Across the South, asylums were built with the promise of healing — but inside their walls, countless lives were marked by fear, neglect, and cruelty. In this episode of Southern Mysteries, explore the haunting history of institutions like Broughton Hospital, Cherry Hospital, Central State, and Bryce. From mysterious deaths and forced sterilizations to the tragedy of the Eller twins and the lifetime confinement of Junius Wilson, these are the real horrors that gave rise to Southern asylum ghost stories — and the suffering that still echoes through their halls.

I've known Clay & Shelly since 2019; they're an active younger couple with two kids. Both are realtors - in fact they're a married "team" - who have to shell out the full cost of health insurance as small business owners. Clay took to social media to spell out what the federal government shutdown and Democrats' posturing to save ACA credits (and claw back Medicare/Medicaid cuts) is about: the cost increase to cover their family is akin to that of a "decent used car" in 2026. Patricia Murphy at the Atlanta Journal Constitution, however, opines that Democrats are the "biggest losers" in this shutdown stalemate, but is this not the kind of "kitchen table issue" Democrats are supposed to be standing firm for?Meanwhile, Sheryl Arno, executive director of the Down Syndrome Association of Atlanta, opined in the AJC as well that the looming Medicaid cuts are going to impact families who have loved ones with special needs - and not just poor families. Those in the "messy middle" who earn just enough not to qualify for Medicaid may find themselves taking their adult neuro-atypical children back in and be full-time caregivers if the GOP-led cuts to vital waiver programs take effect in 2026.

With America In Major New Administration & the Political News View Headlines Changing Everyday, This Book is Particularly Intriguing Now!!In 1974 John Egerton published his seminal work, The Americanization of Dixie. Pulitzer Prize-winner Cynthia Tucker and award-winning author Frye Gaillard carry Egerton's thesis forward in The Southernization of America, a compelling series of linked essays considering the role of the South in shaping America's current political and cultural landscape. They dive deeper, examining the morphing of the Southern strategy of Richard Nixon and Ronald Reagan into the Republican Party of today, the racial backlash against President Obama, family separation on our southern border, the rise of the Christian right, the white supremacist riots in Charlottesville, the death of George Floyd, and the attack on our nation's capitol. They find hope in the South too, a legacy rooted in the civil rights years that might ultimately lead the nation on the path to redemption. Tucker and Gaillard bring a multiracial perspective and years of political reporting to bear on a critical moment in American history, a time of racial reckoning and democracy under siege.Frye Gaillard is an award-winning journalist with over 30 published works on Southern history and culture, including Watermelon Wine; Cradle of Freedom: Alabama and the Movement that Changed America; The Books That Mattered: A Reader's Memoir; Journey to the Wilderness: War, Memory, and a Southern Family's Civil War Letters; Go South to Freedom; A Hard Rain: America in the 1960s, Our Decade of Hope, Possibility, and Innocence Lost; and The Slave Who Went to Congress. A Hard Rain was selected as one of NPR's Best Books of 2018. Writer-in-residence at the University of South Alabama, he is also John Egerton Scholar in Residence at the Southern Foodways Alliance at the University of Mississippi. He is the winner of the Clarence Cason Award for Nonfiction Writing, the Lillian Smith Book Award, and the Eugene Current-Garcia Award For Distinction in Literary Scholarship. In 2019, Gaillard was awarded the Alabama Governor's Arts Award for his contributions to literature.Cynthia Tucker is a Pulitzer Prize-winning syndicated columnist who has spent most of her career in journalism, having previously worked for the Atlanta Journal-Constitution as an editorial page editor and as a Washington-based political columnist. She has also been featured as a political commentator on television and radio. Tucker's work as a journalist has been celebrated by the National Association of Black Journalists (who inducted her into its hall of fame), Harvard University, and the Alabama Humanities Foundation. She spent three years as a visiting professor at the University of Georgia's Grady College of Journalism and is currently the journalist-in-residence at the University of South Alabama.© 2025 Building Abundant Success!!2025 All Rights ReservedJoin Me on ~ iHeart Media @ https://tinyurl.com/iHeartBASSpot Me on Spotify: https://tinyurl.com/yxuy23baAmazon Music ~ https://tinyurl.com/AmzBASAudacy:  https://tinyurl.com/BASAud

Ashley and Albert Debelbot had just put their newborn McKenzy to bed for the first time, but hours later rushed the infant back to the hospital after finding a bump on her forehead. When she died, police concluded the parents harmed her and charged them with murder. Facing an overzealous prosecutor, a partial judge, and ineffective defense attorneys, the Debelbots spent twelve years in prison trying to clear their names. But a new legal team uncovered evidence suggesting McKenzy died from a prenatal injury, not a beating.Season 11 of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution's investigative series “Breakdown: Three Days in May” looks into the Debelbots' complicated case. Hosts Bill Rankin and Tamara Stevens recount the investigative rush-to-judgment, the flawed trial, and the evidence pointing to a medical cause of the baby's death—not a criminal one.OUR SPOILER-FREE REVIEWS OF "BREAKDOWN: THREE DAYS IN MAY" BEGIN IN THE FINAL 13 MINUTES OF THIS EPISODE.In Crime of the Week: going nuts!

