EP: 422 Her Eyes Turned Black with Ann Barczewski *members only trailer

When Anne Barczewski's six-year-old daughter had a ten-hour seizure and three brain surgeries that removed part of her temporal lobe, the doctors called it medical. When her behavior spiraled into violence, the psychologists called it behavioral. But when Anne was sitting in a grocery store parking lot begging God for answers, she heard two words that changed everything: "I am." That night, her daughter's eyes turned black in front of a Baptist pastor and two deacons, and what followed was years of spiritual warfare that took Anne from knowing nothing about deliverance to becoming an expert in it.This is one of the most Christ-centered and Christ-powered episodes we have had on the show. Anne shares how her daughter was delivered, how her marriage almost fell apart after Rachel passed away at sixteen, and how God turned a soap business into a healing ministry at New Age expos, where witches got saved and blind men got their sight back. She also gets into the theology of unbelief, the difference between inner healing and deliverance, and why some people keep coming back for more deliverance when what they actually need is truth. If you have ever wondered what it looks like when an ordinary person starts doing the stuff Jesus said we would do, this is it. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Dr. Joel Muddamalle joined us in the studio in front of a live audience to tackle a question most churches never even think to ask: what actually happened when Jesus ascended? Joel connects the dots between the final verse of Psalm 82, where Yahweh commands an Elohim to rise and judge the earth, and the moment Christ physically rises into the heavens in front of witnesses. The lexical connections between the Hebrew and Greek are not coincidental. The Ascension is the fulfillment of the cosmic judgment pronounced against the rebellious gods of the nations, and it changes how we understand every use of the words rulers, authorities, and powers in the New Testament.The conversation goes from there into what spiritual warfare actually looks like on this side of the cross. Joel argues that the decisive battle has already been won and the gospel is the announcement riding out to every corner of the battlefield. He unpacks the ambassador language of 2 Corinthians 5, the armor of God as Yahweh's own armor from Isaiah, and why the dark powers today are disarmed cockroaches trying to take as many people down with them as possible before the King returns. This is a live, unscripted, deeply theological hour that also features a Cal Ripken conspiracy theory and a sloppy wet kiss.Dr. Joel's book can be found here: The Unseen Battle: Spiritual Warfare, the Three Rebellions, and Christ’s Victory Over Dark Powers .A live Q&A session was recorded with the audience at the conclusion of this episode and is available for all Blurry Creatures members.

Gaby never planned to leave the trail. She was sick, alone, and wandering near Vernal Fall while her family hiked in Yosemite. When she walked off the trail to photograph a tree, she stepped into something she still cannot fully explain. The forest went quiet. The trees started moving in a gentle, rhythmic dance that felt like an invitation. And for the next four hours, she was somewhere else entirely, though it only felt like two minutes. Her story is one of the most vivid firsthand accounts of the Missing 411 phenomenon we have ever heard, and she is here to tell it because her love for her five-year-old son pulled her back before the door closed behind her. And the photo of the tree that started it all never showed up on her phone.  We unpack Gaby's experience alongside the broader mystery of people vanishing in America's national parks. From time slips and sound vacuums to the role of granite, quartz, and physical ailments, her account checks nearly every box that David Paulides has cataloged over decades of research. She also shares a wild encounter at Sequoia involving massive eyes in the trees and her stepdad's own strange experience at Zion. This is one of those episodes that will make you think twice the next time someone says "stay on the trail." Want to listen to this episode and a catalog of more than 100 other members-only episodes?

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 down 15 years of research, logging scripture, and connecting dots between Hebrew root words, Ugaritic texts, and polytheist accounts that all tell the same story through different lenses. We also go deep on the corruption of all flesh before the flood, chimeras, DNA manipulation, the seven sacred sciences that secret societies trace back to the watchers, and why the knowledge cult that started before the flood is still running the show today through institutions most people never question. Gary unpacks Azazel's connection to the scapegoat ritual, the degradation of angelic beings into satyr gods, interdimensional portals, and what CERN might actually be trying to accomplish. This is a masterclass in biblical giant research.

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 has never been afraid of a demon since his second encounter, and he'll tell you why. Fred walks us through how he stumbled into deliverance ministry as the angelology professor at Moody during the Age of Aquarius, what he's learned about ancestral doorways and why more than 95% of the cases he's seen trace back to generational involvement in the occult, and how Christians have a delegated authority in Christ that most churches have never taught them to use. He also tells us the story of 12 owls on a Navajo reservation that spoke death threats to a new believer, what happened when that man took his authority in Jesus' name, and the fate of the 12 medicine men who sent them.  He explains why demon possession is a mistranslation, why salvation alone doesn't automatically clear demonic ground, and why 95% of the cases he's encountered trace back to ancestral involvement in false religion and the occult. This conversation is a masterclass in spiritual warfare and the spirit world from someone who has been in the trenches for more than half a century, and it's one of the most important episodes we've done.  Want to listen to this episode and a catalog of more than 100 other members-only episodes?

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 greatest callback in history. Dusty also talks about the craft of standup, why comedians became the truth tellers of our generation, why AI can't write jokes, and what it means to be funny in a world that forgot how to laugh.

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 Ozarks. Her parents' rural property has become a hotspot: loud impacts on the house, an unidentifiable shrieking over storm winds, phantom smells of bacon and coffee at 3 a.m., and a night where every animal on the road fled in a mass exodus as Samantha drove home. This one has everything: possession, cryptids, black panthers, spiritual authority, and the raw testimony of the faithfulness of God in the midst of darkness.

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." Jesus showed him the timeline of creation like a cloth, not linear but wrapped up, revealing a pre-Adamic earth, the rebellion of Satan, the dust from which humanity was formed, and the cross where heaven and earth were reconnected. Gabe also describes what he saw in the second heaven, a dimension just behind the visible world where fallen angels, hybrids, and watchers wage a civil war that has been raging since before humans walked the earth. He explains how these entities feed on unforgiveness, manipulate identities, and operate through familiar spirits that most people never detect. But the heart of his story is the overwhelming, inescapable love of Jesus, a love that existed before creation and exploded into existence just to know you by name. Gabe woke up on day 18, fully coherent in a body that should have been a vegetable, with a message from Jesus: tell my family who I really am, I'm coming soon, and I'm coming to get them. His book "18 Days in Heaven" is a #1 seller on Amazon and available now wherever books are sold.

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 traces the Passover lamb from Abraham's near sacrifice of Isaac to the third cup at the Last Seder, and reveals that when Jesus offered Himself on the cross, He had every person who would ever believe in Him in His mind, because no one could eat of the Passover lamb unless the one offering it was thinking of them. Rabbi Jason also shares his extraordinary testimony of encountering Jesus during meditation as a young Jewish man in New Jersey who thought "Christ" was a last name. From the Hebrew letter Vav, shaped like a nail reconnecting heaven and earth on the sixth day, to the number eight representing the supernatural breakthrough of the resurrection, to the tomb and the womb being the same Hebrew word because both are portals, this conversation will transform the way you read the Easter story. - Learn more about your ad choices.

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 with sacrificial bowls, caves with signs of cannibalism, and a solstice alignment connecting a cave and a burial site. Then there's the story of Harry Starlight, an Osage chief who showed up at Newberry's door wanting a bear idol and offering to introduce him to the little people through a fire ritual. Newberry shut it down. The bones? Sent to the Smithsonian. The pottery? Gone. The mounds? Kids are jumping bikes off them. Welcome to the Ozarks and the hidden history of giants in the land.
