Join podcast veterans Nate Henry and Luke Rodgers as they investigate Bigfoot, Ancient Giants, Cryptids, The Nephilim, The Watchers, Ancient Burial Mounds, Forbidden History, Megaliths, Conspiracy Theories, Dogman, Mothman, The UFO Phenomenon, Extraterrestrials, and The Unexplained.
EP: 419 The Hidden History of the Giants with Gary Wayne
Gary Wayne is back in the basement for round four, and this one is a monster. The author of The Genesis 6 Conspiracy Part I and Part II sits down with us to walk through the taxonomy of post-flood giants, the tribes the church never talks about, and why the Table of Nations has massive holes that point to something the Bible is quietly telling us. We dig into the Raphaim, the Anakim, the Baalim council of gods ruling from Mount Hermon, and how Canaan's curse connects directly to the reemergence of giant bloodlines in the covenant land. Gary breaks...
EP: 418 54 Years of Exorcisms with Dr. Fred Dickason *members only trailer
Dr. Fred Dickason is 99 years old, a World War II vet, and spent over 30 years heading the theology department at Moody Bible Institute, where he literally wrote the textbook on angels. He's also personally counseled more than 350 demonized individuals over the last 54 years and has stories that will stop you in your tracks. A woman came to a conference with a nine-inch blade to kill him and couldn't get past a row of angels that the audience couldn't see. He once placed a demonized man's hands around his own throat and told the spirit to try. It couldn't. He...
EP: 417 We're Having a Good Time with Dusty Slay
Comedian Dusty Slay pulls up a chair in the basement to talk Bigfoot, shadow people, and what it looks like to follow Jesus when you used to pray drunk. From his days selling pesticides and working at Office Depot to headlining theaters and doing the Tonight Show, Dusty opens up about how quitting drinking, leaning into faith, and questioning everything changed the trajectory of his life and his comedy.
The guys get into ghost stories, haunted rental houses, the plagues of Egypt as divine trolling, and why Jesus quoting Psalm 22 on the cross might be the...
EP: 416 Devil in the Masonic Lodge *members only trailer
Samantha's husband was the pastor of their small Ozark town church. Then he stopped coming home, set up an altar in the abandoned Masonic Lodge upstairs, and started physically transforming in front of her: black eyes, green skin, fingernails curling into claws. She saw it at least 20 times over three years. What followed was a brutal season of spiritual warfare where the only thing standing between Samantha and destruction was a 4 a.m. prayer life and a Bible that started speaking to her in code, giving her daily instructions to survive.
Now something else is stirring in the...
EP: 415 Eighteen Days in Heaven with Gabe Poirot
Gabe Poirot died on October 25, 2021, after cracking his skull in half on a Texas road, and for 18 days while his body lay in a coma that doctors said he likely wouldn't survive, his spirit was somewhere else entirely. Gabe sits down with Luke and Nate to walk through his extraordinary near-death experience, from the moment he left his body and was pulled up through the second heaven, teeming with spiritual warfare, to standing face to face with Jesus in the center of a city where every mountain, tree, river, and grain of sand was singing "worthy is the lamb."...
EP: 414 The Sixth Day: Creation, the Fall and the Crucifixion with Rabbi Jason Sobel
It's Good Friday, and we're going deep into the cross, the empty tomb, and the connections hiding in plain sight all over scripture. Messianic Rabbi Jason Sobel, author of "Transformed by the Messiah," sits down to reveal how God encoded the story of redemption from the very first word of Genesis. Rabbi Jason unpacks why Jesus died on the sixth day, the same day man was created and fell, why the veil in the temple was a barrier guarded by cherubim just like the entrance to Eden, and why it tore from top to bottom. He...
EP: 413 Nephilim In The Ozarks with Nicholas Daigle *members only trailer
Nicholas Daigle joins the show to talk about his book Genesis 6 and the Ozarks and the giant rabbit hole he fell into right in his own backyard. What started as a deep read through Genesis turned into a full-blown investigation into old newspaper accounts of seven-foot skeletons, spoke-wheel burials, and out-of-place Aztec pottery found in Ozark caves, all within 30 miles of his front door.
