Podcasts about Bacon

In this episode, host Pete Moore sits down with Carrie Bacon, a classically trained acupuncturist and co-founder of 180 Degrees Bathhouse in Kansas City. With decades of experience in acupuncture, bodywork, and holistic wellness (sparked by her own journey to recovery) Carrie talks about the intersection of contrast therapy, sauna culture, and acupuncture in building healthier communities. She shares her vision for micro bathhouses as hyper-local hubs combating the epidemic of loneliness and chronic health issues through social wellness, and her perspective on why mainstream medicine is poised for a return to more holistic modalities. If you're interested in scaling your HALO-sector venture, or leveraging new trends in recovery and community health, this episode is packed with a ton of takeaways. When it comes to the loneliness crisis, Bacon states, "Isolation was recently deemed a health epidemic. Loneliness is a health epidemic. And, being able to put bathhouses, which gives you access to that application of contrast therapy, you go into the sauna, you have your sweat, you take a moment of pause to allow your body to settle down and calm down, and then you rinse off and you step into a beautifully designed cold water basin." Key themes discussed Integration of contrast therapies for holistic wellness Acupuncture's role and mainstream adoption challenges Importance of personalized, non-prescriptive wellness protocols Foundations: Building strong health habits over optimization Social wellness and combating loneliness via community spaces Micro-bathhouse model for underserved markets Scaling wellness businesses: capital, education, and community A Few Key Takeaways 1. Reshaping Recovery-Move Beyond Protocols to Daily Practice: Carrie emphasizes the importance of integrating modalities like sauna, cold plunge, and acupuncture into daily routines rather than obsessing over rigid optimization protocols. She explains that "some of these modalities are just meant to be interwoven as daily practices, not necessarily only for recovery optimization." This habitual approach can create a stronger foundation of health and reduce the need for constant targeted recovery 06:17. 2. Reframing Wellness Facilities-The Micro Bathhouse Model: Bacon lays out her vision for 180 Degrees Bathhouse—a micro, 1,600 sq ft venue designed to bring thermic wellness to underserved markets. Rather than chasing massive, urban flagship bathhouses, she's pioneering a right-sized, community-driven model to increase adoption in areas where the concept is virtually unknown 16:08. 3. Acupuncture's U.S. Potential-A Resurgence is Coming: Despite skepticism and slow mainstream acceptance in the U.S., Carrie forecasts a renaissance for acupuncture as the U.S. healthcare mindset shifts towards "healthspan over lifespan" and more holistic, root-cause approaches. She says the field is poised for a return to "thousands of years of medical discipline before we started looking at the system so microscopically" 10:18. 4. Loneliness as a Wellness Crisis, and Bathhouses as the Solution: Both Carrie and Pete underscore the declared national epidemic of loneliness. Carrie positions the bathhouse as a "community center," tackling isolation and enabling organic, meaningful social connections. The micro model creates a "third space" where you can be with a group or on your own, but never truly alone 17:18. 5. Bathhouse Modalities Provide Metabolic and Mental Benefits: Bacon highlights the scientifically supported impacts of sauna and cold plunge: increased metabolic flexibility, better glucose/insulin control, and cardiovascular benefits all while building self-mastery. These accessible, self-directed practices are particularly relevant for addressing major public health issues such as obesity and diabetes 24:00.

In this episode of The Checkin with Dwyane Wade, Dwyane and Bob open with pure nostalgia, Bob’s old DJ name “DJ Bowlegs,” his high school dance group “Skinny Boys in the House,” and how Miami teens had to verbally pitch themselves over the phone and verify their weight at Publix before a date. Dwyane talks about his post-NBA recovery routine, steam, sauna, cold plunge, massages, and chiropractic work, visiting Zaya’s school for three days with his dad waking up to grits and bacon, and Zaya’s 19th birthday at Nobu alongside her second annual Translatable Ball. On business, he shares his pride in Steph Curry joining Li-Ning with the Wade brand and how risky that original signing felt 14 years ago. They also get into Druski hosting the BET Awards, the new Scary Movie, and Dwyane going full fan mode yelling at the TV during a Bears game before closing out the “But Why?” segment with Bob’s recycled lunch sign peeve and Dwyane going off about people touching his clothes when he’s in white.

