It's Pride Week, and we're talking about belonging — not just to a community, but to ourselves as gay men. We ask: When did sex stop feeling shameful and start feeling freeing? Steve, Kodi, and Sebastian explore how gay bars, Pride, hookups, leather spaces, chosen family, and queer community helped shape their confidence. The hosts get honest about sexual shame, body image, desire, kink, aging, and the pressure to be “desirable” in gay spaces. We discuss how getting older can bring a deeper, sexier confidence — knowing what you want, what you don't, and no longer apologizing for either. Plus: the beauty and complexity of Pride — celebration, protest, flirtation, connection, and yes, a little shamelessness. A conversation about sex without apology, community without exclusion, and aging into queer power. Hot Topic: Do gays really walk fast and why? Studies show this can also be healthy Hot Topic: Broadway Bares just wrapped supporting HIV and AIDS. Sebastian recounts his time on the sexy stage... Hot Topic: Billy Porter gets real about Fire Island and the infamous 'meat rack'.... Hot Topic: Pornhub: What are we looking up on the platform....the stats are out for Pride...

The Extraordinary Life and Tragic Death of Margaret Fuller. Guest: Bruce Nichols. Bruce Nichols chronicles the life of Margaret Fuller, a pioneering feminist and journalist who served as the first female war correspondent. Fuller's intellectual prowess "wowed" Emerson, though her life ended tragically in a shipwreck off Fire Island. Some scholars believe Hawthorne modeled his character Hester Prynne after her. 12

SCHEDULE THE JOHN BATCHELOR SHOW, 6-18-26.1922Colombia's Presidential Election and Abel de la Espriella. Guest: Mary Anastasia O'Grady. Mary Anastasia O'Grady discusses the upcoming Colombian election and frontrunner Abel de la Espriella. As a lawyer with multiple passports, de la Espriella positions himself as a disruptor similar to Donald Trump or Javier Milei. He advocates for building mega-prisons to confront gangs and reviving the hydrocarbon industry. 1Poverty and Economic Stagnation in Developing Nations. Guest: Veronique de Rugy. Veronique de Rugy examines why countries like the Democratic Republic of Congo remain in extreme poverty. She identifies institutional failures, such as a lack of property rights and predatory governments, as the primary causes of stagnation. Growth, she argues, is the only sufficient element to lift people out of poverty. 2Advancements in Small Satellite Propulsion. Guests: Paulo Lozano and Amelia "Mia" Bruno. Paulo Lozano and Mia Bruno introduce electro-spray thrusters utilizing green ionic liquid monopropellant for small satellites. This technology allows a single tank to fuel both efficient electric and high-thrust chemical maneuvers. Unlike toxic hydrazine, this fuel is safe and allows satellites greater mobility for Earth observation. 3Future Missions for Miniaturized Space Technology. Guests: Paulo Lozano and Amelia "Mia" Bruno. With an unlimited budget, Paulo Lozano envisions a fleet of autonomous small satellites exploring near-Earth asteroids for scientific value. Mia Bruno aims to use improved propulsion to reach the moons of Jupiter and Saturn much faster than current missions allow. They also discuss performing complex orbital plane changes using chemical maneuvers. 4The Normalization of Crisis in Bolivia. Guest: Professor Evan Ellis. Professor Evan Ellis reports on the 49-day blockade in Bolivia that is strangling the economy under President Rodrigo Paz. Driven by Evo Morales and indigenous groups, the protests have caused significant GDP shrinkage and business closures. Despite being resource-rich, the country faces a fiscal crisis as natural gas reserves dwindle. 5Security Challenges in Colombia and Political Transitions in Peru. Guest: Professor Evan Ellis. Evan Ellis discusses the ELN's influence in Colombia, noting that armed group activity has doubled since the 2016 peace agreement. He suggests that restoring security and government presence is vital for the middle class. In Peru, Keiko Fujimori holds a thin lead in a contested election supported by the diaspora. 6The Criminal Landscape in Venezuela and Regional Politics. Guest: Professor Evan Ellis. Ellis details the rise and fall of the Tren de Aragua gang, which originated in Venezuelan prisons and spread across the Americas. A recent drone strike suggests potential cooperation between the U.S. and the Venezuelan regime to normalize the mining sector. Meanwhile, Brazil's Lula da Silva faces increasing regional isolation. 