Nightfall With a DogmanAfter fifteen years as a patrol officer and SWAT operator, a veteran responds to a frantic 911 call on a stormy October night: an elderly rancher reports a monstrous black creature—tall, fast, with eyes like fire—mauling his livestock. Arriving at the isolated property, the officer finds the chicken coop and lamb pen in savage ruin: birds shredded beyond recognition, six lambs mangled with impossible force, their bodies twisted and torn. Massive bipedal tracks, nearly seventeen inches long with clawed toes, confirm something unnatural walked upright through the mud. Drawn into the black pines by the old man's terrified warning that “it watches,” the officer confronts the entity: a hulking shadow with glowing red eyes seven feet high, radiating pure hate. A deep growl vibrates through his chest, followed by an inhuman shriek that silences the storm; the creature vanishes as quickly as it appeared. Backup searches yield nothing more, and the incident is logged as a routine “suspicious circumstance / possible livestock mauling.” The old man flees, abandoning the cursed ranch to rot. Hunters now avoid the woods, and the officer remains haunted, knowing those fiery eyes may still linger in the darkness, watching.Join my Supporters Club for $4.99 per month for exclusive stories:https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/what-if-it-s-true-podcast--5445587/support

OREGON DIVORCEE AGNES Anne “Annie” LeRoi arrived in Phoenix in the first few months of 1931 with her best friend and roommate, schoolteacher Hedvig “Sammy” Samuelson. They were climate refugees: Sammy had tuberculosis, and at the time the only cure for “consumption” was a dry climate and rest. Back then, many patients with TB waited until they were so far gone that the climate couldn't save them; essentially, they moved to Arizona to die. Sammy wasn't one of them; her case was mild. But, although she didn't know it, she, too, was moving to Arizona to die. She had less than nine months to live. So did Annie. Neither one of them would die of tuberculosis, though.

Episode #499: Paul Vrieze, a Dutch journalist and PhD researcher specializing in Myanmar's Spring Revolution, has observed the country's political trajectory for over 15 years. Drawn to Myanmar's opening in 2012 after working in Cambodia, he joined The Irrawaddy as its first foreign editor, during a period of political reforms under Thein Sein. The February 2021 coup abruptly ended the democratic transition. Nonviolent mass protests impressed the world but were met by brutal crackdowns, prompting a rapid shift to armed resistance. Vrieze saw this as a rare case of escalation without major fragmentation. He notes a common protest dynamic: repression is experienced as a personal and communal assault, a “slippery slope” leading self-defense to evolve into armed struggle. This dynamic played itself out in Myanmar. Armed resistance in the country developed three patterns: spontaneous rural uprisings, organized ethnic acts of resistance, and individuals fleeing to the border who begin training with ethnic resistance organizations (EROs). The NUG adapted to events by formally labeling many of the emerging local resistance groups as People's Defense Forces (PDFs) and by proposing the idea of a Federal Army. However, ethnic resistance organizations (EROs) resisted bringing their forces under a single chain of command, preferring to maintain control in their own areas. This has left tensions and limits on coordinated action, raising the question of international recognition, which depends on territorial control, national standing, and functioning governance. The NUG has the broader political mandate but lacks secure in-country presence, while EROs have effective administrations yet are still regarded as regional rather than national actors. Vrieze believes unity, inclusivity, and a shared political vision are crucial for victory, warning that without them, success will be far harder to achieve. Fortunately, the movement has been able to maintain unity across ethnic divides so far, despite political differences and Chinese attempts to broker a ceasefire between EROs and the junta. He is hopeful that this unity will be maintained, and strengthened.

