This was all circulating around the base that a giant had been killed, but no one was supposed to talk about it. I saw three long, boning fingers, reach up underneath the door, curl up to grab it, and then disappear. Then he came over to me, dude, he slithered over to me. And this giant comes out of the cave and they're all frozen. And he starts running and firing up this giant. But the giant moves, he's got a spear in one hand and he's running really fast. It spears, dan, pulls him up like this.

2:02Somebody else shoot him in the face, shoot him in the face, they basically decap it. Got places, got places, got places, got places, when he's got about 15 yards away from me, I raised that 4 gauge, my blood is head off. I feel something pulling at my leg and I look over and there are two, small, gray, and the teeth pulling at me. And they're literally, I'm getting pulled off of that. I reach my hand into this bush and I touch air, couldn't breathe, and it couldn't move because I know I'm seeing a monster. Welcome to the show where you're listening to the Confessionals podcast.

Either way, which for me just get ahold of me, listen friends, welcome to another members episode. I think it's a different one here for you today because some things kind of transpired over the last several weeks and it all started with me deciding to have a second heaven round table discussion. And I started thinking, you know, this second heaven round table discussion might be something that becomes a legendary recording and it might spawn many other recordings. And after those guys left, Derek, Jack and I had a profound conversation and we decided to record it. We shared that with you last week and going into this week, I started thinking, you know what? I think would be a good idea is if I did a compilation video of, you know, I don't know how to describe

4:08it other than the best of these three guys that came together for the second heaven round table. They've all been on the show before and I thought, you know what, I think it would be good to lay the groundwork so that when we had the second round table going public and the whole world hears this conversation that there is a groundwork laid as to who these guys are and why I felt they were qualified. They're not the only ones qualified. Let's get that straight. There's plenty of people that I think could participate on the second heaven round table. In fact, I have some ideas of future ones where we bring these guys in along with some other people and we rotate seats at the table so that it's like, anyways, I'm not going to get lost in the weeds. I have some ideas with it and I do think that people are going to enjoy it. But I wanted to kind of revisit Hunter, Jade and Caleb today because both the, all three of those guys were on the show before. They all three participated in a round table that I thought was a groundbreaking conversation that people are going to hear. I believe next month in October. Yes, the week of Halloween is when we have a schedule and so leading into that, I wanted

5:12to share a kind of reminiscing going back in time, the time machine to show you why these guys I felt were qualified to do this. And so before we get into that, I just want to remind you guys, go ahead and check out Merck Merch.com for Merkle Meade Paral Needs. We also have coffee in there and I've been seeing people buying a lot of coffee. And so I guess people like it, praise God. And if that interests you, go ahead to Merck Merch.com and get your swag today. Also friends, go ahead and check out my book on Amazon. You can pre-order it right now as the time ticks away towards October 6th when the show or when the show, well, it is the show. I always mess that up. But when the book goes live, the book's going live October 6th, but you can pre-order day on Amazon and that helps me a ton. So the book, if you have not heard about, is the confessionals exposing warring kingdoms. And it's a book that I documented my journey through the supernatural to get to the point

6:12where I am today. I try to lay out the groundwork for that. And actually the second heaven stuff and the second heaven round table of these guys are a big part of that thought process. In fact, one of the guys made it into the book. And so that said, go ahead and check it out at Amazon link in the description of this episode. Or if you want more information, go to theconfessionalsbook.com. We made a website so that kind of gives a little bit more information. And then maybe you'd be more interested in what you already are. All right, friends, thanks for being in advance for all the pre-orders. It's been awesome to see. Now, let's get into the today's show. I want to start off with Hunter because I did a watch along not too long ago with Hunter. And I can't remember if I told you guys that he was going to be on the round table then or not. But Hunter's episode that my first introductory to Hunter was one that shifted my brain entirely when it came to cryptids. If Hunter was what he was saying was true, which I had no doubt that it wasn't, it forced

7:17me to reconsider a lot of things when it came to my thought process on cryptids. What are they? What are we dealing with? And how should we operate around them? And so we did this whole watch along where I kind of watched that episode with you guys as members and really kind of broke down some thought processes along the way. And I thought about doing the same thing for these other two guys, but I thought it might be more fun to do this compilation of clips from these episodes so you can kind of see things. So we're going to get into Hunter and we're not going to do the first episode because Hunter, we already did that one, but Hunter came back for a second episode and we called that episode 632 as the number and it was called echoes of Nephilim bloodlines. And if you are not an OG listener and you kind of stem from the YouTube side of things, I don't number my episodes anymore on YouTube because of algorithms and all that stuff. Like we have to produce the show completely different for YouTube.

