    This week, in New Britain, Connecticut, what starts out as a missing woman, who police assmue was killed by her dirtbag boyfriend, turns into a massive investigation, that has nothing to do with that boyfriend. They uncover seven bodies, and they are linked to a man, who lives in his van, which he calls "the murder mobile". He eventually tells all his sick secrets, incling how he planted "seeds" in his "murder garden"!!   Along the way, we find out that when crime is up, just rename a street "Little Poland", that if you don't want to be considered a serial killer, you probably shouldn't give yourself a killer's nickname, and that no matter how many times you say you don't like murder, if you kill 7 people, you like murder!!   New episodes, every Wednesday & Friday nights!!   Donate at patreon.com/crimeinsports or at paypal.com and use our email: crimeinsports@gmail.com Go to shutupandgivememurder.com for all things Small Town Murder, Crime In Sports & Your Stupid Opinions!   Follow us on... instagram.com/smalltownmurder facebook.com/smalltownpod   Also, check out James & Jimmie's other shows, Crime In Sports & Your Stupid Opinions on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you listen to podcasts!!

    We hope all our Creeps and Peeper are also unsettled by our tales this week. Dan starts off in  North Carolina with a story about a man who tried to transform into an actual demon. And some think he was, in a way, successful. Then, his second tale is the story of some of the residents of a housing development outside of Houston, built on a forgotten cemetery, who claim that the spirits of those whose remains were disrespected were both awakened and angered by the destruction of their final resting place. Lynze has three stories today! Her first also takes us to Texas where a strange situation occurs with a neighbor. Then, a woman traveling alone has the creepiest taxi ride to her hotel. Lastly, a young boy runs into the former owner of his Grandmother's home. Scared To Death Merch: Exciting new merch is up in the store!

    Cuomo Goes Third-Party! Democratic Power Vacuums and Death of the Monoculture (with Emily Jashinsky)

    Andrew Cuomo is still trying to matter.That's the clearest takeaway from his latest appearance — a campaign reboot so empty and unconvincing it bordered on parody. After blowing a 60-point lead in the Democratic primary for New York City mayor to Zohran Mamdani, Cuomo continues to operate as if he didn't just have — and squander — his best shot. It wasn't a close race. It wasn't an upset. It was a humiliation, and it made Mamdani a star. Cuomo didn't just lose; he handed the spotlight to the person who beat him.What's most baffling is Cuomo's unwillingness to run as anything other than himself. His latest ad is a watered-down version of Mamdani's campaign. Mamdani talked to people across the city about affordability — and even if his ideas were divisive, they were ideas. Cuomo's pitch? Affordability. No vision. No contrast. Just a stale echo of a message he neither originated nor sharpened. If Cuomo wanted to offer something Mamdani couldn't, he had options. He could've leaned into public safety, into the fear felt by many New Yorkers. He could've campaigned from a synagogue, framed himself as the candidate who would safeguard Jewish communities, and tied Mamdani to the left wing of the party in a way that forced a choice. Instead, we got nothing.Politics Politics Politics is a reader-supported publication. To receive new posts and support my work, consider becoming a free or paid subscriber.There's no attack line, no clear point of differentiation. Cuomo could've said: this is de Blasio 2.0. He could've framed Mamdani as a performance artist backed by a failed administration. He didn't. Instead, he gave voters a lifeless, mimicry-driven campaign with no policy edge. And that brings us to what he is actually running on: his name. For a sliver of voters — the “Cuomosexuals” who liked Mario, liked Andrew, maybe even liked Chris — that might be enough. But for everyone else, Cuomo looks like a man clinging to a legacy that no longer serves him.This also highlights why “Stop ‘X' Candidate” movements almost never work. Ego ruins coordination. Eric Adams isn't dropping out — he's the sitting mayor. Cuomo still acts like running is beneath him. Curtis Sliwa isn't a serious enough contender to pull votes in a general election. And despite the specter of Mamdani's ideology frightening national Democrats, no consensus candidate has emerged. If there were a moderate Republican hedge fund type — pro-choice, socially liberal — that person could shake things up. But they don't exist here. Not this cycle.Ultimately, national Republicans are thrilled. They see Mamdani as a gift. Mike Johnson and Donald Trump will seize on his victory to cast New York as the face of socialism in America — a symbol of excess, decline, and failed progressivism. It's a setup for the midterms. They're ready to prey on any misstep, real or imagined. And unless something changes fast, the ‘Stop Zohran' movement isn't materializing. Not because it couldn't — but because no one in the race knows how to make it happen. Cuomo had his chance.

