    From medieval France to ancient Greece, these chilling cases of accused werewolves reveal a dark history where shapeshifting confessions, devil's pacts, and gruesome crimes blurred the line between legend and reality.==========HOUR ONE: On a barren field in the U.S. state of Georgia, five granite slabs rise in a star pattern. Each of them weighs over 20 tons and on top of them, there is a capstone. Nobody knows who built it or why they were placed there, but one popular opinion that their purpose is to guide humanity after a predicted post-apocalyptic event that will come in the not so distant future.  (The American Stonehenge) *** When you think "fairies," what comes to mind? You probably picture an adorable and sparkly creature akin to Disney's Tinker Bell, a lovely - and above all, friendly - presence. You may even want to make contact with them. Unfortunately, glittering humanoids with butterfly wings are the stuff of children's books. Retrace faerie folklore, and you'll discover their secret scary origins. (The Dark Side of Fairies) *** In the Summer of 1949, a geologist named Vadim Kolpakov discovered a strange feature on the surface of the earth in the Bodaibo, Irkutsk, region of South-Eastern Siberia.  Encircled by a largely treed area, this anomaly is oval with a conical crater that contains a small ball-like mound in its middle.  The geologic mystery has baffled scientists who are uncertain of what caused this weird formation. (What Caused the Patomskiy Crater) *** Is there any truth behind the enduring legend of the werewolf? 
(Planet Werewolf) *** The Red Pen==========HOUR TWO: Love, money, divorce, anger, and murder. One Pennsylvania family had it all and then some in the late 1800's. (The Butler County Tragedy) *** Count Saint Germain and Jacques Saint Germain, John and Wayne Carter, the Casket Girls of New Orleans. Despite many years between all of their lives, they all still have one grisly thing in common. All were thought to be, and possibly were, real vampires tied to the Big Easy… a place where real blood-suckers continue to live and roam the streets even now in the twenty-first century. (Vampires of New Orleans) *** They have a long history in the United Kingdom, stalking the moors and fog-carpeted streets in the night. But it appears hounds from Hell have also made their way to the Americas.

    Have you ever bought a ticket to a show and wondered why the experience still feels strangely disconnected, with one app for ticketing, another for marketing, another for refunds, and a dozen spreadsheets held together by late nights and good intentions? In this episode of Tech Talks Daily, I'm joined by Ritesh Patel, co-founder of Ticket Fairy, to talk about the technology behind live events and why it has lagged behind other industries in some surprisingly familiar ways. Ritesh makes the case that most organizers are operating more like creative founders than corporate operators, building "mini cities" for a weekend with tiny teams, tight budgets, and very little margin for error. That reality shapes every technology decision, and it explains why fragmented tools and siloed data can become a hidden tax on the business. Ritesh walks me through Ticket Fairy's full stack approach, bringing ticketing, marketing, CRM, logistics, and payments into a single system, and why unifying data changes the economics of running an event. We dig into practical examples that go beyond vague AI talk, including how small workflow fixes can speed up entry, improve the on-site experience, and even translate into real revenue uplift once you multiply time savings across thousands of attendees. We also get into where AI agents and large language models are already finding a foothold in events, particularly around unstructured documents like artist specs, supplier agreements, and operational paperwork that can swallow hundreds of hours. Ritesh shares why "AI-native" should mean more than a writing assistant in a text box, and what it looks like when AI becomes an extension of a lean events team, including a prototype voice agent designed to handle common ticket-holder questions without creating new support bottlenecks. If you're interested in the real business mechanics of events, and how SaaS, payments, data, and AI can quietly shape everything from entry lines to repeat attendance, this conversation offers a fresh way to think about an industry that touches all of us, even when we don't think of it as a tech story. And as a bonus, Ritesh leaves a music recommendation that sent me back to an album I had not played in years, Burial's Untrue, with "Archangel" as the track to start with. After listening, tell me this, where do you think unified data and practical AI will make the biggest difference in live experiences over the next couple of years, on the promoter side or the fan side, and why?

What you don't know is what those stories were before someone decided they belonged in the nursery. What we found is not charming. A puppet hanged from an oak tree. Stepsisters carving off their own toes. Children led into the woods to starve. It is bloody, strange, and much harder to forget than the version your parents read to you.

    Send Catherine a text MessageThe Norwegian fairy tale of "Tatterhood" begins as many stories do, with a kingdom that lacks something essential. Each of us lives in a fairy tale kingdom or two, in an orderly system of protocols and social rules that structure both outer and inner worlds. The stability of the kingdom is important. And yet, the structure eventually outlives its usefulness. The old order stagnates, degrades, and loses meaning. The boundaries are too tight and the space feels too small. Because life = change.Something new, something radical, is needed to catalyze a necessary renewal.Support the showEmail Catherine at drcsvehla@mythicmojo.comPost a positive review on apple podcasts!

