    A search warrant tied to an unrelated matter brought deputies to a house on Ohmer Street in Hamden, Ohio. They came out with sixteen children, ages eighteen months to eighteen years, and arrested four adults: the grandfather, the grandmother, the father and the mother. Each was charged with sixteen counts of endangering children, and all four have pleaded not guilty.The next day, Ohio's attorney general put a timeline on it in public. Based on what he had seen, he said, waiting a specific amount of time longer carried a very high probability of a death or multiple deaths of those children.Retired FBI special agent Robin Dreeke joins Tony to work through what kind of thinking produces a house like that. Dreeke ran the Bureau's Counterintelligence Behavioral Analysis Program, and his entire career has been about understanding motivation rather than reciting it.The sheriff said the children were kept for most of four years in a room about twelve feet by twelve feet, and that most of the livestock in his county was kept in better conditions. The attorney general called the conditions almost indescribable.The defense frame is completely different. Elizabeth Siders' attorney says this is poverty and isolation rather than evil, and that evil requires malice. He also says his client is the mother of all sixteen children. She was fifteen in 2008 when a judge signed off on her marriage to an eighteen-year-old.Court records show more than one teenage marriage in this family across two generations. The school district has no record that any of the sixteen were ever enrolled. Investigators say the family avoided building medical and government records for nearly two decades.END_LINKSJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/ Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

    Ohio's attorney general did not hedge. Sixteen children were taken out of a home on Ohmer Street in Hamden, and Andy Wilson did not soften what came next. Based on what he had seen, he said, waiting a certain amount of time longer carried a very high probability of a death, or multiple deaths, inside that house.That statement is the spine of this conversation. Tony is joined by Robin Dreeke, the retired FBI special agent who ran the Bureau's Counterintelligence Behavioral Analysis Program and has spent a career answering the question of why people do what they do.The facts are not in much dispute. Sixteen children, from eighteen months to eighteen years. A room the sheriff described as roughly twelve by twelve, where he said they had been kept for most of four years. A sheriff's line about livestock in his county being kept better. An attorney general calling it pure evil.Four adults charged with sixteen counts each of endangering children. Four not guilty pleas.What is in dispute is what it means. Elizabeth Siders' attorney argues this is poverty and isolation rather than evil, and that evil requires malice. Poverty, though, does not teach a family to move across counties and leave no school records and no medical records behind for the better part of two decades.Hamden is a town of about seven hundred people. Relatives say they visited and noticed nothing. The school district has no record that any of the sixteen children were ever enrolled.Dreeke and Tony take all of it apart, including the hardest question in the case: whether a person can be shaped into something and still answer for it.END_LINKSJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/ Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

    On the same day in July, three FBI sources gave the public three irreconcilable answers about the ransom notes in the Nancy Guthrie kidnapping. Reuters was told every note is fake. The Phoenix field office indicated that some may be legitimate. TMZ's sources said the original two are more credible than not.That is three positions from inside one agency about the most consequential evidence in an active kidnapping investigation that has produced zero arrests in nearly six months.Nancy Guthrie disappeared from her Tucson home in January. A masked figure was captured on her Ring camera. Former FBI agent Steve Moore publicly declared the case is cold, telling Brian Entin that fresh investigators will eventually cycle in because the current team has gone as far as it can with its approach.The cons have made it worse. Derrick Callella pleaded guilty to posing as a kidnapper and reaching out directly to the family with fake ransom messages. Someone else sent TMZ twelve emails demanding Bitcoin. The investigation has had to devote significant resources just to separating real evidence from manufactured noise.The enhanced photo of the masked figure captured on Nancy's porch camera has never been released to the public. Nancy's face is on the billboards. The suspect's is not. These are choices, and no one has explained the reasoning behind them.If the FBI has results from those five months of genetic genealogy testing, the public has not been told. If they do not have results after five months on a DNA sample in a kidnapping case, the investigation is producing questions faster than it is producing answers.Retired FBI Special Agent Jennifer Coffindaffer has publicly challenged investigators on ten specific points, including the unreleased porch image and the question of whether the Bureau already knows who porch guy is. DNA recovered from Nancy's home went to a genetic genealogy lab in February.

    Josh Duggar Claims His Own Sisters Did WHAT?!

    The family that reported Joseph Duggar to police has lost almost everything, and understanding why starts with how this family actually operates. Joseph, thirty-one, is facing two felony counts in Florida connected to what happened to a child during a 2020 family vacation. He's pleaded not guilty, but the arrest affidavit says he admitted what happened twice, once to the child's father and once to detectives on a monitored call. His parents posted his bond. The people who went to police instead of keeping it quiet were his own in-laws, the Caldwells, a Baptist pastor's family who broke a two-decade pattern of handling everything inside the house. What that decision has cost them is coming in this episode.  While that plays out in Florida, Josh Duggar is generating his own headlines from inside federal prison. He's been transferred through four facilities in three states, and the Bureau of Prisons hasn't explained why. His attorney calls the moves retaliation for complaints about opened legal mail. Whatever the reason, his release date keeps sliding in one direction only: originally August 2032, revised three times since, now sitting at February 2, 2033. Jurors at his trial already heard how far he was willing to go to dodge accountability, including a hidden operating system built specifically to defeat the monitoring software his wife was using on him.  Now there's a 2025 motion, filed from behind bars, and his own sisters are named in it. What Josh Duggar is claiming about them, and what he wants a court to do about it, is the thread tying this whole episode together. Two Duggar sons, two courtrooms, and the same family instinct showing up in both: protect the name first, and worry about who gets hurt along the way second. Links Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/ Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