    54: The Many Lives of Muriel Spark

    It's been said that Muriel Spark's career was not so much a life as a plot, and she did indeed repeatedly reinvent herself, closing one chapter of her life and opening another, regardless of how many friends and business associates she abandoned along the way. This month the Slightly Foxed team were joined by Muriel Spark's biographer Martin Stannard, and Spark enthusiast Emily Rhodes of Emily's Walking Book Club, to discuss the work of this highly original and somewhat forgotten writer and learn how Muriel first invited Martin to write her biography and then did her best to prevent it seeing the light of day. Born in 1918, Muriel grew up in a working class family in Edinburgh – the setting for her most famous novel The Prime of Miss Jean Brodie, which was based on a charismatic teacher at her own school. At the age of 19 she closed that chapter of her life by marrying an older maths teacher, Sydney Oswald Spark, known (appropriately) thereafter as SOS, and going with him to Southern Rhodesia (now Zimbabwe) where their son Robin was born. Unfortunately it soon became obvious that Sydney had severe psychiatric problems and in 1943 Muriel left husband and son and returned to London where she began her career as a novelist. Several times shortlisted for the Booker Prize, and much admired by Evelyn Waugh and Graham Greene, Muriel produced 22 novels, most of them drawing on events in her own life. Everyone at the Slightly Foxed table had their favourites, including The Girls of Slender Means, A Far Cry from Kensington, Loitering with Intent, and Memento Mori, a clear eyed and also very funny look at old age. Everyone agreed on the brilliance of her writing with its dark humour, preoccupation with the supernatural and with the presence of evil in unlikely places. Her life was equally fascinating, moving from poverty to great wealth and success, and from the shabbier parts of London to intellectual life in New York centred on The New Yorker magazine, to which she became a contributor. In 1954 she was received into the Roman Catholic church and for some time she lived in Rome, relishing the glitter of Italian high society, finally settling in Tuscany with her friend Penelope Jardine, where she died in 2005. Summer reading recommendations included Caledonian Road by Andrew O'Hagan, Death at the Sign of the Rook by Kate Atkinson, Homework by Geoff Dyer and Of Thorn and Briar by Paul Lamb. Martin also praised Electric Spark, the new – and very different – biography of Muriel Spark by Frances Wilson. For episode show notes, please see the Slightly Foxed website.

    In this powerful segment, Tara and Lee break down the historic collapse of first-time homeownership under the Biden administration. With staggering data—like the average age of a homebuyer soaring to 56 and first-time buyers plummeting to a record low 24%—they expose how skyrocketing prices and 7% interest rates have turned the American Dream into an impossible fantasy for most. The conversation compares today's housing market to Europe's stagnant real estate, where multi-generational ownership and unaffordable costs are the norm. They argue that reckless money printing, runaway inflation, and partisan policies at the Federal Reserve are driving a crisis that is crippling young families, delaying marriage and children, and fueling desperation. Even families earning over $200,000 are living paycheck to paycheck as basic homeownership slips further out of reach. Tara warns that unless these destructive policies are reversed, an entire generation will be permanently locked out of the housing market.

    Questions continue to swirl around Jeffrey Epstein's death in federal custody, years after it was officially ruled a suicide. The conditions surrounding his death were so compromised—broken cameras, falsified logbooks, missing cellmate, and sleeping guards—that many find it hard to accept the official story at face value. The OIG report sharply criticized the Bureau of Prisons for a cascade of systemic failures that made Epstein's death not just possible but almost predictable. It painted a picture of negligence so extreme that it defies belief, and only deepened public suspicion. In a facility designed to house high-risk inmates under strict supervision, Epstein managed to die in the one moment when every safeguard mysteriously failed at once. That coincidence remains too perfect for comfort.Complicating matters further is the DOJ memo released years later that confidently declared the case closed—stating there was no evidence of foul play, no “client list,” and no outstanding leads. But that memo glossed over many of the issues raised in the OIG report, failing to explain how such a high-profile inmate could be left so vulnerable, and offering no reconciliation between the security failures and the final conclusions. It gave the appearance of a government eager to move on rather than get answers. The disconnect between the two reports leaves a credibility gap, with the public forced to choose between bureaucratic closure and lingering, unanswered questions. For many, the Epstein case didn't end with his death—it was buried with it.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Inside the Jeffrey Epstein death report and the TEN troubling questions the DOJ refuses to explain | Daily Mail Online

    BLACK Goo, Cubes & Mail (7/14/25)

