For thirteen months before his trial, Richard Allen lived in a solitary cell at Westville Correctional Facility, and on September 21, 2026, the State of Indiana defended that cell at the Indiana Court of Appeals. How the state's lawyer characterized it is the thread through this complete breakdown with defense attorney Bob Motta.Allen is serving 130 years for the 2017 Delphi murders of Abby Williams and Libby German. His appeal, argued by Mark Leeman, rests on three claims.First, that the confessions he made in that cell came from a mind the state broke. Second, that the jury was blocked from hearing about another suspect and the sketch an eyewitness helped draw. Third, that the search warrant for his home rested on a false account of what witnesses said.The state's answers came from Deputy Attorney General Ellen Meilaender. Restrictive housing is ordinary custody, she argued, and Allen was there for his own safety; only five of his confessions fall inside his psychosis. Brad Holder, investigated in 2017 and never charged, was clocked in at a landfill 25 miles away. And Allen's own 2017 statement placing himself on the trail supplied probable cause and remains the most powerful evidence against him, she said.Bob and I go through the clips in order: the psychiatrist's April 14 finding and the forced medication, then the hand tattoo and the posts the jury never saw. After that come the unfired cartridge, the astrology comparison, and the sketch Judge Frances Gull kept out. Along the way Bob explains the burden of proof on a confession, the direct-connection rule, and harmless error.The judges took the case under advisement and will issue a written decision. The losing side can petition the Indiana Supreme Court.Listen Anywhere You Get Podcasts: https://pod.link/1655749292Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Thirteen months in a cell at Westville, lights on around the clock, a camera watching, and a guard outside the door writing down everything Richard Allen said. On September 21, 2026, the State of Indiana defended every day of it to the Indiana Court of Appeals, and what its lawyer called those conditions is the thread running through this full breakdown with defense attorney Bob Motta.The Delphi murders conviction stands on statements Allen made inside that unit in April and May 2023, 61 of them by the state's count, to his wife, his mother, guards, a warden, and the psychologist treating him. Appeal lawyer Mark Leeman argued they came from a man the prison's own psychiatrist had found on the floor covered in filth and declared gravely disabled. The state argued Allen was in restrictive housing because a county jail could not keep him safe, that the conditions were ordinary custody, and that the confessions that matter came when he was lucid.From there the hearing went to the man the jury never heard about. Brad Holder, investigated in 2017 and never charged, has a hand tattoo Leeman says matches the sticks laid on Abby Williams, and social media posts the defense wanted jurors to see. The state's answer was a landfill time card placing him 25 miles away.Then the bullet and the face. A single unfired cartridge was matched to Allen's pistol by a method the defense calls junk science. The sketch Betsy Blair helped draw of the man she saw on the bridge never reached the jury, because Judge Frances Gull kept it out.Bob and I go through every clip and every rule underneath it, from the burden of proof on a confession to what harmless error would mean for a man serving 130 years for killing Abby Williams and Libby German.The panel has the case under advisement.Listen Anywhere You Get Podcasts: https://pod.link/1655749292Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Defense attorney Bob Motta and I sit down with the full Indiana Court of Appeals hearing on Richard Allen's Delphi murders conviction, argued September 21, 2026, and we play the clips that decide it.The center of the appeal is a cell. Allen was moved to Westville Correctional Facility under a safekeeping order in November 2022 and spent thirteen months in a segregation unit before his trial. The confessions the jury heard, 61 by the state's count, all came from that unit in the spring of 2023.Mark Leeman, arguing for Allen, told the judges the state took a pretrial detainee straight to the hole, watched him descend into psychosis, and used what he said there. Deputy Attorney General Ellen Meilaender told the same judges that Allen could not survive general population and that the unit's conditions were ordinary. A replacement tablet, a new window, and visits from his wife, she argued, show he was treated better than other inmates.We also cover the two fights that could matter as much as the confessions. The first is Brad Holder, a man state police investigated in 2017 and never charged. The defense says his hand tattoo and social media posts point to a ritual staging of the scene; the state says he was at work 25 miles away. The second is what's left without any confession at all: an unfired cartridge, an excluded eyewitness sketch, and Allen's own 2017 statement to a conservation officer that he was on the trail.Bob takes each rule apart in plain English: voluntariness and who has to prove it, the direct-connection test for another suspect, and harmless error.Richard Allen is serving 130 years for the murders of Abby Williams and Libby German. Three judges are deciding whether he gets a new trial.Listen Anywhere You Get Podcasts: https://pod.link/1655749292Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

