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. But it wasn't until he talked to people who were present during his encounter as a teenager that he learned what he saw and what they saw were very different things. 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.

In Episode 384: Fear Me, we are joined by Sarah, who is a stay-at-home mother, and when the family is away during the day, strange things happen.

At one point, Sarah even shouted at the unknown entity to come after her and leave her son alone. To get to the bottom of the unwanted occurrences, Sarah downloaded an app to her phone to try picking up some EVPs, and she certainly caught something – a voice telling her to “Fear me.”

The land he lived on was passed down through his family for generations, and what lived in the woods was not spoken about until there was a reason to speak of them. 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!

After this experience, Matthew’s life spiraled out of control, with unfortunate circumstances seemingly beginning that night, as he describes the effects that going through a paranormal experience can have on a person in the so-called real world.
