This week, in Wakefield, Massachusetts, when two people are shockingly murdered, it leads detectives down a rabbit hole of mystery, with enemies, business associates, and even possible mafia connections. They end up settling on a much more personal, and nasty motive, all stemming from having fun times, at a lake house. It's a twisted story, filled with conspiracy, lies, partial truths, affairs, and maybe even some reasonable doubt! Along the way, we find out that no one loves mechanical bulls more than Italian people, that even spending time at a lake house can come with some stress, and that you can't lie to everyone, all the time, and get away with it!!

Comedian Steph Tolev joins Adam in the studio to discuss her new Netflix special Filth Queen, the mental toll of online trolls, and unhinged social media comments. They dive into the pressure comedians face over appearances, from nose jobs to iconic stand-up outfits. Steph talks about her podcast tour, a touching letter her dad received, and how her mother wanted her to run their highland dance studio. Plus, she and Adam rant about dumb commercial tropes, Adam pitches a new product idea, they vent about oddly spelled names, and weigh in on the viral clip of Theo Von allegedly shoving a fan.Later, author and commentator Michael Malice calls in to talk about his new book, Not Sick of Winning: A History of President Trump's First 100 Days, and the strange trend of liberal men crossing their legs “like women.” He and Adam dissect the manipulation of language in political discourse, revisit Trump's controversial “China virus” comment, and engage in a thought experiment on the difference between builders and talkers. They also discuss what it would actually take to fix California—and whether New York's new mayor, Zohran Mamdani, is part of the problem or the solution.In the news, comedian Rudy Pavich stops by to break down some wild headlines. First up, The Simpsons shocks fans by killing off Marge in the Season 36 finale, prompting Adam to reflect on his voice work as Death on Family Guy. Then, they react to Florida's controversial plan to detain migrants in a new Everglades facility dubbed “Alligator Alcatraz”—a low-cost, high-risk detention center surrounded by dangerous wildlife. Finally, they unpack the bizarre saga of disgraced influencer “Liver King,” who was arrested in Texas after posting unhinged videos and challenging Joe Rogan to a fight.Get it on.FOR MORE WITH STEPH TOLEV:INSTAGRAM & TWITTER: @stephtolevNETFLIX SPECIAL: Filth QueenFOR MORE WITH RUDY PAVICH:INSTAGRAM: @rudy_pavichWEBSITE: www.rudypavichcomedy.comFOR MORE WITH MICHAEL MALICE:INSTAGRAM & TWITTER: @michaelmaliceBOOK: Not Sick Of Winning: A History of President Trumps First 100 DaysThank you for supporting our sponsors:BetOnlinetry.drinkbrez.com/CAROLLA/ and use code CAROLLA for a $5 credit and free shipping on your first orderListen to Cocaine Air wherever you get your podcastsHomes.comPluto.tvSIMPLISAFE.COM/ADAMLIVE SHOWS: July 10 - Irvine, CA (Live Podcast)July 11-12 - Covina, CA (4 shows)July 17 - Plymouth, WIJuly 19 - Plymouth, WISee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Today's Real Story is how so many on the left would rather see Trump fail than prevent a terrorist regime from starting a nuclear war. These so-called journalists are rooting for mission failure and against a ceasefire just to prove Trump wrong. One bumbling analyst even argued that Iranians don't really mean it when they say “Death to America.”

When Ty'Rique Riley died after a brief stay in the Dauphin County Prison, his family blamed guards who beat and pepper sprayed him with a bag over his head. But the county coroner, best known for his embellished true crime TV show, declared the 29-year-old's death a routine medical incident. It was just the latest in a string of inmate deaths at the jail for which neither guards nor medical staff had been held accountable. As investigative journalists turned up the heat on county officials, outsiders ran for elective office with promises of reform. Both met stiff resistance from a system built on protecting a brutal status-quo.From Wondery and Penn Live comes the podcast “Death County, PA.” Host Josh Vaughn recounts his multi-year investigation into the prison and those who ran it with an iron hand. It also profiles the unlikely citizens who campaigned to change conditions inside the state's most notorious corrections facility.OUR SPOILER-FREE REVIEWS OF "DEATH COUNTY, PA" BEGIN IN THE FINAL 12 MINUTES OF THE EPISODE.