    The Secret Teachings

    Play Episode Listen Later Jul 15, 2025 120:01


    The discovery of “black goo” on a boat in Ohio has created a lot of speculation, especially after it was studied by the University of Minnesota Duluth and found to have “20 DNA sequences... including one that was completely novel.” Black Goo has been seen in countless movies, tv shows, music videos, and even commercials. At its core, the black represents void and abyss, the goo being nothing but an amorphous substance or blank canvas on which to paint anything. On a more literal level, this goo is real, be it faulty asphalt or raw sewage. In the case of what was found in Ohio, it is something very genetically mysterious.  From the X Files and Prometheus the substance is an alien virus or mutagenic pathogen. In District 9 it is a biological agent. In Venom it is a symbiot. In Star Trek it is a conscious of malevolence. In Lucy the substance is a drug that eventually allows for evolution of the chapter into a super-advanced intelligence transcending space and time as a black goo computer - when IBM unveiled their quantum computer it appeared as black goo in a clear black box. A few days previous there were two reports about a creature existing between life and death, and small xenobots operating in human cells after the body has died. The strange creature was called “Sukunaarchaeum mirabile,” a name coming from Japanese mythology: Sukuna & Bikona.  Sukuna translates as “lesser name” or “small" Bikona translates as “divine” or “renown.” The name represses the deity Sukunabikona's diminutive stature and humble or lesser status. It is often depicted as a small figure riding in a tiny boat or working alongside the more prominent deity Ōkuninushi. Boats are vessels of guidance across rivers like Nile or Styx, and they also bring civilizers like Oannes, Osiris, and Quetzalcoatl. A Japanese movie called The Boy and the Heron is the recent release from Studio Ghibili, featuring a heron that acts like Charon on the river Styx. The boat in Ohio that passed black goo was also called the Blue Heron. This black substance can also be found in Princess Mononoke, Howl's Moving Castle, and Spirit Away. The Japanese connection is made strange when learning that scientists from that country were working on the hybrid creature in the X Files episode Nisei, which also means second generate, relating it to the Sukuna and that which generates secondarily. In other words, Sukunabikona and Nisei are the Japanese version of homunculus, or little diminutive human which in biology acts as a symbol of sperm in the microcosm. In the macrocosm it is the comet. It must not be coincidence that since 2017 we have seen three interstellar objects pass  through our solar system: Oumuamua, Borisov and Atlas in July 2025. The latter two were comets, made distinct by their tail, essentially making them sperm - “panspermia” means the chaotic distortion of life from the sperm comet to the egg planet. The black substance has also been part of the Covid narrative, due to something called black fungus that people have coughed up. It is therefore strange to find black substances in Moderna vaccines that were pulled from the market in several prefectures in Japan. We just learned this month that AG Pam Bondi just stopped an investigation into Pfizer, a company she was once legal counsel for. This comes after her dropping the Epstein client list, part of a large intelligence gathering operation and blackmail ring largely run by the MOSSAD of Israel. Things get even strange when considering that Epstein was working on a human engineering project with scientists and genetic researchers. It must not be a coincidence that the Trump administration on day one initiated the next stage of the Stargate project, pertaining to universal cancer shots or that RFK Jr. at the HHS authorized universal and flu vaccine development. The top four leaders at Pfizer and Moderna are 75% Jewish with ties to Israel, just as the Stargate Project is 50% the same. And to top it all off, on July 4, the President existed a black cube with his wife wearing a white dress and a black strap, both of which appear to represent the Tefillin worn by Jews, the very group RFK Jr. says are the least effected by Covid. That cube also appeared to display what looks like the entity in Mission Impossible, i.e., a truth eating digital parasite.   *The is the FREE archive, which includes advertisements.

    #181: Death doesn't have to be a cold, clinical experience tucked away in hospital corners. Yet the word "hospice" still strikes fear in the hearts of so many, often because we fundamentally misunderstand what hospice truly offers.In this profound conversation with Karissa, a veteran hospice nurse with eight years of experience across four different states, we peel back the layers of misconception surrounding end-of-life care. "If death is inevitable, it matters where and when and how," she explains, challenging our cultural tendency to avoid these conversations until it's often too late.What exactly happens when hospice steps in? Far from being just for the imminently dying, hospice provides comprehensive support for both patients and families, sometimes for years rather than days. Karissa walks us through the full spectrum of resources available – from 24/7 nursing support and equipment to spiritual care and family counseling – all covered 100% by Medicare and Medicaid. We explore the telltale signs that it might be time to consider hospice for conditions like CHF, COPD, Alzheimer's, and cancer, and why waiting too long often leads to preventable suffering.Perhaps most beautifully, Karissa describes her role as "midwifery for the dying," drawing a powerful parallel between how we usher life into this world and how we can compassionately guide it out. Whether you're a healthcare provider hesitant to broach this topic with patients, a family member wondering if it's time to consider additional support, or simply someone wanting to understand this inevitable part of the human experience, this episode offers practical wisdom, honest insights, and unexpected moments of lightness in what's typically considered a heavy subject. Listen, share, and join the conversation about making the end of life as meaningful and comfortable as possible.You can now send us a text to ask a question or review the show.

