In this episode, we tell the heartbreaking story of Peggy Carothers, a 15-year-old girl from Hammond, Indiana, who vanished without a trace in May of 1997. Raised in a tight-knit family of six children, Peggy was bright, funny, and full of life. Her best friend remembers the two of them dancing and singing Alanis Morissette songs, dreaming about the future like any teenage girls would.But everything changed on a sunny school day when Peggy didn't come home. Rumors swirled. Friends revealed a secret Peggy had been hiding—one that pointed to a boy she thought she loved. Weeks passed with no answers… until two teens stumbled on a shallow grave in a wooded area known as Higgins Woods.What followed was a chilling investigation built entirely on whispers, secrets, and circumstantial evidence—leading to a shocking arrest, and a trial that exposed a carefully hidden truth. In the end, Peggy's story is one of innocence lost, justice fought for, and a small town forever changed.Sources:https://www.peacocktv.com/watch/playback/vod/GMO_00000000322409_01/22f8d227-ffd1-3cfd-beb2-deb0eb41e731?paused=truehttps://www.chicagotribune.com/1997/07/02/hammond-teen-charged-in-ex-girlfriends-slaying/https://www.oxygen.com/buried-in-the-backyard/crime-news/peggy-carothers-murder-teen-killed-by-ex-boyfriend-buried-inhttps://law.justia.com/cases/indiana/supreme-court/1999/09299901-trb.htmlhttps://www.oxygen.com/buried-in-the-backyard/season-3/episode-10/videos/bridal-shop-owner-gives-statement-to-police-aboutSend us a textEmail Residue: residuepodcast@gmail.comFind RESIDUE online:Instagram: @residuepodcastTik Tok: @residuepodcast Facebook: Residue:A True Crime Podcast Credits: RESIDUE is Hosted/Produced/Researched/Edited by Chrissy Champagne THEME SONG: "Dance Of Death" by Purple Planet Music collection written and performed by Chris Martyn and Geoff Harvey.

The stark reality of women's declining presence on country radio sparks a passionate debate among Nashville veterans in this candid conversation about the state of modern country music. When confronted with the statistic that female artists now make up only 8.39% of country radio play—down from 29% in 2000—the hosts don't hold back their theories on why this dramatic shift has occurred.Amid criticisms that today's female artists "all sound the same," the group highlights an emerging artist named Mary Kutter who's breaking the mold with her authentic Kentucky backwoods sound and polarizing approach. Her willingness to tackle controversial subjects has drawn comparisons to how Alanis Morissette disrupted 90s music, offering a refreshing counterpoint to an industry that often rewards safe, formulaic music from female performers.The discussion takes an unexpected turn when the hosts identify a major opportunity in country music—the duo category. With Florida Georgia Line's breakup leaving a vacuum and Brooks & Dunn still commanding attention decades into their career, they make a compelling case for why aspiring male artists might find greater success by pairing up rather than competing as solo acts in an oversaturated market.Perhaps most revealing is the conversation about changing power dynamics in Nashville, where even songwriters with double-digit number one hits describe having to jump through new hoops just to get in a writing room with today's artists. This shifting landscape points to deeper concerns about respect for craft and experience in an industry increasingly driven by streaming numbers and social media presence rather than artistic legacy.Between moments of nostalgia for 90s country's distinctive female vocalists and candid observations about political divisions splitting up successful acts, this episode offers an unfiltered look at country music's present challenges and future possibilities from those who've lived through its many evolutions.

With a themed season focusing on icons it features productions such as Alanis Morissette's “Jagged Little Pill”, “Becoming Dr. Ruth”, “Grease”, “Dirty Blonde”, “The Producers” as well as a play called “The Shark is Broken” in which 3 actors take on the roles of Robert Shaw, Roy Scheider and Richard Dreyfus who “…are crammed into a too-small boat, entirely at the mercy of foul weather and a faulty mechanical co-star. Alcohol flows, egos collide, and tempers flare on a chaotic voyage that just might lead to cinematic magic…if it doesn't sink them all.” And all of that is just SOME of their seasons offerings.

