What better way to kick off the month of love than with the queen of historical romance, Julia Quinn. The Bridgerton author chats all about how her series became a global phenomenon, the unexpected ways Bridgerton has reshaped the genre, and why historical romance deserves its moment in the spotlight again. And can you believe Julia almost became a doctor instead of a novelist? She’s sharing some behind-the-scenes insights for season 4 of Bridgerton and reminding us why we should still believe in happy endings.

In this episode, I sit down with the founder of Helderburg Defenders to go deep into what truly sets these Defenders apart: uncompromising build quality, craftsmanship, and an almost obsessive attention to detail. We talk about what it takes to elevate a Land Rover Defender beyond restoration and into the realm of a truly bespoke machine—where every component, material choice, and finish is intentional. From chassis and suspension upgrades to interiors that feel more like a tailored suit than a truck, Helderburg Defenders are built to be driven, admired, and endured. This conversation covers: The philosophy behind building Defenders the right way Why quality, durability, and engineering discipline matter more than trends How Helderburg balances authenticity with modern performance and reliability What separates a true high-end Defender build from the rest of the market If you care about craftsmanship, long-term ownership, and vehicles built with integrity rather than shortcuts, this episode is a must-listen.

We've talked about the riders. We've yapped about the manufacturers. And today? Today we get to the real meat and potatoes...the bikes! Never mind that  everybody's still getting ready to start testing in Sepang - we've already got plenty to discuss. We already know a lot about these bikes, so it's time we start looking at the hard questions. Questions like: Are they going to make the racing better? Will they be safer? Are they fun to watch? What's their zodiac? And who might have to get ready for a frosty chat? Just, you know, plenty of questions about the machines that define this sport. Let's get some answers! Want more?

We’re stuck in that awkward stretch between the holidays and Valentine’s Day—and Lou Penrose leans into it. From single women searching for a real gentleman on social media to Lou revisiting his rules for single women, the conversation gets honest and spicy. As birthrates continue to fall, Lou breaks down why even progressives say the left needs real solutions—while the White House rolls out a pro-family agenda and Lou delivers a blunt take: if you want to be married, get married—don’t let divorce laws scare you off. Plus, Under Armour suffers a major data breach. Love, politics, and hard truths—all in one episode. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

What if your next reset wasn't another plan… another strategy… or another thing to fix yourself? What if it was a place where you could finally stop performing and actually do the deep work? In this episode of Boss Bitch Radio, I'm sitting down with Lana and Mark Royce, the husband-and-wife duo behind BlissTopia Retreats in Arizona and this conversation is special. I recently attended their Heal Your Heart retreat, and honestly… it rocked me in the best way! This isn't one of those fluffy retreats where you relax for a weekend and come home unchanged. BlissTopia is intimate, grounded, and designed for real healing - nervous system regulation, breathwork, embodiment, and genuine human connection. Lana brings decades of experience as a psychotherapist, yoga teacher, former doula, and healer trained in hypnotherapy, reiki, meditation, and sound healing.

The Bird and the Sword might be for you if you loved the mysterious eagle rescue in Tamora Pierce's "Wild Magic," but want something more grown up with a witcher-style MMC.

A certain German philosopher once warned that he who stares into  the racing grid long enough must know that the racing grid also stares back.* This week, Peter discovers that we have some very particular fans in high places, and wishes they stayed anonymous. We can't talk crap about you if we know who you are - stop being friendly to us! Rather, we prefer our listeners and us to be like estranged spouses: cold and distant strangers, drawn together by a shared mania. Love you, though, and give our regards to Toprak!So, to stay on theme, let's get to know our anonymous audience on a first name basis by interacting with them through listener questions! We've got time traveling what-if's, fear for Australia and the tricks to a zen-like flow. Also, one of the above examples is the answer to last weeks' cliffhanger. Exciting! So hit play, grab a fresh one and enjoy!*Or something like that; my German is a bit rusty these days.Want more? Visit our website or support us on Patreon.

