Rapture, Tony is joined in studio by Pastor Alan DiDio, whose radical encounter with Jesus launched him into a lifelong mission to understand and teach the truths of Bible prophecy. What began with a powerful dream just days after his salvation, standing in a field as a storm brews and a clock strikes 11:59, became the catalyst for a 25-year journey into the most controversial and misunderstood event in eschatology: the Rapture.
Together, Tony and Pastor Alan confront the confusion, mockery, and division surrounding the Rapture, both inside and outside the Church. They tackle biblical patterns of supernatural disappearances, the reality of glorified bodies, the parallels between Enoch and modern believers, and why the disappearance of millions will be more than a sci-fi headline, it will be a tipping point for human history. They also address the dangers of spiritual apathy, red-pilled pride, and the false security many Christians place in end-times theories rather than the Word itself.

On Episode 176: Red Eyed Demons Dogs, we have Maria, a military veteran, on the show to talk about her lifelong trials with the paranormal side of life. Her experiences seemed almost inevitable since birth, when she was born into a lineage of witches that set the course of her life. She has many experiences to share, but one in particular that stands out from the rest is the night Maria witnessed a pack of red eyed demon dogs roaming her military base!

Description:
In episode 759: The Frequency Trap, Tony is joined by Dr. Simeon Hein, a former university professor turned paranormal researcher whose lifelong skepticism toward mainstream science began with a childhood UFO encounter. From studying fractal geometry and chaos theory to exploring the suppressed edges of reality, Dr. Hein explains how remote viewing, radio frequencies, and quantum mechanics reveal a world our institutions refuse to acknowledge. He unpacks how phenomena like solar neutrinos, bleed-through realities, and fractal irregularities explain remote viewing accuracy and why Bigfoot might be both flesh and blood and something else entirely.
This conversation ventures deep into cloaked entities, frequency modulation, and parallel dimensions where cryptids, orbs, and shadow figures operate beyond our limited perception. Dr. Hein shares firsthand accounts of psychokinetic masters in Japan, electromagnetic anomalies tied to cryptid sightings, and why the scientific establishment deliberately avoids high-strangeness data. From government suppression to a changing cultural tide, this episode rips open the hidden architecture of reality, and calls for science to confront what it’s been running from for over a century.

Description:
In episode 758: Secrets Inside The Temple, Tony is joined by Heidi Luv from the Unfiltered Podcast, a woman born into the royal bloodlines of Mormonism who spent decades devoted to the faith—until a cascade of truth shattered everything she thought she knew. Raised in Utah’s Mormon stronghold and married in the temple at just 17, Heidi ascended through the ranks of spiritual rituals, secret oaths, and Masonic rites, believing it was all in service to God. But what began as devotion became a deep unease, and when she set out to prove her born-again mother wrong, she stumbled into a world of secrets the Church hoped no one would ever expose.
In this episode, Heidi unpacks the disturbing symbols, oaths, and occult echoes within the temple ceremony itself, rituals she once participated in, now revealed through a lens of spiritual warfare and painful hindsight. From secret handshakes and fig-leaf aprons given by Lucifer, to kneeling between mirrors she believes served as portals, Heidi peels back the spiritual deception she once called sacred. But her story isn’t just about uncovering darkness, it’s about deliverance. After losing nearly everything, her health, her family, even her daughter, Heidi found God not in a building, but in the quiet places of suffering and surrender. This is more than an exposé of religious control; it’s a testimony of awakening, courage, and redemption.

Description:
In episode 757: Trapped by a Dream Demon, Tony is joined by Kurtis, whose childhood was overshadowed by silent evil and secrets no one dared speak aloud. Raised by a stepfather who rejected him and surrounded by a family that vanished without explanation, Kurtis later discovered he was the target of a generational nightmare, one involving satanic rituals, Masonic rites, and brutal human hunting games in the woods. These weren't random acts of abuse, but orchestrated events tied to secret societies and soul-binding covenants, designed to fracture identity and hand down spiritual bondage.
Kurtis recounts being stalked by dark entities, manipulated through mirror portals, and haunted by a cloaked figure he calls the “Dark Man.” But even amid the trauma, the grip of evil begins to break. Through visions, spiritual warfare, and divine intervention, Kurtis fights to reclaim what was stolen and expose the system that tried to destroy him. This episode isn’t just a tale of survival, it’s a war story from the frontlines of generational deliverance.

Description:
In episode 756: Second Heaven Soul Hunters, Tony is joined once again by Dan Duval for a mind-bending conversation that rips the veil off the unseen realm, and what’s bleeding through it. This episode dives headfirst into the mystery of the second heaven, the spiritual dimension that lies between Earth and Heaven, and the ancient war that still echoes into our present. Dan unpacks the biblical concept of Arche, the realm of beginnings, and how our spirits existed in God before conception. But with that revelation comes a stunning possibility: many are born already in bondage, tied to soul trades, pre-Adamic trauma, and cosmic conspiracies that predate Eden itself.
Together, Tony and Dan unravel real accounts of soul hunting, time travel-induced soul fragmentation, and the second heaven’s connection to extraterrestrial phenomena. From hidden labs and off-planet abductions to spiritual generals fighting pre-Adamic wars against counterfeit creation templates like the Kabbalistic Tree of Life, nothing is off the table. They explore how rituals, timelines, and interdimensional warfare all collide in the effort to break cycles of trauma through the blood of Jesus.
This isn’t fringe—it’s frontline.

