The ferryman at Oliver's Ferry wouldn't carry anyone across the narrows after dark, and two centuries later that is still the first thing told about the place. | #WDRadio HOUR ONE: A 178-year-old mystery comes to the surface in a Philadelphia suburb. (Grandfather's Ghost Story Leads to Mass Grave) *** Recently a wrecking crew began tearing down and old building in Rhode Island. But the big burly men on the crew got so frightened they refused to continue the work. Does reconstruction of a home or building anger the souls who once lived there? (Does Remodeling Your Home Disturb The Spirits Who Died There?) *** The way life has grown on our planet requires that all living things feed off each other and must kill others in order to survive. That's the way of the world if you want to live for any more than a few days. But some people are now claiming they can live without food at all… indefinitely. (Life Without Food) *** Three men were in a shed selling gardening supplies when some strange powder suddenly hit the ceiling. Before they had time to react, a small jug on a shelf abruptly flew across the room. One man picked up the jug and placed it a covered box. Instantly, the jug was...somehow...back on the floor. And that was just the beginning of the strange haunting of a community's garden shed. (The Poltergeist In The Allotment Shed) *** In the movie Salt, Angelina Jolie plays a double-agent who is mind-controlled by scary remnants of the USSR secret service. And in real life, the 1940s bombshell Candy Jones was apparently brainwashed with drugs and used as a CIA covert operative. (The Supermodel Who Was Brainwashed Into Becoming a Spy) *** No one knows exactly when she was born. Some think, maybe, she was a gypsy. Others say she was the seventh daughter of a seventh daughter. The life of Elizabeth Barnes is a mysterious one, filled with many loves, losses, and prognostications. (The Witch of Plum Hollow) *** Some travelers, arriving late at night to board Oliver's Ferry the next day, stayed at Oliver's house. But they were never seen making the ferry crossing the next morning. Is it possible that the rumors are true – that they never left the house alive? (The Frights of Oliver's Ferry)==========HOUR TWO: An eerie tombstone stands watch over one of Portland Oregon's oldest cemeteries. And the story behind that tombstone is a strange one. (The Guardians of Lone Fir Cemetery) *** Don't take a gift from Little Gracie's grave... or her life-like statue might cry tears of blood. (The Ghost of Gracie Watson) *** When it came to her daughter's Elsa doll, one mom was eager and ready to “Let It Go”. But the doll supernaturally refused to be let go! (Haunted Elsa Doll) *** An ancient stone cross is said by locals to be cursed, and the curse infects anyone who dares to disrespect it. (Curse of the Saxon Stone Cross) *** Christopher Slaughterford was seemingly a completely ordinary young Englishman – but he has earned an unenviable place in the legal books. (T he Trials of Christopher Slaughterford) *** Two authors reported a very strange encounter with a mysterious entity they believed was not of this world. What did they see and why were they under the impression this being was not of this world? (An Author's Encounter With A Not-Of-This-World Entity)==========SUDDEN DEATH OVERTIME: For Allen Taylor, January 15, 1919 was just another day on his farm near Prescott, Iowa. That is, until his 15-year-old neighbor Irene Hoskins came stumbling down the lane with a gash in the side of her head. (The Hoskins Family Murders) *** How did someone get the job of an executioner in medieval times? We'll find out!

Society member Lea Harris, tells the story of her 3 times great-grandfather, Peter Nettle—a young Englishman whose life changed forever when a death sentence was commuted to transportation to New South Wales giving him a second chance and beginning a family story that continues today.
A series of 16 influential political pamphlets published between 1776 and 1783 during the American Revolutionary War (1775-83) titled The American Crisis, or simply The Crisis, by eighteenth-century Enlightenment philosopher and author Thomas Paine — an Englishman living in the colonies who signed his essays anonymously as "Common Sense," the title of his earlier influential work. Each essay, bolstered the morale of the American colonists to fight hard for their independence, appealed to the English to support the colonist's cause, clarified the issues at stake, and denounced any type of negotiated peace. The essays were gathered into one volume in 1882, showcasing the iconic opening line: "These are the times that try men's souls. The summer soldier and the sunshine patriot will, in this crisis, shrink from the service of their country; but he that stands it now, deserves the love and thanks of man and woman."

