The Confessionals

On Episode 182: The Gargoyle Guardian, we bring on Jo who has had several encounters with entities throughout her life, including one that she describes as a gargoyle. She walks us through her experiences with these beings and gives her take as to what she believes was really going on. After the interview with Jo, we also play some audio from a live Instagram video Tony recorded last week, where he shared his thoughts about the Jefferey Epstein cover-up.

In Episode 533: Little People, D.U.M.B.'s & Bigfoot of the Smoky Mountains we are joined by author Mary Joyce. When I moved to Tennessee I started talking to locals about what I do and the common experiences popped up of people seeing UFOs and bigfoot but what caught me off guard was the topic of little people. Multiple people have brought up the topic as well as the person to talk to about it all, Mary Joyce. So Mary joins me to talk about her reporting on the topic but also other topics such as bigfoot, deep underground military bases, UFOs, and more.

In Episode 532: Mothers Of Darkness we are joined by Jessie Czebotar who has one of the most unique stories we have ever had on The Confessionals. I stumbled across Jessie's story about 4 years ago on Daniel Duvall's show. She was operating under the pseudonym of Jane. Jessie was born into an Illuminati family bloodline for the Mothers Of Darkness. When she was just a little girl she was hand-picked by Satan himself to be the successor to her grandmother as the head of the order. But God had other plans for her life and she went from being trained up to lead the darkest organization on earth to leading the charge on illuminating the darkness she escaped from.

In Episode 290: Giant Dog In Alaska, we are joined by Jim, who is a military veteran. When Jim was in Afghanistan, he witnessed three men walk into a welding shop and then simply disappear in the middle of it. He also shares numerous stateside experiences, including a recurring event in his life: he seems to continually come across a bizarre dog at certain times, encountering it for the first time while he was in Alaska.

In Episode 531: The Joshua Tree Cult Leader we are joined by James. He reached out after hearing Episode 512: Desert Portal Death Cult because the story being revealed in that episode sounded extremely similar to what he had gone through. James was in charge of soldiers that were getting kicked out of the military and one soldier always stuck out to him more than the others. This soldier lived in a house with other people that would call him "father" and he called them "his children." On an extended weekend, this soldier asked James to take him out to a party in Joshua Tree that had RVs and tents all over which is what was described in episode 512. It turns out we are nearly 100% sure that this location was the exact location from episode 512 but 5 years earlier.

In Episode 530: Surviving MK-ULTRA we are joined by Juliette M. Engel, M.D. As a little girl, Dr. Engel was sold into the CIA program known as MK-Ultra. At 17 years old she escaped and integrated into society with no memories of her childhood. She went on to get her medical degree and start her own practice. As a highly sought-after doctor, she built a reputation for professionalism, and was even one of the first doctors allowed into Russia after the USSR fell in order to help rebuild their medical programs. Her life seemed to be on the path of the successful American dream, until she started to have flashes of memories come back to her, memories of a childhood she didn't recognize. Through a series of events, she started to seek counseling and asked her parents questions about her childhood. In response, her parents essentially told her to kill herself or they were going to disappear forever. Dr. Engel joins The Confessionals to share her life story as she remembers it now and to sound the alarm on the realities of the MK-Ultra program.  Dr. Engel's Books: Sparky – Surviving Sex Magick: https://bit.ly/3JQwfio Angels Over Moscow: Life, Death and Human Trafficking in Russia: https://bit.ly/3JsZPsJ Become a member for AD FREE listening and EXTRA shows: theconfessionalspodcast.com/join Come Meet Tony: 1.

In Episode 529: The Pink Portal Door we are joined by returning guest Melissa. She first appeared in episode 175: It Dragged Me Down The Hall (also it was just rebroadcast as a Reloaded Monday) where she talked about being haunted by an entity her entire life. This entity got so violent that it literally drug her out of bed and down the hallway. She left us off in the first conversation talking about how she believes this thing has attached itself to her son Jack. Today she joins me again to give an update as there are new developments that she would like to share. It seems like the attachment has shifted completely towards Jack and Melissa believes it's because he is special. Jack talks about seeing a pink door that takes him to other places and after knowing what I know now, I believe Jack is describing something that is literally happening. As she is talking in this episode we both hear things moving and speaking into her phone, her dogs act very unhinged and her phone hung up on me multiple times.

In Episode 528: Virginia Mountain Dracula we are joined by Glen. He emailed the show to tell of a wild encounter he had as a child that involved the seemingly dead body of Dracula in the mountains of Virginia. On the surface with the limited information we had in the email, we thought the story was a little far-fetched. But, there were some things in the email that left us thinking there might be something to the story. As he and I started talking he filled in the gaps of information that he left out of the email which made this scenario all the more plausible in my mind. Mainly, his grandfather was a very powerful warlock practicing a very dark and sinister form of black magick.