    In this episode, I'm diving into the real-life side of the tooth fairy—because while the tradition sounds magical, parenting moments don't always go as planned. What happens when the tooth fairy forgets? What if your child wakes up early and the tooth is still under the pillow? I'm sharing why these moments aren't failures at all, but powerful opportunities to connect with our kids and teach them something meaningful about their bodies and growth.   We'll also talk about the pressure parents feel around tooth fairy traditions—especially when money and comparisons get involved. How much should the tooth fairy leave? Does it even matter?

    This week we welcome Dr. Mike Fidanza from Penn State University, a globally recognized authority on fairy ring in turf. Our conversation digs into how this fungus establishes itself in the soil and why the traditional explanations only tell part of the story.For years, fairy ring was blamed solely on decomposing organic matter. While that plays a role, Dr. Fidanza explains why the issue runs deeper. He challenges the idea that carbon-based fertility causes fairy ring and instead points to the complexity of the soil biome and microbial interactions.Much of his current research focuses on how soil biology, moisture management, and drought stress influence the development and severity of the disease. He recently explored these themes in Golf Course Industry in his article, The Interactions of Plant Soil Microbes Under Drought Stress.A key takeaway from our discussion is that fairy ring often thrives where biological processes are not fully supported. When nitrification slows and ammonium lingers, fungi can take advantage of that imbalance. Healthy biological activity helps keep nutrient cycling moving and reduces the conditions that favor disease.This conversation reinforces what we've long discussed: managing turf challenges starts below the surface. Soil biology, carbon availability, and balanced nutrient cycling all play a critical role in creating resilient turf systems.Visit EarthWorks at: https://www.earthworksturf.com Podcasts: https://www.earthworksturf.com/earthworks-podcasts/ 2 Minute Turf Talks: https://www.earthworksturf.com/2-minute-turf-talks/

