Long before Bryan Kohberger's name surfaced, the Idaho murders internet had already picked a killer — and picked wrong, aiming years of cruelty at a man who'd just lost the love of his life. This episode is about who these theories hurt, and what they're really hiding. We begin with the wrongly-accused ex and the innocent, gut-wrenching reason a victim kept calling him that last night. Then the doubts, one by one: the eight-hour gap before 911, the survivors' phone activity that morning, the weaponizing of a young woman's private writing, the they-were-spared-so-they-must-be-involved theory, and the alternate suspects a judge threw out. Then the heavy ones — the missing motive, and why it isn't the proof of innocence people treat it as, and the plea, including the honest fact that innocent people sometimes confess under pressure, and why this case is the opposite of those. This is the episode that respects the questions and still answers them, and reminds you what it costs real people when a crowd needs a villain. And it ends where it has to — not on the theories, but on Kaylee, Madison, Xana, and Ethan, and the families who don't get the luxury of a mystery. Why does the why still haunt this case?

Eric Dym Returns! The Finest Unfiltered crew is back together again for another hard-hitting episode of New York's Finest: Retired & Unfiltered Podcast as they break down one of the most controversial lawsuits to emerge from the Midtown mass shooting. An injured NFL employee has filed a lawsuit against New York City, alleging slain NYPD officer failed to stop the gunman before he was wounded. The lawsuit raises difficult legal and policy questions after the murder of Detective Didarul Islam, who was killed during the attack. The crew discusses: ️ Can a negligence lawsuit succeed under these circumstances? What are the legal standards governing police response during active shooter incidents? Is it appropriate to second-guess the actions of an officer who made the ultimate sacrifice? What precedent could lawsuits like this set for law enforcement across America? Also on today's show: NYPD's former top psychologist files explosive lawsuit, alleging retaliation after reporting what she claims were unethical practices within the department. Child gun offenders in NYC have surged 133%, according to newly released NYPD data, fueling renewed debate over juvenile justice policies and criminal accountability. ️ The latest developments from City Hall affecting public safety and the NYPD.

Corporatism Is The Problem. But Disappearing Freedom & True Capitalism Are Blamed by Ron Paul Liberty Report
A pool finish can look “ruined” overnight, yet the real cause might be completely normal plaster behavior. I walk through the plaster problems that trigger the loudest complaints, the ones that quietly build over months, and the ones that only show up years later, right when the pool service pro is the easiest target. If you've ever inherited a pool with weird discoloration, streaks, or blotchy shading and felt your stomach drop, this conversation is for you.We talk about plaster modeling and why mottling is often a natural part of cement-based pool surfaces, especially with colored plaster. I share why startup water chemistry matters so much, including what I've seen when total alkalinity is left too low after an acid startup or hot startup, and why I prefer a traditional pool startup with heavy circulation. You'll also hear what white spotting and spot etching can look like, plus how trowel marks, dye batch changes, crazing, and localized etching can come from application, mix, or curing conditions rather than weekly maintenance.Then we get practical: the fill-day mistakes that can permanently mark new plaster, like shutting the hose off before the pool reaches the tile line or using the autofill and leaving a runoff stain. Finally, I cover late-blooming issues like calcium nodules and why they can appear two to three years after the build, plus the pebble finish rust spots that start like algae but may actually be metal in the pebble and need a manufacturer repair.If you work in pool service or you're a pool owner trying to make sense of surface changes, subscribe, share this with a friend who's dealing with plaster drama, and leave a review with the plaster issue you want me to tackle next.I break down the plaster changes that make pool owners panic and why the service pro often takes the blame even when the cause traces back to startup, workmanship, or the material itself. You'll learn how to recognize normal plaster modeling versus real defects, plus practical steps that reduce risk on new builds and protect your reputation.• why plaster discoloration often gets pinned on the service company• how modeling in plaster shows up over time, especially in colored finishes• why low alkalinity during startup can accelerate mottling• traditional startup basics, including high circulation and keeping chemicals in range• white spotting and spot etching tied to mix chemistry and microcracking• trowel marks, dye batch lines, crazing, and etching as workmanship or mix outcomes• fill-day mistakes that create permanent rings, streaks, and hose marks• curing risks like leaves, footprints, and pet paw prints becoming permanent• calcium nodules that appear years later and why they are hard to “prove”• pebble finish rust spots caused by metal in pebbles and how to get them fixedLearn more at swimmingpoollearning.com.If you're looking at my coaching program, you can learn more at poolgatecoaching.com.Send us Fan MailSupport the Pool Guy Podcast Show Sponsors!