In The Money Media's Peter Thomas Fornatale (PTF) and Jonathon Kinchen (JK) sit down to recap a big weekend of horse racing action topped by a sensational running of the Travers Stakes 2026, where Brad Cox runner Leading Change stayed unbeaten and downed the cream of the 3-year-old crop to win the Grade 1 in just his third start. Leading Change bounded boldly by Preakness Stakes 2026 winner Napoleon Solo while locking Kentucky Derby 2026 and Belmont Stakes 2026 winner Golden Tempo out from his rail run to get the victory under a golden ride by hot jockey Manny Franco. With the titans of the division foiled by such a precocious runner, the Travers Stakes paints an interesting picture for divisional honors as well as if any of the 3-year-olds hold any weight against older horses coming up towards the Breeders' Cup Classic. The weekend included so many other notable moments from Kentucky Downs starting its 2026 season to Englishman running another scorcher to win the H. Allen Jerkens 2026 on the Travers Stakes undercard. This is a stacked episode with plenty to talk about and opine on for the Breeders' Cup picture!

Whaley discusses his road to the prestigious Havemeyer Trophy, the key advice he received from his FSU coach, his father's influence, and his excitement about representing Great Britain & Ireland in the upcoming Walker Cup at Lahinch.
This is how a god dies, not with a cosmic explosion, not with a descent into eternity, but with the face of a pissed off Englishman calling it a big pile of bollocks.

My guest this week is Jack Vass, a young English rugby player who grew up in Kent, came through the Saracens Academy and is now playing with the Espoirs at Toulouse. Jack has previously appeared on the Amateur Rugby Podcast as a French rugby analyst, but this time we're talking about his own journey through the game. Jack's route has been anything but straightforward. He moved away from home as a teenager to attend Trinity School, dealt with significant periods of injury, continued his studies and eventually made his way to France, where he has experienced a very different approach to developing and playing rugby. We talked about: Growing up in Kent and the influence of Jack's dad The kicking sessions that became a foundation of his game How playing football helped develop his rugby Moving away from home at 15/16 to attend Trinity Why France was always part of Jack's plan The differences between English and French rugby Keeping the ball alive and playing through contact Why French rugby has helped develop his offloading game Dealing with injuries and setbacks Balancing university with rugby in France His plans for his final year at Toulouse I particularly enjoyed the discussion about the differences between the two rugby cultures. Jack isn't simply saying that one is better than the other. He's describing what he has learned from being exposed to both, and how that has changed the way he plays.

Ann catches up with newly crowned U.S. Amateur champion Jack Whaley just one day after his life-changing victory at historic Merion Golf Club. Whaley, the 22-year-old Englishman and rising senior at Florida State, joins Ann from the passenger seat during a road trip south — and, no, he wasn't driving!Whaley talks about the emotions of capturing the Havemeyer Trophy, defeating Jay Leng Jr. 4 & 3 in the 36-hole final, and how growing up playing golf in England prepared him perfectly for Sunday's rainy, demanding conditions at Merion.He also shares the pivotal advice his FSU coach gave him during the lunch break, the role his father played throughout his journey, and his excitement about representing Great Britain & Ireland in the upcoming Walker Cup at Lahinch in Ireland. It's a revealing conversation with one of amateur golf's newest stars, less than 24 hours after the biggest victory of his young career.
In 2016, Danish politician Ida Auken described the year 2030 as a happy place to live: no car, no house, no appliances, no privacy, and a living room lent out for business meetings whenever she steps away. Joe Grabowski and Grettelyn Darkey read Ida Auken's essay beside G.K. Chesterton, who had already named the bargain nearly a century before it was offered—that privacy is the mark of property, and that a people stripped of both are being fitted for a hive instead of a home. In This Episode: Why G.K. Chesterton tied privacy to property, and why he said the Englishman's castle was too often hardly even a house The bees, the beavers, and G.K. Chesterton's fundamental principle of private property How Auken's 2030 city matches the servile state that G.K. Chesterton and Hilaire Belloc warned about The one thing absent from a utopia built on shared living rooms: marriage, children, family Why "having nothing and possessing all things" means the opposite of what socialism offers Resources Mentioned: Ida Auken, "Welcome to 2030. I own nothing, have no privacy, and life has never been better" (World Economic Forum, 2016) G.K. Chesterton, "Prohibition and Property" (The New Witness, October 7, 1921) G.K.

