Podcasts about Finding Me

The Devil's Ledger — Week of May 25th, 2026 This Memorial Day, we take a moment to honor the true meaning behind the holiday—remembering those who made the ultimate sacrifice in service to our country. Then, in The Creepiest Thing I Heard This Week, we head to Los Angeles and explore the infamous Rosenheim Mansion—better known as the “Murder House” from American Horror Story. A historic home turned horror icon, its legacy blurs the line between fiction and reality, leaving one unsettling question: does a place become haunted… simply because we believe it is? Over on The Devil Within, Season Five (What We Built… And What We Buried) continues with Episode 7—a deep dive into the legendary “car that ran on water.” Was it a revolutionary breakthrough, an elaborate hoax, or something quietly buried by industries that couldn't afford to let it succeed? Criminal Mischief is off this week, but Carolyn returns next episode. In the meantime, don't miss Evio Creative's newest hit, The Culture of Criminal Cool, following the rise and fall of drug kingpin Adam Diaz.

This Week in Horror: The biggest Memorial Day weekend opening for a horror film belongs to A Quiet Place Part II (2021), which earned $57 million.

The Devil Within Prayers for the Damned — Episode Two: The Exorcism That Broke the Church's Silence In August 1928, Father Theophilus Riesinger arrived at a secluded convent in Earling, Iowa. He believed he was performing an exorcism. Instead, he walked into a spiritual war that had been building for 105 years. Episode Two documents the most detailed and widely reported exorcism in American history — a twenty-three-day ordeal that tested the limits of ritual, endurance, and belief. This episode explores: Anna Ecklund's condition upon arrival at the convent Reports of multiple entities speaking through her voice Supernatural strength, levitation, and unknown languages Psychological warfare against priests and nuns The emotional and physical toll on everyone involved A radical shift in strategy: instead of fighting the demons… allowing them to reveal themselves As the entities expose their methods and motives, a disturbing possibility emerges: Anna isn't just possessed. She's a spiritual anchor — the center of a network of damage spread over decades. The Turning Point Father Riesinger abandons traditional exorcism. Instead of resistance, he allows full manifestation — a dangerous gamble that ultimately reveals the limits of the forces inside her. On December 23, 1928, at 3:17 PM, Anna speaks in her own voice for the first time in more than a century. The voices are gone. But the victory comes at a cost. Themes in This Episode The psychological toll of prolonged spiritual conflict Institutional faith pushed to its breaking point The idea that some possessions are transformations, not conditions A haunting question: If suffering defines a person, what remains when it's removed? Anna lived twelve more years after the exorcism — quiet, withdrawn, and described by witnesses as spiritually “translucent.” Saved. But never the same. Call to Action If this story challenged your understanding of faith, evil, and the human mind: Because sometimes the real horror isn't possession… It's the price of being set free.

The Devil Within Prayers for the Damned — Episode One: The Girl Who Wouldn't Stay Saved At 3:17 AM, the screaming stopped. For twenty-three days, a convent in Earling, Iowa endured sounds that tested the limits of faith — inhuman voices, violent manifestations, and a woman whose suffering stretched back more than a century. But the story of Anna Ecklund didn't begin in America. It began in a remote Austrian village… with a father's betrayal. Episode Overview In Episode One, we follow the origins of what would become America's most documented case of demonic possession. This episode explores: Emma Schmidt's childhood in 19th-century Austria The abuse and trauma that preceded her first possession in 1823 Early exorcism attempts by local priests Strange phenomena: foreign languages, supernatural knowledge, violent reactions to sacred objects The role of occult practices allegedly performed by her father and a local witch The growing isolation of a family marked by fear, shame, and suspicion The Church's early failures — and the long shadow those failures would cast As Emma becomes Anna Ecklund and emigrates to America, her symptoms disappear for years… until the darkness returns — stronger, more organized, and waiting. Themes in This Episode The intersection of trauma, faith, and possession Generational sin and spiritual consequence When religious intervention fails — and what that does to belief How a single case can ripple through communities, clergy, and institutions What Comes Next By 1928, Anna is sixty-nine years old. The Church prepares for one final attempt. It will take twenty-three days. And it will change how the Catholic Church understands possession forever.