What happens when ambition becomes more important than humanity? In the late 1800s, America is undergoing a dramatic transformation. Coal mines are expanding, fortunes are being built, industrialists are becoming powerful, and entire communities are being reshaped by the machinery of the Industrial Age. But beneath the booming industry is another story—one about the people living in its shadow. In Dr. James Gregory's new novel, Ghost Town, we meet Sammy Murphy, a young man growing up in the isolated coal-mining town of Sulphur Creek. His world is one of solitude, shadowy tunnels, and secrets. And then there's Barry Bacon, an ambitious industrialist who dreams of becoming a titan like Andrew Carnegie. Bacon believes power and success are within his grasp—but his unchecked ambition may ultimately threaten everything he's built. As Sammy discovers love and begins to emerge from his isolation, and Bacon watches his empire begin to unravel, the two men are forced to confront very different questions about power, connection, and what it means to truly belong. Today, Dr. James Gregory joins us to talk about Ghost Town, America's industrial past, the psychology of ambition, the meaning of love, and why a story set in the coal fields of the nineteenth century may have something surprisingly urgent to say about our lives today.

Darren Grimes and Graham Dunlop launch their new Grimoire platform, a global book club built around 250 plus professionally narrated audiobooks, lunar-cycle book picks, and community participation. They also demo a new online Pegs and Jokers game, whil e walking through the shelves of the library and explaining how free access, founder memberships, and the inner sanctum work. https://pegsandjokers.ca/ https://www.skool.com/the-secret-teachings-book-club-1875   In this episode, Darren and Graham cover the launch setup, the membership model, and the structure of the new book club. They also preview the first book of the month, discuss how the shelves are organized, and share the thinking behind the game and the community features. Key topics In this episode: the Grimoire launches with more than 250 audiobooks, with the library expected to grow to around 260 soon. The free book of the month is The Secret Teachings of All Ages in an abridged edition, chosen because starting with the full 36 hour version would be too much for most listeners. Founder keeper and monthly initiate memberships unlock the full library, while the free tier gives access to the monthly featured book and community activity. The book club is organized around lunar cycles, with a new moon monthly pick and a full moon live read, creating a rhythm of one book per moon month. The community model includes chapter check-ins, passage discussions, Friday tangents, and a final live book council in the last week of each book month. Darren and Graham describe the inner sanctum as a deeper, earned area of the platform, accessible through participation rather than payment alone. The shelves span Hermetica and occult, theosophy, mysticism east and west, Atlantis and Fortiana, mind and prosperity, weird fiction, philosophy and classics, magic, and power and propaganda. They highlight standout titles such as The Purple Cloud, The Machine Stops, Atlantis by Ignatius Donnelly, The Book of Thoth, Psychic Self-Defense, The Power of Positive Thinking, and The Road to Serfdom. Graham demos Pegs and Jokers, explaining how the online version works, how the cards move pieces, and why it is meant to be played with friends and family across locations. They mention the platform is still being cleaned up and reorganized, including moving some books between shelves and adding PDFs and other support material.   Become a Lord or Lady with 1k donations over time.

