  • And welcome to the second to last episode of season 5! In this one, JJ invited Father Mike Birdsong and his son Deacon Josh, two exorcists from Georgia and frequent contributors to Southern Demonology, to offer their thoughts on the movie Godless: the Eastfield Exorcism. The goal was to showcase the improper methodologies the film depicts in hopes of showing others what an exorcism should never, ever look like. In fact, please consider this a follow-up to our episode The Do's and Don'ts of Exorcism.

  • While we've released Demonology 101, 201, and 301 up to this point, there really hasn't been a dedicated discussion as to what is NOT a demon. In this episode, Chris from the Wandering Road Podcast and JJ take a stab at just that and go over not only some lessons that anyone can use but also take the opportunity to address some of the misinformation that many love to promote, whether that would be through sermons or online. JJ finishes the episode with a quick synopsis of what an demon actually is in order to contrast the rest of the episode.

  • Yes friends, SD Bite!, the series that JJ normally resurrects like an adorable pet zombie for the month of October, is starting early this year (and who knows, it may be here to stay). This time around, JJ was compelled to do a review of the 2023 film Godless: the Eastfield Exorcism and go into all the details as to why this movie is so awful. Join us for some fun deconstructing! #bite #horrorreview #godless #exorcism

  • Welcome back to class with part two of Demonology 301. In this last segment which picks up directly from part one, the hosts not only discuss how one can identify a possessed individual but also how Father Malachai Martin frames the opposition between the preternatural and mortal. Plus, there's a good bit of hypotheticals thrown out to really bring the topic home.

  • Just in time for the new school year, the time has come for you too to head back to class for the third installment of our Demonology series, this time cleverly entitled "Demonology 301." In this episode, Chris from the Wandering Road Podcast and JJ from the Southern Demonology and Paranormal Rundown Podcasts feature the Exorcist Extraordinaire Father Michael Birdsong and his son Deacon Josh to join in on the conversation. This time around, the gang discuss free will and the demonic. In short, the group tries to divine where the idea of free will serving as a barrier to the demonic is derived. In addition to Fr Birdsong's pastoral guidance, JJ intersperses quotations and analysis from Fr Malachai Martin from the famed Hostage to the Devil book.

  • In this episode, we continue on with the second part of Case Files: House on Haunted Hill. This time around, Deacon Josh who led this particular visitation encounters the enemy yet again. In fact, he learns even more about how strong the attachment has gotten to one of the residents of the house. I highly encourage listening to part one first if possible as the interview portion of this episode launches directly into Deacon Josh retelling his experiences.


    I was recently on the Garden of Doom podcast to discuss the Ethiopian Bible. I highly encourage giving that one a listen!

The next episode from the same podcast will feature me once more as I go into details on the Pseudepigrapha.

  • Get ready for the scariest episode that Southern Demonology has ever presented. Welcome to the inaugural episode of Case Files, a new series that depicts real life exorcisms. In this installment, Father Birdsong, a long-standing exorcist, and his son Deacon Josh go for a simple consultation and instead face off with an entity that has the power to physically manifest and turn sunlight into midnight.


    This is the first part of the case where Father Birdsong not only gives a phenomenal explanation of the differences of modern vs classic holy water but also how an emotionally devastating day also saw him confronting an ancient evil. Part two which will release on July 22nd will cover the next visit where Deacon Josh repeats the exorcism of place.

  • In this episode, JJ covers two pieces of shared content that listeners provided, does a mini-review of the TV series Evil, and reflects on the impact of his podcast, Southern Demonology, on his life. He discusses the positive aspects, such as the friendships he has made and the knowledge he has gained. However, he also acknowledges the darkness that has come with it, including health scares and unexplained phenomena. Despite the challenges, he expresses gratitude for the opportunity to help others.

  • Class is back in session! Following up on our Demonology 101 episode, JJ is joined by Chris and Dean from the Wandering Road Podcast yet again to discuss the four stages of demonic influence. They touch on topics such as free will, the influence of demons on human existence, and the role of different religions in understanding demonology. The conversation also explores personal experiences with demonic obsession and the signs that may indicate demonic influence. They explore the signs and symptoms of each stage and the potential causes for attracting demonic influence. They also touch on the idea of spiritual discernment as a way to identify the presence of the infernal. The conversation raises questions about the nature of good and evil, free will, and the role of religion in understanding and combating demonic forces.


