In August 1970, 26-year-old schoolteacher Linda Jane Phillips, daughter of Kaufman County School Superintendent Jimmy Phillips, vanished while driving home from a Dallas wedding party. Two days later, her mutilated body was discovered in a hedgerow near Post Oak, Texas.The case shocked Kaufman County—a quiet, rural community east of booming Dallas—and became one of North Texas's most haunting unsolved murders. Investigators found her car abandoned along Farm Road 1641, its window shattered, her clothing scattered along the roadside for nearly a mile. Despite hundreds of volunteers searching and an intensive investigation led by Sheriff Roy Brockway, no suspect was found.Over the following decade, a wave of similarly brutal killings of women swept across North and East Texas. Lawmen speculated about a single “lust killer” operating around Dallas, connecting Linda's death to others in Garland, Irving, Plano, and Grapevine. Yet no pattern held.Then, in 1984, serial confessor Henry Lee Lucas—already infamous for hundreds of claimed murders—pleaded guilty to Linda's killing. Kaufman County briefly marked the case “cleared.” But Lucas's confession later fell apart. Records showed he was still in Michigan at the time of her death.Fifty-five years later, Linda's murder remains officially unsolved. What endures is the picture of a kind, capable young woman caught between the growing city and the fading quiet of small-town Texas—and a reminder of how easily a search for closure can bury the truth.If you have information about the murder of Linda Jane Phillips, please contact the Kaufman County Sheriff's Office at (972) 932-4337.Sources: The Fort Worth Star-Telegram, The Tyler Morning Telegraph, The San Antonio Express-News, The Odessa American, The Lubbock Avalanche-Journal, The Longview Daily News, The McKinney Courier-Gazette, The Austin American-Statesman, The Brownsville Herald, The Mesquite Daily News, and Henry Lee Lucas filesYou can support gone cold and listen to the show ad-free at https://patreon.com/gonecoldpodcastFind us at https://www.gonecold.comFor Gone Cold merch, visit https://gonecold.dashery.comFollow gone cold on Facebook, Instagram, Threads, TikTok, YouTube, and X.

Obie and Shaun interview Mitch Howie, an East Texas local, to hear about his journey to faith in Christ and his profession as a tattoo artist.
Jessica Fuentes, William Sarradet, and Nicholas Frank discuss their recent visit to the Rio Grande Valley, including stops in Laredo, San Ygnacio, McAllen, Harlingen, and Brownsville. “One of the things that often marks our time in the Valley — and similar regions — is that the communities there are so tightly knit and welcoming. Every time we go to the Panhandle, to East Texas, to West Texas, to the Valley, we are met with these really beautiful, intimate moments where people are open and willing to share.” See related readings here: https://glasstire.com/2025/11/16/art-dirt-a-visit-to-the-rgv/ If you enjoy Glasstire and would like to support our work, please consider donating.

In this episode of The Bandwich Tapes, I sit down with drummer, singer, and songwriter Alwyn Robinson, whose story travels from East Texas to Boulder, Colorado, and now to Brooklyn, New York.You may know Alwyn from his work with Leftover Salmon or his performances with Billy Strings, but now he's stepping forward with a new solo album called Marshall, out Friday, November 14. The record is a beautiful reflection of what Americana means to him, rooted, soulful, and full of texture.We discuss the importance of process, navigating grief and self-care, learning to be still, and how these inner lessons have shaped his growth as both a musician and a person. We also get into the making of Marshall, his collaboration with Bridget Carney (Lake Street Dive) and Andrew Ibanez, and how he's learning to find his own voice as a frontman.Music from the Episode:Carrying On (Alwyn Robinson)Nose on the Grindstone (Alwyn Robinson)Gentle on My Mind (Alwyn Robinson)Thank you for listening.

Are primitive, tribal people still living in the United States in modernity? Are feral people or “wild men” living in the shadows of Texas? Chester Moore and Lyle Blackburn investigate chilling reports from Trinity Bay to the Big Thicket. What's really lurking in the wild woods of Texas? In this gripping new episode of Dark Outdoors, host Chester Moore teams up with Lyle Blackburn to explore disturbing reports of feral humans, primitive tribes, and mysterious wild men said to roam the deep wilderness of Texas. From the windswept marshes of Trinity Bay near Galveston to the shadowy trails of the Big Thicket National Preserve, Chester and Lyle uncover forgotten tales, firsthand accounts, and investigative research that point to off-grid people living outside the norms of society—some possibly for generations.
Author and researcher Lyle Blackburn joins the program again and we give a detailed behind the scenes look at the new documentary Wild Men: The Search for Feral Humans & Lost Tribes that details reports of primitve people in East Texas in areas of the Trinity Triangle. This is our second show on this topic but now with fresh reports and new insight. Watch the new documentary and subscribe to Chester Moore's YouTube channel here.