Pisces season brings us to the final waters of the zodiac.This is a time when the edges between worlds soften — when intuition heightens, dreams become louder, and many of us feel a little more sensitive to life itself.In this episode, rather than focusing on a traditional astrological forecast or the many planetary transits moving through the sky, we explore Pisces as an archetypal teacher.What does this season invite us to feel?What qualities does Pisces awaken in the body, psyche, and spirit?And how can we move with this current rather than resisting it?We begin by exploring the foundations of Pisces — its element, modality, and place as the final sign of the zodiac — and why this position in the wheel carries such profound meaning.Pisces is the place where everything dissolves back into the great ocean of life before the cycle begins again.Because of this, many people notice themselves feeling:• Dreamy, floaty or a bit spacey• More tired or energetically porous• Emotionally sensitive and deeply empathic• Overwhelmed by noise, stimulation, or the pace of the world• Drawn toward solitude, quiet, and reflectionPisces season also opens the door to the dream realm, imagination, intuition, and the wider natural world — reminding us that life is far more mysterious than the rational mind often allows.But like all archetypes, Pisces carries both gifts and shadows. When its energy becomes imbalanced, we may find ourselves slipping into escapism, numbing out, or dissolving healthy boundaries.In this conversation, we explore how to move through this season with awareness — honouring the call for rest, protecting our energetic boundaries, and listening more closely to the quiet whispers of the inner world.Pisces ultimately reminds us of something ancient and simple:We are not separate from life.We are part of the same dreaming ocean.And sometimes the invitation is simply to soften… and remember WHAT we are.EPISODE RESOURCES:Episode: 141 Womb Oracle Dreaming: Feminine Dreamwork with the Land, Body & Soul with Stella Porta: Spotify or AppleSong: Silent Spirit - King Gizz (they're not on Spotify anymore)If this episode landed for you - let me know!Drop a comment or shoot me a DM and share you experience of Pisces Season!Remember to subscribe, rate and review - it's so very much appreciated!

Have you ever wondered why some people seem particularly drawn to conspiracy theories, even when the evidence doesn't support them? New research suggests the answer may have less to do with intelligence or critical thinking, and more to do with how people naturally process information. A study published in the journal Cognitive Processing found that people who strongly prefer order, patterns, and structured explanations may be more likely to find conspiracy theories appealing. What's interesting is that this can happen even when those people are perfectly capable of scientific reasoning. The appeal of a simple explanation The world is complicated, events are messy, unpredictable, and often confusing. Conspiracy theories offer something very tempting: a tidy explanation for chaos. They connect dots, assign motives, and turn uncertainty into a clear story. For people who naturally look for structure and patterns, that kind of explanation can feel satisfying. Researchers describe this thinking style as “systemising.” Systemising is the tendency to interpret the world by identifying patterns and rules that explain how things work. People who score highly on systemising often enjoy solving puzzles, analysing systems, or finding logical frameworks that make sense of complex information. In the study, researchers looked at more than 550 participants and identified different thinking styles. They found that people with strong systemising tendencies were more likely to believe conspiracy theories, even if they demonstrated strong reasoning skills. The reason? Conspiracy theories often present events in a way that appears highly structured and internally consistent. Loose ends get tied together. Coincidences become evidence. Complex events get reduced to a clear narrative. The problem is that once someone adopts a structured explanation, it can be difficult to let go of it. Why beliefs can stick, even when new evidence appears Participants who strongly preferred structured explanations were less likely to change their views when presented with new evidence. This doesn't necessarily mean someone is irrational. Instead, it reflects how their brain prefers to organise information. The desire for a coherent system can sometimes override the willingness to question the system itself. Why this matters Conspiracy theories aren't just harmless speculation. They can erode trust in institutions, influence public health decisions, increase anxiety, damage relationships, and spread misinformation. Understanding why people believe them is therefore important. The research suggests that simply presenting facts may not always be enough to change someone's mind. If conspiracy beliefs satisfy deeper psychological needs, like the desire for order and predictability, then addressing misinformation may require more than just correcting the record. It may also require recognising how different people make sense of the world. A reminder about human thinking Perhaps the most important takeaway from this research is that belief in conspiracy theories isn't always about poor reasoning. Sometimes it's about the human desire to make sense of uncertainty. Our brains are pattern-finding machines, most of the time that ability helps us navigate the world. Understanding that tendency may be one of the most powerful tools we have for recognising misinformation, both in others, and in ourselves. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Today, we are excited to welcome entrepreneur Megan Gross, founder of The Bonsoir, a boutique events firm that curates high-touch small events to bring startups and investors together. Megan is currently based in the San Francisco Bay Area and is expanding into South Florida. In this episode, she shares her journey, highlighting small, personalized events as the future of business relationships. Megan's Journey After college, Megan moved to Las Vegas to work for nightclubs, restaurants, and a major pool party. Drawn by a lifelong dream to live in Paris, she worked at the exclusive club Matignon near the Champs-Élysées as a VIP host. Although it failed to unfold as planned, it redirected her to the Bay Area, where she immersed herself in the startup ecosystem. After working on a platform of extraordinary experiences and then at Mastercard, she launched The Bonsoir as a niche, designing intimate gatherings for founders and investors,  blending hospitality and bold creativity. Bold Risks Megan believes in trusting her instincts and taking big risks, even without every detail in place. Her move to Paris and then into entrepreneurship were not calculated step-by-step strategies. They were decisions rooted in her conviction. Things did not always work out as expected, but each step redirected her toward something more aligned with her. A Competitive Advantage From the years she spent working at nightclubs, restaurants, and large-scale pool parties, Megan learned relationship skills that corporate settings seldom provide. Reading a room, remembering names, managing personalities, and creating the right energy are all directly applicable to business. As technology and automation grow, these human-centered skills become even more valuable in a digital-first world, where authentic connections truly stand out. Building Without Traditional Frameworks Launching her company without agency or corporate training forced Megan to create her own systems. Although it initially felt like a disadvantage, it allowed her to innovate beyond standard industry templates. She sources vendors from unexpected places, leverages global relationships, and builds unconventional events. The Purpose–People–Process Framework Connection can be engineered when purpose, people, and processes align. Purpose defines the specific goal of the gathering. People determine who must be in the room—and who should not. The process covers every touchpoint, from invitation wording to seating charts to follow-up. When those circles intersect, connections form intentionally rather than by accident. The Gather Method Megan's GATHER method is an acronym for her six event strategy components: Guest List, Atmosphere, Timing, High Touch, End Game, and Relationships. The Guest List is the most critical decision. Atmosphere sets the emotional tone. Timing ensures real interaction, and High Touch keeps her experiences personal and intentional. The End Game clarifies measurable outcomes, and Relationships are Megan's ultimate objective, with the event serving as the vehicle instead of the destination. Why Smaller Is More Powerful Megan believes intimacy drives impact. Her ideal event has fewer than 20 people, as that allows depth of conversation and meaningful follow-ups. Instead of a massive gathering, she recommends smaller, recurring events that build layered relationships over time. Scarcity and selectivity tend to elevate perceived value and strengthen engagement. Scaling a High-Touch Business Scaling micro-events presents unique challenges. Megan addressed this by productizing her dinner format, standardizing structure while keeping personalization intact. She built operational systems and hired leadership support, even when stepping away from production felt difficult. Delegation allowed her to grow without compromising on quality. Why AI Increases the Demand for In-Person Events As AI accelerates digital interaction, in-person gatherings become more valuable. When it becomes increasingly difficult to distinguish what is real online, physical presence can build trust. Technology may automate communication, but it cannot replicate a shared human experience. BIO: Megan Gross is the founder of The Bon Soir, a boutique events firm that brings together investors and startups through smart, high-touch events that build trust and accelerate deal flow. Her training comes from running high-pressure nightclubs in Las Vegas. She later worked at a unicorn startup acquired by Mastercard, helped launch Mastercard's global Priceless Experiences platform, led a global community dining initiative at Airbnb, and built The Bon Soir into a go-to event partner for venture firms. She is based in the San Francisco Bay Area, hosts The Supper Club in San Francisco, curates private dinners for funds, and produces one of the largest events in the VC platform community.

