    839: Inside India’s Dark Spiritual Realm

    Pastor Troy Brewer and Ben Brewer, from OpenDoor Church in Dallas, Texas, join Tony to pull back the curtain on a ministry that doesn’t just preach freedom, it hunts it down. From funding and executing rescues to stepping into nations where trafficking networks operate in plain sight, they share stories of walking straight into danger to bring people out. Their travels abroad read like something out of a thriller, filled with sudden spiritual confrontations, close calls, and moments where survival hinged on obedience and prayer. Yet behind the intensity is a relentless conviction that Jesus still sets captives free in real time. This episode is a gripping look at faith in action, where the fight against human trafficking is personal, costly, and anything but theoretical. Please pray for Tony's wife, Lindsay, as she battles breast cancer. Your prayers make a difference!

    RELOADED | 373: The Pentagram Under the Stairs

    In Episode 373: The Pentagram Under the Stairs, we are joined by Brooke to discuss some of her wild experiences. Her earliest memory involving the paranormal happened when she was 5 years old and she had an imaginary friend, who in turn had a friend of its own! Brooke has also seen an angel and demons, and once moved into a house where she discovered a pentagram under the stairs. Later in the episode, she shares her experiences with sasquatch which occurred during some extreme hiking, and also describes how her husband's friend Casper passed away, but would sometimes continue to come and visit. Please pray for Tony's wife, Lindsay, as she battles breast cancer. Your prayers make a difference!

    The Hidden Industry Preying on the Vulnerable | Slingshot Nation

    Human trafficking is not a distant problem; it is a global industry operating in plain sight in 2026. We explore how modern trafficking networks function today, the role technology plays in recruitment and exploitation, and why the crime is often harder to detect than people realize. We break down common myths, warning signs, and the systemic factors that allow exploitation to continue. This conversation is about awareness, prevention, and understanding the real mechanisms behind one of the darkest markets in the world.

    Members Preview | 838: The Prince of Persia Is Rising

    Tony is joined by Ali Siadatan, a world-renowned UFO researcher, to recount his 1999 UFO encounter in Iran, which occurred days after he felt led to warn his father about Ezekiel’s prophecy of a future war between Iran and Israel. The sighting of a massive green, pulsating craft descending into the desert became a catalyst for his deeper study of Scripture and the Prince of Persia described in Daniel 10, which he believes connects to territorial spiritual powers over nations. The conversation then turns to present-day Iran, where Ali outlines the growing revolution against the Islamic theocracy and the brutal crackdown that followed. He explains how economic collapse, generational rejection of radical Islam, and the rise of the exiled crown prince have shifted the national atmosphere. With tensions escalating between Iran and Israel, Ali suggests the coming months could determine the nation’s future. Please pray for Tony's wife, Lindsay, as she battles breast cancer.

    837: The Secret Hill Where Autistic Children Meet Jesus

    In this episode, Tony sits down with Joseph Infranco to unpack the claims presented in his book, Decoding Cody, regarding the documented accounts of non-speaking autistic individuals who communicate through spelling. Drawing directly from the book, they examine the description of “the Hill,” a place where participants report meeting Jesus, angels, and one another beyond physical limitation. They explore the fascinating portrayals of spiritual warfare, angelic hierarchy, prayer as incense before God, and the insistence that everything on the Hill worships Christ. They also evaluate the book’s themes of discernment, counterfeit spiritual realms, and the possibility of a thinning veil between worlds. This episode carefully analyzes the book’s claims and wrestles with what they would mean for the Church. Please pray for Tony's wife, Lindsay, as she battles breast cancer.

    Dogman, Missing Time, and the Light in the Woods | Slingshot Nation

    On this episode of Slingshot Nation, Nick walks us through what happened on a piece of property bordering restricted TVA land — a night that began with a strange light in the sky and quickly turned into something far more unsettling. What he describes isn’t just a sighting. It’s an atmosphere shift. Missing time. A massive bipedal presence moving through the trees. Owl sounds that didn’t sound like owls. A scream in the woods that didn’t belong to anything natural. And a growing sense that he wasn’t just observing something — something may have been positioning him there. But the story doesn’t stop at the property line. Nick talks about the synchronicities that followed, the feeling that the encounter didn’t fully end that night, and the questions that still linger. Was it coincidence? A cluster of unrelated events? Or was there intention behind it? We unpack the timeline, the environment, and the aftermath — and leave space for you to decide what really unfolded in those woods. Please pray for Tony's wife, Lindsay, as she battles breast cancer.

    Members Preview | 836: How Epstein Blackmailed Her Into Silence

    Audra Lynn Fasano joins Tony to share her firsthand experience of being drawn into Jeffrey Epstein’s network, beginning with her time at the Playboy Mansion and escalating into blackmail, intelligence ties, and operating as a middleman between elites. She recounts how threats against her family forced her deeper into the web, and why she believes Epstein was only one cog in a much larger machine. The conversation moves beyond trafficking into increasingly dark territory, ritual abuse, bloodline targeting, CRISPR technology, transhumanism, and what Audra sees as a modern Babylonian control system still unfolding today. She connects ancient sites, Nephilim lore, and elite funding networks to current technological initiatives, arguing that the end goal reaches far beyond exploitation. Through it all, Audra emphasizes spiritual warfare, deliverance, and returning to Christ as the only true protection in an escalating battle. This is a sobering discussion about power, deception, and why discernment may be more critical now than ever. Please pray for Tony's wife, Lindsay, as she battles breast cancer.
