This week on Mormon Stories News, John Dehlin along with Julia, and Brooklyn of the OSF team, break down some of the biggest stories making headlines in Mormonism.President Nelson announced the Springfield, Missouri temple on April 2, 2023, yet ground was just broken for it on June 6, 2026. Why the delay? Have other temples been delayed? What is the average amount of time for a temple to be finished between its first announcement to dedication? What are the membership numbers that will fill these temples?On June 7, 2026 General Authority Seventy Kyle S. McKay spoke at a Stake Conference in Yukon, Oklahoma. Shortly after the video was posted, however, Mormon church leaders quickly removed it. Join us as we go over the most controversial parts of his talk!June has been dubbed “Fidelity Month” by Governor Cox. Cox did not announce the declaration with a news release, nor did he post it on social media as he has done at the beginning of June in the past years. But does Utah WANT this change? Is Cox trying to replace Pride Month?On June 4th the Department of Defense made some changes to the recognized list of religions. The list included several “Christian” denominations such as Lutheran, Jehovah's Witnesses, Methodists, etc. However, The LDS Church was not listed among the “Christian” denominations.On June 6th Edward Smart, the father of well-known Elizabeth Smart, shared a public Instagram Post about his current status with the LDS Church. The LDS Church is making changes to the Sacrament Meeting rooms! This story first broke with Rebecca Bibliotheca of Mormonish Podcast who shared that architectural plans for two LDS meeting house remodels reveal that the sacrament altar is now to be placed front and center under the pulpit. The plans will be in place by 2028 and this will be the new structure going forward. In 2026, BYU Football player Parker Kingston was charged with first-degree felony rape in Utah. The incident was reported by a 20-year-old woman in February 2025. Kingston has pleaded not guilty and the case is proceeding through the Utah court system. News has been released concerning the request for a new judge for the case.An invested citizen was able to attend a Utah City Council Meeting in which someone shared their concerns about the American Fork Police department in their handling of Reckless Ben (previously covered on Mormon Stories). This insider video gives a closer look at the concerned citizens of American Fork.The Great Salt Lake is in critical condition with historically low water levels due to long-term drought and heavy water diversion for agriculture and urban use. These changes threaten key ecosystems and create toxic dust storms that impact air quality across the Wasatch Front. Governor Cox said he discussed with President Trump a potential federal funding around $1 billion.___________________YouTubeShow NotesAt Mormon Stories we explore, celebrate, and challenge Mormon culture through in-depth stories told by members and former members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints as well as scholars, authors, LDS apologists, and other professionals.  Our overall mission is to: 1.

Stacy has descended a new rabbit hole that makes this episode even more exciting than usual; however, it's a Cultural Blindspot so she's forced to wait to share even though it's become her LIFE. Speaking of holes, Eric continues to recover from his dental surgery with his tooth hole intact. He and “the Girlfriend” did something perhaps no one has ever done, they crashed into a bird enroute home from Veranda Beach – a traumatizing experience all around. On the same ride he realized his car's data center wasn't working thus begins “The early Morning Plight of the Chevy Blazer.” Other than Mexican food and avoiding grocery shopping Stacy's highlight in banana Laffy Taffy (which leads to a conversation about the excellent candy selection at Dollarama in Canada. For their CBS (cultural blindspots), not to be confused with IBS, Stacy finally gets to discuss the cultural phenomenon that is the true crime documentary. From MacKenzie Shirilla to Elizabeth Smart with Moriah Wilson for good measure, Stacy is hooked! To redeem herself she watches What Ever Happened to Baby Jane which essentially had a fictional true crime plot with the iconic real-life rivals Bette Davis and Joan Crawford. It was a wild ride and like no other day at the beach! Perhaps inspired by his trip to Canada, Eric watched Strange Brew, a precursor to movies like Wayne's World. To balance out the shenanigans he also watched GlenGarry Glen Ross which featured an A-list cast including our old pals Al Pacino and Jack Lemmon. He gave both movies two thumbs sideways. As for the topic of the week, it was trivia time, a surprisingly fun time to learn they know nothing!

