THE 27 CLUB The 27 Club is a popular culture phenomenon and urban legend referring to the unusual number of influential musicians, artists, and actors who have died at the age of 27, often due to drug or alcohol abuse, suicide, or accidents.  While scientific studies have debunked the idea of a statistical spike in musician deaths at this specific age, the perceived coincidence continues to capture public fascination. The myth gained prominence in the early 1970s with the deaths of several rock icons in a short period, and the narrative was reinforced after Kurt Cobain's death in 1994 and Amy Winehouse's in 2011.  Notable Members The most prominent figures associated with the 27 Club include: Robert Johnson (d. 1938): A pioneering Delta blues musician, he is considered the "first" member of the club and is part of the legend that he sold his soul to the devil for musical prowess. Brian Jones (d. 1969): The founding member and original leader of The Rolling Stones, he drowned in his swimming pool after consuming alcohol and drugs. Jimi Hendrix (d. 1970): The innovative and highly influential rock guitarist who died of a drug overdose involving barbiturates. Janis Joplin (d. 1970): A powerful blues and rock singer, she died of a heroin overdose in her hotel room. Jim Morrison (d. 1971): The enigmatic lead singer of The Doors, whose cause of death in Paris was officially ruled as heart failure, though drug use was suspected. Kurt Cobain (d. 1994): The frontman of the grunge band Nirvana, he died by a self-inflicted gunshot wound, with a high concentration of heroin in his system. Amy Winehouse (d. 2011): The British singer-songwriter known for her soulful voice, she died of accidental alcohol poisoning.  Other artists and actors sometimes included in the broader list are artist Jean-Michel Basquiat, Grateful Dead keyboardist Ron "Pigpen" McKernan, and actor Anton Yelchin.  Cultural Impact vs. Statistical Reality The enduring nature of the 27 Club is less about a true statistical anomaly and more about the power of storytelling and media reinforcement. The concentration of several highly famous deaths at the same age within a short timeframe (1969-1971) created a powerful narrative that stuck in the public consciousness.  While one study published in the British Medical Journal in 2011 found that young adult musicians have a higher death rate overall than the general population, it concluded there was no specific increased risk at age 27 compared to other young ages. However, the myth itself has led to increased visibility and cultural prominence for those who die at that age, perpetuating the idea.

Today we're talking about something a lot of conservatives don't want to admit yet: MAGA, as we knew it, is over. Donald Trump failed his base past the point of no return. In this episode, I break down why. Including his refusal to release the Epstein list, his repeated support for foreign nations over the American people, and his insistence on importing more H-1B workers from India, which undercuts American jobs and suppresses American wages. This movement was supposed to be America First. Somewhere along the way, the “First” quietly disappeared. Let's talk about why that happened, and where we go from here.

Buckley led a small band of little-known conservatives to the peaks of political power and cultural influence.Ten years before his death, Buckley chose journalist and historian Sam Tanenhaus to tell the full story of his life, granting him extensive uncensored interviews and exclusive access to his most private papers.

6. Logan's Murder and Jefferson's Defense of America Professor Robert G. Parkinson, Heart of American Darkness: Bewilderment and Horror on the Early Frontier This section explores the fate of Logan and the cultural impact of his lament. A surveyor learned that Logan was murdered by his nephew, Todkahtos, around 1780 near Lake Erie. Logan was silenced because the Six Nations feared the powerful orator was too persuasive and unpredictable in the volatile Ohio country. The discussion pivots to Thomas Jefferson, who obtained the lament and featured it in his Notes on the State of Virginia. Jefferson used Logan's eloquence to counter the French naturalist Buffon's theory that everything in America was inferior and degenerate, aiming to prove American intellectual superiority in the Enlightenment.