În fiecare vară, Timișoara devine un centru al jazzului contemporan, un loc în care sunetele inovatoare, artiștii de renume și publicul pasionat creează împreună o experiență muzicală unică. JAZZx, ajuns la a 13-a ediție, continuă să inoveze oferind un program divers care celebrează bogăția stilistică și talentul artiștilor români și internaționali. Discutam despre acest eveniment cu Andreea Iager Tako (Centrul Cultural Plai) si Krisztina Kalapati (responsabil comunicare JAZZx Festival TM). După ce primele nume anunțate – Jacob Banks, The Philharmonik, New Fossils și Zaharenco –  festivalul își continuă dezvăluirea lineup-ului cu artiști excepționali, care vor transforma cele trei zile de festival într-un eveniment memorabil. Béla Fleck, Edmar Castañeda & Antonio Sánchez Trio One Sheet Câștigător a 18 premii Grammy (42 de nominalizari / Grammy 2025 pentru “Best Arrangement, Instrumental or A Capella”), Béla Fleck a redefinit banjo-ul, transformându-l dintr-un instrument tradițional într-un vector al inovației muzicale. De la bluegrass la jazz și colaborări cu artiști legendari precum Chick Corea, Fleck surprinde mereu prin explorările sale sonore. La JAZZx 2025, alături de Edmar Castaneda – un virtuoz al harpei din Columbia, cunoscut pentru colaborările cu Hiromi, Paquito D'Rivera și Gregoire Maret – și Antonio Sanchez – toboșar de 5 ori premiat cu Grammy, celebru pentru colaborările cu Pat Metheny și coloana sonoră a filmului Birdman – vine să creeze un dialog muzical captivant, plin de ritmuri surprinzătoare, armonii sofisticate și o energie aparte.    Meshell Ndegeocello Este o artistă de excepție, recunoscută pentru talentul său de a îmbina diverse influențe muzicale diverse, de la funk și soul la jazz, hip hop, reggae și rock. De-a lungul unei cariere de peste 30 de ani, a redefinit așteptările. Câștigătoarea premiulul Grammy din acest an la categoria “Best Alternative Jazz Album” și având în palmares alte 2 premii și 13 nominalizari, Meshell a colaborat de-a lungul carierei cu artiști de renume precum Rolling Stones, Madonna, Alanis Morissette și mulți alții. Pentru ea, fiecare spectacol este o oportunitate de conexiune, considerând muzica un liant între oameni – un principiu care se regăsește perfect în spiritul JAZZx: We Jazz Together.   Adi Oasis Originară din Caraibe și stabilită în Brooklyn, Adi Oasis este o artistă și producătoare de soul-funk-R&B, recunoscută pentru vocea sa inconfundabilă. Cel mai recent album al său, „Lotus Glow”, este cea mai personală și curajoasă creație a ei de până acum, îmbinând teme politice și sociale cu o estetică sonoră captivantă. Din 2018, de când și-a început cariera solo, a cucerit publicul și critica de specialitate, fiind apreciată de Vogue, Elle, Rolling Stone și Wonderland. A avut un impact puternic pe scena live, impresionând cu prestații energice și colaborări cu artiști precum Lenny Kravitz, Masego, Anderson .Paak, Thundercat și Yasiin Bey. A urcat pe scenele unor festivaluri prestigioase, inclusiv Newport Jazz Fest, Montreux Jazz Festival, Love Supreme, Afropunk și Cross the Tracks, iar acum aduce acest mix efervescent de stiluri la JAZZx 2025, promițând un show electrizant.   IOANAx Soultrain Un proiect custom dezvoltat de Subcarpați pentru JAZZx, după SUBJazz (Subcarpați x JazzyBit), subliniind caracterul unic al festivalului.

