The History  I started my shopify store around the 10th December 2023 after a viral video on TikTok on December 8th. So I integrated with Bookvault and stayed with POD shipping until February 2025. Since February 2025, I've been distributing and fulfilling all orders from my website in my own warehouse. These are the lessons I've learned from the last ten months of running my own website sales and distribution. And yes, I will talk numbers, but I'm making you wait till the end! Please note, I will talk about finances, systems and the occasional legal thing. Absolutely nothing I say is financial, legal or tax advice. You must seek advice from professionals in your own countries and tax territories. I recognise that this model is not for 99% of authors. It's a LOT of work. It's a lot of logistics, a lot of peopling, team building, paperwork and problem solving. This is as far removed from sitting behind a desk and writing 24/7 as you can get.  Do not listen to this with an open heart. Be skeptical, that will keep you on the right track for creating a business you love. But know that I do love this and I am framing these lessons learned from that perspective. Why Direct? I'd always had a transactional website for Sacha Black work but it barely did £20 a month. So I knew the work I was about to scramble to do for Ruby may be for nothing. But I didn't want to be beholden to TikTok the way I'd been beholdened to other sources of income and I knew if I'd gone viral once, I could do it again and that would lead to relying on TikTok. What do I mean why? Two reasons: why should you as an author have a direct store but also why should readers come to you? For you, you can earn more per sale. POD companies integrating with shopify automatically give you more as there are no hidden fees. But when you shift to print runs you more than half the cost of printing each book. Of course you also give yourself a host of other problems like fulfillment and overheads, but you gain a lot more product flexibility and potential meaning you have the opportunity to make bigger profit. BUT and this is a big but, you have to work out what you want your business to look like. That said, there are consequences. I usually write and publish 3 books a year and this year I've dropped to 2 published. Though I will have written a 3rd and a short story by the end of the year. But I wasn't able to get that third one published. Despite that, this is going to be my biggest year ever for income. It already beat last year in 7 months. Which goes to show that you don't have to be rapid releasing anymore to make good money. The fact I've not published three, is a direct consequence of the warehouse and also the increasing team size and the need to train staff. Thankfully due to the Kickstarter, some rights deals an big increase in direct sales of products and merch, I haven't seen a dip in income. Which goes to show that you don't have to be rapid releasing anymore to make good money. There are other benefits like reader loyalty because you're treating them better, you are able to provide higher quality books and with extra goodies and sign all the books for example. And that's really the heart of the mindset shift you need to have and how you should frame thinking about a direct store. Why should a reader bother coming to you when they can get next day shipping for free on Amazon? Can you answer that before you set up your store? For me this looks like three promises: Every book that leaves the warehouse is handsigned by me (I do this in batches and sign for 4-5 hours and get several thousand books signed in one go so it doesn't disturb writing time.) They get extra bonuses for ordering directly like stickers, bookmarks and character art. Last, if they preorder a book in any format I have for sale on the website, it will get shipped BEFORE the public release date. We aim for delivery a couple of weeks prior but it depends on print runs and me hitting deadlines. Things to consider before leaving POD direct and moving to self fulfillment: Where are you going to stock your books? Do you have local warehousing facilities or somewhere you own you can use? Stock requires more space than you think. Because it's not just books you need space for, it's packaging, and space for parcels before collection and space for a computer and printer etc. What is your cash flow like? Do you have the capital that you can risk losing to spend on investing in this? Thanks to great advice from one of my closest author pals, I didn't buy shipping containers for conversion to put on family land which was a circa 40k investment. Instead I rented a warehouse so that I was only risking the cost of one year's rent circa 9k and I'd also be able to up and leave and close everything down if it went wrong. What's your problem solving resiliency like? Solving problems, if it's not your bag, is relentlessly exhausting. Problems arise in all areas of this business, from shipping to label printing to packaging to import and export paperwork, to sourcing products, VAT, pricing, website, delivery issues. Etc. The list is long. Honestly? There's rarely a day without some kind of issue that needs resolving. How does that make you feel? Excited or horrified? Pay attention to those emotions. The only business you should be building is one that brings you joy. Last, is the reality that if you want to fulfill direct yourself you *will* need staff—if you want to continue to write that is. If you think about it, POD direct staff your website for you. They have teams packing the boxes, printing labels and shipping everything for you. So no matter which way you cut it, whether it's you organising staff or your printers, someone has to do the leg work. Mindset shifts eCommerce  Yes I'm an author, but running your own fulfillment from website sales means you also run an eCommerce business. And over and above that, I now run a physical product business because we have merchandise. Those combined make for a very, very different business structure and set of problems compared to the old school models of being an indie author. Traffic Direction First of all and most basic of all. I direct all traffic to my website without exception. My primary links on social media are my website. If people ask where they can buy my books, it's my website. If they say they can't then I'll direct them online to a more well known store.   Schedules are a bitch.  When you're writing in a solo business and uploading your books online, your schedule is essentially your own. When you then bring on a team, they are reliant on you delivering on time to make sure they can do their job. How does that make you feel? Knowing you *have* to deliver for someone else? For a long time I really hated being beholden to deadlines—probably a corporate spill over. But being responsible for a team and needing to deliver for them is very different. I adore my team, I love them and care about them and I *want* to deliver on time for them. This is a total re-framing for me. It's the right kind of pressure and responsibility attached to a deadline. Does that mean my creativity needs to show up on time? Sure, but I find this motivating because it's the right people around me. However, the first book post warehouse opening, we were all still learning and mistakes were made. I delivered one book late. That pushed everything and made a lot of the timelines difficult including getting the printed books delivered on time. For Architecti there were two main problems: a solid 20% of the order arrived damaged by rain. But we'd already sold almost all the initial print run so we couldn't spare 20% and thus didn't have enough stock to cover our preorders. So this caused a lot of anxiety. Under ordering stock is a terrifying prospect. As is over ordering because do you have enough space for it and what if you then don't sell it?  The second mistake was releasing a book without checking the diaries of the warehouse team who happened to be on holiday during the fulfillment process. Which in a bout of shit timing, my mum then got sick in the crucial week. Meaning I had to stop writing and fulfill 1000 preorders single handedly. It was grueling physically, mentally and emotionally doing it on my own. We're never having that cluster fuck again.  So we've produced a heat map style document with everyone's leave, delivery dates, deadlines for me, product ordering dates, prepping dates and fulfillment periods etc. This was an enormous lesson in logistics of both a warehouse and people. Exclusivity Kindle Unlimited works for a reason. It has books exclusive to Amazon, you literally cannot get them anywhere else. Meaning you're forced to get them there. If that worked for Amazon, you can bet you're arse it works for others.  So I stole the idea. I have four novellas /short stories that I publish exclusively on my website. Does that mean a huge risk for loss of visibility and potential sales? Absolutely. No rank, no visibility in the biggest algorithm machine in the world. But it is also one of the key sales tactics I've used to get readers over to me. And boy has it worked. I make sure it's content I know they'll want, I flash the extra books on my reels and videos and then the questions flood in — how do I get those books… Well I'll tell you…! Preorders Preorders are both a gift and a logistical nightmare. How to get them? We ran an enormous campaign for Architecti. Ending up with 1027 paperbacks, 323 hardbacks and 193 ebooks. For a total 1543 preorders on my website. Plus over 1000 ebooks on Amazon. So the total preorders were in excess of 2500 preorders. Firstly you have to ask why should readers preorder direct to you? As mentioned earlier we make three promises: Everything is signed They get extras and goodies including a Roe-Mantics popsocket, series sticker and bookmark and an art print. As well as a Ruby Roe reading tracking and reading order and some stickers. They get the books delivered early (ebook and physical) We promoted the shit out of these three facts and I do believe this is the reason we did so well. That, plus almost two years of pushing direct sales and building reader trust. I won't go into all the marketing we did as this is a podcast about the warehouse. But we pushed HARD. We made a couple of mistakes: We didn't order enough books. We ordered 1000 paperbacks and ended up having to do a second print run because we sold over 1000 and obviously knew we needed stock on hand for general sales — a good problem to have obviously. But if we had ordered a higher quantity from the start we would have had a better price per book and saved ourselves some money and increased profit. That's a tough lesson to learn as we're always having to balance cashflow. The second mistake was packaging. We pride ourselves on making sure the books arrive in pristine condition. The consequence of that is how long it takes to package. The primary damage a book can fall prey to is the rain, or being dropped. We were individually wrapping each book in foam or bubble wrap before putting them inside bookwraps with the goodies to ship. This took me almost two weeks to do for circa a thousand parcels. I spoke to my warehouse neighbour who is a book box subscription company and discovered that they ship 1000 parcels in a couple of days because they uses origami boxes with packing peanuts and a plastic exterior envelope bag for water protection. This results in them working at a significantly faster rate than us. And has led us to get boxes designed and we're in the process of ordering 10k boxes. Customer Communication Customer communication has been an absolute maelstrom. The more products we create, the more complex everything gets. Becca used to be primarily a scheduler for me. Now, she's moved to be a customer services manager. Major issues include: when they preorder a book and put a published book into the same order. This is a means we have to email them to let them know they have two options: either we refund and they order separately or they wait for both their books. This is a huge problem as there are a number of preorders live at any one time and thus a ton of customer communication needed. It has gotten better as we have educated our repeat customers, put messages and labels on the site. But it is an ever present problem. We have decided to commission a coder to write some code for shopify so that we can charge two lots of shipping and split ship. We've also had so many communications about the tariffs. This has been so difficult because we are not the ones charging but we are the first point of call. It is in large part due to the team being incredible that we got through this. Last, I still receive an email for every single order. So I do one additional thing. I make a point to keep an eye on when someone has ordered multiple times in short succession and then send them to the team to refund duplicate postage.  