Send us a textWhat if the win isn't a bigger platform but a life that can untie from the dock with a clear conscience? We sit down with East Texas pastor and church planter Teddy Sorrels to trace the narrow path of faithfulness in a world obsessed with celebrity metrics and seeker pragmatism. Anchored in 2 Timothy 4, we talk about preaching the word when it's costly, why the gospel's offense is actually mercy, and how sober, text-driven ministry reshapes everything from sermon prep to daily habits.Teddy shares the winding road from small country church to megachurch staff to planting Living Water in Gladewater. He lays out practical rhythms for preaching the whole counsel of God: planning the year, embracing hard passages, and “hiding behind the text” so people leave with Scripture, not a personality. We dig into the pitfalls of nose-and-nickel scorecards, the rise of platform culture, and the quiet freedom that comes from measuring success by obedience and disciple-making rather than attendance alone.The conversation moves from pulpit to home as we discuss marriage, fatherhood, and the kind of steady leadership that builds legacies. Teddy opens up about learning to give his wife his first energy, not leftovers; encouraging young families to live simply so they can disciple their kids; and calling men to courageous, gentle responsibility. Together we paint a picture of ministry that works hard without worshiping work, holds strong convictions with patience, and prepares people to endure.If you've felt the pull toward shortcuts or the fatigue of performance, this one will recalibrate your compass. Press play, share it with a friend who needs courage, and if it helps you, leave a rating and review so more people can find the show. Then tell us: where do you see the biggest drift—and how are you choosing faithfulness today?Support the show

Not every haunting starts with a whisper in the dark. Sometimes it starts with a television fading to black. Janet from East Texas shares a chilling premonition from her teens: a dream of Bonanza's Hoss Cartwright slowly collapsing into that old CRT “pin-dot” just hours before the real Dan Blocker died. Coincidence—or a goodbye that arrived through the glow of a screen? From there, we step into a different kind of dread: a hospital hallway, a five-year-old wanderer, and the first sighting of a towering shadow man with a hat and burning red eyes. He doesn't stay in the hospital. He follows her home—through childhood, up the stairs, to the bathroom door—until years later her own daughter starts describing “the evil man” the exact same way. A stunned relative sees him too, looming over a child's empty bed, forcing a family to fight back with faith, blessings, and a handful of holy medals. Are these stories proof that our fears call things to us—or that the people we love and the things that hate us know exactly how to find our light? #RealGhostStoriesOnline #TrueGhostStory #Premonition #DanBlocker #Bonanza #HatMan #ShadowPeople #HauntedHospital #ParanormalExperience #BlessThisHouse Love real ghost stories?

In this episode of The Bandwich Tapes, I sit down with legendary session drummer Paul Leim, whose six-decade career quietly powers a staggering piece of the soundtrack to our lives. Paul has played on more than 12,000 songs across over 2,000 releases, with 1,400+ silver/gold/platinum certifications, and global sales topping 540 million units. His discography encompasses over 150 combined GRAMMY nominations and wins, as well as 40+ major film/TV awards, and credits on more than 150 films and 100 television specials and series. If you've heard Lionel Richie, Shania Twain, Lyle Lovett, Kenny Chesney, Whitney Houston—or cues from Dirty Dancing, Smokey and the Bandit II, The River, or even Return of the Jedi, you've likely heard Paul.We trace the arc from East Texas clubs and Dallas jingle mills to late-'70s Los Angeles, where a “typical” week meant two complete drum rigs leapfrogging between Lionel Richie sessions, network TV soundstages, film dates, and award shows. Paul talks mentors and “angels” (band director Neil Grant, Robin Hood Brians, Doc Severinsen), lifelong friendships with the TCB family (Ron Tutt, Jerry Scheff), and lessons that still anchor his playing—especially dynamic control and “letting the mics work.” We get inside the high-wire reality of studio life. Paul calls it “95% boredom and 5% sheer terror”, including how to read conductors, when to lead the time, and when to ride it, and what it's like to move from live kit to orchestral percussion with John Williams.There are great shop-floor stories: cutting Lionel's “Truly” and counseling Lionel at the fork-in-the-road moment of leaving the Commodores; discovering that Lyle Lovett's “The Blues Walk” was gloriously vocal-free; and a deep dive into the precision world of Mutt Lange and Shania, ending bass notes just before the snare for mix “air,” the chrome-over-brass “important” snare, and the on-the-fly invention of tom “Mutt flaps” for short, open fills. Paul also shares a personal fork he chose differently: turning down a James Taylor tour to be home with his young family, only to hand JT the final serial-numbered Leim signature snare decades later at the White House.Today, Paul is still very much in motion: bandleading the TCB Band in Europe, steering The Tennessee Four with Thomas Gabriel to carry the Cash legacy, and jumping into Million Dollar Quartet shows—proof that the hang, the humility, and the groove endure. It's a conversation about craft, friendship, stewardship of a gift, and the choices that shape both a career and a life.Music from the Episode:Pick it Apart (Mark O'Connor)Truly (Lionel Richie)The Blues Walk (Lyle Lovett)Thank you for listening.