What counts as cheating when no one else is technically in the room?In this episode of Girls Gone Gritty, Farley and Jennifer get honest about boundaries, secrecy, sex, technology, and the conversations many couples avoid. They start with lighter updates, from graduation season and family milestones to NCAA eligibility changes and Elizabeth Smart's powerful reinvention through bodybuilding. Then the episode shifts into a bold and uncomfortable question: where is the line between personal privacy and betrayal?The hosts talk through emotional affairs, porn, sex toys, masturbation, and how technology has changed intimacy, trust, and access. They question whether secrecy is the real issue, why emotional connection outside a relationship can feel more painful than physical cheating, and how couples need clearer conversations around what feels respectful or hurtful. The episode also honors Lulu Gribbin with the Got Grit Award for turning trauma into a safety initiative, then closes with a reminder to trust your gut, speak up, and keep communication honest.Episode Highlights:(0:00) Intro(1:06) Celebrating graduations and family milestones(2:40) Top three stories of the week(5:08) NCAA changes athlete eligibility rules(8:14) Elizabeth Smart's bodybuilding comeback(10:07) Setting up the cheating conversation(11:49) Statistics around men, women, and infidelity(13:26) Why emotional affairs can hurt deeply(15:16) Do sex toys and porn cross a line?(18:50) Technology, porn, and blurred boundaries(22:17) The 80-20 rule of infidelity(23:13) Sex toys, privacy, and personal choice(28:11) Protecting innocence in a digital world(30:16) Got Grit Award: Lulu Gribbin(32:47) Song of the week: “Madeline”Send us Fan MailSupport the showFollow us:Web: https://girlsgonegritty.com/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/girlsgonegritty/More ways to find us: https://linktr.ee/girlsgonegritty

In June 2002, fourteen-year-old Elizabeth Smart was taken from her bedroom at knifepoint and held captive for nine months, enduring abuse that would have broken most people beyond repair. Against extraordinary odds, she survived, and then she decided to step fully into the public eye; not in spite of what happened to her, but because of it. She has testified before Congress, helped author a Department of Justice handbook for kidnapping survivors, and founded the Elizabeth Smart Foundation to dismantle the shame culture that compounds survivors' trauma. In this powerful episode, Elizabeth walks us through the night that changed everything, how she held onto hope during nine months of captivity, what justice looked and felt like after nearly eight years of waiting, and why she believes that being seen is one of the most radical things a survivor can do.

I open up about how I used to think my strict religion family situation was the absolute worst… until the Life Coach School helped me stop the “woe is me” story and start pulling my own weeds.We talk focusing on what's good instead of what's missing, the garden metaphor that changed everything, perspective from Elizabeth Smart's incredible story, and why your biggest problem might just be thinking you shouldn't have problems.

She was trying to say ingestion but she wasn't wrong. This week: a kid at gym daycare called him daddy, the lawnmower guy who waves while pelting you with rocks, the coffee beans that may or may not be a federal crime, Elizabeth Smart bodybuilder, the runway walk toward a stranger who wasn't waving at me, hantavirus cruise ship discourse, and why she'd buy a Royal Caribbean and name it Good Boy. If you're coming from The Perkfitt Podcast, welcome back. Same people, different show.

Three people are dead, including a husband and wife, after coming down with Hantavirus which is usually spread by rats. It happened onboard a ship on a voyage across the Atlantic. As Les Trent reports, medical experts are worried because it's an extremely rare strain of the virus that can be transmitted human to human. The cruise liner is working with authorities to coordinate medical screening of all guests, stating “the health and safety of all passengers and crew is our highest priority.” And remember the guy who had to take an entire plane ride with water dripping on his head? Here he is, Kevin Glover, talking for the first time about the flight that left him drenched. He spoke exclusively with Steven Fabian. We reached out to United Airlines about Glover's claims that he could have been moved to an empty seat and that he wasn't fairly compensated but did not hear back. Plus, Britney Spears is free again! This time from a serious DUI charge. As Jim Moret reports, Britney avoided jail time, taking a plea deal.