The Devil Within Frozen Evidence: The Duncan MacPherson Case In August of 1989, Duncan MacPherson — a former first-round NHL draft pick from Canada — stepped onto the Stubai Glacier in the Austrian Alps. He rented a snowboard. He rode the lifts. And then he vanished. His car remained in the resort parking lot. His belongings were untouched. Search teams scoured the glacier and surrounding terrain, assuming the kind of tragedy the mountains know too well — a fall, a crevasse, an accident swallowed by ice. Nothing was found. For fourteen years, the glacier kept its silence. Then, in the summer of 2003, melting ice revealed human remains. The mountain had given Duncan back. But what emerged raised more questions than answers.  This episode of The Devil Within explores the unsettling details surrounding Duncan MacPherson's disappearance and recovery, including:     •    His final known movements at a managed glacier resort — not remote wilderness     •    The condition of his recovered snowboard, which showed crushing damage that some analysts believe could be consistent with heavy machinery     •    Injuries that did not clearly align with a simple fall     •    Questions about nighttime snowcat operations on the glacier     •    And the most troubling possibility: that elements of his rental equipment may have been returned through resort systems long before his body emerged No definitive conclusion has ever been reached. But the case raises a disturbing question: What if Duncan's tragedy began as an accident… and was complicated by human systems that chose silence over scrutiny? Glaciers preserve what they take. But time can erode records, memories, and accountability. Fourteen years later, the ice returned a body. The truth may still be buried.

The Devil's Ledger – Week of February 16 Welcome back to The Devil's Ledger — your weekly guide to everything happening across the Evio Creative universe.  As we head into the second week of the Winter Games, we're sending a big congratulations to all of our U.S. Olympians still competing — and if you suddenly find yourself understanding the strategy behind curling, you're not alone.  This week's edition begins, as always, with The Creepiest Thing I Heard This Week — a chilling look at the 1959 Dyatlov Pass Incident, where nine experienced hikers fled their tent barefoot into subzero temperatures after encountering what investigators later described only as a “compelling natural force.” Some believe the group may have encountered something else entirely — a mysterious humanoid figure long rumored in the region's winter forests.  On The Devil Within We travel to a remote stone sanctuary in northern Italy to examine a centuries-old Ex-Voto painting — a devotional image created to commemorate a miracle. The artwork depicts the exact moment an exorcism was believed to succeed, including an artist's rendering of a dark, serpentine figure leaving a woman's body. Faith, psychology, or something more?  On The Ides of April We conclude our two-part series on the assassination of Philip of Macedon — a political killing that may have changed the course of human history. His death didn't stop expansion. It removed the one man who might have restrained his son, unleashing Alexander the Great on the known world.  On Taboo Treasures Bruce and Jef return with a fun and surprising deep dive into the strange origins and evolution of Valentine's Day — from ancient rituals to modern traditions.  On Criminal Mischief Carolyn Ossorio brings the latest updates in the ongoing search for Nancy Guthrie, breaking down new clues, updated timelines, and expert analysis from law enforcement professionals.  And every day… You can check in with Josh Wolf on Finding Me with Josh Wolf — a daily podcast journal documenting his honest journey toward becoming the best version of himself.  This Week in Horror Diabolic, a 2026 Australian supernatural horror film directed by Daniel J. Phillips, opened in limited theaters on February 13 and begins streaming February 20. The story follows a woman who returns to a restrictive religious community to address trauma-induced blackouts — only to encounter a vengeful witch with unfinished business. 

Irish trance powerhouse Ciaran McAuley returns to the ASOT show with his deeply personal new album, Finding Me — a powerful statement of identity, growth, and emotional honesty. Known for his soaring melodies and uplifting energy, Ciaran blends heartfelt vocals with cinematic builds to create a journey that's both intimate and euphoric.

The Devil Within Tatzelwurm —The Thing That Watches From the Snowline High above the tree line, where oxygen thins and old superstitions thicken, something has been slithering through European folklore for centuries. This week on The Devil Within, we journey into the jagged spine of the Alps — a place of avalanches, isolation… and sightings of a creature that by all rights should not exist. It has the body of a serpent. The face of a cat. The temper of something ancient and territorial. They call it The Tatzelwurm.