What if cortisol isn't the reason you can't lose weight — and your metabolism isn't broken either?Michelle MacDonald brings back nutrition scientist and coach Dr. Allan Bacon for a conversation that dismantles two of the most persistent myths circulating in women's fitness right now. Together they break down exactly what cortisol is actually doing in your body during exercise, why zone two cardio lowers cortisol for the rest of the day even though it raises it for two hours (and why no one selling you a supplement is going to show you that part of the graph), and why elevated cortisol simply cannot prevent fat loss when you're in a calorie deficit: because there's nothing left to store. They also dig into the landmark Pontzer research tracking resting metabolic rate in thousands of men and women from ages 20 to 63, including through the menopause transition, and what it actually shows about metabolism, muscle loss, and the claims being made by wellness influencers selling mushroom tea. Then they get practical, covering calorie tracking errors, raw vs. cooked food measurements, pre-planning meals, and the three things Dr. Bacon tells every client who has been doing everything right and still isn't seeing results. This episode is for anyone who has been told their hormones are working against them and is starting to wonder if there's a simpler explanation.Favorite Moments*- 2:10 What Cortisol Is Actually Doing — and What It Isn't- 3:27 Cortisol Spikes During Exercise Are a Feature, Not a Bug- 4:46 Zone Two vs. HIIT: Why Both Get Fear-Mongered for the Same Hormone- 5:57 Cortisol Is Both a Fat-Storing and a Fat-Burning Hormone (and Supplement Sellers Only Tell You Half the Story)- 7:57 Zone Two Cardio Raises Cortisol for Two Hours — Then Lowers It Below Baseline for the Rest of the Day- 21:19 "If You Really Want to Spike Your Cortisol, Worry About Cortisol"- 24:45 The Pontzer Research: Resting Metabolic Rate Doesn't Change From Age 20 to 63- 28:14 The Swan Study's "Double Muscle Loss" Claim — What the Actual Numbers Look Like- 36:30 Calorie Tracking Errors: The Average Person Is Off by 500 Calories a Day- 40:26 Raw vs. Cooked: The Measurement Mistake Almost Everyone Makes- 52:18 The Three-Part Audit for Anyone Who Isn't Seeing Progress- 56:00 Motivation Is the Result of Action, Not the Cause of It- 58:54 Why Intensity Becomes the Name of the Game After Newbie Gains Are Gone- 59:57 Stretching Reduces Injury Risk 0 to 4%.

This episode is a freewheeling mash-up of offbeat banter, nostalgia and a running litany of terrible inventions. Our hosts riff on everything from Crystal Pepsi, Jolt Cola and Segways to Google Glasses and QR-code menus — skewering the logic (or lack of it) behind each idea. They weave in personal asides about tattoos, childhood heroes, road-trip listening, and the perils of self-checkout. Expect toilet humor, product deep-dives like bacon- and pickle-flavored toothpastes, and a recurring “joke grenade” that lands later. It's messy, irreverent, and intentionally all over the tracks — in the best Tangent Station tradition.

Daniel Bacon has amassed a long list of credits: more than 150 credits in film and television and more than 20 in the theatre. He played Bonecruncher, one of the man-eating giants, in The BFG – which was directed by an up-and-coming indie director – maybe you've heard of him – Steven Spielberg. He appeared in The Smashing Machine and Secrets of a Marine's Life. He's guest starred on shows like The Irrational, Motherland Fort Salem, Limetown, and The Good Doctor. He played in all three seasons of Paranormal Solutions Inc., including an episode where his character – an injured member of the PSI team – is injured and nursed back to health by Sasquatch, played with the gentle touch of a Wookiee on Life Day by Dave Collette. He's appeared in dozens of Hallmark Movies, and was mayor in at least eight of them. And all this, after getting his start in a boy band and touring malls across Canada (like contemporaries Tiffany, Debbie Gibson, and Robin Sparkles). All that is to say that Daniel has a lot of experience in the entertainment biz, and a lot of knowledge to share. On Wednesday, August 12, he'll teach his very popular online workshop called “Own Your Audition” for The Drama Class, which you might remember is run by friends of the pod Cat Lough Haggquist and Bronwen Smith. Daniel's class helps actors develop a process and a confidence in how to make choices that help your audition stand out – which, in this new era of self tapes, is especially important.In this fascinating and contemplative episode, Daniel talks about his boy band era, his time with Sasquatch, and how actors can make an impact with their self-tapes, and also shares his still-unfolding adoption story (which should be a movie all on its own). YVR Screen Scene is a division of Fish Flight Entertainment.