Bad Bunny is front and center in global news this week, making history as the first male Latin American artist to headline the Super Bowl halftime show in 2026. The NFL's announcement last month set off a frenzy, with experts from Temple University highlighting that his performance—planned mostly in Spanish at Levi's Stadium in California—will mark a powerful cultural moment for both Latin American and U.S. audiences. According to Temple Now, Bad Bunny's Super Bowl halftime will serve as both a “visual and musical love letter to Puerto Rico and Latinidad,” expected to spotlight Puerto Rican identity, resilience, and contemporary issues like colonialism, gentrification, and economic disparities. Many anticipate that he might share the stage with other major Puerto Rican voices such as Ivy Queen or Marc Anthony.His recent residency in Puerto Rico also broke records, generating over $733 million for the island's economy and achieving the most-watched livestream ever on Amazon Music, based on reporting from the Associated Press and Amazon Prime Video. This record-breaking residency is linked to a multiyear partnership with Amazon, combining entertainment with social impact initiatives for Puerto Rican education, disaster relief, and economic empowerment. These cultural efforts have further solidified his influence not just musically, but socially and academically, with classes dedicated to his work emerging at major universities and a forthcoming book titled “How Bad Bunny Became the Global Voice of Puerto Rican Resistance” set for release in early 2026.Bad Bunny has also been creating buzz with his new music. On the heels of his successful "Most Wanted Tour," which grossed over $210 million and ranked seventh among the biggest tours of 2024, he announced that his new album “Debí Tirar Más Fotos” (“I Should Have Taken More Photos”) will drop on January 5, 2025. This sixth studio album was introduced via a poignant video teaser that featured acclaimed Puerto Rican filmmaker Jacobo Morales in conversation with an animated character, delving into themes of nostalgia and the importance of living in the moment. The holiday single “Pitorro de Coco,” named after a traditional Puerto Rican rum, and another track “El Clúb,” each explore heartbreak and memories of past love—showing a deeper introspective turn in Bad Bunny's music, as covered by outlets like The Lagos Review and NME.His recent songs—and the album as a whole—have been described as a love letter to Puerto Rico, recorded entirely on the island with local musicians. Visual elements of his latest work, created in partnership with historian Jorell Meléndez-Badillo, span key moments in Puerto Rican history from the 16th century to today. These include references to the Grito de Lares uprising, the Ponce massacre, and debates around U.S. colonialism, bringing history into popular music in a way that's reaching a new generation of listeners.Listeners are also keeping an eye out for Bad Bunny's unexpected moves in other areas of entertainment. He recently appeared in the trailer for Adam Sandler's “Happy Gilmore 2,” hinting at further Hollywood ambitions.Thank you for tuning in.

Whitney's journey is a very inspiring one, where she grew up in Guam before her family moved to the United States while she was in high school, when she was struck by the low level of cultural awareness in the United States.

