    Left wing YouTuber Destiny says conservatives need to be afraid of getting killed. In a world where the Left calls the right terrorists, is it odd when they literally endorse terrorism against their political opponents? Sam Hyde, a comedian, took some time to address the Charlie Kirk assassination. We'll cover what he said and why it's so spot on. The Left is tripping over themselves to besmirch Charlie's legacy and blame him for his assassination. Here are some of the lies that the Left has told about Charlie Kirk's positions, and you know we've got receipts.We have made our position on hate speech perfectly clear: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL3e1orPYt_4YYklA4ThxuHQkZFvNn5LuqGUEST: Josh FirestineLink to today's sources: https://www.louderwithcrowder.com/sources-september-16-2025Buy the OG Mug Club Mug on Crowder Shop now! https://crowdershop.com/products/og-mug-club-mugJoin Pure Talk Wireless for $25 a month and get unlimited talk, text and 5 gigs of data on America's most dependable 5G network.Go to https://PureTalk.com/Crowder today for 50% off your first month!DOWNLOAD THE RUMBLE APP TODAY: https://rumble.com/our-appsJoin Rumble Premium to watch this show every day! http://louderwithcrowder.com/PremiumGet your favorite LWC gear: https://crowdershop.com/Bite-Sized Content: https://rumble.com/c/CrowderBitsSubscribe to my podcast: https://rss.com/podcasts/louder-with-crowder/FOLLOW ME: Website: https://louderwithcrowder.com/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/scrowder Instagram: http://www.instagram.com/louderwithcrowder Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/stevencrowderofficialMusic by @Pogo

    Chad Daybell's Love Letters to Tammy EXPOSED: Fiction or Reality? On Hidden Killers Live, Tony Brueski and the crew unpack Letter Two from Chad Daybell's prison writings, where he devotes the entire entry to Tammy Daybell — the wife he was later convicted of conspiring to kill. Chad paints a glowing portrait of their early romance, marriage, and family life. He gushes over their first meeting, the Oingo Boingo and B-52s concerts they attended, and the book company they built together. He describes Tammy as vibrant, kind, and angelic — almost saintlike in his retelling. But the irony is suffocating: this is the same man convicted of orchestrating Tammy's murder, burying children in his backyard, and plotting alongside Lori Vallow in one of the most infamous cult-driven cases in American true crime. The hosts break down the surreal contradictions. How does a man convicted of family annihilation manage to write love letters that sound like Hallmark scripts? How does nostalgia about “family dance parties” ring when you know what he really did? With sharp banter and biting analysis, this segment reveals the psychological gymnastics of a killer desperate to rewrite his own history. It's unsettling, absurd, and a darkly fascinating glimpse into how Chad Daybell sees himself — and how far he'll go to manipulate even from death row. #ChadDaybell #TammyDaybell #LoriVallow #DaybellTrial #CultCrimes #HiddenKillers #TrueCrimeObsessed #PodcastClips #CourtCase #FamilyMurder Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

    With her amazing new novel, HOT WAX (Simon & Schuster), author, critic, and inveterate road-tripper M.L. Rio evokes the rock scene of the '80s and the travails of the not-quite-Almost-Famous band GIL AND THE KILLS. We talk about the redemptive & destructive power of rock & roll, how music is inseparable from her writing process, the challenge of writing about live performance, why it makes sense that "the girl with the Shakespeare degree is writing a rock & roll novel," and why she couldn't gloss over the sweatiness of touring and road trips. We get into the literature gap of people in their 30s (esp. women), how this novel evolved with her over a decade, what it's like operating in male-dominated spaces like music criticism, why she's going out on a 34-city book tour and trying to make it as fun as a rock tour (including merch!), what it means to be an ethical eavesdropper, how she stays safe (and well fed) while solo road-tripping around America, and the joy of radio crime drama. We also discuss the obsessiveness of record collectors, the loss of nuance in literature, the warping influence of Catholicism (and the perils of reading Shakespeare and Bret Easton Ellis way too young), our first concerts (her: Green Day, me: Asia), and a lot more.