Host: Michal Charles aka MMC13 Guest: Jonathan Schwartz   In this episode of Sobertown Podcast, host Michal interviews Jonathan Schwartz, former Hollywood financial advisor turned addiction advocate and sober warrior. Jonathan shares his journey from managing the wealth of celebrities like Beyoncé, Linkin Park and Alanis Morissette to battling his own addictions with gambling and drugs, which led to embezzlement of millions of dollars and eventual imprisonment. He discusses his childhood trauma, the impact of addiction on his life, and his path to redemption through recovery. Now a licensed therapist, Jonathan focuses on helping others overcome addiction by connecting with their emotions and resolving past traumas. He emphasizes the importance of self-awareness, accountability, and community support in achieving and maintaining sobriety.   Jonathan Todd Schwartz, once a towering figure in Hollywood's elite financial circles, lived a life that many could only dream of. As a power entertainment business manager at GSO Business Management, Schwartz was entrusted with managing the wealth of some of the biggest names in the entertainment industry, including Beyoncé, Mariah Carey, Alanis Morissette, Linkin Park, Halsey, and Gwyneth Paltrow. His reputation as one of Hollywood's most "trusted" financial advisors earned him the moniker "diva whisperer," a reflection of his ability to cater to the unique needs of his high-profile clients. However, beneath the surface of this seemingly perfect life, Schwartz was hiding a dark secret. Consumed by a monstrous drug habit and an uncontrollable gambling addiction, Schwartz began to embezzle millions from his clients to fund his destructive lifestyle. His double life was a carefully constructed house of cards, built on lies and deceit, which ultimately came crashing down in 2016 when Alanis Morissette discovered that Schwartz had stolen over $4.7 million from her accounts. The fallout was swift and brutal. Schwartz's crimes were exposed, leading to his arrest and subsequent conviction. The once-celebrated financial guru was now a disgraced criminal, reviled by the very industry that once revered him. His actions not only ruined his own life but also brought significant financial losses and reputational damage to GSO Business Management. But Schwartz's story doesn't end with his fall from grace. Since his release from prison in 2020, Schwartz has embarked on a journey of redemption. Sober and a co-chair of his local Gambler's Anonymous, he is determined to make amends for his past wrongdoings. Schwartz is now dedicated to proving that he is no longer the "defrauding monster" he once was, and is desperate to clear his name, particularly with his ex-wife and children, who continue to harbor doubts about his sincerity. Schwartz's life is a tale of extremes— from the heights of Hollywood success to the depths of criminal infamy. It raises the question: Can Jonathan truly change, or is this just another act in a long-running con? Schwartz's story is a compelling exploration of human nature, redemption, and the thin line between good and evil. In his own words, Schwartz acknowledges his flaws and the damage he has caused, but he remains committed to telling his story, hoping that it will serve as a cautionary tale for others and perhaps, one day, lead to his own redemption. His story is a modern-day parable, echoing the themes of the latest viral scammer tales like Inventing Anna, Tinder Swindler, and Bad Vegan—a once-in-a- lifetime narrative that promises to captivate and dominate public consciousness.  Altus Rehab Instagram: @therealjonathanschwartz     About Michal: Michal is an American podcaster and sober warrior who believes every recovery journey is as unique as the individual traveling it. With over a decade of sobriety garnered through various systems, programs, and support networks, she's passionate about breaking down stereotypes and smashing through the guilt and shame that can keep those suffering with addiction in the dark. Michal is an animal lover, rescue enthusiast, and motorcycle chick who loves helping others, whether in her personal or professional life.  Contact Michal at:EarlydaysPC@gmail.com    Other Sober Resources: I Am Sober App Getting Sober ...Again Boom Rethink The Drink

Picture it, Boston, 1995. A young man from Meriden, CT decides to uproot his life and move to a new city. New faces, new friends, and plenty of new music.It has been 30 years since I made the fateful decision to make the move to Boston. It was also a time to expand my musical palette. Thankfully, there was plenty of new music to choose from, with tons of second hand music shops like CD Spins, interspersed with the big retailers like Tower Records.Much of the music on the radio at the time was not for me (except TLC!), but thanfully there were rock friendly radio stations in the city, as well as some of the best clubs to see live music. TT the Bears and The Middle East come to mind. Acts that would go on to become huge stars got their big breaks in 1995, while smaller indie, punk, and metal bands were just reaching their loftiest heights. Bands like Shelter and Jawbreaker achieved their biggest commercial successes, while bands like Rancid and Presidents of the United States of America were getting some air time on radio stations like WBCN and WAAF.Plus, legends like Faith No More, Radiohead and Fugazi added to their legacies in 1995. Oh, and some band called Oasis had a huge record or something.And everyone was asking the question, "What is a Foo Fighter"?