A robbery built on a perfect identity swap turns into a murder mystery with a cruel twist. Raymond thinks he has found the easiest long shot of his life - a fake Englishman, a hidden fortune, and a chance to slip away with everything - but the real danger is the man riding beside him.Kelly Raymond is a desperate gambler who spots an ad that seems almost too convenient: a gentleman needs a driver and traveling companion for a cross-country trip to San Francisco. What follows is a slow-burn con game across America, where every detail matters - from London's streets and Soho landmarks to a forged passport, a buried body, and a Nevada state trooper who may have already ruined everything.You'll discover how Raymond plays the role of "Walker Hendricks," why the trip becomes a test of memory and nerve, and how a single clue from a legal letter changes the entire game. The story keeps tightening as the stakes climb from theft to murder to a final reveal that rewrites who was hunting whom.This episode is driven by one speaker, Dwight6, performing the full suspense narrative with shifting voices and a sharp noir edge. The result is a classic cat-and-mouse story about greed, deception, and the dangerous confidence that comes from thinking you see the whole board.If you like suspense with a smart payoff, this one is for you. It is especially good for listeners who enjoy crime stories, old-time radio drama, and twists that land harder the longer you sit with them.

With Jack Whaley becoming on the third Englishman to win the coveted Havemeyer Trophy on Sunday evening at Merion (behind Matt Fitzpatrick & Harold Hilton), Sam, Tom & Peter wax lyrical about his performance, the venue, the event and what feels like an increased level of attention the golf world is paying to elite amateur golf. As well as his exemption into both the US Open, Open Championship, and an invitation to the Masters (provided he behaves himself between now and April), Jack Whaley also picks up a Walker Cup selection. The news comes with the announcement of the team that will head to Co. Clare in the first week of September where Dean Robertson's GB&I side are looking to prevent USA from their sixth consecutive title.

Send us Fan MailOn the podcast this time, Steven and Sean are saying “screw you!” to a bunch of English vampires. We watched the 2022 film from Jessica M. Thompson, The Invitation.We think many of us dream of getting a free trip to the English countryside to stay in a massive castle. Just the novelty alone would be incredible.There's a lesson to be learned from this movie, though.

A series of 16 influential political pamphlets published between 1776 and 1783 during the American Revolutionary War (1775-83) titled The American Crisis, or simply The Crisis, by eighteenth-century Enlightenment philosopher and author Thomas Paine — an Englishman living in the colonies who signed his essays anonymously as "Common Sense," the title of his earlier influential work. Each essay, bolstered the morale of the American colonists to fight hard for their independence, appealed to the English to support the colonist's cause, clarified the issues at stake, and denounced any type of negotiated peace. The essays were gathered into one volume in 1882, showcasing the iconic opening line: "These are the times that try men's souls. The summer soldier and the sunshine patriot will, in this crisis, shrink from the service of their country; but he that stands it now, deserves the love and thanks of man and woman."

