You've wandered down to the river to listen to its gentle song – but what's that strange birdsong? A metallic chirruping from the far bank... it's a dipper, it's while bib bobbing at the water's edge. And now a kingfisher zips past with a hoarse, high-pitched whistle. Moments of magic on an overcast autumn day.

This Day in Legal History: Massachusetts Institutes Death Penalty for HeresyOn November 4, 1646, the Massachusetts General Court enacted a law that imposed the death penalty for heresy, marking one of the most extreme expressions of religious intolerance in early American colonial history. The law required all members of the colony to affirm the Bible as the true and authoritative Word of God. Failure to do so was not merely frowned upon—it was made a capital offense. This legislation reflected the theocratic underpinnings of the Massachusetts Bay Colony, which had been established by Puritans seeking religious freedom for themselves but not necessarily for others.The Puritan leadership equated dissent with disorder, and heresy with treason against divine authority. The law was aimed particularly at groups such as Quakers, Baptists, and others who challenged orthodox Puritan theology. While it is unclear whether anyone was actually executed under this specific statute, it laid the foundation for later persecution, including the execution of Mary Dyer, a Quaker, in 1660. The law exemplifies how early colonial governments wielded both civil and religious authority in tandem.It also foreshadows the centuries-long struggle in American legal and cultural history to define the boundaries between church and state. Though the U.S. Constitution would later enshrine religious freedom in the First Amendment, this 1646 law demonstrates how precarious that freedom was in earlier periods. The harshness of the law also underscores the broader context of 17th-century Europe and its colonies, where religious uniformity was often enforced through state power. Massachusetts would gradually shift away from such punishments, but not without considerable resistance.Sam Bankman-Fried's legal team will argue before the 2nd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals that his conviction for defrauding FTX customers should be overturned. The 33-year-old former crypto executive is currently serving a 25-year sentence after being found guilty in 2023 of stealing $8 billion from FTX users. His lawyers claim the trial judge unfairly excluded key evidence—specifically, information supporting Bankman-Fried's belief that FTX had sufficient assets to cover customer withdrawals. Prosecutors counter that the evidence against him, including internal records and testimony from former associates, was overwhelming.Bankman-Fried was once considered a leading figure in the crypto space, known for his high-profile donations and media presence before his downfall. During the trial, former executives at FTX and Alameda Research testified that he instructed them to misuse customer funds to cover hedge fund losses. He was convicted of two fraud counts and five conspiracy charges. Judge Lewis Kaplan, who sentenced him in March 2024, said Bankman-Fried knowingly acted criminally but underestimated the risk of detection. There are also unconfirmed reports that some in his circle are lobbying Donald Trump for a pardon, though Trump has not commented. Bankman-Fried is currently incarcerated at a low-security facility in California and is expected to be released in 2044.Sam Bankman-Fried's lawyers to argue for new fraud trial for FTX founder | ReutersGetty Images has largely lost its high-profile UK lawsuit against Stability AI, the company behind the image-generating tool Stable Diffusion. Getty had accused Stability AI of copyright infringement, claiming the AI system was trained on millions of its images without permission. However, Getty dropped the core part of the case mid-trial due to insufficient evidence about where and how the AI was trained, leaving that central legal question unresolved. The remaining claims focused on trademark infringement and secondary copyright violations.The High Court ruled that Getty partially succeeded on the trademark issue, noting Stable Diffusion sometimes generated images that included Getty's watermark. But the judge emphasized that this finding was historically narrow and of limited scope. Getty's broader copyright claim was dismissed, with the court finding that Stable Diffusion does not store or directly reproduce copyrighted works. Legal experts called the ruling disappointing for copyright holders and warned it exposed gaps in UK intellectual property protections regarding AI.Both companies claimed aspects of victory: Getty pointed to the trademark ruling and the recognition that AI models can be subject to IP laws, while Stability AI emphasized that the decision effectively cleared the core copyright concerns. Getty warned the decision highlights the difficulty even well-funded companies face in protecting creative works and urged governments to strengthen transparency rules around AI training data. Legal analysts say the ruling leaves a major legal question unresolved—whether training AI on copyrighted content without consent constitutes infringement under UK law.Getty Images largely loses landmark UK lawsuit over AI image generator | ReutersPennsylvania lawmakers are advancing a regulatory and fee-based proposal targeting “skill games”—arcade-style gambling machines—without first resolving the legal and oversight framework surrounding them. Senate Bill 1079, introduced by Senators Gene Yaw and Anthony Williams, proposes a $500 monthly fee per machine, capped at 50,000 terminals, potentially raising $300 million annually. However, I argue that this revenue-driven approach puts fiscal goals ahead of sound regulation. The bill includes some regulatory provisions like machine limits, ID checks, and a centralized monitoring system, but these appear to have been crafted after the fee structure, not as foundational policy.Skill games have operated in a legal gray area since a 2023 court ruling found they don't meet the state's definition of gambling devices. That ambiguity has persisted, leaving the machines largely unregulated but widespread. Instead of clarifying the legal status of these machines and building a regulatory framework first, lawmakers now seem focused on monetizing them quickly—potentially to preempt a stricter tax plan proposed by Governor Shapiro. The bill notably keeps enforcement under the Department of Revenue rather than the more experienced Gaming Control Board, raising questions about effective oversight.This structure may incentivize the rapid deployment of machines to meet revenue goals, risking poor compliance and ineffective safeguards. In sum, I go on to say the proposal uses regulation to justify revenue collection, rather than using revenue to support a robust regulatory system. Without a clear legal definition, licensing process, and proper enforcement authority, the current plan prioritizes money over governance.Pennsylvania Skill Game Fee Regulations Have Questionable Timing This is a public episode.