    Not far beyond Dublin's busy streets lies a landscape of forest trails, heather-covered hills, and stories that stretch back thousands of years. The Dublin Mountains are closer than most visitors realize – and packed with history, mythology, and unforgettable views. trail in the Dublin Mountainsphoto courtesy of Ben Shorten, My Bike or Hike; used with permission This article is based on podcast episode 327 featuring Ben Shorten, owner of My Bike of Hike, guided tours around the Dublin area delivered in a sustainable way. Use the player below to listen or scroll to continue reading the article and get resource links. Dublin Mountains: An Easy City Escape with Ancient Stories The Dublin Mountains form the northern edge of a granite mountain range that stretches nearly 90 miles through Leinster. While they're often overshadowed by their Wicklow neighbors, this is where the range actually begins – right in South County Dublin. The rounded granite hills make for accessible hill walking rather than extreme hiking. Trails are generally approachable for anyone with a reasonable level of fitness, making this a fantastic half-day or full-day addition to a Dublin itinerary. From many vantage points you'll enjoy: Sweeping views over Dublin City and the suburbs Panoramas across Dublin Bay and the Irish Sea Scenic outlooks into the Wicklow Mountains Forest walks and open heathland On a clear day, the views alone are worth the trip. Getting to the Dublin Mountains Without a Car Yes, you can reach the Dublin Mountains by public transport. Several bus routes connect the city and suburbs to trailheads and nearby villages. Services aren't always as frequent as visitors might hope, but options are steadily improving. With a little planning (and a quick online search), it's entirely possible to spend the day hill walking without renting a car. That accessibility makes the Dublin Mountains one of the easiest outdoor escapes from the capital. Prehistoric Tombs Older Than the Pyramids Here's where things get fascinating. On many of the Dublin Mountains' summits, you'll find prehistoric megalithic burial tombs, many of which predate the Egyptian pyramids and even Stonehenge. There's often little signage. No grand visitor center. Sometimes just a mound of stones quietly resting at the top of a hill. But these sites may be 5,000 years old. Fairy Castle cairnphoto courtesy of Ben Shorten, My Bike or Hike; used with permission One notable example sits atop a mountain commonly called Fairy Castle (also known historically by several names, including from the Irish language). The mound is believed to be an ancient tomb—possibly a passage tomb—yet it has never been excavated. What lies beneath remains a mystery. That sense of standing somewhere sacred and ancient, largely undisturbed, is powerful. You're quite literally walking where people walked thousands of years ago. Where Mythology, History & Archaeology Meet In the Dublin Mountains, it's common for prehistory, documented history, and Irish mythology to overlap. Mountains like Seefin and Seefingan (names derived from Irish) are linked to legends of Fionn Mac Cumhaill and the Fianna. According to mythology, these were hunting grounds and even “seats” of the great warrior himself. Climb the hill and you may find: A prehistoric tomb A mythological story tied to the summit Historical records from later centuries Few places weave together so many layers of story in one location. Hellfire Clubphoto courtesy of Ben Shorten, My Bike or Hike; used with permission The Hellfire Club on Montpelier Hill If there's one Dublin Mountains site many visitors have heard of, it's the Hellfire Club. Perched on Montpelier Hill, the remains of an 18th-century hunting lodge overlook the city with spectacular views. The lodge was built in 1725 by William Conolly, once one of the wealthiest men in Ireland. Local lore says that stones from a prehistoric tomb were used in its construction. Soon after it was built, legends claim the roof blew off – a punishment, some said, for disturbing ancient ground. Later, the building was associated with the notorious Hellfire Club, a group of aristocrats rumored to have hosted wild and possibly sinister gatherings there. While hard evidence is limited, the stories have endured for centuries. Today, visitors can walk up Montpelier Hill, explore the structure, and imagine the layers of history – prehistoric ritual site, 18th-century hunting lodge, and legendary meeting place. It's atmospheric, dramatic, and one of the best viewpoints near Dublin. Exploring the Dublin Mountains with a Local Guide Ben Shorten, owner of My Bike or Hike, offers guided experiences throughout Dublin – city, coast, countryside, and mountains – with a strong focus on local connection and sustainability. His approach includes: Supporting small, family-run businesses Using public transport where possible Sharing deep local knowledge and storytelling Introducing visitors to lesser-known but equally rewarding locations Rather than focusing only on the most crowded attractions, his tours highlight places that are just as meaningful – often with far fewer people. Tours can be booked directly through the website, and custom experiences are available upon request. The Dublin Mountains hikes are open to visitors and suitable for a wide range of fitness levels. Follow the adventures on Facebook and Instagram. 3 Places to Visit in the Dublin Mountains If you're heading into the hills, here are three locally loved spots worth adding to your plans: Hazel House (A Place to Eat)A cozy, family-run café tucked into the Dublin Mountains. Hazel House is known for rustic meals and produce grown in their own polytunnels.After a hill walk, there's nothing better than a hearty lunch made with local ingredients. Sophie's Sauna in Glenasmole (A Place to Enjoy)A newly opened hot-and-cold sauna experience hidden in the Glenasmole Valley. It's quickly become a favorite for those looking to relax after a hike – or simply soak in the mountain surroundings in a different way.Bonus: Sophie, the sheep (who thinks she's a dog), might greet you. Ollie's Honey Farm (A Place to Learn)Visit a local beekeeper producing award-winning honey from hives throughout the Dublin Mountains.Tours allow visitors to learn about beekeeping, taste truly local honey, and even suit up and see the hives up close. It's a hands-on way to connect with the landscape – through its flowers, bees, and flavors. The Dublin Mountains may sit just outside the city, but they feel a world away. Whether you're chasing panoramic views, ancient tombs, mythological tales, or a bowl of homemade soup after a hill walk, this landscape delivers. And once you stand on a summit overlooking Dublin Bay, it's hard to believe more people don't add it to their itinerary.

    Do you remember losing your first tooth? The excitement… or maybe the fear? In this episode, I'm inviting you to look at the tooth fairy in a completely different way—not as a cute childhood myth or a simple money exchange, but as a powerful opportunity to shape how our kids relate to their bodies, growth, and self-worth.   We're talking about the hidden messages behind “you lost a tooth,” the transactional trap of cash-for-teeth, and how a small shift in language can plant seeds for lifelong health, confidence, and body awareness. This isn't about canceling the tooth fairy—it's about being intentional with the moment. Because sometimes the smallest traditions carry the biggest impact.   Before your child loses their next tooth, pause and ask yourself: What message do I want to send in this moment? Because it's not just about the tooth—it's about the story they'll carry forward about their body and themselves.   If this episode made you think differently about a small but powerful parenting moment, I'd love for you to rate, follow, share, and leave a review of the podcast. It helps more parents join the Healthy Mouth Movement—and start creating intentional change, one tiny tooth at a time.

(but thanks for that quote anyway). Hosted by Klein, Ally, and a cast of weirdos (both on the team and from their audience), the show is known for its raw, offbeat style, offering a mix of sarcastic banter, candid interviews, and an unfiltered take on everything from culture to the chaos of everyday life. With a loyal, engaged fanbase and an addiction for pushing boundaries, the show delivers the perfect blend of humor and insight, all while keeping things fun, fresh, and sometimes a little bit illegal. 2024 © 2021 Audacy, Inc.