April's Shadow : “The Balcony in Memphis” In Episode One of this two-part Ides of April event series, we step into Memphis, 1968—not as a footnote in civil rights history, but as a pressure cooker where the fight for equality evolves into something even more threatening to power: economic justice. Martin Luther King Jr. comes to Memphis to support the sanitation workers' strike, sparked by the horrific deaths of Echol Cole and Robert Walker, and fueled by a single, uncompromising demand—human dignity—carried through the streets on signs that read: I AM A MAN. As King's mission expands from civil rights leader into a broader advocate for labor and class justice, the atmosphere darkens and the stakes intensify. Memphis becomes a mirror reflecting America's deepest fear: that justice may require redistribution—not just of rights, but of power. The episode moves into the prophetic gravity of King's final night. At Mason Temple, he delivers the iconic “Mountaintop” speech—part sermon, part warning—before returning to the Lorraine Motel. The next day, a moment of ordinary life becomes a national rupture: 6:01 PM on the balcony outside Room 306. And in the hour after his death, America ignites—grief spilling into unrest and reckoning—while the machinery of investigation begins turning, hunting for a suspect as the country struggles to make meaning out of the impossible. In this episode     •    Why Memphis became the inevitable battleground in 1968     •    The sanitation strike, labor, and the radical power of I AM A MAN     •    King's evolution into a leader focused on class justice     •    The “Mountaintop” speech and the calm before catastrophe     •    The assassination, the aftermath, and the beginning of the manhunt

Criminal Mischief — Episode Title TBD The Brendan Banfield Trial: Power, Deception, and an Alleged Double Life This week on Criminal Mischief, Carolyn takes listeners inside the courtroom as the trial unfolds for Brendan Banfield, a Virginia federal law enforcement officer accused in what prosecutors describe as a brutal and calculated murder plottargeting his wife. According to court filings and testimony presented so far, investigators allege Banfield was involved in a scheme that centered around a secret relationship with the couple's live-in nanny — a woman who, prosecutors claim, became an alleged accomplice in the crime. The case has drawn national attention not only because of the shocking nature of the allegations, but because it involves a man sworn to uphold the law. Carolyn breaks down the prosecution's theory of the case, the defense's early arguments, and the disturbing portrait emerging from witness testimony. As the trial continues, jurors are being asked to weigh questions of motive, manipulation, and whether a hidden double life can turn deadly. With explosive courtroom revelations and emotional testimony from people close to the case, this episode examines how power, secrecy, and betrayal can collide in the most devastating ways — and why cases like this captivate and horrify the public in equal measure. In this episode:     •    Who Brendan Banfield is and the role he held in federal law enforcement     •    The allegations surrounding the death of his wife     •    The alleged involvement of the family's live-in nanny     •    Key testimony and evidence presented in court so far     •    What happens next as the trial moves forward Content Warning This episode discusses allegations of homicide and domestic violence.

CRIMINAL MISCHIEF The Murder of Agent Camarena: The Cartel That Woke the Giant This week on Criminal Mischief, Carolyn takes listeners inside one of the most brutal and consequential crimes of the modern drug war — the kidnapping, torture, and murder of dedicated DEA agent Enrique “Kiki” Camarena Salazar, carried out at the behest of the Guadalajara Cartel in the mid-1980s. Camarena wasn't just another name on a case file. He was a husband, a father, and an agent who believed that justice mattered — even when the forces he was up against had infinite money, political influence, and a willingness to destroy anyone who stood in their way. But what cartel leaders didn't anticipate… was what would happen next. Because Camarena's murder didn't end with silence. It triggered something rare: a full-force response from the United States government — an investigation so vast and relentless it became one of the DEA's largest murder hunts in history, stretching across borders and years. What followed was not just law enforcement — it was pursuit. A slow, grinding campaign of pressure, intelligence, and endurance designed to make sure the people responsible could never fully disappear into the world they'd built. For this episode, Carolyn interviews a retired DEA agent who had a front row seat for more than 30 years of the so-called “war on drugs” — offering firsthand insight into how cartel power really functions, what justice looks like when it takes decades, and what it costs the men and women who spend their lives trying to hold the line. This one is heavy. It's infuriating. And it's essential listening. Content Warning This episode includes discussion of kidnapping, torture, and murder.

