Alcatraz, l'isola fortezza nel cuore della Baia di San Francisco, è sempre stata sinonimo di sicurezza assoluta. Qui venivano rinchiusi i criminali più pericolosi d'America, sotto costante sorveglianza e in un ambiente considerato inespugnabile. Eppure, l'11 giugno 1962, tre detenuti – Frank Morris e i fratelli John e Clarence Anglin – riuscirono a evadere dalla prigione più sorvegliata degli Stati Uniti. Con pazienza e ingegno, scavarono i muri delle loro celle, costruirono una zattera di fortuna usando impermeabili rubati, per poi scomparire nelle acque gelide della Baia. L'FBI li cercò per decenni, ma i loro corpi non furono mai ritrovati. Che fine hanno fatto i tre fuggitivi? Sono morti durante la traversata, o sono riusciti a far perdere per sempre le loro tracce? Proviamo a scoprirlo assieme a Fabio Sanvitale: giornalista investigativo, criminologo e conduttore del podcast “Dentro il Mistero”.

Connery DeHuff co-hosts the show, and things go off the rail very quickly. Lazy tech workers set a Guinness World record by keeping 25 balloons in the air for one minute. This led to the question: Who's most likely to waste time at their job? Sales guy, I.T. guy, or manager. A hearse in Australia is going viral. It was seen hauling a casket as it was going through a McDonald's drive thru. After four shark attacks in 48 hours, NSW authorities urge beachgoers ‘just go to a pool'. Cowboy goes full boomer on the surfers. A coyote was seen swimming to Alcatraz Island in the first-ever documented case. And Connery is not happy about this news. A pet cow in Austria started using a broom to scratch herself. And I refuse to talk about Greenland. Email: DeHuffpodcast@gmail.com Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Why Kids Are Spiraling, Markets Are Crashing & Adults Won't Step Up | The Karel Show 26-7 Something is breaking — socially, politically, and economically — and today's episode connects the dots. In Las Vegas, a man is suing the families of seven teens after a violent park attack. It's not an isolated incident. I've been attacked twice by kids on e-bikes myself. Across the country, young people are acting out with little consequence, little guidance, and little accountability — often raised by overwhelmed adults who were never prepared to raise anyone at all. We also look at Brooklyn Beckham going public in a way that reflects a much larger generational unraveling — and ask what happens when kids are raised by kids in a culture with no guardrails. Meanwhile, Donald Trump tanked the markets, threatened Greenland (yes, again), and sparked renewed calls — including from a sitting Senator — to invoke the 25th Amendment. Congress, as usual, does nothing. As conditions escalate rapidly, the question isn't if this gets worse — it's who will finally act. We also break down: • Peet's Coffee closing Bay Area locations • Starbucks downsizing nationwide • Whether the era of $10 coffee is finally ending • And yes — a determined coyote trying to reach Alcatraz

Andrea joins Russian mafia expert Olga Lautman to expose the transnational looting spree and warn Stephen Miller will turn Venezuela into a new Alcatraz. First, we look at who stands to get rich off Trump's illegal invasion. Devin Nunes and a squad of Trump Media cronies just took over a company that tried to bid $10 billion for Citgo, Venezuela's oil crown jewel, right as their boss plotted a secret invasion. So who won Citgo? Why, MAGA billionaire Paul Singer, a vulture capitalist who serves as Trump's ATM and hand-picked Marco Rubio for Secretary of State. Who else is a big winner? The Republican Party's longtime backers, Exxon. Just as Trump hoped invading Venezuela would boost his plummeting approval ratings, Maduro threatened to invade oil-rich Guyana to distract from his own corruption. Now that Maduro is no longer harassing Exxon in Guyana, Exxon's stocks are soaring along with the rest of Big Oil. But the darkest "follow the money" story goes beyond oil. The private prison industry rakes in a fortune thanks to Trump's cruelty. El Salvador's CECOT mega-prison holds 40,000, but Trump and Stephen Miller want space for 80,000 people kidnapped from the U.S. Construction takes years; so Venezuela offers the obvious solution: the "New Alcatraz." Outsourcing prisoners to a lawless, torture-filled transnational Gulag, a story censored by Bari Weiss's CBS News, is the most troubling crisis of MAGA's illegal invasion of Venezuela and co-rule with a violent oil mafia. There's always hope, but it requires a blueprint and courage. The Venezuelan people proved their 2024 election victory through heroic citizen vote-counting: a model of resistance that we in the U.S. must study to reclaim our own democracy. We must align with these transnational forces for good to dismantle the global crime syndicate. We warned you this would happen. Now, we must organize, stand up, and remain defiant. Show Notes: Devin Nunes and others linked to Trump Media became officers of a company soon after it made an unsuccessful $10 billion bid for Venezuelan-state-owned Citgo Petroleum's U.S. assets by Wendy Siegelman https://newstracs.com/devin-nunes-and-others-linked-to-trump-media-are-officers-of-a-company-that-bid-for-citgo/2026/01/01/ Learn from Venezuela's opposition: The Official Unofficial Record How do you count almost 12 million votes if you're not the government?

