Welcome back to Cult Season, where we continue our sincere attempt to make you feel a little bit worse about the world and everything in it.This week, we turn to Stefan Molyneux, online pioneer, prolific content creator, and self-proclaimed most popular philosopher in the world. Alternatively his wikipedia entry describes him as "an Irish-born Canadian white nationalist podcaster and proponent of conspiracy theories, white supremacy, scientific racism, and the men's rights movement." Charming...One thing is for sure: Molyneux is the only man alive who can turn literally any question into a monologue that combines demonic liberals, cutting off friends and family, and female reproductive choices. A true Renaissance man for people who hate Renaissance values.In this first episode we take a brief tour through the Molyneux Expanded Universe™, which includes some infamous clips from his early days as the creator of an online 'philosophy' cult themed around anti-spanking, anarcho-capitalism, and misogyny. We also cover his pivot to MAGA apologetics and overt white nationalism and finally to late-stage Molyneux, where he now lurks in Twitter Spaces, berating callers and insisting the world is populated by demon-ridden NPCs gleefully urinating on their moral superiors.Look forward to learning about his extensive rhetorical techniques, which include thin-skinned narcissism, a penchant for violent metaphors usually featuring urine and anal torture, his constant demand that listeners cut off their families and, of course, his favourite claim: that anyone who disagrees with him is a man-whore NPC who wants to kill you.Also featuring:A Weinstein cameo (because of course)Chris recounting the proto–Decoding the Gurus origin story involving a Facebook post and some early Molyneux contentAnd a rare chance to hear Matt physically wince at a Rocky Horror cold openIf you've ever wanted to hear a preening narcissist berate his listener for raising entirely reasonable points... well, this is the episode for you.Scott Adams should be careful, a new contender has emerged for his crown...Part 2 coming soon, assuming we survive this one.LinksFreedomain Radio 6162: The Most Frightening Fact!

In an attempt to court the favour of the post-Assad regime in Syria, western countries have recently de-proscribed former terrorist groups.

LaTascia Taylor thought she had met her fairy tale. Charming. Successful. Confident. The kind of man who walks into your life and makes you feel seen. But what started as love quickly unraveled into manipulation, danger, and a criminal empire she never saw coming. What LaTascia didn't know was that the man she fell for was running a major drug operation. And little by little, he pulled her in. First moving money across state lines… then transporting packages… and eventually flying internationally with drugs hidden in luggage. She found herself in way too deep — and on a flight to Europe, everything came crashing down. Arrested. In a foreign country. No support. No way home. And stuck for 2 years in an overseas prison. #truecrime #survivalstory #prisonstories #traumarecovery #toxicrelationships #drugtrafficking #lockedinwithianbick #secondchances Thank you to BLUECHEW & BRUNT for sponsoring this episode: BlueChew: Visit https://bluechew.com/ and use promo code LOCKEDIN at checkout to get your first month of BlueChew & pay five bucks for shipping.

In this episode of Busy Gallivanting, I'm sharing stories from my solo trip to Charleston, South Carolina — a city that completely surprised me. What started as a spontaneous getaway turned into an unexpected connection to the South: from wandering through pastel-lined streets and exploring centuries-old architecture to savoring the café and boutique culture that gives Charleston its quiet charm.Somewhere between reflection and curiosity, I found myself on a self-guided The Notebook tour, tracing scenes from the film without even meaning to — and realizing how travel often mirrors where we are in life. This trip became less about checking off sights and more about slowing down, listening, and being present in a place that felt both new and nostalgic.

Driving Renault’s Megane E-Tech SUV – a small French SUV with a difference, setting it apart from the look alike new breed of Chinese electric cars. At $54,990 plus on-road costs more than competitive, cheaper than Volvo’s EX30 and in a way more charming. The styling impressive, hatch like with large 20-inch wheels tucked into the corners. Step inside and it breathes clever design, quality materials and individuality. With a lightweight 60kWh battery feeding a single electric motor driving the front wheels it offers a driving range of 454Km which I found accurate. Relatively light for an electric car with a slim lightweight battery under the floor I found the energy consumption excellent at 14.1 kWh/100km. Electric cars tend to ride harder` due to battery weight – not so for the Megane E-Tech, extremely comfortable helped by great seats although disappointing only with manual adjustment. Welcome five-star safety plus four available drive modes that noticeably change the complexion of the drive, while steering feel is a high point. As I said earlier, it feels more premium in all it does apart from some tyre roar on courser road surfaces. I came away very impressed with this electric Renault Megane – appealingly different and a classy small French SUV.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