Data engineer John Beaudoin Sr. obtained more than 1.6 million official death certificates through public-records requests and cross-referenced them against VAERS. He says the records show deaths were misclassified and vaccine injuries left off many certificates entirely. Beaudoin argues the agencies have refused to open individual case-file investigations that he says could establish causality, and that this refusal is itself the story. Among the claims is a cluster of infant deaths he says occurred within days of vaccination and were attributed on the records to other causes.

The owners of a beloved Christchurch nightclub that's about to close its doors for good say fewer young people are going clubbing. Adam Burns reports.
The strange activity began shortly after a beloved grandfather passed away. A humidifier appeared to lift off the floor. A drawer emptied itself without anyone touching it. And because the timing seemed obvious, the family assumed they knew who was behind it.But years later, after the home was converted into a duplex and rented out, the experiences became much harder to explain away.New tenants reported doors opening on their own, radios turning on and off, and unexplained perfume scents drifting through the house. Then a young boy encountered something in an upstairs bathroom that terrified him so badly his family moved out almost immediately.The question wasn't whether something was in the house. The question was whether it had ever been Grandpa at all.#RealGhostStories #ParanormalPodcast #HauntedHome #GhostStory #ShadowFigure #ParanormalActivity #HauntedHouseStories #TrueParanormal #UnexplainedEvents #SpiritEncounters Love real ghost stories?

The Justice Department's explanation for Jeffrey Epstein's death rests on the claim that a sweeping systemic breakdown occurred inside the Metropolitan Correctional Center: guards failed to conduct required rounds, records were falsified, Epstein was left without a cellmate, staffing was inadequate, supervision failed, and surveillance systems were defective. Yet if those failures were truly broad enough to explain how one of the most consequential federal detainees in modern history died behind bars, they should have triggered an equally broad response. Instead, there was no unmistakable national overhaul of federal detention practices, no transparent accounting of responsibility up the chain of command, no comprehensive public proof that staffing, suicide-prevention, surveillance, and supervisory failures were permanently corrected, and few consequences proportional to the scale of the disaster...That absence of reform does not by itself prove Epstein was murdered, but it badly weakens the government's credibility. The DOJ cannot use chronic understaffing, ignored procedures, malfunctioning equipment, and falsified records to explain his death while allowing many of those same problems to persist years later. “Systemic breakdown” has become a convenient way to spread blame so widely that almost no one is held meaningfully responsible. The government acknowledged enough institutional failure to defend its conclusion, but not enough to force the institution to change. Until there is full transparency, measurable reform, and serious accountability, the official explanation will continue to look less like a resolved case and more like a demand that the public simply trust the same system that failed.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com

The main opposition party is blaming the Government for Clare's dereliction problem. The coalition will announce plans for a new derelict property tax today, which will be administered by revenue after a launching a scathing criticism on local authority efforts to grapple the issue. Clare County Council says it has billed 60 sites this year to a value of over €510,000, however just over €48,700 of this has been collected. Shannon Sinn Féin TD Donna McGettigan believes local authorities weren't given the resources they needed.
Segment 1 • Todd introduces a sobering challenge: when outrageous stories make us angry, should our response be outrage, grief, or evangelism? • Does remembering God's coming judgment change how Christians view their cultural enemies? • A university professor blames a grieving father for his murdered son's death—how did we get here? Segment 2 • A shocking opinion piece turns a murder victim into the villain and the killer into the misunderstood party. • What happens when victimhood completely replaces personal responsibility? • Todd wrestles with how Christians should respond when public commentary seems to invert right and wrong. Segment 3 • An elected official comments on a murder case while admitting she doesn't know key facts. • Can claims of racism stand when they're built on assumptions rather than evidence? • Todd argues that the deepest problem isn't political confusion—it's spiritual blindness. Segment 4 • If miracles are "impossible," what happens to the resurrection? • Why do some professing Christians reinterpret supernatural events in Scripture? • A rapid-fire challenge to modern skepticism and selective Bible belief. ___ Thanks for listening!