THE DEVIL WITHIN — The Wrong Road (Part Two) Months after the Mercury Montego was discovered abandoned in the snow, searchers find something deeper in the forest: A U.S. Forest Service trailer. Inside is everything that could have saved them—bunks, blankets, matches, propane… and enough food to keep multiple men alive for weeks. And in the back room—wrapped carefully in sheets—are the remains of Ted Weiher. He didn't die quickly. He likely survived for weeks. The horror of this story isn't supernatural. It isn't even mysterious. It's unbearably human. Part Two examines the theories, the folklore, and why people need this to be a conspiracy—because the truth is harder to accept: that confusion, fear, and rigid obedience to “rules” can trap a person even when salvation is right in front of them. This is not a whodunit. It's a warning.

THE DEVIL WITHIN — The Wrong Road (Part One) Five young men leave a college basketball game on February 24, 1978—excited for the Special Olympics tournament waiting the next morning. They should have been home within hours. Instead, they drive into the Sierra Nevada foothills… and the road begins to climb. In Part One, we follow the Yuba County Five—Gary Mathias, Bill Sterling, Ted Weiher, Jack Huett, and Jack Madruga—as the night quietly turns hostile. A familiar drive becomes unfamiliar territory. A dependable car becomes a stranded shelter. And the most unsettling part isn't what happened to them… …it's what they did next. The Mercury Montego wasn't wrecked. It wasn't empty. It could have kept them alive. But they abandoned it—walking uphill into the darkness, away from help, into a forest that swallowed logic and sound. This isn't the story of a killer hiding in the trees. It's a story about panic, cold, and how winter can turn the human mind against itself. Part Two is coming next—deep in the forest, where the real questions begin.

This week, burnout is the starting point and everything else flows from there. The hosts unpack the exhaustion that comes from juggling work, life, and the constant pressure to stay functional in a world that rarely slows down. What begins as a conversation about overwork quickly expands into a broader discussion about labor, fairness, and preserving one's peace. Inspired by a Reddit post about a Dutch employee pushing back against an American boss's expectation to work nights and weekends, the ladies dive into a series of AITA: Work Edition scenarios. They weigh in on office culture, workplace boundaries, and the often-overlooked labor happening at home, questioning whose contributions are valued, whose are dismissed, and why. The conversation takes a detour into gender dynamics, emotional labor, and long-term relationships, including a reflection on whether people sometimes stay with abusive partners in the hope that time, aging, or change will soften them. Referencing Viola Davis's Finding Me, the hosts explore the complicated idea of retribution, repair, and what accountability looks like when harm has already been done. Messy, honest, and reflective, this episode uses humor, judgment, and collective side-eye as tools for survival..because sometimes the best way to stay sane is to laugh, decompress, and judge strangers together.

Criminal Mischief - The Torso Killer Talks! In this episode of Criminal Mischief, Carolyn returns to one of the most disturbing and long-running cases in modern American criminal history: The Torso Killer, Richard Cottingham. After decades of suspicion, denials, and unanswered questions, Cottingham has now admitted to an additional murder—a development that reignites public scrutiny and raises fresh questions about how many victims may still remain unaccounted for. Carolyn breaks down what this new admission means, why it matters, and what investigators and advocates have been pushing for all along: accountability, documentation, and the truth—no matter how late it comes. To deepen the conversation, Carolyn sits down with serial killer historian and author Peter Vronsky (author of The Golden Age of Serial Killers), one of the voices who has helped keep pressure on law enforcement and institutions to continue revisiting Cottingham's case. Together, they explore the cultural, institutional, and investigative forces that allowed serial predators like Cottingham to operate—and why these cases so often remain unresolved for decades. This is an episode about belated truth, persistent advocacy, and the chilling reality that, in some cases, the full story may still be unfolding. In This Episode     •    Carolyn's latest update on Richard Cottingham, “The Torso Killer”     •    Cottingham's recent admission to an additional murder     •    What this means for the broader list of suspected victims     •    Interview with historian and author Richard Vronsky (The Golden Age of Serial Killers)     •    Why ongoing pressure matters—even decades later Listen / Follow Follow Criminal Mischief to stay current on ongoing investigations, case updates, and deep-dive interviews.