Protecting Writing Time This is so vital. And has been the hardest part of having a warehouse. I definitely feel like I lost 6 months of writing time. It's the reason I barely managed to get Architecti done, and the reason I didn't meet my primary goal of getting ahead of production this year. Staffing means interruptions. But more than that, having the discipline to put my phone on do not disturb or muting team chats while I write. Now that we're up to speed, refining processes and we have SOPs in place, I am finding it easier and easier to not go to the warehouse. We also stopped having the smaller deliveries sent to my house and instead they're going to my team's houses or direct to the warehouse. Regulations and Tariffs  With a physical product business there are so many more regulations and acronyms and pieces of law that you have to deal with. The level of bureaucracy is quite astonishing and has caused a number of headaches. These headaches are not the type of headaches that most authors would want to deal with. You have to choose the poison you want to drink and I genuinely recognise that 99% of authors would not want this headache. The other matter here is that the regulations have required a colossal amount of time spent on them. More time than we anticipated. Something new is always being thrown at us and usually things that we do not have knowledge on. So we're constantly in a state of adapting and learning. This is both wonderful and also a little gruelling.  As there's not many people doing this we don't have many options for checking we're on the right path, so having to trust ourselves that we've done the best we can with the knowledge we have. And also recognise that it's okay to not know everything. Logistics There's been a lot of logistic lessons learned too. Firstly, that shipping providers are a nightmare. They're massive organisations and that means corporate bureaucracy. Lots of being passed between departments and having to wait for responses. You're probably going to need additional app integrations some of which will cost. Just pay for the apps because it will make your life simpler. We have a DPD integration app that makes handling and managing preorders and labels considerably easier. Batch as much as you can: like signing books, preparing freebie packets, cutting foam and pre-building boxes. Batch packaging, in particular for preorders. For example, all the UK paperbacks then all the UK hardbacks etc. It's easier to do the same thing over and over and then task switch than it is to do it higgledy piggledy. Timelines  Understanding the timelines for launches has been quite the challenge. When you're a solo indie you are in charge of your own time. When you have a team, and other people do parts of the publishing process, you're no longer working on your own schedule. Combined with the fact that a huge percentage of my turnover comes from physical book sales. This means we have to do print runs. Instead of loading up to KDP or the POD services and knowing it will be live the next day or a few days later after a proof copy. Print runs take a couple of days to finalise the files (up to several months for international printers) and then 2-3 weeks to print and deliver to the warehouse for UK printers, and several weeks to months for international. We then have to unpack them and check the quality and then I have to sign them. I am pretty fast at signing now and choose to sign in long batches 4-5 hours at a time and usually manage 1-2000 books in that time. The other timelines that need to be considered are how long things take to pack. But I've already talked about that. But it is something that needs to be considered when planning preorder fulfillment. The more preorders we get, the more significant the time it takes, that or we need more people to help pack. The Money This is the bit everyone is interested. All costs are in GBP.  Set up costs for the warehouse were approximately £4-5000. This included the deposit, racking, furniture etc. In total, I've spent 100k on printing this year. However a significant portion of that was on the Kickstarter. So I don't count that in the costs for the warehouse. Those sit at £61,171. We are still holding a huge amount of stock in the warehouse so this spend should start to even out. In December 2023 I started the shop around 10th December, I made just shy of £1700 which I think was mostly due to the viral TikToks. In the month of May 2024 I broke £5000. November 2024 I broke 10k for the first time and in December 2024 I broke 15k. That was the month I knew I needed to take advantage of what I was building. I knew I wanted to do more for readers who were clearly willing to buy direct. In 2024, the website turned over £73.5k. I collected keys for the warehouse of January 31st. It took a couple of weeks to set the warehouse up and then we had print runs delivered around the 17th and started shipping on Feb 20th 2025. That was a £16k month, and the first time my Shopify sales beat my Amazon, only by a couple hundred pounds, but it still beat it. It wasn't lost on me that it was the first month I had taken control of distribution. April eclipsed Amazon at 29k and I've stayed between 15 and 29k a month since — Finally in November 2025, I surpassed 30k. As of 21st November we're standing at 222k for the year. I suspect we will end up with turnover somewhere between 230 and 250k for 2025.  Creating definitive turnover and net profit calculations are difficult. What I can tell you is that between the warehouse, staff for the warehouse, utilities and insurances I spend approximately 18-1900 a month (21-23k per year). Shipping varies between 500 and 1500 a week on average but on preorder weeks it can spike to 8k. The highest month for shipping was 11k. I suspect for the year it will be roughly 45-55k.  So for print costs, staffing, rent and shipping the total is approximately £133,971. I estimate 4-7k on other costs like packaging and freebies. So let's estimate £140k spend for £222k turnover. So I estimate approximately £82,000 in profit - to which I'll then have to pay tax. That's a 36% profit. Not as high as I'd like, but also it's year one and spend is always higher in year one because of set up. I expect that as we move into year two that will grow and my aim is to reach 45% but the ultimate goal will be 50% I'm not sure if this is possible but we will try. We have a lot of stock that we can sell without having to spend out anymore.  In terms of granular costs to give you an idea of profit on the detail level: The cost of each book is loosely £2.20 per paperback for which we charge £10.99 on average. We allow for £1 of that to cover packaging and freebies. Meaning £3.20 of costs. Though this doesn't include a % for warehouse overheads. I don't have any advertising costs. I have bought all customers in from my mailing list, TikTok and Instagram. On average my returning customer rate is 35%. However, in months where I set up a new product preorder, that rate shoots up. For November 2025 it's 56%. Similarly, my average conversion rate is 5.83% conversion rate. What's interesting is that in those early months my conversion rate was 3.18%. This month it's 8.53%. I think this increase is twofold. First, I have a high returning customer rate, this automatically increases the conversion rate as your customers want what you're providing. Second, I think my marketing has gotten better and better. We're providing more books, stories and products that my audience wants and we're also getting better at marketing to market. Cash Flow One of the best things I did was create multiple pots and accounts. For a long time I'd lived under the assumption you could only have one business bank account. That was bad advice from an accountant. I have since left them and now have an excellent accountant. I've also had lots of advice from a dear friend who knows far more about money and systems than me.  Cash flow can either sky rocket or cripple a business. And when you run a physical business the numbers you run with are so much higher that you can easily crush your company. One of my favourite tactics is to create mini pots and split money up. For every preorder we run I create a pot in my bank, like a mini bank and every week I put the amount earned for that preorder product into the pot. If the product requires a print run, I pay for it out of that pot. If we have to buy wholesale merch, I take it from that pot etc. I also set aside money for tax each month. I move both personal tax money and corporation tax money and set it aside in a high interest savings account. The biggest outflows for running a distribution warehouse are staffing, warehouse rent, shipping and print runs.  For Architecti specifically, we had to do two print runs because we under ordered books. Meaning I had to outflow huge amounts of money twice. The print runs totalled £11,630. Plus 11,000 in shipping fees for that month. If I didn't have the money set aside for this, it could easily have pushed me into debt. One of the main things I did to help prevent cashflow issues, is have dozens of pots inside my bank accounts.  Every week the team calculates the income for orders and shipping for each product we have on preorder (there are always usually 2 to 3) and then I transfer that money to individual pots. Meaning I save all the money from preorders right up until launch. I then take the money for the print runs from this pot and for the shipping. What's left is the profit which is taxable so I move the tax money into my tax pot and then keep the rest. This is the safest way I've found for managing cashflow and ensuring I don't spend money that needs to be saved for specific things. I also have an entirely separate account for my shopify. So all print runs are paid for out of the shopify account. All shipping payments go out of that account. All printing for freebies etc comes from that account. It becomes totally self managing and over time it increases. Then if I want to take out chunks of profit, I do and keep the account at 20k. This is the equivalent of the average monthly turnover for the shopify. So should cover all bills or worst case scenarios.  I also have a tax pot where I move money each month. My accountants have a report that generates each month and estimates my tax. I then place my tax in a high interest account and leave it to earn some money before I have to pay it. Next Steps Business infrastructure. I recently visited Author Nation – the Las Vegas conference that was once 20books. There are so many areas for growth and improvement and I realised that I have essentially brut forced my way to the position I'm in.

