OT 464: The Bigfoot, The Witch, and The Dogman

In Episode 464: The Bigfoot, The Witch, and The Dogman we are joined by Erick Szilagyi from the uNcomfortable podcast. Erick was connected to me by Joel from VanTesla who's been on Erick's show several times. Erick comes to the table with many experiences to share but it was his experience with a witch which we start this show. Erick was just starting out his podcast and got connected to a witch that was willing to come on his show for a conversation. Erick and she decided to meet up in person to do this recording and that turned into dinner plus more. What ensues from dinner Erick describes as one of the most bizarre nights of his life. Bigfoot coming close to where they were, unexplainable vocalizations, unnatural hyper-sexualized tensions, dogman guarding the witch, and the witch herself physically transforming before Erick's eyes. Needless to say, this was a jaw-dropping story and it took up this entire episode. With that said we decided to do an Overtime segment that lasted almost three hours for members. Erick shares all his other experiences and they are just as bizarre as the first hour, including, the last hour where he shares a story that is so personally sensitive for him that we can't speak or even hint about it publicly.

OT 454: The Inverted World

In Episode 454: The Inverted World we are joined by Ashleigh from Australia for a two-part overtime episode. She has had a life filled with the paranormal and bizarre. From "scribbled men" and the "black doorman", to out-of-body experiences, to what I thought at first was a dogman but now with new knowledge I've gained since our recording I believe could have been a rake entity for lack of better terminology. With all these things in her life, Ashleigh has been through a lot. Her most interguing encounter in this first hour is when she slipped into an inverted world where it was this world but different. She describes what she saw and what happened that left me feeling like I was talking to someone straight out of a "Stranger Things" episode!

Tony and I originally connected years ago on episode 91: The Alien Abducted Time Traveler where he became the first guest on The Confessionals to share about his experiences being abducted as a child and put in a secret space program where he was forced into slave labor for 20 years. The catch is that after his 20 years were done, "they" brought him back to earth at the exact same time that they took him. Today, Tony and I hold open and honest conversations about these topics and how they relate to every human on planet earth today.

On Episode 401: Plasma Blue Alien of the Woods, Nathan joins The Confessionals to tell us about a few of his unexplained paranormal experiences – particularly a very strange sight he encountered in the woods. While enjoying a cabin retreat in Idaho, Nathan was sitting outside at the fire one night when he saw a bright flash of light that lit up part of the sky. Following the flash, points of lights started moving out in the woods. Rather than stay put or return back inside, Nathan took off running into the trees to find out where the lights were coming from - and ran straight into an encounter with glowing blue alien-like beings. In an Overtime segment following Episode 401, Nathan continues to share his life stories, including an upsetting time when he came home to find his family gone.

OT 387: Demon Boy

In this overtime show with Emmett recalls a story of being a kids camp counselor and having a week-long experience with a little boy named Zachary. This little boy was at the very least demonically possessed but I personally feel like there is a chance that Zachary may not have been human at all. This story has tons of twists and turns with warlocks, mind control, demons growling and children campers being tormented with fear being just a fraction of what makes this story so bizarre. This is easily a top 5 story we have ever heard on here The Confessionals.

OT 385: Metaphysical Dogman

In episode 385: Metaphysical Dogman we are joined by Josh Turner from Paranormal Round Table. For the better part of a year, the listeners of The Confessionals and Paranormal Round Table have been messaging Josh and me about doing an episode together. About a month ago Josh and I finally connected and decided to do a couple of shows for our prospective audiences. Josh had a dogman encounter when he was a teenager that realigned his life course and what he would be pursuing. What he saw seemed very physical and for years he thought this beast was simply that. A beast that was out there lurking in the shadows. But the more Josh researched and talked to people about their encounters the more he was opened up to the idea that dogman was something more than just a monster that we can't keep up with. But it wasn't until he talked to people that were present during his encounter as a teenager that he learned what he saw and what they saw was very different. It was the information Josh needed to push him over the edge into a new way of thinking about this topic. It wasn't just a physical dogman he was chasing but rather a metaphysical dogman.

Dylin recalls three separate occasions in his childhood where a bigfoot made itself known, but despite three encounters, Dylin still didn’t realize that there was something unique about this property. He even says that he thought he just had a gorilla living on the land in Louisiana! It wasn’t until Dylin was an adult that he locked eyes with something, and understood what was really happening there – and then all the memories from his childhood flashed before his eyes and started making sense.

OT 325: The Underground Reptilians

Episode 325: The Underground Reptilians is a two-part show, with Part Two available as an Overtime segment on the website for members! On this episode, we speak with Brian, who describes growing up near a place in Michigan where reptilians lived underground with other creatures! Brian and I first connected when he left a comment on theconfessionalspodcast.com about his experiences helping to de-program SRA (Satanic Ritually Abused) people. I was interested in bringing him on the show to pick his brain about the process of de-programming in SRA cases, but as we communicated he asked me if I would like to hear about his reptilian stories - of course, I said, "Yes!" As children, Brian and his brother would play with other kids around an area called Witch's Hollow. One day, Brian's brother stumbled upon an opening in the ground that had a dismembered head in the entrance! After contemplating what he saw, his brother decided to return to the location to get another look, and when he did he was met by a reptilian who was manning the entrance. That was the first of many ongoing interactions he had with these creatures, and Brian shares the encounters with us!