Send us a textWhat happens when a Hollywood power broker responsible for managing millions for stars like Beyoncé and Alanis Morissette loses everything through addiction and embezzlement? Jonathan Todd Schwartz takes us on his extraordinary journey from "Diva Whisperer" to federal prison inmate to recovery advocate with unflinching honesty.Schwartz doesn't shy away from the brutal truth – he stole $7 million from clients to fund his cocaine and gambling addictions, actions that destroyed his career, marriage, and relationship with his children. Yet his story isn't defined by his spectacular fall, but rather by his remarkable redemption. Now celebrating nine years of sobriety, Schwartz reveals how he transformed his greatest failures into a platform for helping others.The conversation delves deep into the psychology of addiction and recovery, exploring how childhood abandonment created patterns that went unresolved for decades. Schwartz shares powerful insights about making amends (including to yourself), developing self-awareness, and learning to practice compassionate self-talk to break free from shame while maintaining radical accountability. His practical recovery tools – including writing down potential relapse consequences and practicing daily gratitude – offer tangible strategies for anyone struggling with addiction.Perhaps most compelling is Schwartz's ability to hold two seemingly contradictory truths: complete ownership of his actions without crushing shame. Though some relationships may never be repaired – two of his sons still don't speak to him – he's found purpose as a program director at a treatment center, where his lived experience provides unique insight for clients battling their own demons.Ready to transform your relationship with yourself? Take Schwartz's powerful advice to heart: "Have the courage to be vulnerable. Ask for help. You're worth it."Support the show#thetruthaboutaddiction#sobriety#the12steps#recovery#therapy#mentalhealth#podcasts#emotionalsobriety#soberliving#sobermindset#spirituality#spiritualgrowth#aa#soberlife#mindfulness#wellness#wellnessjourney#personalgrowth#personaldevelopment#sobermovement#recoveroutloud#sobercurious#sobermoms#soberwomen#author#soberauthor#purpose#passion#perspective

Jonathan Todd Schwartz is a former business manager who gained notoriety for embezzling over $7 million from his clients, including singer Alanis Morissette. Between May 2010 and January 2014, Schwartz stole nearly $5 million from Morissette by falsely categorizing the funds as "sundry/personal expenses." He also admitted to embezzling an additional $2.3 million from five other clients during his tenure at GSO Business Management, a firm that served high-profile clients such as Katy Perry, 50 Cent, and Tom Petty.The thefts were uncovered after Morissette hired a new business manager who discovered the missing funds. Schwartz initially claimed that the money had been invested in an illegal marijuana business, but this was later proven to be false. At his sentencing in May 2017, Schwartz was sentenced to six years in federal prison, ordered to pay $8.6 million in restitution, and placed on three years of supervised release. He expressed deep remorse, stating, "I will spend the rest of my life asking for forgiveness".https://linktr.ee/UnforbiddentruthBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/unforbidden-truth--4724561/support.

