With Geno Smith back with the Jets, he's already finding himself involved with police again following a domestic violence call and getting pulled over twice. Next, Aaron Glenn is taking over defensive play-calling, meaning they better rank in the top 10 or Glenn won't be around long. C-Lo then returns for an update, starting with sounds from yesterday's postgame podcast where Al asked Rami about the difficulties of working with each member of the show, followed by Joe Benigno commenting on the music coming out of break. Finally, the hour wraps up with Gio sitting in on bass for a few songs at the Sandbar on Fire Island.

With Boomer out, Gio, Jerry, and C-Lo break down the HR derby, Will Ferrell, and an e-bike PSA that leads straight into Pee-Wee Herman. Next, they recap their own third-place golf finish, look at more derby reactions, and hear from a caller who doesn't have a prostate. The focus then turns to Geno Smith's recent police encounters, Aaron Glenn's defensive pressure, and Gio playing bass on Fire Island. Finally, after reflecting on the rapid passage of time and empty nesting, the guys wrap up with Mike Francesa's Jets skepticism, an angry Steve Somers punching a screen, and a Norwegian soccer team spending $10K on cowboy gear and a taxidermy raccoon.

In 1917, a dead Mark Twain "wrote" a novel through a Ouija board — and the lawsuit that followed forced everyone to ask who really owns a book authored from the afterlife.EPISODE BLOG PAGE (includes sources): https://weirddarkness.com/ghostwritingREAD or DOWNLOAD the full transcript of this episode: https://weirddarkness.tiny.us/366f2snyFEATURED STORIES IN THIS EPISODE: Did Mark Twain write a new novel after he was dead? If so, how? *** Though David Parker Ray's girlfriend Cindy Hendy helped him commit numerous rapes and murders in the 1990s, she was released in 2019 and walks free today. *** Louis Le Prince vanished under mysterious circumstances, but did he willingly decide to hide from the outside world, or was he murdered? *** A man has a dream so disturbing that he's deeply affected by it well after he dreamt it. And the reason it stuck with him could be that it wasn't a dream after all – but a premonition of something horrible to come. *** Shortly after finishing her junior year of high school, Alissa Turner disappeared, never to be seen alive again. Her murder would've gone unsolved if not for the social media platform, TikTok. *** Humans have been fascinated with Mars ever since we learned it was a planet. But why are we so obsessed with it? Is it simply our next step towards deep-space travel, or are we drawn to it for a more basic reason… because our ancestors originated from there? *** There are many UFO sightings on record, but ones that are accompanied by missing time are particularly interesting. Perhaps not least as they might suggest something more akin to alien abduction than just a mere sighting. We'll look at one particular incident that took place in Nebraska in 1966.CHAPTERS & TIME STAMPS (All Times Approximate)…00:00:00.000 = Show Open00:02:26.278 = Do Copyright Laws Apply To Spirit Writing?00:13:54.317 = The Murder Solved Through TikTok ***00:19:27.188 = The Nebraska Time Affair00:35:44.438 = The Strange Dreams of Mr. Moir ***00:40:33.850 = Did Our Ancestors Live On Mars?00:52:06.275 = The Toy Box Killer's Girlfriend ***01:01:04.695 = The Strange Disappearance of Louis Le Prince01:06:58.396 = Show Close*** = Begins immediately after inserted ad breakLISTEN ON PODCAST APPS: Look for this podcast on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, iHeart Radio, Amazon Music, Pandora, TuneIn Radio, and other podcast apps.

