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?

Behind the Drums: Paul Leim's Musical Legacy

The Bandwich Tapes

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.

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.

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.

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!!!

Welcome to Hot Topics! In this episode, host Gabrielle Crichlow talks with fellow tutorpreneur Raven Marshall, who shares her journey in the tutoring field and her experiences as an educator.Raven explains how she shifted from a successful career in the insurance industry to teaching. She initially worked in a traditional classroom, where she developed her skills and became a certified reading specialist, earning a master's degree in education. However, she realized that homeschooling her two sons would better suit her family's needs and lifestyle, allowing for a more personalized learning experience. This change highlighted the importance of tailored instruction, showing how customized tutoring can create valuable educational experiences that meet each child's unique needs.Raven focuses primarily on students in kindergarten through 5th grade, with a strong emphasis on reading. She is dedicated to helping her young learners develop essential literacy skills, such as phonemic awareness and letter recognition. Along with her work at the homeschool co-op she co-founded in East Texas, which promotes collaboration among families, Raven also offers private online tutoring. This allows her to connect with more students and provide individualized support.One of the most rewarding aspects of homeschooling for Raven is the freedom it gives her to be more creative in her teaching. She enjoys breaking away from the strict rules often found in traditional schools, enabling her to try different teaching methods that truly engage her students. Throughout the episode, listeners will gain insights into Raven's "big" teaching style, which keeps students interested and helps them learn effectively. She finds joy in watching her students progress in reading and their overall development.Raven encourages listeners to follow their dreams and pursue their passions, highlighting the flexibility that homeschooling provides. This flexibility allows families to adapt their educational approaches to better fit their children's individual needs.Join us for this informative discussion that explores important educational topics, emphasizes the value of community support, and celebrates the creativity that inspires a love for learning!Who is Raven Marshall?From Raven: "I'm Raven Marshall, a reading specialist and homeschool teacher living in beautiful East Texas on a farm with chickens, wide-open pastureland, and our cat, Naomi Michelle. I've been married for 20 years and have two amazing boys, ages 15 and 12. After earning my BBA in Business Management from SFA, I went back to school and became a certified Reading Specialist with a master's in education. I spent 16 years in both public and private school classrooms and now homeschool full-time. I co-founded a thriving homeschool co-op that's going strong after four years, and I currently offer online tutoring. Recently, God placed it on my heart to open an in-person tutoring service with three incredible women—and we're excited to make a real impact in our community. In my spare time, I love reading, staying active, and spending time outdoors."You can find Raven:On the web: https://reading-roots-tutoring-gbdey7k.gamma.site/On Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61576677821273On Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/reading_roots_tutoring/On YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@ReadingrootstutoringserviceOn LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/raven-marshall-b8046b9b/Deal for you: "We're offering a lower hourly rate with the 9-week Report Card package. $30 an hour 1x for 9 weeks and $35 an hour 1x for 6 weeks.

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.