    There's a motion sitting in a federal court file right now, filed by Josh Duggar in 2025, and his own sisters are named in it. What he's asking the court to do with them is the reason we're covering this case again. It comes from a man who's currently being moved through four different federal facilities in three states, with the Bureau of Prisons refusing to say why. His attorney frames the transfers as retaliation, punishment for complaining that guards opened his legal mail. That's the version his team is selling. But his release date tells a quieter, uglier story. It started at August 2032. It's been pushed back three times since, and it now lands on February 2, 2033. A date that only ever moves in one direction isn't the record of a man doing his time and staying out of the way. At trial, the jury heard exactly how far he was willing to go to avoid accountability: software his wife was supposed to use to monitor him, and a hidden system he built to make that software useless. Two years of being told no, and he built his own way around it.  The rest of the Duggar family isn't having a quiet stretch either. In Florida, Joseph Duggar, thirty-one, is facing two felony counts tied to what happened to a child during a 2020 family vacation. He's pleaded not guilty, but according to the affidavit, he admitted what happened twice: once to the child's father, and once to detectives on a monitored call. His parents bailed him out. The people who went to police were his own in-laws, the Caldwells, who broke with a family pattern of keeping everything inside the house. What it cost them is where this one is headed. Links Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/ Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

    Pueblo leaders and environmentalists are angry that the U.S. Bureau of Land Management (BLM) released an environmental assessment last week with the intent of eliminating a buffer around Chaco Culture National Historical Park that has prevented oil and gas leasing. As KUNM's Jeanette DeDios (Jicarilla Apache and Diné) reports, BLM is offering just two weeks for public comment on the report. A Biden administration order placed a 20-year ban on oil and gas development on federal lands within 10 miles of Chaco, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. This upset some Navajo communities who rely on royalty payments and infrastructure from oil and gas for their livelihoods. President Buu Nygren said thousands of Navajo oil and gas allottees would be negatively impacted by the decision. But in April, the BLM gave the public one week to comment on a proposal to expand oil and gas leasing around Chaco. The current proposed environmental assessment has three options: leave the buffer intact, reduce it to five miles, or remove all protections. Brian Vallo (Acoma Pueblo), chairman for the Chaco Heritage Tribal Association, says the Trump administration is not working with Pueblo communities, despite tribes working together to create an ethnographic study on why this landscape is vital to Native cultures. The study is a first of its kind, he says, and was conducted by the Pueblos themselves. “So it really traces the ethnography of this cultural and sacred landscape from our present-day communities to the great houses in Chaco, but also everything in between, pilgrimage trails, shrines, sacred sites, springs, and other places that are significant to our continued observance and practice of our own traditions and you know, Indigenous way of life.” Vallo says the association is frustrated that the federal government is not adhering to a data-sharing agreement and not considering information from this ethnographic study, but moving forward with a draft environmental assessment. “All of humanity, the land, and the resources, the animals, the water. All of those things have connection, and that connection is maintained through the generations of those of us who are the practitioners, those of us who are the cultural leaders, and the greater Pueblo community as well.” Members of New Mexico's congressional delegation have also condemned the BLM announcement as a move to push for more oil and gas drilling. The All Pueblo Council of Governors has continued to invite Secretary of Interior Doug Burgum to visit Chaco Canyon and hold a consultation with Pueblo members, but he has not responded. Vallo says young folks at Acoma are already mobilizing. “Young people from within our community who are going door to door with laptops and or notebooks to encourage tribal members to submit letters.” Public comment closes on July 29. The view of Namaygoosisagagun First Nation as resident evacuated across Collins Lake. (Courtesy Wayne Wastaken) Across Canada this weekend, nearly 900 wildfires were burning – from the Atlantic provinces to British Columbia. Northern Ontario is one of the regions that has been hardest hit. One Indigenous community there has been destroyed. And as Dan Karpenchuk reports, Indigenous leaders are calling on the federal government in Ottawa for more support. At least one small first nation in northern Ontario has burned to the ground by a devastating wildfire, which is one of nearly 200 alone burning in the province. Residents fled the Namaygoosisagagun First Nation by boat on Collins Lake, many having only a few minutes to gather some personal belongings, according to Chief Helen Paavola. “It was just a matter of minutes before my members would have died. And even during that whole time, there was no help.” Namaygoosisagagun, also known as Collins First Nation, is only one of ten communities, Indigenous and non-Indigenous, that have been evacuated as wildfires rip through the region. Namaygoosisagagun is now is ashes – and its residents say they face an uncertain future. The Assembly of First Nations is calling on Ottawa for help including financial support. Linda Debassige is the grand chief of the Anishnabek Nation. She says when the wildfire first approached the community, the chief herself tried to contact government officials, but they said they were not aware of the fire. “And so, had the community waited for the official emergency response activiation, this would be a recovery mission at this point in time, which is unfathomable.” Debassige says the community now needs accommodations, food, and especially a commitment to support rebuilding. One of the problems is that the Namaygoosisagagun is not federally recognized as an official Indigenous first nation. The remote first nation, more than 700 miles north of Toronto, has no road access. Debassige says the Anishnabek Nation Grand Council, which includes 39 first nations, does recognize it and is supporting members by providing accommodation, food, and clothing.

    Nancy Guthrie's family got fake ransom demands while search teams looked for her, and the man behind them just walked out of federal court with probation. Tony Brueski unpacks the plea deal, the sentence, and why it's landing as a slap in the face to everyone who's followed this case. Harassment. That's what the four-million-dollar ransom note and the follow-up apology letter got reduced to. Five years of probation, every count running concurrently. Retired FBI special agent Jennifer Coffindaffer put it plainly on the record: this outcome is a travesty, and it could invite more of the copycat extortion attempts investigators have started calling the TMZ Twelve. The apology letter is its own strange piece of this. Sent only to local television stations, it called Nancy's death an accident, a claim nobody investigating this case has confirmed. Both that letter and the original ransom note were reportedly traced to the same IP address, one of the only real leads on the table. Porch Guy, another person connected to the case, still hasn't been identified or taken in. And the contradictions don't stop with the hoaxer. Pima County Sheriff Chris Nanos has spent this case fielding pointed questions about his own record, including one moment where he told a reporter to enjoy his hit piece instead of answering. The FBI and the Sheriff's Department keep pointing at each other over who's actually running point, and a retired agent says there's real disagreement inside the Bureau over whether some of the evidence holds up. Even the physical evidence has a strange trail. One key item reportedly flew to Florida and back before anyone bothered running it against a database, which is not exactly standard operating procedure. Nancy Guthrie is still missing.