We do become a member of the Scotchy Bourbon Boys group because that membership right now gets you into a tasting that you will definitely want to be a part of.The bottle may have a famous signature, but the pour still has to earn its keep. We dive into Steph Curry's Gentleman's Cut to see whether this 90-proof Kentucky straight bourbon from Boone County's Game Changer Distillery stands on flavor, not just fame. From the origin story and mash bill (75% corn, 21% rye, 4% malted barley) to the five-to-seven-year age range and premium pricing, we unpack how this release positions itself for celebratory moments—and how it compares to other star-backed spirits.I share the full tasting journey, including why letting the bottle breathe transformed the experience. Expect a rich nose of vanilla and caramel with a soft nuttiness, an easygoing body with a light oily glide, and a long, centered finish with oak and a hint of char that quietly lingers. Using our nose-body-taste-finish framework, we land at 14/18—respectable, recommendable, and more compelling than a quick glance might suggest. We talk honestly about value: $78 to $80 isn't “deal territory,” but it slots beneath today's trophy bottles while aiming for premium occasions.We also broaden the lens on celebrity whiskey. Star power can supercharge awareness, access, and distribution, but longevity requires authenticity, reputable partners, and consistent quality. We highlight Boone County's craft credibility, how storytelling around celebration and friendship can ring true, and where some past celebrity labels have stumbled on youth, hype, or misaligned sourcing. If you're curious whether Gentleman's Cut is more than marketing, you'll get context, tasting notes, and a clear takeaway you can use.If you enjoy candid reviews and smart industry insights, follow along, share the episode with a whiskey friend, and leave a quick rating on Apple or Spotify—what celebrity bottle should we break down next?voice over Whiskey Thief Add for SOFLSupport the showhttps://www.scotchybourbonboys.com The Scotchy bourbon Boys are #3 in Feedspots Top 60 whiskey podcasts in the world https://podcast.feedspot.com/whiskey_podcasts/

 Everybody has questions. Wait, let me rephrase that: everyone of you has questions for us. And you know? We were kind of asking for it – literally, since we asked our sweet Patrons to donate not just their money, but their MotoGP-inquiries as well.And let me tell you, our Patrons can be very generous! So here we are, four pages of questions ranging from the mundane to the bizarre and everything inbetween. Do we have enough time to get through all of them? Not this week, we don't. But trust us when I say we've got some juicy bits here! So maybe you're curious about what parts of a MotoGP-bike will never make it onto the street. Perhaps your wondering how difficult it is to make the jump from Superbike to MotoGP. Or maybe you just want to know what the most debauched thing Mat and Peter ever saw was. In any case, we invite you to crack open your drink of choice and join us for the start of Wet January.Cheers!Want more? Visit our website or support us on Patreon.

Happy new year, everyone! As we recover from the absolute madness of December, a lot of us in the racing world find ourselves with some free time on our hands. No races means less work, right? And that means more time to better yourself. It's the perfect moment for New Year's resolutions, like: "I want to become a better MotoGP-journalist!"I mean, not us, of course. We're bloody perfect. But here at the Oxley Bom Podcast, we sometimes feel like the rest of the world has some catching up to do. So we decided to let some of the secrets out and get down and dirty. Want to know what not to ask at a press conference? How to get actual scoops? Or how to deal with hungover interviews, on the side of the rider/journalist/both? Just press that button, listen to us ramble and we promise that by the end of this, you'll have everything you need to become an actual journalist.* Also included: the secret origin story of Mat and Peter's first meeting.

On Lexington Avenue sits a special food store named Kalustyan's with a second floor stocked with international spices, syrups, and bitters. In 1881, this was the home of Chester A. Arthur, and it was here in the early morning hours of September 20, that he became the 21st President of the United States.He is one of only two men inaugurated as president in New York City -- the other was George Washington. And Arthur was certainly no Washington!Fans of the Netflix series Death By Lightning have already been introduced to Arthur's rugged, street-toughened personality, an efficient operator of Republican politics in a city governed by Democrats and Tammany Hall. He was quite famous, in fact, for converting Tammany men to Republican voters by using similar bare-knuckle tactics.He eventually became the Collector of the Port of New York, one of the most lucrative jobs in American government. And then, through a strange series of events, he was catapulted onto the national ticket for president as the running mate of James Garfield.But nobody really wanted the New Yorker for president, did they?This is a story not only of a man out of his depth, but of the two very different individuals who helped hone his reputation -- the New York power broker Roscoe Conkling, and the Upper East Side recluse Julia Sand, who may have helped guide Arthur through the most challenging moments of his 'accidental' presidency.PLUS: How Madison Square Park has become one of the only true monuments to his legacy.This episode was produced and edited by Kieran Gannon.

