Did Diddy Tamper With Witnesses To Secure Not-Guilty Verdict Description: Two key witnesses were expected. Two never showed. And shortly after, the most serious charges—sex trafficking, racketeering, kidnapping, arson—quietly disappeared from the jury's hands. Coincidence? Or something darker? In this gripping episode, attorney and former prosecutor Eric Faddis joins us to tackle one of the most lingering, uncomfortable questions surrounding the Diddy verdict: Did Sean “Diddy” Combs tamper with witnesses to secure his not-guilty outcome? We break down what we know about Victim #3 and Victim #5—two alleged survivors who were listed in pre-trial filings, referenced in jury prep, and reportedly prepped by the government… until they vanished. There was no testimony, no explanation, and no redirect. And in their absence, the case lost its teeth. Eric explores: What counts as witness tampering under federal law Why tampering is notoriously hard to prove—even when it's suspected How fear, intimidation, or power imbalance can silence victims without leaving a trail What prosecutors typically do to secure vulnerable witnesses—and why it might've failed here We also examine what legal tools prosecutors have when witnesses back out mid-trial, and why jurors often interpret missing testimony as evidence that the government is hiding something—or that a case isn't as strong as it seems. Whether this was tampering, trauma, or trial mismanagement, one thing is clear: the absence of these witnesses dramatically altered the case's trajectory. And for a man accused of orchestrating years of systemic abuse, silence may have been his most powerful ally. #DiddyTrial #WitnessTampering #MissingWitnesses #EricFaddis #TrialAnalysis #JusticeSystemFailure #SexTraffickingCase #FederalCrimes #CourtroomTactics #HiddenKillers Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Sunday Evening Service
What begins with two teens wearing the same red-and-white striped hat becomes a 60-year story of friendship, rebellion, and synchronicity. In this episode, Dr. Beitman reconnects with his best friend from high school, Robert Warner, to trace the strange parallels in their lives—from co-presidency and bonfires to resistance movements and life-changing coincidences. It's a journey of shared purpose, mirrored actions, and the mysterious thread that keeps pulling them back together.Robert Warner is a retired reverend, longtime educator, and former political activist whose life took him from the student council presidency of a Delaware high school to the frontlines of antiwar resistance during the Vietnam era. A Princeton Theological Seminary graduate, Bob once burned down an ROTC building in protest and lived underground in Canada for three years, raising a family while evading the FBI. Later, he ran a successful chimney sweep business for 37 years. Bob's enduring friendship with Bernie Beitman was forged through a chance synchronicity in high school—their matching red-and-white striped hats—and has grown stronger over more than six decades of parallel and intersecting journeys.Bernard D. Beitman, MD, is a Yale- and Stanford-educated psychiatrist and the founder of The Coincidence Project. He served as chair of the Department of Psychiatry at the University of Missouri-Columbia and has authored two books, Connecting with Coincidence and Meaningful Coincidences. Through his Psychology Today blog, podcast, and public appearances, he has reached millions with his groundbreaking work in the emerging field of Coincidence Studies.

In this episode, we visit Hillsong's mothership in Baulkham Hills so you don't have to! We unpack the atmosphere, the music, the offering, the supposed miracles, the sermon and the continued exploitation of volunteers. Join us as we reflect on the evolving, yet somehow still familiar landscape of the 'new' Hillsong and its diminishing impact on those of us who have left the faith.Key takeaways:Atmosphere and Scale: Hillsong's grand scale and corporate feel can be both impressive and overwhelming, reflecting its status as a mega church.Volunteer Involvement: The church relies heavily on volunteers, highlighting the importance of community involvement in its operations.Sermon Analysis: Pastor Robert Ferguson's sermon emphasized movement and miracles, but raised questions about interpretation and relevance for exvangelicals.Cultural Diversity: The diverse congregation at Hillsong showcases the church's broad appeal and the changing demographics of modern Christianity.Community Connection: Despite the large scale, the sense of community and belonging remains a strong draw for attendees.Comparative Reflections: The visit prompted reflections on past church experiences and the evolution of evangelical practices.Emotional Responses: The service evoked a range of emotions, from nostalgia to skepticism, among those familiar with evangelical culture.Impact on Exvangelicals: The experience highlighted the ongoing influence of mega churches and their role in the faith journeys of those who have left. ---We're now on video on YouTube here.Want more?

