We are excited to have James Renner as our special guest on True Crime Broads: James Renner is mostly known for his true-crime journalism. As a reporter for Cleveland Scene, he uncovered new clues and suspects in the cold-case murder of Amy Mihaljevic (⁠http://www.cnn.com/2015/10/30/tech/crowdsourced-cold-cases-james-renner-amy-mihaljevic-feat/⁠). His work led to the successful closure of the Tina Harmon case (⁠http://www.indeonline.com/article/20081126/NEWS/311269903⁠) in 2009. He spent months researching the Amanda Berry and Gina DeJesus abductions when the girls were still missing and is haunted by the fact that he had Castro's name in his notes (⁠http://www.cracked.com/personal-experiences-1614-i-hunt-serial-killers-6-insane-realities-my-life.html⁠). His true crime writing has been featured in the Best American Crime Reporting anthology. His selection was the first true crime article to use a dream sequence as a narrative device. Renner has always been interested in filmmaking, as well. In 2004, Renner directed a short film based on the Stephen King story, All That You Love Will Be Carried Away.

Doug Trattner fell into food writing after a short career as a public defender and never imagined being the go-to guy for food news in Northeast Ohio. He's covered food for most major Ohio outlets, but is best known for being the super sleuth of restaurant news for Cleveland Scene and a collaborator on seven cookbooks with Chef Michael Symon. I loved talking about his unconventional start and reflecting on how the food biz has changed during the years he has covered it. During the first few months of the pandemic a Scene Magazine crowdfund campaign ensured he would be one of the first correspondents to come back to chronicle the unprecedented times. We've come to rely on Doug for breaking food news, his take on where we should be eating, and also some behind-the-scenes views of our beloved food community. We talk about all of Doug's interests, including Barb the RV and gardening, and he shares some things he's looking forward to this upcoming year. Follow him on Instagram for good food (and more) content you'll enjoy! SPONSORS: This podcast is made possible with support from Chef Douglas Katz, Perfectly Imperfect Produce and Ohio Wines.

Episode 24 Barbara 'Barbie' BlatnikIn the last episode of DNA: ID's 2021 season, we examine the 1987 murder of Barbie Blatnik. The 17 year old girl was last seen being dropped off to visit her boyfriend at 2:30 a.m. on December 20th in their hometown of Garfield Heights, Ohio. Her body was found the next morning, miles away in Cuyahoga Falls. She had been raped and brutalized. Her case was plagued by too many suspects, jurisdictional confusion, and lost evidence. For more than 30 years, Barbie's family had no answers to who killed her. Finally, forensic genealogy pointed them right back to the place where Barbie had last been seen, and a suspect whose name was never in the case file. And he had his own troubling disappearance in his family.

One of the most famous haunted houses in all of Ohio is located on Franklin Boulevard, and known to most as Franklin Castle.  This glorious home, though not a castle, has a unique architectural style, described as “Victorian eclectic”  Its stone face and castle turret are strongly reminiscent of Shirley Jackson's Hill House (the book, not the poorly adapted Netflix show).  However, can Franklin Castle hold a candle to Hill House?  Tales of a family curse, a stern patriarch prone to fits of rage, murder, staged suicides, incest, Nazis, and infanticide all surround this kingly estate.

DC’s Mike James and Mollie Ames discuss: All terrestrial segments were recorded live on June 5th (Day 157 of 2020), and all podcast segments were recorded live on June 7th (Day 159 of 2020)   Your brain just isn't as elastic when you get older and it's harder to handle and accept new things. Which is just one aspect of scientific understanding of why it is so tough to get most adults to accept and adapt to significant change (and the older they get this only gets worse and worse). (Part 1 of 3 of the Podcast only content) Living in a militarized police state has been 50 years in the making, so don't believe the lies from our political leaders and police forces who tell you otherwise. (please read the book "The Rise Of The Warrior Cop" for more on this shocking historical truth) You'll never believe what stadium the LA Police decided to use as a "field jail" to detain the mass arrests of protesters, that is unless you've actually been paying attention during any of this. Mayor Frank Jackson tells everyone that Cleveland is viewed as the butt(fart) of America, but if you listen to the whole hour long interview instead of just that 7 seconds of viral stupidity, you'll hear that's far from the only shockingly dumb thing he said. Critical thinking is needed no matter what kind of difference you try to affect, and now more than ever. Even things you thought you can trust can turnout to be misleading. (Part 2 of 3 of the Podcast only content, begins around the 1:25:00 mark) Lachlan MacKinnon’s ‘Best of Edition’ Let Me Tell You A Story:  "The Walking Wounded"  (begins around the 1:47:00 mark) Philly sure does pick and choose which demonstrations in their city they're okay with and those they're not okay with. Remember 20 years ago when JayZ didn't appear to be a corporate-white-America sellout yet... Playing a new version of the Hunger Games where we target all those in the sports world who've recently pronounced themselves as clearly being on the wrong side of history. Meanwhile, Martellus Bennett is firmly on the right side of history. No question. #RealSportsHero Mollie's Weekly Reports: Brace yourself July 4th EMT's and firemen, they're about (entirely) legalize fireworks in Ohio, rethinking CBDs, and Spanish pornstar faces manslaughter for believing he was a shaman and overdosing someone with psychedelic frog poison.  (Part 3 of 3 of the Podcast only content, begins around the 2:49:00 mark) The NBA is about to come back again and the only thing we're sure of is that it's sure to be a lot different than anything the NBA has ever done before. MLB is looking like it's not coming back, and if it doesn't the only reason will be that of overarching greed. Specifically the unscrupulous greed of the billionaire owners. Cleveland Scene has been doing tremendous work of late but they also published a wholly satirical piece that wasn't all that funny (and has since been removed), so we try to help clean up their original idea a little bit. Mollie’s Weekly Reports, terrestrial edition! – Chagrin Falls reaction to a BLM rally is exactly what's to be expected from the the outer-rim (aka, white middle America), and is seeing so many black helicopters overhead making you feel like you're all a coke'd up and paranoid like Ray Liotta in Goodfellas? It should. All this and so much more on this episode of the Defend Cleveland Podcast.