    A woman is still missing, and the man who tortured her family with a fake ransom scheme just got a sentence that fits in a headline: probation. Tony Brueski lays out what happened to the person behind the bogus bitcoin ransom notes sent to the Guthrie family, and why a retired FBI agent is calling the outcome a disgrace. The charge was knocked down to harassment. The sentence was five years of probation, all counts running concurrently instead of stacked on top of each other. Retired special agent Jennifer Coffindaffer says the light punishment risks emboldening the wave of copycats already flooding investigators, a group now referred to inside the Bureau as the TMZ Twelve. There's more sitting underneath that plea deal than one bad sentence. An original ransom note demanded four million dollars with an escalating threat attached. A second letter, stranger still, went only to local television stations, apologizing and calling Nancy's death an accident. Both were reportedly linked to the same IP address, one of the only solid threads investigators have. And Porch Guy, a person tied to the case, remains unidentified. Meanwhile, the search itself keeps producing contradictions. Pima County Sheriff Chris Nanos has been dodging questions about his own record, at one point telling a reporter to enjoy his hit piece. The FBI and the Sheriff's Department can't settle who's actually leading the investigation, and a retired agent says there's genuine disagreement inside the Bureau about whether certain pieces of evidence are even legitimate. Kash Patel added his own layer of confusion, telling a podcast audience his agents were locked out for days, while one of his own special agents was already standing beside Sheriff Nanos at a press conference, a fueled plane waiting in the background. Nancy Guthrie is still out there.

    What Does Market Volatility Mean for Your Retirement Portfolio?