When Nancy's grandmother died, she consoled herself by pretending Grandma was simply traveling. Nine years later—after a late-night radio reading with a Cleveland medium—pretending was no longer an option. The medium nailed intimate details no stranger could guess, right down to Nancy's secret nightly ritual of twin green ice-cream scoops. Then, moments after the call, an ancient bedroom TV blasted to life at full volume, its snowstorm static shaking the walls. Coincidence…or Grandma throwing the world's loudest hello?

Gayatri Kalyanaraman is in conversation with Dr. Fred Jordan, CEO and Co-Founder at AlpVision and FinalSpark - Expert anticounterfeit technologies - Expert biocomputing talks about his journey to make a difference in AI and what propelled him to do that. 1. Early Career — Curiosity, Coincidence, and CounterfeitsFred describes himself modestly as a French physicist who stumbled into entrepreneurship by "provoking luck."He and his co-founder Martin Kutter began with research in digital watermarking, creating invisible marks on media.Their startup AlfVision emerged from this — aimed at detecting counterfeit goods using image analysis.Lessons from early failures (9 out of 10 products failed) were key to refining their success. 2. Making the Mark — Patents, Passion, and Intellectual PropertyFred emphasizes building a business around passion, but insists on profitability too.He stresses the importance of understanding finance, even for technical founders.As a multi-founder and active programmer, he still codes when needed — including writing software that led to a patent and successful tech deployment in China. 3. Creating a Legacy — Bio-Neurons and a Sustainable FutureFinal Spark emerged from Fred and Martin's desire to return to fundamental research, after years of commercial success.Their mission: dramatically reduce the energy and resources required to run AI by leveraging real neurons instead of digital simulations — achieving up to 1 million times greater energy efficiency.In their lab in Switzerland, they've created a testbed where biological neural tissues are grown, connected via electrodes, and streamed in real-time — with microfluidics feeding them 24/7.Fred draws a direct parallel between learning in artificial neural networks (via adjusting weights) and the biological challenge of inducing learning by reconfiguring synaptic connections. This forms the crux of building a true biological computing server. “When you have artificial neurons, learning is done by setting the right connections between them. We need to do the same in biology. That's how humans learn — and that's what we have to replicate in vitro.”The long-term vision is bold:Create biological servers at scale (10cm x 100m tissues) that could power AI with drastically less energy.Biological intelligence becoming mainstream — just as LED lights replaced incandescent bulbs.A future with hybrid bio-artificial objects — think of a glass that detects your mood and adjusts your drink accordingly.Breakaway quote-worthy moments “Trial and error is really precious... Being a co-founder, failures teach you very, very valuable lessons.” “I'm not building something for today — I want it to make sense even from 100 million kilometers away.”His thoughts on entrepreneurship: “You need to be not bad at many things. Everything is holistic.” “If you don't work for your dreams, you work for someone else's.”Fred Jordan is an Experienced Chief Executive Officer with a demonstrated history of successful and profitable businesses. Skilled in Innovation, Computer Science, Artificial Intelligence, Programming, Marketing, Management and Entrepreneurship. Scientific education with M.Sc. in physics and Ph.D. in signal processing.Co-founder of:- AlpVision: Supplier of technologies and smartphone solutions for automatic detection of genuine and fake products.- FinalSpark: Startup using biological neural networks for the design of Artificial General Intelligence.Dr. Fred Jordan started their journey in technology entrepreneurship after completing his PhDs at EPFL in applied mathematics. This work gave them the inspiration for their first successful start-up, AlpVision, where they excelled at overcoming engineering challenges and created an innovative solution for product authentication. The company became very profitable and is still successfully run by them.This brought the co-founders Fred and Martin to a new, even bigger challenge, to address the problem of Artificial General Intelligence. Creating a ‘Thinking Machine' is a dream of many engineers. A machine which can reason as a human being is considered by many as a peak performance to be achieved in engineering.Although we currently observe the flourishing of the AI models which make impression of being ableto think, as they successfully ‘fake' human thinking with advanced statistics, this has nothing to do withhuman reasoning which is capable of creating new ideas and concepts outside its own experience. Thisis what a ‘real' thinking machine should do as well.Fred and Martin decided to address this problem by testing the state-of-the-art methods in AI models, such as in silico spiking neural networks, genetic programming and many versions of in silico neural networks.Multidisciplinary thinking and the interest to explore unknown areas lead Fred and Martin to work on living neurons as computation units. They established FinalSpark lab which is currently running fundamental research with one main question: How to make living neurons perform intended computations?How to send instructions to the living neurons using electric wires and receive results – the same wayas we send the instructions by typing on our keyboard and receive the answers from in silico computerson our screens.Fred Jordan can be reached at https://www.linkedin.com/in/fred-jordan-anticounterfeiting-brandprotection-authentication/

