• Members Preview | 751: Soul Under Siege

  In episode 751: Soul Under Siege, Tony is joined by Will, an Air Force veteran whose journey from homeschooled innocence to spiritual warfare in Guam is nothing short of chilling. What begins as a standard deployment turns into a battle with unseen forces—entities that invade dreams, drain energy, and whisper lies in the dead of night. From haunted dorm rooms to poltergeist-infested barracks, Will recounts moments where anxiety turned to terror, and normality gave way to the paranormal. But it gets darker. Will details a horrifying night where something—possibly demonic, possibly technological—attempted to rip his very soul from his body, as if yanking him through a swirling black vortex. Add in a suspiciously haunted mountain hike, a shamanic “good luck” warning, military near-misses with North Korea, and a full-blown spiritual confrontation with a thousand whispering voices—and you’ve got an episode that rips back the veil and stares straight into the abyss. When entities try to override your body and invade your mind, there’s only one name that drives them out. Because when the spiritual battlefield is your own body—Jesus is your only defense Become a member for ad-free listening, extra shows, and exclusive access to our social media app: theconfessionalspodcast.com/join The Confessionals Social Network App: Apple Store: https://apple.co/3UxhPrh Google Play: https://bit.ly/43mk8kZ My New YouTube Channel Merkel IRL: @merkelIRL My First Sermon: Unseen Battles Sasquatch and The Missing Man: merkelfilms.com Merkel Media Apparel: merkmerch.com SPONSORS SIMPLISAFE TODAY: simplisafe.com/confessionals CONNECT WITH US Website: www.theconfessionalspodcast.com Email: [email protected] MAILING ADDRESS: Merkel Media 257 N.

• 750: Killing Nephilim For Jesus

  In episode 750: Killing Nephilim For Jesus, Tony is joined in-studio by Derek and Jack for a freewheeling conversation that crashes through end-times prophecy, remote viewing, ancient relics, and spiritual warfare. From the death of the pope and the mysterious prophecy of St. Malachy to CIA documents on the Ark of the Covenant, they connect the dots between esoteric threads and biblical foundations—asking what it all means for the times we're living in. But it doesn’t stop there. They dive into a full-on battle plan for fighting Nephilim in the apocalypse—complete with Marvel-style powers, biblical superhuman feats, and an AI-generated naming ceremony for their end-times alter-egos. It’s unfiltered, unscripted, and undeniably supernatural. Because when the veil starts to thin, you’d better be armed—with truth, with faith, and maybe even a Nephilim Blaster 2000.

• RELOADED | 426: Police Officer's Paranormal Life

  In Episode 426: Police Officer's Paranormal Life, we are joined by Dave. Dave doesn't listen to The Confessionals and didn't know he was scheduled for an interview until a few weeks beforehand when his wife Brandy sprung it on him! Even though he wasn't prepared to tell his experiences, Dave didn't disappoint. He begins his story by revealing that his ancestor, Bridget Bishop, was the first person executed for witchcraft during the Salem witch trials in 1692. Considering that this family history could be a reason for the paranormal experiences in his life, Dave goes on to tell us about Hatman, his experiences on duty as a police officer, and even his strange relationship with electronics, in which he seems to drain them of all their energy.

• Members Preview | 749: The Night The Sky Split Open

  In episode 749: The Night The Sky Split Open, Tony is joined by Shlomo, whose life has been a relentless collision between light and darkness. It began when, at just five years old, he prayed, and the sky split open. A glowing vertical slit, like a scroll unraveling above him, lit up the town until sunrise. That moment marked the start of a life encountered by the supernatural. Raised Catholic but surrounded by generational witchcraft, Shlomo fell deep into occultism: Ouija boards, summoning rituals, and shadow entities followed him from the Philippines to Australia. He faced poltergeists, witch doctors, and demonic figures that targeted his family for years. By the time he hit American soil, the darkness had a grip, and prison seemed like the final stop. But God wasn’t done. A glowing woman appeared on a stormy night. A voice asked him what he’d done with his life. A radiant being hovered in the sky. These divine encounters weren’t dreams, they were rescue missions. And each one pulled him closer to a radical transformation. Because sometimes, when the veil is ripped wide open… it’s not just to show you what’s out there. It’s to pull you out of it.

• 748: Alien Pregnancy Rituals

  In episode 748: Alien Pregnancy Rituals, Tony is joined by researcher Nathaniel Gillis, who peels back the layers on a phenomenon darker and more complex than traditional demonology. Rooted in his own childhood encounter with a ghostly little girl, Nathaniel’s journey has taken him deep into the realms of incubi case studies, ritual magick, and the disturbing mechanics of hybridization. He presents a chilling theory: certain entities are not just spiritual forces—they are part of a hidden, embodied species that self-replicates by inseminating human women, implanting their consciousness into fetuses, and harvesting them through a ritualistic cycle that mirrors ancient necromantic practices. As the conversation unfolds, Nathaniel connects these practices to historical demonology, the UFO phenomenon, and even modern government experiments involving meta-materials and ritual conjuring. With accounts of dream-state inseminations, sigils surfacing on skin, and beings who wear the faces of lost loved ones, this episode explores how the lines between magic, technology, and theology are far more blurred than we’ve been led to believe. Because according to Nathaniel, these aren’t just hauntings or possessions—they’re calculated, ritualistic acts of spiritual parasitism. And they’re not coming. They’re already here.
