Surviving 2.5 Hell Weeks and 6 BUD/S Attempts | Ep. 251 In this episode of the Mike Drop Podcast, John Collins delivers an unfiltered, brutally honest account of what it really takes to become a Navy SEAL—and what happens when the dream nearly dies. This isn't your typical war story. It's about failing hard, facing humiliation, and coming back swinging. Raised by a hard-charging state trooper in small-town Maryland, John always knew structure. What he didn't know was how far he'd have to go—how much he'd have to lose—before finally earning the Trident. From getting dropped at BUD/S to guarding terrorists in Guantanamo Bay, John's journey is a masterclass in grit, redemption, and what it means to serve with purpose even when the path doesn't go according to plan. Through multiple Hell Weeks, soul-crushing setbacks, and years of grinding through Navy politics, John fought like hell to get back into SEAL training. And he made it. But what happened after is just as powerful. From sniper to breacher to K9 handler, to a complete reinvention in civilian life—John proves that purpose doesn't end with a uniform. ---------- Heartland Steak Stock up with a custom steak box or grab a grill-ready bundle —either way, you're getting the best.

The first year of the siege of Leningrad that began in September 1941 marked the opening stage of a 900-day-long struggle for survival that left over a million dead. The capture of the city came tantalizingly close late that year, but Hitler paused to avoid costly urban fighting. Determined to starve Leningrad into submission, what followed was a winter of unimaginable suffering for ordinary citizens and defenders alike. First-hand accounts from Soviet and German soldiers, many never previously published, together with those of the civilians trapped in the city detail the relentless specter of death which defined life in and around Leningrad. Today’s guest is Prit Buttar, author of “To Besiege a City: Leningrad 1941-42.” Personal vignettes give a glimpse into the reality of life in a city under siege. The teenage volunteer climbers, weak from hunger, scaling the slender spire of the Peter and Paul Fortress to shroud it in camouflage as the German bombers circle overhead like vultures. Or the soldier trombonist completing a long day on the front line to perform Shostakovich’s epic Seventh Symphony alongside a starving and sickly orchestra – an act of defiance broadcast to defenders and attackers alike.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Inspired By a True Crime Case: In 1932, the quiet town of Blackwood was shattered when unemployed miner Bernard Gorski brutally murdered three of his children, leaving behind a lone survivor and a trail of haunting questions,THE TRUE CRIME CASE THIS STORY IS BASED ON: In July 1932, the quiet coal-mining borough of Lykens, Pennsylvania, was shaken by a horrifying crime. Barney Godleski, a 31‑year‑old unemployed miner, brutally murdered three of his four children—Paul (8), Lillian (6), and Alberta (4)—in the basement of their East Main Street home. Only 10‑year‑old Helen survived, reportedly because she “kept house” for her father and he was “proud” of her. On the morning of July 14, Helen awoke to find her sister missing and bloodstains on her pillow. Following a trail of blood, she found her father with a self‑inflicted throat wound. At his instruction, she fetched local undertaker James Heldt, to whom Barney confessed his crime. Police arrived to find Barney calmly sitting at the kitchen table with the axe and butcher knife he used for the murders. The children's bodies were discovered in the cellar, one nearly decapitated. Barney confessed fully, stating that after a quarrel at a tavern and brooding over his marital troubles—his wife Lucille had left days earlier to work in Mount Carmel—he decided to kill the children and then himself. He admitted sparing Helen intentionally. Lucille, who had a past history of drug addiction and was working under an alias in Mount Carmel, expressed bitter anger and claimed she had feared Barney would harm the children, though locals described Barney as a devoted father and model citizen. Awaiting trial in Dauphin County Jail, Barney attempted suicide multiple times. On July 22, 1932, just eight days after the murders, he succeeded by hanging himself with his shirt sleeves in his cell. He was buried alongside the children he killed. The tragedy spiraled into further hardship for the family: Lucille was arrested for disorderly conduct the following month, and within two years both of her parents died, as did her brother in a mining accident. The eventual fates of Lucille and Helen remain unknown, with records only hinting that Lucille may have moved to New York by 1934. This grim case left behind unanswered questions about Barney's mental state, Lucille's role in the family breakdown, and the lasting impact on the lone surviving child.ORIGINAL CASE SOURCES…https://paoddities.blogspot.com/2020/06/the-lykens-triple-axe-murder-of-1932.htmlhttps://www.lykensvalley.org/three-children-killed-in-axe-murder-in-lykens-1932/https://www.lykensvalley.org/lykens-funeral-for-ax-murder-victims-1932/Music provided by Alibi Music Library= = = = ="I have come into the world as a light, so that no one who believes in me should stay in darkness." — John 12:46= = = = =WeirdDarkness® is a registered trademark.