Dive into the nature of spacetime and data center backlash in this Edge of Wonder Live. Visit https://rise.tv for more exclusive content! Visit https://metaphysicalcoffee.com for coffee that's out of this world! Physics & Time: The Soviet Union once classified a strange discovery in space. In 1985, a Russian cosmonaut watched a spinning wing nut flip 180° every few seconds in zero gravity—behavior that seemed to defy normal physics. This Dzhanibekov Effect (or Tennis Racket Theorem) remained secret for years because scientists at the time had no clear explanation. That's just the beginning. As humans explore deeper into space, we keep uncovering bizarre truths about space-time itself. By some measurements, time literally runs slower closer to Earth and speeds up the farther you move away from its gravity. The more we study spacetime, the more it appears to change our everyday understanding of reality. Data Centers: The legendary environmental activist Erin Brockovich is now leading the pushback against massive AI data centers. She's launching a nationwide map to track community complaints.

A regular nineteen-year-old with no criminal record stabbed his landlord to death with a pocketknife, then later claimed the demon he'd taunted into possessing him — instead of his fiancée's eleven-year-old brother — had crawled out of a well and into his body to commit the murder.EPISODE BLOG PAGE (includes sources and full transcript): https://weirddarkness.com/arnejohnsonREAD or DOWNLOAD the full transcript of this episode:https://weirddarkness.tiny.us/2p8n97s9FEATURED STORIES IN THIS EPISODE: The third Conjuring film is based on the true story of Arne Cheyenne Johnson who claimed he committed murder because a demon made him do it. But how much truth is there to that story? (The Devil Made Him Do It) *** A tribe living in the Amazon Jungle tells about a strange encounter they had with an extraterrestrial and a strange beam of light. (That Time An Alien Visited the Kayapo People) *** An elderly man decides he needs to hire someone to help him care for his property… but who he chose would bring only death and a mystery that still goes unsolved. (The Wonnangatta Station Murders) *** Lizard people. Reptilians. It's one of the strangest and most controversial conspiracy theories in existence – and we'll look at some of the history behind the idea, as well as what science says about the possibility of it being a reality. (The Myths and Modern Science of Reptilians) *** A nun who wasn't very good at being a nun ended up being a nun without a head. (The Headless Nun of Watton Priory) *** We've all been asked the question, “How do you want to die when it comes your time?” Aside from the boring but realistic answer of “quietly in my sleep” some would prefer to go out in a blaze of glory, doing something heroic to save a person or persons from imminent doom. But of course that does not happen for most of us. In fact, there are probably more people going out in a blaze of stupidity! (Dumbest Deaths) *** In 1995 Mike Marcum got it in his head to build a time machine. Did he succeed? We may never know – because he disappeared without a trace.