Buccaneer Energy Plc CEO Paul Welch talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company's latest operational updates in East Texas, including the spudding of the Allar #1 well and its plans to monetise associated gas via Bitcoin mining. Welch explained that Buccaneer expects the Allar #1 well to perform similarly to its previous Fouke 1 and Fouke 2 wells. While the gross production could reach 140 barrels per day, the field allowable limits it to 120 barrels daily, translating to a net 40 barrels per day for Buccaneer. At a WTI price of $60 per barrel, this would yield approximately $55,000 in monthly revenue for the company. Welch noted that the company had raised £500,000 to advance a strategic Bitcoin mining project in the Pine Mills field. The field's unique gas profile means gas volumes are insufficient to justify traditional takeaway infrastructure. Instead, Buccaneer plans to generate electricity onsite and use it to power a Bitcoin mining operation, potentially producing an additional $75,000 in monthly free cash flow if the company owns the full value chain. "This is essentially turning what is currently a kind of waste product into a revenue stream," Welch said, adding that it could also relieve back pressure on existing wells, enabling higher production rates. He highlighted that the company is open to partnering with firms experienced in Bitcoin mining to manage the infrastructure, equipment, and operations.

I head into the piney woods of East Texas for a family reunion… held in a cemetery. Since the mid-1800s, families have gathered at Antioch Cemetery on the third Sunday in October to argue about upkeep, share a potluck, and remember. My Uncle Bobby walks me through headstones, East Texas sawmill history, dry-county bootlegging, Civil War migrations from Alabama to Texas, faith, forgiveness, and what it feels like to sit beside your own name on a stone. It's part history tour, part family lore, and a meditation on how traditions survive.

Three years after a suitcase containing a man's torso surfaced in the Rio Grande near El Paso, another horror emerged—this time in the pine woods of East Texas. On February 3, 1962, two brothers seining minnows in a roadside ditch off U.S. Highway 59 north of Cleveland discovered two cardboard boxes wired together and packed with cement. Inside was the severed torso of a woman. Her head, arms, and legs were missing.San Jacinto County Sheriff Lewis Woodruff and Constable Collis Everitt called in the Texas Rangers and Houston pathologist Dr. Joseph Jachimczyk. The autopsy revealed crude dismemberment, a missing heart, and faint teeth marks on the torso. Nine pieces of women's clothing surrounded the body, all stripped of laundry tags. Every clue, as few as there were, pointed toward Houston.Investigators chased leads across Texas and beyond.Between the 1959 discovery in El Paso and the 1962 killing in San Jacinto County lay nearly eight hundred miles, three years, and two nameless victims—each drained of blood, each missing a heart. The phantom butcher once dubbed “Mack the Knifer” disappeared without a trace, leaving the questions of who they were and why they died buried with them.If you have any information about the 1962 San Jacinto Torso Case, please call the sheriff's office there at (936) 653-4367.Sources: The El Paso Times, The El Paso Herald-Post, The Houston Post, The Houston Chronicle, The Sarasota Journal, The Fort Lauderdale NewsYou can support gone cold and listen to the show ad-free at https://patreon.com/gonecoldpodcastFind us at https://www.gonecold.comFor Gone Cold merch, visit https://gonecold.dashery.comFollow gone cold on Facebook, Instagram, Threads, TikTok, YouTube, and X.

Mysterious lights flicker through the woods of Bragg Road and the Louisiana fields — are they swamp gas, headlights, or something not of this world? The 13 Days of Dark Outdoors begins where science and the supernatural collide. They've appeared for generations — glowing orbs floating above the dirt roads and swamps of East Texas and Louisiana. Some say they're lanterns carried by the dead. Others swear it's nothing more than chemistry in the dark: methane gas, refracted headlights, or static electricity. In this kickoff to 13 Days of Dark Outdoors, we travel from Bragg Road in the Big Thicket to Fields, La. chasing the mysterious “ghost lights” that have haunted both states for decades. Along the way, we talk to locals, dig into folklore, and explore the science that tries to explain the unexplainable. Is it superstition, optical illusion… or proof that some mysteries still live out there in the dark?