    The Tom Dupree Show

      What Does This Week’s Market Volatility Mean for Your Retirement Portfolio? By Tom Dupree, Founder, Dupree Financial Group Inflation cooled. The big banks beat expectations. And somehow, it was still a wild week in the market. If you’ve been watching your account balance bounce around and wondering whether any of it has anything to do with the actual value of what you own, here’s the short answer: usually not. Most of what moved the market this week wasn’t new information about businesses — it was leverage, technical trading, and forced selling. That distinction matters more for your retirement than almost anything else you’ll read this month, because it tells you when to act and when to simply hold on. This week’s episode of The Tom Dupree Show walked through four separate stories — cooling inflation, strong bank earnings, a leveraged-ETF blowup on the other side of the world, and a regulatory fight over how often companies should report earnings — that all point to the same lesson: know what you own, know why the price is moving, and don’t confuse someone else’s forced selling with your own emergency. Key Takeaways Inflation cooled to 3.5% year-over-year in June, but the Fed’s new chair has questioned whether the 2% target is even the right one — the ground rules for bonds and rate-sensitive investments could shift. Bank profits this quarter came mostly from paying less on deposits, not from a borrowing boom — a reminder that cash flow, not headlines, tells the real story. A leveraged single-stock ETF collapse in South Korea forced hundreds of thousands of retail accounts into liquidation — a case study in what daily-compounding leverage does to a portfolio. Semiconductor stocks have swung hard on technical signals, not fundamentals — which can create real opportunity for patient, long-term owners. A federal proposal to let companies report earnings twice a year instead of four times has reignited a real debate about transparency versus short-termism. Why Does the Market Feel So Unpredictable Right Now? If you’re 55, 65, or 75 and watching a retirement account that’s supposed to fund the next 30 or 40 years of your life, a week like this one is unsettling. The headlines contradict each other: inflation is cooling, but chip stocks are getting hammered one day and ripping higher the next. Banks are thriving, but somewhere on the other side of the world, hundreds of thousands of retail investors just lost their entire trading accounts overnight. It’s a lot to hold at once, and it’s reasonable to wonder whether any of it should change what you do with your own money. Here’s the honest answer: for most retirees holding a diversified, income-producing portfolio, almost none of it should. But understanding why requires pulling apart what actually happened this week — and separating the noise from the signal. What Actually Happened This Week — The Data Start with the good news. The Bureau of Labor Statistics reported that headline inflation cooled to 3.5% year-over-year in June, with core inflation (which strips out food and energy) coming in at 2.6% — both below what economists expected, and producer prices actually declined for the month. That’s a meaningfully better inflation picture than markets were braced for. But the Fed’s target isn’t necessarily fixed anymore. Kevin Warsh, who was sworn in as Federal Reserve chairman this spring, has openly questioned the assumptions behind the central bank’s longstanding 2% inflation goal and launched a broader review of how the Fed operates. For retirees who own bonds or rate-sensitive income investments, that’s not a footnote — it’s a reason to pay attention to what “the target” even means over the next few years, rather than assuming the old rules still apply. Meanwhile, bank earnings came in strong — but not for the reason most people assume. The lift came primarily from banks paying less to fund themselves (short-term deposit rates have fallen faster than the loans on their books have repriced), not from a fresh wave of borrowing. It’s a good environment for financial stocks, but it’s a funding-cost story more than a booming-economy story, and that distinction matters if you’re trying to judge whether the rally has legs. Then there’s the semiconductor sector, which has been the market’s most volatile corner. Taiwan Semiconductor, the company that manufactures the vast majority of the world’s advanced AI chips, reported June revenue up nearly 68% year-over-year, a genuinely extraordinary number driven by AI infrastructure demand. And yet chip stocks broadly have been whipping up and down for reasons that have very little to do with numbers like that one. A lot of that action is technical: when a stock breaks below a widely watched moving average, institutional trading algorithms are programmed to sell, regardless of what the underlying business is doing. That selling then triggers more selling. It looks like panic. It’s often just mechanics. The starkest illustration of what leverage does in a downturn came out of South Korea this month, where a wave of new single-stock leveraged ETFs tied to semiconductor giants Samsung and SK Hynix triggered margin calls on more than 1.2 million retail trading accounts, with roughly 320,000 to 360,000 of those accounts fully liquidated in a matter of days. These products were designed to move twice the daily price swing of a single stock — which sounds appealing on the way up and is devastating on the way down, because the losses compound daily rather than tracking the stock’s actual return over time. It’s an ocean away from Lexington, Kentucky, but the lesson travels: leverage doesn’t just add risk, it changes the math entirely. Finally, there’s a quieter but genuinely important story developing in Washington. The SEC has proposed letting public companies choose to report earnings twice a year instead of four times, a change championed by President Trump and SEC Chairman Paul Atkins as a way to reduce short-term pressure on management teams. The idea splits reasonable people: less frequent reporting could free executives to run their businesses for the next several years instead of the next ninety days, but it could also mean investors — including retirees who depend on knowing exactly what they own — get less information, less often. This week’s news cycle also included a primetime presidential address in which Trump alleged that newly declassified intelligence showed foreign interference — including from China — in the 2020 election, along with claims of voter registration fraud in Michigan. Election security officials, including the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency, have said they’ve found no evidence that any votes were altered in past elections. Whatever your read on the speech, it fed into a broader theme running through the whole hour: how much can you trust the numbers an institution hands you, whether that’s a vote count or a government inflation report? It’s why we do our own research instead of relying solely on government statistics or Wall Street’s sell-side analysts, and it’s the same instinct that should guide how you evaluate any claim, official or otherwise. The Reframe: Manufactured Volatility vs. Real Risk Here’s the framework we come back to on nearly every episode of the show, and it’s the one thing we want you to take from this week’s news: there is a real difference between manufactured volatility and real risk, and confusing the two is one of the most expensive mistakes a retiree can make. Manufactured volatility is what happens when a stock’s price swings because of leverage unwinding, algorithmic trading around technical levels, or funds racing to exit ahead of a quarterly number — not because the underlying business got worse. The Korean ETF collapse is manufactured volatility in its purest form: a Samsung or SK Hynix shareholder holding actual shares, with no leverage, watched the same news and the same earnings power, just without the forced-selling spiral. Real risk is different. Real risk is a company losing its competitive position, cutting its dividend, or piling on debt it can’t service. Real risk should change what you own. Manufactured volatility, more often than not, should not. The trouble is that from the outside, both look identical on a stock chart. A share price falling 10% doesn’t come labeled “manufactured” or “real.” Telling the difference requires actually knowing the business you own — its cash flow, its dividend history, its balance sheet — well enough to judge whether this week’s headline changed anything about that story. That’s the diligence part of the job, and there’s no shortcut around it. How Should Retirement Investors Respond to This Kind of Volatility? At Dupree Financial Group, this is exactly why our approach centers on dividend-paying stocks and bonds rather than chasing whatever sector is moving fastest. When you own a company for the income it generates — not for a price target — a week of manufactured volatility becomes far less threatening, and sometimes it becomes an opportunity. When institutions are forced to sell a good company for reasons that have nothing to do with its fundamentals, the price drop that scares one investor is simply a better entry point for another. That’s not a guarantee of a favorable outcome — all investing involves risk, including the possible loss of principal — but it’s a fundamentally different posture than reacting to every headline. Seven Steps to Retirement-Proof Your Portfolio Against Manufactured Volatility Know what you own, line by line. Pull up your statement and be able to explain, in one sentence each, why you own every major holding. If you can’t, that’s the first thing to fix — not the market. Separate the headline from the business. Before reacting to a price move, ask whether anything actually changed about the company’s earnings, dividend, or balance sheet — or whether it’s a technical or leverage-driven move like the ones described above. Keep leveraged and single-stock ETFs out of retirement money entirely. These products are built for daily traders, not long-term holders. The Korean ETF collapse is a real-world example of what daily compounding leverage can do to an account in a matter of days. Read past the quarterly headline number. Whether or not the reporting-frequency rules change, judge a company on multi-year cash flow and dividend trends, not a single quarter’s beat or miss. Keep a watchlist of quality companies for when panic creates a discount. When forced selling knocks a good business down for reasons unrelated to its fundamentals, that’s the moment long-term investors get paid for their patience. Revisit your income plan, not just your account balance. A retirement portfolio’s job is to produce cash flow you can live on for 30 to 40 years. Judge a volatile week by whether your income stream held up — not by the number on the login screen. Get a second set of eyes on your portfolio. If you’re not sure whether what you own is built to withstand this kind of volatility, or whether you’re carrying more leverage or concentration risk than you realize, that’s exactly what a portfolio review is for. Frequently Asked Questions Is a leveraged ETF a good way to boost my retirement returns? No. Leveraged ETFs reset and compound daily, so their long-term return can diverge sharply from the underlying stock’s actual performance — including large losses even when the stock has technically risen over time. They’re built for short-term traders, not retirement accounts. Does cooling inflation mean the Fed will cut interest rates soon? Not necessarily. While June’s cooler CPI reading supports the case for rate cuts, the Fed’s new chairman has signaled openness to rethinking the central bank’s approach to its inflation target, adding real uncertainty to the timeline for any rate decisions. Why do stock prices swing so much when a company’s earnings didn’t change? Much of the day-to-day movement in popular stocks comes from technical trading, algorithmic strategies tied to chart levels, and leveraged funds being forced to buy or sell — not from new information about the business itself. That’s manufactured volatility, not real risk. What does the debate over quarterly earnings reports mean for individual investors? If the SEC’s proposal is adopted, some companies may report financial results only twice a year instead of four times. That could reduce short-term pressure on management, but it may also mean investors get less frequent, less detailed information about what they actually own. How do I know if my retirement portfolio is built to handle volatility? Start by confirming you can explain why you own every major holding and that none of your retirement money sits in leveraged or single-stock products. A complimentary portfolio review with a fee-only fiduciary advisor is the fastest way to get an honest, unbiased answer. The Bottom Line Weeks like this one will keep happening. Leverage will keep building up somewhere and unwinding somewhere else. Traders will keep reacting to chart levels instead of cash flow. What won’t change is the difference between a business that’s actually worth less than it was last week and a stock price that simply got caught in someone else’s forced selling. Learn to tell those two things apart, build your income around companies you understand, and a volatile week stops being a threat to your retirement — it starts being background noise, or even opportunity. Schedule a Complimentary Portfolio Review If you’re not sure whether your portfolio is built to take advantage of volatility like we saw this week — instead of getting knocked around by it — we’ll take a look. No charge. No pressure. Just an honest conversation about what you own and whether it’s working for you.