Nick walks us through the finds of Sterling Newberry, a missionary Baptist pastor and amateur archaeologist who uncovered some seriously strange artifacts in the Springfield area in the 1930s, including burial mounds wi...
EP: 412 The Kingdom Manifesto with Brad Gray and Joel Edwards
It's Holy Week, and most of us will say the Lord's Prayer at some point over the next few days without ever really hearing it. Brad Gray, author of "Bringing Heaven Here" and a veteran of over fifteen years of biblical study hiking trips in Israel, joins filmmaker and Evolve Studios founder Joel Edwards in the Blurry Basement to walk through The Lord's Prayer that Jesus gave us and show why it's not a formula or a ritual but a kingdom manifesto. Brad walks through how this prayer functions as a chiasm with "kingdom come" at its center, how...
EP: 411 Breaking the Spirit of Suicide *members only trailer
Ashley's father was not a storyteller. He didn't chase the supernatural, and he wasn't the kind of guy to make things up. So when he told his daughter about the night he encountered a three-foot, gray-skinned, hairless creature standing upright in the road outside the family barn on the Oregon coast, she believed him. The thing had no distinguishable face, moved like nothing natural, and when he followed it into the brush, it seemed to shimmer and phase in and out of visibility. He called it the Hellcat after the trail behind his parents' property, and the story stuck...
EP: 410 The Return of the King with John Bevere
Bestselling author and minister John Bevere joins the basement for a wide-ranging conversation that starts with Nephilim and UFOs and lands squarely on the return of Jesus Christ. John has written 25 books, given away over 65 million resources to pastors in 243 nations, and spent 40 years in ministry, but he had never preached a message on the second coming until recently. He explains why he avoided the topic for decades after the fallout of the 1988 rapture predictions, and what changed when God put it on his heart five years ago to dig into what the Bible actually says. What he found...
EP: 409 The Conspiracy to Rewrite Genesis 6 with Doug Van Dorn *members only trailer
Doug Van Dorn returns to the Blurry Con stage for his third year and delivers what he calls the most important work he's ever presented. Recorded live at Blurry Con 3, Doug walks through a detailed textual case showing how second-century rabbis systematically altered key Old Testament passages to undermine the supernatural worldview of Genesis 6, Psalm 82, Deuteronomy 32, and Psalm 110. He traces how "sons of God" became "sons of the rulers," how "gods" became "the mighty," how 15 words were removed from the Song of Moses, and how the number 70 was strategically swapped for 75 in the genealogies to sever the connection between...
EP: 408 The Flood of Noah: Science and The Bible with Hugh Ross
Astrophysicist and apologist Hugh Ross returns to the blurry basement to talk about his new book, Noah's Flood Revisited, and the case he's making that the Genesis flood account is scientifically credible when read literally and historically. Hugh walks through why he believes the flood was universal to all humanity but not necessarily global in geographic scope, how no Christian scholar explicitly argued for a global flood until the 17th century, and why the Bible itself, in Job, Psalms, and Proverbs, may rule out water covering the entire planet after creation day three. He also unpacks Noah's overlooked role a...
EP: 407 Bigfoot in OHIO? Blurry Creatures X Bigfoot Society
Something is moving through the Ohio woods, and it's not alone. Eight reported Bigfoot sightings in five days have turned a quiet stretch of northeast Ohio into ground zero for the cryptid world, and the story has gone viral. Fox News, Newsweek, NewsNation, and the New York Times, among other major outlets, have all picked up the story.Â
Blurry Creatures and The Bigfoot Society are crossing over for a deep dive into one of the most concentrated and bizarre clusters of Bigfoot activity in recent memory, the Ohio Flap. Multiple witnesses. Unfamiliar sounds. Evidence that doesn't fit the t...