A homeowner in Kellogg, Minnesota frantically called 911 earlier this month, saying a stranger with brutal injuries was in their driveway. Despite suffering from a broken jaw and missing several teeth, Melissa Hunt was able to tell police that her ex-boyfriend, Craig Hameister, had attacked her. She died just hours later at the hospital. When police located Hameister, he picked an unusual way to try to escape.

On edge, teetering on the precipice of oblivionUnaware of its grip on my heart.This heart, clenched. These guts, a slithering knot. My presence in this moment; Impossible.The venomous edge stalks like a desperate lover. Full of blame, attack, defiance, rage…He's a gaslighting lover.Insisting my existence is at risk while this body swallows freshly cooked organic food in my cozy condo…He pretends not to be here. Invisibility clever, Void of reflection, Death without renewal.Insisting I am separate from the tribe, From the tribe of humans…Better than, smarter than, Wiser, kinder, gentler…A poisonous muse.Words flew with vigor from my fingertipsCharged with venomRipping open the fear in my soul Spilling blame on those closest to me…For who else can withhold the sustenance I need?I'm on edge.But with eyes open, With heart open,I reluctantly acknowledge This reality is not mine alone.We are ALL on edge.Who in this moment has not been abandoned by their people? Rainbow lovers eating their own, A country no longer protected by law, Workers unable to breath free, Elders forgotten and discarded, Children entering a planet on fire.Today, I will not add more faggots to fuel of the pyre of fear and serperatrion,With embarrassed reluctance, I reach out. Acknowledge the shared pain.I bow to my ancestors, Placed in front of me through the prayers of chosen family.Thank you, father.Thank you, Bill Gerle. “If it's not about love and kindness, it's not a conversation worth having.”I just want to cry. The tears have been many,So many, Each one a blessing. Allowing me to fall apart in the fertile strength of known wisdom.Only love. Only love.

AI-powered competitive intel is the new snake oil, and executives are buying it by the gallon. While everyone's obsessing over ChatGPT doing their research in 20 minutes, they're missing the point entirely—your buying champions don't need a 30-page report about why your competitors suck.

The sudden death Tamaki Makaurau MP, Takutai Tarsh Kemp has devastated her family, friends, community and she is being mourned across the political arena. Friend and Te Pati Maori president John Tamihere spoke to Ingrid Hipkiss.
I had such a great conversation with Tripp Lanier, who has this gift for cutting through all the self-help nonsense with refreshing honesty. We got into the whole armoring thing that men do—you know, that exhausting performance where we pretend we've got everything figured out while secretly running from anything that might actually challenge us. Tripp's journey perfectly illustrates how we convince ourselves we can hack our way out of life's uncomfortable realities, only to discover that the escape hatch we're desperately seeking doesn't actually exist. What I loved about our chat was his insight into authentic men's work—the difference between advice-giving (which nobody wants) and the art of asking questions that help guys discover their own truths. We talked about responsibility, power, and why so many successful men are secretly miserable despite checking all the cultural boxes. Tripp's perspective on growing up versus just getting older really hit home, especially his point about how we keep looking for the next guru or system to save us from having to actually feel our feelings. The whole conversation kept circling back to this central question: what if we stopped running from the very things that could transform us?Website
In the Pits of Kalayavan you either fight or you die. Each match a chance to prove yourself a warrior of the realms. Some do it by choice, some do it to pay a debt. Yet each fight is a chance to see another sunrise. It is in these pits where a young man, cast away to pay a debt by his own family would find the strength to endure and become known as the Knight of Roses.