7Bukele's Security Transformation of El Salvador. Guest: Professor Evan Ellis. Professor Evan Ellis describes how President Nayib Bukele has dramatically improved security in El Salvador by imprisoning over 90,000 suspected gang members. This "Singapore-like" approach has revitalized commerce and public administration despite concerns over democratic erosion. The capital, San Salvador, now features new construction and increased safety. 8Ralph Waldo Emerson and the Roots of Transcendentalism. Guest: Bruce Nichols. Bruce Nichols discusses Ralph Waldo Emerson's return to Concord, Massachusetts, where he transitioned from a Unitarian minister to a public intellectual. Emerson became a "loadstone" for radicals like Henry David Thoreau, who initially improved his family's pencil business before focusing on nature and philosophy. Emerson's dissent sparked a broader intellectual movement. 9Amos Bronson Alcott and the Transcendentalist Identity. Guest: Bruce Nichols. Bruce Nichols introduces Amos Bronson Alcott, a self-educated thinker who revolutionized education through conversational, Socratic methods. Though his schools often failed financially, Alcott was supported by Emerson and became a key figure in the Transcendentalist movement. Transcendentalism emphasized finding higher spiritual truths or the "oversoul" within the universe. 10Nathaniel Hawthorne and the Literary Circle of Concord. Guest: Bruce Nichols. Bruce Nichols explores Nathaniel Hawthorne's move to Concord and his complex relationship with Transcendentalists like Emerson. Unlike the optimistic Emerson, Hawthorne's fiction focused on human tragedy and the presence of evil. He struggled financially, often competing with popular "scribbling women" for book sales while publishing short stories to make ends meet. 11The Extraordinary Life and Tragic Death of Margaret Fuller. Guest: Bruce Nichols. Bruce Nichols chronicles the life of Margaret Fuller, a pioneering feminist and journalist who served as the first female war correspondent. Fuller's intellectual prowess "wowed" Emerson, though her life ended tragically in a shipwreck off Fire Island. Some scholars believe Hawthorne modeled his character Hester Prynne after her. 12Japan's Energy Crisis and Economic Resilience. Guest: Lance Gatling. Lance Gatling discusses how the Strait of Hormuz crisis has driven Japanese crude oil import prices to record highs. To maintain stability, the government has tapped strategic reserves and subsidized fuel prices while increasing imports from the U.S. Despite the weak yen, Japanese exporters are booming, and the stock market has reached all-time highs. 13Japan's Future in Energy and Artificial Intelligence. Guest: Lance Gatling. Japan is working toward a goal of 40–50% renewable energy and 20% nuclear power by the mid-2030s. Lance Gatling notes that Japan remains a critical link in the semiconductor chain essential for the global AI boom. While circumspect about AI's authority, Japanese companies dominate the hardware manufacturing processes necessary for semiconductor production. 14The Moral Foundations of the American Revolution. Guest: David C. Rose. David C. Rose explains that the American Revolution was driven by men who considered themselves "independents" rather than rebels. Drawing on Adam Smith's Theory of Moral Sentiments, he argues that humans crave approval and follow cultural norms. Over time, these norms shifted toward "moral don'ts" or guardrails, fostering a freethinking mindset. 15Guardrails and the Psychology of Independence. Guest: David C. Rose. David Rose argues that the Revolution occurred because the British King violated the "guardrails" of his own power, losing the respect of his subjects. While tax issues were prominent in Boston, a more generalized feeling of disenfranchisement fueled the movement. The Founders ultimately chose independence when the reciprocity of decency and legitimacy failed. 16

Jonathon Gaare (Fire Island Lighthouse Preservation Society) Jonathon Gaare, executive director of the Fire Island Lighthouse Preservation Society in New York, last joined us in December 2024. In this episode, Jonathon updates us on preservation projects at the lighthouse, the exciting events lined up for Fire Island Light Station’s 200th anniversary this year, and some exciting historical finds. The current lighthouse at Fire Island, built in 1858, is a 168-foot brick tower. Visitors get to climb the tower for an amazing view, and there’s a museum in the keeper’s house. Another big draw is the separate building that was constructed to exhibit the lighthouse’s old first-order Fresnel lens. The Fire Island Lighthouse Preservation Society was formed in 1982 to preserve the site. An evening tower tour at Fire Island (Fire Island Lighthouse Preservation Society)