This one is a real, honest mix of growth, pressure, and calling out some of the traps high performers fall into. We dig into what it actually means to "quit" something — and why quitting isn't always weakness. Sometimes it's alignment. Whether it's habits, relationships, or even careers, there's a difference between giving up and moving on. I also touch on plans for upcoming peptide conversations — breaking down what's actually useful, what's hype, and where people are getting it wrong. Got some powerful episodes coming up too, including one with my parents (which will be real and probably a little raw) and another with Elizabeth Smart that you won't want to miss. We also get into a controversial one — is personal development actually overrated? At what point does "working on yourself" just become another addiction? That ties into the bigger trap: always chasing more, without ever defining what "enough" looks like. I open up about some personal stuff too — feeling like I'm falling short as a dad at times, and a recent honest conversation with my son that hit me hard. We talk about the realities of blending families, the adjustments that come with it, and how it's not always smooth like people pretend it is. And for all of you grinding through stacked morning routines… we call that out too. When optimizing your life starts to feel like a burden, you're missing the point. We wrap with a reminder most people need: growth matters, but so does actually being present in your life. Gratitude isn't soft — it's necessary if you don't want to burn out chasing a life you'll never feel.   Next Level Links: Work With a Nutrition Coach - Schedule A Consultation Nutrition Coaching - www.becomenextlevel.com   Partner Links: Try Thrive Lab Free For One Month - Start Here Order Supplements From Transform - Shop Here Order Supplements From Cured Nutrition - Shop Here Order Supplements From Legion (use code keynutrition for 20% off first order) - Shop Here   Be Featured on the Show: Apply to be a live calller guest on the show - Submit Application Here Submit Q&A Questions to be read live on the show - Submit Here   Free Guides: Eating Out Guide - Get The Guide High-Protein Fast Food Orders - Get the Guide Macro Food Options Guide - Get The Guide Join Us On Patreon - Join Here   Connect with us on Instagram: Host Brad Jensen – @thesoberbodybuilder Co-Host Craig Smith - @greatestdaymindset Next Level Nutrition – @mynextlevelnutrition

Welcome back to The Rizzuto Show—your favorite comedy podcast where the topics don't matter and the chaos is guaranteed.This episode kicks off with Moon dropping knowledge bombs in “Fact Man” that nobody asked for but somehow we all needed—like the origin of Mountain Dew and why it sounds like something your uncle definitely brewed in a shed. From there, things take a turn into surprisingly heartfelt territory as Lern shares stories about the late Dave Mason… including a real-life celebrity sighting at Whole Foods that involved clam chowder, mild stalking, and zero regrets.But don't worry—we don't stay emotional for long. This comedy podcast quickly pivots into absolute nonsense with a breakdown of the new Machine Gun Kelly and Fred Durst track that has the studio split between nostalgia and “what did I just hear?” There's also talk of Morgan Wallen donating big money (redemption arc?), Joe Buck hosting sports Jeopardy (sure, why not), and one of the strangest almost-marriages involving Aubrey Plaza and Michael Cera that honestly feels fake—but isn't.We also get into wild stories from Hollywood, including Rihanna absolutely leveling Michael Cera on set (yes, for real), and a genuinely inspiring update on Elizabeth Smart that somehow leads into a discussion about bodybuilding competitions… which quickly becomes a terrible idea we're all considering anyway.And because no episode is complete without a completely unnecessary argument, we wrap things up debating the greatest action movies of all time—where feelings get hurt, opinions get loud, and nobody agrees on anything.If you're into a comedy podcast that mixes celebrity gossip, weird news, random facts, and a group of people who absolutely should not be trusted with microphones—this episode delivers.Follow The Rizzuto Show → linktr.ee/rizzshow for more from your favorite daily comedy show.Connect with The Rizzuto Show Comedy Podcast online → 1057thepoint.com/RizzShow.Hear The Rizz Show daily on the radio at 105.7 The Point | Hubbard Radio in St. Louis, MO.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

We talk about what healing has looked like for her, how she learned to move forward after trauma, and what it's been like to find love and create a family of her own. We also dive into what fuels her advocacy, the impact she hopes to make, and her perspective on forgiveness.