The Muses of Greek mythology were nine goddesses associated with the arts, sciences, and memory.They were the source of inspiration for artists, thinkers, poets, dancers, musicians, and philosophers. They were the goddesses of knowledge, embodying the wisdom and creative power found in poetry, songs, and myths.This is the point: a muse is never an actual woman.When a man chooses a flesh-and-blood woman to be his muse, she becomes the symbol of something deeper, wiser, and much more mysterious than herself.A muse is a point of access that puts a man in touch with his feminine side while allowing him to pretend that he does not have a feminine side.A muse is essentially the Jungian anima, the perfect woman who exists only in the imagination of a man.Just now, my muse whispered to me,“The reader will want to ask you, ‘What is a woman's muse?'”“What shall I tell them?”“Tell them to ask a woman,” she said.In his book, The Magic Synthesis, Silvano Arieti writes,“Creative products are always shiny and new; the creative process is ancient and unchanging.”Arieti believed that perception is not just binary, with logic on the left side and pattern recognition on the right. He believed that our minds can blend rational with irrational, sophisticated with primitive, conscious with subconscious to create a third type of perception known as “creativity.”Psychology Today begins their praise of Arieti with this paragraph:“Silvano Arieti's book Interpretation of Schizophrenia was awarded the 1975 U.S. National Book Award in the Science category. More than 40 years later, it remains the most significant contribution to the psychological understanding of schizophrenia since Kraepelin and Bleuler. Contemporary psychiatrists and psychotherapists would be wise to review Arieti's vast contributions to the field.”Silvano Arieti was born in 1914. When he died in 1981, Arieti was perhaps the world's foremost authority on schizophrenia. He wrote an award-winning book about it.The other book he wrote was about creativity.Coincidence? Perhaps. But I am convinced that creativity is a mild form of schizophrenia. How else would you describe a marvelous blend of rational with irrational, sophisticated with primitive, conscious with subconscious?Creativity is a wild and spontaneous act employed by artists, thinkers, poets, dancers, musicians, and philosophers. It is that conflicted insanity to which our Muses give us access.I think that “mild schizophrenia” is the perfect description.But perhaps I am wrong.Roy H.

When he died in 1981, Arieti was perhaps the world's foremost authority on schizophrenia. He wrote an award-winning book about it.The other book he wrote was about creativity.Coincidence? Perhaps. But I am convinced that creativity is a mild form of schizophrenia. How else would you describe a marvelous blend of rational with irrational, sophisticated with primitive, conscious with subconscious?Creativity is a wild and spontaneous act employed by artists, thinkers, poets, dancers, musicians, and philosophers. It is that conflicted insanity to which our Muses give us access.I think that “mild schizophrenia” is the perfect description.But perhaps I am wrong.Roy H.

Daniel and Wilbur return to the SHACK to find an oddly placed dog treat by the back door. Looking on the back of the treat it reads "this is a wildlife vaccine, please do not touch." Ok it's time to end this nonsense. How long do we let things like this go on before there are no deer left to hunt, no rabbits left to trap, no fish left to fish?? Before you know it, they're going to start grinding up dead cows and feeding them to cows. OH WAIT! That's already happening, and we are seeing a rise in madcow disease. Coincidence? Here at the SHACK, we don't believe in coincidence. We believe in the truth!

2025 is shaping up to be the Year of Stephen King, with three films and one TV series adaptations of his work on offer for rabid fans. This week, Earth's Mightiest Critics look at Mike Flanagan's The Life of Chuck, a very different kind of King movie--inspired by a very different kind of King short story!Chuck Krantz (Tom Hiddleston) is an accountant whose imminent retirement is advertised on billboards all over town. Most residents are too busy worrying about rampant Internet outages, colossal natural disasters, and mysterious sinkholes to notice. But soon, Chuck's likeness becomes impossible to escape. How does this relate to dancing? And why are people calling this bizarre, end-of-the-world scenario an uplifting film?The answers are as tricky as The Life of Chuck's asynchronous structure.

Fresh off The Amazing Spider-Man sequel, Andrew Garfield wanted to star in something different, and he chose an indie film that criticizes the Hollywood lifestyle. Coincidence? Maybe, maybe not. This was the third film for David Robert Mitchell, director of the critically-acclaimed horror film It Follows. Under the Silver Lake follows an aimless millennial slacker named Sam who believes there's a gigantic conspiracy going on in Los Angeles, and the general populace is ignorant to it. The disappearance of a female neighbor named Sarah (portrayed by Riley Keough) sparks his urge to explore the deep seedy depths of the City of Angels. What will Sam find in this Hitchock-inspired suspense-thriller?