EP: 406 Black Eyed Kids and the Doors We Open *members only trailer
What happens when a self-described atheist builds a career investigating the darkest corners of the paranormal, and something starts following him home? Barry is a writer who tried to launch his career as a paranormal journalist back in the early 2000s and wrote one of the original deep-dive articles on Black Eyed Children for UFO Digest. He was flooded with over 250 emails from people with their own encounters and shares the stories that stuck with him most, including a woman who pulled over to help a homeless person only to lock eyes with completely black eyes, and a Georgia...
EP: 405 Hearing the Holy Spirit with Will Acuff
Will Acuff is a pastor's kid, former rock and roll guitarist, co-founder of Nashville nonprofit Corner to Corner, and author of No Elevator to Everest. He sits down for a conversation about the blurriest member of the Trinity: the Holy Spirit. Will grew up in a theology where the Spirit was, as he puts it, a weird third cousin nobody knew how to engage with. God the Father, God the Son, God the Holy Bible. But a series of life-altering events cracked that framework wide open. He walks through what it practically looks like to develop a rhythm of l...
EP: 404 Sixteen Years with the Dogman *members only trailer
Drew reached out to us with a story he's never told publicly before. A lifelong outdoorsman and hunter from Ohio with a background in criminology, he has had close to two decades of encounters with Dog Man, a bipedal canine creature that most people have never heard of and fewer believe exists. It started with a late-night encounter at his parents' property near Norton, Ohio, where something massive jumped a four-foot fence without touching it, chased the family rooster in circles on two legs, pinned it with a hand the size of a football, and then let it go...
EP: 403 UFOs, Influence Ops, and the End of the Age with Jamie Walden
Jamie Walden doesn't do soft landings. A Marine infantryman who pushed to Baghdad in '03, turned firefighter-paramedic, turned missionary, turned pastor in the shadow of Mesa Verde, Jamie has been consuming and contending with the intersection of the UAP space, intelligence operations, and biblical prophecy for over twenty years. Jamie is deeply connected to a task force of Green Berets and intelligence community operators who are briefing Congress and policymakers on the UAP and NHI space, and he brings a battlefield perspective to what he sees as the most comprehensive influence campaign in human history. He breaks down why 90...
EP: 402 The Heads of the Hydra: Satan, Zeus, Baal, and the War Behind the War with Doug Van Dorn and Dr. Judd Burton *members only trailer
What if the villain of the Bible has been hiding in plain sight across every mythology and empire in history? Doug Van Dorn and Dr. Judd Burton return for a members-only deep dive into the identity of Satan, not as a one-dimensional adversary, but as what Judd calls "the zero with a thousand artifices," an entity who wears different masks in different cultures while remaining the same being at the center. The guys trace him from the accuser in Job to the serpent in Eden, from Baal in the Ugaritic texts to Zeus in Greek myth, from Marduk in...
EP: 401 The Earth Before Adam: Satan's Fall, the Ancient Earth, and the End Game with Ryan Pitterson
Ryan Pitterson is back in the building after 200-plus episodes away, and he came with a bombshell. His third book, The Earth Before Adam, completes the trilogy that began with Judgment of the Nephilim and The Final Nephilim, and it takes us all the way back before the story we thought was the beginning. Ryan lays out the biblical case for the gap theory, arguing that between Genesis 1:1 and 1:2 lies the entire history of Lucifer's angelic kingdom on earth, its corruption, and its catastrophic judgment. Using the original Hebrew, the Septuagint, the Targums, Ezekiel 28, Isaiah 14, Jeremiah 4, and 2 Peter 3, he...
EP: 400 Hell, the 80s, and the Family of God with Kirk Cameron
Kirk Cameron steps into the Blurry Creatures 80s basement for a conversation that covers as much ground as his career has decades. Fresh off the viral firestorm of what he's calling "Hellgate," a father and son discussion on his show that turned into a two and a half hour scholarly roundtable on the nature of hell, Kirk walks us through the debate between eternal conscious torment and conditional immortality, why he thinks the church needs to stop shutting down hard questions, and how Augustine's Greek philosophy may have shaped what most Christians assume the Bible says about the afterlife...