1. Criticism of Gavin Newsom The hosts mock California Governor Gavin Newsom for allegedly misrepresenting his upbringing as impoverished. They highlight his privileged background, connections to the Getty family, and early business ventures. Newsom is portrayed as part of a broader trend of wealthy leftists promoting socialism while living in luxury. 2. Democratic Party and Radicalism The episode argues that the Democratic Party has shifted radically left, embracing socialism and Marxism. Figures like Comrade Mamdani are cited as examples of extreme ideology within the party. The hosts lament the lack of moderate Democrats willing to challenge the radical wing, referencing Bill Maher as a rare voice of reason. 3. Bill Maher’s Commentary Maher is quoted warning Democrats about the dangers of aligning with far-left candidates like Mamdani. He calls for a “Sister Souljah moment,” referencing Bill Clinton’s strategic distancing from radical elements during his campaign. 4. Human Rights in Nigeria Senator Cruz discusses Christian persecution in Nigeria, citing over 50,000 murders since 2009. He criticizes the Nigerian government for corruption and complicity in violence. Proposes sanctions and leveraging U.S. aid to pressure Nigeria into protecting human rights. 5. Recognition of Somaliland The guest, born in Somalia, advocates for U.S. recognition of Somaliland as an independent nation. Somaliland is praised for its democratic governance, stability, and alignment with U.S. values. The argument is framed as a strategic move to counter instability in the Horn of Africa. 6. Bill Gates and Climate Change The hosts poke fun at Bill Gates for allegedly reversing his stance on climate change alarmism. Gates is quoted saying the “doomsday view” is wrong and that other global issues deserve more attention. The episode criticizes climate policies, solar energy failures, and the hypocrisy of elites using private jets. 7. Fracking and U.S. Emissions The hosts credit George Mitchell, a Texas oilman, with pioneering fracking and reducing U.S. carbon emissions. They argue that natural gas has helped the U.S. lead in emission reductions, while China remains the top polluter.

From oil wells in the Arabian desert to the marble halls of California's governor's mansion, The Getty–Newsom Pipeline traces how one of America's richest family fortunes helped shape one of its most ambitious politicians. This episode follows the money, influence, and mentorship that flowed from J. Paul Getty's empire through the trusts, boardrooms, and social networks that later elevated Gavin Newsom. It explores how decades of wealth, politics, and education merged into a single current of power—and why that current could carry Newsom all the way to a presidential run in 2028.Email: thefacthunter@mail.com