Atlanta Journal Constitution op/ed columnist Bill Torpy penned a piece in early September finger-wagging at progressives over word choice and his perceiving them to be 'haughty and arrogant,' owing to their 'moral superiority' as a reason the Democratic Party is losing elections and the voter registration game, lately. He cited the recently resigned CDC official Dr. Demetre Daskalakis' resignation letter and his use of the term "pregnant people" as an example. Third Way had a longer list, incidentally; a list I questioned. I don't dismiss what Torpy or Third Way is saying, in their entirety, but I find it a touch rich with irony that both take their own 'haughty & arrogant' or 'morally superior' high horse to call out the progressive wing of the party while ignoring the party - controlled by the establishment more to the center - being awful at messaging and in being as welcoming to progressive voters as they seem to be to "never Trump" Republicans.

Sean Combs, also known to listeners as Puffy or P Diddy, remains in the headlines this week as his legal team urged a judge to limit his sentence to no more than 14 months following his conviction on two prostitution-related charges. According to the Philippine Daily Inquirer, Combs emphasized that he is now sober and feels deeply humbled by recent events, signaling both personal and professional fallout. His attorneys pressed the court for leniency, arguing that Combs' career, reputation, and businesses have been destroyed, with over 100 employees from his companies losing their jobs due to his downfall, as detailed by the Atlanta Journal-Constitution.In a related development, ABC7 reports Combs was acquitted of more severe racketeering conspiracy and sex trafficking charges, which could have led to a mandatory minimum of 15 years behind bars. Instead, his team is seeking a sentence that effectively amounts to time served given his ongoing cooperation and changed behavior.Meanwhile, the business world continues to recalibrate after Combs' split from Diageo. For years, Combs was deeply involved in turning Ciroc Vodka into a top luxury brand in the U.S., acting as the brand manager and chief marketing officer and receiving a share of the profits, as chronicled by StartupBooted. His marketing touch transformed Ciroc, boosting sales by 600% in six years and making it a staple for aspirational, celebrity-driven spirits culture.However, that business alliance ended abruptly after a public legal dispute with Diageo, which culminated in a January 2024 settlement that terminated all of Combs' involvement with the brand. Diageo now holds full ownership of Ciroc globally, and has no intention of seeking another celebrity partnership, signaling a shift away from the Diddy-era approach.Detroit News highlights that Combs' exoneration on the most serious charges leaves him facing only the lesser sentencing, but even so, his attorneys stress that the consequences to his legacy and enterprises have been devastating.Thanks for tuning in for the latest on Sean Combs.

Few people beyond South Carolina's Lowcountry knew of Emanuel African Methodist Episcopal Church in Charleston—Mother Emanuel—before the tragic events on the night of June 17, 2015. Although the shooter had targeted Mother Emanuel to agitate racial strife, he could not have anticipated the aftermath or the out­pouring of forgiveness from victims' families. Kevin Sack is a veteran journalist and Jacksonville native who has written about national affairs for more than four decades and has been part of three Pulitzer Prize–winning teams. His debut book, Mother Emanuel, is a sweeping history of the first AME church in the South and a profound story of courage and grace amid the fight for racial justice.  A native of Jacksonville, Florida, and a graduate of Duke University, Kevin Sack spent thirty years on the staff of The New York Times, where he specialized in writing long-form narrative and investigative reports, often related to race. He also has written for the Los Angeles Times and The Atlanta Journal-Constitution, and his work has appeared in The New York Times Magazine. He was a 2019 Emerson Collective Fellow at New America.  Interviewer Isaiah Oliver is the third president of The Community Foundation for Northeast Florida, Florida's oldest and one of its largest community foundations, established in 1964. He leads a seasoned 30-person team that manages more than $700 million in assets and distributed over $85 million in grants in 2024. Isaiah's commitment to community leadership is evident through his service on the Jacksonville Civic Council and as Co-Chair of the Jacksonville Transformation Coalition. Nationally, he serves as Chair of the Board of Directors for CFLeads and holds board or advisory roles with the Dorothy A. Johnson Center for Philanthropy, ABFE (Association of Black Foundation Executives), Independent Sector, and the Council on Foundations Public Policy Advisory Committee. A Fellow of the inaugural class of the Civil Society Fellowship—a partnership of the AntiDefamation League and The Aspen Institute—Isaiah is also a member of the Aspen Global Leadership Network.   --- Never miss an event!

Given recent events, we have decided not to release a new episode this week. Instead, given rising concerns about state retribution to political violence and the weaponization of law enforcement, we are re-releasing our conversation with Lerone A. Martin from February, in which he discusses his book The Gospel of J. Edgar Hoover. _________________________________________________________ This week, Kelly and John are joined by Lerone A. Martin to discuss his unfortunately timely and prescient book, The Gospel of J. Edgar Hoover: How the FBI Aided and Abetted the Rise of White Christian Nationalism.

