In 1974, Wichita, Kansas was shaken by a series of brutal attacks inside family homes. Men, women, and children were bound, tortured, and killed by a predator who called himself BTK. For 17 years, he terrorized the community, claiming at least 10 victims and taunting police with disturbing letters that detailed his crimes. Then in 1991, the killings abruptly stopped, leaving law enforcement and the public to wonder if the killer had vanished forever. For more than a decade, there was silence. Then in 2004, BTK resurfaced with new messages, reigniting fear in Wichita. But that renewed need for attention would ultimately be his downfall, and by the following year, detectives had identified the killer as Dennis Rader, a father of two, a Scout leader, and a trusted member of his church council. Rader was the last person anyone suspected of being a sexual sadist serial killer, but once investigators began putting all the puzzle pieces together, it became clear that Rader's family-man persona was just a mask covering the monster beneath.

The enclave known as Butcher Town flourished around Cannon's millpond until 1850, when the expansion of Charleston's city limits propelled the slaughtering business northward. The migration of butchers' pens across the Neck then triggered a decades-long battle between private enterprise and public efforts to regulate the industry. Following a suite of political and technological developments in the early twentieth century, a modern municipal abattoir ultimately scrubbed the ancient blood-soaked industry from the local landscape.

A U.S. official just reminded Congress of the enormous threat we face from Communist China: “America's adversaries…are already embedded in our systems, mapping our infrastructure, and preparing to disrupt critical operations at a time of their choosing….Cyberattacks on energy infrastructure are a daily reality and a growing strategic weapon.”  This report makes all the more astounding the fact that the Securities and Exchange Commission continues to enable Chinese Communist companies – even ones blacklisted for being tied directly to the CCP's military – to have privileged access to America's capital markets.  While SEC Chairman Paul Atkins says he's going to “scrutinize” more carefully such companies and what they are doing, unless and until he terminates a 2013 Memorandum of Understanding engineered by then-Vice President Joe Biden, our investors will continue – mostly unwittingly – to prop up and otherwise underwrite the greatest threat this country has ever faced.

On this episode, we tackle the deadly consequences of failed security and immigration policies. Joe Dolio, Marine Corps veteran and fraud expert, joins us to discuss last week's National Guardsman shootings in D.C., the vulnerabilities exposed by unvetted immigration, and parallels with Somali fraud networks in Minnesota. We break down how lax vetting and governmental inaction put American lives at risk and what citizens can do to protect themselves in an increasingly chaotic environment.Colorado is in crisis. Under Governor Polis and a Democrat supermajority, crime, drug use, and homelessness have surged, while K-12 education continues its steady decline, slipping six spots nationally over eight years. Homicides and overdoses have risen every year since 2018, leaving families vulnerable and communities strained. From deadly crashes involving repeat offenders to violent home intrusions, Coloradans are feeling the impact of mismanaged priorities and weak enforcement policies.We also expose the state's systemic failures at home. With shocking cases like the Highway 83 crash that killed five, committed by a parolee with a long criminal history, it's clear that Coloradans are paying the price for policymakers' misplaced priorities. Tune in as we examine the policies, the numbers, and the real human cost of eight years of governance gone wrong.

Michigan Representative John Moolenaar is a national treasure.  As chairman of the House Select Committee on the Chinese Communist Party, he's led opposition to Wall Street's ongoing practice of “funding our demise.” In a recent interview on “Securing America,” Chairman Moolenaar declared: “We see these situations where American investor dollars unknowingly are either advancing…Chinese slave labor or cooperation with the Chinese military industrial complex. And that's just wrong. But we need to make it illegal, and we need to [enact] legislation, as well as cooperation with the executive branch, to shut that down.” A PresentDangerChina.org webinar today featuring Mr. Moolenaar's leadership, will showcase an immediate corrective: SEC Chairman Paul Atkins can swiftly, and unilaterally, terminate a bilateral Memorandum of Understanding that allows CCP companies uniquely to ignore our securities laws and regulations.  Stop financing our demise!

Revelation 20 presents a visionary depiction of Satan's ultimate defeat, not as a literal thousand-year earthly reign but as a symbolic epoch marking the ongoing triumph of Christ's kingdom from His ascension to His return. The binding of Satan in the abyss signifies his effective restraint from deceiving the nations, a reality fulfilled through Christ's cross and resurrection, which thwarted his ambition to establish a global, anti-God empire. Though Satan remains active in the present age, his power is limited and his final defeat is assured, culminating in a final, futile rebellion—Gog and Magog—after which he is cast into the lake of fire, not as a conqueror but as a defeated enemy. The passage affirms that the true kingdom of Christ is not a temporary, earthly dominion but an eternal, heavenly reality where believers reign with Him, and it calls the faithful to reject fear of present evil, trusting instead in Christ's sovereign victory and the hope of His eternal reign. 1.

