Today's bonus episode of Everything Belongs features hosts Mike Petrow, Carmen Acevedo Butcher, and Drew Jackson in conversation with Chichi Agorom, author of The Enneagram for Black Liberation: Return to Who You Are Beneath the Armor You Carry.   Listen in to explore Chichi's key insights:  Our Enneagram type can be like a suit of armor: protective but sometimes restrictive. She defines vulnerability as a willingness to be impacted without controlling the outcome.  Her three-part framework of power: power over, power within, and power with.  Why collective, shared power matters, especially in moments of cultural upheaval.  The distinction between information, knowledge, and embodied wisdom.  Chichi closes by reflecting on how each Enneagram type carries its own “superpower” that can serve the collective when held with awareness rather than defensiveness.   Today's episode asks us each: Can we see healing not as a solo pursuit, but as a collective effort moving us towards mutual liberation?  Find the transcript for this episode here.

​Topics covered : her upbringing, her late husband, grief, mourning, rebuilding her life, fostering, community, belonging and public service. This week, I'm joined by Helen Ogbu​ - Labour councillor, the newly elected Mayor of Galway, foster carer, life coach and PhD student.Helen made history this year by becoming Galway's first Mayor from a migrant background. But long before politics, her life had already taken her on an extraordinary journey.Growing up in Lagos, Nigeria, Helen was one of eight children in a home where kindness, generosity and caring for others were simply part of everyday life. Those early experiences would later inspire her to become a foster carer, opening her home in Ireland to around 30 children over the years.Helen also shares the deeply personal story of meeting her late husband, Sunny Orji-Ogbu, a principled Nigerian politician who believed passionately that his country deserved honest, accountable leadership. As political tensions intensified, Helen became increasingly fearful for his safety. She moved to Ireland with their young daughter, ChiChi, hoping he would follow. Tragically, in 2010, Sunny was assassinated while returning home from a political meeting. Helen speaks with extraordinary honesty about navigating unimaginable grief, raising her daughter as a young widow, and slowly rebuilding her life in Galway.Today, alongside her work in public service, Helen holds a Master's degree in History and Diplomacy, is currently completing a PhD, and continues to champion community, inclusion and belonging in everything she does​.​C​onnect with Helen:Instagram: ​Helen Ogbu (@iamhelenogbu) • Instagram photos and videosLabour Party profile: Helen Ogbu Hosted on Acast.

We just stepped into the villa and we had a lot to unpack. The cast for this season has been great in their individuality, but as a couple we begged to differ. I had my first OG on this podcast. Chichi definitely, is not having it with these islanders .

In Uptown New Orleans, Freret Street is one of the city's most vibrant corridors – a favorite neighborhood artery for food and nightlife. But this wasn't always the case. Following decades of decline, Freret Street underwent a remarkable revitalization after Hurricane Katrina, becoming a symbol of the city's post-storm rebirth. A leading pioneer this culinary comeback is Chef Adolfo Garcia, whose Freret Street restaurants, High Hat Café and Ancora, became dining destinations in the early 2010s. On this week's show, we look at the career of the legendary chef and explore Freret Street – then and now. We begin with Chef Adolfo, who was born and raised in suburban New Orleans, the son of Panamanian parents. Adolfo has spent the last 40 years creating interesting and innovative restaurants that have introduced New Orleanians to flavors from around the world. He's served cuisines such as Nuevo Latin, Italian, Southern comfort, Neapolitan, and Argentine – always insisting on authenticity and excellence. Adolfo's eateries have included RioMar, Primitivo, and La Boca Steakhouse. Then, we hear from the next generation. Chef Adolfo Garcia Jr. and his wife and business partner Sophia Petrou Garcia are building their own empire on Freret Street with Chi Chi's Chicken & Beer and their wood-fired Spanish restaurant, Dolfy's. Both were raised in the business. While Adolfo Jr. was polishing silverware at RioMar, Sophia was helping serve breakfast and lunch at her family's Lakefront restaurant, Russell's Marina Grill. The couple talk about their journey back home after a decade working in the New York culinary scene and beyond. Finally, Fredo Nogueira and Ryan Iriarte discuss carrying on the legacy of the High Hat Café. The newest co-owners of the Freret Street mainstay talk about Chef Adolfo's mentorship and fill us in on their latest endeavor on Freret, Cuban restaurant Café Conmigo.

This week, we get into 2009's Dragonball Evolution. I don't watch any anime, and don't even know what a Dragon Ball is. This movie is trash though. I know nothing about the lore, and was deeply upset. I could only imagine what it must have felt like to be that invested in a franchise, only for the dim-witted cum baby of Jessie Pinkman and the “Dude, You're Getting a Dell” guy to be the reluctant hero on this loser's journey. Basically, Dragonball is Draggin' Balls! “Dude, you're getting a Dell” guy dunks on demons and doesn't die, unfortunately … den he uses da dragon balls! Big bag buffering in the barrens! Very not Dragonball-ish! Chi-Chi's hot little box! Frenetic finger flaps! Piccolo force-choking a house! Dragonball energy seekers! Stone temple covered in karate people! Spraying your spirit gel! Evaporated meteor baby monkey lords!