Copyright ©2026, Weird Darkness.Originally aired: November 17, 2021Weird Darkness host Darren Marlar leads listeners through seven dark tales spanning a courtroom plea of demonic possession, an unsolved double murder on a remote Australian cattle station, an Amazon tribe's memory of a sky visitor, the serpent-race conspiracy of reptilians, a centuries-old English haunting, history's most absurd deaths, and a Missouri man who vanished after trying to build a time machine.It opens with the 1981 killing of forty-year-old landlord Alan Bono in Brookfield, Connecticut, the first murder in the town's 193-year history, committed by his nineteen-year-old tenant Arne Cheyenne Johnson with a five-inch pocket knife. Johnson's attorney Martin Minnella attempted a plea of not guilty by reason of demonic possession, tracing the violence to months of torment suffered by eleven-year-old David Glatzel, the brother of Johnson's fiancée Debbie, who described a tormentor with black eyes, animal features, and hooves. Paranormal investigators Ed and Lorraine Warren declared it a genuine possession and claimed David levitated and stopped breathing across three exorcisms overseen by priests, while psychiatrists countered that the boy had a learning disability. Judge Robert Callahan rejected the supernatural defense as unprovable, Johnson was convicted of first-degree manslaughter on November 24, 1981, and the case later inspired the film The Conjuring: The Devil Made Me Do It.From there the episode travels to the remote Wonnangatta Station in Australia's Victorian Alps, where caretaker James Barclay hired English handyman John Bamford in 1917, a man rumored to have killed his own wife. After the two rode to Talbotville to vote on the Reinforcement Referendum in December 1917, mailman Harry Smith found the homestead empty but for the words "Home Tonight" chalked on the kitchen door, and weeks later he and Jack Jebb uncovered Barclay's decomposed body in a shallow creekside grave, dead from a shotgun blast to the back. The following November, Bamford's body surfaced in a log pile on the Howitt Plains with a bullet in the head, leaving investigators with a recently fired shotgun, traces of strychnine in the kitchen pepper, and no answer as to who killed the second man.Next comes the legend of the Kayapo people of the Brazilian Amazon, who tell of a sky visitor named Bep Kororoti who descended from the mountains of Pukato-Ti amid thunder, wielding a weapon that reduced trees and stones to dust and a beam of light that paralyzed anyone who fled his lessons. The being neither ate nor drank, taught the villagers practical skills, and eventually ascended back into the sky, and the account drew international attention when young Kayapo men touring Rio de Janeiro reportedly pointed at an Apollo 11 astronaut display and shouted that he had returned. Erich von Däniken cited photographs of Kayapo men in straw ritual costumes resembling spacesuits, taken by Joao Americo Peret in 1952, nearly a decade before Yuri Gagarin's 1961 spaceflight, as supposed support for the ancient astronaut theory.The discussion then turns to reptilians, tracing serpent-race myths found across Sumeria, Babylonia, India, China, and Mesoamerica, alongside the modern claims of David Icke that some humans are disguised lizard people. Set against the folklore, researcher Bjarke Jensen of Aarhus University lays out the actual biology: the human reptilian brain that governs heart rate and breathing, eyes structured much like a reptile's, and conductive heart tissue whose molecular building blocks Jensen's team located hidden in the spongy hearts of lizards, frogs, and zebrafish.The episode then visits Watton Priory in East Riding of Yorkshire, a Gilbertine community where, according to the twelfth-century account of Saint Aelred of Rievaulx, an orphaned girl named Elfleda fell in love with a young lay brother, was beaten and chained in a dungeon by the nuns, and was forced to watch as the man was mutilated. A second tragedy fastened itself to the same site after the 1644 Battle of Marston Moor, when Parliamentarian soldiers beheaded the Catholic Lady of Watton and killed her child, and over the centuries the two women blurred into a single spectral figure remembered as the Headless Nun, said to stand at the foot of the bed in blood-stained garments before vanishing.From there the show catalogs history's most absurd deaths, beginning with English Channel swimmer Matthew Webb, who drowned in the Niagara rapids in 1883, and the Spartan general Pausanias, sealed inside a temple of Athena and starved until he died moments after his release. The roll continues with Draco of Athens, smothered around 600 BC beneath cloaks and hats thrown in tribute; Sir Arthur Aston, beaten to death with his own wooden leg; the philosopher Heraclitus, who buried himself in cow dung hoping to cure his dropsy; lawyer Clement Vallandigham, who fatally shot himself in 1871 while demonstrating how a victim might have shot himself by accident; the Viking Sigurd the Mighty, killed by an infection from the sev

Many parents faithfully love, guide, and invest in their children, yet still find themselves facing challenges they never imagined. My guests for this and next week's podcast episodes, Kim and Michelle Humphrey, were devoted Christian parents who taught their two sons about Jesus, stayed actively involved in church, and warned them about the dangers of drugs. Kim served as a police officer, Michelle as a stay-at-home mom, and together they worked hard to create a loving home. Nothing could have prepared them for the heartbreak of watching both of their sons struggle with drug addiction. As their sons' addictions deepened, Kim and Michelle experienced not only grief and fear, but also isolation. Others blamed them, and they blamed themselves. Despite doing everything they knew to help, they often felt helpless and alone. Then they discovered PAL (Parents of Addicted Loved Ones), a support group that connected them with other parents walking a similar road. For the first time in years, they found understanding, encouragement, and hope. Their story offers comfort and strength to any parent carrying the burden of a child's destructive choices. Connect with Kim and Michelle: https://palforward.palgroup.org/who-is-pal/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/groups/229449267401069/ To inquire about counseling, email Louise at Louise@louisesedgwick.com.
Medusa, Lamia, Scylla — three of the most feared women in Greek mythology. Each one started as something else entirely, and each one became a warning. In this episode of The Moon in Carolina podcast, host Shelby Bundy traces what happened to them before the transformation: what they were, what they lost, and what it tells us that so many of antiquity's monsters were once just women who had done something inconvenient to a god.
Here are the stories we covered in this weeks show: Macky: How paranoia led to the death of a 93-year-old in Desborough - BBC News Smee: 98% of UK mental health patients report improvement from medical cannabis - leafie Three jailed after former nightclub converted into cannabis farm - BBC News Dr.Margaret: Japan Health Ministry Announces Ban On Cannabinol John: New Changes To ATF Gun Form Put Medical Marijuana Patients On The Path To Restored Second Amendment Rights (Op-Ed) We start off by covering a story showing that over 90% of people using cannabis for mental health issues say it has worked great for them. We then move on to a story claiming that cannabis-induced rage caused a man to beat his 92-year-old friend to death... even though the man had a long history of violent convictions. Guess which of those stories was covered by the mainstream media?! Margaret tells us about the banning of CBN in Japan, and we discuss how that could affect THC, considering CBN is essentially a degraded form of THC. John brings a story about changes to gun ownership forms in the USA, arguing that with cannabis being rescheduled, restrictions on medical cannabis patients may no longer be appropriate. Finally, Smee tells us about three men in the UK who have been jailed for growing cannabis. I hope you enjoy the episode! If you have any stories you would like us to cover on next weeks show, feel free to get in touch on any of your favourite networks! Thanks as always for listening, I hope you enjoy the show
Romanian authorities say a Russian drone has crashed into a residential building in eastern Romania, causing a fire and injuring two people in the major port city of Galati. The episode has sparked a chorus of condemnation from NATO and EU leaders, who have accused Russia of acting recklessly. The Romanian president, Nicușor Dan, has described this as the most serious security incident to occur on Romanian territory since the start of Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine.