Erik Menendez is hospitalized with a serious medical condition just weeks before a pivotal parole hearing. A judge says withheld abuse evidence may have changed the verdict — could a new trial be coming? #STSNation, Welcome to Surviving the Survivor — the podcast that brings you the #BestGuests in all of #TrueCrime. Erik Menendez is hospitalized with a serious medical condition—undergoing multiple surgeries for large kidney stones—just weeks before he and his brother Lyle face a crucial parole hearing on August 21–22, 2025. Their attorney is pushing for a medical furlough, while a California judge has ordered prosecutors to explain why key sexual abuse evidence—like Erik's 1988 letter to cousin Andy Cano and a 2023 affidavit from Menudo's Roy Rosselló—was excluded from their original trial. That decision could trigger a full retrial. The brothers were resentenced in May to 50 years to life, making them immediately eligible for parole after 35 years behind bars. #BestGuests: • Robert Rand – The original investigative reporter on the Menendez case and author of The Menendez Murders, the definitive book on the brothers and the killings.• Dr. Ildiko Tabori – A Los Angeles-based psychologist analyzing the brothers' trauma, behavior, and potential rehabilitation.More of STS:Links: Https://linktr.ee/stspodcastGet Joel's Book: Https://amzn.to/48GwbLxSTS Merch: Https://www.bonfire.com/store/sts-store/Support the show on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/SurvivingTheSurvivorCatch us live on YouTube: Surviving The Survivor: #BestGuests in True Crime - YouTubeVenmo Donations: @STSPodcast or Https://www.venmo.com/stspodcast

If you're a mom with a house full of hungry people, you already know: they eat all day long.

Ever wondered about the real story behind a bottle of tequila? It's not just about agave and distilling; it's a dramatic saga of revolution, political betrayal, and intense family rivalries. In this episode, we're joined by author Ted Genoways to uncover the incredible history of Jose Cuervo, a story that is far more turbulent and cinematic than you can imagine. We'll explore how one man's ambition to build a business empire became entangled in a bloody struggle for the very spirit of Mexico.Join us as we dive deep into the subjects of Ted Genoways' groundbreaking book, "Tequila Wars." Discover how the tequila industry wasn't just a bystander but a central player in Mexico's national conflicts. We explore the bitter Cuervo and Sauza family rivalry, a competition that shaped not only the business but also the political landscape of Jalisco. Learn about the Porfirio Diaz tequila industry connection, where Cuervo's own uncle, Florentino Cuervo, was a key figure in the revolution that brought Diaz to power, only to be betrayed later. This complex saga reveals how these families navigated shifting allegiances and constant violence during the tumultuous era of tequila and the Mexican Revolution. From militia leaders running distilleries to the struggle to build modern infrastructure like railroads amidst national chaos, this conversation uncovers a lost chapter of history.This episode peels back the label to reveal the true story behind one of the world's most famous spirits. We discuss how Jose Cuervo's project to rebuild his family's empire was a narrative of genius and resilience, culminating at the 1904 St. Louis World's Fair, a pivotal moment that forced the industry to modernize. Yet, just as Cuervo built the infrastructure for a global business, the revolution erupted, forcing distilleries to close and pitting figures like Pancho Villa against American interests right on the distribution lines. The full history of Jose Cuervo is a tale of how a regional spirit survived near-constant warfare to become a national symbol, ironically aided by the era of Prohibition in the United States. Don't miss this fascinating discussion about Ted Genoways Tequila Wars, a story waiting to be told.About Our Guest:Ted Genoways is an acclaimed author and journalist. His book, "Tequila Wars: Jose Cuervo, and the Bloody Struggle for the Spirit of Mexico," is the result of years of deep investigation into a history that many believed was lost forever. Sparked by family stories from his father, a bat biologist who worked in the agave fields of Jalisco, Ted embarked on a journey to uncover the archives and family secrets of the tequila titans, revealing their central role in the shaping of modern Mexico.Timestamps / Chapters:(00:00) The Secret History of Tequila(02:52) The Real "Tequila Wars": More Than Just Business(04:53) From Family Stories to a Historical Epic(12:05) The Cuervo and Sauza Rivalry: A Battle for Tequila's Soul(16:55) The Porfirio Diaz Era: Tequila's Role in National Politics(22:37) Uncovering Lost History: The Challenge of Research(26:59) How Railroads Became Critical for Tequila's Expansion(34:41) Surviving the Mexican Revolution and Pancho Villa(38:59) How the 1904 St. Louis World's Fair Modernized Tequila(44:59) Will "Tequila Wars" Become a Movie or TV Series?