    We All Hallucinate Reality: Turi Munthe on Why We Think What We Think

    Keen On Democracy

    “If you can only explain the arguments of the other side because they're mad or dangerous or dumb, the problem is with you.” — Turi Munthe On yesterday's show, the psychiatrist Sally Satel described how Americans imagine their own mental condition differently, depending on their politics and age. Which is a nice segue for today's conversation with the Anglo-French journalist turned media entrepreneur Turi Munthe. It's not just in our mental health self-evaluation, Munthe argues, that we hallucinate reality. Indeed, the French born Munthe often sounds like one of his post-structuralist compatriots in his defiantly slippery notion of ontological reality. In Why We Think What We Think: The Unexpected Origins of Our Deepest Beliefs, Munthe argues that our deepest convictions turn out to be shaped by genetics, brain shape and sometimes even by the agricultural legacy of our distant ancestors. Left and right thinkers, Munthe argues, are different political phenotypes — each hallucinating their own version of reality. Total relativism, then — the full French post-structuralist monty? Not quite. Here's where Munthe's Englishness kicks in. Following the Anglo-Russian philosopher Isaiah Berlin, Munthe insists pluralism and relativism are different. So Turi Munthe doesn't just think what he thinks because of his English or French origins. Borrowing from the cognitive scientists Dan Sperber and Hugo Mercier, Munthe defines thinking as a “contact sport”. So, for example, believing that the 2020 election was stolen is what Munthe calls a social commitment, because humans would rather be wrong together than right alone. Speaking of convenient segues, Munthe's thoughts on thinking set the scene for next Tuesday's conversation with Emily Eakin, author of The Frenchmen. It's her history of seductive post-structuralists like Foucault, Derrida and Lacan who corrupted a whole generation of literary American Ivy Leaguers (including Eakin) into hallucinating reality. Five Takeaways •       Pluralism Is Not Relativism. Munthe opens with Isaiah Berlin's distinction: registering the sincerity and value of opinions across the political, religious, and ethical spectrum does not relativize truth. That Charles Windsor is King of the United Kingdom is a statement of fact; whether you're a monarchist or a republican is where opinion begins. The book confines itself to the second category — beliefs, values, and opinions that cannot be factually proven — and asks what the nonrational influences on them actually are. The answer is humbling: genetics account for perhaps half of political persuasion, and the rest is shaped by everything from brain anatomy to the agriculture of our ancestors. •       Different Political Phenotypes. At the margins, left and right differ neurologically: right-leaners are on average more readily startled by loud noises and more attentive to threat, while left-leaners carry a slightly larger anterior cingulate cortex — the brain region where we process ambiguity and split hairs. That anatomy, Munthe argues, explains the ideological capture of academia and media better than any conspiracy: hair-splitters go where the hair-splitting is, and a conservative 22-year-old doesn't volunteer for a newsroom where 80% of colleagues think differently. We are, in his phrase, different political phenotypes, each hallucinating a different version of reality. •       Thinking as a Contact Sport. Drawing on Dan Sperber and Hugo Mercier's research, Munthe argues that reason didn't evolve for solitary contemplation — Rodin's Thinker is the wrong image — but for argument: to convince you to hunt the buffalo with me, I need reasons that look objective to you too. The evidence is everywhere, from the most impactful academic papers being written by pairs and groups to the creative density of small university towns. The implication is political: the people we disagree with are not obstacles to good thinking but the condition of it — the loyal opposition that helps us get out of ourselves. •       Wrong Together Rather Than Right Alone. Munthe's reading of January 6 and the stolen-election faith is social rather than psychiatric: an enormous number of our beliefs matter more for what they do than for what they say, and professing them is a commitment to a group. From an evolutionary perspective, believing what your village believes — even about the god who is a giant rock at the end of the field — is intelligent, because the ostracized lose the protection of the group. The terrifying data point is the marriage test: in the 1950s, around 4% of families would have objected to a child marrying across party lines; today it approaches 45%. That is affective polarization, and it can pull societies apart. •       The Problem Is With You. Munthe spent his twenties unable to fathom American gun rights — supporters had to be bought, dumb, or morally corrupt — until he did the work and found a tradition he now calls beautiful and heroic, whether or not he shares it. His rule of thumb: if you can only explain the other side's arguments as madness, danger, or stupidity, the problem is with you. This is not centrism — there was no middle ground on slavery or the Holocaust — but a defense of the clash itself: societies need the left to fix inequality and the right to defend the village, and we think best when the two are, in his words, continually bashed against each other. About the Guest Turi Munthe is a journalist and policy analyst turned media entrepreneur. He founded Demotix, which became the largest network of photojournalists in the world before its sale to Corbis in 2012, and Parlia, an encyclopedia of opinion. He has written for The Economist, The Guardian, the TLS, The Nation, and The Spectator, has sat on the boards of Index on Censorship, openDemocracy, and the Bureau of Investigative Journalism, and is a board member of the Italian media group GEDI, publisher of La Repubblica and La Stampa. He studied Arabic and History at Oxford.

    Send us Fan MailHe walked away from the pulpit because the stress would not let his body rest, then spent the next two decades staring straight at humanity's darkest corners. I'm joined by Eric Robinson, newly retired after 24 years in the FBI, to talk about resilience that's earned, not posted. Eric shares how carrying other people's pain as a solo pastor led to daily headaches, and why choosing a new path was a mental health decision as much as a career move.From there, we trace his unusual transition into federal law enforcement, including how the post 9-11 environment and his background shaped the Bureau's interest. We also get real about maturity and judgment in high-stakes work: what experience gives you, why authenticity matters with first responders, and how a “mask” culture can quietly grind people down.Then we go deeper into the cases that leave a mark: sex trafficking, exploitation, gangs, and the challenge of staying compassionate without being naive. Eric explains why justice can't depend on a “perfect victim,” and he tells a moment from Chicago that re-centered him fast when a kid he judged as a nuisance asked for help getting home. We close with a look at how he approaches interviews and interrogations by building connection and psychological safety to get the truth, not to perform anger.If you care about first responder mental health, trauma-informed leadership, and real-world resilience skills, hit play, then subscribe, share this with a teammate, and leave a review so more people can find the show.Please reach Eric through his website at http://www.preachertobreacher.comDeemedFit: First Responder OwnedWe are a first responder owned company looking to get first responders in the best mental shape.Disclaimer: This post contains affiliate links.

