S2E5: UFOs, UAPs, & The Cosmic Mirror w/ White Owl Apr 14, 2025

Show notes

UFOs, UAPs, and the Hebrew Zodiac…how are they related? Journey into the mind of the mysterious White Owl as he maps out their relationship to the unseen starting from the encounters of Chris and Ryan Bledsoe and their interactions with the goddess Hathor.

A note of correction from White Owl: "Josephus actually says that the temple curtain contains a depiction of the heavens except for the signs of the zodiac. He connects the 12 loaves and other things in the temple to the planets and the zodiac. The point still stands but it is a little inaccurate."

Satanists - Child Sacrifice - Call To Prayer Mar 13, 2025

Show notes

This is not an episode, but a call to prayer.

Abortion Must Be Abolished

Let this be our prayer - Psalm 3 (ESV):

"1 O Lord, how many are my foes!

Many are rising against me;

2 many are saying of my soul,

“There is no salvation for him in God.” Selah

3 But you, O Lord, are a shield about me,

my glory, and the lifter of my head.

4 I cried aloud to the Lord,

and he answered me from his holy hill. Selah

5 I lay down and slept;

I woke again, for the Lord sustained me.

6 I will not be afraid of many thousands of people

who have set themselves against me all around.

7 Arise, O Lord!

Save me, O my God!

For you strike all my enemies on the cheek;

you break the teeth of the wicked.

8 Salvation belongs to the Lord;

your blessing be on your people! Selah"
