Blurry Creatures

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.

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.