What happens when life-and-death decision-making meets the boardroom? Today our guest is Dr. Geoffrey Mount Varner—a physician, author of "FAST DECISIONS: Think Fast. Be Bold. Be Fearless", and leadership expert—shares how his experience in emergency medicine led him to develop a powerful framework for decision-making under pressure. As the former head of Washington D.C.'s emergency Ebola response, Dr. Varner learned that hesitation can be deadly. Today, he brings that same clarity and urgency to the world of business leadership. Dr. Varner explains how most leaders waste valuable "decision energy" by treating every choice as equally important. His approach teaches executives to quickly identify which decisions deserve deep thought and which can be made in seconds. At the core of his DPD framework—Deep Breath, Pause, Decide—is a deceptively simple but scientifically grounded process that empowers leaders to quiet emotion, activate intuition, and make confident, timely decisions. He and Peter Winick dive into how the corporate world often rewards inaction—where delayed or avoided decisions are seen as safe career moves. Dr. Varner argues that indecision is, in fact, a decision—and one that can cripple organizations. He offers practical, repeatable ways for leaders to break through analysis paralysis, train their teams for agility, and create a culture of accountability and speed. Finally, Dr. Varner reflects on his own transition from medicine to thought leadership—transforming his crisis-tested experience into a business-ready system. Through books, speaking engagements, and workshops, he's building a new generation of leaders who make better choices, faster. Because in both medicine and business, the ability to decide well can be the difference between success and failure. Three Key Takeaways: • Decisiveness Is a Trainable Skill. Great leaders aren't born decisive—they're trained. Dr. Varner's DPD framework (Deep Breath, Pause, Decide) helps leaders manage emotion, engage intuition, and act with confidence under pressure. • Not All Decisions Deserve Equal Attention. Leaders often waste energy treating minor choices like major ones. Dr. Varner categorizes decisions by consequence—low, medium, and high—so leaders can spend their time where it matters most. • Indecision Is Still a Decision. In business as in medicine, delayed action carries risks. Dr. Varner reminds leaders that avoiding decisions is itself a choice—one that can stall progress, weaken accountability, and erode trust. If you found value in this episode's focus on making faster, smarter decisions under pressure, you'll want to check out "Making Better Decisions Through Thought Leadership" with Thomas Lahnthaler. In that conversation, Thomas explores how the strategic use of thought leadership isn't just about ideas—it's about preparing teams for inevitable crisis-points, creating choices rather than waiting for them, and harnessing collective insight when the pressure's on. Listen to both episodes back-to-back to unlock how frameworks + mindset + action combine to turn uncertainty into advantage and hesitation into leadership momentum.