Centrica CEO Chris O'Shea provides a comprehensive overview of the challenges and opportunities facing the UK energy sector. He begins by addressing the recent collapse of Tomato Energy, emphasising that when energy suppliers fail, the costs are ultimately borne by consumers. He calls for stronger regulation and greater financial resilience among energy companies, criticising Ofgem for a lack of transparency. He argues that the current system allows "profits to be privatised while losses are socialised".O'Shea discusses the government's net zero by 2030 target, describing it as “unbelievably ambitious” but necessary to drive progress in the industry. He stresses the importance of a balanced and paced transition, warning that moving too quickly could leave communities behind, as happened with the closure of coal mines in Fife. The interview explores the decline of the North Sea oil industry and its impact on Aberdeen, with O'Shea noting that the full effects on jobs have yet to be felt. He highlights Centrica's commitment to job creation and apprenticeships, aiming to take on one apprentice every day for the next decade.Drawing on his own experience of job insecurity as a graduate, he underscores the need for careful planning and investment in skills to ensure a just transition. He also addresses the challenges of the energy transition, acknowledging that it will be neither cheap nor easy, but insisting that it is essential for the country's future.Presenter :Sean Farrington Producer: Olie D'Albertanson Editor: Henry JonesTimecodes: 02:54 Collapse of Tomato Energy 05:52 Regulation and financial resilience in the energy sector 12:05 Centrica's investment strategy and shareholder returns 14:07 Profits in energy retail vs. other business segments 21:15 Net Zero 2030 aspirations 24:36 Government policy on renewables, net zero, and North Sea licenses 29:39 The impact of the North Sea's decline on Aberdeen and job creation 34:00 Graduate programs and youth employment 37:19 Redundancies and management cuts

About the Lecture: "Our democracy is getting self-destroyed, for it abused the rights of freedom and of equality; for it taught the citizens to regard insolence as a right, illegality as freedom, impertinence as equality, and anarchy as happiness." Isocrates, Athenian orator (436-338 BC) Democracy first emerged in ancient Athens in 507 BC following a long turbulent period of aristocracy and tyranny, when a nexus of intertwined geopolitical, sociopolitical, economic, and cultural developments led to the morphogenesis of this new political constitution. Athenian Democracy formulated the political ideology and fundamental principles that were later canonized by modern democracies, formalized defensive mechanisms against undue concentration of power and employed innovative integrative mechanisms to propagate its ideology and educate the citizens. Pathogenic traits-catalysts, however, such as the extreme polarization between mass and elite, demagogy, populism, failure of justice, apathy, and poor education caused extensive political ankylosis. Internal corrosion and changing historical conditions caused the decline and fall of Democracy three centuries later.Isocrates' aphorism, therefore, rings alarmingly all too pragmatic and relevant today, 250 years since the resurgence of Democracy in the modern era. Are we running a similar cycle, repeating old mistakes, standing at the same juncture, heading towards the same dead end? To navigate forward, find solutions, and shape our future, we need first to study our past. About the Speaker: With over 35 years of experience in archaeology, teaching, and administration, Prof. Christofilis Maggidis is a faculty member at the Institute of World Politics in Washington, D.C., President of the Mycenaean Foundation, and Field Director of Excavations at Mycenae and Lamia.

In 2022 Prof. Maggidis joined the Institute of World Politics in Washington D.C. where he teaches at graduate level and directs "Hermes," the Institute's study abroad program in Greece. His research focuses on Minoan and Mycenaean archaeology, Classical Greek art and architecture, and archaeological methodology. With 40 years of field experience, Prof. Maggidis has led excavations at prominent sites in Greece, including Mycenae, Glas, and the Spercheios Valley, making significant discoveries and directing acclaimed field schools that trained over 450 students from 44 universities worldwide.

In this episode, Tracy sits down with agricultural economist, strategist, and author Michelle Klieger to discuss the shifting global trade landscape and what it means for farmers. From the post–World War II rise of free trade to the Trump-era shift toward protectionism, Michelle breaks down how we got here, what's really happening in the U.S.–China trade war, and how these policies are reshaping agriculture across the world. If you've ever wondered what "Make America Great Again" means for farm markets — or how global trade politics directly affect the prices, policies, and opportunities farmers face — this episode is a must-listen.