THE MORAL BURDEN OF HENRY STIMSON Colleague Evan Thomas. Evan Thomas introduces Henry Stimson, the US Secretary of War, describing him as a 77-year-old "Christian gentleman" and moralist who is simultaneously a realist about the use of power. While Stimson oversaw the devastating firebombing of Tokyo, which killed 100,000 people in a single night, he harbored deep moral qualms about the war's brutality and the atomic bomb, which he viewed as a "Frankenstein monster." The segment also highlights Stimson's failing health and his contrasting relationships with Franklin Roosevelt, a fellow elite, and the newly inaugurated Harry Truman, whom he initially found difficult to engage.

Found my new favorite guy. Caldwell-esque sex discrimination expert Scott Yenor joins me to discuss an absolutely incontrovertible truth: Ruth Bader Ginsburg destroyed Virginia Military Institute in United States v. Virginia (1996). Not only that, the entire pretense of the decision was that allowing women to be admitted wouldn't effect the culture at all. Very similar to Sandra Day O'Connor's famous reasoning that the purpose of making affirmative action constitutional was that it surely wouldn't be needed to rectify racial achievement in 25 years…which similarly turned out to be the opposite of true. Check out Yenor's incredible report on VMI here.And see side-by-side the original “Code of a Gentleman” from VMI, next to the utterly hollowed out, HR-ified, bombed out and depleted “Code of a Cadet” after the institution had been systematically destroyed by RBG-style liberalism. Gentleman's Pledge (1920)Cadet's Pledge (2023) This is a public episode.

