Description

Human trafficking is not a distant problem; it is a global industry operating in plain sight in 2026. We explore how modern trafficking networks function today, the role technology plays in recruitment and exploitation, and why the crime is often harder to detect than people realize. We break down common myths, warning signs, and the systemic factors that allow exploitation to continue. This conversation is about awareness, prevention, and understanding the real mechanisms behind one of the darkest markets in the world.

When I was about 10 one December morning I woke up before my younger sister and when she woke up she told me she had a weird dream that felt so real and in her dream she had a Santa hat. I pointed to the floor and asked “that Santa hat??” And she was shocked. At that time we were seventh-day Adventist and didn’t celebrate Christmas so there would be no reason for a Santa hat (or anything Christmas) to be in our home. When you said people have brought things back from dreams I got a flashback about that time. Crazy!

When he says there is not underground stuff, it reminds me of the movie "Eyes Wide Shut." When the rich friend is trying to convince the main character that the elites don't have pple unalived. 😅

Hey Tony, I am a mama and a Nana...I heard what you said about being on Counter. Listen you were created to be who you are by the One who loves you enough to create you! Don't you dare feel bad because you didnt wear a jacket or whatever to match other panelists. One of the main reasons (apart from Jesus) that I watch is because you are real. I am so proud of you! You are doing a great job. Take a breath and wear those flannels and goodies and ball caps or whatever. Lots and love and prayers for you and Lindsey

Tony has inspired me to talk more urgently to my family and friends. I have my youngest brother hooked on this podcast, my brother who's 2 years younger than me started learning about all of this. My mother and father is starting to accept that all of this is real. Now to convince my husband and children.