Fluoropyrimidines such as 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) and capecitabine remain cornerstone chemotherapies in oncology. However, for patients with certain DPYD gene variants, these commonly used drugs can cause life-threatening toxicities due to impaired metabolism of the active compounds. In this episode of the Precision Medicine Pharmacist Podcast, host Melissa Smith, PharmD, explores how DPYD genotyping is transforming oncology care by helping clinicians identify patients at risk before toxicity occurs. Joined by Karen Merritt, an advocate for universal DPD testing and leader with the Test4DPD initiative, the discussion sheds light on how pharmacogenomics is shaping safer, more personalized cancer treatment. Together, they explore current evidence, new FDA updates, and implementation frameworks that empower pharmacists and oncology teams to prevent preventable harm through precision medicine.

Ep. 77 - Many of you know Dallas PD's Joe King as the host of the compelling podcast “ATO: Bridging the Divide” which supports the mission of the Assist the Officer Foundation. Joe joined The Dallas Police Department in 1997, starting out in the Southeast Division. We talk about why he chose law enforcement, an early critical incident that sticks with him to this day, and how he quickly was drawn to street level narcotics and gangs which he worked for 20 years.On July 7th, 2016, everything changed for Joe, the Dallas Police Department and Dallas. That night, while DPD was working an anti-police protest, a shooter opened fire on officers working the protest, killing five, injuring nine other officers and two civilians. Those we lost are known as the Dallas Five, and they include one of Joe's close friends, Senior Corporal Lorne Ahrens. Joe recounts how the tragic events of that night unfolded with much of the killing horrifyingly playing out on live television. He details the SWAT response and the hours-long standoff that resulted in the shooter's being neutralized by a bomb on a remote-controlled bomb robot.The shooting was the deadliest incident for US law enforcement since 9/ 11, surpassing the March 2009 shootings of four officers in Oakland, CA, and the November 2009 murders of four officers just south of Seattle in Lakewood, WA known as the Lakewood Four. Their deaths were preceded by the ambush murder of Seattle Police Officer Timothy Brenton less than a month earlier. I lived in the greater Seattle area at the time and experienced the devastation of this tragedy. When the Dallas Five were killed, as I tell Joe, I may have been thousands of miles away, but my heart was with Dallas.Joe shares the impact on him and his fellow officers. His journey through grief and the cumulative effect of prior traumas led him to seek help through the Assist the Officer Foundation's confidential counseling.Joe has since joined the board of the Foundation which is a non-profit that not only provides trauma support but also financial assistance to first responders in need. Joe amplifies the mission with the “ATO: Bridging the Divide” podcast for which he interviews first responders from Dallas and around the country. They share their stories of trauma and resilience and how their agencies handle wellness.Joe also helped create and serves on Dallas PD's Wellness Unit which takes a very proactive role in caring for Dallas police officers. That Unit and ATO were both put to the test following the 2024 ambush murder of Officer Darron Burks who, only a few months out of the Academy, was shot and killed while in his patrol car. Joe says, “the Wellness Unit snapped into action that night. It was really a night-and-day response from 2016 to 2024 with critical incident response.”Thank you, Joe for all you have done and for all you do.I'd like to honor The Dallas Five for their service and for paying the ultimate sacrifice to protect the rest of us:Senior Corporal Lorne AhrensOfficer Patricio Enrique ZamarripaOfficer Michael Leslie KrolSgt.

Send us a textEver found yourself mixing up avoidant and dependent personality disorders? You're not alone. This episode delivers a crystal-clear framework to distinguish between these commonly confused diagnoses—essential knowledge for passing your licensing exam.Dr. Linton Hutchinson cuts through the complexity to reveal the golden difference: motivation. While both disorders share features like interpersonal difficulties, low self-esteem, and comorbidity with anxiety and depression, they stem from fundamentally different fears. Avoidant personality disorder (APD) is driven by fear of criticism and rejection—these clients believe they're "not good enough" and withdraw to protect themselves. Dependent personality disorder (DPD), however, is fueled by fear of abandonment and self-doubt—these clients cling to relationships because they believe they "can't handle life alone."Through compelling case studies of Sarah and Mark, Dr. Hutchinson demonstrates how these patterns play out in real life. When relationships end, APD clients retreat further into isolation while DPD clients immediately seek replacements. Treatment approaches differ significantly too: APD therapy focuses on gradual exposure and challenging negative self-beliefs, while DPD treatment emphasizes building self-efficacy and independence. For your exam, remember to identify the core motivation—is the client avoiding potential hurt or seeking someone to depend on?Whether you're preparing for licensing exams or simply want to sharpen your diagnostic skills, this episode provides the clarity you need.

Episode 292 is the fifth episode of our mini-series on the Tippit murder.  David Belin, the celebrated Warren Commission attorney called  it the "Rosetta Stone" of the JFK assassination. It may very well be... just that! In  this  episode we take a step back and attempt to provide an overview of the problems in the case and the areas and issues  to be mindful of as we progress through the remainder of the series. Episode 5 gives a real peak at what is to come next. This episode also begins a  process of piecing  evidence in the Tippit case together and shedding light on critical issues surrounding the assassination investigation as a whole.  In this mini-series, we examine the evidence, and delve into the bewildering array of contradictory eyewitness testimonies, from those who struggled to identify Oswald, to others like Aquilla Clemens, who bravely reported seeing not one, but two men at the murder scene, neither resembling Oswald. And we hear of witnesses that were subsequently threatened into silence or submission. We'll review the  questionable ballistics evidence: bullets and shells of different manufacturers with marks that mysteriously vanished, and a chain of custody so compromised it renders the evidence highly suspect. And then, there's the enigma of Oswald's wallet, containing his ID and an alias, inexplicably found at the Tippit murder scene by Dallas police Captain Westbrook, even as the official story claims it was taken from Oswald upon his arrest at the Texas Theatre. We begin with a group of core episodes that cover the murder itself. And then we work our way backwards and forwards...finally capturing Lee Harvey Oswald at the Texas Theatre. This raises uncomfortable questions about the Dallas Police Department itself. We  scrutinize the actions of officers like Captain William Westbrook and Sergeant Gerald Hill, whose movements, statements, and handling of evidence on November 22nd, 1963, appear less like routine police work, and more like a deliberate effort to frame Lee Harvey Oswald. Was this simply incompetence, or did elements within the DPD actively participate in a cover-up? And what of J.D. Tippit himself? We will  cover details about his personal life: a financially burdened veteran suffering from war trauma, a man  with an alleged "dark side" and connections to the right-wing underworld, including Jack Ruby.  We'll track his frantic, agitated behavior and unusual movements in the hour before his death…movements which  suggest he was not merely on routine patrol, but actively searching for someone, possibly Oswald, under direct orders—orders that mysteriously bypassed official police radio channels. And of course…all of this has  lead some very well respected  researchers such as John Armstrong  to theorize about a "two Oswalds" scenario in this murder, where multiple individuals resembling Oswald played roles in a larger deception.

Episode 291  is the fourth  episode of our mini-series on the Tippit murder.  It is completely dedicated to the story of witness Acquilla Clemons.  David Belin, the celebrated Warren Commission attorney called this murder the "Rosetta Stone" of the JFK assassination. It may very well be... just that! In  this  episode we continue with coverage at the crime  scene and address a little known witness that the authorities sidestepped. She was discovered by Vincent Salandria working with Mark Lane at the time. Mrs. Clemons eventually (and  reluctantly) participated in several interviews... including one with Mark Lane in his quest to produce the book (and later the film) Rush to Judgement. She is considered a key but controversial witness in that her account differs markedly from the official witnesses interviewed by the authorities. That day, she saw two men at the scene, one short and kind of chunky and one who was tall. After the shooting, one  of the men motioned to the other, and then  both went in different directions down 10th street. This narrative was embraced by certain researchers including John Armstrong who integrated it with his complex theory of the two Oswalds. She is corroborated by several others including witness Frank Wright and an anonymous letter written to Playboy magazine by a person who claimed that he was also there at the scene and that at least six others witnessed the same thing. Other witnesses who were part of the official record  (such as Virginia Davis and Sam Guinyard)  may have seen elements of what she saw. These first few episodes of the mini-series provide  a deep dive into those events at the crime scene itself. There is so much more to come. In this mini-series, we examine the evidence, and delve into the bewildering array of contradictory eyewitness testimonies, from those who struggled to identify Oswald, to others like  todays focus on Aquilla Clemons, who bravely reported seeing not one, but two men at the murder scene, neither resembling Oswald. And we hear of witnesses such as Mrs. Clemons that were subsequently threatened into silence or submission. We'll review the  questionable ballistics evidence: bullets and shells of different manufacturers with marks that mysteriously vanished, and a chain of custody so compromised it renders the evidence highly suspect.

Episode 290 is the third episode of our mini-series on the Tippit murder.  David Belin, the celebrated Warren Commission attorney called  it the "Rosetta Stone" of the JFK assassination. It may very well be... just that! In  this  episode we continue with coverage at the crime  scene and begin to educate ourselves on exactly what happened at 10th and Patton.

