The Sisko & Mike Podcast

They Told Us Not To Question God | Faith, Aliens, & The Truth They Le

We grew up being told not to question God. So we finally did. In this episode, Sisco and Mike are joined by Ernie Lima — a TikTok creator and deep-dive researcher into ancient history, metaphysics, and world religions — for one of the most wide-ranging conversations we've ever had on the show. We start where a lot of us started: Catholic households, rosarios every night, and being shut down every time we asked "but why?" From there the conversation goes places we didn't expect — and we couldn't stop it even if we tried. IN THIS EPISODE: → Growing up Catholic and being told never to question your faith → Why Judaism, Christianity, and Islam are all technically confirming each other — and still at war → The slave Bible: how they removed every part about freedom before handing it to enslaved people → Jesus's missing 20 years — and the theory that he traveled to India and studied Buddhism → The Anunnaki, Planet Nibiru, and whether ancient religions are actually alien origin stories → Atlantis, the Great Flood, and the giants who may have built the megalithic structures we can't explain → How religion has always been used as a political tool — and still is today → Where we all personally landed: spiritual, not religious → And why without wisdom — you're just a puppet GUEST: Ernie Lima TikTok: @ernie.lima Instagram: @philosofil.bear YouTube: @ernie.lima CONNECT WITH US: 🎙️ Instagram: @siskoandmike 📺 YouTube: @siskoandmike 🎧 Listen on Spotify & Apple Podcasts — link in bio 💬 Join the conversation in the comments — we actually read them DISCLAIMER: We are not historians, theologians, or experts of any kind.

Why Adult Relationships Quietly Disappear | Love, Lies & No Closure

Friendships don’t end… They just stop texting back. In this episode we’re back with a continuation of a conversation that clearly wasn’t done. We talk about adult friendships, dating, relationships, ego, honesty, divorce, and why everyone’s “busy” but somehow still scrolling for two hours a night. Life hits fast. Careers, kids, businesses, responsibilities — and before you know it, your circle goes from a whole crew to like… two fools and a group chat that hasn’t been active since 2019. This episode gets real and dumb (as usual). We talk about: • Why adult friendships don’t officially end — they just fade out • Feeling like a bad friend even when you’re just trying to survive life • Ego, pride, and why some friendships never recover • The moment honesty from a friend hurts… but also saves you • Divorce, accountability, and choosing peace over being right • Dating as an adult (and as a parent) with zero time and too many opinions • Being in love with the idea of love instead of the actual person • Validation vs. truth (and why we secretly prefer validation) There’s laughter. There’s uncomfortable honesty. There’s probably a moment where someone should’ve kept their mouth shut — but didn’t. If you’ve ever: • Lost touch with people you swore would always be around • Felt weird reaching out after “too much time” passed • Tried dating as an adult and immediately needed a nap • Realized growth sometimes costs relationships Yeah… this one’s for you. 👇 Drop a comment: Did your friend circle shrink… or did life just get louder?
