Johnny Mac shares five stories, including that Karl Lagerfeld's famed cat Choupette has not received the reported $1.5 million inheritance seven years after his death due to a dispute involving the estate and French tax authorities; under French law pets can't inherit directly, so money would go to her caretaker, who says she has received nothing and works part-time to support the cat.

A record heat dome seals the city, the power fails for good, and one by one the residents of a nine-story walk-up flee north — until only Dana and Edith, the frail old woman across the hall, are left at the top. Dana tells herself she stays out of decency. But when the elevator dies and she ventures down a pitch-black, superheated stairwell for water, she finds a door propped open where no door should be, footsteps that climb when she climbs — and a radio voice that breaks from its script to admit a terrible truth: no one is coming. The first chapter of a four-part summer descent.Unlock an ad-free podcast experience with Caloroga Shark Media! Get all our shows on any player you love, hassle free!

Wren is a grid-stabilization engineer sent to a small town in week three of a killing heatwave, hunting the reason the lights keep failing in ways the models swear are impossible. Power doesn't drain into the ground like water. Except here it does — and the drain has a name. August stands where the streetlights die, apologizing for it, telling her to leave for her own good. When the whole county goes dark and there's nothing left but his voice and the heat and the current under his skin, she stops wanting to leave. He won't kiss her. People pay when the lights go out. She drives back out anyway.Unlock an ad-free podcast experience with Caloroga Shark Media! Get all our shows on any player you love, hassle free!

In the 2nd installment of "The Goodness Factor with Shelley Wade - New York Edition," we share some incredibly uplifting, feel-good news straight from the streets of New York City. Plus...The World Cup is upon us, but soccer isn't the only thing taking over the New York Tri-State Area. This episode we interview The Bridge Art Gallery's Cheryl Mack about how they're curating culture in the midst of the World Cup crowd with their brilliant (and totally free!) new Global Canvas Initiative at American Dream Mall. Designed to bring high culture to the football masses, Mack shares the inspiration behind the initiative & the logistics of launching during a global tournament. Listen in for your double-dose of inspiration!

Martin comes at nine in the morning with a folder and a detective inspector's name. Nora is ready. The evidence the other Nora assembled — the paint sample, the repair records, the accident report, Alan Birch's signed statement — is enough to reopen the investigation. What follows takes fourteen months: interviews, challenges, a second witness who had assumed she was mistaken. She was not mistaken. Geoffrey Peel is convicted. Deborah's mother takes Nora's hand outside the court and says something that changes the shape, if not the weight, of what Nora carries. The gaps grow smaller. The journal fills with ordinary days. She stands on the Thornfield road in the frost and says Deborah's name, and the silence that comes back is the right kind.Unlock an ad-free podcast experience with Caloroga Shark Media!

Nora listens to all eleven voice memos. In order, across one long night, she learns everything the other Nora has been building for eight months during the gaps: the accident report with its anomalies, the repair records from a Hathersage workshop with paint transfer matching Deborah's car, a witness who saw two sets of headlights on the Thornfield road and never came forward. And the name she has been not-saying for twelve years. The other Nora makes one thing clear: she is not a separate person. She is the part that refused to file it away. She has done everything she can alone. What comes next requires both of them.Unlock an ad-free podcast experience with Caloroga Shark Media! Get all our shows on any player you love, hassle free!

Reid Carter marks the 49th anniversary of Gary Gilmore's execution - the firing squad death that ended America's decade-long moratorium on capital punishment. January 17, 1977: Five riflemen, four live rounds, and a convicted killer who demanded the state kill him. Gilmore murdered two young Mormon fathers - Max Jensen, 24, and Bennie Bushnell, 25 - in back-to-back Utah robberies. Both complied. Both died anyway. His last words "Let's do it" later inspired Nike's billion-dollar "Just Do It" slogan. From abusive childhood to federal prison to firing squad - how one man's death wish reopened America's execution chambers.Unlock an ad-free podcast experience with Caloroga Shark Media!