Texas DogmanAfter 25 years in Alaska, where the narrator immersed himself in the rugged wilderness—from the Arctic Pipeline to the Aleutian Islands and gold mines—developing a passion for cryptids, they spent over five years earning the trust of tribal elders. These elders shared ancient encounter stories, histories of elusive creatures, and even passed down a Woolly Rhinoceros tooth from a hunt in the late 1600s or early 1700s. Alaska's extremes brought thrilling wildlife sightings, like cooperative black bears raiding dumps and moose wandering urban streets, evoking Jack London adventures. Seeking warmer climes, the narrator relocated to a lush, open suburb in East Texas—137°F milder than Alaska's winters—only to discover cryptids thriving amid the greenery and barking dogs that suddenly fall silent at night. One afternoon, after a doctor's visit in a one-story office complex, their service Jack Russell Terrier grew agitated, pulling on the leash before freezing and trembling violently. As the narrator knelt to comfort the shaking dog, an unnatural silence descended—like a shadow blocking sound—accompanied by a foul, inexplicable odor. Remaining still, they waited it out until birds and frogs resumed chirping, and the presence lifted. In the soft mud nearby, a massive footprint appeared: longer and wider than the narrator's size 13 shoe (which barely dented the earth), ending in three deep claw marks from a heavy, narrow foot. Photos sent to Alaskan hunter friends yielded no identification. Locals whisper of similar run-ins with 10- to 12-foot-tall beasts, dubbing this a "Dogman." The narrator teases more harrowing tales for the brave-hearted. A devoted fan of the channel, they praise the host's non-judgmental, enthusiastic narration of such bewildering experiences, plus the joyful glimpses of farm life—chickens, dogs, roosters, and drone views—that brighten their housebound days due to disability. Grateful to have survived, they urge vigilance: always stay alert to live and share your stories.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

Episode 81 A fire, a flawed science, and a state that still hasn't learned. In 1991, Cameron Todd Willingham was convicted of setting the house fire that killed his three young children. Despite a mountain of later evidence debunking the “arson indicators” used against him, Texas executed Willingham in 2004—long after leading fire scientists warned that the case rested on junk science. Two decades later, Texas is preparing to repeat history. On October 16th, the state is scheduled to execute Robert Roberson, a man condemned under similarly discredited forensic theories and medical misunderstandings that doomed Willingham. The very science that convicted him has since been proven false, yet the machinery of “justice” continues to grind forward. In this first installment of our Texas Justice series, we revisit the Willingham case: How old-school fire investigation methods created a template for wrongful arson convictions The experts who tried to stop an execution built on myth The political forces that refused to listen—and what that refusal means for Robert Roberson today Help Stop Robert Roberson's Execution!!!

Nestled in the piney woods of East Texas is a mystical sanctuary filled with love, connection to Mother Nature, and a secluded safe place to connect to God. Kevin Schmidt, and his family, donated this amazingly beautiful sanctuary to anyone who resonates with the messages of using the tools we have to practice the arts of communication; developing inner wisdom and peace; meditation; communing with nature; and connection to God. The wonderful sanctuary is The Mystics Of Texas. Where some of the goals are to practice the lack of judgment; to aid each other spiritually, emotionally, connection to our energetic food sources (know your food), and promote bodily health.

In the piney woods of East Texas in 1910, a mob of white men stormed through the Black community of Slocum, murdering dozens — possibly hundreds — of unarmed residents. The killers faced almost no consequences, and the survivors were silenced by fear. Over a century later, even basic recognition of the Slocum Massacre remains a battle. This is the story of the slaughter Texas tried to forget, and the people still fighting to be remembered.

On the one hand, you usually don't learn much by playing really bad teams because they're not good enough to really challenge you. But you can learn a lot about the culture of your team and whether they're going to focus regardless of the opponent, and Florida State passed that test with flying colors. More than a few backups looked promising in the process. Please rate and review this podcast! Every 5-star review helps! Support the podcast via the Unconquered Podcast Patreon page.

Tonight's guest wishes to remain anonymous, so I call her “Lynn” on tonight's show. Lynn's father has a farm in East Texas and he's the one who introduced her to the reality that Dogmen are extant. After talking with her dad about them, Lynn is under the impression that he just might have an arrangement with the Dogmen around his property. She just might be right about that. Lynn went from hearing about the Dogmen around her father's property to actually having her first encounter there. On tonight's show, she's going to chronicle that first encounter as well as several other encounters she's had with Dogmen, over the years. We hope you'll tune in and listen to her do that.MY NEW DOGMAN PODCAST!My new podcast is called "Dogman Tales.” It features fictional stories about Dogmen and people who have experiences with them.