For more than a year, a seven-foot creature with glowing red eyes and folded wings terrorized Point Pleasant, West Virginia—and just weeks after the sightings stopped, the Silver Bridge collapsed and killed 46 people, leaving the town to wonder whether the Mothman had been a monster, a warning, or something far worse.EPISODE BLOG PAGE (includes sources and full transcript): https://weirddarkness.com/RedEyesOfMothmanREAD or DOWNLOAD the full transcript of this episode:https://weirddarkness.tiny.us/2p8s2fxtFEATURED STORIES IN THIS EPISODE: Most everyone is familiar with the King James Bible, but did you know that King James also wrote a book on demonology during the witch hunts and trials? (The King James Book of Demonology) *** Her gravestone, decorated with a cross and flowers, reads “Jerrilynn S. Mullins — Beloved wife and best friend.” It could also be added, “a victim of a crime that will likely never be solved.” (The Unsolved Mystery of Jerrilyn Mullins) *** It was on November 15th 1966 that Point Pleasant, West Virginia had its first experience with what later became known as the Mothman. Many believe it was either the cause of a horrific bridge collapse, or perhaps a harbinger of the doom that was soon to come. The mystery remains to this day – as do some of the eerie happenings in the area. (Mothman Attacks) ** 17-year-old Kendrick Johnson was found dead in his high school's gym – but the circumstances of his death have brought more questions than answers.

Copyright ©2026, Weird Darkness.Originally aired: November 15, 2021This episode of Weird Darkness, hosted by Darren Marlar, moves from a winged cryptid haunting a West Virginia river town to a Georgia teenager found dead inside a rolled wrestling mat, a Minnesota newlywed who vanished from a restaurant parking lot, and a king of England who wrote a manual on demons.It opens with the Mothman, first reported on November 15, 1966, when two young married couples driving past an abandoned World War II TNT plant near Point Pleasant, West Virginia, spotted a six- or seven-foot gray figure with folded wings and glowing red eyes that rose into the air and pursued their car down Highway 62 at over 100 miles per hour. That same night, contractor Newell Partridge of Salem watched his television fill with a strange pattern before his dog Bandit chased two red eyes toward the hay barn and disappeared forever, and the next day Roger Scarberry described passing a large dog's body near the city limits that was gone minutes later. Over the following year roughly 100 people, including Marcella Bennett, reported the creature alongside UFO sightings and men in black, and on December 15, 1967, the 700-foot Silver Bridge linking Point Pleasant to Ohio collapsed during rush hour and killed 46 people, cementing the belief that the Mothman had been a harbinger of the disaster.From there the episode turns to Kendrick Johnson, the 17-year-old three-sport athlete found dead on January 11, 2013, stuffed head-down inside a rolled wrestling mat in the old gym at Lowndes High School in Valdosta, Georgia. Investigators ruled the death an accidental positional asphyxia, theorizing the boy fell in reaching for a shoe, but his 19-inch shoulders could not fit through the mat's 14-inch opening, an hour of footage from all four gym cameras was missing and altered, and his organs were found removed and replaced with newspaper. A second and third autopsy revealed blunt force trauma to his neck and right chest, a fabricated confession recording sold to his family for $1,000 was exposed as a hoax by Sheriff Ashley Paulk, and the case, which once entangled FBI agent Randy Bell's sons Brandon and Brian Bell, was officially reopened on March 10, 2021.Vanishing from a restaurant parking lot is what happened next to Jerrilyn Mullins, a 28-year-old Oakdale, Minnesota, newlywed who left the dinner table at a Chi Chi's in Richfield around 9:00 p.m. on November 15, 1978, and was last seen by her husband's coworker Patrick Melbourne, who said he drove her 22 miles back to a Howard Johnson's and left her there. Her decomposed body surfaced in a Lake Elmo swamp on June 30, 1979, identified through dental records and jewelry, with two autopsies unable to determine a cause of death though her stomach contents placed her killing within an hour of leaving the restaurant. Melbourne, who carried a long record of sexual assault allegations and was later convicted of crimes against a 10-year-old girl, remained the prime suspect; husband Ron Mullins lost a 1989 wrongful-death civil suit for lack of evidence, and the Washington County case stayed unsolved when Melbourne died in 2015.The episode closes with King James VI and I, who returned from a 1589 trip to Denmark obsessed with witchcraft and published Daemonologie in 1597, the only treatise of its kind written by a reigning monarch. In its pages he catalogued the signs of demonic possession, describing superhuman strength exceeding six men, iron-hard skin that could not be pierced, and victims speaking languages they never learned, while arguing that demons inhabit the corpses of the pious and that only prayer and fasting, not Catholic ritual, could repel them. He acknowledged werewolves as men suffering an excess of melancholy rather than cursed creatures, dismissed fairies as illusions sent by the Devil, fixed the ratio of female to male witches at 20 to 1 by reasoning that women were more easily deceived as Eve had been, and produced a work that fueled the European and colonial witch hunts and shaped the weird sisters of William Shakespeare's Macbeth.

If you and your spouse are struggling with mismatched desires around sex, the real issue is often a breakdown in emotional intimacy — not just physical drive. Start by asking each other how connected you truly feel emotionally and spiritually, and invest in growing those areas together. 9 Days to Great Sex eBook: https://www.daveandashley.com/9-days-to-great-sex 21 Day Inner Healing Journey: https://store.xomarriage.com/collections/books/products/21-day-inner-healing-journey https://www.xonow.com Download our FREE 31 Day Marriage Devotional: https://bit.ly/3ZxsLZd _______________ We want your marriage to thrive!

Every marriage is shaping a legacy, whether we realize it or not. Listener question: My husband and I seem to have trouble with compromising. This may seem trivial but it really does have an affect on both of us. I always like to have all of the blinds and curtains in our home open during the day and he likes to have them all shut except maybe one window letting in a little bit of light. I feel like I need the natural light to feel more energized and happy, I suffer from depression and anxiety and being in a dark environment doesn't help. He says that he is compromising by having blinds on one window partially open. He feels that I just want things my way. Do you have any advice for us?

My husband talks to me harshly sometimes and I feel I need to walk on eggshells. My 2 year old pics up on it and even told his dad to get out of the room this morning.