Nora goes back through eleven years of journals looking for patterns she missed. The gaps cluster in October. They began, she realises now, the autumn after Deborah died. She calls Martin Hale, expecting a stranger, and finds a man who knows her well — who references three months of conversations she has no memory of, an investigation she has apparently been conducting during her gaps. The other Nora has found a witness. Someone who was on the Thornfield road that night and never came forward. She has a name: Geoffrey Peel. And she has left Nora a voice memo. The accident wasn't an accident. I've been trying to tell you this for twelve years. I can't do the last part alone.Unlock an ad-free podcast experience with Caloroga Shark Media!

Five Good News Stories: Rare Harry Potter Auction, Record Carrot Cake, Community Tips, Rope Swing Grandma, and Loose BullJohnny Mac shares five good news stories: a well-read rare first-edition, first-impression softcover of Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone (Bloomsbury, June 1997; one of 5,150) owned by Naveed is headed to auction and expected to fetch about $5,000, identifiable by printing anomalies like a duplicate wand list, a missing “o” in “philosophers” on the back cover, and early Hogwarts wording. In British Columbia, café owner Ted of Granville's Coffee marked an 80th birthday by assembling a 17-by-17-foot carrot cake weighing 6,044 pounds from 430 cakes, setting a new record. In Rhode Island, a town rallied after $20 was stolen from autistic barista Michael's tip jar, raising about $900 and prompting a safer jar. A 78-year-old woman went viral riding a huge Utah rope swing between 500-foot cliffs. In Virginia, a bull escaped near Eastern Mennonite University, was tranquilized, and returned. 00:10 Rare Harry Potter Find01:35 Giant Carrot Cake Record02:20 Tip Jar Kindness Rally03:29 Grandma Rope Swing Dare04:17 Loose Bull Near Campus John also hosts Daily Comedy NewsUnlock an ad-free podcast experience with Caloroga Shark Media!  For Apple users, hit the banner which says Uninterrupted Listening on your Apple podcasts app. Subscribe now for exclusive shows like 'Palace Intrigue,' and get bonus content from Deep Crown (our exclusive Palace Insider!)

The garden is no longer being subtle. Paths reroute to force Daphne toward Matt. The jasmine releases intoxicating waves of scent whenever they're in the same room. And when she finally admits what she's feeling—that she can sense every plant's spring desire, and it's becoming indistinguishable from her own—the orchids bloom so dramatically that denial is no longer possible.Matt suggests the potting shed as neutral ground. It isn't. When they finally kiss, the dormant fall bulbs wake up and bloom six months early, surrounding them in an impossible spring.Two hours later, Daphne emerges covered in pollen, and the garden is radiating satisfaction. She's staying for the May Day festival. She might be staying longer than that.The garden has never been happier.Unlock an ad-free podcast experience with Caloroga Shark Media!

Nora is thirty-eight, precise, self-contained, and very good at managing her condition. She has had dissociative gaps since she was twenty-six — hours she simply cannot account for — and she has built her entire adult life around systems that compensate for them. When her mother has a stroke, Nora returns to the Derbyshire market town she left twenty years ago and tells herself six weeks is manageable. Then her neighbour mentions a conversation they had yesterday — about Deborah Hale, dead twelve years, Nora's closest friend — that Nora has no memory of. There is mud on her floor mat. A receipt in the door pocket from a village forty minutes north, timestamped during the gap. Paid in cash. The other Nora has been somewhere. And whatever she's looking for, she has been looking for a long time.Unlock an ad-free podcast experience with Caloroga Shark Media! Get all our shows on any player you love, hassle free!

Reid Carter exposes the four-month killing spree that terrorized Los Angeles between October 1977 and February 1978. Cousins Kenneth Bianchi and Angelo Buono posed as undercover police officers, flashing fake badges and luring ten women and girls - ages 12 to 28 - into their car. Victims were taken to Buono's upholstery shop where they were raped, tortured, and strangled before their naked bodies were dumped on hillsides across the city. Women cut their hair and dyed it blonde. Nightclubs emptied. One victim was injected with Windex. Another's car was pushed off a cliff with her body in the trunk. Tomorrow: How they finally got caught.Unlock an ad-free podcast experience with Caloroga Shark Media! Get all our shows on any player you love, hassle free!