In the final weeks before his death, Jeffrey Epstein's state of mind was a chaotic blend of despair, denial, and defiance. Jail records show he was restless, sleepless, and visibly agitated — crouching in his cell with his hands over his ears to drown out noise, pacing aimlessly, and struggling to adjust from luxury to confinement. Guards noted his anxiety and mood swings, describing him as alternately withdrawn and frustrated. He reportedly called himself a “coward” and told staff he couldn't bear the isolation, yet insisted to psychologists that he wasn't suicidal, saying it would be “crazy” to kill himself and that he still had a “wonderful life.” The collapse of his empire — from private jets and palatial homes to a concrete cell — shattered the narcissistic image he'd built over decades. Psychologists later concluded that Epstein's entire sense of self was tied to control, power, and prestige — all of which had been stripped away, leaving him psychologically cornered and destabilized.However, his attorney David Schoen told a starkly different story. In a five-hour meeting just days before Epstein's death, Schoen said his client was “animated and energized,” focused on his legal defense, and adamant about fighting the charges in court. Epstein had reportedly asked Schoen to take over as lead counsel and appeared optimistic about his chances. That interaction led Schoen to firmly reject the idea of suicide, arguing that Epstein's mindset was far from hopeless. He cited forensic pathologist Michael Baden's findings that Epstein's neck fractures were “more consistent with homicidal strangulation than suicidal hanging.” Between the prison records describing agitation and the lawyer's insistence on Epstein's resolve, the truth of Epstein's final state of mind remains contested — split between the image of a crumbling man at the edge of despair and that of a calculating manipulator who still believed he could talk his way out of hell.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com

Jeffrey Epstein's death inside his Metropolitan Correctional Center cell revealed a staggering breakdown of basic federal detention protocols. Despite being a high-profile inmate previously placed on suicide watch, Epstein was left alone after his cellmate was inexplicably transferred the night before his death, and guards neglected to conduct mandatory 30-minute checks. Surveillance cameras outside his cell malfunctioned, leaving critical moments unrecorded, and the scene itself appeared disordered—mattresses stacked, linens scattered, and personal items misplaced—raising questions about contamination of evidence. Investigators later admitted that the cell had not been properly preserved as a potential crime scene, an extraordinary failure given Epstein's notoriety and the global attention surrounding his incarceration.Further deepening suspicion were the materials found inside the cell, including bed sheets and cords that should have been restricted for any inmate with a prior suicide incident. Epstein's neck injuries also became a source of contention: the official medical examiner declared suicide by hanging, but independent pathologists claimed the wounds were more consistent with strangulation. Combined with camera gaps, staff negligence, and the Bureau of Prisons' evasive explanations, the circumstances surrounding Epstein's cell at the time of his death have come to symbolize one of the most glaring institutional failures in modern U.S. corrections—fueling widespread belief that the full truth has yet to be told.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.

Jeffrey Epstein's death inside his Metropolitan Correctional Center cell revealed a staggering breakdown of basic federal detention protocols. Despite being a high-profile inmate previously placed on suicide watch, Epstein was left alone after his cellmate was inexplicably transferred the night before his death, and guards neglected to conduct mandatory 30-minute checks. Surveillance cameras outside his cell malfunctioned, leaving critical moments unrecorded, and the scene itself appeared disordered—mattresses stacked, linens scattered, and personal items misplaced—raising questions about contamination of evidence. Investigators later admitted that the cell had not been properly preserved as a potential crime scene, an extraordinary failure given Epstein's notoriety and the global attention surrounding his incarceration.Further deepening suspicion were the materials found inside the cell, including bed sheets and cords that should have been restricted for any inmate with a prior suicide incident. Epstein's neck injuries also became a source of contention: the official medical examiner declared suicide by hanging, but independent pathologists claimed the wounds were more consistent with strangulation. Combined with camera gaps, staff negligence, and the Bureau of Prisons' evasive explanations, the circumstances surrounding Epstein's cell at the time of his death have come to symbolize one of the most glaring institutional failures in modern U.S. corrections—fueling widespread belief that the full truth has yet to be told.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

How should one live? What should one do? And what do these questions have to do with being a good person? In Unbecoming Persons: The Rise and Demine of the Modern Moral Self (University of Chicago Press, 2025), Ladelle McWhorter reorients these questions through a genealogy of the concept of personhood. That genealogy is in the service of showing us not only that personhood is historically contingent, but that it is also optional. In unbecoming persons, we can feel relief, vital belonging, and exhilaration. We can also embrace an ethos of active belonging, a mode of living that eschews the trappings of personhood for the possibilities of life together. Learn more about your ad choices.

It took a stock market crash, the Great Depression, WWII, and The New Deal to finally wrench the power away and redistribute it for the sake of building a middle class that could work in relative safety in the US. Today's Robber Barrons™ ushering in techno-feudalism under the banner of AI-For-All are no different but with even higher stakes in the balance. Be part of the show!

The final ending discussed is the slow demise of the Norsesettlement in Greenland, settled by Erik the Red around 985 AD. Herjolfsnes, one of the last settled places, provides poignant evidence from its graveyard. Due to permafrost, the coarse, mended woolen clothes (vaðmál) of the last generations, dating up to the early 15th century, were preserved. These garments reveal the increasing isolation and poverty of the inhabitants as climate conditions worsened. The ultimate mystery remains what happened to the very last people after the final burials. The final surviving reports from Greenland via Iceland are a 1407 witch burning (of a man seduced by witchcraft) and a 1408 wedding.