Copyright ©2026, Weird Darkness.Originally aired: December, 2022This episode of Weird Darkness moves through posthumous authorship, serial murder, a vanished film pioneer, a TikTok-cracked cold case, alien abduction, Martian origins, and a premonition dug out of the ground.It opens in 1990s New Mexico, where Cindy Hendy helped David Parker Ray abduct, rape, and torture as many as sixty women inside the trailer he called his "Toy Box," a space fitted with ceiling mirrors that forced victims to watch their own suffering. Hendy tracked down targets and stood by while Ray tormented them with electric shocks and medical instruments, until Cynthia Vigil escaped on March 22, 1999, running naked into traffic in Elephant Butte with a dog collar around her neck after stabbing Hendy in the neck with an icepick. Sentenced in 2000 to thirty-six years, Hendy was released on July 15, 2019, because her plea deal predated a law requiring violent offenders to serve eighty-five percent of their terms, and she walks free today.From there the episode crosses to France and the case of Louis Le Prince, born in Metz in 1841 and credited as the forgotten father of motion pictures for building a sixteen-lens camera in 1888. He boarded a train from Dijon to Paris on September 16, 1890, waved off by his brother, and was gone when the train arrived, luggage and all. Thomas Edison spent years asserting sole ownership of cinematography, and Le Prince's son Adolphe, who testified against him, was found shot dead on Fire Island in 1902; a diary entry attributed to Edison and dated September 20, 1890, reportedly records that a man named Eric called from Dijon to say "Prince is no more."Next comes the disappearance of Alissa Turney, a Phoenix teenager last seen on May 17, 2001, after finishing her junior year and arguing with her stepfather, Michael Turney, who claimed she ran away to California. A 2008 search of his home turned up twenty-six homemade explosive devices and a ninety-eight-page manifesto, and he served time on federal bomb charges before his release in 2017. Alissa's younger sister, Sarah Turney, built a TikTok following past one million people around the hashtag campaign for her sister, and in August 2020 Michael Turney was charged with the murder.The episode then turns to a lonely road outside Columbus, Nebraska, on September 5, 1966, where a seventeen-year-old riding his motorcycle to meet his girlfriend's parents saw a completely circular object hovering roughly a hundred feet overhead, ringed with green, red, and yellow lights and emitting a low hum he felt resonate through his body. His engine raged and his wheels spun, but the bike held frozen in place; a five-minute trip took over thirty minutes, and he could never account for the missing time. The same night, radar at Finland Air Force Station in Minnesota tracked an oval craft with the same colored underside, prompting two F-89 jets to scramble from Duluth before it vanished.The Mars segment follows, examining why NASA, SpaceX, and Elon Musk remain fixed on a cold desert planet, and the fringe claim that human life may have originated there billions of years ago before Mars lost its magnetic field and its atmosphere was stripped away by solar wind. The piece leans on the detail that astronauts in space drift toward a 24.9-hour circadian rhythm matching the Martian day, and cites Haim Eshed, former head of Israel's space program, who claimed a secret underground base on Mars where American astronauts and aliens work together, alongside NASA scientist Jim Green's proposal to shield the planet with an artificial magnetic field placed at the Sun-Mars L1 point.Mark Twain surfaces next, seven years after Samuel Clemens died in 1910, when a novel called "The Coming of Jap Herron" appeared in 1917, purportedly dictated by his spirit through a Ouija board to Emily Grant Hutchings and Lola V. Hays. Hutchings, a Hannibal-born writer who had corresponded with Twain in life, had earlier channeled a supposed seventeenth-century spirit named Patience Worth, and psychical researcher James Hyslop tested the Twain claim by asking the ghost to relay the line "Hyslop is a cabbage head," a message that never arrived. Because Harper and Brothers held exclusive rights to Twain's work, his daughter Clara Clemens moved to block publication, and the resulting suit against publisher Mitchell Kennerley ended with every copy pulled from shelves.The episode closes in June 1870 near Boyndie, Scotland, where farm bailiff William Moir dreamed of a bloodied corpse lying on sloping ground near the shore, and weeks later helped carry a drowned asylum inmate over that exact spot, watching blood appear on the dead man's face when the body slipped from its board. The vision returned relentlessly through 1871 until, in January 1872, Moir took a spade to a place called Stakeness and unearthed a human skull and skeleton estimated to be at least fifty years old, in ground where villagers recalled a man named Elder had vanished decades earlier, reportedly murdered in the very room where Moir later slept. The discovery did not free him; he sank into a religious depression and died in October 1873.

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...

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'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?