The full Delphi murders appeal hearing, argued September 21, 2026, in the Supreme Court courtroom at the Indiana Statehouse, broken down clip by clip with defense attorney Bob Motta. Judges Nancy Vaidik, Elaine Brown, and Robert Altice gave each side 30 minutes and then some. What the state's lawyer called Richard Allen's thirteen months at Westville is the line that frames everything else.Mark Leeman opened for Allen by calling the proceedings unprecedented, unfair, and unconstitutional: a pretrial detainee taken straight to the hole, kept there as he lost his mind, and convicted on what he said there. Deputy Attorney General Ellen Meilaender answered that the conditions were ordinary, the placement was for Allen's safety after the sheriff said his jail couldn't protect him, and the confessions that matter were lucid.We start with the April 14, 2023 psychiatric finding and the forced Haldol, along with the 30-day rule for seriously mentally ill inmates and the state's argument that it never applied. Then Brad Holder, the never-charged man whose hand rune the defense says matches the sticks on Abby Williams, against the landfill time card the state relies on. The last stretch is the unfired cartridge, the excluded metallurgist, the second police sketch Betsy Blair helped draw that the jury never saw, and the search warrant fight the state says Allen's own 2017 statement settles.Bob walks through each legal test the judges will apply, including harmless error, which is how a court leaves a conviction standing even after finding a mistake.Allen is serving 130 years for killing Abby Williams and Libby German. The panel has not ruled, and either side can seek review at the Indiana Supreme Court afterward.Listen Anywhere You Get Podcasts: https://pod.link/1655749292Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Frozen shoulder (also known as adhesive capsulitis) can cause pain, stiffness and a significant loss of shoulder range of motion. In this episode, biomechanist Katy Bowman and biologist Dr Jeannette Loram explain what's actually happening inside the shoulder capsule during frozen shoulder. They discuss the different stages of the condition — including the freezing, frozen and thawing phases — as well as its connections with inflammation, menopause and diabetes.They also explore why movement matters for shoulder health, and during recovery from frozen shoulder. To understand how movement can affect the shoulder capsule, it's important to distinguish between movement in the shoulder and movement of the shoulder. Katy and Jeannette also look at everyday habits that may limit capsule movement and share some practical daily movements for maintaining shoulder mobility. Plus, they answer a listener's question about using hand paddles when swimming.Enhanced Show Notes and Full Transcript00:00 Why we're talking about frozen shoulder02:45 Dynamic Collective sponsors05:05 What is frozen shoulder (adhesive capsulitis)?14:28 Frozen shoulder, inflammation, menopause & other risk factors24:37 The freezing, frozen & thawing stages — and treatment29:16 Movement as prevention: moving in the shoulder vs movement of the shoulder33:00 Daily prehab & rehab movements37:22 Why, in this case, pain might be the way through40:58 Everyday shoulder habits: bags, carrying & asymmetry43:13 Should you swim with hand paddles? — listener question sponsored by ScreenFit™51:00 Your shoulder movement diet: climbing & clambering, hanging & “paint the globe”Research Mentioned Millar, N.

Richard Allen's appeal of his Delphi murders conviction was argued on September 21, 2026, and one stretch of it was about a hand. Not Allen's. The hand belongs to Brad Holder, a man Indiana State Police investigated in 2017 who has never been charged, and what he drew on it is something the jury that convicted Allen never saw.Mark Leeman, arguing for Allen, laid it out for Judges Vaidik, Brown, and Altice. Holder was flagged by two tips in March 2017. Police cleared him on a time card from the landfill where he worked.After that, Leeman said, state police received a rune Holder had drawn on his hand and shared, and Leeman argued its shape lines up with the sticks placed on Abby Williams. He described social media posts of girls lying as if dead with sticks on them, and an officer who asked to reopen Holder's file and was told the department had already cleared him.Judge Frances Gull ruled all of it inadmissible before trial. Indiana requires a direct connection between a third party and the crime, and the state told the appeals panel that the evidence showed the opposite. Holder, by the state's account, was 25 miles away at work in Buffalo, Indiana, at every moment that mattered, and a landfill clerk said his absence would have been noticed. The state's expert saw no runes in the sticks, and the defense's own ritual expert could name no symbol.Defense attorney Bob Motta and I walk through what Leeman said the crime scene took, moved bodies, changed clothes, balanced sticks, and why he told the judges that doesn't describe a pharmacy tech on a walk. Then we take the state's answer seriously and ask whether a time card can carry that much weight.Allen is serving 130 years for killing Abby Williams and Libby German. The appeal is under advisement.Listen Anywhere You Get Podcasts: https://pod.link/1655749292Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Richard Allen's Delphi murders conviction is under review at the Indiana Court of Appeals, and the appeal hearing on September 21, 2026, opened with a psychiatrist, a cell floor, and a date: April 14, 2023.Allen, convicted in November 2024 of killing Abby Williams and Libby German on the Monon High Bridge trail, was held before trial in a segregation unit at Westville Correctional Facility for thirteen months. His appeal lawyer, Mark Leeman, told the panel that on April 14 the prison's own psychiatrist found Allen incommunicado on the floor, covered in feces, and declared him gravely disabled. That order started a course of Haldol injections he did not consent to, and it recorded that his symptoms had started on April 4.Leeman's point was about what the state did with that information. Allen's trial lawyers had filed an emergency motion nine days earlier asking to move him. Leeman says the state answered by calling the filing colorful and dramatic, and the trial judge denied it without the hearing he says the law required. That, he argued, is coercion without an interrogation: the state saw a man breaking and worked to keep him in the room where it was happening.Deputy Attorney General Ellen Meilaender argued there was no coercive state action at all. Allen was in restrictive housing because he could not be safely housed with other inmates, she said, and the conditions were ordinary. He had out-of-cell recreation, showers, commissary, medical checks, medication, and a tablet the prison replaced for free when he broke it.Defense attorney Bob Motta and I work through the three clips that frame this fight, including the state's position that only five of Allen's confessions fall inside his psychosis and the rest stand on their own.The panel has the case under advisement. The decision, whenever it comes, can be appealed to the Indiana Supreme Court.Listen Anywhere You Get Podcasts: https://pod.link/1655749292Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