EP: 399 The Horned Creature of Antioch with the Holland Brothers *members only trailer
Three teenagers. A remote island in Middle Tennessee. A Wednesday morning in the summer of '97. Brothers Heath and Hayes Holland and their friend Seth were doing what they always did, exploring Hole in the Wall Island on Percy Priest Lake, when they came face to face with something that defied explanation. Standing by a massive tree was an eight-foot creature with dark fur, horns, a wolf-like snout, snarling teeth, and glowing red eyes. It wasn't a Bigfoot. It wasn't quite a Goatman. And it was staring right at them.
The Holland brothers join us live in studio...
EP: 398 Phobetron and The Age of Monsters with Dr. Judd Burton & Doug Van Dorn
What if the writers of the New Testament were intentionally hijacking the greatest myths of the ancient world to tell the true story of Jesus? Doug Van Dorn and Dr. Judd Burton return to break down the art of biblical subversion, the strategy of entering an opponent's story and retelling it through the lens of the gospel. Luke, the comic book nerd of the apostolic age, filled his two-volume masterwork with deliberate allusions to Homer, Virgil, and Greek mythology, using the very names and narratives his Hellenistic audience would have recognized to show the supremacy of Christ over the...
EP: 397 Project Monarch, Montauk & Mind Control: A Psychologist's Journey into SRA with Dr. Robin Perry Braun
Dr. Robin Perry Braun never wanted to work with satanic ritual abuse survivors; it seemed too dark, too slow, too brutal. But God kept bringing them to her holistic psychology practice. In 2021, she finally surrendered. That's when God revealed something shocking: these aren't just trauma victims barely surviving. The enemy spent their lives programming them as super soldiers for a New World Order through projects like Monarch, MKUltra, and Montauk. Then God, the Master of plot twists, reclaimed them. Once healed, they have spiritual authority to demolish demonic realms and free thousands. They're why darkness is being exposed right...
EP: 396 The Curse of the Cradleboard *members only trailer
What happens when a young family with almost no biblical training gets dropped into one of the most spiritually active places on the planet? Darcy and her daughter Kristen share their firsthand account of life as missionaries on the Navajo reservation during the 1970s and 80s. Their incredible story that includes dark apparitions, physical demonic attacks, skinwalker activity, witchcraft aimed directly at their infant son, and a series of divine interventions that feel straight out of the book of Acts.

EP: 395 Bending the Continuum: Time Travel with Troy Brewer
Pastor, author, and child rescuer Troy Brewer joins us to explore one of the most mind-bending topics in Scripture—time travel and the redemption of your timeline. Troy walks us through the biblical framework for understanding how God, who exists outside of time, space, and matter, can reach into any moment of our lives to bring healing and transformation. He dismantles the idea that we are prisoners of a linear timeline. Drawing from the very first verse of Genesis, Brewer explains how time, space, and matter exist in a perfect continuum that God, as the Creator, is not subject to...
EP: 394 Canada's Worst Demonic Possession Case: A Survivor's Story with Michael Gagliardi *members only trailer
Michael Gagliardi joins us in the basement to share his harrowing true story of growing up with a demonically possessed mother in a small town in Ontario, Canada. From age three, Michael witnessed his mother's terrifying transformation as demonic forces took complete control over the next twelve years. Broken teeth, black eyes, guttural voices, and inhuman strength became the norm in a household where Michael was isolated and starving while his father worked hours away. He survived by sleeping with a hockey stick and barricading his door each night against a woman who had become unrecognizable.
...
EP: 393 The True Story Behind The Conjuring with Chad Hayes
Chad Hayes and his brother Carey wrote The Conjuring—a film with no sex, no blood, and two Christians as the heroes. It became one of the highest-grossing horror films of all time. What most people don't know is that the supernatural events didn't stop when the cameras turned off. Strange voices interrupted phone calls with Lorraine Warren. Objects moved on their own in the artifacts room. Chad's son fled the set after something started operating by itself in the dark. And that was just the beginning.