Rex Heuermann pleaded guilty to seven murders in Suffolk County Court. Then he admitted to an eighth — Karen Vergata — one he was never formally charged with. The confession was part of the plea deal: admit to killing Karen, and he won't be separately prosecuted for it. She gets a confessed killer but no indictment, no trial, no verdict with her name attached.The final episode of “The Seven.” Karen was 34, from Hell's Kitchen, a mother whose sons were removed by child welfare and adopted before she died. She called her father on Valentine's Day 1996 from custody. It was his birthday. She sounded troubled. According to the DA, Heuermann strangled and dismembered her in April of that year. Weeks later, two brothers searching for driftwood on Fire Island found her legs in a garbage bag on the beach.For 27 years, she was Jane Doe Number Seven. Genetic genealogy identified her in 2022. Her father Dominic was told — then died two months later at 87. He'd spent decades searching, hiring investigators, and being turned away by the NYPD when he tried to file a missing persons report. His court petition to have Karen declared dead concluded with a single line: “Her absence cannot be satisfactorily explained.”It can now. Heuermann explained it himself — standing in a courtroom, answering yes. Karen's life, the discovery, the identification, and the legal weight of an uncharged confession — all covered here.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

He pleaded guilty to seven. Then he admitted to an eighth he was never charged with. Karen Vergata — 34, mother of two, living in Hell's Kitchen, working as an escort, struggling with addiction. Her family last heard from her on Valentine's Day 1996. According to the DA, Heuermann strangled and dismembered her in April of that year — the same month he married his second wife. Her legs were found on Fire Island weeks later. Her skull was found near Gilgo Beach in 2011. She was Jane Doe Number Seven for 27 years.The final episode of “The Seven.” Karen's case fills the gap between Sandra Costilla in 1993 and Valerie Mack in 2000 — confirming Heuermann was active in the mid-1990s. It also adds a new dump site to the map: Fire Island, expanding the geography beyond Manorville, Ocean Parkway, and Southampton.Her father Dominic spent decades searching. Hired a PI. Was turned away when he tried to file a missing persons report. Petitioned courts to have Karen declared dead. He was told in October 2022 that his daughter had been identified — and died two months later at 87. Her sons, adopted in 1992, found out their biological mother was a serial killer's victim from a press conference nobody warned them about.Karen's confession came not from an indictment but from a plea deal — spoken without emotion by a man whose own attorney described his decision as a “sense of relief.” Her life, the evidence, and what it means to be the eighth name in a seven-count indictment — all covered here.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Rex Heuermann married Asa Ellerup in April 1996. According to the Suffolk County DA, he also strangled and dismembered Karen Vergata that same month. He admitted to it in open court during his guilty plea — an eighth killing he was never formally charged with. The confession was part of the deal: admit to Karen's murder, never face prosecution for it. Seven indictments. One admission. Eight women dead.The final episode of “The Seven.” Karen Vergata was 34, living in Hell's Kitchen, working as an escort, battling addiction. Her sons had been taken by child welfare services four years earlier. She called her father on Valentine's Day 1996 — his birthday — from behind bars. That was the last time anyone in her family heard from her. Weeks after the alleged killing, her legs were found in a garbage bag on Fire Island by two brothers searching for driftwood. She became Fire Island Jane Doe. Her skull was found near Gilgo Beach in 2011. She was Jane Doe Number Seven until genetic genealogy identified her in 2022.Her father Dominic searched for decades. Hired a PI. Was turned away by the NYPD when he tried to report her missing. Filed to have her declared dead. Was told in October 2022 that his daughter had been identified. Died two months later at 87. Never saw accountability.Karen's case fills the gap between Sandra Costilla (1993) and Valerie Mack (2000), and adds Fire Island as a new dump site — expanding the geography of Heuermann's admitted crimes beyond Manorville, Ocean Parkway, and Southampton. As part of the plea, Heuermann agreed to cooperate with the FBI's Behavioral Analysis Unit. His attorney said the plea brought his client a “sense of relief.” Karen's full story, the evidence trail, and what it means to be the uncharged name in an eight-victim confession — all covered here.