Die aktuellen Wirtschaftsnachrichten mit Michael WeylandThema heute:   Die Servicewüste Deutschland läuft zur Hochform auf! Auch Radiomacher und ihre Familien sind im „normalen“ Leben immer mal wieder Kunden des einen oder anderen Unternehmens. Teilweise kann man sich die Unternehmen, mit denen man zusammenarbeitet, selbst aussuchen, teilweise ist man fremdbestimmt. Ich denke dabei an Käufe im Internet. Einkäufe bei lokalen Händlern werden leider immer schwieriger, weil viele Produkte einfach nicht verfügbar sind. Also werden sie bestellt, häufig bei Amazon. Bei Nichtgefallen kann man sie problemlos zurücksenden. Zumindest theoretisch. In der Praxis kann das alles andere als lustig sein, wie wir dieser Tage mit DPD erleben durften. DPD scheint für „Die piesacken Dich“ zu stehen: Wir mussten eine Bestellung zurückschicken. Leider konnten wir den Rückversender nicht frei wählen, DPD war vorgegeben. Meine Frau suchte daher eine - neuerdings DPD Pickup Paketshop genannte - Annahmestelle auf, schleppte das Paket dazu quer durch einen Supermarkt. Doch die Mitarbeiterin lehnte die Annahme ab, das Paket sei zu groß.  Eine Seite sei größer als EIN Meter!  Sie hat es extra nachgemessen!!! Aber: Alles sollte gut werden, nach Aussage der Dame im Shop würde DPD solche Pakete zuhause abholen. Der kleine Haken war, dass die von ihr aufgeschriebene Telefonnummer nicht existierte.  Die im Internet gefundene Rufnummer von DPD half auch nicht weiter, die automatisierte Hotline konnte mit der Paketnummer nichts anfangen! Die Nummer stand ja nur auf dem Rücksendeticket und war noch nicht in deren System eingelesen. Nachdem ich persönlich das Paket, das dann letztlich wieder bei uns zuhause landete, nachgemessen habe, musste ich feststellen, dass „Messen“ offenkundig NICHT zur Kernkompetenz der Dame gehört. Das Paket hat die Maße 89 X 63 X 23. ZENTIMETER, nicht Meter. Ein anderer – wirklich kompetenter Pickup Paketshop – nahm es an. Eine Mail an die DPD – Pressestelle, in der ich angeregt habe, Kurse zum Thema „Pakete messen für Anfänger“ anzubieten, wurde geflissentlich ignoriert, es kam – nicht zum ersten Mal – keine Antwort.  Vermutlich wäre auch eine Anleitung zum Lesen von E-Mails für Pressestellen überlegenswert.  Ein Abholwunsch per Kontaktformular wurde interessanterweise beantwortet. Man müsse eine andere Mailadresse anschreiben. Offenkundig ist DPD NICHT einmal in der Lage, Mails hausintern weiterzuleiten. Es ist eben die Servicewüste Deutschland!     Diesen Beitrag können Sie nachhören oder downloaden unter:

Hello again, it's me, the Ostrich that Indieventure hires to write episode descriptions while Rebecca is away. Well, I say hire. Liam actually keeps me in a big glass cube in his garage, and whenever my services are required, he uses a large hammer to release me. The entire process is inefficient (and don't even get me started on how much he's spending on glass per financial quarter), but he has started patting me on the head and telling me how good I am at writing words, so who am I to complain?   Much in the same way I am released from my prison in the event of an emergency, the Indieventure trio were forced to smash the proverbial glass that surrounds the listener mailbag format this week, following a last-minute embargo change to a game they were all planning on reviewing instead. That game was Demonschool, which was pushed back to November following the surprise announcement of the release date for Hollow Knight: Silksong.   The episode begins with a brief discussion about Team Cherry's upcoming mega hit, especially how much it has disrupted the indie game release schedule. Is Silksong the indie equivalent of Grand Theft Auto 6? That's maybe a question they answer here. I can't remember. Maybe listen to the episode yourself instead of expecting me to do it? You fool. You oaf.   Then, the trio answer YOUR questions! Who is the hottest Peggle character? What does a successful indie podcast look like? What are your earliest memories of gaming? You'll find out the answers to these (and more!) in this section.   Finally, it's Hyperfixation time. Liam is channeling Big Dad Energy after watching The Naked Gun, Rebecca has been listening to The Lion's Roar by First Aid Kit, and Rachel has been playing The Drifter.   Anyway, I'd best be off. A DPD van just delivered an enormous glass cube, and Liam is now standing outside of its door, tapping his watch and looking impatient. Speak soon!   Our music was written and performed by Ollie Newbury! Find him on Instagram at @newbsmusic. Meanwhile, you can find us at indieventurepodcast.co.uk or wherever you listen to podcasts.

August 20, 2025 ~ Franklin Hayes, Deputy Chief of Police at DPD discusses the city's new Emerald Alert System and how they are working with the federal government to reduce crime.

Imagine waking up one day and feeling completely disconnected from your own life, almost like watching a film where you're the main character, but you feel nothing. That's the reality of depersonalisation disorder, a condition as common as bipolar but tragically under-recognised.Today's guest, Nathan Dunne, knows this all too well. After a late-night swim in a freezing lake, Nathan emerged to find his identity completely gone, memories distant, emotions erased, and his sense of self shattered. In his powerful memoir, When Nothing Feels Real, Nathan's intent is to shine a light on this hidden epidemic.According to research, depersonalisation is the most misdiagnosed of all mental illnesses – it's an invisible illness, which makes it terrifying for those experiencing it. Specialists estimate that anyone has a 1 in 50 chance of developing depersonalisation and there are currently around 585,000 Australians that have been diagnosed with DPD, but being tragically misdiagnosed and misunderstood by health professionals there are likely many more affected.In this episode, Nathan shares his raw and courageous journey, from misdiagnosis and isolation to advocacy and understanding. We dive into the science, the stigma, and the very real human cost of living with DPD. If you've ever wondered what it means to lose touch with who you are, and fight your way back, this conversation is one you won't forget.What is depersonalisation disorder?Depersonalisation/derealisation disorder involves a persistent or recurring feeling of being detached from one's body or mental processes, like an outside observer of one's life (depersonalisation) and/or a feeling of being detached from one's surroundings (derealisation).How common is it?Over half a million people in Australia (2.2% of the population) and 1.3 million in the UK have experienced it, making it as prevalent as bipolar, but far more difficult to diagnose. High-profile people with depersonalisation include musicians Kid Laroi, Counting Crow's Adam Duritz and SNL's Bowen Yang.In our interview, Nathan referred to Jane Charlton 2015 article which you can find HERE.