The State of Indiana stood in front of three appeals judges on September 21, 2026, and said the Delphi murders conviction of Richard Allen survives even if every confession is thrown out. This segment is about what the state means by that, and what the defense says is actually left.Richard Allen is serving 130 years for killing Abby Williams and Libby German in February 2017. His appeal lawyer, Mark Leeman, told the Indiana Court of Appeals that no witness identified Allen as the man on the bridge and no DNA connects him to the girls. The physical evidence is an unfired .40-caliber cartridge found between them, which a state police examiner matched to the Sig Sauer taken from Allen's home. Leeman called that match astrology, and reminded the judges that Judge Frances Gull kept the defense's metallurgist, William Tobin, from telling the jury why the method is disputed.The eyewitness is Betsy Blair, who saw a man on the bridge's first platform from about 50 feet and helped police make a sketch. Gull ruled the sketch inadmissible hearsay. Leeman held it up in rebuttal and told the judges that if Blair didn't see his client, nothing else matters.Deputy Attorney General Ellen Meilaender's response is that the case stands without the confessions. Allen told a conservation officer in 2017 that he was on the trail that afternoon, and she argued that statement alone gave police probable cause to search his house and remains the state's strongest evidence. The defense says the search warrant affidavit twisted witness descriptions to fit Allen; the state says take out every disputed line and the warrant still stands on his own words.Defense attorney Bob Motta and I go through the bullet, the face, and the fallback, and what it would take for three judges to call any of it harmless.No ruling yet.Listen Anywhere You Get Podcasts: https://pod.link/1655749292Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Judge Elaine Brown asked the question every Richard Allen group chat has argued since the Delphi verdict. If the confessions are ruled inadmissible, what proof does the state have? That exchange, at the Indiana Court of Appeals on September 21, 2026, is where this segment starts.Mark Leeman's answer for Allen was blunt. No one identified him as the man on the bridge. There is no DNA.What the state had at trial was an unfired cartridge found in the ground between Abby Williams and Libby German, matched by a state examiner to the .40-caliber pistol from Allen's home. It also had witnesses who put a man on the trail.The defense's expert on the cartridge never testified. William Tobin, a former FBI metallurgist, was excluded by Judge Frances Gull as not a firearms examiner. Leeman told the panel Tobin would have said matching marks on a round found in a field is about as useful as astrology.One judge asked the state's lawyer if she had read the Virginia Supreme Court decision finding reversible error over this same expert. She had not.Then the sketch. Betsy Blair saw a man on the first platform about 50 feet away and helped police draw him. The jury never saw that drawing. Leeman held it up in rebuttal and told the judges that if Blair didn't see his client, the rest of the case is noise.The state's position, argued by Deputy Attorney General Ellen Meilaender, is that the case against Allen begins with Allen. He told police in 2017 that he was on the trail that afternoon, and she says that statement supplies probable cause and the strongest evidence, with or without a confession.Defense attorney Bob Motta and I walk through the clips and what harmless error means when a court decides a mistake didn't change the verdict.The panel took it under advisement.Listen Anywhere You Get Podcasts: https://pod.link/1655749292Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