War Room Coincidence? Just As Big Beautiful Bill Loses Momentum LA Riots Gives It The Fuel It Needs to Pass
On this episode of The Chad & Cheese Podcast, it's birthday hangovers, five liters of port, and one big "healthy budget" middle finger from Indeed. Maureen “Mo” Clough is back and just in time to witness Chris Hyams “decide” to leave his CEO chair... right before his old boss waltzes in and takes it. Coincidence? LOL.
Sarah got mixed up in a felony and for a second was going to take matters into her own hands and try to apprehend the bandit because she "loves justice." Thankfully she realized Ann Taylor Loft's Loss Prevention isn't worth fighting for. Scientists turned a spider web red, and while we want to be excited we can't figure out why we should care. We discuss our least favorite creatures and we realize Susie's hatred of stink bugs is the insect equivalent of Sarah's fear of things that scurry. We learn the connection between golf courses and a neurological disease. Sarah watched a short film about people who dress up in crane costumes and dance to help the species, and she loves it so much, but Susie can't get past the documentary's name. But the real magic happened at the end of the show when Susie found out the Cheers' actor George Wendt died, and we lose our minds about the crazy coincidence of her finding out today.Listen to more podcasts like this: https://wavepodcastnetwork.comRead this week's Newsletter: https://mailchi.mp/thebraincandypodcast/photograph-scandal-turning-point-how-to-be-happyConnect with us on social media:BCP Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/braincandypodcastSusie's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/susiemeisterSarah's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/imsarahriceBCP on X: https://www.x.com/braincandypodSponsors:For 20% off your order, head to https://www.harvesthosts.com and use code BRAINCANDYFor 15% off your order and a special gift, head to https://pacagen.com/braincandyCancel your unwanted subscriptions and reach your financial goals faster with Rocket Money.

On today’s Stinchfield, we are calling out the disgraceful, reckless behavior of Senators Richard Blumenthal, Lindsey Graham, and former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo. These men—none of whom are authorized to negotiate on behalf of the United States—waltzed into Ukraine just days before Ukraine launched a full-scale attack on Russia. Coincidence? Don’t count on it. This is not diplomacy. This is a blatant violation of the Logan Act, and worse—it’s a dangerous provocation that could drag America into a global conflict. Who the hell do these people think they are, undermining any shot at peace while playing pretend statesman in a foreign war zone? The Deep State and warmongers in BOTH parties are out of control, and today, we’re blowing the lid off it. These men should be investigated, not applauded. Tune in and hear the truth the cowards in the media won’t touch. This isn’t leadership — it’s treasonous theater.

What began as random ceramic masks nose-diving off the walls quickly turned into “selective blackouts” that plunged only the living room into darkness. Then came the windows: whistling at nothing—and, in front of a roomful of friends, every screen tore loose at the exact same second. Facing depression and raising kids solo, our storyteller wondered if her own heavy energy cracked the door open for something darker. Was it coincidence? Chaos? Or do the things that haunt us sense when we're at our weakest? If you have a real ghost story or supernatural event to report, please write into our show or call 1-855-853-4802!

437: Neal McDonough—Clear the Mechanism The perennial character actor villain turned leading man drops by to talk about the first film where he finally gets to kiss the girl at the end, The Last Rodeo—and that girl is played by his wife, Ruvé. Coincidence? Not a chance. That's the only way Neal would do it. Neal also discusses how he secured a return to Taylor Sheridan's Tulsa Kings, why he thought Sylvester Stallone might deck him on set, and the greatest career advice Clint Eastwood gave him.

Join us on Strange Planet as Dr. Bernard Beitman, a Yale-trained psychiatrist and synchronicity pioneer, unravels the universe's hidden messages. From telepathic home runs to psychedelic revelations, his journey reveals how tracking synchronicities can transform your life and even save humanity. Tune in for a mind-bending exploration that'll make you wonder: Are you listening to the universe's whispers? GUEST: Dr. Bernard Beitman, M.D., is a groundbreaking psychiatrist and the first scholar since Carl Jung to rigorously study meaningful coincidences. A Yale Medical School graduate and former psychiatry chair at the University of Missouri-Columbia, he founded The Coincidence Project and authors the Connecting with Coincidence blog for Psychology Today. His books, including the upcoming Life-Changing Synchronicities (May 2025), blend science and spirituality to help people decode synchronicity's patterns.