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Rex Heuermann's guilty plea in Suffolk County Court carries legal implications that extend well beyond sentencing. The 62-year-old architect pleaded guilty to seven counts of murder and admitted to intentionally causing the death of Karen Vergata — an eighth victim he was never formally charged with killing. The plea agreement, accepted by Judge Timothy Mazzei, includes a waiver of Heuermann's right to appeal, a provision barring further prosecution related to the eight named victims, and a requirement that he cooperate with the FBI's Behavioral Analysis Unit.The procedural context matters. In September 2025, Judge Mazzei ruled whole genome sequencing evidence admissible — a significant evidentiary milestone that connected Heuermann to the killings through DNA technology his defense had argued was not yet scientifically accepted. The judge also denied the defense motion to sever the seven charges into separate trials. With both rulings in place and trial scheduled for September 2026, the defense had no remaining legal basis to contest the prosecution's core evidence.The inclusion of Karen Vergata in the plea raises distinct legal questions. Vergata, who disappeared from Manhattan in 1996 and whose remains were recovered from Fire Island and near Gilgo Beach years apart, emerged as a subject during a proffer session — a confidential evidentiary meeting between the defendant and prosecutors. Heuermann raised her name, and that disclosure initiated plea discussions according to the DA. By folding her admission into the plea, Heuermann avoided a separate prosecution while simultaneously gaining protection from future charges related to her death.The cooperation provision requires Heuermann to participate in interviews with the FBI's Behavioral Analysis Unit. The DA has characterized this as an academic exercise designed to advance behavioral understanding of serial offenders. Legal analysts have noted that the provision reportedly lacks enforceable penalties for noncompliance. Sentencing is scheduled for June, where Heuermann faces multiple life sentences without parole.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

The guilty plea Rex Heuermann entered in Suffolk County Court did not come from a sudden crisis of conscience. It came from a legal defense that had exhausted every option and a defendant who chose to negotiate the terms of his surrender rather than sit through a trial he could not win. The mechanics of this deal — and what they reveal about Heuermann's calculus — deserve close examination.In September 2025, Judge Timothy Mazzei issued two rulings that effectively ended any viable defense strategy. First, he allowed whole genome sequencing evidence — a cutting-edge DNA technology that the defense argued had not been widely accepted by the scientific community. Second, he denied the motion to separate the seven murder charges into individual trials, meaning Heuermann would face a single jury hearing all seven cases together. Trial was scheduled for September 2026. The defense had nothing left.What happened next is where the case takes a turn. During a proffer session — a confidential meeting where a defendant provides information prosecutors agree not to use against him — Heuermann brought up Karen Vergata. She was a mother of two from Manhattan who disappeared in 1996. Her remains were found in pieces across Fire Island and near Gilgo Beach years apart. Heuermann was never charged with her murder. But he raised her name in that room, and that conversation opened the door to plea negotiations.The deal is structured to Heuermann's advantage in ways that matter. He pleaded guilty to seven murder counts and admitted to intentionally causing Vergata's death — no separate charge, no separate prosecution. He waived his right to appeal. The plea bars further prosecution on any of the eight named victims. And his required cooperation with the FBI's Behavioral Analysis Unit reportedly carries no enforcement mechanism. The DA's office is reviewing hundreds of cold cases across Suffolk County. Heuermann's attorney says the number stays at eight. The investigation continues.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