8:19But for the last 10 years, my show has been numbered and audio listeners know that we are always numbering. I think we're coming up on the 900th episode. And so that's where that comes from. If you're searching on YouTube for a number, you may not get every number because there is a certain point in time when we had a change production and we no longer number on YouTube. But that's what it's called echoes of Nephilim bloodlines and he shared several things in here. But I'm going to start off with sharing a very emotional experience that I had with Hunter here in studio where this is where it's cemented things where it's like we had Hunter's experience where now we would identify it as second heaven realm where he encountered that dog man and then later a month later manifested in front of him here in Tennessee in the natural and front of his 11 year old son. This is probably a three, four years ago. So he has now a teenager who would recall this story and situation. And one day, I probably will talk to probably talk to his, I'm sorry, I got distracted

9:25there because I caught. I've probably talked to his son at some point about this experience. So I bring him back out for more because he's been having these weird things happening since then. And the one thing that he saved for the end of the show was the most impactful because it involved me and he almost didn't say it. Hunter had another second heaven experience where we believe God pulled him into, I guess the second heaven brought him to my house, showed him my house exactly with the way my house looks, everything. And then he described it and draw it for me. And then he tells me what he saw following me. And this is something I've referred to over the years on the show because it's so impactful for me, but not many people know of where this all came from. And it came from this episode 632, Echoes and Neflin bloodlines. It was a member's episode. And OG members, you've seen this, but there's a lot of newer people who have not. And I think I want to start off this compilation of why I did the second heaven round table

10:27right here with Hunter. So let's get to it. Leading into like my last, I mean, there's a few more things, but it's not really anything big that's happened. But do you remember how it takes to you and I asked you, or I asked you, I think it was back in the summer, maybe like June, July or August. And I told you I had a drink about you. Do you remember that? I do not. So I had this, this, it was one of those like vision dream, whatever you'll call it. Super real. I'm trying to think of how to ask this without... Just ask it, dude. Well, I don't, I don't want to lead you on content answers. Oh, gosh, you got you. Purely sick. Okay, so the number... Does that mean anything to you? You can't talk about this on the show. Oh, okay. The answer is yes.

11:28Oh, okay, okay. Well, long story short, I am at this place and you're there. And this one, I'll tell you about the cloak figures. You don't remember that? You're talking. So there's these like, it's just the house and it's kind of sitting way back from like these other houses. And there's these like cloak looking things that are following you. And that's like... That's all I really remember about it. It was like another time where I just woke up and I was like, God, that was super real, you know? Jack, just the number, the number, or a tattoo. That's my house, bro. That's my house. That's my house number. And my house, it's back off the road.

12:31This is the first time that anybody has ever said anything to me. They have a message for me that has actually followed through on confirmation. And I'm not scared. I'm driven to tears right now because this is the first time I've ever had anybody on my show who says things like, God told me and I didn't have that confirmation. And I live by that. If God didn't tell me first, it is not a real confirmation. The number you said is my house. That's my house number. So I want you to start this story over so I can focus in. Okay. That's not real distracted there. Yeah. And I'm really glad you're here right now. Well, that's like, that's confirmation for me.

13:34I mean, that just lets me know that whatever's happening, like this is, you get what I'm saying. Like, I didn't want to, I didn't want to make it a leading question where you're like, you know, you, where it felt like I was trying to make you say something, you know, that you didn't want to say. You know what I mean? Tell me the story. Tell me the dream again. Yeah, my heart's pounding. Mine too. And have I just tell you, God has been warning me. Get him be ready for spiritual warfare coming. Just last week I interviewed a pastor who had a similar story of being warned spiritual warfare is coming and being given a book to read, to prepare for it.

14:34And he didn't read it for eight years. And then the spiritual warfare came. The person who was warning him and gave him the book was said, said that, God told me. He'd say, hey, mine to it. And then the person, that same person eight years later said, I know you haven't read that book. His God told me and it's starting a week from now and a week later it started that same book that was that he said he was given. Yeah. Has been sitting on my nightstand for two years untouched. And so I just recently started reading it because I felt like it was a sign from God. Yeah. And now you're here telling me this. So. Yeah. And I'm here to hear what you have to say. So in this in this dream, there's, as I could say, it's more of a, of a bits and pieces

15:34kind of thing because this has been eight months ago. And nothing really traumatic happened to me in it. So I didn't really, I didn't think about it that much at the time. And it, like two, three days later, I just takes you and was like, hey, I had this dream. You know, I didn't really think about it. So I am at this house and I'm like at the end of this, it's like a curved road. And at the corner, there's a driveway and there's a house that says back. Exactly.