Together, they unpack the concept of “Death by Distraction”—how our dependence on screens, overstimulation, social media, hustle culture, and avoidance behaviors are not only numbing us but quietly stealing our joy and dismantling our families, physical and mental health, spiritual connection, and connections to one another.   Jake shares both clinical insights and practical tools for interrupting the dopamine loops, rewiring your life with intention, and simplifying your environment for healing and joy. Jamie gets vulnerable about her own struggles, and together, they explore what it really takes to step off the conveyor belt and start living. Expect raw call outs, practical ideas, and a push for radical change - starting with bold, countercultural choices.   This episode invites you to slow down and start leading your life and family with presence and purpose.   You're not powerless. Start small. Go countercultural. It only seems hard until you do it. It only seems weird until everyone else starts doing it, too.     Topics Covered: Screen addiction, social media, dopamine dysregulation Time as our most valuable and fleeting asset Trauma as a root cause The link between distraction and self-medication Parenting and restoring the family unit Men's mental health and community Why family meals, boredom, and silence matter Reclaiming mornings for neuroplasticity and spiritual alignment The invisible cost of overcommitment, youth sports, and the hustle How boundaries, presence, and “no” create better outcomes   Resources Mentioned: Find a PHWC or NTP The Body Keeps the Score, Dr. Bessel van der Kolk Codependent No More.

    After an extended break that left listeners wondering if the podcast had quietly joined the ranks of mysterious disappearances, Josh and Justin are finally back behind the mics. Josh is convinced the show's over, Justin's over it, and maybe the world is too—but Justin disagrees. Vehemently. In this episode, the guys open up about the reasons behind the hiatus, what's been going on off-air, and whether the Terribly Vexed Podcast has a future (spoiler: it does, probably).Meanwhile, the conversation quickly veers off the rails in classic Terribly Vexed fashion. The Epstein case resurfaces, Trump's legal drama gets unpacked, and the boys take a hard look at weather modification in Texas—because, honestly, it's starting to feel like someone's got a remote control for the sky. There's talk of government deception, the suspicious “suicide” of Danny Casolaro, and why no one seemed remotely bothered when an insurance CEO was mysteriously killed. Add in a sharp *Fletch* reference from Josh (that Justin, naturally, nails), and it's clear these two haven't lost their rhythm.It's a slightly more grounded return, full of late-night energy, half-joking paranoia, and those moments of “wait, are we the only ones paying attention to this?” If this episode proves anything, it's that the podcast isn't dead—it just went underground for a bit.LINKS:The 14th AmendmentOperation Wetback WIKIProblem, Reaction, SolutionCNN: Mexicans Protest Americans Moving Into Their NeighborhoodsPalantir TechnologiesJulius and Ethel RosenbergEpstein House DestroyedThe Israeli "Art Student" MysteryInslawDevelopment Of PROMISThe Octopus: Secret Government and the Death of Danny CasolaroUnsolved Mysteries - Danny CasolaroThe Life and Death of Robert MaxwellSamuel Pisar

    Redemption E6 — In the book of Psalms, the Hebrew words for “redemption” are often used to simply mean save, rescue, or release. This is especially true in the psalms of King David, who was never a slave but regularly used redemption language to speak of trials with his enemies. As the collection of psalms grew and shifted over many centuries, David's personal longings for redemption came to represent something much bigger. In this episode, Jon and Tim explore the themes of personal, communal, and cosmic redemption in Psalms.CHAPTERSRecap and Intro to Redemption in the Psalms (0:00-12:54)David's Use of “Redeem” (12:54-34:28)Redemption From the Grave (34:28-48:30)REFERENCED RESOURCESYou can view annotations for this episode—plus our entire library of videos, podcasts, articles, and classes—in the BibleProject app, available for Android and iOS.Check out Tim's extensive collection of recommended books here.SHOW MUSIC“Just Truth” by Lofi Sunday, Yoni Charis “The Kingdom” by Lofi Sunday, Marc VanparlaBibleProject theme song by TENTSSHOW CREDITSProduction of today's episode is by Lindsey Ponder, producer, and Cooper Peltz, managing producer.