In an extraordinarily rare interview, artist Raymond Pettibon discusses his journey, from early punk rock works to present day artistic themes, technique and rhythms, the Getty archives and more. Topics Include: Raymond Pettibon has been drawing constantly since childhood, "always with a pen in hand" Started with crayons, pastels, pencil - India ink came later as too messy Early influences included Albrecht Dürer, etchings, and comic book art equally Self-taught artist who learned through trial and error, never attended art school Studied economics in college, bringing analytical thinking to his art practice Approaches work as fine art, not commercial art, values creative freedom Rarely takes commissions - the more constraints, the less he likes it Band artwork usually selected from existing drawings rather than commissioned pieces Black Flag's "Nervous Breakdown" images came from his "Captive Chains" book Artwork inspired by "Blackboard Jungle" film - students destroying teacher's jazz records Has experience teaching, can identify with teacher-student conflicts from that period Left SST Records in 1985-86 due to oppressive environment Describes certain subjects he returns to repeatedly over the decades Works on multiple drawings simultaneously, some remaining unfinished for years Enters a meditative "fugue state" when drawing or writing Never experiences artist's block - blank paper doesn't intimidate him Believes he can write about any subject with natural fluency Doesn't plan series - they develop organically through returning to themes Sometimes works directly on gallery walls during exhibitions for coherence Used to work all day and night when deeply engaged Dislikes deadlines - they make work harder, not easier for him Sees deadlines as triggering psychological rebellion despite wanting to please collectors Hates when people suggest ideas - it "breaks the spell" Admits he's not the greatest draftsman but learned on the job Recently donated personal archive to Getty Research Institute for scholarly access Participated in Getty's research scholar program, one artist among academics Program reconnected him with economics after years away from the discipline Still has unfinished drawings in studio, some over 30 years old Currently creating less due to frustrations with art world dynamics Values complete artistic freedom - no curator has ever asked him to change High resolution version of this podcast is available at: www.Patreon.com/VinylGuide Photo by John Newsom Apple: https://tinyurl.com/tvg-ios Spotify: https://tinyurl.com/tvg-spot Amazon Music: https://tinyurl.com/tvg-amazon Support the show at Patreon.com/VinylGuide

Throughout the twentieth century, few names loomed as large in the business and financial worlds as John Paul Getty. Once the richest man in the world, Getty made his fortune in the oil industry and an avid art collector, with a massive collection that served as a basis for the Getty Museum, the wealthiest museum in the world.  Getty's wealth and business acumen made him a household name well beyond his death in 1976; however, that same wealth and notoriety made him a target for con artists and other criminals. Among those who sought to extort the Getty family, no attempt was more incredible and sensational than the kidnapping of Getty's favorite grandchild, J. Paul Getty III, by an Italian crime syndicate in 1973.At first, the scion of the Getty family refused to negotiate with kidnappers, arguing that, if he paid the money, they would only kidnap other members of this family. But Getty reconsidered his position just a few weeks later, when his grandson's ear arrived in the mail, with the promise of other body parts, should he not comply with their demands.ReferencesAssociated Press. 1973.

 What if the very struggles you avoid—the pain, the awkwardness, the breakdown—were the only path to strength and freedom? In this episode of An Ounce, we explore the lessons of the chick in the egg and the caterpillar in the cocoon. Both teach us a universal truth: without struggle, there is no growth. Without hardship, there is no flight.If you've ever been in your own “caterpillar soup” moment, this is for you.

Episode 604The interview with Steven D. Kelly is an intense exposé highlighting his journey from laser engineer to self proclaimed whistleblower, recounting a lifetime entangled with intelligence agencies, clandestine mafia networks, and the alleged satanic underbelly of elite society. He paints a disturbing picture of cities like Long Beach and others as centers of occult activity, connecting underground reservoirs to Masonic rituals and satanic gatherings that supposedly target children. The narrative drifts through family legacies, where personal connections with the CIA and NSA are described as part of a generational handoff, and Kelly's own experience transitions from secret military contracts into a battle against sinister forces.Claiming to have developed advanced laser and free energy technology, Kelly details how his inventions became coveted by global arms dealers and intelligence operatives, but were ultimately stifled through various shadowy means. The central focus of his whistleblowing revolves around the Getty Center, which he alleges is built atop vast subterranean bunkers housing secret art collections and a large number of trafficked children. He asserts the presence of a "caver" society within these bunkers, comprising psychic warriors and shape shifting reptilians engaged in psychic warfare battles that, in his narrative, are every bit as real as conventional conflict.Throughout the conversation, Kelly invokes the awareness of historical secret societies, interwoven religious conspiracies, and characterizes political figures such as Donald Trump, Elon Musk, and Jeffrey Epstein as part of a mafia-like network operating above the law. He frequently references psychic skills as the true weapon against these dark powers, suggesting that technological advancement is secondary to mental and psychic combat. Lacing the testimony with accounts of government harassment, surveillance, and attempts to silence or discredit him, Kelly situates his work as a desperate mission to expose and dismantle these allegedly entrenched global conspiracies.