    I highly recommending checking out the first episode in this series--Demonology 101--first. However, that is not a hard requirement.

  • In this episode, JJ discusses two recent horror movies, Late Night with the Devil and You'll Never Find Me. Late Night with the Devil received great reviews and was praised for its interesting plot and lack of predictable twists. On the other hand, You'll Never Find Me was criticized for its forced dialogue and lackluster execution. JJ recommends Late Night with the Devil but advises against watching You'll Never Find Me. The episode also serves as a preamble to a conversation with Father Birdsong about the dark and the evil eye.

  • Get ready for a truly chilling tale that will make you think twice about taking a nap. On today's episode, our host JJ goes deep into the nightmarish realm of demonic dream invasions.


    We're talking about visions so vivid and terrifying, they'll make your skin crawl. From a withered demon whisking him away to see the apocalypse up close...to an eight-foot crow beast with spiraling eyes of madness hunting him through non-Euclidean labyrinths.


    Just when you think it can't get any more spine-tingling, JJ gets visited by a trilogy of fresh hell in March 2024. A desert piled with smoldering corpses ruled by a leather-clad demoness who casually flays the skin off his face...a sickly yellow "angel" infecting his very brain...and a multi-headed dragon monstrosity slaughtering people left and right in a sacred church.


    You'll feel the pain and anguish as vividly as he did, all through the terrible magic of dreams. To top it off, you'll hear from religious experts weighing in on whether there are diabolical forces at play.


    Brace yourselves, folks. This one is a true nightmare fueled by over 40 years of chronic nightmares. Sleep with one eye open after this bone-chilling edition!

  • Welcome to the final episode, lucky number 13, of season 4 of Southern Demonology. Not only does JJ detail some of the goodies that season 5 will offer, but he also presents an interview with the listener Elizabeth who goes over how she was underneath the dominion of demonic oppression for decades and how hearing Father Birdsong's iteration of "God is not angry with you" helped her to recognize the predicament and break the cycle. This is definitely a heart wrenching episode that will highlight the depths that the infernal can plunge a person before one can even realize it due to its slow, insidious nature.

  • Christians have created numerous artifacts and and icons in order to help ensure that they get into heaven, but none are as mysterious as the Bandlet of Righteousness (lefAfa Sedeq), the Ethiopian Book of Life. In this episode, JJ runs through the tradition and incantations that make up this amazing work, compares it to protection scrolls created by Ethiopian Orthodox priests that use demonic energy to fuel God's will, and demonstrates some of the aspects that truly make this work magical.

  • Not only does this episode of Southern Demonology continues with the final part of my conversation with Father Birdsong and his son Deacon Josh on the Do's and Don'ts of Exorcism, but it also comes with the very first EVP (Electronic Voice Phenomena) ever captured on this podcast. And it could not be more chilling or disturbing, especially to me as it was captured on my own audio line.

  • While recording an episode of the other podcast to which JJ belongs, the Paranormal Rundown, Father Birdsong recommended having a show dedicated to the Do's and Don'ts of Exorcisms, and I could think of nothing better. What follows is the first part of the conversation wherein we discuss a few of the principles that Father Birdsong outlines in addition to an anecdote from JJ's own life where he demonstrates exactly what one should NEVER do.


    Father Birdsong has started his own podcast entitled Ending the Curse. You can find that on any podcast platform now or at https://shows.acast.com/65615eeed175620012091d66.

  • Dear Southern Demonology listeners: JJ would like to introduce Dr. Bert. He is a medical doctor and psychiatrist from the Netherlands who has been practicing in the field from more than a decade. He agreed to speak to us about several different items. Namely, JJ wanted his input on the movie Nefarious and how was the field of psychiatry was represented in his professional opinion. But that was only the entrance to the doorway as in this conversation, we bounce from that to multiple personality disorder (or the more modern term dissociative personality disorder), to the nature of evil, some of the cases that he has dealt with which exhibit at least mortal evil, and finally some of the more paranormal experiences that he has encountered.