Is adrenal fatigue even real, or have we all been chasing the wrong diagnosis? I sat down with Dr. Allan Bacon, a dentist turned nutrition and powerlifting coach who has built his career sitting in the middle ground between conventional medicine and the wellness world, calling out both sides when the science says they've gotten it wrong. And one of the most eye opening parts of this conversation was about adrenal fatigue, a term so many of us have used to describe our own exhaustion. Dr. Bacon walked me through why it isn't actually a recognized medical diagnosis, what's really going on in our bodies when we feel that drained, and why the label matters so much for finding something that actually helps. We also get into the placebo effect, the truth about peptides like BPC-157, and what the research really says about our metabolism in midlife. We Go Deep On:  Why "adrenal fatigue" isn't an actual medical diagnosis, and what it means that our adrenals are usually functioning just fine The real reason we feel that drained, and why "stress and burnout" is a more accurate description than adrenal fatigue What actually helps when we're running on empty, including specific, research backed options like glycine and magnesium Why the placebo effect showed up as a 22 pound strength jump in trained powerlifters, and what that means for how we think about our own bodies What the research does and doesn't say about BPC-157 and peptides A landmark study showing metabolism doesn't actually change from age 20 to 60, and what that means for the way we've been told to think about midlife Catch the full episode on YOUTUBE HERE: https://bit.ly/MidlifeConversationsYouTube   Learn More About Dr. Allan Bacon Instagram ➜ https://www.instagram.com/drallanbacon  Website ➜  https://mauiathletics.com/  Thank you to our show sponsors:  TIMELINE: Timeline is offering 20% off your order of Mitopure!

This week, Chris and Jamal get into one of the biggest philosophical questions Wayfarer has faced since the transition to Scopely Explore: should gameplay finally have a seat at the table? They debate whether legitimate location edits that improve the gameboard should still be considered abuse, discuss if Scopely should be more transparent about S2 cells and inclusion rules, and imagine what Wayfarer would look like if it were built from scratch by a gaming company instead of a mapping company. Before diving into the topics, Chris responds to a lively Reddit discussion surrounding last week's episode and clarifies his thoughts on Wayfarer, player data, and Niantic's original mission. Chris responds to last week's Reddit debate and clears up the context behind his comments. A major Wayfarer update now lets you finish draft submissions from anywhere without returning to the nomination location. Should gameplay optimization still be considered abuse if the final pin location remains accurate? If Scopely built Wayfarer from scratch today, what rules would stay, what would change, and what would disappear? One's Gotta Go: Pizza Toppings Edition (Pepperoni, Sausage, Bacon, or Mushrooms?) Wayspots of the Week feature a stunning dog park mural and a beautifully designed boardwalk entrance. Coal of the Week highlights why Little Free Libraries on K–12 school property should never be nominated. A thought-provoking discussion about the future of Wayfarer under Scopely, Chris' Reddit rebuttal, another community debate sparked by One's Gotta Go, and a pair of fantastic community-submitted Wayspots that showcase exactly what makes exploring so much fun.

July 28, 2026- Gov. Kathy Hochul championed tort reform to bring down car insurance costs, so what other legal liability changes should policymakers consider to address affordability? We consider a range of options from Cary Silverman, a partner with Shook, Hardy & Bacon.

Like an idiot, I decided to work on my backyard firepit yesterday in the extreme heat. We got six of the nine circles done before calling it quits after about two hours. It was absolutely brutal…and I will never make that mistake again. Needless to say, I'm dragging ass today. Thankfully, we had a MAJOR concert announcement this morning, which helped perk me up a bit. In case you missed it, Godsmack & Dorothy are coming to the La Crosse Center on Friday, October 16th!!!