An English butcher murdered his wife the day his exorcism ended, the Son of Sam blamed his neighbor's dog, and a forked-tongued occultist who called himself Pazuzu buried bodies in his backyard — and every one of them swore it was the demon who did it. | #WDRadio May 10, 2026==========HOUR ONE: “The devil made me do it.” It's an excuse that has been used so often by so many that it has lost its meaning, and its effectiveness. So only a fool or a madman would commit a horrible act and then try to blame it on the devil or a demon… unless, of course, that person truly believes that is exactly what happened to them. (A Demon Made Me Do It) *** The little Norwegian village of Bærum Verk still stands as an old foundry settlement, and is an active place, both as a place to work, and as a place to live – and as a place to keep living even after you're dead. (The Most Haunted Village in Norway) *** There are more than a few stories from upright citizens around the world who claim to have seen tiny humans. I'm not talking about the diminutive human beings we used to classify as dwarves or midgets until we became more enlightened. I'm talking about short, maybe two-foot tall, perfectly proportioned people. (Big Stories About Little People)==========HOUR TWO: Like many desolate places, the Arctic has its share of ghost stories and haunted legends floating around the frigid, wild areas of its domain. It might be the frights rather than the cold that gives you goosebumps. (Ghostly Shivers of the Arctic Circle) *** You never know what might be lurking just out of sight – in the shadows, behind a door. I'll share a few true stories that might make you double-check the locks at night and check the closet before going to bed. (Never Trust The Dark) *** When you think of the Salem Witch Trials, you typically think of women being burned at the stake, innocently accused of witchcraft. There are two incorrect assumption about that mental picture. First, most of the accused were hung, and none have been truly verified to be burned alive. And second, sorcery and Satan worship were not seen to be bound by gender, and so either a man, woman, boy, or girl could be a witch. And one of those unfortunate men was Giles Corey – but his punishment went beyond the norm, and into the gruesome. (The Most Dreadful Execution of The Salem Witch Trials)==========SUDDEN DEATH OVERTIME: When John and Eva were married they told their relatives that they planned to honeymoon on the Atlantic coast, but John had another plan, and it would not be his last deception. But it would be the first act in what ended up being a mystery that has still gone unsolved to this day. (The Lawrenceburg Shanty-Boat Mystery) *** Weirdo family member James Pierce brings a true story that he calls, “It Came Through the Screen Door”. *** A 5-year-old boy having the time of his life at a carnival suddenly goes missing – and when found later there is no evidence whatsoever as to how he got where he was, who took him there, or what happened to him before he was found. (The Disturbing Case of Little Stephen McKerron) *** Weirdo family member Joy Cruz remembers something her mother told her as a child… and it quite possibly saved her soul.

Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy just went off on the Biden administration and Pete Buttigieg for the shocking collapse of Spirit Airlines. Spirit Airlines officially shut down operations after 34 years, leaving passengers stranded and 17,000 workers without jobs. Duffy made it crystal clear on national TV: “Spirit tried to merge with JetBlue. The Joe Biden-Pete Buttigieg administration and DOJ tanked that deal. Immediately after that, they filed for bankruptcy.” This wasn't just bad luck — it was the predictable result of Biden-era policies that prioritized ideology over American jobs and affordable travel. While the Trump administration tried to step in with support, the damage from the previous four years was already done. We also cover: Senator John Fetterman's approval rating is NOT good. Why are conservatives attacking the LDS Church? NASA Administrator Jared Isaacman on moon base. When will the SAVE America Act be passed? Gavin Newsom is suing Fox News. Republicans and conservatives have been warning about this for years — big government interference always hurts working Americans the most. Drop a