On April 14, 2023, a psychiatrist who hadn't seen Richard Allen in months walked into his Westville cell. What he saw there became the opening of Allen's appeal at the Indiana Court of Appeals on September 21, 2026, and it's where Bob Motta and I start.Allen is serving 130 years for the 2017 Delphi murders of Abby Williams and Libby German. The state counted 61 incriminating statements from him in the spring of 2023, made to family, guards, a warden, other inmates, and the psychologist treating him. All of them came from a cell he'd been in since November 2022.Mark Leeman, arguing for Allen, described a man on the floor, unable to communicate, covered in his own waste, declared gravely disabled by the prison's own doctor and medicated against his will. He told the judges the state's own records fix the start of that collapse at April 4, and that the state spent the following weeks fighting to keep him where he was. His word for it was coercion, and the judges pressed him on it, because no officer ever questioned Allen.The state's lawyer answered that restrictive housing is ordinary custody and that Allen was there for his own protection. The tablet, the therapy sessions, the chaplain visits, and the commissary access, she argued, show a man treated as well as anyone at Westville. She conceded he was psychotic by mid-April and argued the confessions that matter came before and after it.Bob explains why the burden of proof on a confession sits with the state in Indiana, and what Leeman meant when he said Judge Gull got it backwards. He also gets into how three judges decide whether a man's mind was taken from him or came apart on its own.No ruling yet; the loser can seek review at the Indiana Supreme Court.Listen Anywhere You Get Podcasts: https://pod.link/1655749292Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Mark Leeman had thirty minutes at the Indiana Court of Appeals on September 21, 2026, and he spent part of it on a man who is not Richard Allen. That argument could send the Delphi murders case back for a new trial, and it starts with a tattoo.Richard Allen was convicted in November 2024 of murdering Abby Williams and Libby German and is serving 130 years. His trial lawyers wanted the jury to hear about Brad Holder, a man Indiana State Police investigated in 2017 and never charged. Judge Frances Gull said no. The reason is Indiana's rule on third-party suspects: the defense has to show a direct connection to the crime, and the state argued there wasn't one.Leeman told the panel what that rule kept out: two tips in March 2017 naming Holder as a match for Bridge Guy, and a work alibi that rested on a landfill time card. Then came a rune Holder drew on his hand and posted online, which Leeman says has the same shape as the sticks laid on Abby, alongside photos of girls posed as if dead under branches. By Leeman's account, an officer took that to his superior and asked to reopen, and was told they'd already cleared him.The state's response was a location and a clerk. Holder was at a landfill in Buffalo, Indiana, about 25 miles away, when the girls were confronted and when Libby's phone stopped moving, and a landfill employee testified that a missing driver would have been noticed. The FBI's analyst, the state added, did not see clear runes in the sticks at all.Defense attorney Bob Motta and I take the three clips apart and ask whether a time card should ever be the thing that keeps a name away from a jury.Three judges are deciding. The losing side can take it to the Indiana Supreme Court.Listen Anywhere You Get Podcasts: https://pod.link/1655749292Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Defense attorney Bob Motta joins me for the part of Richard Allen's Delphi murders appeal that everything else depends on: the cell that produced the confessions. Allen's appeal was argued at the Indiana Court of Appeals on September 21, 2026, and his lawyer opened with what the prison's own psychiatrist saw on April 14, 2023.Allen's trial lawyers filed an emergency request on April 5, 2023, to get him out of Westville, writing that his conditions were like a prisoner of war's. Nine days later, according to Mark Leeman, the state filed its response, the psychiatrist walked into the cell and found Allen unable to communicate and covered in filth, and Judge Frances Gull denied the request without a hearing. The psychiatrist's own order put the onset of the breakdown at April 4 and started forced antipsychotic injections.Leeman's argument is that this is what coercion looks like when there's no interrogation room: a state that watches a man decompensate and argues to keep him in place. The state's argument is that Westville held him because a jail could not protect a man accused of killing two girls, that the unit's conditions were ordinary, and that Indiana courts have never called ordinary custody coercion.We talk through why Indiana puts the burden on the state to prove a confession was voluntary, and why Leeman says Judge Gull flipped that burden twice in her order. The judges kept asking one question: with no detective in the room, who exactly coerced Richard Allen?Allen has been serving 130 years since December 2024 for the murders of Abby Williams and Libby German. Three appellate judges are deciding whether the statements that convicted him should ever have reached a jury.Listen Anywhere You Get Podcasts: https://pod.link/1655749292Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Defense attorney Bob Motta joins me for the part of Richard Allen's Delphi murders appeal his supporters have argued about for years and a jury never got to weigh: the Odinism theory, and the man at its center.At the Indiana Court of Appeals on September 21, 2026, Mark Leeman named Brad Holder, a man state police looked at in 2017 who has never been charged. Leeman said Holder's voice and appearance were flagged in tips that March, that police accepted a landfill time card as his alibi, and that state police later received something new.Holder, according to Leeman, had drawn a bind rune on his hand and published it, and that symbol matches the arrangement of sticks on Abby Williams. He described posts of girls posed as if dead with sticks across them. An officer asked to reopen the case, Leeman said, and his boss refused.The state says none of it belongs in front of a jury because Holder could not have been there. Deputy Attorney General Ellen Meilaender told the panel he was at work in Buffalo, Indiana, 25 miles from the trail, at 2:13 when the girls were confronted and at 2:32 when Libby German's phone went still. She added that the FBI's own analyst saw no clear runes in the sticks, and that the defense's ritual expert could not say what symbol they formed.Bob and I get into the rule that decides this, Indiana's direct-connection requirement for third-party suspects, and the question Judge Nancy Vaidik put to Leeman: was he asking three judges to reweigh evidence, or to fix an error?Allen is serving 130 years for the murders of Abby Williams and Libby German. The panel has the case under advisement, and a decision could come at any point in the months ahead.Listen Anywhere You Get Podcasts: https://pod.link/1655749292Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Defense attorney Bob Motta and I take on the part of Richard Allen's Delphi murders appeal that asks the simplest question: without the confessions, what is there?On September 21, 2026, Richard Allen's appeal lawyer told the Indiana Court of Appeals that no witness ever identified his client as the man in Libby German's video and that no DNA connects him to Abby Williams or Libby. The state did not argue otherwise. What it argued is that Allen's own words to police in 2017, placing himself on the trail and the bridge's first platform, are the most powerful evidence it has. A single unfired cartridge found between the girls, it added, ties him to the scene through his own pistol.Leeman attacked the cartridge match as junk science. William Tobin, the former FBI metallurgist Judge Frances Gull excluded, would have explained why a round found in a field can't be matched the way the state's examiner claimed, he told the panel. The state says the defense's other expert covered that ground and Tobin isn't qualified on firearms.Leeman's rebuttal was about a face. He held up the sketch Betsy Blair helped police draw of the man she saw on the bridge, a sketch the jury was never shown, and argued that Blair saw the killer and did not see Richard Allen. The state told the judges Blair identified the Bridge Guy image at trial, mostly by his clothing, and that a composite sketch is an investigative tool that can't identify or rule out a suspect.Bob explains what the judges meant every time they asked about harmless error, and why the search warrant fight came down to Allen's own 2017 statement. He also takes on what a defense attorney does with a case where the strongest witness against his client is the client.Allen is serving 130 years while the panel decides.Listen Anywhere You Get Podcasts: https://pod.link/1655749292Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Flow cytometry can find a cell population in seconds, but naming it consistently across labs is a problem still unsolved. If you've ever tried to compare cytometry data across studies, CROs, or even two scientists in the same lab, you know the frustration: everyone gates their own way, and the same cell population ends up with three different definitions. That inconsistency is quietly limiting what AI can do with biotech data. Ryan Brinkman is VP Research Director of Flow Cytometry Bioinformatics at Dotmatics and Founding Director of SOULCAP, the Standard Ontology for Unambiguous Labeling in Cytometry and Phenotyping, built after years as an academic developing automated gating tools that kept running into the same naming problem. He's joined by Brian Wile, who is the General Manager of Flow Cytometry at KCAS Bio, a CRO that feels the cost of inconsistent labeling in client projects every day. You'll get a clear picture of how flow cytometry data moves from raw signal to labeled cell population, why that last step has resisted automation, and what a shared standard could unlock for machine learning models trained on this data. Ryan and Brian break down the gap between automated gating and consistent labeling, and why agreement, not just data volume, is what AI in biotech actually needs. This episode covers the mechanics of flow cytometry, an EVE Online citizen science project that trained a gating algorithm on hundreds of millions of human-labeled plots, and why cell population names like "Treg" or "natural killer cell" don't map to one agreed set of markers. Key Takeaways Gating automation solved half the problem: computers can now draw boundaries around cell populations, but nothing proves which name belongs on the result.A citizen science project turned hundreds of thousands of EVE Online players into an unlikely training set, collecting roughly half a billion labeled plots from people with zero biology background.The same cell type, like a regulatory T cell, gets defined by entirely different marker combinations depending on the lab or CRO, and those datasets can't simply be merged later.SOULCAP is running a Delphi-style consensus process among scientists worldwide to tie every cell population name to a specific, reproducible set of markers and experiments.