Great story from New Jersey about a cop who helped deliver a baby in a parking lot, and a dog that's been missing for five years gets reunited with it's owner. Apparently, some people are eating more iceberg lettuce & trying to get the explosive diarrhea so they'll lose weight. Elsewhere in sports, Ryan Lasko is starting to get feeling in his legs, a squirrel gets on the field and the grounds crew has a hell of a time trying to corral it, and a soccer team wins a title after 75 years of trying! In a new round of "Who'd You Rather"...$50k in cash immediately, or a coin-flip for a shot at $1 million?

Sammy Murphy is the firstborn child in Sulfur Creek, an isolated coal mining town located on a rich seam of Bituminous coal discovered by a young gentleman born of wealth in the late 19th Century, the golden age of America's Industrial Revolution. The historical novel follows the life of Sammy from birth to death, capturing his transformation and struggles as a reclusive character, juxtaposed with his boss, who personifies the era's industrial barons. Barry Bacon, who grew up in luxury on Fifth Avenue in New York, is an ambitious American industrialist who fancies himself a peer to iron and steel magnate Andrew Carnegie. Driven by unbridled ambition, Bacon's dreams stretch far beyond the soot-covered rooftops of Sulfur Creek. His tale of arrogance and flawed leadership chronicles the precipitous rise and fall that mirrors the volatile spirit of the industrial age.

Holy crap are we loaded with stuff this morning! In the news, a recall on a popular fruit puree, the results of an independent autopsy on Nolan Wells, a deadly shooting in Madison, a garbage truck in Milwaukee explodes, William Shatner and his daughter reveal their recent battles with cancer, the wreckage of a Pan Am plane is located 74 years after it crashed, and wild video of a leopard attacking a shop owner in India! In sports, the Brewers beat the Mets last night for another series win, the Red Sox finally lost after winning 15 in a row, the Packers start training camp next week, Caitlin Clark gets another tech & is one away from a one-game suspension, the cover athletes for NBA2K are announced, and the Angels fired a scout for illegally taping other teams.

Conan O'Brien explains what happened to his hair after recent pics of him went viral, a sequel to "Days of Thunder" is in the works, and the Ghostface from the "Scary Movie" franchise launches an OnlyFans account. Great story about a teen driver who trusted his gut & checked on a car in a ditch…which led to him possibly saving a woman's life! As we always do on Thursday mornings, we asked each other Hypothetical questions…and Brian's question for Jean was: "If you could only listen to music with one form of media for the rest of your life, what would it be? Tapes/Records/CDs/MP3s" While Jean's question for Brian was: " " Elsewhere in sports, Sophie Cunningham clarifies her statements on trans athletes, Charlie Woods gets interrupted in his backswing, the latest on the Cubs fan who slapped another fan when they refused to stand for the National anthem, an American cyclist gets brake-checked by a car before a stage at the Tour de France, and an update on the Puka Nacua bite allegations.

What are the unwritten rules of Long Island? Tom Kelly and video producer Steve Burger take over Lucharitos on Walt Whitman Road in Melville to debate the rules every real Long Islander seems to know—even though nobody ever wrote them down. After asking Facebook for answers and getting more than 1,000 responses, Tom breaks down the biggest Long Island rules: never park in front of someone else's house, always say you live on Long Island, order your bacon, egg and cheese correctly, move out of the left lane, know your deli order before reaching the counter, and never question Long Island pizza, bagels, or Billy Joel. The conversation also covers Long Island accents, Jamaica Station anxiety, pizza-folding etiquette, buttered rolls, the Southern State, "going out east," and why Queens and Brooklyn may be geographically on the same island—but are not considered Long Island. This is Part 1 of the Long Island Unwritten Rules series, recorded live at Lucharitos in Melville.

The World Cup already felt like the biggest sporting event on the planet. Then this year, they expanded from 32 teams to 48.