Send us a textThe Lord's Supper , holy Communion is an integral part of Christian worship and the singing done at the Table should be rich in content filled with biblical orthodox teaching as well as praise and prayer. Jesus set the example at inaugural holy meal recorded in Matthew 26:30 and Mark 14:26. After singing a hymn (probably Psalm 118) they went out to the Mount of Olives.Consider the teaching of the Apostle Paul in 1 Corinthians 10:14-21 and Luke's words in Acts 2:42 and Acts 20:7. The Supper was frequent apparently every First Day of the week when the disciples, the believers came together to eat the Lord's Supper.

The Lord's Supper , holy Communion is an integral part of Christian worship and the singing done at the Table should be rich in content filled with biblical orthodox teaching as well as praise and prayer. Jesus set the example at inaugural holy meal recorded in Matthew 26:30 and Mark 14:26. After singing a hymn (probably Psalm 118) they went out to the Mount of Olives. Consider the teaching of the Apostle Paul in 1 Corinthians 10:14-21 and Luke's words in Acts 2:42 and Acts 20:7. The Supper was frequent apparently every First Day of the week when the disciples, the believers came together to eat the Lord's Supper. See 1 Cor. 11 repeated phrase "when you come together".

In this episode of The Sacred Speaks, John sits down with Adele Getty—spiritual teacher, author, and cultural bridge—to explore the urgent, timeless wisdom of her book A Sense of the Sacred. Though written nearly 30 years ago, Adele's work feels more relevant than ever in a world hungry for meaning, ritual, and reconnection with the more-than-human world. Together, John and Adele reflect on the lost world of animism, the power of symbolic action, and the aching grief of cultural severance from the sacred. Adele shares her path as a modern-day rite-maker, offering personal stories, cross-cultural insights, and poetic invitations to remember what it means to live in a living world. The conversation moves fluidly between anthropology, personal spirituality, indigenous wisdom, and the transformative potential of ceremony—especially in a time of ecological crisis and soul loss. This episode is both an intellectual dialogue and a soul invocation. If you've ever felt the quiet mourning of a life unlived—or sensed the sacred just beneath the surface of ordinary things—this conversation is for you. Key Themes: Animism as a lived cosmology—not a belief system, but a relationship The grief of modernity and the longing for reconnection Ceremony as both personal healing and collective repair The sacred role of women, humor, and voice in ritual How to begin building meaningful ceremonies in contemporary life Why symbolic acts matter in a disenchanted world Reflections on the psychedelic resurgence and ritual ethics Episode Timeline: (00:00) Introduction and Guest Announcement (00:37) Podcast Updates and Announcements (02:25) Introducing Adele Getty (04:02) The Book as a Lament and a Love Song (09:05) Adele's Personal Background and Influences (11:56) Animism and the Cosmology of Connection (16:44) Ceremony as Daily Practice and Communal Healing (24:54) Spirit, Voice, and Song in Ritual Work (35:32) Historical Context and Cultural Amnesia (47:34) The Psychedelic Explosion and Western Disconnection (50:26) Modern Psychedelics, Integration, and Ethical Ceremony (51:24) Nature as Teacher and Ceremony Ground (52:35) Creating Sacred Spaces in Ordinary Life (01:14:21) The Role of Humor, Play, and the Trickster (01:18:51) Symbolic Acts and Soul Reenchantment (01:19:57) Final Reflections on Ceremony and Belonging (01:26:44) Closing Thoughts and Upcoming Offerings Connect with Adele Getty & The Limina Foundation: Website: https://www.liminafoundation.org/ Facebook: @liminafoundation Instagram: @liminafoundation

 Pluto was a planet—until scientists held a vote and kicked it out. What else have we been hilariously wrong about? From medicine to space, here's why certainty is overrated…Pluto used to be our ninth planet—until it wasn't.In 2006, a group of scientists demoted it to “dwarf planet” status, and suddenly, everything we knew about the solar system got a little weirder.But Pluto's not the only thing we've misunderstood. We once thought smoking was healthy, that babies didn't feel pain, and that doctors didn't need to wash their hands. Oops.This episode of An Ounce is a hilarious reminder that some of our “facts” might not be facts forever.So the next time you hear someone say, “It's settled science,”—you might want to smile politely… and leave the door open.

David Cavazos, better known as Big Sleeps, is an artist whose work is displayed at museums from the Natural History Museum to the Getty. But his journey started during a turbulent youth in Pico-Union, where he honed his craft and created a style known as Indigenous L.A. Lettering. After surviving a harrowing adolescence, he found inspiration through tattooing & muraling, which catapulted him to adulation and respect from Japan to Venezuela to back home in L.A. This is the origin story of Big Sleeps.