It started around age six, when a towering gray-skinned demon appeared in his home, causing his mother to vanish mid-hallway and plunging him into supernatural terror. As the years went on, this entity returned, appearing in windows, lurking in trees, stalking him like a predator. But Parris wasn't just being haunted, he was being recruited.
As his faith deepened, so did the enemy’s attacks. From being named by the spirit of Apollyon in a dream that left physical marks, to being paralyzed and choked by a shadowy figure during a Florida vacation, Parris recounts a life of spiritual warfare that blurred the lines between dreams and reality. Yet amid the darkness, divine encounters lit the path. Towering angels clothed in white, heavenly singing that drowned out the demonic lies, and a revelation of authority in Christ changed the game. This is more than a story about nightmares; It’s a testimony of how heaven moves when hell tries to mark you—and how light always exposes the shadow.

In episode 754: The NDE Conspiracy, Tony is joined by Shaun Tabatt, author of The NDE Conspiracy, for a deep-dive into the strange, murky realm of near-death experiences—and the sinister deceptions hiding behind the light. What begins as a discussion about NDEs quickly spirals into a multi-layered exposé on spiritual hijacking, second-heaven warfare, and false encounters with “beings of light” that mask a demonic agenda. From children recalling past lives to mediums unknowingly channeling familiar spirits, Shaun reveals how the enemy counterfeits heavenly encounters in order to detour souls into New Age delusion.
But this isn’t just theory—it’s grounded in documented cases, verified out-of-body perceptions, and firsthand accounts of people who died, met their “spirit guide,” and came back with dark, twisted theology. Tony and Shaun connect dots between NDEs, alien abductions, soul-trapping tech, and biblical portals in the second heaven—suggesting that the real battle for our souls may not start after death, but in the space between. In a realm full of lies that look like light, this episode is a reminder that discernment matters—and that truth still breaks through the counterfeit.

In episode 753: Bound by Ancestral Blood, Tony is joined by Rebeca, a woman raised in a Christian household who discovered her faith was rooted in a lie. What began with childhood hauntings, shadows moving, voices whispering, a demon sitting on her bed, spiraled into full-blown spiritual war when her teenage son dropped to all fours and began manifesting. As Rebeca and her husband scrambled for answers, the truth emerged in pieces: her grandmother had made a blood covenant in secret, and the demons weren’t just tormenting, they had been assigned.
The battle that followed brought blood to the surface. Rebeca vomited red during self-deliverance, bled from her nose for minutes during prayer, and heard ancient spirits mock her by name. Her family line, traced to the Basque region and shrouded in occult practices, was marked. And the only way out was through spiritual violence. This isn’t just a story of exorcism. It’s a generational war hiding in the skin of normal life. Because when your bloodline has been claimed by darkness, deliverance isn’t optional—it’s survival.

In episode 752: Born For War In The Unseen Realm, Tony is joined by Mike, who shares a lifetime of chilling encounters that trace back to one fateful Halloween night. As a young boy, Mike had a shocking run-in with a man in a red devil costume; a sinister encounter that seemed harmless at first, until strange changes began taking over his life. From being drawn into dark dreams and blacking out while creating violent drawings, to speaking with mirror entities and losing toys to unseen forces, Mike’s story unfolds into a tapestry of spiritual oppression and eerie visitations.
But the darkness didn’t stop there. Mike details haunting experiences with shadow figures, entities whispering by his bedside, cursed objects, and a bizarre connection to a haunted book that seemed to literally pull him inside its pages. As Tony and Mike dig deeper, the pieces start to fit together; encounters with Lilith, strange ties to Freemasonry, and a chilling family connection to Disney World’s darker secrets all paint a picture of spiritual warfare that began in childhood and escalated into adulthood. It's an episode packed with hauntings, hidden forces, and spiritual battles, and it all started with a simple grab of the wrist.

In episode 751: Soul Under Siege, Tony is joined by Will, an Air Force veteran whose journey from homeschooled innocence to spiritual warfare in Guam is nothing short of chilling. What begins as a standard deployment turns into a battle with unseen forces—entities that invade dreams, drain energy, and whisper lies in the dead of night. From haunted dorm rooms to poltergeist-infested barracks, Will recounts moments where anxiety turned to terror, and normality gave way to the paranormal.
But it gets darker. Will details a horrifying night where something—possibly demonic, possibly technological—attempted to rip his very soul from his body, as if yanking him through a swirling black vortex. Add in a suspiciously haunted mountain hike, a shamanic “good luck” warning, military near-misses with North Korea, and a full-blown spiritual confrontation with a thousand whispering voices—and you’ve got an episode that rips back the veil and stares straight into the abyss. When entities try to override your body and invade your mind, there’s only one name that drives them out.
Because when the spiritual battlefield is your own body—Jesus is your only defense
