Last year, in an episode of Onward, a podcast co-hosted by rightwing activist Catherine Engelbrecht, Phillips said his car was “lifted up” while driving and he was transported 40 miles away into a ditch near a church. In the same episode, he said he was teleported 50 miles away to a Waffle House in Rome, Georgia.
“I was with my boys one time, and I was telling them I was gonna go to Waffle House and get Waffle House. And I ended up at a Waffle House. This was in Georgia, and I end up at a Waffle House like 50 miles away from where I was,” Phillips said.
He added that teleporting is “no fun,” but an “incredible adventure.”
CNN reports that Phillips recently took to social media to further defend that claim, writing, “I know what I experienced,” and “haters gonna hate.”
Phillips appeared to have a Christian explanation, writing, “The Bible has many examples of the power of God.”