    Most speakers think joining a bureau is the finish line. Dominic Eldred-Earl, who books speakers for London Speaker Bureau and speaks himself, explains why it's closer to the starting line.He breaks down the real difference between a speaker agent and a speaker bureau, why simply being added to a bureau's database doesn't mean the whole team knows you exist, and the specific mechanic behind why newer names sit invisible at the bottom of internal search results. He also shares the one legitimate shortcut speakers use to jump that queue, what fee range actually makes a booking worth a bureau's time, and why bureaus paradoxically want you least when you need them most.Beyond the bureau mechanics, this one covers what visibility actually looks like to a booker, why information-heavy speaking is losing ground to connection and storytelling, and where the paying opportunities outside the corporate stage actually are.Want the PDF of this episode's highlights?

A speaker bureau is client-focused rather than speaker-focused: it takes in a brief from a booking client and searches a large roster of speakers across many categories to find a fit.Q: Why do speakers join bureaus and still not get booked?A: Bureaus search internal databases by keyword and filter, and results typically surface speakers who've been booked most recently first. A speaker with no prior bookings through that bureau sits at the bottom of the list, effectively invisible, regardless of how long they've been listed.Q: What's the shortcut to appear higher in a bureau's search results?A: Passing an existing inbound enquiry through the bureau to close, even at reduced or no fee, creates a recorded booking. That booking moves the speaker up the "recently booked" ranking for future searches on similar criteria.Q: What speaker fee makes a booking worthwhile for a bureau?A: Roughly £2,000 upwards from the client is workable, though the bureau's percentage is higher at the lower end to cover minimum costs. Higher fee brackets, around £8,000 and up, give more room for both speaker and bureau.Q: Should a speaker approach a bureau before they have clear positioning?A: No. Bureau consultants need to describe a speaker's value quickly to clients, so unclear or unniched messaging makes a speaker very difficult to put forward, regardless of talent.Q: What makes a speaker "visible" to a bureau?A: Primarily consistent, valuable LinkedIn activity with genuine interaction and comments from event attendees (not just other speakers), plus positive word of mouth from past clients when a bureau consultant checks references.Are your speaker fees high enough?

    DSA Proposes Structure That Gave Us the Third Reich, the Soviet Union, and Communist China

    You’re listening to American Ground Radio with Stephen Parr and Louis R. Avallone. This is the full show for July 14, 2026. We open with the Democratic Socialists of America's national co-chair going on record calling for the abolition of the United States Senate — and we explain why this isn't a fringe idea anymore. The DSA wants to replace the Senate, the presidency, and the Supreme Court with a single legislative body allocated purely by population, rename it the People's Bureau, and hand it public ownership of the nation's largest corporations. We walk through what that actually means — that seven or eight major cities could effectively govern the entire country, that the constitutional protections for smaller states would vanish, and that the structure they're proposing is the same one that produced the Third Reich, the Soviet Union, and Communist China. We also note that 51% of the DSA's National Policy Committee openly identifies with communism, Marxism, or Marxist-Leninism — not according to conservative critics, but according to a report cited by the former Democratic chief counsel for the House Judiciary Committee. The Democratic Party needs to decide whether it is going to continue letting these people run under its banner. In our Top 3 Things You Need to Know, President Trump formally notified Congress that hostilities with Iran have resumed — opening a new 60-day window under the War Powers Act after Iran repeatedly violated the ceasefire and continued attacking civilian shipping in the Strait of Hormuz. Then inflation dropped from 4.2% to 3.5% last month — the largest single-month decrease in four years — driven largely by falling gas prices during the ceasefire, with core inflation down to 2.6%. And Justices Elena Kagan and Amy Coney Barrett testified jointly before Congress requesting increased security funding — with Barrett revealing that six weeks ago her teenage son opened the front door to find their street filled with police cars responding to a swatting attack on their home. We also weigh in on President Trump's signature appearing on the new $100 bill as part of America's 250th anniversary commemoration — and we have a genuine disagreement about it. It's a milestone that comes once in a nation's history and deserves recognition. But putting a sitting president's name on currency in circulation is outside American tradition, starts to look like the kind of thing emperors and monarchs do, and gives his critics an easy target that's hard to defend. Our American Mama Teri Netterville makes the case that moms are still better matchmakers than any dating app ever invented — and backs it up with evidence. Three couples she personally set up are now married, including her own daughter Summer and Louisiana Tech baseball captain Phillip Matulia, whom Teri identified as the right match before her daughter was even willing to consider it. She also shares the story of Andrea Swift — Taylor's mother — who heard that Travis Kelce loves his mother, said ding ding ding, and the rest is history. Terry's conclusion: we know our children. Apps know your data. There's a difference. In our Digging Deep segment, a Fort Worth police officer threatened street preachers Richard Pankoski and David Grisham with disorderly conduct citations at a Pride parade — telling them directly that if someone is offended by their talking, that constitutes a problem warranting a citation. We explain why this is not a close constitutional question. The First Amendment does not exist to protect popular speech. It exists precisely to protect the kind of speech that offends people. The Fort Worth police chief acknowledged the officers were wrong — but we push back on his framing. They weren't wrong in the manner they addressed it. They were wrong to address it at all. Religious speech enjoys the same constitutional protection as secular speech. If marchers get to publicly celebrate what scripture calls sin, preachers get to publicly call it sin. We then turn to Zoran Mamdani's New York City — where Manhattan's average one-bedroom rent has hit an all-time high of nearly $5,500 a month and Brooklyn is setting its own records, with critics calling the housing situation DEFCON 1. We connect it directly to Mamdani's rent freeze threats, which gave every landlord in the city a powerful incentive to raise rents before the freeze could take effect, and to congestion pricing, which is now making it financially attractive to live inside Manhattan rather than commute — driving up rents from the demand side. The left created this crisis with its own policies and is now running on those same policies as the solution. For our Bright Spot, President Trump and Iraqi Prime Minister Ali al-Zaidi announced that U.S. troops will be out of Iraq by September 30th — ending a 23-year military presence that peaked at 170,000 troops and is now down to roughly 2,000. We also cover Iraq signing new oil deals with Chevron and other American companies to build pipelines running from Iraq through Turkey to Europe — bypassing the Strait of Hormuz entirely — which would permanently reduce Iranian leverage over global energy markets. And we close with 28-year-old Rishi Sharma, who at 18 became curious about World War II, interviewed one veteran, then another, then another, until curiosity became an obsession — and he has now spent every single day of the last ten years interviewing veterans of the Greatest Generation, preserving 3,000 firsthand accounts of American history on hard drives and SD cards before those voices are gone forever.