Musical Journey Through the Final Week of December: This Week in Music History As the calendar year draws to a close, the week of December 22nd through December 28th stands as a powerful reminder that music history never sleeps—not even during the holidays. In this captivating episode of “This Week in Music History,” hosts Buzz Knight and Harry Jacobs take listeners on an extraordinary journey through decades of musical milestones, tragic losses, and triumphant achievements that have shaped the soundtrack of our lives. The conversation opens with a poignant reflection on the end of another year of exploring music’s rich tapestry. Buzz muses on how, despite covering similar calendar dates year after year, they continue to uncover new stories and perspectives. “When you think about it, you would think, well, if you do it year after year, you’re going to be talking about the same things,” Buzz observes. “And the truth is, we continue to uncover new and different things.” This sentiment perfectly captures the infinite depth of music history and the endless stories waiting to be told. The Clash’s Revolutionary Voice Falls Silent December 22nd marks the anniversary of one of punk rock’s most devastating losses—the death of Joe Strummer in 2002. Born John Meller, the Clash frontman passed away from pneumonia at a time when his influence on music and culture was still reverberating through generations of artists. The Clash represented more than just a band; they were a political and social force that challenged conventions and inspired countless musicians to use their platform for more than entertainment. Strummer’s legacy as a voice for the disenfranchised and his commitment to authentic, passionate rock and roll continues to inspire artists today. A Candle in the Wind That Lost Its Luster The hosts touch on Elton John’s iconic “Candle in the Wind,” originally written about Marilyn Monroe in 1967. While the song initially resonated as a beautiful tribute, its later reworking for Princess Diana’s funeral created what Buzz describes as “overkill.” The constant repetition following Diana’s tragic death in 1997 caused the song to lose some of its original emotional impact for many listeners. This phenomenon speaks to how even the most beautiful pieces of music can become dulled through overexposure, demonstrating the delicate balance between honoring memory and respecting the power of restraint. Cheap Trick’s Complex Family Dynamics A fascinating deep dive into the internal dynamics of Cheap Trick reveals the complicated nature of band relationships and business structures. Rick Nielsen, the legendary guitar player known for his collection of hundreds of guitars—including his famous five-neck Hamer guitar—represents the performative and creative heart of Cheap Trick. The band’s 2016 Rock and Roll Hall of Fame induction marked a peak moment, but beneath the surface lay complex tensions. The departure of bassist Bunny Carlos and the subsequent addition of Rick Nielsen’s son, Dax, initially appeared to follow the pattern of other famous rock family transitions, like Michael Anthony’s replacement by Wolfgang Van Halen in Van Halen. However, the reality proved far more nuanced. Buzz’s research uncovered ongoing strife within the band, though Carlos remains part of the Cheap Trick corporation—a business structure similar to Journey’s arrangement with Steve Perry. This setup ensures that founding members maintain ownership stakes even when they’re no longer actively touring, though it can also create lasting tension and legal complications. The hosts explore the darker side of band politics, touching on stories of sabotage and ego clashes. There are tales of Journey band members allegedly pulling on Steve Perry’s microphone cord during performances to make him trip—petty acts of revenge that reveal the intense pressures and personalities at play in successful rock bands. Yet they also note that time can heal wounds, pointing to Perry and Neal Schon’s apparently warm relationship at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame induction, despite whatever conflicts may have existed in their past. The Therapeutic Approach: A New Model for Band Longevity In a refreshing counterpoint to tales of band dysfunction, Buzz shares insights from his conversation with The Head and the Heart on his “Music Saved Me” podcast. This indie pop alternative band has taken an innovative approach to managing interpersonal relationships: group therapy. Band members openly discuss how they’ve used professional counseling to navigate the challenges of creative collaboration, life on the road, and the inevitable conflicts that arise when passionate artists work together for years. This revelation prompts fascinating speculation about how many legendary bands might have avoided breakups, lawsuits, and lasting bitterness if they’d embraced therapy earlier. The deeply personal nature of musical creation—leaving your heart exposed in every performance, every recording—makes these relationships particularly vulnerable to conflict. As Harry notes, “even if it’s a drummer or a bass player, it’s still your piece of that performance of that song you left your heart out there.” The music exists forever as a testament to that vulnerability, creating permanent emotional stakes that can intensify disagreements and hurt feelings. Joe Cocker: A Voice That Couldn’t Be Contained The passing of Joe Cocker at age 70 in 2014 brings reflection on an artist whose expressive, explosive performances made him unforgettable. While 70 might not seem particularly old from our current vantage point—as Buzz and Harry, approaching 60 and 70 respectively, can attest—Cocker’s hard-living lifestyle took its toll. His performances were legendary, inspiring John Belushi’s spot-on “Saturday Night Live” impersonation that Cocker himself found hilarious. Cocker’s career highlights include his cover of The Beatles’ “With a Little Help from My Friends,” which became the theme for the television series “The Wonder Years,” and “Up Where We Belong,” his duet with Jennifer Warnes from the film “An Officer and a Gentleman.” The latter song became inextricably linked with that powerful film starring Richard Gere and Lou Gossett Jr., whose portrayal of a drill instructor was genuinely frightening and contributed to one of cinema’s most memorable moments—Gere’s character’s desperate declaration: “I got nowhere else to go.” Eddie Vedder: The Humble Superstar December 23rd celebrates the birthday of Eddie Vedder, born in 1964, whose appreciation for musical history and those who came before him sets him apart in an industry often dominated by ego. The hosts draw parallels to Dave Grohl, noting how both artists exhibit genuine humility and respect for their influences. Vedder’s collaborations with Neil Young, particularly their version of “Rockin’ in the Free World,” helped establish his credibility beyond Pearl Jam circles, while his passionate renditions of The Who’s classics—especially “Love, Reign o’er Me”—have become legendary in their own right. Vedder’s versatility shines through in his cover work, from The Waiting by Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers to The English Beat’s “Save It for Later,” featured in the television series “The Bear.” His interpretation of Tom Petty’s “Room at the Top” particularly resonates, described as “so beautiful” in its delicate handling of Petty’s original composition. The discussion of “The Bear” opens a tangent about the show’s exceptional soundtrack curation, featuring all Tom Petty covers including a barn-burning version of “Runnin’ Down the Dream” by Larkin Poe. Despite Pearl Jam’s reputation for deep cuts and extensive catalogs—which might intimidate casual fans—the hosts acknowledge being captivated whenever they hear Vedder sing anything. His voice and interpretive skills transcend the barrier of familiarity, making even unknown material compelling. The Unsung Guitar Legends of Country Music The conversation shifts to Glen Campbell, whose passing on December 24th prompts reflection on his extraordinary but often underappreciated guitar skills. Campbell represents a generation of country musicians whose technical prowess gets overshadowed by genre stereotypes. Like Roy Clark, Campbell could do virtually anything on guitar, yet many people don’t associate country music with virtuoso instrumentalists. Campbell’s session work tells the story of his versatility—he played on albums by The Monkees, The Beach Boys, Frank Sinatra, and soundtracks for Elvis films and Phil Spector productions. This breadth demonstrates how the Nashville studio system produced some of the most skilled musicians in any genre, even if they didn’t always receive recognition outside country music circles. The discussion of Campbell also touches on Brian Wilson’s 1964 breakdown, a tragic moment that had long-lasting consequences for the Beach Boys and Wilson himself. The psychological damage inflicted by Wilson’s abusive father Murry Wilson—compared to Joe Jackson’s treatment of his children—demonstrates how family trauma can derail even the most talented artists. Brian’s struggles with touring and performing were just the beginning of severe mental health challenges that would plague him throughout his career. The Police: Reunion Done Right In 2007, The Police earned recognition as the year’s highest-grossing tour, thirty years after the band’s inception and 24-25 years after their previous collaboration. The reunion tour, which Buzz witnessed in Las Vegas, comprised over 150 shows worldwide and generated nearly $400 million—not a bad payday for a comeback. This success demonstrated the enduring appeal of Sting, Andy Summers, and Stewart Copeland’s unique blend of rock, reggae, and new wave, proving that some artistic chemistry remains potent even after decades apart.Support the show: https://takinawalk.com/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Break 1: Kia Mall of Georgia - Sugar Hill Ice Skating Rink STORY 1: Gwinnett leaders update lawmakers on voting site challenges, public safety efforts Gwinnett County is cutting polling locations—down from 156 to 144—and the reason? Insurance headaches. Churches and private organizations, once reliable voting sites, are pulling out, according to Elections Supervisor Zach Manifold. Manifold shared the news during a meeting with Gwinnett’s state lawmakers, where elections and public safety took center stage. Chairwoman Nicole Love Hendrickson emphasized collaboration: “When local and state leaders work together, we serve our residents better.” On the safety side, Police Chief J.D. McClure highlighted staffing gains and a futuristic twist—drones as “first eyes” on crime scenes. Progress, but challenges remain. STORY 2: Brookwood High selected to participate in the GaDOE Gifted in Action series Brookwood High just got a big nod from the Georgia Department of Education—it’s been featured in the GaDOE Gifted in Action series, a webinar collection for educators working with gifted and talented students. Eric Rovie’s AP Literature and Language classes were in the spotlight, with the GaDOE team recording his students in action. Rovie’s approach? Open discussions, tough questions, and a classroom built on trust. Gifted education isn’t just about acceleration, says Dr. Keena Ryals-Jenkins of GCPS—it’s about sparking curiosity and pushing boundaries. STORY 3: Gwinnett Chamber announces 2025 Business Excellence Award winners The Gwinnett Chamber’s Business Excellence Awards lit up the John Maxwell Leadership Center last week, celebrating the movers, shakers, and innovators shaping Gwinnett’s business scene.