As we discuss this story, we talk about the wealthy people who used to come to Kentucky to "take the waters." We also chat about her love for her farm, walking her dogs, and listening to audio books. Patrons will hear what she might have done if she hadn't become an author. The Pursuit of Elena Bradford by Ann GabhartNothing would please her family more than her securing an admirable match, but true love and loyalty are harder to come by than she imagined. At twenty-two, Elena Bradford has never met a man who made her consider marriage. But when her father dies and leaves the family deeply in debt, Elena becomes their only hope. Her mother uses their last funds to take Elena and her younger sister to Graham Springs, Kentucky, where people find healing by drinking the mineral spring water and healthy recreation through the many daily activities--including dances almost every evening. As her mother schemes to find Elena a wealthy husband, Elena finds herself drawn to two men her mother would never consider. Charming artist Kirby Frazier spends his days drawing and painting the guests, but his real mission is to find a wealthy bride to finance his dream to go west. Melancholy Andrew Harper has come to Graham Springs in need of healing after a broken heart. When a beautiful young lady shows up at the Springs with no chaperone and a story that seems suspicious, nearly everyone is charmed and intrigued. But when an unexpected tragedy occurs, Elena, Kirby, and Andrew will all be faced with decisions of life, love, and loyalty.With a Southern flair and a spark of intrigue, this stand-alone clean historical romance will charm readers with masterful artists, colorful dances, a love triangle, and endearing family relationships.Get your copy of The Pursuit of Elena Bradford by Ann Gabhart.Meet Ann Gabhart:Hi, glad you could stop by to get to know me better. I'm a country girl, born and raised on a farm in the Outer Bluegrass region of Kentucky. I know you're thinking horse farm, but no, not out my way. Mostly cows on the farms around here. My grandfather did have a big old workhorse when I was a little girl. My family grew tobacco and corn. We had a few milk cows, some hogs and sheep, but mostly beef cattle. I grew up working on the farm and enjoying the woods and animals. My roots go deep in the land, and I now live on a farm just a mile away from the farmhouse where I was raised.I started writing when I was ten and have been writing ever since. My first published writings (personal experience pieces, youth stories, and poems) were in church periodicals like Home Life. My first novel, A Forbidden Yearning, a historical romance about the settling of Kentucky, was published by Warner Books in 1978. Since then I've published forty other novels for adults and young adults. Some of the early titles are out of print now but still floating around out there as used books.Visit Ann Gabhart's website.

A country girl, born and raised on a farm in the Outer Bluegrass region of Kentucky, Ann H. Gabhart is the bestselling author of many novels, including historical novels, mysteries, non-fiction, and books for young adult readers. She and her husband live on a farm a mile from where she was born in rural Kentucky. Ann enjoys discovering the everyday wonders of nature while hiking in her farm's fields and woods with her grandchildren and her dogs, Frankie and Marley. A Decades-Long Career Ann takes us back to her early days writing, and describes how she came to publish her first novel and discover this was something she would continue doing her whole life long. She includes a few details from the story that she says she's never shared in an interview before. Kentucky Hot Springs As a native of Kentucky, Ann loves finding new and interesting history to explore in her home state. Her latest novel, The Pursuit of Elena Bradford, takes us to Graham Springs, a natural hot spring known as "The Saratoga of the West" during the mid-1800s. She shares some of her research about the founder of this spa-like vacation destination tucked in rural Kentucky. Complex Characters Elena Bradford, heroine of Ann's latest book, is torn between two men -- and the duty she owes to her family. Ann discusses the backstory and motivations of her characters, setting the stage for a people-driven story in a lush and luxurious historical setting. Connect with Ann at her website, where you can subscribe to her newsletter, and on Facebook, Instagram, X, Pinterest, and Bookbub.

