Medication, REM Sleep, and Vulnerability

On this episode of Slingshot Nation, Nick walks us through what happened on a piece of property bordering restricted TVA land — a night that began with a strange light in the sky and quickly turned into something far more unsettling. What he describes isn’t just a sighting. It’s an atmosphere shift. Missing time. A massive bipedal presence moving through the trees. Owl sounds that didn’t sound like owls. A scream in the woods that didn’t belong to anything natural. And a growing sense that he wasn’t just observing something — something may have been positioning him there.

But the story doesn’t stop at the property line. Nick talks about the synchronicities that followed, the feeling that the encounter didn’t fully end that night, and the questions that still linger. Was it coincidence? A cluster of unrelated events? Or was there intention behind it? We unpack the timeline, the environment, and the aftermath — and leave space for you to decide what really unfolded in those woods.

Please pray for Tony's wife, Lindsay, as she battles breast cancer. Your prayers make a difference!