When Savannah Guthrie told Hoda Kotb she believes two of the ransom notes are real, she wasn't making an investigative claim. She was holding onto the only thread that keeps the worst outcome at bay — the possibility that her mother is alive and someone, somewhere, is willing to give her back. That's not a fact. That's a prayer dressed up as a belief. And the distinction matters.The notes referenced Nancy's Apple Watch and a damaged floodlight. Harvey Levin called them carefully crafted. KOLD's anchor said the details seemed like insider knowledge. But the FBI's lead agent said the information was publicly available. A retired ATF agent pointed out that a Google search pulls up photos of Nancy wearing the watch on national television. And every behavioral marker of a real ransom negotiation — communication channels, proof of life, escalating demands, an actual exchange — is completely absent.We put the Guthrie ransom notes next to the Lindbergh case, the Getty kidnapping, and the Elizabeth Smart abduction, and the pattern is impossible to ignore. High-profile disappearance plus media saturation equals ransom fraud. Every single time. We examine why Savannah believes, what the psychology of grief tells us about that belief, and where the evidence actually points when you strip away the emotion and look at what's there — and what isn't.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Savannah Guthrie believes two ransom notes about her missing mother are real. She said it publicly, through tears, in her first interview since Nancy Guthrie was taken from her Tucson home. And when you hear the full weight of what she's carrying — the guilt, the grief, the fear that her own fame brought a predator to her mother's bedside — you understand why she needs those notes to be real. Because if they're real, someone has Nancy. And if someone has her, there might still be a way to bring her home.But the evidence and the belief are pointed in different directions. The FBI characterized the details in those notes as publicly available. The Bitcoin wallet sat at zero through both deadlines. No proof of life was ever delivered. No contact was ever made with the family despite their repeated, desperate public appeals. And a confirmed opportunist has already been federally charged for sending fake demands after watching the case on cable news.We walk through the full record — what the notes said, what they didn't say, how they compare to legitimate ransom negotiations, and what the Lindbergh kidnapping, the Getty abduction, and the Elizabeth Smart case tell us about why ransom fraud always follows famous families. We examine Savannah's belief with the respect it deserves and the honesty the case demands.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

A 14-year-old girl is taken from her bedroom and held captive for nine months; a case that still feels impossible to process. Skeet Ulrich almost didn’t take the role of her captor, saying he couldn’t justify stepping into someone that dark until he understood the bigger story. What followed clearly stayed with him: from scenes so intense crew members walked off set, to the moment Elizabeth Smart walked onto the set while he was fully in character. He opens up about the toll it took, the nightmare that came out of it, and how his own past shaped the way he connected to her story.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Reposted from They Did What?!, which you can find now or very soon at: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://podcastica.com/podcast/they-did-what⁠⁠⁠⁠ — In this episode, Kelsey and Gen discuss the Netflix 2026 documentary Kidnapped: Elizabeth Smart that revisits the 2002 abduction of Elizabeth Smart from her home in Salt Lake City and the nine months she spent in captivity before being recovered alive. Drawing on Elizabeth's accounts, new interviews, news coverage from the time, and law-enforcement records, the documentary examines how the case quickly became a national media story and how early assumptions shaped both public perception and investigative priorities.  Kidnapped: Elizabeth Smart details a series of misjudgments by law enforcement and focuses on the efforts and experiences of Elizabeth's family, who continued to push the search forward when progress stalled. Rather than retelling the crime itself, the documentary examines how the case was handled, how it was reported, and how those choices affected both the investigation and the public response.   Next up: We're covering The Devil is Busy, streaming on HBO Max.