In this episode, Chad shares what Lorraine Warren was really like, the...
EP: 392 Hooded Figures on the Blue Ridge *members only trailer
Halloween night, 2001. A blue moon hangs over Virginia, a celestial event so rare it only occurs a handful of times per century. Seth, a young man wrestling with his faith and freshly removed from Liberty University, decides on a whim to drive out to the Blue Ridge Parkway alone. No plan, no destination, just a quiet stretch of road under a perfect, cloudless sky. He pulls into an empty turnout, not a single car in sight, and figures, why not take a night hike? The trail is short, the visibility through the trees is crystal clear, and he settles...
EP: 391 The Age of Disclosure with Timothy Alberino
Timothy Alberino is back in the basement, and this time the conversation is pointed. With the release of the documentary Age of Disclosure and a Spielberg film on the horizon, the UFO topic is no longer fringe. It's congressional. It's mainstream. And according to Tim, it's something the Church desperately needs to engage with rather than dismiss. He breaks down the difference between contactees and abductees, why the "it's all demons" explanation doesn't hold up under scrutiny, and what's really going on with the Collins Elite, a group of evangelical Christians inside the Pentagon actively working to block disclosure be...
EP: 390 Terror in the Treehouse *members only trailer
It's 2009 in Fairview, North Carolina. Two teenage cousins are hanging out in a treehouse ten feet off the ground, stereo playing Elton John's "Benny and the Jets" into the cool fall night. Then, right around the third "Benny," time seems to stop. A massive finger, easily twelve inches long and covered in matted gray-brown fur with a thick black talon, slides through the cracks in the floorboards. Not frantically. Methodically. Back and forth. Whatever was attached to that finger was standing on the ground below, which means this thing had to be enormous. The boys froze, paralyzed by a...
EP: 389 Where Heaven Meets Earth with NT Wright
What if the entire goal of the gospel isn't to escape earth but to bring heaven crashing into it? One of the greatest living theologians, author of over 80 books, former Bishop of Durham, and a scholar whose work has shaped how millions understand Paul and the early church, N.T. Wright sat down with us to talk about his new book, The Vision of Ephesians.  We delve deeply into Paul's letter to Ephesus, which is filled with the kind of cosmic, spiritual warfare content that most churches tend to gloss over. Tom walks us through what it actually means to b...
EP: 388 Nephilim Kings and the Fourth Industrial Age with Ali Siadatan *members only trailer
Ali Siadatan returns to unpack one of the most loaded statements in Scripture: "As it was in the days of Noah, so shall it be at the coming of the Son of Man." But what if Jesus wasn't simply warning about moral decay? Ali argues that Christ's first-century Jewish audience would have understood Him to be pointing to a specific biblical age — one marked by the sons of God descending to earth, passing forbidden knowledge to humanity, and establishing Nephilim kings over an advanced civilization. That world was Atlantis before the flood wiped it from history. And according to th...
EP: 387 UFO Crash Retrievals and Dark Matter with Dr. Matthew Szydagis
A piece of metal lands on a physicist's desk. The claim? It was recovered from a UFO crash site. Most scientists would laugh it off, but Dr. Matthew Szydagis takes it to his lab and fires up the spectrometer. Matthew is a unicorn in this space, a Christian experimental physicist who explores dark matter by day and tests alleged extraterrestrial materials on the side. He's worked with Nimitz witness Gary Voorhis, appeared on UFO documentaries, and catches flak from both atheist colleagues who mock his faith and Christians who think he's chasing demons. He doesn't care. His mission is...