The team discussed their podcast preparation and personal updates. Terry shared details about a recent hospital visit due to ongoing, let's just say explosive situation, which led to an emergency room visit where nurses had difficulty finding a vein for IV treatment. The group briefly discussed missing an opportunity to get free Meta glasses, with Terry planning to follow up with the BVA about his application. The conversation then shifted to personal updates, with Keith mentioning his work on his personal blog, heltsley.net and upcoming shipment of cookies, while Terry and Jill shared weather-related experiences. Don’t forget, you can support us by making purchases by starting out with our Amazon Affiliate link when you shop. News of the Week Lumberjack Competition: Terry shared a story about two women breaking three world records at the 66th annual Lumberjack World Championships in Wisconsin, including records in underhanded chopping and standing chop events. Hazardous Goldfish: Jill then mentioned a Canadian government campaign warning people not to release goldfish into rivers and streams due to their invasive nature and potential damage to waterways. Spider-Man Rescue: Keith concluded by sharing a story about Christopher Hellenthal, who helped a man in a wheelchair cross a street in Jonesboro, Arkansas while dressed as Spider-Man after a work-themed event. Championship Condiment: Terry discussed how World Cup fans from other countries discovered ranch salad dressing in America and the TSA’s response with transportation guidelines. Tallest Nutcracker: Jill shared about a Minnesota town attempting to set a world record for the tallest nutcracker, measuring 65 feet tall, which would surpass Germany’s previous 33-foot record. Switched at Birth: Keith then described a case in Colorado where two men discovered through DNA testing that they were switched at birth 38 years ago, leading to a lawsuit against the North Dakota hospital where the mix-up occurred. Waterpark Wedding: Terry concluded by sharing about a North Dakota couple who renewed their wedding vows at a Wisconsin water park, attempting to set a Guinness record for the most vow renewals in 30 days by taking multiple rides down a 60-foot water slide while wearing wedding attire. Jill's Trivia Quiz The group conducted a Simpsons trivia quiz where Jill asked questions about the show’s characters, episodes, and references to Star Wars. Terry's Top 10 List Terry presented a humorous top 10 list titled “15 Funny Things to Do if You Encounter a UFO,” which included suggestions like asking about Wi-Fi, offering a Taco Bell tour, and inquiring about missing socks.

Keith explained his preference for Dragon with the J-thanks Say script due to its command layer functionality, while Terry shared his experience with Windows Narrator. They also talked about accessible games for the blind and challenges with Voiceover on iOS devices. Email and Final Thoughts Keith shared an email about a farmer carrying supplies home while being offered assistance by a suspicious elderly woman. Another email was about an Englishman and an Irishman who used clever tactics to “steal” buns from a bakery without taking them physically, demonstrating wit and charm over dishonesty. The first voicemail shared by Keith was about a cat named Felix Martinez who was mistakenly registered to vote and subsequently summoned for jury duty, leading to a humorous series of events with the county clerk and vet before the error was resolved. Another voicemail involved a little girl who earned a prize elephant. As usual we wrapped it all up with our final thoughts, although Terry had some technical difficulties in contributing.