About how one's perceptions might change when we shine a light on the cycle of what's happening right now.   Kate's original fascination with astrology and use of tarot as tools for creative writing and character development led her to explore how tools of divination to prompt reflection while laughing her way through her own hero's journey.    If you feel inspired to walk with her ... you can find Kate at kateeastridge.com  or @kate.eastridge on Instagram.     About Katrine Waugh: Katrine Waugh, she/her, is devoted to the consciousness of night, the liminal spaces which fertilize our waking moments. As an Astrologer and Artist she's passionate about helping people to remember their innate belonging to this universe. She believes that each revolution of breath is a birth which offers a return to our sacred inner flame which can never be extinguished. She is the Mother of two feisty girls and runs a House keeping business called "Mama's Twelfth House Cleaning". She considers all of her roles in life to be training for deeper understanding of how to hold space for reciprocity and care.

For this Out Takes, we celebrated the release of two highly anticipated queer films for February that celebrate the diversity of our community, the importance of representation and the ability for LGBTQIA+ folks to tell our own stories in an authentic way while still been given the opportunity to have them out in the mainstream. First up was ‘Jimpa’, the latest film from Adelaide based writer, producer and director Sophie Hyde. Inspired by Hyde’s own life with a direct link to her gay activist father Jim, this film is a multi-generational queer family story starring award-winning favourites Olivia Colman and John Lithgow plus it introduces us to the extraordinary talents of Aud Mason-Hyde. Along with our review of ‘Jimpa’, we were delighted to be joined in the JOY studios by Sophie and Hyde where we covered a wide range of topics and themes including how this very personal story developed into a feature film, how audiences have responded to the performances and characters, plus we discuss the connection that their father and grandfather Jim Hyde had to JOY and his impact in the queer community. We then reviewed ‘Pillion’, the debut feature film from British director Harry Lighton that tells the story of Colin (Harry Melling) who lives a small, carefully ordered life with his parents until Ray (Alexander Skarsgård), the charismatic leader of a gay biker gang, claims him as his submissive. Drawn into Ray’s world of leather, ritual, and unspoken codes, Colin awakens to intoxicating new dimensions of desire and belonging and the film traces the ecstatic and uncomfortable contours of a dom-sub relationship that evolves into something far deeper – a meditation on identity, control, and the unsettling shapes devotion takes when boundaries dissolve. The post ‘Jimpa’ with special guests Sophie Hyde and Aud Mason Hyde plus ‘Pillion’ appeared first on Out Takes.

Cities and Memory - remixing the sounds of the world

Drawn to the Circle began with a field recording of a boar tusk horn calling people into a full circle. The sound comes from Malekula Island in Vanuatu, performed by Melteg Ike and Mal Maru of the Big Nambas cultural group, and recorded by Raymond Clausen in 1962. When I first heard it, I was struck by how two players became one sound. It felt less like music and more like an invitation — a call to gather.The idea of the circle stayed with me. A circle has no front or back, and no one stands above another. Across cultures, people meet in circles to listen, to share, and to mark time together. In this recording, the call draws people inward, toward community. I spent time researching the Big Nambas people and the island of Malekula, using archival material from the Pitt Rivers Museum. Looking at landscapes and objects helped me imagine the life around the sound. The piece came together quickly after that, shaped by thoughts about what connects us as humans. I found myself wondering how a call rooted in one community could arrive here with me in Athens, and how it might speak to my own sense of belonging.When composing, I treated the field recording as something living. The cello and voices follow its texture and tone, moving with it rather than leading it. My partner and baby daughter participated in the process and helped me record some of the percussion. Their presence became part of the piece, making the act of recording feel communal — less like producing a track, and more like standing in a circle together and responding to the call.Working with this recording has been a privilege. It has reminded me how deeply human the act of gathering is, and how sound can carry that impulse across place, time, and generation."Merer Pake": nDavu trumpet signal reimagined by Ana Habesh.———Part of the project A Century of Sounds, reimagining 100 sounds covering 100 years from the collections of the Pitt Rivers Museum at the University of Oxford.

We sit with Jeffery Feczko, owner and guide of To The Gills in Baja California Sur, Mexico. From fly tying at a young age to guiding fisheries across the globe, Jeffery has built a life shaped by travel, salt, and fish. His twenties took him from Alaska, earning his 100-ton USCG Master Captain's license, to destinations like the Seychelles, where guiding iconic atolls eventually led to burnout and a realization that living in waders year-round wasn't the life he wanted. Drawn back to warm water and shore-based fishing, he went to Baja California Sur, where he now guides year-round in one of the most diverse and demanding fisheries on the planet. In this episode, we talk about why Baja stands above everywhere else he's fished - the people, culture, food, and the mighty, mighty roosterfish.  GO FISHING WITH JEFFERY: https://tothegills.net/ Follow Jeffery on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/tothegills/?hl=en  Find his WICKED flies: https://farbank.com/collections/rio-signature-tyer-jeffrey-feczko  ----- HOW TO HELP SO FLY: Please go leave us a review on APPLE PODCASTS.

In this special solo episode, Amy Rowlinson celebrates episode 500 of Focus on WHY by sharing seven powerful truths about purpose, fulfilment and meaningful success. Drawn from nearly six years and 500 authentic conversations, these insights reveal what consistently matters beneath achievement and ambition. Purpose isn't something you think your way into—it's revealed through action, alignment and lived experience.

Ask yourself: why does this matter to me and who does it help?   KEY TAKEAWAY "You don't need to have it all figured out. Your WHY doesn't need to be grand. It's OK if your WHY is simple. Purpose isn't about doing more—it's about doing what matters.