EP: 386 A Farmhouse and Something Else… *members only trailer
An old farmhouse in the Ozarks. A newly adopted son with unexplainable nightmares. Voices telling children to ride their bikes onto the highway. Manifestations at 3 am. A dark figure with red eyes. And a portal beneath the hallway floor. Susanna's family moved into a house that had sat vacant for over a year, with previous owners' clothes still hanging in the closets, family photos abandoned in the chicken coop. She didn't think much of it. Not everything is spiritual, right? Then she went to a prayer retreat, women prayed protection over her, and she came home able to see...
EP: 385 Magick, Mediums and Mermaids with Jess Phoenix
Jess Phoenix was a professional witch with a massive online following when things started unraveling—mental torment, sleep paralysis, her children being harassed by spirits, and a growing sense that something was deeply wrong. Then came the C-section that nearly killed her. She lost three and a half liters of blood, left her body, and heard a voice say, "Believe me now." She survived, but didn't convert—not yet. Months later, consumed by rage after being betrayed, she sat at a table covered in bones doing the darkest magic she'd ever attempted. That's when a light walked into her room...
EP: 384 Decoding the Star: How Pagan Astrologers Found the Jewish Messiah *members only trailer
The Magi weren't reading Daniel. They weren't studying the prophets. They were reading the sky.
In our Members-Only Part 2 of our Christmas deep dive into the Star of Bethlehem, Caleb Jones returns to answer the question everyone's been asking: Why did the Magi know to come? What did they actually see in that chart that made them pack up and travel for months?
Using ancient sources—Ptolemy, Manilius, Vettius Valens—Caleb reconstructs what an astrological reading of August 12, 3 BC would have looked like. The verdict? A heaven-blessed birth in Palestine. Incredible fortune. Warfare and a sword in his...
EP: 383 The True Star of the Magi with Caleb Jones
What was the Star of Bethlehem? A miraculous light? An angel? A comet? Attorney and biblical researcher Caleb Jones brings a library of books and years of astronomical study to the basement to present the most compelling answer we've ever heard: the Star of the Magi was the combined light of Jupiter and Venus merging into a single point of light in the sky, not once, but twice.
On August 12, 3 BC, a rare planetary conjunction appeared in the eastern sky for just ninety minutes before dawn and was visible only to those whose job it was to watch...
EP: 382 Trauma, Demons, Epstein and the Evil of Men's Hearts with Fern And Audrey *members only trailer
Fern and Audrey are back, and they're not pulling punches. After 30 years of working with survivors of satanic ritual abuse and trauma-based mind control, they've seen the church get it wrong over and over—rushing to deliverance while ignoring the broken human sitting in front of them. In this episode, they explain why that approach fails, what real healing looks like, and how to tell the difference between a demon and a dissociated part of someone's fractured mind.
They also drop a bombshell:Â in 2015, they handed evidence of Epstein's Island to the FBI, and watched it disappear into the...
EP: 381 The Cosmic Mountain: Eden, Sinai, and the War for Sacred Space with Dr. Joel Muddamalle
Get the new book here! https://amzn.to/3YCch1g
What if the key to understanding the Bible's supernatural storyline has been hiding in plain sight—on every mountain peak from Genesis to Revelation?
Dr. Joel Muddamalle returns to break down the cosmic mountain motif: an ancient Near Eastern concept that shaped how the Hebrews understood everything from Eden to the temple to the final battle. Mountains weren't hiking destinations—they were portals. Meeting places. Contested territory between Yahweh and the rebellious sons of God.
In this episode, we explore why Eden was...
EP: 380 Seeing in the Spirit: Angels, Demons, and Everything In Between *members only trailer
She's seen demons lined up like an army. Angels 60 feet tall. Jesus himself, standing in a backyard with a toddler. Britt Holland is a seer, and she's been seeing things since childhood—long before she had any framework to understand it. In this episode, Britt shares her full story: prophetic dreams that came true, a vision of the crucifixion at 17, years of seeing in the spirit realm, and the dangerous season when meditation practices opened doors she didn't mean to open. She encountered false Jesuses with fangs. Witches astrally projecting into her room. A mimicking spirit impersonating her husband.