The Delphi murders appeal of Richard Allen reached oral argument on September 21, 2026, and one document from Westville Correctional Facility did more work in that courtroom than any other: the psychiatrist's April 14, 2023 order.Judges Nancy Vaidik, Elaine Brown, and Robert Altice heard Mark Leeman describe what that order records. A prison psychiatrist who had not seen Allen for months came to his cell, found a man who could not communicate and had feces coming out of his mouth, and wrote that he was seriously mentally ill and gravely disabled. To medicate him by force, the doctor had to document when the symptoms began, and he put that date at April 4. Over the following months, Allen received a standard course of Haldol injections plus an emergency dose.That matters because of a rule the state wrote for itself. Indiana's Department of Correction generally keeps seriously mentally ill prisoners out of restrictive housing, and caps exceptions at 30 days. Allen was there thirteen months. The state's answer at the hearing was that he wasn't classified as seriously mentally ill until the psychosis, and that the diagnosis he received, a brief psychotic disorder, by definition lasts less than 30 days.Judge Brown asked how that squares with a man who was constantly on suicide watch. Leeman's answer was that it can't be squared.The state's broader position is that the confessions were voluntary because no one interrogated Allen and the conditions were ordinary custody. Defense attorney Bob Motta joins me to explain why the defense says a cell can coerce as surely as a detective, and what the judges' questions signal about where they may land.Allen is serving 130 years for the murders of Abby Williams and Libby German. The Court of Appeals has not ruled, and a decision can be appealed to the state's highest court.Listen Anywhere You Get Podcasts: https://pod.link/1655749292Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Anyone who follows the Delphi murders case knows the two pillars: the unspent round and Bridge Guy. On September 21, 2026, both were argued in front of the Indiana Court of Appeals, and Richard Allen's lawyer told the judges that without the confessions, that's all the state has.The round first. An unfired .40-caliber cartridge was found in the ground between Abby Williams and Libby German, and Indiana State Police examiner Melissa Oberg testified it had been cycled through Allen's Sig Sauer P226. The defense wanted William Tobin, a former FBI metallurgist, to tell the jury the science behind that match is contested. Judge Frances Gull excluded him as a witness who isn't a firearms examiner and hadn't examined the evidence.Mark Leeman's summary of Tobin's message: a casing found in the ground in the middle of nowhere is about as useful as astrology. One judge pointed out that Virginia's highest court reversed a conviction over excluding the same man; the state's lawyer wasn't familiar with the case.Then Bridge Guy. Betsy Blair, who saw a man on the first platform from about 50 feet away, helped produce the second police sketch, and the jury never saw it. Leeman held it up and told the judges Blair saw the killer and did not see Richard Allen. The state's answer is that Blair identified the Bridge Guy photo at trial, mostly from the clothing, and that composites are investigative tools that can't identify or exclude anyone.The state's real anchor is Allen's own statement to a conservation officer in 2017 that he was on the trail. Deputy Attorney General Ellen Meilaender argued it gave police probable cause and outweighs anything the defense wants suppressed.Defense attorney Bob Motta and I go through the clips and the harmless-error question that could decide this appeal.Allen is serving 130 years, and the panel has not ruled.Listen Anywhere You Get Podcasts: https://pod.link/1655749292Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

For everyone who has followed the Delphi murders case since the Franks memo, this is the segment. On September 21, 2026, Richard Allen's appeal lawyer put the Odinism theory in front of the Indiana Court of Appeals, and the state had to answer it out loud.Mark Leeman told Judges Nancy Vaidik, Elaine Brown, and Robert Altice that Brad Holder was identified in two March 2017 tips and cleared on a landfill time card. Indiana State Police later learned, Leeman said, that Holder had published a bind rune drawn on his hand.In Leeman's telling, the rune combines two symbols into a shape that matches the sticks arranged on Abby Williams, a girl he says Holder knew, and Holder's page carried images of girls posed as if dead under sticks. An officer asked to reopen, and was told they'd cleared him. Holder has never been charged.The state's rebuttal came in two parts. First, the scene: there was no bloody F on the tree once the chemical test was applied, no one called the upside-down L a rune, the FBI's analyst found no clear runes in the sticks, and even Dr. Perlmutter, the defense's ritual expert, could only say the sticks meant something to the offender. Second, the alibi: Holder was at work 25 miles away in Buffalo, Indiana, at 2:13 and at 2:32, and a landfill clerk testified a missing driver would have been noticed.Judge Vaidik asked Leeman whether he was asking the court to reweigh evidence. His answer was that the jury should have been the one to weigh it.Defense attorney Bob Motta and I go clip by clip through the tattoo, the alibi, and the crime scene Leeman says no one takes a walk and decides to stage.Allen is serving 130 years. The panel has not ruled.Listen Anywhere You Get Podcasts: https://pod.link/1655749292Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