Shoot us a Text.Episode #1088: We're kicking off the week with Elon Musk mixing politics and business, a brutal forecast for China's crowded EV market, and one unforgettable funeral send-off in Detroit.Show Notes with links:Elon Musk's creation of the “America” political party is fueling investor anxiety as Tesla faces a pivotal year marked by declining sales, shifting strategy, and mounting public scrutiny.Musk aims to influence key House and Senate races in 2026 via his new party, but analysts fear it could distract from Tesla's core business and turnaround plans.Tesla's global sales fell 13% in Q2; shares are down 20% year-to-date amid shifting investor sentiment.Consumer surveys show Tesla's brand perception continuing to erode in the U.S., ranking last among 19 EV makers in a May survey.Azoria Partners delayed its Tesla ETF launch, citing conflict with Musk's CEO responsibilities.“I encourage the Board to…evaluate whether [Musk's ambitions] are compatible with his full-time obligations,” said Azoria CEO James Fishback.A new report by AlixPartners projects that only 15 out of 129 EV and plug-in hybrid brands in China will survive through 2030, as fierce competition and overcapacity push the market toward consolidation.The surviving 15 brands are expected to control 75% of the market, each selling over 1 million units annually.Most Chinese EV makers remain unprofitable with the current market driving innovation and unsustainable pricing models; only BYD and Li Auto have achieved full-year profitability.Despite low profitability, regional governments may continue to support struggling brands to protect local economies.“This environment has driven remarkable advances...but it has also left many companies struggling,” said Stephen Dyer of AlixPartners.Meanwhile, Sony Honda Mobility's operating loss more than doubled to ¥52B ($362M) as it pushes to launch the Afeela EV this year.Darrell Thomas, a beloved Detroit car wash owner and NHRA-licensed drag racer, was known for his generosity. At his funeral, his family honored that legacy in dramatic fashion—showering the community with rose petals and $5,000 in cash from a helicopter during a public celebration of his life.The tribute shut down a stretch of Gratiot Avenue in front of Showroom Shine Express.The family says they informed police, though DPD claims they weren't told about the money drop.The FAA has launched an investigation into the aerial drop, but no action is expected from local authorities, according to Detroit Police.“This was a final expression of love from him to the community because he was a giver,” said niece Crystal Perry.Join Paul J Daly and Kyle Mountsier every morning for the Automotive State of the Union podcast as they connect the dots across car dealerships, retail trends, emerging tech like AI, and cultural shifts—bringing clarity, speed, and people-first insight to automotive leaders navigating a rapidly changing industry.Get the Daily Push Back email at https://www.asotu.com/ JOIN the conversation on LinkedIn at: https://www.linkedin.com/company/asotu/

We recorded this episode on Friday, July 4th, before the full extent of the tragedy in and around Kerr County was known.  Obviously our hearts break for the families devistated by unimaginable loss, and we keep them and the heroic first responders in our thoughts and prayers.On today's show, we start off with a new plan to use flies to combat flesh eating maggots, why we don't get in the Trinity River, a roach has injured Dan, a woman fell into a volcano, fireworks, and a fella got tased in Dallas and his mugshot is wonderful.  But first, Birthdays!The Treehouse is a daily DFW based comedy podcast and radio show.

“He didn't say he wanted to die. He said he didn't give an F about dying. That's different.” — Victoria Camille. In this powerful and deeply sobering episode of the Detroit is Different podcast, host Khary Frazier sits down with Victoria Camille of the Coalition for Police Transparency and Accountability (CPTA) to examine the disturbing details surrounding the July 12, 2024, shooting death of Sherman Lee Butler. “Nothing about this looks like self-defense to me.” — Khary Frazier. Sherman Butler was killed during an eviction at his apartment on Manderson St., near Palmer Park in Detroit. He was tased by Detroit Police officers and then fatally shot by a Wayne County Bailiff—while recovering from foot surgery and experiencing mental distress. “We all have a story. Show compassion. Sherman deserved to live.” — Victoria Camille What You'll Learn in This Episode: Detailed Analysis of the Footage: Victoria Camille and Khary Frazier analyze the DPD-released bodycam footage, breaking down how the incident escalated—despite clear protocol violations. Critical Facts Revealed: The bailiff used a DPD-issued radio improperly. DPD officers did not follow policy requiring them to control the scene. Mental health teams were called but failed to respond promptly. Tasers were used on a person visibly in mental and physical distress—against DPD policy. A DPD officer read the eviction notice, an act outside of their scope. “Nothing about this looks like self-defense to me.” — Khary Frazier “This wasn't just a policy failure; it was a moral one.” — Victoria Camille After Months of Advocacy: The community organized protests, FOIA requests (led by Taura Brown), and weekly meetings demanding transparency. On December 23, 2024, a partial video was finally released. Victoria Camille's Op-Ed led to a formal Citizen Complaint, triggering a deeper investigation by the Board of Police Commissioners' Office of the Chief Investigator. Policy Violations Found: At least 10 DPD policy violations identified by the OCI. Mental health co-response teams were eating at McDonald's while the call was active. The bailiff continued to conduct evictions after the shooting. What the Community Demands: Accountability from DPD, Wayne County Prosecutor, and the media. Clarity on reforms for Bailiffs and Officers. Passage of the Video Release Ordinance by MLK Day 2026—requiring release of all use-of-force videos within 7-37 days. Stay Informed. Stay Active.

Today we sit down with three familiar voices to the show to address an ongoing problem in the Dallas Police Department and the first responder profession. Welcome back on Sgt. Gordon Fulton and SWAT Lt Andre Taylor to have a discussion on the topic of alcohol use in the first responder community. After some incidents over the last few months the Wellness Unit wanted to reiterate the Departments commitment to helping our own and putting our people in the best position to be the best versions of themselves. In 2022 the alcohol leave policy was implemented and has been a successful tool to help our DPD family first seek help, then get help and continue their career and grow. Assistant Chief Teena Schultz, Commander of the Wellness Unit, sits in as a cohost.  For more information on the Dallas Police Wellness Unit and the Alcohol Leave policy email us atdpdwellness@dallaspolice.gov.  

Protestors took to the streets downtown on Tuesday in solidarity with demonstrations in LA over ICE raids, and more protests are planned across the metro over the weekend. But will protesters — and police — keep it peaceful? Then, Mayor Mike Johnston celebrated the “largest multi-year reduction in unsheltered homelessness in American history,” but the data leaves a lot of questions unanswered. Westword editor-in-chief Patty Calhoun joins producer Paul Karolyi and host Bree Davies to discuss whether the mayor should be touting such a milestone, what we saw at the protests, and wins and fails of the week.   Bree talked about Jax Gratton and Casa Bonita's Founders Club. Paul mentioned BusinessDen's report on the Broncos' secret land deals, hilarious local comedian Liv Carter, the AID Center closing, Jovanina's fight with the city, the new foie gras ballot effort. Patty talked about Juneteenth, Aurora City Council's new meeting policy, and Stan Kroenke's latest move on the River Mile development. We also talked about our episodes earlier this week with DPD chief Ron Thomas and AG candidate David Seligman.

Depending on who you ask, Denver is either a great place to live or a crime-ridden hellhole. So how does the Denver Police Department approach such a problem of perception versus reality? Denver Police Chief Ron Thomas has an answer. He sits down with host Bree Davies to discuss the ongoing battle of narratives around safety in the city, as well as the recent controversy around DPD's use of Flock surveillance cameras and whether ICE can access that surveillance data.