We begin this week with an especially terrifying creature from Indonesia known as the Pontianak . Dan will share the lore of the Pontianak and then a handful of supposed modern encounters with this vengeful, angry, female, vampiric spirit. Next, Dan shares Ontario, Canada's Baldoon Mystery. A good ol' fashioned poltergeist story with a very strange twist from the 19th century. For stories three and four, Lynze brings us a ouija board double whammy, unintentionally. Her first story is one we can all relate to at the start as we begin by sleeping in the basement. Then, a family has a bizarre connection to Charles Manson and he brings some paranormal horror to their lives! Scared To Death Merch: Exciting new merch is up in the store!

Glenn Beck Special- Iran War & US Riots: An Urgent WARNING About the ‘Death to America' Mob Iran War & US Riots: An Urgent WARNING About the ‘Death to America' Mob | Glenn TV Is the world approaching its FINAL battle? From the anti-ICE rioters to Islamic governments like Iran, the message is the same: “Death to the West… death to America.” Glenn Beck gives an urgent warning about the radical ideologies threatening Western civilization and likens the chaos in American streets to Gotham. Asra Nomani, an expert on Islamic extremism, terrorism, and radicalization, joins Glenn to detail what she saw at a No Kings protest in Philadelphia. Nomani warns that “more blood will spill” due to the dangerous nexus between Democratic organizations, Islamic sympathizers, Marxists, communists, and socialists. “This is the tyranny that will come to your neighborhoods and streets unless we stop it.” Another issue dividing the country and President Trump's MAGA supporters is the war between Israel and Iran. Should the U.S. help destroy Iran's nuclear ambitions or let Israel go it alone? Iranian American journalist Nik Kowsar was arrested and threatened with death for his political cartoon critical of an Islamic cleric in 2003. He reveals the truth about the Islamic regime but tells Glenn why he believes bombs won't bring democracy to the oppressed people of Iran.

[00:30] Iran Unchanged (50 minutes) The debate over how much damage the U.S. strikes on Iran caused rages on, but what is certain is that the radical Islamists are still in control. This morning, Iranians were back to chanting “Death to America.” Perhaps the strikes carried out by Israel and America have set the Iran nuclear program back a couple months, or years, but with the same radicals in charge, it won't take much time for Iran to be back where it was prior to the 12-day war. Following the strikes, President Trump has shown that he's eager to get back to working with Iran and wants to avoid war at all costs. However, as one Israeli official recently reminded the West, just 80 years ago, trying to avoid a war led to the worst war in human history. [51:00] Celtic Throne Feedback (4 minutes)
Send Kris and Rob a Text Message!In Part Two of The Scarsdale Diet Murder, we pick up where the gunshots left off. Dr. Herman Tarnower—the cardiologist behind The Scarsdale Diet—was dead, and his longtime lover Jean Harris was in handcuffs. But the real battle had just begun.What followed was a 14-week media-frenzied trial, filled with courtroom theatrics, handwritten, ten page love letters, prescription drugs, and a defense that teetered between suicide attempt and emotional collapse. Prosecutors painted Jean as a jealous, calculating killer. The defense claimed she was a broken woman, unraveling under years of psychological manipulation and amphetamines prescribed by the man she ultimately shot.The jury didn't buy it.Jean Harris was found guilty of second-degree murder and sentenced to 15 years to life. She would go on to serve 12 years behind bars before then-New York Governor Mario Cuomo commuted her sentence at age 69.In this episode, we break down the trial, the aftermath, and the transformation of Jean Harris—from prep school headmistress to convicted murderer to prison reform advocate.sources used for this podcastSupport the showJOIN THE HITCHED 2 HOMICIDE IN-LAWS AND OUTLAWSSTART KRIS CALVERT'S BOOKS TODAY FOR FREEH2H WEBSITEH2H on TWITTERH2H on INSTA