The Devil's Ledger — January 12, 2026 The Dead Time of WinterWelcome back to The Devil's Ledger — and to the cold dead heart of winter. For the next six weeks, the world slows down, the nights stretch longer, and the quiet gets louder. Stay alert, stay calm… and stay inside. This week, on The Devil Within, we launch a two-part series on one of the most haunting disappearances in American true crime: The Yuba County Five. Five young men leave a basketball game in 1978 and take the wrong road into the mountains. Their car is found abandoned — functional, not wrecked, and capable of sheltering them — but they left it behind and walked uphill into the snow. No killer. No chase. Just winter, fear, and the terrible power of confusion. On The Ides of April, we conclude The Quiet Death of an Empire with Part Two of the assassination of Tsar Nicholas II, and examine the enduring controversy that Anastasia may have survived the bloodbath. This week on Criminal Mischief, Carolyn delivers an update on the so-called Torso Killer case from New York and New Jersey in the 1970s — including a new jailhouse confession and an exclusive interview with Dr. Peter Vronsky, the author and expert who literally wrote the book on the Golden Age of serial killers. The boys from Taboo Treasures are still on winter break, but they'll be back soon. In This Week in Horror, we recommend We Bury the Dead — a chilling zombie film where a military mistake sparks catastrophe… and the cover-up doesn't go as planned. And don't miss our new daily show on the network: Finding Me with Josh Wolf — honest, hilarious, and quickly becoming a must-listen. See you this week across the Evio universe.

The Devil's Ledger — January 5, 2026 Happy New Year — and welcome back. We're kicking off 2026 with a chilling slate across the Evio universe. We start with The Creepiest Thing I Heard This Week — a winter nightmare from Japan about the Yuki-onna, the mysterious “snow woman” who appears during blizzards… and quietly breathes the warmth out of anyone who helps her. Then, on The Devil Within, we open a two-part investigation into the 1955 Kelly–Hopkinsville encounter — the farmhouse siege that helped shape modern alien mythology. Over on The Ides of April, we begin our deep dive into the fall of Tsar Nicholas II and the brutal end of the Romanov dynasty. History turns fast — and it doesn't look back. The guys from Taboo Treasures are still shaking off the holidays — they'll be back next week with something wild. This week on Criminal Mischief, we examine the disappearance of Anna Walshe — a mother of three whose New Year's Day “work emergency” unraveled into something far darker. A true can't-miss. And in This Week in Horror, we're talking PRIMATE — the pet-turned-predator creature feature that feels like CUJO's unhinged cousin.

Finding Me with Josh Wolf — Episode 1 “Somewhere Between Who I Am and Who I'm Trying to Be” In the debut episode of Finding Me, comedian, storyteller, and accidental philosopher Josh Wolf opens the door a little wider than usual — and invites us into the messier parts of becoming a better version of yourself. This isn't a “self-help” show. There are no gurus. No miracle hacks. Just a guy taking an honest look at his choices, patterns, wins, screw-ups, and the lingering question: Am I still headed in the direction I actually want to go? Josh digs into what life has taught him so far — and what he still wants to fix. Patience. Ego. Old habits that show up wearing new costumes. The uncomfortable work of slowing down long enough to hear the truth you've been avoiding. We also follow Josh through different cities — from LA to New York to Nashville — and into the world of people living on the margins. He reflects on how homelessness looks and feels different from place to place, and what happens when you stop walking past people and start listening to them. Then there's the night in Seattle. A quiet bar. A strange conversation. And a mysterious man who calls himself: “The Architect of Time.” Was he a philosopher? A drifter? Something else? Or just someone who showed up at the exact moment Josh needed to hear what he said? Episode one sets the tone: curious, vulnerable, funny, occasionally weird — and always searching. Follow, subscribe, and come along for the journey. Because sometimes, finding yourself starts with finally paying attention.
