About this episode

When many people think of exorcism and possession, they think of horror novels, films, and other works of fiction. But real-world exorcisms still occur in the modern day. In fact, reports of possession are on the rise. In this today's show, the guys are joined with Ryan Bethea, creator and cohost of The Exorcist Files podcast, to discuss how his show explores modern cases of possession through the experiences of the renowned exorcist Father Carlos Martins.