  The JFK Files Volume I : Pieces of The JFK Assassination Puzzle - Find here. The JFK Files Volume II : Pieces of the JFK Assassination Puzzle - Find here. Jeff's recent article on Kennedy's and King - The JFK Files Volume II: Pieces of the Assassination Puzzle Lee Harvey Oswald, A Lone Gunman? Find here. 20 years ago, Jeff was a managing editor for the Hot Springs Village Noise newspaper, a retirement centre in Arkansas. When Jeff relocated to Texas, he became absorbed in the JFK assassination research. Jeff would occasionally draft small articles about his JFK findings and send them into the Hot Springs Village Noise. Public interest in the retirement community was sparked with people requesting more Kennedy write ups from Jeff. In 2021 it was decided a monthly column would be written by Jeff, titled "The JFK Files". Chris Gallop encouraged Jeff to publish a collection of Jeff's articles and his interviews. DPD radio transcripts show Officer L.L. Hill at Cobb Stadium investigating a sighting of a man with a rifle on Nov. 22/63. When questioned by Jeff years later, Mr. Hill denied that he was ever at Cobb Stadium on the day of JFK's assassination. Researcher Gary Shaw located the license number and registration of the suspect at Cobb Stadium, both were fictitious. Jeff brought up these details to Mark Lane, but hasn't seen any evidence of an investigation into the matter. Jeff wrote a three part article on Gaeton Fonzi and his incredible research for George magazine. "The Last Investigation" by Gaeton Fonzi, with foreword by Dick Russell. Find here. Marie Fonzi chatted with Jeff about Gaeton so he could learn about the more intimate and personal side of Gaeton. Gaeton and Marie danced around their kitchen after Senator Schweiker called Gaeton to solve the Kennedy assassination. While spending time and researching with Mary Ferrell, Jeff came across a CIA document that fascinated him. Students at Arlington U in Texas, notified authorities - Russell W. McLarry had made threatening comments against JFK. Jeff was able to locate and interview Russell McLarry, and question him about his arrest experience. Russell had to come up with bail money, and go through the court process, in order to clear his name in the investigation. McLarry was arrested weeks after the assassination. What do Black Op Radio listeners think of that? JFK Pallbearer Tim Cheek was interviewed, giving insight into the events he participated in the night before JFK's funeral. Jeff interviewed DPD Officer Lee Sanders regarding HSCA officers attempting to recreate the shootings from the 6th floor. Sanders told Jeff that none of the officers believed Oswald shot Kennedy from the 6th floor window. Senator Schweiker "there appeared to be fingerprints of the intelligence agencies all over JFK's assassination". CIA operatives were in the court room after Lee Harvey Oswald's arrest in New Orleans in August of 1963. Len & Jeff discuss different players & aspects of the JFK assassination cover up. Len feels the CIA are just the foot soldiers for the intelligence community, the masters are entities lie Simon & Cromwell. Dulles, Lansdale, Cabell brothers, Joannides and the 6th Floor Museum are all complicit in the cover up of JFK's murder. Anna Paulina Luna has specifically asked for the Joannides file from the CIA, the CIA has not complied. Why? Jeff interviewed a great niece of Guy Bannister who felt Oswald was in Bannister's office being "observed" for Hoover. CIA didn't interview Lee Oswald after he returned to the United States with his Russian bride after "defecting"? When Trump was ready to release the JFK files four years ago, something happened, and the next day, he rescinded. Why? From the top down, the government agencies have tried to keep a lid on the truth of JFK's assassination. Many people who have "found" or wanted to release information they...

Send us a textStruggling to master personality disorders for your upcoming licensure exam? Look no further than this deep dive into Dependent Personality Disorder (DPD) – a condition you might encounter on test day.We meticulously break down the DSM diagnostic criteria, requiring at least five symptoms from a pattern that includes difficulty making everyday decisions, needing others to assume responsibility for major life areas, and fears of being left to care for oneself. You'll learn to recognize the classic clinical presentation: clients who consistently defer to others, express intense abandonment fears, and often tolerate mistreatment rather than risk being alone. Most importantly, we clarify how to differentiate DPD from its common look-alikes like Borderline, Avoidant, and Histrionic Personality Disorders –  distinctions that frequently appear as exam questions.The episode explores DPD's developmental trajectory, typically rooted in childhood experiences with overprotective or authoritarian parenting that restricted age-appropriate autonomy. We examine how cultural factors influence diagnosis and discuss common comorbidities including anxiety disorders, depression, and substance use. The second half provides a comprehensive review of evidence-based treatments, from cognitive-behavioral approaches that challenge core beliefs about helplessness to schema therapy addressing early maladaptive patterns. You'll learn specific interventions like gradual exposure to independent decision-making, assertiveness training, and anxiety management techniques.Whether you're preparing for your exam or working with dependent clients in clinical practice, this episode delivers everything you need to understand this complex condition.

On a hot summer day in Dallas Texas, in an upscale Dallas restaurant and bar, a failure of a man would commit the largest mass murder in the City's history by shooting seven people, killing six. Just after midnight on June 29th, 1984, Abdelkrim Belachheb took six lives at the Iannis Restaurant and Bar as he had an argument with one patron, Marcell Ford, as she turned away his advances. He then would leave the bar and return with a gun and committed an act that would rock Dallas, alter the victim's families lives forever, and expose a legal loophole in the State of Texas. This breakdown of these murders will detail the suspect's life prior to entering the United States on a false Visa and show his lifetime of aggression and violence that would lead him from Morocco to a Dallas Texas nightclub. In 1984 it was not a capital death penalty crime to murder one of more persons, a huge oversight in Texas State law. Retired Dallas Police Officer Tom Hall was the first in the door at the club after the shooting and in this episode he gives us a firsthand account. Fugitive Unit Sgt, Marcell Ford, was the niece of the suspects first victim and she bears her name in her aunt's honor. Sgt. Ford sat with us to talk about this events impact on her family that would have a ripple effect through generations. We want to dedicate this episode to the victims that lost their lives in Dallas Texas, 1984.   Marcell Ford (deceased) Linda Lowe (deceased) Janice Smith (deceased) Ligia Koslowski (deceased) Joe Menasi (deceased) Frank Parker (deceased) John McNeil (wounded) Sources used: DPD case file The novel, Worse than Death, by Gary M. Lavergne   Incident: June 29th, 1984, 12801 Midway Rd, Dallas Texas Suspect would enter Ianni's Restaurant and Club and shot seven patrons, six of that would die.  

  The Death of Tippit - Part 1 The Death of Tippit - Part 2 The Death of Tippit - Part 3 Find previous articles by John at Jim DiEugenio's website, Kennedys and King.com. John finds the government's theory that JFK was shot by Oswald from the rear hard to believe. The Zapruder film proves that John Kennedy was shot from the front. John found a DPD radio recording from November 22, 1963 on Youtube. Listen Here Recorded 11/22/63 communication was omitted from the Dallas Police Department transcripts. Tippit's last call in was said to be at Lancaster & 8th, but Tippit actually said Lansing St. & 8th. There is in fact a Lansing St. just 2 blocks away from Lancaster & 8th in Dallas. 10 minutes prior, Officer J.L. Angell had reported he was "still at Lansing & 8th" Coincidence? Realizing that Angell's call was deliberately not reported, John was inspired to research further. Sgt. Bud Owens was supposed to be Tippit's supervisor that day but Sgt. Hugh Davis took over. Owens leaves out important facts & timeline of events in his Warren Commission testimony. Was there a covert change of guard with the Dallas Police from Owens to Davis on 11/22/63? How did the many different DPD officers get to the scene of the Tippit shooting? Why were there so many misplaced Dallas Police Department officers on 11/22/63? Warren Commission's inventory of police officers is not accurate. Many discrepancies. Officer Parker was supposed to be manning road blocks in Garland, but on a Oak Cliff viaduct? Officer Lewis was supposed to be at Love Field area but he was at another one of the viaducts. The WC states Officer Ronald Nelson was in Dealey Plaza at 12:30 but he too was at a viaduct. Post assassination story involved Tippit being at Gloco, readjusting the time of his visit. Why? Tippit was described by as arriving at Glaco shortly after the shots were fired in Dealey Plaza. John does not believe "Badgeman" was a Dallas Police officer or that you can properly ID him. Office Harry Olsen, who knew Ruby, was also documented to be located at Lansing & 8th. John doesn't believe any members of the Dallas Police Department were firing at JFK. Members of the Dallas police would have helped the shooters safely escape Dealey Plaza. John is curious if Tippit turned after JFK shot, forcing the conspirators to eliminate him? Why were so many of the DPD were in the area, before the assassination had happened? Officer Gerry Hill leaves City Hall about the time Oswald is declared a person of interest. Photos show Officer Gerry Hill arriving at the TSBD in car #207 about 12:50 PM. Earline Roberts, Oswald's landlord, testified DPD car #207 pulled up outside her home. Officer Gerry Hill does not have an alibi for after 1 PM. How could Oswald get from his rooming house to the Tippit murder scene so quickly? Did DPD car #207 drive Oswald to the Tippit murder scene? Did the Rambler in Dealey Plaza? Westbrook arrived after Tippit was shot, yet somehow Westbrook arrives at the scene twice? Capt. W. R. Westbrook's claims can be refuted by other officer's testimonies or by reporters. Car #207 was given great interest due to boarding house landlord Earline Robert's testimony. Len applauds John on his fantastic detective work. Things are constantly making more sense. How many coincidences can you have? Timelines not lining up? False testimonies? So many lies!  