The Urban Institute released new data that found more Americans using credit cards and other means to cover their grocery bills as food prices continue to rise, along with other necessities. The study found that a cumulative 32% increase in food costs over the last five years has forced more than one in four working-age Americans into credit card debt to cover their grocery bills. According to the the Bureau of Labor Statistics, prices for "food at home" - the cost of groceries - increased by 2.7% between May, 2025 and May, 2026.

    President Donald Trump slashed the size of two national monuments in Utah Monday. The sites feature ancient cliff dwellings and scenic canyons, as well as coal and uranium deposits. As Chris Clements of KNAU reports, the move comes over the objections of tribal nations and conservation groups. President Trump issued proclamations that reduce Bears Ears and Grand Staircase-Escalante by about 90% each. At a signing event with Gov. Spencer Cox (R-UT), Trump said the reduction gives the land “back” to the people of Utah. Trump tried shrinking the monuments during his first term, but former President Joe Biden reversed the decision. Tim Peterson with the conservation nonprofit Grand Canyon Trust says the tribal nations that consider the monuments culturally significant were not consulted. “That lack of consultation represents a violation of federal trust and treaty obligations to tribes.” A survey of Utah residents commissioned by the trust in 2024 shows support for keeping both monuments at the size President Biden determined. Connecticut Justice Alliance (CTJA) Executive Director Christina Quaranta speaks in support of a state senate bill raising the age of arrest in CT and restricting the use of handcuffs on young children in March 2025. (Courtesy CTJA / Vimeo) Connecticut juvenile justice advocates want the state to halt plans for a new youth detention center, as Edwin J. Viera reports. The latest Re-entry, Goal-oriented, Individualized Opportunity to Nurture Success (REGIONS) center is slated to fulfill a 2018 law when the state's last large youth prison closed. Christina Quaranta with the Connecticut Justice Alliance says that was eight years ago and the state should invest in alternatives to incarceration instead. “Opening a new facility would be taking many steps backwards. It would be the opposite of progressive and doing what's right for young people. So, I encourage lawmakers to think about that. The barrier there, folks are like, ‘this is in state statute, this is what we have to do,' and we really need to get rid of that barrier.” In considering alternatives to incarceration, Quaranta says the state must ask young people what they need to be engaged and have the programs and services they require, but there is a disconnect between what policymakers know needs to be done and what families and communities are asking for. Given the short legislative session this year, the state was not able to address alternatives to incarceration. At the start of the session, Quaranta wanted to see lawmakers review the state Department of Corrections budget to find ways to further alternatives to incarceration for youth, but she says the state must keep investments moving forward rather than stalling. “As folks are stopping to make policy decisions, or wait for the elections to come and go, whatever the hiccup is, the dollars need to be bound and moved because it's an urgent issue.” State lawmakers made some youth justice progress in the 2025 legislative session by approving the Raise the Age law. The bill raises the age of arrest for children from 10 to 12 years old under certain circumstances this year. The law will raise the age of arrest again in 2028 from 12 to 14, and restrict the use of handcuffs on children under 14. The Prairie Band Potawatomi Nation Tribal Council. (Courtesy Prairie Band Potawatomi Nation) The Prairie Band Potawatomi Nation has filed a federal lawsuit against the Kansas Lottery, alleging the state is violating tribal sovereignty by selling lottery tickets and operating lottery machines on the Nation’s reservation. Tribal leaders say the lawsuit seeks to protect treaty rights and enforce the federal Indian Gaming Regulatory Act. (Courtesy U.S. Bureau of Land Management) In California, tribal leaders continue to oppose a federal roundup of wild horses near Mono Lake. The U.S. Bureau of Land Management says the gather is needed because of drought and overgrazing, while tribal leaders argue the horses are culturally significant and want greater tribal involvement in managing the herd. The Cherokee Nation has awarded nearly $1.9 million in public health and wellness grants to dozens of organizations across its reservation. Tribal officials say the funding will support community health programs, mental health services, and wellness initiatives throughout northeastern Oklahoma.