Farming dominated the Zuid Afrikaanse Republiek economy in the 1880s, even after gold was discovered in the eastern Transvaal but that was about to change. Last episode we heard about the early gold finds around Rustenburg which was part of the Witwatersrand Ward back in the late 1800s. Farms along the Ridge of White Waters had a fairly steady supply of water courtesy of the many springs that could be found along the ridge. Still, the freezing winters and the lack of wood meant the region was not in high demand despite water and fairly good soils. By 1886 dozens of diggers began arriving on the Witwatersrand, having heard reports of the earlier finds and growing tired of the limited options available in Pilgrims Rest. Others made their way from the south, from Kimberley or the coast, trekking on foot. Two of those were the George's I mentioned in episode 284 .. George Harrison and George Walker, who walked from the Orange Free State who had decided to chance their luck in Barberton. If it were possible and we teleported ourselves back to this time, we would have come across hundreds of other fortune seekers tramping across the countryside, determined to strike it lucky. George Harrison is a bit of a mystery. He was Australian, or perhaps more accurately, an Englishman who'd live in Australia and joined the gold rush there, failed to find any treasure, then read about the Eastern Transvaal Barberton and Pilgrim's Rest discoveries and made a B-line for South Africa. We don't know much more about Harrison's origin story. George Walker on the other hand had quite an extensive CV — born in Wigan in England in 1853, he made his way to Kimberley in 1879 but had little luck digging for diamonds. He joined a British cavalry contingent during the Anglo-Zulu war and fought in Zululand, after which he rode off to Pilgrim's Rest and Kaapsehoop to dig for gold. Coal had been discovered in large quantities in the Free State, and he first took up a job at the Witrand Coal Mine near Kroonstad, where he met Elizabeth Johanna Catharina Pretorius and the couple married in 1883. It was there that George Harrison bumped into him on his great trek from Kimberley to the eastern Transvaal gold fields and the two decided to try their luck one more time at Barberton. George Walker left his wife Catharina and children in Potchefstroom, and joined Harrison for their trek to Barberton. They broke their journey on the Witwatersrand, deciding to earn more cash to set themselves up with a wagon, horses and other necessities before heading on to Barberton. It just so happened that the Struben brothers were looking for builders around their Confidence Mine, which as you heard last episode, was somewhat of a misnomer. When Hendrik Potgieter and other Voortrekker reconnaissance parties arrived along the Vaal and Witwatersrand in 1836, battles followed, eventually the Ndebele were pushed out the Transvaal completely and ended up in Zimbabwe. The two Georges would have been aware of the Potgieter saga, but blissfully unaware of the pre-history as they wondered through Langlaagte Farm. Originally 2 260 Morgan in size, It had been broken up into four portions. In common with other pastoral communities across Southern Africa, Boer custom stipulated that marriage entailed a land grant or farm subdivision for every son. The difference is most African communities relied on the King or Chief assigning land, whereas in the Boers case, it was the grandfather, or the father. Portion A was owned by Andries Breedt, Portion B by Anna Elizabeth de Beer Mulder - her maiden name was Oosthuizen - Portion C by Gerhardus Oosthuizen, and Portion D by the widow Petronella Oosthuizen and her son, Jan Hendrick Oosthuizen. Portion D was where Harrison was working, building the widow and her son their home. George Walker and George Harrison strolled onto Gerhardus' Oosthuizen's Portion C property, when they stumbled on a well weathered outcrop of rock.
A modern history--I think the first one of the podcast! Bijan Omrani's 2025 book God is an Englishman presented a thesis that I couldn't resist, that the history of England can't be unwoven from Christianity, and to ignore the Church is to reject all the things that make England English. We take a look at the basis of Omrani's argument, and a closer look at a few aspects of English life: art, literature, architecture, and education. I think Omrani makes a good case. He's a church warden as well as an historian, and he calls to question the idea that a purely secular England can remain the country that he loves. It's an interesting argument, especially at a time when Christianity in particular is being driven from public life in England. He's at his best when examining history, and weaker as he tries to reconcile himself to the current atmosphere of England, prescribing more compromise in hopes of turning the culture, regaining things like commonly sung hymns or a shared ideal of beauty.But Englishman offers a solid place to consider culture from. Sometimes I think he stretches his points a little far, but overall it's an interesting take on the origins of culture, the things you just take for granted. They came from somewhere; we reject them at our peril.BOOKS IN THIS EPISODEIs God an Englishman?