How do you rise to the top at an unprecedented pace? Police Chief Todd Bettison did just that—ascending through the ranks of the Detroit Police Department, serving as Deputy Mayor, and now leading DPD as Chief. In this episode, he shares key mindset shifts, the importance of mentorship, how his experiences as Deputy Mayor have made him a better Police Chief, why taking risks on yourself is the only way forward and so much more. Whether you're in law enforcement, leadership, or just want to achieve more in life—this episode is packed with growth insights you don't want to miss.

Gerald Posner is still pushing the "Oswald did it" lies during a recent interview regarding the JFK files. Len thanks Paul for his earnest efforts to provide quality research to the public & JFK researchers. People tune into shows like Black Op Radio, Joe Rogan & Jimmy Dore to hear authentic research. Attorneys Burt Griffin & Leon Hubert, leads for the Warren Commission's investigation into Ruby. Paul found an 11 page memo when researching while writing "Death To Justice" Was Jack Ruby connected to Lee Harvey Oswald? Did they collaborate together? Griffin memo to J. Lee. Rankin reveals the men had many unanswered questions, desiring more answers. Griffin really latched on to DPD Sgt. Patrick Dean, feeling that he was highly suspicious. Dean was really the catalyst for the charge of premeditation for the charge of murder against Ruby. March 24, 1964 Sgt. Patrick Dean was questioned by attorney Burt Griffin for the Warren Commission. The next day, March 25th, Dean filed a complaint against Griffin, who was then ordered back to D.C.. Dean was basically the star witness for the Dallas Police Department in Jack Ruby’s trial. When a Canadian from Victoria called in to say they had footage of the assassination, Dean took the call. Dean tripped himself up when Griffin questioned Dean about the door that lead from the Annex building. Dean was in charge of the security for Dallas City Hall basement in preparation of Oswald’s transfer. Why did the DPD & the Warren Commission protect Sgt. Patrick Dean? Dean was the one who assigned two reserve officers at the entrance way that Ruby utilized. How did Dean indirectly remove these two reserve officers from the basement? Ruby's business partner, Bertha Cheek, was sister in law to Oswald's landlord at the rooming house. Why did Jack Ruby kill Oswald? Griffin & Hubert recommended that Oswald's murder should have it's own chapter in the WC Report. Railroading Griffin & Hubert's investigation basically ended the probe into Ruby & Oswald’s relationship. Dean gave another statement to the Warren Commission, but in D.C., where was he was basically apologized to. In the middle of June or July of 1964, Dean personally asked to have a polygraph test. Unbelievably, even with Dean writing his own questions, he failed his own polygraph test! The results to Dean's failed polygraph test were never given to the Warren Commission! Declared lost! These notes were unavailable for the HSCA's investigation, Dean was called before the HSCA again. Although questioned, the questioning was about how Dean was questioned by the Warren Commission in ‘64. Why did Dean say in his interviews to media on Nov. 24th that he'd seen Ruby enter down the Main St. Ramp? The lawyers wanted to look into the anti-Castro & Dallas Police Dept. connections of Ruby's. Dean took a trip to the third floor of City Hall where he got instructions to take Sorrels to question Jack Ruby. Dean himself appears to be an example compartmentalization on an individual. On the evening of November 24th, after the shooting, there was a meeting back at Jack Ruby's apartment. Attorney Tom Howard was at this meeting. Howard was also present in the basement when Ruby shot Oswald. George Senator, Ruby's roommate & business partner, did not discuss the meeting of the 24th when interviewed.

Today we get to hear from a guy that joined the Dallas Police Department but also served as a soldier in the United States Army. This story begins with this guests journey from growing up as an Army brat to enlisting himself and joining the 10th Mountain Infantry Division and on a path to fighting terrorist in Afghanistan. Tyler fit in as soldier, and a leader and on July 5th, 2006 all of his skills, resiliency, and faith were put to the test as his unit was ambushed in Afghanistan, and this day would change his life forever. His path to DPD will be told in this episode as well as his passion to help and serve fellow first responders in buying their new homes. Tyler and Frontline Realty started a program called Heroes Helping Heroes and this group has helped many military and first responders in making their life's biggest purchase, their home. Lt. Wade Dews sits in as a cohost to help tell this story.   www.frontlinerealestateteam.com Critical Incident: July 5th 2006 Tyler's unit was ambushed by Taliban fighters in Afghanistan that resulted in Tyler receiving life threatening injuries.

Let's dive into today's episode and embark on this incredible journey of motivation and growth together! Ok my change warriors, today, we are diving into a crucial topic that affects countless individuals: it's called…dependent personality disorder. It's time to shed light on this challenge and explore ways to break free from its grasp. So, grab a cup of inspiration, because we're about to embark on a journey of empowerment and growth!First, we need to understand what this dependent personality disorder is.  Dependent personality disorder (DPD) is a type of anxious personality disorder. People with DPD often feel helpless, submissive and incapable of taking care of themselves. They may have trouble making simple decisions. Now in my book, I don't believe in disorders.  I believe these labels are just challenges and opportunities for growth even though it can feel like a never-ending struggle, where the fear of independence and the need for constant reassurance can hold us back from living fulfilling lives. In this episode we will explore this challenging condition and discuss practical tips to break free from its grip.It is important to seek professional help to understand the underlying causes of dependent personality disorder and work towards overcoming it. Therapy sessions can provide a safe space to explore our fears and insecurities and develop healthier coping mechanisms. Today I am going to give you some things to practice stopping this constant need for approval and reassurance from others.LET'S GO!Tune in for some thoughts and ideas on how to break free from your approval nightmares.Stay focused, stay positive, and always have fun.Coach Maria 

MUSICLinkin Park are set to make a big announcement today in front of a live audience, but beforehand those in attendance had to sign a waiver. The waiver states that there is an agreement to be transported to and from the venue.

Thus, it would be harder for people to track down exactly where it is happening and perhaps discern something in advance from the location.Green Day were pulled from the stage for security reasons two verses into their fifth song, "Longview," last night at Comerica Park in Detroit.