If you came here for peace and quiet, you are aggressively lost. This daily comedy show kicks off with the most controversial debate of 2025: nuts in banana bread. That's right. We're solving the real problems. Surprise walnuts? Absolutely not. Chocolate chips? Proceed with caution. We break down the emotional trauma of biting into something you didn't consent to (looking at you, sneaky bakery walnuts).From there, we spiral — as any respectable daily comedy show would — into International Dog Biscuit Appreciation Day, Curling Is Cool Day, and the logistics of putting together a Rizz Show curling squad. Are we athletes? No. Will we talk trash like Olympians? Absolutely. There's also a strong push for broom ball, roof ball, and whatever other sport allows us to compete without full cardio commitment.Then things get… spicy.In Sex Time Fun Facts, we dive into a Reddit dilemma that has the room divided: A former nanny (now married) once had a “hilarious” kiss-turned-hookup with the kid she used to babysit… years later… as adults… and now she's invited to his wedding. Does she tell her husband? Is it lying by omission? Is it none of his business? The crew debates loyalty, timing, and whether “it would be hilarious if we kissed” is the boldest pickup line of all time.Meanwhile, Rafe prepares to sail toward what may or may not be “Cartel City,” Riz gets birthday love from the curling association, and we celebrate the retirement of Mr. Clean — a true bald icon stepping away after 68 years of spotless service. Fire Island retirement rumors? You decide.There's lawn rage over fiber optic crews tearing up yards, actual fistfights between contractors (blue collar conflict resolution at its finest), and a passionate breakdown of the HBO show Neighbors, where apparently no one is redeemable and everyone needs therapy.It's chaos. It's sarcasm. It's suburban panic mixed with banana bread betrayal. It's your favorite daily comedy show doing what we do best — arguing about nonsense and somehow making it your problem.Follow The Rizzuto Show → https://linktr.ee/rizzshow for more from your favorite daily comedy show.Connect with The Rizzuto Show Comedy Podcast online → https://1057thepoint.com/RizzShow.Hear The Rizz Show daily on the radio at 105.7 The Point | Hubbard Radio in St. Louis, MO.LADOT's ‘don't poop on buses' campaign takes bizarre twistBonnie Blue I'm Pregnant After Banging 400 Guys!!!'Just crazy': Foristell neighbors 'disappointed' by contractor brawl caught on videoMr. Clean 'retiring' after 68 years on the job.

Nothing says suburban bliss like little neon flags sprouting up across your lawn like a government-sponsored Easter egg hunt. In today's comedy podcast, Rizz spirals (respectfully) over fiber optic lines being marked directly through his beloved Japanese maple, and we ask the real question: do you get a discount if they destroy your yard… or just emotional damage?Things escalate when we break down the now-viral fistfight between fiber optic contractors in Forestell. That's right — two grown men, in high-vis vests, settling a “you're lazy” dispute with haymakers in the middle of a neighborhood already dealing with torn-up lawns and brown faucet water. Is it professional? No. Is it peak blue-collar conflict resolution? Absolutely. And yes, we debate whether they grabbed beers together after.From there, we pivot (hard) into Mr. Clean announcing his retirement after 68 spotless years. Is he headed to Boca? Fire Island? Is this just a marketing stunt? We investigate like the responsible adults we are.Then it's HBO's “Neighbors” — the show that makes you question humanity and your HOA. We break down the most unhinged characters, including doomsday preppers, beach tyrants, cat hoarders, and a man who casually threatens murder before inviting people to a barbecue. It's everything you love about suburban drama without actually having to move.In Crap on Celebrities, we unpack the wild moment at the BAFTAs involving Tourette's, Michael B. Jordan, and a headline nobody saw coming. We also talk Wiz Khalifa's birthday “tradition,” Snooki's health update, and why Leonardo DiCaprio is slowly morphing into Jack Nicholson in real time.It's lawn drama. It's celebrity chaos. It's suburban anxiety with microphones. This daily comedy show continues to prove that no topic is too small — especially if it involves Kentucky bluegrass and potential property destruction.If you love a loud, unfiltered, slightly unhinged comedy podcast that covers weird news, celebrity fails, neighborhood wars, and the kind of conversations that should probably stay off HOA Facebook pages… welcome home.This comedy podcast proudly serves St. Louis and beyond with daily humor, pop culture commentary, and the occasional emotional breakdown over landscaping.Follow The Rizzuto Show → https://linktr.ee/rizzshow for more from your favorite daily comedy show.Connect with The Rizzuto Show Comedy Podcast online → https://1057thepoint.com/RizzShowHear 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.