Today, May 1, is the first day of Maternal Mental Health Awareness Month. I'm bringing back this special episode from last year; it's a listener favorite, one of my favorites, and one of our most popular downloads. I'm deeply honored to share my interview with Grammy Award-winning singer-songwriter, thought leader, and wholeness advocate, Alanis Morissette! She is joined by the president and CEO of Postpartum Support International, Dr. Wendy Davis. Alanis has given much of her time, heart, energy, and effort to raise awareness about maternal mental health. In our conversation, she shares vulnerable and enlightening peeks into her personal experience, and her feelings mirror what many suffering women feel.  Alanis found PSI as a resource when she was dealing with perinatal mental health challenges, and she has openly shared about the value of PSI resources while on tour. In addition to being a long-time, powerful presence in the music world, she has become an equally influential advocate for mental health. She has been vocal about experiencing postpartum depression, or “postpartum activity,” as she has referred to it. In our conversation, she shares like never before what her experience was like, how it impacted her life, and how she has found her way to healing. Being in the public eye as a well-known performer has brought a whole other level of pressure and scrutiny to Alanis' life experiences under the bright–and sometimes stinging–light of celebrity. Dr. Wendy Davis began as a volunteer with PSI in 1997, became the executive director in 2009, and later became the president and CEO. She was drawn to this work after healing from postpartum depression and has become a passionate advocate and leader in the world of perinatal mental health. I've been privileged to see Wendy in action at PSI and work closely with her in my role as the Board Chair. Her heart-centered and help-centered approach to leadership has grown PSI into the leading perinatal mental health non-profit in the world today. Show Highlights: ● Alanis' struggle to balance the people-pleasing life of a celebrity with “the dark swamp of depression” that nobody wanted to see or hear ● Being a high-achieving perfectionist who is self-reliant and autonomous puts a person at a greater risk for postpartum depression. ● Figuring out the archetype of “mom” is a lifelong journey. ● Understanding how the 90s rock and roll scene was a strongly patriarchal environment that left Alanis feeling more isolated and less connected ● Alanis' experience with anger, rage, panic attacks, and a loss of identity ● Tenderness, love, and empowerment in motherhood ● Our immense gratitude for Alanis' impact as a fierce advocate and champion of PSI's work and helpful resources Resources: Connect with Alanis Morissette: Find out more about Alanis' music and events on her⁠ Website⁠; follow Alanis on social media:⁠ Instagram⁠,⁠ Facebook⁠, and⁠ YouTube⁠ Call the National Maternal Mental Health Hotline at 1-833-TLC-MAMA or visit cdph.ca.gov Please find resources in English and Spanish at Postpartum Support International, or by phone/text at 1-800-944-4773.

It's part 2 with Comedian, actress, and Netflix star, Fortune Feimster and she's back overflowing with wild stories, deep moments, and Hollywood surprises. She kicks off with a musical confession that she once performed Goodbye Earl live with The Chicks and raves about vocal queens like Kelly Clarkson (the slimmed-down version) and Alanis Morissette, earning massive diva points. We had no idea Fortune could sing until she shocked everyone at Chumpaoke. But, she swears she's not releasing an album, but now we know there's a voice under that comedy crown. From coast to coast, Fortune has done over 200 cities and 150 shows annually. She opens up about the grind of tour life and how acting—like filming Netflix's FUBAR with Arnold Schwarzenegger—gives her room to breathe. Season 2 is wrapped and packed with more action (and more Fortune!). But what happens when Fortune invites reality design king Jeff Lewis into her home? CHAOS. What began as a quick two-week makeover turned into four months of filming Hollywood Houselift and poor Jax (Fortune's soon to be ex-wife) was not thrilled. "Jeff pokes the bear." Fortune laughs, revealing the duo's dynamic clash—funny, never nasty. And yes, Jeff once called Pol' “the worst f***ing client imaginable. Badge of honor? Then boom—Madonna. Jax, a die-hard fan and fellow Michigan native, finally got