Charming and accessible, "Outside In and the Inside Out" by Emmy Kastner is the biographical picture book about Arnold Lobel, a Schenectady native, the Newberry and Caldecott award-winning author-illustrator behind the beloved Frog and Toad series. Arnold Lobel was many things: a quiet observer, an avid reader, and the kind of man who kept a gorilla suit in his closet, just in case. Above all else, Arnold was an artist and a storyteller. And he infused pieces of himself in the characters he created.Emmy Kastner is an author and illustrator of several books for children, including While You're Asleep and the Nerdy Babies board book series. She will be at the Main Schenectady County Public Library at 6PM tonight.

I have a conversation with Bill Alverson, a pageant and rush coach, criminal/divorce attorney, and the inspiration behind Netflix's Insatiable - to talk about Lifetime's A Sorority Mom's Guide to Rush and everything that makes it tick. Bill shares how TikTok led producers to his 30+ years of coaching, why he insists moms are present for safety and transparency, and how his legal work shaped his stance on believing women while guarding against weaponized accusations—no matter the gender or relationship. We get real about being openly gay in small-town Alabama, “passive activism,” family dynamics around coming out, and why visibility at home matters. He breaks down the show's authenticity (no contrived drama), the ethics of coaching, body image pitfalls (and how to dress for your body), reading the room, basic etiquette (say thank you!), and real progress in Greek life for women of color and LGBTQ+ students. We also dive into the wild ride from Coach Charming to Insatiable, how his life split into two characters on screen, and what he wants next.

Most disappearances leave echoes—missing persons flyers, TV reports, police pleas for tips. But when James Robert “Jimmy” Farenthold vanished in the spring of 1989, there was only silence. No bulletin. No headlines. No public outcry. Just absence.Jimmy wasn't just anyone. He was the youngest son of one of Texas's most prominent dynasties, a family bound by oil, politics, and power. But behind the legacy was a private story of grief and dysfunction. Jimmy had been born a twin—and when his brother Vincent died suddenly, Jimmy became the “one who lived,” carrying scars that shaped the rest of his life.Charming yet reckless, Jimmy drifted through addiction, rehab programs, and cities across the South. In April 1989, he promised a fresh start. Bags packed, ticket in hand, he was set to enter a Florida treatment program. Instead, he disappeared. His car, his passport, even his clothes—left behind.What followed was not the frantic search you'd expect for the son of a famous family. Instead, his disappearance became another fracture inside an already divided household. A father chasing rumors. A mother haunted by silence. A family dynasty unraveling.Part 3 of 3 of our series follows Jimmy's apparent final days, the dead ends that followed, and the generational weight of a name built on both power and tragedy.If you have information about the disappearance of James Robert “Jimmy” Farenthold, please contact the San Antonio Police Department at 210-207-8939. Sources: The Corpus Christi Caller-Times, The Port Aransas South Jetty, The Houston Chronicle, The San Antonio Express-News, Texas Monthly, Texas Observer, texashistory.unt.edu, The Los Angeles Times, The University of Texas School of Law – Frances Tarlton “Sissy” Farenthold Archives ProjectYou can support gone cold and listen to the show ad-free at https://patreon.com/gonecoldpodcastFind us at https://www.gonecold.comFor Gone Cold merch, visit https://gonecold.dashery.com Follow gone cold on Facebook, Instagram, Threads, TikTok, YouTube, and X.

Gabhart  Nothing would please her family more than her securing an admirable match, but true love and loyalty are harder to come by than she imagined. At twenty-two, Elena Bradford has never met a man who made her consider marriage. But when her father dies and leaves the family deeply in debt, Elena becomes their only hope. Her mother uses their last funds to take Elena and her younger sister to Graham Springs, Kentucky, where people find healing by drinking the mineral spring water and healthy recreation through the many daily activities--including dances almost every evening.

Charming artist Kirby Frazier spends his days drawing and painting the guests, but his real mission is to find a wealthy bride to finance his dream to go west.

This week, we watched Borderline, the chaotic, genre-defying directorial debut from Cocaine Bear writer Jimmy Warden, because when you've written a movie about a bear on blow, where else do you go but into the mind of a lovesick sociopath?Ray Nicholson (yes, his last name is what you think it is) stars as Paul, a guy so obsessed with pop star Sofia (Samara Weaving) that he thinks stalking her is a meet-cute.