Daphne Laurel arrives in Connecticut to claim her inheritance: a sprawling botanical garden, a quaint cottage, and apparently a magical gift she didn't know she had. Within hours of stepping into the greenhouse, she's overwhelmed by a strange awareness—she can feel what the plants feel. And in May, what they feel is want.The handsome caretaker isn't helping. Neither is the vine that trips her directly into his arms, triggering a bloom cascade that makes her attraction embarrassingly visible.Her aunt's notes make the situation clear: the garden wants an heir. It's been waiting. And it's chosen the gardener as its candidate.Daphne should definitely leave. She's going to stay anyway.Unlock an ad-free podcast experience with Caloroga Shark Media!

Johnny Mac shares five upbeat stories: Jamie turned his intentionally clumsy “bad” paintings—first made as a joke gift for his wife in 2024—into a side business earning thousands, with pieces selling for $60 to several hundred; he's fulfilled heavy demand and even had Judi Dench sign and donate one for auction.

Marcus doesn't call the police. He does something harder. He calls everyone — his ex-wife, his sister, his daughter, his oldest friend — not to be believed, but to be on record. To be the first version of the story. Then he sets a trap, and waits in the dark of his own apartment, and the door opens. The confrontation lasts less than five minutes. The Likeness looks at him with his own expression and says only: you weren't using it. Marcus makes a choice that costs him everything he came here to build. Because there is one thing they cannot take. And he is going home to it.Unlock an ad-free podcast experience with Caloroga Shark Media! Get all our shows on any player you love, hassle free!

Johnny Mac shares five good news stories: a Chinese automaker patented a voice-activated car toilet that slides from under the passenger seat, stores waste in a tank with a rotating heating element to evaporate liquid and dry solids, and uses an exhaust fan to manage odors. A University of Oregon study of 20 healthy adults (ages 20–28) compared hot water immersion, traditional dry saunas, and far infrared saunas, finding hot water immersion raised core body temperature the most, boosting blood flow and supporting vascular health when done in moderation.

The last day arrives, and Nora makes her choice—not from obligation, but from genuine desire. She wades into the sea and offers herself as keeper, not because she owes a debt but because she wants this life, this place, this possibility.The sea accepts. The balance is restored. And Jonah, for the first time in thirty years, walks across the property line without pain.He could go anywhere now. See the world he missed, find what remains of the life he lost. Instead, he chooses to stay. Not because he's bound, but because he's finally free to want something—and what he wants is her.Three months later, the lighthouse is operational again, the boundary is tended, and two people who spent their lives running from connection have finally found a place worth staying for.Unlock an ad-free podcast experience with Caloroga Shark Media!

Marcus hasn't slept. He understands now what is being built — a version of him, three years in the making, precise enough to pass at a distance. The messages, the damaged friendships, the quiet erosion of everyone who knows him well: it was all preparation. Clearance work. When Marcus disappears, no one will find the seam. He calls his daughter and hears how far the damage has already reached. Then he follows himself home. Three blocks through a crowded city, close enough to see the coat is right, the posture is right, the gait almost his. And in a forgotten cloud folder, he finds his own obituary.

Johnny Mac shares five positive stories: Croatia has been declared free of landmines after more than two decades of demining following the 1990s Balkan Wars, removing about 107,000 mines at a cost of over $1 billion and the lives of 40–60 deminers.

Marcus investigates. The apartment sat vacant for six months before he moved in. His entry fob was used twice on nights he was out of town. His email was accessed, read, and left perfectly unchanged. But the worst discoveries aren't digital — they're human. A friendship that ended over something he apparently said. A professional reference who went cold after a mysterious call.