Masino summed it up: “When our businesses thrive, so does our region.” Winners spanned 10 categories, from Spectrum Autism Support Group (Community Contributor) to iS3 Tech Services’ Adam Hammock (Founder Award).

Now, here is Shane Delancey the Director of the Christmas Tradition at the Strand Theatre - Shane Delancey - Break 3: THE STRAND HOLIDAY STORY 6: Mill Creek Grad Holden Cammarata Runs 100-Mile Day for Williams Syndrome Holden Cammarata had a wild dream—run 100 miles in a single day. Not a marathon, not two, but *four*. The 2025 Mill Creek grad and Georgia Tech freshman had always pushed himself, running cross country in high school and now with Georgia Tech’s club team. But this? This was next level. “It’s a big jump,” he admitted. “With my foot surgery coming up, I figured this might be my last shot.” But Holden didn’t just run for himself. He ran for Molly Kate Cloer, the little sister of his high school teammate Tyler, who has Williams Syndrome. Inspired by their family, he turned his grueling goal into a fundraiser, raising over $8,000 for the cause. The run itself? Brutal. By mile 60, his injured foot was screaming. By mile 80, the park closed, forcing him to finish in a church parking lot. Every step hurt. But his parents, old teammates, and even strangers showed up to cheer him on, some running alongside him. After 25 hours, 33 minutes, and 32 seconds, Holden crossed the finish line—exhausted, in pain, but surrounded by love. STORY 7: Northside Hospital Gwinnett named one of nation's best for maternity care Northside Hospital Gwinnett just got some big news—it’s officially one of the best places in the country to have a baby, according to *U.S. News & World Report*. The hospital earned a “High Performing” rating for maternity care, putting it in the top 10% nationwide for uncomplicated pregnancies. Pretty impressive, right? Last year alone, they delivered 4,245 babies. Northside Gwinnett also scored high marks in 15 other areas, from heart surgery to stroke care. When you’re here, you’re family.

If you've checked out last week's episode, you'll know that it was Jeremy Burgess who first described riders as 'flickering lightbulbs'. Why? Because the moment they start to fail, you just replace them with a new one. Cruel, yes, but that's MotoGP for you. You can be one of the twenty fastest riders alive - but all that matters is that you're always just a little slower than the next guy.  You've been demoted to dead wood, to borrow another term from Burgesss. Good luck, and goodbye!So maybe you're one of those riders who didn't appear last episode. Maybe you thought this meant you were safe. Bad luck, buddy: that means Mat and Peter just haven't gotten to you yet!Want more? Visit our website or support us on Patreon.