What if your creativity knows something before you do?In this month's episode Rachel Efron's asks her most provocative question yet: if dreams can reveal truths outside of our conscious understanding, can our creativity do the same? Inspired by an experience teaching dreamers in Delphi, Greece, Rachel explores the intimate relationship between dreaming and creating, and the associative state of mind they share.Through neuroscience, personal stories, and the strange symbolic conversation between her own songs and dreams, Rachel considers what's possible when we emphasize the connection between dreaming and creativity. She offers examples of dreams informing creative lives, and suggests that likewise, our creativity can inform our dreaming. She shares examples of her creative work being as prophetic as dreams: songs describing relationships and choices she had not yet experienced.Rachel then invites listeners into a series of association exercises she created to move us beyond effortful thinking (“convergent thinking”) and toward the looser thinking of dreaming (“divergent thinking”). She teaches listeners how to begin developing a dictionary of symbols available to both your creativity and dreaming.Sparks of InsightCreativity and dreaming share a mental process: divergent thinking.Dreaming is creativity practice; creativity is dreaming practice. Anytime we dream or create, we are deepening our relationship to both.If prophetic dreams are possible, what about prophetic creativity? A provocative exploration of whether a song, painting, or poem can sense what is still becoming.Effort is not always the fastest way forward. Stepping away from a problem and doing an “association journey” can lead us toward the small truths we need to make real progress.Rest creates a landing place for ideas. Sometimes what feels like lack of inspiration is really a lack of internal space for your plentiful new ideas.Ready to discover your unique creative landscape?Download the Muzi app at http://itunes.apple.com/app/id6739667782 to take the Creativity Assessment, and uncover your Spark profile.

Convicted Delphi murderer Richard Allen is appealing his 130-year sentence, arguing that solitary confinement induced severe psychosis that led to false confessions. In Texas, prosecutors have dropped the death penalty against Lee Gilley, who is accused of killing his pregnant wife, in an effort to clear the path for his extradition from Italy. Meanwhile, the attorney for a Missouri woman charged in a fatal drunk driving crash that killed a Washington University PhD candidate insists his client was not actually the person behind the wheel.

Mark Leeman held a police sketch up in front of three appeals judges on September 21, 2026. It shows a young man with curly brown hair, drawn from the description of the eyewitness the state relied on to put Richard Allen on the Monon High Bridge. The jury that convicted Allen in the Delphi murders never saw it. Prosecutors had moved to keep both sketches out as irrelevant and hearsay, and Judge Fran Gull agreed on the morning of opening statements.The jury also watched videos of Allen in his Westville cell with the sound off. Gull ruled the audio was hearsay because it was his own voice and he wasn't testifying. On it, according to the appeal record, Allen calls himself a king and says he started World War III. A metallurgist hired to challenge the bullet match was kept out because Gull ruled he wasn't a firearms expert.The state's written brief concedes Allen had a "period of psychosis" and argues he confessed before and after it. Its lawyer told the court he was held in solitary longer than policy allows because he wasn't safe anywhere else, and that under Indiana case law those conditions aren't coercion.Allen's side wants a new trial because it says the state broke him first and then built a case on what he said. The state's side wants the 130 years upheld because it says any mistake at trial was harmless beyond a reasonable doubt. It says Allen's own words to police, placing him on the trail that afternoon, carry the case on their own.The judges asked the state more than once whether the jury would have convicted anyway. The answer to that question is the whole appeal. There's no deadline, and Gull retires at the end of 2026 either way.Listen Anywhere You Get Podcasts: https://pod.link/1655749292Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

The State of Indiana's proof that Richard Allen was treated well in solitary is a short list: a free replacement tablet, a new cell window, and a couple of in-person visits with his wife. The state's lawyer read it to the Indiana Court of Appeals on September 21, 2026, in the Delphi murders appeal, and the warden's 2023 account explains the tablet. Allen destroyed the first one in the days after the phone call in which he told his wife he killed Abby and Libby, while refusing to eat or sleep.That call was April 3, 2023. She hung up on him. The state counted 61 incriminating statements after that, to his mother, to guards, to the warden, and to the prison psychologist, and it had a record of every one because the suicide-watch cell logged everything he said every fifteen minutes.Sworn statements from Westville guards confirm they used a Taser on Allen twice in May 2023, for refusing orders, they say. When his lawyers asked to move him because guards wore patches tied to Odinism, the state admitted the patches were real, said the officers were told to remove them, and called a transfer unwarranted.Allen wants a new trial because his lawyers say those thirteen months produced the confessions and the trial court hid the evidence that undercut them. The state wants the conviction upheld because it says restrictive housing isn't coercion under Indiana law and the confessions that matter came when he was lucid.The appeals judges asked the state whether Allen was treated as well as anyone else at Westville.