Third-party litigation funding has grown into a major part of modern civil litigation. Supporters argue it expands access to justice and helps under-resourced plaintiffs challenge powerful defendants. Critics argue it can distort litigation incentives, empower foreign or opaque funders, and undermine attorney-client control of litigation. As state legislatures and Congress consider restrictions and disclosure requirements, how should policymakers balance transparency, donor privacy, access to courts, national security, and attorney ethics? Is third-party litigation funding a threat to the integrity of the civil justice system that conservatives should rein in, or a market mechanism that conservatives should protect as a counterweight to institutional lawfare? Can the foreign-adversary money problem be severed from the broader regulatory question? Join us for a discussion of these and other issues surrounding the financing of litigation.

Incredible archival photos of the studio as it was at 7 Reece Mews by photographer Perry Ogden.  Great written interview of Bacon by Photographer Francis Giacobetti. Go here for a transcript of the podcast and to see an image of Bacon's Studio at Hugh Lane Gallery. Frances Bacon and The Hugh Lane Gallery info, lots of images on this site as well.  Correction:I mention in the podcast that "Bacon was not a trust fund baby." But in truth his mother was an heiress to a fortune from coal mining. But Bacon did not get that money.  His relationship with his family was strained (it seems due to violence and anti- homosexual bigotry that he was on the receiving end of in childhood.) He may have received a small stipend from them, but not enough to live on. His early career was filled with debt. Other Charmed Studio Posts You Might Like: How To Get an Artist's Residency?

Agradece a este podcast tantas horas de entretenimiento y disfruta de episodios exclusivos como éste. ¡Apóyale en iVoox! Queridos oyentes y mecenas. El episodio de hoy amplía la descripción de la Casa de Salomón y muestra hasta qué punto Bensalem ha convertido la ciencia en una actividad sistemática orientada a mejorar la vida humana. Sus investigadores experimentan con alimentos, bebidas, medicinas, materiales, fuentes de calor, luz, colores, óptica, sonidos, perfumes y sabores. También fabrican instrumentos desconocidos en Europa, desarrollan lentes capaces de observar lo muy lejano y lo diminuto, manipulan la intensidad y dirección de la luz, estudian ecos y transmisiones del sonido, y producen sustancias con propiedades nuevas. A ello se suma una extraordinaria capacidad técnica: crean máquinas más rápidas y potentes, mejoran la artillería, ensayan combustibles y cohetes, imitan el vuelo de las aves, construyen embarcaciones submarinas y desarrollan dispositivos para nadar, medir el tiempo y reproducir movimientos de seres vivos. Bacon presenta así una sociedad donde la investigación científica no es una curiosidad aislada, sino una empresa organizada que busca dominar los procesos de la naturaleza, ampliar las capacidades humanas y producir conocimientos y tecnologías útiles.

Fireworks or gun shots?!

When you visit a doctor, you assume the diagnosis and treatment will be based entirely on your symptoms and medical history. But there is another factor that can quietly influence what happens in the exam room and the quality of the care you receive. And it has nothing to do with your health. https://qualitysafety.bmj.com/content/26/1/13 Bacon may be one of the most beloved foods in America. People wrap it around other foods, crumble it onto salads, put it in desserts, and even flavor cocktails with it. What's especially interesting is that bacon's popularity has continued to grow despite years of warnings from health experts about its risks. So what is it about bacon that has captured the American imagination? Why has it become more than just a breakfast food and evolved into a cultural phenomenon? Mark Johnson, who teaches at the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga, traces bacon's unlikely rise from humble pork product to national obsession. He is author of American Bacon: The History of a Food Phenomenon (https://amzn.to/4odStxo). When you mix money with emotions, all kinds of things can go wrong – and often do. That's according to Jade Warshaw. She is a personal finance coach and co-host of The Ramsey Show with Dave Ramsey. She and her husband paid off more than $400,000 in debt and transformed their financial lives. Now she is on a mission to help people understand how money works, how your emotions impact what you do with your money and how to get back on track. Her latest book is What No One Tells You About Money: The Real Key to Getting Unstuck from Someone Who's Been There (https://amzn.to/4fMAGv9). Your brain is remarkably good at many things. Holding onto a growing list of errands, appointments, reminders, and unfinished tasks is NOT one of them. In fact, trying to keep everything in your head can increase stress and mental clutter.