This week we chat with Felix Levine!Felix is an entrepreneur, investor, and media operator who began his career in podcasting back in 2019—recording interviews straight out of his freshman-year dorm room at UC Santa Barbara.After transferring to Boston University, where he earned a dual degree in Business Law and Management, Felix spent his college years traveling the country interviewing everyone from high-growth founders and world champion athletes to creators, reality TV stars, and even figures from the criminal underworld.Drawn early to entrepreneurship and venture, Felix knew a traditional career path wasn't for him. After graduating, he went all-in on the podcast, which eventually led to the launch of Lynx, an events and tech company. While Lynx ultimately failed, it became one of his most formative experiences and clarified his desire to operate on the investor side of the table.Around that time, Felix met his business partner Brett and joined Bulletpitch, where he became a partner focused on bringing creators onto cap tables and bridging the gap between venture capital and the creator economy. Today, Felix is helping build a next-generation venture platform—one that uses creator influence not just for deal flow, but as a core de-risking mechanism for early-stage companies.✨ This episode is presented by Brex.Brex: brex.com/trailblazerspodThis episode is supported by RocketReach, Gusto, OpenPhone & Athena.RocketReach: rocketreach.co/trailblazersGusto: gusto.com/trailblazersQuo: Quo.com/trailblazersAthena: athenago.me/Erica-WengerFollow Us!Felix LevineOlder Hotter Wiser @thetrailblazerspod: Instagram, YouTube, TikTokErica Wenger: @erica_wenger

Yahya Abdul-Mateen II and Ben Kingsley bring an unexpected buddy dynamic that makes the show feel smaller in scale but bigger in personality. Shua has been watching Disneyland: Hand Crafted on Disney+, a heartfelt documentary by Leslie Iwerks highlighting the artistry and innovation behind Disney Imagineering. It's a thoughtful tribute to creativity, legacy, and the magic built by hand.     Sci-Fi Saturdays -  This week on Sci-Fi Saturdays Jay talks about Ghost in the Shell (2017).  Despite the controversy surrounding casting, this live-action adaptation delivers striking cyberpunk visuals, philosophical undertones, and slick sci-fi action.

The guys draft their animated "Hall Pass" dream dates, complete with ridiculous vehicles, over-the-top adventures, themed dinners, and end-of-night finales that range from volcanic lairs to jazz-filled swamp picnics. It's equal parts sweet, absurd, and deeply committed to the bit.   Then things go multiversal as iconic movie couples get scrambled in a romantic crossover event no one asked for but everyone secretly needs. From cyberpunk warriors to action heroes and sitcom sweethearts, the mashups spiral into hilarious hypotheticals filled with explosions, existential dread, and neon heart emojis. It's Valentine's Day, Enjoy Stuff style.   Which animated character would you pick? Who would be a good mashup? Let us know!

In this heart-opening episode of Asked and Answered by Soul, host Jennifer Urezzio sits down with Maureen Franks, also known as The Mandala Lady, to explore how creativity is more than artistic expression — it's a portal to Soul connection. Maureen shares how a transformative Reiki session and a trip to Egypt reawakened her artistic purpose, ultimately leading her to mandalas as both a spiritual and intuitive practice. The two dive into the unexpected power of coloring as a way to quiet the mind, access inner wisdom, and spark intuitive insight. Whether you're navigating purpose, awakening your creativity, or simply longing to reconnect with joy, this episode offers a tangible practice — coloring mandalas — that opens space for truth to emerge. Key Takeaways: Coloring can bypass the ego and unlock intuitive guidance. Creativity is not about perfection — it's about presence. Mandalas serve as energetic mirrors, helping you hear your Soul more clearly. Don't miss the story behind their co-created Soul Mandala Coloring Book, blending sacred geometry and Soul Language into a transformative experience. You can learn more about Maureen at⁠ https://themandalalady.com/⁠. About Maureen Maureen's artistic journey began in childhood, rooted in a deep love for creative expression. Although her early career took her into computer science and web design, a transformative Reiki session in 1998 and a life-changing trip to Egypt in 1999 reawakened her creative spirit and led her to the world of mandalas. Drawn to their sacred geometry and symbolic depth, she discovered mandalas as both an artistic practice and an intuitive portal for insight and reflection. Now known as The Mandala Lady, Maureen shares her gifts through art and intuitive readings, inviting others to remember their Divine wholeness through the timeless symbolism of the circle.