Watch the best scene reading: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QDHl6jdZ3M4 Blue (formerly Logan) is a gifted transgender surgical nurse whose life spirals after a violent romance exposes her truth. Surviving a suicide attempt, she's sent to an off-grid trauma retreat, where healing begins amid a web of broken souls, betrayal, and revelation. Returning home to confront family and memory, Logan reclaims his identity—detransitioning not in retreat, but in power. Blue Idaho is a raw, redemptive journey of self-forgiveness, queer identity, and the quiet strength it takes to choose yourself. What is your screenplay about? This screenplay is a bold, soul-stirring exploration of identity, redemption, and the courage to love one's true self. At its heart is Blue (also known as Logan) — a precise, compassionate, and quietly suffering OR nurse who identifies as a trans woman. Behind her composed exterior lies a turbulent past: a childhood marred by neglect, abuse, and rejection. She inflicts harm on herself not for attention, but as a tragic ritual — a conversation with the inner child who was never allowed to speak. Based on real memories, true events, and lived characters, this story is an emotional autopsy of shame, survival, and transformation. When Blue opens her heart to Connor, a young doctor who genuinely sees her, it shatters the rule she swore to live by: never mix vulnerability with proximity. When Connor uncovers her truth, the rejection that follows is brutal — familiar — and almost final. Blue's near-death suicide attempt leads her to an unconventional retreat, where healing unfolds in messy, unexpected ways. There, she finds not only herself, but also her voice — as Logan. This story is not about being trans. It's about being human in the aftermath of trauma. It's about reclaiming dignity when the world has tried to erase it. It's about survival — and the raw, beautiful work of learning to live again. What genres does your screenplay fall under? Drama and Coming-of-Age, with powerful psychological and emotional undercurrents that resonate universally. Why should this screenplay be made into a movie? Because it tells a story that has rarely — if ever — been told with such honesty, depth, and compassion. Blue/Logan is a protagonist we haven't seen before: a trans woman, a detransitioner, a medical caregiver, a wounded survivor, a human being whose experiences speak across lines of gender, politics, or identity. This is not a culture-war film. It's a human story, and that is its power. The screenplay holds a mirror up to all of us who have felt unworthy of love, who carry an injured inner child, who have learned to survive by shrinking. It dares to say: you are still here — and that matters. It is intimate yet universal, deeply personal yet painfully relatable. This is not just an LGBTQIA+ story. It's a redemptive character journey that speaks the emotional language of anyone who's felt voiceless, invisible, or broken — and longs to heal.

In this episode, Jeff Bloomfield sits down with Dr. Chris Laszlo—professor, author, and co-founder of the Global Consciousness Institute—to explore a transformative new approach to business leadership. Drawing on decades of research and deep personal reflection, Dr. Laszlo challenges the narrow focus on profit and “sustainability” in favor of something richer: human and organizational flourishing. He introduces concepts from his book Quantum Leadership and shares why a leader's inner world—how they connect with self, others, nature, and transcendence—may hold the key to long-term impact, innovation, and success. If you're a business leader or executive struggling to align purpose with performance, this episode is a must. Laszlo unpacks how emotional connectedness and daily practices rooted in neuroscience, not spreadsheets, create the foundation for true, regenerative leadership. His insights are especially valuable for C-suite leaders, coaches, and culture builders who want to move beyond compliance checklists and unlock real transformation. Sustainability ≠ Flourishing: Laszlo distinguishes between surviving (sustainability) and thriving (flourishing), calling for a more ambitious goal for business. Origin in Philosophy: His father, renowned systems philosopher Ervin Laszlo, sparked early reflections on systems, ethics, and purpose. Early Wake-Up Call: As a teen at a wealthy boarding school, Laszlo realized the disconnect between privilege and global inequality—igniting a lifelong purpose. Economics with a Conscience: Frustrated by ethics being an afterthought in business, he asked: “Why can't doing good be profitable?” Flourishing Requires Inner Transformation: Real change in organizations must begin with how leaders are, not just what they do. Four Connections Matter: Lasting impact comes from daily practices that connect leaders to self, others, nature, and the transcendent. It's Not About Time—It's About Intent: You don't need more hours—just more awareness in how you run meetings, lead conversations, and engage others. Quantum Science Meets Leadership: Emerging science supports the interconnectedness of all things, providing a scientific foundation for humanistic leadership. Daily Practices Matter: Laszlo identified over 110 “connectedness practices”—from running to music to mindful meetings—that enhance leadership capacity. The Future Is Conscious: Through his nonprofit (GCI.Earth), Laszlo works to scale practices that elevate global consciousness in business and beyond. 00:00 – Jeff sets the stage: leadership, communication, and purpose 04:24 – Chris's intro and worldview on business as a force for good 06:17 – Chris's origin story: systems philosophy and a call to make a difference 12:00 – Economic education vs. ethical purpose: the inner conflict 18:28 – Redefining “sustainability” as “flourishing” 23:00 – Neuroscience of emotions: positive attractors, stress, and connectedness 26:00 – Leadership research: over 100 practices of connected CEOs 32:00 – 4 types of connectedness: self, others, nature, transcendence 39:00 – Quantum leadership and global consciousness 43:00 – AI, consciousness, and humanity's next frontier 46:00 – Resources, books, and ways to connect with Chris

Waylon Jennings' musical career began with tragedy. On tour as the bass player for his friend Buddy Holly, Waylon gave up his seat on the tiny plane that, just hours later, crashed, killing Buddy and three others. That experience alone nearly put an end to Waylon's musical dreams. But he continued, persevering by doing only the things he wanted to do – which included hiding his pill stash from his roommate Johnny Cash, hiding his coke stash from the DEA, and creating a county/rock hybrid that refused to conform or even obey the law.