In June of 2002, a 14-year-old girl was taken from her bedroom in the middle of the night, from a quiet home in one of the safest neighborhoods in one of the safest cities in America. Her name was Elizabeth Smart. This case has endured for more than two decades, not only because of what happened to Elizabeth, but because of how it happened. It forces us to confront uncomfortable questions about trust, faith, and what happens when deeply held beliefs collide with someone willing to exploit them.Elizabeth wasn't held for hours or days. She was a prisoner for nine months, subjected to repeated trauma and torture that would have broken most adults. But Elizabeth's story is not just about what happened to her. It's also about survival and strength. It's about a young girl who would later turn the unimaginable into advocacy and support for victims of kidnapping and sexual violence.Enter to win TWO badges to CrimeCon 2026 in Las Vegas here: CrimeCon 2026 Badge GiveawayTry our coffee! - www.CriminalCoffeeCo.comBecome a Patreon member -- > https://www.patreon.com/CrimeWeeklyShop for your Crime Weekly gear here --> https://crimeweeklypodcast.com/shopYoutube: https://www.youtube.com/c/CrimeWeeklyPodcastWebsite: CrimeWeeklyPodcast.comInstagram: @CrimeWeeklyPodTwitter: @CrimeWeeklyPodFacebook: @CrimeWeeklyPodADS:1. https://www.Rula.com/CrimeWeekly - Connect with high quality therapists TODAY with Rula!2. https://www.TryFUM.com - Use code CRIMEWEEKLY for a FREE gift with your Journey Pack!3. https://www.FactorMeals.com/CrimeWeekly50Off - Use code CRIMEWEEKLY50OFF for 50% off your first box and FREE breakfast for a year!

Netflix documentary Kidnapped: Elizabeth Smart gave us a definitive look at one of America's most harrowing cases—this time, told entirely in Elizabeth's own voice.

The Faith Factor: A look at her evolved relationship with her upbringing and how she processed the "twisted prophecy" used against her.

In the early morning hours of June 5, 2002, a man appeared in 14-year-old Elizabeth Smart's bedroom at her home in Salt Lake City, Utah.

For the first time, both of them are telling their complete stories. From Elizabeth's harrowing nine months with her captors to Mary Katherine's traumatizing experience in isolation trying to remember all the details of that terrifying night, we're gonna unpack AND SCREAM ABOUT IT ALL.

The brazen kidnapping of 14-year-old Elizabeth Smart from her bedroom captivated the nation. And when their main suspect died in custody, police feared they'd never learn her fate. But Elizabeth was still alive, being held in the woods, and facing daily abuse at the hands of her captors. Though investigators thought of it as a cold case, the Smart family continued their search. And a clue from Elizabeth's younger sister about the kidnapper's identity led to her dramatic rescue and emotional family reunion. In the Netflix documentary film “Kidnapped: Elizabeth Smart,” we hear from Elizabeth herself about her nine month ordeal, as well as from loved ones and investigators who worked to bring her home. She explains how she survived in captivity, the physical and psychological abuse she suffered, and why she passed on earlier chances to escape.OUR SPOILER-FREE REVIEWS OF "KIDNAPPED: ELIZABETH SMART" BEGIN IN THE FINAL 9 MINUTES OF THE EPISODE.

Elizabeth Smart (Kidnapped: Elizabeth Smart) is a child safety advocate and founder of the Elizabeth Smart Foundation. Elizabeth joins the Armchair Expert to discuss why advocacy became her opportunity to let other victims and survivors know they're not alone, growing up not thinking her life would be in any way extraordinary, and details she remembers of her kidnapping at knifepoint in the middle of the night at age 14. Elizabeth and Dax talk about how her perspective on her experience has evolved now being a parent herself, the twisted, manipulative history of her abductors, and the ways her brain grasped for hope in such a dire situation. Elizabeth explains how she outsmarted her captors leading to her rescue, her challenges with the justice system, and her approach to protecting her family today.Follow Armchair Expert on the Wondery App or wherever you get your podcasts.