Recorded at the Evidence Based Perioperative Medicine (EPBOM) World Congress in London, this TopMedTalk episode, presented by Andy Cumpstey, features Guy Ludbrook, Professor of Anaesthesia and Head of Acute Care Medicine at the University of Adelaide and resident Georgia Cadzow, discussing the Perioperative Quality Initiative (POQI) POQI is a not-for-profit that uses a formal Delphi process to distill evidence and expert consensus into publishable clinical recommendations on topics such as perioperative hypotension, acute kidney injury, delirium, health economics, and fluid therapy. Georgia describes the iterative POQI meeting format, including pre-reading, small-group drafting, plenary workshopping, and final voting requiring 85% agreement. The conversation focuses on recent POQI work on Enhanced Postoperative Care (EPOC) units—protocolized, short-stay (24–48 hour) care for medium-risk postoperative patients—covering benefits and harms, economic impacts, and quality indicators, alongside plans for shared core datasets, the EPOC Network, and a 2027 second EPOC World Congress.

The Indiana Court of Appeals asked the state on September 21, 2026, what would be left of the Delphi murders case without Richard Allen's confessions. Deputy Attorney General Ellen Meilaender had an answer ready: the most powerful evidence, she said, was Allen's own statement to police that he was on the trail walking toward the bridge on February 13, 2017. That is the case the state is prepared to defend if the confessions fall.The search warrant is the other pillar. Detective Tony Liggett's affidavit produced the Sig Sauer P226 from Allen's nightstand and, the state says, the match to the unfired round found between the girls. The defense says the affidavit left out the eyewitness description of a man in his 20s and claimed Allen admitted to a blue jacket he'd said he couldn't remember. The state says nothing was false and Allen's own admission was enough for a warrant. If the warrant falls, the gun goes with it.Then the cell. Allen was sent to Westville under a safekeeping order eight days after his arrest, the only pretrial detainee the warden could recall in that unit. The state's lawyer told the judges he was held longer than policy allows because he wasn't safe anywhere else. The state's proof he was treated well included a replacement tablet and two visits with his wife.The judges pressed both sides: they asked the state repeatedly about harmless error and told the defense they don't re-weigh a jury's evidence. Judge Elaine Brown said the only question is whether Allen got a fair trial. No ruling has been issued, the loser can ask the Indiana Supreme Court to take it, and Allen waits in an Oklahoma prison.

Our guest this week is Carissa Véliz, who is Associate Professor in Philosophy at the Institute for Ethics in AI and Tutorial Fellow in Philosophy at Hertford College, Oxford University. She works on privacy, digital ethics and the ethics of AI, and her new book argues that AI has become the new Oracle of Delphi.That book is Prophecy: Prediction, Power, and the Fight for the Future. It is a history of prediction as much as a book about AI — tracing the line from ancient oracles to credit scores, bail algorithms and tech CEOs, and arguing that a prediction is never a neutral forecast but an instrument of power. As she points out in the conversation, for all the thousands of books on how to forecast, nobody had yet written one on the ethics of it.Carissa is also the author of Privacy Is Power, an Economist book of the year translated into seven languages, and The Ethics of Privacy and Surveillance. She is also the editor of the Oxford Handbook of Digital Ethics. She has advised the UK and Spanish governments, sits on the board of the Proton Foundation alongside Tim Berners-Lee, and is a member of UNESCO's Women4Ethical AI expert group.We talk about:Is AI the new Oracle of Delphi?When a CEO predicts, is it a forecast or an order?Obeying in advanceA prediction can never be a factThe turkey's disappointment at ThanksgivingDoes polling corrupt democracy?Why a self-fulfilling prophecy is the perfect crimeA blow dryer, a sensor, and what's wrong with prediction marketsIs AI doing the creative work while we do the boring jobs?Let's not prophesise!Web: www.whereshallwemeet.xyzTwitter: @whrshallwemeetInstagram: @whrshallwemeet

Can ideas developed thousands of years ago help leaders make better decisions about AI, data and digital transformation today? In this episode of Tech Talks Daily, I speak with Alfonso Asensio, author of Digital Wisdom: Leading Transformation With the Sophia Factor and head of data measurement for global clients at Google in Tokyo. Alfonso has spent his career working across data, digital business and global client leadership, but his latest work looks beyond technical capability. He asks what changes when organizations bring sound judgment, ethical reasoning and human purpose into the decisions that shape digital change. We begin with Sophia, the classical Greek idea of wisdom. Alfonso argues that modern business often treats wisdom as another word for knowledge, even though the older idea also included practical intelligence and judgment. Technical expertise can tell a company whether a system can be built. Wisdom asks why it should be built, who benefits and what consequences may follow. That distinction matters when businesses feel pressure to adopt AI because competitors are doing the same. Alfonso shares the story of a large company with the resources, talent and urgency to pursue an ambitious digital program. When he asked what the business was trying to achieve, the answer became a list of fashionable technologies. AI-driven customer activity, blockchain supply chains and data optimization had become substitutes for a clear objective. His conclusion was that the company was attempting to build its future on buzzwords. Sometimes the better decision is to remain analog in a particular process if that choice serves customers and employees better. We also consider Socratic thinking in organizations where boards and investors expect certainty. For Socrates, confusion was a stage in learning rather than a failure of leadership. Alfonso believes leaders can use probing questions to expose assumptions and contradictions before a technology plan becomes expensive. Admitting uncertainty can be difficult, but false certainty can send a business confidently in the wrong direction. Heraclitus offers another useful comparison. Technology resembles a river that never stops moving, while employees need stability and meaning. Alfonso argues that leaders should create stable banks around that flow through a consistent capacity for improvement, adaptation and long-term thinking. The tools will continue to change, but organizations can reduce exhaustion when people understand the purpose behind that change and have a reliable way to respond. One of the most memorable parts of our conversation compares large language models with the Oracle of Delphi. Ancient leaders sought answers from an institution whose workings they could not fully see. Modern users can receive equally confident guidance from AI systems without knowing which data, assumptions or commercial interests influenced the response. Alfonso's point is not that machines are mystical. It is that people need discernment, source awareness and judgment when an answer arrives with authority. We then turn to Epicurus and the idea of ataraxia, or freedom from anxiety. In a business setting, Alfonso connects this with reducing unnecessary friction, decision fatigue and overload. Systems should be reliable, suited to the organization and valuable to employees as well as customers. Governance sometimes requires deliberately adding friction before investment, so teams can pressure test assumptions and ask whether people will be served by a tool or forced to serve it. Alfonso closes with two questions for any leader considering a major AI decision. What is our identity as an organization, and are we acting ethically? He uses Blockbuster as an example of a company that defined itself through videotape rental rather than entertainment. A clear identity can help a business choose technology that supports its purpose. The ethical check then asks whether transparency, consent and accountability are present, or whether data and algorithms are being used to manipulate people. Are organizations giving themselves enough time to ask why an AI system should exist before asking how quickly it can be deployed? Listen to the conversation, then share your thoughts with me.

