After more than a decade of groundbreaking experiments, CERN has officially powered down the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) as scientists begin an ambitious overhaul that will transform it into the High-Luminosity Large Hadron Collider (HL-LHC). While the shutdown marks the end of one chapter in modern physics, it also opens the door to a new era of even more powerful experiments—and, for some, even more questions.

Something strange is happening in East Tennessee, and the stories keep finding their way to one small pizza shop. We’re joined by Eddie from Legends & Lore Pizzeria to share firsthand accounts from customers who claim they’ve encountered Bigfoot, Dogman, black panthers, UFOs, and other unexplained creatures around Highway 411, Madisonville, and the surrounding Tennessee mountains.

Is Disclosure Day actually disclosure or spiritual delusion? We're breaking down the Disclosure Day film with LA Marzulli and Karin Wilkinson: alien disclosure, grey aliens, Roswell, government UFO hearings, abductions, cattle mutilations, Nephilim, fallen angels, and the seed-war narrative. Is Hollywood conditioning the world to accept a spiritual deception dressed up as alien contact? We connect it all to Genesis 3:15 and the biblical supernatural worldview. Live on Slingshot Nation; serious, funny, and a little unhinged as we expose the fake "trust me" alien narrative and point people back to Jesus.

The Backrooms movie finally exposed what lives in liminal spaces. Something real is waiting in the in-between places — and more people are finding it. What are the Backrooms, and what waits inside them? Are they a hidden world within our own? Are they another realm where tangible monsters exist and occasionally come for us? Or are they a bridge zone between two realities, a place where humans accidentally slip through the cracks and encounter the guardians, parasites, or predators of the other side? Maybe the Backrooms are not simply physical spaces at all. Maybe they are a kind of mind bridge, a psychological doorway where human consciousness steps into another realm through the architecture of the mind. Whatever they are, one thing seems clear: they represent liminal space. They are the in-between places. The places that should be empty, but are not. And more people are finding them.

The Pentagon has released a new wave of UFO-related records, adding dozens of documents, images, videos, and audio recordings to the government’s growing public archive on unidentified anomalous phenomena, or UAP. The files were published through the Department of War’s PURSUE portal, the government’s dedicated UFO/UAP transparency site. The latest drop, known as Release 03, includes 53 documents, 10 images, 6 videos, and 3 audio files, bringing fresh attention to a series of strange orb sightings reported in multiple parts of the United States.

East Tennessee has a reputation for strange woods, hidden caves, Bigfoot sightings, Dogman encounters, and unexplained Appalachian legends, but today, we go even deeper. Tony and the Slingshot Nation crew sit down with Ricky to explore bizarre supernatural encounters in the forests of Maryville, Alcoa, Kodak, and the surrounding Tennessee mountains, including a Bigfoot-like creature crawling across a trail on its fingers and toes, possible Dogman activity near the Greenway, eerie cave systems beneath East Tennessee, occult bloodline connections, spiritual warfare, shadow figures, strange knocks on homes, and the chilling idea that something ancient may be moving through the woods after dark. From cryptid sightings to demonic encounters, today we ask one unsettling question: what is really crawling through East Tennessee?

Authorities in New Mexico have identified human remains found in Carson National Forest as those of Melissa Casias, a 54-year-old Los Alamos National Laboratory employee who disappeared in June 2025. New Mexico State Police said Casias was found in the McGaffey Ridge area, roughly six miles from where she was last seen walking alone near State Road 518. A hiker discovered the remains, and investigators reported that a handgun was located nearby. Officials have not yet determined Casias’s cause or time of death, which remains under review by the state Office of the Medical Investigator.

In this Slingshot Nation live show, we dive into the strange wave of green orb and “meteor” activity showing up in the UFO Files, including the bizarre reports of glowing objects seen near active volcanoes. From the green “meteor” that appeared to streak over a volcano, to footage of strange lights hovering, darting, and seemingly disappearing near Mexico’s Popocatépetl, the question becomes harder to ignore. Are we looking at natural phenomena, camera tricks, atmospheric events, or something far more unusual? With new clips circulating online and outlets reporting on claims of volcanic “portals,” UFO activity, and unexplained aerial objects, we are breaking down the footage, the theories, and the bigger pattern behind these sightings. Today, we ask whether these green lights are just meteors burning through the sky, or if they are part of a larger mystery hiding in plain sight.

Officials in the Pennsylvania community have reportedly voted down a controversial proposal that would have transformed the notoriously haunted Pennhurst State Hospital property into a massive AI data center. The plan, announced in early 2025, would have allowed the current owners to sell the site to a developer intending to demolish the existing buildings and replace them with a 1.9-million-square-foot facility. For residents, preservationists, and paranormal enthusiasts, the proposal was alarming from the beginning.

The Pentagon has released a new set of UFO-related materials describing reported sightings of orbs, discs, fireballs and other unidentified objects across roughly 80 years.

The Pentagon has said additional materials will be released on a rolling basis.

Are elite universities hiding something darker beneath the surface? In this episode of Slingshot Nation Live, Tony, Derek, and Jack dig into the strange overlap between Ivy League schools, occult history, secret societies, witchcraft courses, forbidden magic collections, and the possibility of underground mystery schools operating inside America’s most prestigious institutions.

The latest UFO government files drop is being called a “nothing burger,” but why are people ignoring the fact that the FBI and government are still releasing files on UFOs, witnesses, strange light phenomena, Area 51, feline entities, and unexplained craft? Today, we look at the declassified UFO documents, the FBI rendered graphic showing a craft emerging from a burst of light, the alleged “Catman” connection, Enochian UFO technology, and why disclosure may be stranger than people realize.

It’s time again for Creature Feature Friday, and today we’re heading to rural Kentucky for one of the weirdest alleged home invasions in American history: The Hopkinsville Goblins, also known as The Kelly-Hopkinsville Encounter.

On August 21, 1955, a farmhouse near Kelly, Kentucky was reportedly besieged by small, glowing, metallic creatures with huge eyes, long arms, and a disturbing resistance to bullets. Were they aliens, goblins, angry owls, or something stranger? Nobody knows — but the story became one of America’s most famous close-encounter cases. Here are 5 key facts about the Hopkinsville Goblins.

The following written confession was submitted via email: I have heard a several black-eyed children experiences, but that isn't what I experienced. I'll begin at the beginning...I was a police officer for several years. I worked a permanent midnight shift, and for some reason I left work to go home in the middle of the night one night (maybe I was sick or needed to get off early, I don't remember. It was about 30 years ago). I lived about 45 miles from the city I worked in and most of that drive was through very rural areas. As I approached a 4 way stop, I noticed two kids...well, probably closer to teens, in the roadway. . .