    What does it mean to have a constitution? That is a question tribal leaders are going to grapple with this week in southern Arizona during a two-day seminar. KJZZ's Gabriel Pietrorazio has more. Up until Congress passed the landmark Indian Reorganization Act, tribes were not seen as sovereign. That all changed in 1934. Dave Beeksma is from the Red Cliff Band of Lake Superior Chippewa in Wisconsin. “But there are going to be some conditions. So, what the U.S. government did, was they provided these boilerplate templates. [In] some cases, these were literally fill-in-the-blank constitutions.” He is also director of the Native Nations Institute at the University of Arizona. “We the people of – state your tribe – are constituting a constitution to do x, y, and z. That created some challenges for us over the next 90 years.” Which is why the institute is helping tribes review these outdated texts. The U.S. Constitution has been amended 27 times. Such reform is something Thomas Jefferson encouraged. “The Cherokee Nation does something like that right now. They have a provision every 20 years where they can look and decide whether or not to have essentially a constitutional convention. Our constitutions should be like nature. They should be like our world. They should be like our communities. They should be able to grow.” (Courtesy New Mexico Native Census Coalition / Facebook) The 2030 Census is still nearly four years off, but a growing distrust of government has those planning to help with the New Mexico count worried about fairness and representation. Roz Brown has more. The count is conducted every ten years by the U.S. Census Bureau and relies on a vast network of partners and community organizations like the League of Women Voters to help. State Demographer Robert Rhatigan says New Mexico has had a constant problem with undercounting of first-generation immigrant families and Native Americans, primarily because addresses are missing from the Census Bureau’s address list. “Those reasons include non-standard addressing, field work limitations; there’s the language and cultural barriers, and distrust of the federal government. The Hispanic community in particular, and that is a big part of it.” Rhatigan says census undercounts can prevent tribal communities and other groups from receiving federal funding. He notes the state’s financial investment in a program called the Local Update of Census Addresses for the 2020 Census was highly successful – adding more than 100,000 previously overlooked addresses. He believes the state could see more gains if some $300,000 are allocated by the state legislature for the 2030 Census. Compared to other agencies, the Trump administration’s staff cuts to the Census Bureau have been minimal. About 300 workers, or 25% of the Bureau’s employees, were laid off during broader federal downsizing, but Rhatigan worries it still could be detrimental. “That 25% of staff represented well north of 50% of the institutional knowledge, folks who’d been through two or three censuses. So that’s a huge loss.” In 2019, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled the first Trump administration could not include a question about citizenship on the 2020 census form, but there are new efforts in Congress to add a similar question in 2030. States with a majority of Democratic voters argued such a question would discourage legal and illegal immigrants from responding and make the population count less accurate. Rhatigan says there also are efforts underway by Congressional Republicans to limit the Census Bureau’s contact strategies. “The policy in 2020 was six knocks on the doors. They wanna limit that to two contacts. That would be extremely problematic, and it would almost certainly depress the count in New Mexico more so than in other states.” Get National Native News delivered to your inbox daily.

    Workers Are Feeling the AI Squeeze: How It Could Define the Next Housing CyclePodcast Description If you ask the average American, AI is taking over, as are the headlines warning that it's coming for our jobs. Open LinkedIn, and you'll see stories about chatbots replacing employees, hiring freezes, and departments being downsized. But when you dig into the actual data, it's murky at best. So, what's really happening, and how should real estate investors prepare?   On one hand, unemployment remains relatively low, and layoffs aren't surging across the U.S.—not yet at least. In fact, many economists are still projecting positive job growth in the short term. On the other hand, you have growing concerns among what seems like most American workers. Fear about job displacement. Career uncertainty. The pressure to stay employable.   Then there's the trickle-down impact on the housing market. Rising unemployment affects the biggest renter demographic in the nation. Do real estate investors need to temper expectations for rental demand and rent growth for the foreseeable future? Does “conservative” investment analysis need to go to another level? We're breaking it all down, plus much more, on today's show. In This Episode We Cover What to make of “murky” data surrounding AI's impact on the U.S. job market  Why Americans are becoming increasingly worried about AI-caused layoffs (despite “positive” forecasting) Two ways that widespread adoption of AI could affect the housing market Why real estate investors should prepare for lower rental demand and rent growth Which real estate markets are the best long-term bets as AI reshapes the economy And So Much More!

    Happy 4th of July. Here is Critical Incidents newest episode. If you want to be featured, email us at Criticalincidentspod@gmail.com I sat down with retired FBI Special Agent Seamus McAlerney to tell the inside story behind Flipping Capo: How the FBI Dismantled the Real Sopranos. A former bank auditor who was told he'd never make it into the Bureau, Seamus landed on the legendary C-10 squad as a brand-new agent in 1998 just as a botched World Trade Center robbery cracked open one of the most significant organized crime cases in FBI history. Assigned to arrest violent DeCavalcante soldier Anthony Capo, the rookie agent chose respect over intimidation, played a patient game of mental chess, and did what no one in the family's 100-year history had ever done: he got a made member to flip. Seamus takes us deep into the real-life world that inspired The Sopranos - the panel of bosses, the Queens strip club, the murders, and a consensual recording of mobsters watching the show and naming which characters were them. Along the way he breaks down how cooperation actually works: proffers, "eating the indictment," the Witness Security Program, RICO and its predicate acts, and why numbers beat letters when it comes to a plea. He also shares the human cost — contracts on his witness and on law enforcement, losing his father mid-case, 9/11 grinding everything to a halt, friends lost in the towers, and a White House commendation for dismantling not one but two crime families at once. A masterclass in patience, teamwork, and the principle that carried his whole career: persistence beats resistance, and credit will find you.

    In the final part of this three-part series, retired FBI agent Scott brings us to the end of one of the most significant domestic terrorism cases in American history. Justice is served for the people of Oklahoma City. But for Scott, closing a case like this doesn't mean leaving it behind. Some cases stay with you. This is one of them. Retired FBI agent R. Scott Crabtree was born in Herington, KS and raised in Omaha, NE. After high school, he enlisted in the U.S. Marine Corps before getting his college degree in accounting, aconomics, and business. During his nearly 25 years career with the Bureau, Scott was assigned to five different field offices, including New York City, their largest office, and the Salina, KS, Resident Agency, a one-person office, as well as two tours at FBIHQ in Washington D.C. Scott was the lead Kansas investigator of the Oklahoma City Bombing. He later led the Cyber Crime Squad in New York where he worked cases including the "I Love You" virus. After that, he led a rapid task force in Seattle that helped capture the D.C. snipers. After his retirement, Scott was recruited by a non-profit contractor firm where he was able to continue his work supporting and enabling operational, intelligence and information-sharing functions in numerous law enforcement and intelligence agencies. Scott's book about his work with the Oklahoma City bombing case, called Under 80 Hours, was published in 2025. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