Where Should You Go in Greece for Ancient History? | Aristotle Koskinas on Hidden Gems & Must-See SitesPlanning a trip to Greece? Some of its greatest archaeological treasures are hiding in plain sight—and even at famous sites like Delphi, visitors can walk straight past monuments that changed Greek history.So where should an ancient history lover actually go?In this episode of Classical Wisdom Speaks, Anya Leonard speaks with archaeologist and veteran tourist guide Aristotle Koskinas for an insider's journey through Greece—from Olympia, Delphi and Thermopylae to Naxos, Santorini, Rhodes and remarkable sites most tourists never see.With more than 20 years as a guide and experience of hundreds of archaeological sites, Aristotle explains not only where to go, but what to look for once you get there.At Olympia, we explore the ancient Olympic Games and the workshop where Phidias created the enormous gold-and-ivory Statue of Zeus, one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World.At Delphi, Aristotle takes us beyond the famous Temple of Apollo to inscriptions, treasuries and monuments connected to the Persian Wars—some so easily overlooked that visitors walk straight past them without realizing their importance.Then there's Thermopylae. Where exactly did Leonidas and the 300 Spartans make their famous last stand? Aristotle explains how archaeology and the landscape can change the way we understand one of antiquity's most legendary battles.But Greece is much more than its most famous sites.We also discover quieter archaeological gems near Athens, the ancient city of Messene, the spectacular Royal Tombs at Vergina, and islands where extraordinary landscapes meet thousands of years of history—from ancient marble quarries on Naxos and Bronze Age Akrotiri on Santorini to medieval Chios and Rhodes.Whether you're planning your next Greek holiday or exploring from home, grab a pen and paper—this is an archaeologist's guide to the Greece most visitors miss.Key Topics:The best archaeological sites in GreeceAncient Olympia and the original Olympic GamesPhidias and the Statue of ZeusWhat visitors miss at DelphiAncient inscriptions and the Persian WarsWhy Plataea deserves more attentionRethinking the battlefield of ThermopylaeLeonidas and the 300 SpartansHidden archaeological gems near AthensThe Sanctuary of Amphiaraos and RhamnousAncient MesseneThe Royal Tombs at VerginaNaxos and its ancient marbleAkrotiri and ancient SantoriniThe medieval treasures of ChiosAncient and medieval RhodesTimestamps:00:00 What everyone misses at Delphi00:39 An insider's guide to Greece01:52 Meet Aristotle Koskinas05:03 Layers of Greek history07:03 Greece's must-see sites07:12 Ancient Olympia09:15 What tourists miss at Olympia12:50 The secrets of Delphi16:38 Monuments everyone walks past19:25 Greece's must-see battlefields19:45 Why visit Plataea?22:22 Rethinking Thermopylae25:40 Greece's hidden archaeological gems26:28 Sanctuary of Amphiaraos27:40 Ancient Rhamnous28:54 Ancient Messene30:01 Royal Tombs at Vergina32:31 Greece's best islands for history33:08 Naxos34:44 Santorini & Akrotiri35:24 Chios42:30 Ancient & medieval Rhodes44:02 The splendor of GreeceIf you could visit just one archaeological site in Greece tomorrow, where would you go—Delphi, Olympia, Thermopylae, Akrotiri, or somewhere completely off the beaten track?Let us know in the comments, and subscribe to Classical Wisdom for more conversations exploring the people, places and ideas of the ancient world.

Today, we journey to the center of the ancient Greek world to uncover the secrets, power, and mystical rituals of the Oracle of Delphi. From the sacred grounds at the foot of Mount Parnassus and the mythic origins of Apollo's shrine, to the mysterious Pythia and the intoxicating vapors said to induce divine visions, we explore how one sanctuary shaped the fate of empires and guided history's greatest rulers. We also dive into the high-stakes politics of who truly controlled Delphi, the legendary prophecies that tested King Croesus and foresaw the defense of Athens, the famous words spoken of Socrates, and the eventual decline of the ancient world's most revered oracle. Welcome to History Camp!