The cases of Jeffrey Epstein, R. Kelly, and Sean "Diddy" Combs, while involving different individuals, share several thematic similarities that center around allegations of sexual misconduct, abuse of power, and exploitation. Below is a comparison based on these common factors:1. Allegations of Sexual Abuse and MisconductJeffrey Epstein: Epstein was charged with running a sex trafficking ring that exploited underage girls, some as young as 14. He used his wealth and influence to recruit vulnerable minors for sexual exploitation over many years.R. Kelly: The R&B singer was convicted of racketeering and sex trafficking, including charges of sexually abusing minors. He operated a scheme where young women and underage girls were lured into abusive situations, often under false pretenses of career opportunities.Sean "Diddy" Combs: Combs is facing a lawsuit accusing him of sexual assault, battery, and abuse over an extended period. The case includes claims that he exploited his influence and power in the entertainment industry to manipulate and control women, though his case lacks the widespread scope of trafficking networks seen in Epstein and R. Kelly's cases.2. Exploitation of Power and InfluenceEpstein: A financier with connections to high-profile political and business elites, Epstein used his wealth, private islands, and powerful network to hide and perpetuate his crimes for years. His connections gave him a shield from scrutiny until his arrest and subsequent death in 2019.R. Kelly: Kelly leveraged his fame and success in the music industry to recruit victims, often promising to mentor them or help their careers. He maintained control over these women through psychological, emotional, and sometimes physical abuse.Combs: As a music mogul and media figure, Combs had considerable influence in the industry, which his accusers claim he used to exploit and manipulate victims. His power dynamic is similar to Kelly's in terms of being a gatekeeper for opportunities in entertainment, making it harder for accusers to speak out without fearing career consequences.3. Systematic Abuse and ControlEpstein: The Epstein case revealed a systematic approach to exploiting young girls, involving an intricate network of recruiters, enablers, and blackmail material used to silence victims. His case exposed a broad system of grooming, blackmail, and exploitation.R. Kelly: Kelly was accused of running an organized, cult-like system where he isolated women, controlled every aspect of their lives, and manipulated them through threats and abuse. His use of enablers to maintain control over his victims parallels Epstein's methods.Combs: While the extent of systematic abuse in Combs' case is still unfolding, the accusations point to a long-term pattern of controlling behavior, manipulation, and sexual misconduct.4. Public Perception and Legal OutcomesEpstein: Epstein's case sparked global outrage, especially after his death in jail under suspicious circumstances, which many believe was tied to the influential figures he associated with. His death left many questions unanswered and led to ongoing legal actions against his associates.R. Kelly: Kelly was convicted and sentenced to 30 years in prison after decades of allegations. His case was marked by long-standing public scrutiny, especially after the "Surviving R. Kelly" documentary brought renewed attention to his abuses.Combs: The legal proceedings against Combs are more recent, and his case is still developing. While he denies the allegations, the case has ignited discussions around abuse in the music industry similar to what followed Kelly's trial.5. Cultural Impact and Public DiscourseAll three cases highlight the abuse of power by wealthy and influential men in positions of authority. Epstein and R. Kelly's cases became focal points for larger conversations around sexual trafficking, abuse in the entertainment industry, and the legal system's failures to protect vulnerable individuals.Combs' case, still in its early stages, may follow a similar trajectory, as more details emerge and public discourse continues around abuse in the music industry.In summary, the similarities between these cases lie in the alleged exploitation of power and influence, systematic abuse, and the use of enablers or networks to perpetuate crimes over extended periods. Each case reveals broader societal issues around accountability, celebrity culture, and the treatment of victims in the justice system.(commercial at 8:55to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Sean Combs' Case Compared to R. Kelly, Jeffrey Epstein: 'Diddy Is Screwed' - NewsweekThe Metropolitan Detention Center (MDC) in Brooklyn has a notorious history of poor conditions and systemic issues. Over the years, it has faced numerous scandals, particularly involving staffing shortages, violence, and substandard living conditions. Inmates have reported being locked down for over 22 hours a day, with little access to showers, phone calls, or exercise. The facility often experiences long-term lockdowns due to violent incidents, such as a murder in June 2024. The chronic understaffing exacerbates these problems, with correctional officers frequently overworked and unable to adequately manage the facility.Judges have become increasingly critical of the conditions at MDC. In recent rulings, federal judges have even refused to send defendants to the facility, citing "barbaric" conditions that border on cruel and unusual punishment. One judge described the jail as being in a state of "near-perpetual lockdown" due to staffing shortages and widespread contraband, including drugs and weapons.Despite promises from the Bureau of Prisons to address these issues, improvements have been minimal, and MDC remains a symbol of the challenges facing federal detention centers,This is the place that Diddy will now call home for the forseeable future.   (commercial at 10:49)to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmaill.comsource:Sean Combs' new home — a notorious federal jail — has a ‘way of breaking people,' lawyers say (nbcnews.com)Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.

This week, guest pastor, Ben Stuart, continued our sermon series on The Fifth Act by preaching on Acts 19 and the impact of Paul's ministry in Ephesus.

Pastor Ben encouraged us to release idols we cling to for comfort and control through confession and repentance, and allow our delight in God to transform our lives and impact the world around us.

Hulk Hogan died recently. He's been denounced by some, praised by others. On his impact on the sport, pro wrestling historian Brian Soloman remarked on his passing "Wrestling history is divided in two parts: Before Hulk Hogan, and after Hulk Hogan…He was larger than life, inspired millions of people, many of whom spent decades being gradually let down by him.” But, also, some contend, his influence on our current cultural and political moment is significant as well. Generations are influenced by his muscles and swagger, he introduced Trump at last year's Republican National Convention and his personal political actions are also worth noting. In our latest, we talk with our friend and comrade, and host of This is Revolution, Jason Myles about Hogan's importance.Bio//Jason Myles is a writer, musician and co-host of This is Revolution Podcast. ------------------------------------------Outro- Green and Red Blues by Moody
