    Inside the New UFO Files: What Did They Actually Release? | Slingshot Nation

    The latest UFO government files drop is being called a “nothing burger,” but why are people ignoring the fact that the FBI and government are still releasing files on UFOs, witnesses, strange light phenomena, Area 51, feline entities, and unexplained craft? Today, we look at the declassified UFO documents, the FBI rendered graphic showing a craft emerging from a burst of light, the alleged “Catman” connection, Enochian UFO technology, and why disclosure may be stranger than people realize. Please pray for Tony's wife, Lindsay, as she battles breast cancer. Your prayers make a difference!

    Ricky joins Tony in studio to share a lifetime of disturbing encounters that seem tied to his family’s occult past. He begins with a chilling childhood experience during a blackout in NYC, where something impossible appeared inside his apartment. Years later, his curiosity led him into the woods, where a ritual involving blood brought him face to face with a massive black dogman. As the stories unfold, Tony and Ricky explore whether these encounters were random events or part of a deeper spiritual pattern. This episode dives into dogman encounters, bloodline curses, portals, and the dark forces that may follow families for generations. Please pray for Tony's wife, Lindsay, as she battles breast cancer.

    861: The Second Heaven Nearly Took Everything

    What if the healing you were chasing was the doorway the enemy used to get in? Christa Black shares how a search for healing led her into New Age practices, plant medicine ceremonies, and encounters she later recognized as dangerous spiritual agreements. What began as peace, synchronicity, and apparent breakthrough slowly opened the door to deception, entities, and what she describes as second heaven activity. She explains how defiled timelines, false healing, ayahuasca, tarot, and manifestation pulled her deeper into a spiritual realm she did not understand. As everything began to collapse, Krista realized the same supernatural world she thought was helping her was actually taking ground in her life. But in the wreckage, Jesus met her again and began redeeming what the second heaven nearly took. Please pray for Tony's wife, Lindsay, as she battles breast cancer. Your prayers make a difference!

    RELOADED | 603: The Bridgewater Triangle Pukwudgies

    In Episode 603: The Bridgewater Triangle Pukwudgies, our guest is Phill Anderson, also known as "Exploring With Phill." Joining us in the studio, Phill takes us into the latest findings from his investigations within the Bridgewater Triangle. His focus centers on encounters with Pukwudgies and other supernatural entities deeply rooted in Native American folklore, specifically within the Wampanoag traditions. Phill recounts his experiences in locations such as Elkmont and the mysterious Hockomock Swamp. Throughout the conversation between Tony and Phill, they explore the intriguing possibility that Pukwudgies may have origins tied to magicians or angels. Initially leaning toward the concept of human or magician creation, particularly through alchemical processes, Phill's perspective takes a twist during a recent Hockomock Swamp investigation. Revelations from a spirit box suggest a connection between Pukwudgies and angels, hinting at a potential link to fallen angels. The dialogue further gets into the notion of Pukwudgies being under the control or ownership of these supernatural entities. Expressions like "he's the owner" and "hold the leash" are discussed, implying a certain level of authority or influence wielded by angels over these Pukwudgies.

    I Was in the Pastor Alien Disclosure Meeting… It’s Real, But Not What You Think | Slingshot Nation

    I was part of the pastor alien disclosure meeting everyone is talking about, and there is a lot people are getting wrong. This was not a secret government meeting. It was a private Christian intelligence effort to better understand what is really happening behind disclosure, the technology involved, and the spiritual deception surrounding the alien narrative. Today, I’m sharing what actually happened, why pastors were involved, and why I believe this conversation matters for the church right now.

    What if UFO disclosure is not revealing aliens, but exposing something ancient that has been working behind the scenes all along? In this episode, Tony is joined by Darren Stott, pastor of Eden Church near Seattle, for a conversation on disclosure, fallen angel technology, portals of darkness, and the spiritual war unfolding through the UFO phenomenon. Darren and Tony discuss why “aliens” may be better understood through a biblical supernatural worldview, how technology and principalities may be working together, and why the church needs discernment for what is coming. They also dive into MK-Ultra, missing scientists, government narratives, Bigfoot, shapeshifting shamans, and the dark spiritual systems that may be hiding in plain sight. If disclosure is opening the door to something ancient, the real question is whether the church will recognize the deception before the world welcomes it in.

    859: Bloodline Curses and Spiritual Warfare

    What happens when deliverance ministry stops being theory and becomes a direct confrontation with darkness? In this episode, Mike Brewer shares the encounters that thrust him into a life of deliverance ministry, from his first shocking confrontation with a demon in an Applebee’s parking lot to learning how trauma, occult involvement, bloodline agreements, and hidden spiritual strongholds can keep people bound. Mike walks through the moments that shaped his ministry, including violent manifestations, demonic resistance, supernatural intervention, and the hard-won lessons that taught him deliverance is not about hype, fear, or performance, but about loving people enough to fight for their freedom. As the conversation unfolds, Mike explains how God trained him through real-life encounters, why some deliverances require deeper discernment, and how his ministry has expanded from local sessions in East Tennessee to churches and nations around the world. His stories reveal a sobering reality: the spiritual realm is far more complex than many realize, but the authority of Jesus is greater than every curse, kingdom, and demonic assignment.