How can this reptilian miracle be? Long before the organization was corrupted by Shredder, the Foot Clan's original purpose was to save Japan from Kaiju! Now, in the present day, Godzilla and its fellow monsters have reappeared. Not only is the Foot not prepared to stop them…it would seem Shredder himself is behind the attacks! The Turtles are always crossing over into rad nerd realms, but this one might be the king crossover of them all.

Mucha gente aprovecha estos días de vacaciones navideñas para viajar. Nosotros también queremos irnos de viaje pero con el cine. En este especial visitamos distintos lugares emblemáticos que han sido retratados en las películas. Visitaremos París y su monumento más famoso: La torre Eiffel. En Nueva York nos daremos una vuelta por un edificio tan fascinante como misterioso, el Edificio Dakota. Luego cambiaremos de costa e iremos a San Francisco a conocer la historia de la prisión de Alcatraz y en el Sur de Texas haremos una parada en una vieja misión donde en 1836 se libró una batalla entre mejicanos y secesionistas tejanos, la batalla del Álamo.
Spike Island, or "Ireland's Alcatraz", is a small coastal enclave off the coast of Cobh in Co Cork. But while most of us associate its colourful history as one of a battle-hardened prison, its story begins much earlier, centuries earlier in fact. Today on the Indo Daily, Ellen Coyne is joined by John Crotty, former general manager of Spike Island and author of the book Spike Island: The Rebels, Residents and Crafty Criminals of Ireland's Historic Island, to discuss the island's past and the potential histories yet to be unfurled Host: Ellen Coyne Guest: John Crotty *This podcast was first released in May, 2025.

In this episode of The LEO Podcast, We start with the U.S. government's decision to indefinitely pause the Diversity Visa Lottery, unpacking why the program is being targeted and what the freeze means for thousands of people who rely on one of the few remaining legal pathways to permanent residency. Next, we head to the Florida Everglades to talk about Alligator Alcatraz, the immigration detention center many believe is closed, but isn't. Kevin shares the story of the small group of protesters who stayed behind after the media left, becoming an unexpected support system for families searching for answers. Finally, we zoom out to the Caribbean, where the U.S. Coast Guard is pursuing and seizing oil tankers linked to Venezuela, escalating sanctions enforcement into a tense geopolitical standoff with major implications for Latin America, global energy, and regional stability.

Hanoi Jane Emerges, Trump's 100 Days of Buffoonery and Outrage, and the New Anti-MAGA American PopeWelcome to episode forty-three of David & Stu… Unhinged! As always, we'd like to thank Clara Wang for creating the fantastic artwork for this podcast. In this episode, David and Stu cover the following:1) The Audubon Society, an organization Stu supports, awarded Jane Fonda for her environmental work, which caused Stu to boycott the event and consider a protest against her due to her traitorous behavior during the Vietnam War.2) Trump's insulting and outrageous proposal to rename Veterans Day, which was greeted with consternation by those who served their country in the military, unlike Trump, who evaded service by claiming he had bone spurs like the cowardly nepo baby he is.3) The election of Mike Carney as Prime Minister in Canada. Carney is a far-left candidate, and the conservative was expected to win. Instead, due to a Trump backlash over his calls for annexation, the Canadians revolted, indicating how weak Trump's influence is globally. Similar electoral results occurred in Australia, indicating how poorly the MAGA brand sells internationally, unlike Reagan, who brought his revolution to the world and won the Cold War.4) The ridiculous proposal by Trump to repurpose Alcatraz as a federal prison when it is basically in ruins and would require rebuilding and probably would be impractical to operate. This is another stunt that further indicates how weak his presidential leadership has been.5) Cardinal Robert Francis Prevost, an American, was chosen as the new Pope Leo XIV, and he is not conservative either. In fact, he had previously condemned Trump's and JD Piglet's immigration policies. Meanwhile, Trump disrespected Catholic tradition at Francis' funeral and then posted an AI image of himself as Pope. Imagine what the liberal elite media would have done if he had posted himself as MLK or Mohammad.We welcome comments on our podcasts, which can be left on our website or any other platform you may be tuning in on.Connect with David & Stu:Email David & Stu: davidandstuunhinged@gmail.com and share your comments, concerns, and questions.We encourage all to visit our website (https://www.rageworksnetwork.com/show/david-stu-unhinged/) and please leave comments for our consideration.
