    Members Preview | 866: Investigating The CIA’s Gateway Process Document

    In this members episode, Tony, Derek, and Jack dig into a declassified CIA document centered on the Gateway Process, Hemi-Sync, and the Monroe Institute. What begins as a strange government study on consciousness quickly becomes a deeper conversation about out-of-body experiences, altered states, and the attempt to explain occult practices through scientific language. We break down how the document describes the mind, frequency, hypnosis, meditation, and the possibility of moving consciousness beyond the body. The discussion also explores how these ideas connect to astral projection, the search for hidden knowledge, and the dangers of opening doors that should remain closed. As the conversation unfolds, the Gateway Process begins to look less like harmless meditation and more like a spiritual experiment wrapped in government terminology. We examine whether this research points to a coming deception that reframes the supernatural as science. From the Monroe Institute to the CIA’s interest in consciousness, this episode raises serious questions about what was really being studied and why. Please pray for Tony's wife, Lindsay, as she battles breast cancer. Your prayers make a difference!

    865: De-Programmer Exposes the Dark Networks Targeting Christians

    What happens when the church refuses to face the war hiding in plain sight?In this episode, Christina joins Tony to expose the front lines of spiritual warfare, where abuse survivors, MK Ultra programming, occult systems, and religious deception collide. Drawing from years of work in deliverance, intercession, crisis intervention, and survivor support, she explains how trauma can fracture people in ways the enemy exploits. Christina shares how God called her into strategic warfare for survivors of ritual abuse, mind control, and generational bondage. She also warns that many victims are trapped inside systems that look religious on the surface but are operating through control, sorcery, and abuse. This conversation goes deep into the battle for the children, the corruption hidden in churches and institutions, and the urgent need for discernment in the body of Christ. Christina’s work is not theoretical, it is a fight for those who have been shattered, silenced, and spiritually hunted. Please pray for Tony's wife, Lindsay, as she battles breast cancer.

    Are Elite Universities Hiding an Occult Underworld? | Slingshot Nation

    Are elite universities hiding something darker beneath the surface? In this episode of Slingshot Nation Live, Tony, Derek, and Jack dig into the strange overlap between Ivy League schools, occult history, secret societies, witchcraft courses, forbidden magic collections, and the possibility of underground mystery schools operating inside America’s most prestigious institutions. From Harvard’s divination and prophecy course to Yale’s occult archives, Skull and Bones, Scroll and Key, Wolf’s Head, alchemy manuscripts, secret societies, witch covens, portal lore, and even stories of werewolf spirits connected to Ivy League academia, this conversation asks a wild but important question: are these universities simply preserving history, or are they gateways into something much deeper? The discussion also connects pop culture shows like The Order, Wednesday, and other witchcraft-driven stories to real-world patterns involving elite schools, occult symbolism, spiritual warfare, and the war between the seen and unseen. Is the Ivy League just education, or is it also a front for hidden occult networks, secret rituals, and modern mystery schools? Please pray for Tony's wife, Lindsay, as she battles breast cancer.

    Members Preview | 864: Missing Scientists and Hidden Programs

    A disturbing pattern has emerged around a growing list of missing and dead scientists who reportedly held clearances or worked in sensitive fields. In this members episode, Tony, Derek, and Jack examine whether these cases are isolated tragedies or pieces of a much larger operation hidden behind government secrecy. The conversation moves through Huntsville, JPL, Los Alamos, Wright-Patterson, anti-gravity research, nuclear secrecy, UAP disclosure, and the possibility that some discoveries were never meant to reach the public. As the dots begin to connect, the question becomes less about coincidence and more about control. Were these scientists silenced because of what they knew, what they saw, or what they were helping build? This raw discussion pushes into the tension between classified technology, spiritual deception, and the need to stay anchored in Christ while staring into the darkness.

    863: This Pastor Cast Out a Werewolf Spirit | Pastor Dave Bryan

    What happens when a pastor encounters the werewolf legends rooted in real spiritual warfare?In this episode, Tony sits down with Pastor Dave Bryan, from The Church of Glad Tidings in California, for a mind-bending conversation about deliverance, demonic oppression, and the supernatural realities many churches refuse to confront. Dave shares the chilling story of an Ivy League professor who claimed a witchcraft ritual invited a werewolf spirit into his life. What began as a teaching on Nebuchadnezzar’s beastly transformation became a private deliverance encounter that Dave says changed the man’s life. They also discuss spiritual warfare, the unseen realm, and why Western Christianity often struggles to believe the Bible’s strangest stories. This episode pulls back the curtain on a world where darkness is real, but the authority of Jesus Christ is greater. Please pray for Tony's wife, Lindsay, as she battles breast cancer.

    RELOADED | 442: The Bigfoot Summoner

    In Episode 442: The Bigfoot Summoner, we speak with Terence, who recently had a live TikTok video of himself throat singing in the forest go viral. In the video, Terence was illustrating how his throat singing talent brought a deer out of the trees to observe him. But what he initially missed on camera is that there was more than just a deer and himself present at the time. He was quickly informed through comments on the video that there was a much larger creature lurking in the background. He tells us about this experience in the woods and what he makes of it, and we take a deeper dive into Terence’s spiritual believes, which give him a unique take on about “bigfoot” might be.