Sometime before dawn on July 2, 1951, a 67-year-old St. Petersburg widow was reduced to ash in her own armchair while the room around her sat almost untouched, leaving behind little more than a shrunken skull, a piece of spine, and a single foot still resting in its slipper.EPISODE BLOG PAGE (includes sources): https://weirddarkness.com/MaryHardyReeserREAD or DOWNLOAD the full transcript of this episode: https://weirddarkness.tiny.us/2p88de8vFEATURED STORIES IN THIS EPISODE: When police found her in 1951, she was almost entirely ash. But mysteriously, the rest of her apartment remained almost perfectly intact. We'll look at the death of Mary Reeser – which became known as “The Cinder Woman Case”. (Did Mary Hardy Reeser Spontaneously Combust?) *** Most crimes are pretty ordinary – assault, robbery, the occasional murder, but once in a while a crime is committed in a strange, shocking way – to the point it's almost hard to believe what you are hearing is a true story. I'll share a few of those strange crimes. (Creepy Crimes and Crazy Criminals) *** One of the reasons we find chimpanzees so interesting is because they are so much like humans – in body shape, the way they express themselves, it's eerie sometimes. But still, we know they are just apes. Then there is the strange case of Oliver – a chimpanzee that also appeared to be human. Or was he a human that appeared to be a chimpanzee? Or, is it possible, that Oliver was a genuine genetic hybrid of the two? We'll look at his incredibly strange story. (Oliver, The Humanzee) *** Some hauntings are more terrifying than others – and some are stranger than others. What happened to the Palzon family in Zaragoza, Spain possibly qualifies for both. They didn't have a typical haunting – this was no poltergeist or spirit of a recently passed person… they were terrorized by a horrifying goblin. (The Zaragoza Goblin) *** Most haunted paintings are hundreds of years old – but one in particular was painted in the late 20th Century, and to many, it is the most disturbing painting they've ever laid eyes on.