Episode 118 In Part 5 of our Whiskey Au Go Go series, the investigation takes a dramatic turn when John Stuart's own brother, Danny, decides to turn him in to police. Was it an attack of conscience, or was Australia's largest-ever reward too tempting to ignore? As detectives close in, a backyard barbecue descends into absolute chaos, a mysterious Englishman named "Doug" repeatedly vanishes as police take John Stuart into custody. Then they catch his closest friend, James Richard Finch. Police say Finch confessed to carrying out the deadly firebombing after being recruited by Stuart. Finch insists the confession was fabricated. With two suspects, two wildly different stories, and allegations of police misconduct already beginning to surface, the case becomes even more complicated. By the end of the episode, investigators believe they've solved Australia's crime of the century—but decades of controversy are only just beginning. Sources for this episode include Geoff Plunkett's excellent book, The Whiskey Au Go Go Massacre: Murder, Arson and the Crime of the Century, along with contemporary reporting and historical records. If you'd like a much deeper dive into the case, we highly recommend the book. As always, keep your exits clear and your fire escapes free of storage.
What if every situation you're facing isn't a test — but an example of what God wants to be for you? Graham Cooke opens the final session of the anatomy of a good fight with the language Jesus came to teach: "You have heard it said, but now I say" — the language of a kingdom that feeds 5,000, raises Lazarus, and separates Joshua and Caleb from the ten spies. Discover why Graham became an Englishman second and a kingdom man first, why days facing witch doctors and warlocks call for the language of joy, and what takes hold of your spirit when you hear God laugh. Then he shares the dream he's practicing majesty for: fifty warriors, one city, owned on behalf of Jesus.Key Scriptures:+ Matthew 5:43-44. "You have heard that it was said, 'You shall love your neighbor and hate your enemy.' But I say to you, love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you."+ John 11:41-43. "So they removed the stone. Then Jesus raised His eyes, and said, 'Father, I thank You that You have heard Me.' ... When He had said these things, He cried out with a loud voice, 'Lazarus, come forth.'"+ Numbers 13:30-31. "Then Caleb quieted the people before Moses and said, 'We should by all means go up and take possession of it, for we will surely overcome it.' But the men who had gone up with him said, 'We are not able to go up against the people, for they are too strong for us.'"+ Romans 10:8-10. "But what does it say? 'The word is near you, in your mouth and in your heart' — that is, the word of faith which we are preaching."+ Proverbs 3:5-6. "Trust in the LORD with all your heart and do not lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge Him, and He will make your paths straight."As always, thanks for listening! ❤️--Want to explore more?
Newt talks with legal scholar Jonathan Turley about his bestseller, Rage and the Republic. Turley reveals why Thomas Paine — flawed, brilliant, nearly impossible to like — was the most fascinating figure he's ever researched, and traces Paine's improbable rise from failed Englishman to "penman of the revolution" under Benjamin Franklin's wing. The conversation turns to the French Revolution's unbound passions versus America's structured path to liberty, drawing uneasy parallels to today's unrest in cities like Minneapolis. Turley and Newt dig into socialism's resurgence among young Americans and Europeans, the EU's bureaucratic unraveling, and the coming disruption from AI and robotics. They close on America's 250th anniversary and what it truly means to be American in a revolutionary age.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Beer discusses "The Pastures," the Schuyler mansion designed and managed by Angelica's mother, Catherine. Unlike most 18th-century women, Angelica received a formal education, a Dutch practice valuing women's business capabilities. Beer notes Angelica's transition from her Dutch identity to the English "Angelica" after visiting New York City. The segment concludes with her elopement with John Carter, an elegant Englishman. Though her father was initially displeased, he leveraged the marriage as a strategic cover during the Revolutionary War. 11799 ROWLANDSON

Text and Be HeardPokies in a “VIP room,” betting screens on every wall, and a machine that lets you place fixed-odds bets without leaving the bar. Australia's gambling environment can feel like the casino came to you, and that's where our conversation with Daniel goes deep fast. Daniel grew up in Liverpool, moved to Australia, and now has over four years free from gambling. He breaks down how slot machines and sports betting are designed for speed, why that speed fuels compulsive gambling, and how easy access turns a normal night out into a relapse risk.We also get personal about what changes when you stop chasing the next win. Daniel talks about trading the old gambler's obsession for purpose: being a present dad to his two young daughters and a supportive husband, even on hard days. We unpack why chasing “happiness” can set you up to feel empty, while chasing contentment and emotional intelligence gives you something you can live with every day. If you've ever felt like you “can't outthink” the urge, you'll recognize what's really happening and why willpower alone isn't a plan.Then we get practical with relapse prevention and early recovery tips: reduce exposure, use self-exclusion, add gambling blocking software, stop carrying cash, and most importantly, tell your people the truth. Daniel shares real moments where friends stopped him from “just one small bet,” protecting him when alcohol and impulse tried to take over. If you want less stress, fewer secrets, and more peace, hit play, subscribe for more recovery conversations, and share this with someone who needs a way out.

Primary elections happened across the country, but some outcomes won't be known for over a week, as California says it will take 10 days for some vote counts to be finalized. How did we put a man on the moon, but a state can't count votes in a day with today's technology? Glenn, Jason, and Rikki discuss some of the outcomes we do know from yesterday, including the possible election of New Jersey House candidate Adam Hamawy (D), whose past puts a security clearance in question. Glenn plays some disturbing footage of Paul Krugman claiming society needs to thoroughly “purge” Trump supporters. Glenn warns of a very dark future if Americans choose this path. Glenn breaks down a recent article on his website, “The Russian Influence Operations Targeting Candace Owens and You,” which exposes the Russian influence that continues to happen to Americans. Glenn warns of the ideological operation that is infiltrating the political Right, disguising itself as patriotism and faith. Glenn discusses the horrific story of Henry Nowak, an 18-year-old Englishman who was stabbed and died while in police custody. Glenn rants against tourists who visit Yellowstone National Park and treat wild bison as selfie props. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