Who's got six thumbs in total and is back in their own recording booths, with audio that won't melt your ears off? That's right, it's the Oxley Bom MotoGP Podcast! Now, if your are a rider and are currently enjoying some well-deserved R&R, you might want to turn off this podcast. Because they might be off the bike, but that doesn't mean they're off the hook.This week, we're taking a page from the book of Jeremy Burgess when he said: "Really, riders are like light bulbs: if they start to flicker you screw one out, and put another one in." It's a ruthless and mean thing to say, but MotoGP can be a really ruthless and mean sport. And nobody is more ruthless and mean than your hosts Mat and Peter, right?So come join us in our first part of a two-episode rider review. We'll be doing the 'deadwood' (another Burgess-coined term!) this week, and hand out our best-of-class awards next week. So press play, and hope you're not mentioned in this episode...Want more?

Stellen Sie sich vor, ihr Lieblingsfussballclub, zum Beispiel „die rode Deufel vom Betzeberch“, haben beim Pokalspiel gegen Lundts Quatschverein ein bisschen Pech und verlieren 6:1. SECHS ZU EINS. Wie würde ein Gentleman und redlicher Hertha-Anhänger im Angesichts dieses Triumphes reagieren? Richtig, mit vornehmem Schweigen oder tröstenden Worten für die bedauernswerten Anhänger des unterlegenen Teams. Doch aus der Tasse der Menschlichkeit hat das Kaffeearschloch noch nie getrunken - und so setzt er sich feist und schwitzig, in seinem eilig bei Amazon bestellten Herthatrikot, ins Podcaststudio und geht Schmitt auf die Nüsse. Ab da ist Schluss mit Besinnlichkeit, bei Baywatch Berlin. Schmitt sieht rot und wird zum Teufel. Ja gut, sagen Sie, da sich Klaas nicht für Fussball interessiert, wird er sich ja sicher von Jakobs Hooliganverhalten angewidert abwenden und seinem Freund Schmitt zur Seite springen! Mitnichten, liebe HörerInnen von Baywatch Berlin, wenns darum geht auf einem armen 6:1-Willi rumzutrampeln, dann wird Klaas plötzlich zum Nerv-Ultra. Aber ach, das ist hier ja nicht Schmitts Sorgentelefon, sondern ein Teasertext, der Appetit auf die neue Folge Baywatch Berlin machen soll. Gab es neben Schreierei auch noch lohnenswerte Inhalte? Ja, die drei Herren waren auf der Motorradmesse, erörtern eine Checkerfrage, bei der türkische Emotionen auf einen Herrenhaarschnitt treffen und Lundt hat Silbereisens „Adventsfest der 100.000 Lichter“ geschaut. Alles schön, alles witzig runtererzählt, aber ist das alles noch von Bedeutung? Was ist der ganze Zirkus wert, wenn der eigene Club 6:1 in Berlin verliert… Du möchtest mehr über unsere Werbepartner erfahren? Hier findest du alle Infos & Rabatte: https://linktr.ee/BaywatchBerlin

He robbed 28 stagecoaches without firing a single shot, left poetry at crime scenes, and vanished into legend—this is the strange tale of Black Bart, the gentleman bandit.IN THIS EPISODE: Black Bart – just the name conjures up an image of a rugged man willing to mow you down in a hail of bullets if you looked at him wrong, especially during one of his infamous stagecoach robberies. But legends can be wrong, and the real Black Bart might not have been so black in the heart as we've been led to believe. (Black Bart: The Poet Outlaw) *** In 1957, eleven-year-old twins Jacqueline and Joanna were killed in a car accident. But the next year, some people say they were "reincarnated". (The Perplexing Pollocks Problem) *** For over a century, reports of abuse and murder came pouring out of the Topeka Insane Asylum. The tortures that took place within are nothing short of grotesque, and it makes one wonder how anyone could have possibly thought the so-called “treatments” would do anything other than cause the patients terrible suffering and horrific nightmares. (Horrors of the Topeka Insane Asylum) *** A newlywed woman goes sightseeing in a new town while her husband attends a conference nearby. Completely normal behavior for a newly married couple – but nothing that happens after these events makes any sense at all. We'll look at the confusing case of Judy Smith.