    On Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Avik Chakraborty talks with David L Cary, author of The Well Chronicles—including Maria's Shadow and The Veil Strikes. We unpack why he writes fast-paced, clean thrillers rooted in faith, justice, and resilience, how he portrays human trafficking without graphic detail, and why Book 3 aims for a decisive “good wins” conclusion. A direct conversation for readers who want suspense without explicit content, and for creators navigating moral stakes, hope, and responsible storytelling.   About the Guest   David L Cary is the author of The Well Chronicles, a clean-thriller series blending high-octane action with themes of faith, courage, and justice. His novels—Maria's Shadow and The Veil Strikes—confront trafficking and systemic corruption while avoiding graphic content. He's currently finishing Book 3. Find him as DLCary on Goodreads, and “David L Cary” on Amazon and Facebook.   Key Takeaways: Clean doesn't mean dull: Cary proves you can deliver Hollywood-pace suspense without profanity, graphic sex, or gore—and still keep readers turning pages. Ethical storytelling:Maria's Shadow addresses human trafficking with sensitivity—no explicit scenes—inviting reflection without retraumatization. Violence with restraint: Characters face real danger and death, but graphic depictions are omitted, preserving intensity and accessibility for broader audiences. Faith as framework: Cary's worldview centers grace over greed and the conviction that hope matters, even when darkness is real. From headlines to fiction:The Veil Strikes mirrors contemporary concerns—blackmail, shadow groups, institutional rot—while staying fictional and responsibly framed. Reader imagination > shock value: Suggestion and context let readers grasp stakes without explicit content, aligning with platform standards. Series arc with closure: Book 3 aims for an uncommon choice in political thrillers: accountability and resolution, not a cover-up. Why this matters: For viewers seeking faith-aligned, socially aware fiction, Cary models how to write page-turners that respect boundaries and still challenge systems.   Connect with the Guest   Goodreads: Search “DLCary” Amazon Author Page: Search “David L Cary The Well Chronicles” Facebook: Search “David L Cary” (match the author photo used on Amazon/Goodreads)   Want to be a guest on Healthy Mind, Healthy Life?

"Set in post-Katrina New Orleans, this hour-long drama series, from executive producers David Simon and Eric Overmyer, follows the lives of ordinary residents as they struggle with the after-effects of the 2005 hurricane. Says star and New Orleans native Wendell Pierce, 'The only things people had to hang on to were the rich traditions we knew that survived the test of time before: our music, food and family, family that included anyone who decided to accept the challenge to return.' The large ensemble cast is supported by notable real-life New Orleanians, including many of its famous musicians." "Roxanne Harde is Professor of English at the University of Alberta's Augustana Faculty, where she also serves as Associate Dean, Research. A McCalla University Professor, Roxanne researches and teaches American literature and culture, focusing on popular culture, women's writing and children's literature, and Indigenous literature."

The South needs “Yankees.” An ex-Confederate, discussing Alexandria, said: “A dozen live Yankees would regenerate this town, and make fortunes at it.” They would pave the streets, cover in the sewers, build up the vacant spots in the heart of the city, supply mechanical work at less inhuman prices than are now charged, and make this rich and intelligent community as attractive in appearance as the citizens are socially. One such man has made a new city of Alexandria. He has made the people pave their streets, put in modern sewerage, water, electricity, etc., build most creditable structures to house the public officials, and in a word, has “hustled the South,” till it had to put him temporarily out of office until it got its “second wind.” This week in Louisiana history.

Originally aired on February 22, 1955, this broadcast stars Alan Ladd, who reprises his iconic role from the 1953 film of the same name. We'll take a look at the movie that redefined the western genre, talk about the incredible run of Lux Radio Theater, and explore why the 1950s were the golden age of cowboy storytelling. Along the way, we'll cover the film's massive box office success, its impact on the “adult western,” and even how Hollywood managed to make Alan Ladd look larger-than-life—despite being five-foot-six. And as a bonus, stick around after the main goodbye for a little extra cowboy wisdom and humor. Because when it comes to Shane, you never want to leave the campfire too early.