Copyright ©2026, Weird Darkness.Originally aired: November, 2021This episode of Weird Darkness ranges from a 1951 Florida death that investigators could not explain, to a painting blamed for three deaths, a chimpanzee long mistaken for a human hybrid, a catalog of bizarre real-world crimes, and a disembodied voice that terrorized a Spanish apartment building in 1934.It opens with the morning of July 2, 1951, when landlady Pansy Carpenter found the doorknob to apartment 1200 Cherry Street in St. Petersburg, Florida hot to the touch and called police, who discovered that 67-year-old widow Mary Hardy Reeser had been reduced almost entirely to ash. Only her skull, shrunken to roughly the size of a teacup, a section of spine, and a left foot still in its slipper remained, while the apartment around her showed little more than soot on the ceiling and a recliner burned down to its springs. A greasy film coating the walls and floor was later identified by the FBI, which devoted a 115-page report to the case, as melted human fat. Her son, Dr. Richard Reeser, had left her around 8 p.m. the night before, resting in her favorite recliner in a Van Raalte rayon-acetate nightgown with a freshly lit cigarette. Investigators ruled out lightning, accelerants, and any motive for murder, which left two explanations in contention — a dropped cigarette that set her flammable nightgown alight and rendered her body into a slow-burning wick, or spontaneous human combustion — for the death that came to be known as the Cinder Woman case.From there the episode turns to William Stoneham's 1972 oil painting The Hands Resist Him, a 36-by-24-inch canvas showing a young boy beside a hollow-eyed, life-size doll while disembodied hands press against a glass door behind them. Stoneham based the boy on a photograph of himself at age five at his grandmother's Chicago apartment and drew the title from a 1971 poem by his first wife, Rhoann Ponseti. The work gained its reputation in February 2000, when a couple listed it on eBay as a haunted painting, claiming their four-and-a-half-year-old daughter saw the figures leave the canvas at night and that a motion-sensor camera caught the boy crawling out and the doll holding a gun; the listing drew more than 30,000 views and sold for $1,050. Its lore also ties three deaths to the painting — art critic Henry Seldis in 1978, gallery owner Charles Feingarten in 1981, and Godfather actor John Marley in 1984 — and the canvas now sits in the back room of Kim Smith's Perception Fine Art Gallery in Grand Rapids, Michigan.Next comes the story of Oliver, a chimpanzee captured in the Congo around 1957 who walked upright by nature, had a flatter and more human-looking face, light-colored eyes, pattern baldness, and a soft voice, and was marketed as a humanzee, a supposed human-chimpanzee hybrid and missing link. Owned by animal trainers Frank and Janet Berger, who featured him on The Ed Sullivan Show, Oliver drank morning coffee, mixed his own evening cocktails, and moved loads with a wheelbarrow, and early claims that he carried 47 chromosomes fed the hybrid theory. After being passed among several owners and confined for years in a small cage at the Buckshire Company laboratory, where he developed arthritis and muscular atrophy, he was rescued in 1996 to a chimpanzee sanctuary, where University of Chicago testing established that he had the ordinary chimpanzee count of 48 chromosomes and belonged to a Central African subspecies already known for human-like features. Oliver died in his sleep on June 2, 2012, beside a companion named Raisin, and his ashes were spread on the sanctuary grounds.After that, the episode collects a series of strange real-world crimes, starting with California inmate Jaime Osuna, already serving a life sentence for the 2011 murder of Yvette Pena, who killed his cellmate Luis Romero in 2019 and fashioned parts of the body into a necklace. It then moves to Michigan and the 2019 murder of 25-year-old Kevin Bacon by Mark Latunski, a man Bacon had met through a Christmas Eve date on Grindr, and to Scotland, where a crew of thieves made off with roughly £280,000 in blue WKD alcopops from Caledonian Bottlers. Other cases include a Chennai airport smuggling ring caught in March 2021 with gold paste hidden beneath hairpieces, a Cleveland man named Michael Harrel who handed a bank teller a robbery note for $206 with his own name and contact details written on the back, and a Florida man, Matthew Leatham, arrested after dialing 911 twice to ask for a ride home, his forehead tattooed with the outline of the state. The grimmest case belongs to Shabaz Khan of Burnley, England, who blamed two djinn he called Robert and Rita for driving him to murder Dr. Saman Mir Sacharvi and her 14-year-old daughter Vian Mangrio before setting their home on fire.The episode closes with the Goblin of Zaragoza, which began on September 27, 1934, when a maid named Pascuala Alcocer, alone in the kitchen of the Palazon family's second-floor apartment on Gascón de Gotor street in Zaragoza, Spain, heard a child-like male voice rise from the stove complaining that she was hurting it. Over the following weeks the disembodied voice spoke from the stove, the chimney, and the walls, by turns playful and menacing, and grew into laughter, growls, and screaming that at one point seemed to shake the entire building. Spanish police, a psychiatrist named Joaquin Jimen Orriera, and an architect all investigated, and the voice continued even after Pascuala was led

Dave makes a warm vinaigrette in his version of a Lyonnaise salad using a tip he learned in his earlier cooking days: using drippings. He makes a roast chicken vinaigrette, as well as a bacon dressing that his brother used to make for him. He talks about frisée, poaching eggs, and how to crisp up limp roast chicken skin in the oven.Chris Ying joins him at the end for a little friendly competition that ends with one of them eating a hot pepper and hardly being able to speak and finish the episode.Watch our previous vinaigrette episode: https://open.spotify.com/episode/6xuXeYrzRbXot1dJbU6qoT?si=RNmCnkV8Q5S1qgplAYA7mgLearn more about Cafe Boulud: https://cafeboulud.com/nyc/Learn more about Zuni Café: https://zunicafe.com/With Vrbo, what you book is what you get.