You might remember that I used to do the podcast for Cleveland Scene Magazine. (@ClevelandScene) One of the journalists that helped me tell the stories of the day on that podcast was Eric Sandy. While he still occasionally works with the folks at Scene, he's moved on to the Cannabis Biz Times.  For just under an hour, we talked about what it's like to cover the cannabis business out of Cleveland. What are some of the biggest business issues that exist today as cannabis heads toward further legalization state-by-state across the country. Does COVID-19 do anything to the momentum toward legalization? We also discuss CBD and Eric's latest non-cannabis cover story for Scene. Learn more about your ad choices.

Brent Kirby’s been called by many of his peers one of Cleveland’s hardest working musicians and his actions prove that. In 2013, Brent Kirby was voted “Best Singer” and also “Best Male Vocal” by the Cleveland Scene, and 2012, he was voted “Best Musician”. When he is not playing solo or with his band, called His Luck, he writes the tunes and fronts the Jack Fords (2007, 2009 Best Rock Band Cleveland Scene), leads the monthly revival of Gram Parsons with his band The New Soft Shoe, and plays drums for the talented Cleveland holiday band, the Ohio City Singers. His 10 x 3 Songwriter showcase weekly series at Brothers Lounge has created an encouraging, vibrant original music scene.

I’ve known Cutleri for about a decade going back to when I first started playing music in 2009. It was at Penny’s Open Mic that I first discovered Cutleri when they were the featured guest. They immediately stood out, from the sheer number of instruments and musical toys amassed around them. Heidi Harris would play everything from piano or blower keyboard to thunder-makers and finger chimes, Christen Napier perfectly plucked away at her banjo while Jessie Shaffer shifted from barnyard fiddling to concert soloist mode on her violin. All the while the trio is tossing out haunting harmonies and rattling their ankles, which were just covered in bells. Cutleri is truly a band to behold, which is why I booked them for my variety show the Carnivale as many times as I could. Several years back, Cutleri had to disband as the three sirens set sail for separate seas. They recently reunited to record a new album, and hope to continue to circle back to each other over the years. Today we talk about how and where they came together, how they approach songwriting, and what projects they’ve been working on in the years since Cutleri was playing regularly in NYC. They may not be playing live anymore, but you can still find their music on Spotify and Bandcamp, and you can follow them at the links below: Cutleri: https://cutleri.bandcamp.com https://www.instagram.com/cutleri_band/ Jessi Shaffer: https://www.instagram.com/littlestbirdmusic Heidi Harris: https://soundcloud.com/heidi-harris-1 Vote for BZ Listening as "Best Local Podcast" in Cleveland Scene's 2019 list: http://bit.ly/vote4bz2019

While Washington Post reporter Kyle Swenson (who formerly worked for Cleveland Scene) was in town promoting his new book ("Good Kids. Bad City"), we were joined by current and former Scene writers Sam Allard and Eric Sandy to discuss the importance of journalism in holding power accountable and uncovering and telling the truth in the pursuit of justice. We also discuss their respective times working at Cleveland Scene, their involvement in starting a new wave of journalism for the publication, and the importance of alt-weeklies both in small cities and as a wake-up call to journalists who stick to the coasts, rather than taking up crucial positions in local journalism in flyover country. The intro song for this episode is "Going to Canada" by Racket Man. You can find their music on Spotify or purchase their music on bandcamp (racketman.bandcamp.com/). The outro for this episode is a beat graciously shared by aLive of Muamin Collective. Find their music on their website (muamincollective.com/) and listen to them on Spotify. Show notes and relevant articles: 1. "What the Boy Saw." Kyle's article in Scene that was the precursor to the book, and played a huge role in getting Ricky Jackson and Wiley Bridgeman freed.

Cleveland Scene's Sam Allard by Will Burge

Renner is the author of The Serial Killer's Apprentice and several other works of nonfiction. His true crime stories have appeared in The Best American Crime Writing anthology, as well the Cleveland Scene and Cracked.com. His method of using social media to solve cold cases was the subject of a CNN profile, in 2015. The Great Forgetting(2015 Sarah Crichton Books) In The Man from Primrose Lane, James Renner fused time travel with serial-killer thrillers, resulting in what the Associated Press called "a superbly crazy and imaginative story." Now, in The Great Forgetting, he blends science fiction and conspiracy thrillers with a touch of pure fantasy, and the result is just as crazy and imaginative. jamesrenner.com Follow him on Twitter Follow him on Facebook  

Today I wanted to talk about the national and local perspective of the Cavs and the Browns. It feels so paranoid, angry and negative locally, but that also can sometimes feel accurate. In various cases, that perspective is backed up nationally. So what's the right perspective? I talked to Cleveland Scene's new owner Andrew Zelman and on of Scene's many resident sports fans, Sam Allard. You should follow these guys on Twitter as well.
