  • Are Volcanoes Portals for UFO Activity? | Slingshot Nation

    Are Volcanoes Portals for UFO Activity? | Slingshot Nation
    May 29 2026
    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.Please pray for Tony's wife, Lindsay, as she battles breast cancer.

    Members Preview | 866: Investigating The CIA’s Gateway Process Document
    May 28 2026
    In this members episode, Tony, Derek, and Jack dig into a declassified CIA document centered on the Gateway Process, Hemi-Sync, and the Monroe Institute. What begins as a strange government study on consciousness quickly becomes a deeper conversation about out-of-body experiences, altered states, and the attempt to explain occult practices through scientific language. We break down how the document describes the mind, frequency, hypnosis, meditation, and the possibility of moving consciousness beyond the body. The discussion also explores how these ideas connect to astral projection, the search for hidden knowledge, and the dangers of opening doors that should remain closed. As the conversation unfolds, the Gateway Process begins to look less like harmless meditation and more like a spiritual experiment wrapped in government terminology. We examine whether this research points to a coming deception that reframes the supernatural as science. From the Monroe Institute to the CIA’s interest in consciousness, this episode raises serious questions about what was really being studied and why.Please pray for Tony's wife, Lindsay, as she battles breast cancer.