to meet her idol at a private, no-phones-allowed event. And get this: Madonna knew who Fortune was and had seen her comedy. “She was kind, gracious… everything,” Fortune says, holding back tears. Jax got to thank Madonna personally for her lifelong LGBTQ+ advocacy. Total bucket-list magic. It's not all emotion—there's fashion shade ahead in “Runway Rundown.” Fortune reacts to Harvey Guillén's ruffled Critics Choice look (also worn by Chris Perfetti) and Hannah Einbinder's vintage couture moment from Hacks, drawing comparisons to Lucille Ball meets Paris runway. “It's exaggerated, it's bold, and she's serving,” Fortune says. Then: trivia chaos. Fortune plays “It's a Fortune After All” and tries to guess: - Who bought a banana for $6.2 million? (New York) - Who made $100M for one movie? - Who owns the most expensive yacht? (It's not Trump) She aces it. Then we dish on viral hecklers like Natalie Cuomo, Fortune's own nightmare heckler during her Sweet & Salty Netflix taping, and the absurdity of Mandy Moore dragging Amazon for delivering to her burned-down house. Then things turn emotional. Pol' gives Fortune a powerful coffee reading, guiding her through something long buried—a personal hurt she's carried silently. He encourages her to release it and reclaim her full self. Put the chandelier back up, he tells her, metaphorically and literally. It's a deeply moving, soul-illuminating moment. In the final moments, Pol' offers a stunning insight: Fortune may be holding onto something from her past—a moment she stayed silent, something she needs to release to truly level up in her life and career. “It's about coming home to yourself,” he says, bringing the conversation full circle.

It's part one with Netflix's Fortune Feimster so get ready to laugh, cry, and clutch your coffee cups because the iconic comic joins us in the Beverly Hills boutique for a hilariously heartfelt time. From sipping “Armenian cocaine” (ahem, coffee) to unpacking childhood traumas, closet contents, and even literal chandeliers, this is a warm hug wrapped in flannel and served with a side of sass. We kick things off with a classic mix-up: Fortune calls her coffee “Turkish,” and Pol's Armenian soul is (jokingly) scandalized. That leads us into a conversation about identity, culture, and the funny politics of naming things—like calling Turkey “Former Armenia.” You'll laugh, you'll learn, you'll wonder why Google hasn't updated its maps yet. Fortune shares how she's been making us laugh since 2005—nearly 20 years of comedy gold. She dives into her early influences, growing up in North Carolina as a self-proclaimed tomboy in a world of debutante balls, parasols, and frilly dresses. With a girly-girl mom and two older brothers, Fortune navigated expectations while finding her voice—eventually turning those awkward moments into stand-up magic. Spoiler: her childhood closet was *not* runway ready. We trace her comedy roots from a $50 gig at a lesbian bar (by the stripper pole, naturally) to her breakout on *Last Comic Standing* and four-year writing stint on *Chelsea Lately*. Her Netflix specials followed, catapulting her from comedy clubs to global fame—and yes, the stripper pole is long behind her. As the episode unfolds, we peel back even more layers of Fortune's journey. We learn that her birth name is Emily, but “Fortune”—her great-grandmother's maiden name—was her grandmother's gift and the name that truly resonated with her. The name change becomes a powerful tribute to the woman who gave her unconditional love and confidence. Then things get even more *undressed*. Pol' performs a signature cup reading for Fortune and delivers a spiritually spooky revelation: a small antique chandelier, packed away in her garage, is the key to finally grounding herself in her new home. Turns out, the chandelier once belonged to her beloved grandmother—proof that sometimes, emotional light fixtures hold the answers. We wrap with reflections on unexpected life pivots, family reconciliation, and even a surprise moment where Fortune sings *“Ironic”* live on stage with none other than Alanis Morissette. (Yes, really.) From red carpets with Anna Nicole Smith to voicing cartoon characters and starring in hit series, Fortune's done it all—on her own terms and with a heart full of humor. This is *Fortune Feimster*, fully undressed: the stand-up star, the Southern girl with a flannel soul, and the chandelier keeper ready to shine. This is another Hurrdat Media Production.