He also serves as the Director of the Martin Luther King, Jr. Research and Education Institute at Stanford University. He's is an award-winning author. The Gospel of J. Edgar Hoover was published in February 2023 by Princeton University Press.

His commentary and writing have been featured on The NBC Today Show, The History Channel, PBS, CSPAN, and NPR, as well as in The New York Times, Boston Globe, CNN.com, and the Atlanta Journal-Constitution. He currently serves as an advisor on the upcoming PBS documentary series The History of Gospel Music & Preaching.

Wednesday night, from the Oval Office, we were told "the left" is the source of all that's poisonous in our political discourse, ironically by one of the most venomous vitriolic pursed lips in American political history. Fast-forward to today when we awaken to those lips flapping on 'Fox & Friends' to reveal that "we have him," the shooting suspect in the Charlie Kirk assassination. What's noteworthy about that visit to the curved couch was when he had the audacity to say “the radicals on the right oftentimes are radical because they don't want to see crime. They don't want to see crime. They're saying: We don't want these people coming in; we don't want you burning our shopping centers; we don't want you shooting our people in the middle of the street."Sure, hindsight's 20/20, but so is collected data that shows alt-right white nationalism far and away leads all participants when it comes to political violence, but hey, he couldn't have known the suspect - Tyler Robinson - was allegedly a Nick Fuentes fanatic, aka a "groyper." Yeah, the same Nick Fuentes Donald dined with. Derp. More on that ⁠HERE⁠ and ⁠HERE⁠. Not to be outdone, however, in the "tasting of shoe leather" competition is one Eric Erickson, the Omaha steak-hawking right wing radio provocateur who inherited many of his affiliates from the Rush Limbaugh I believed that sparked the ratcheting up of divisive and dangerous political rhetoric in this country. Eric penned an op/ed in the Atlanta Journal Constitution that hinted at "one side-ism," but had a markedly less partisan tone than his YouTube and in-show screed where he relentlessly finger-wagged at "the left" for it needing to police its own.Again, though, he popped off before the savvy folks on X who know a thing or two about Fuentes' groyper movement and had the ability to read into the subtle messaging on shell casings to connect the dots.

All the work (to his credit!) that Georgia Governor Brian Kemp has done to make Georgia a green energy and electric vehicle manufacturing hub are slowly being undone by Trump 2.0 white nationalist tendencies. The recent Hyundai raid in southeast Georgia performed by ICE was launched to snag Latin American migrant workers but also - oops - ensnared Korean and Japanese visa waiver employees, putting strain on U.S.-Korean and Georgia-Korean relations. It also creates an unnecessary impediment towards completing the construction of the plant soon to hire 8000 Georgians. You know ICE wasn't prepared to deal with Koreans when you realize they had not one Korean interpreter among them.But here's the thing: among the few dozen Hispanic construction workers that were swept up, some may have legal status and the others appear to be hires of quickly-popped up LLCs who appeared days before or after the announcement of the plant's construction, leaving local contractors receiving far less of the economic impact they were expecting. Through it all, though, the currency of choice for Trump 2.0 - fear and intimidation - has people here legally, as well, cowering. ------Brad Raffensperger hasn't announced what his 2026 political aspirations are, but his former chief operating officer - Gabriel Sterling - has. So far, no Democrat has announced their intention to seek the office of Secretary of State as Sterling and two other Democrats have, and it's my view that it may not matter if the party fielded a candidate at all but someone needs to step up quickly and start making the case. Raffensperger, meanwhile, has made it clear he's running for something, that "something" likely the governor's office, which presents an interesting and tantalizing opportunity for Democrats to cross lines and vote for the far lesser of the batch of evils in the GOP gubernatorial race - if Democrats manage to have a clear favorite by primary election day.-------The decision by the Atlanta Journal-Constitution to shutter its print operations by the end of the year is unsurprising, but has me concerned about access for the poor, but also got me to talking about the trajectory even radio is headed towards - which might not necessarily be a bad thing given talk radio being mostly gripped by right wing extremism. Indulge me, if you will, while I also take the opportunity to tout what this show does and plans for the station it airs on out of Atlanta.

He is co-author with Jason Jones of “God, Guns, & the Government.”   John Zmirak's new book: No Second Amendment, No First  by John Zmirak  Available March 19, 2024 Today's Left endlessly preaches the evils of “gun violence." It is a message increasingly echoed from the nation's pulpits, presented as common-sense decency and virtue. Calls for “radical non-violence” are routinely endowed with the imprimatur of religious doctrine.   But what if such teachings were misguided, even damaging? What if the potential of a citizenry to exercise force against violent criminals and tyrannical governments is not just compatible with church teaching, but flows from the very heart of Biblical faith and reason? What if the freedoms we treasure are intimately tied to the power to resist violent coercion?  This is the long-overdue case John Zmirak makes with stunning clarity and conviction in No Second Amendment, No First. A Yale-educated journalist and former college professor, Zmirak shows how the right of self-defense against authoritarian government was affirmed in both the Old and New Testaments, is implied in Natural Law, and has been part of Church tradition over the centuries.   --------------------------------------------------------------------
