Today on Black Dragon Biker TV: 3 Dead, Drunk Driver? No Arrest Three lives lost. No justice served. No arrest made. On Sunday, November 24, 2024, tragedy struck on State Route 80 near mile marker 308, just south of Saint David, Arizona. A red Infiniti SUV crossed the center line and slammed into three motorcycles ridden by members of the Chosen Few MC Nation — Arizona Chapter. Two full-patch brothers died on the scene. A third was rushed to the hospital, where he was later pronounced dead. The driver of the SUV, who witnesses say reeked of alcohol, survived with non-life-threatening injuries. But now, eight months later, there's still no arrest. No charges. No accountability. In fact, police at the scene quickly removed the driver, reportedly stating they feared retaliation from arriving club members. Since then, the families of the victims and the Chosen Few MC say they've been stonewalled by investigators, offered no real answers, and left to mourn without justice. In this episode, we discuss: • What happened that night and why it matters • The suspicious silence from authorities • The treatment of biker victims vs. other communities • And why the Chosen Few MC Nation and these families won't stop until there's accountability Join Black Dragon, Lavish T. Williams, and Logic as we shine a light on a story too many are trying to ignore — and stand with the families and brothers demanding justice.

“I don't trust nobody and nobody trusts me.”  In this episode, we're diving into one of literature's most enduring classics: Mary Shelley's Frankenstein. From Victor's scientific ambition to the creature's desperate search for companionship, we explore how Taylor's lyrics illuminate the Gothic themes of isolation, creation, and the consequences of playing God. Join us as we examine "Don't Blame Me," "Look What You Made Me Do," and "False God" through the lens of literature's first science fiction novel—and discover why this 1818 masterpiece feels more relevant than ever in our age of artificial intelligence.

Today on Black Dragon Biker TV: Man Claims Ex-Wife is Raising His Kids in Pagan's Clubhouse During a War! Now THIS is wild. A man has come forward with shocking allegations: he claims his ex-wife is raising their children inside a Pagan's Motorcycle Clubhouse — right in the middle of an all-out biker war. According to him, not only is she living there, but she's exposing the kids to club culture, potential violence, and a high-tension environment tied to ongoing investigations, shootings, and SWAT raids. While the courts haven't issued any public statements yet, the story raises real questions: • Is this child endangerment? • How far is too far when it comes to club loyalty vs. parenting responsibility? • And what role do family courts play when the MC world and home life collide? In this episode, we dig into: • The man's claims and what we know so far • The implications of raising children in an outlaw clubhouse • The reality of club life during internal and external conflict • And what this could mean legally, socially, and culturally Join Black Dragon, Lavish T. Williams, and Logic as we break down one of the most bizarre stories to hit the MC world in 2025. Watch live on: Black Dragon Biker TV: /blackdragonbikertv Lavish T.

On this episode, Tony Brueski digs into the enigmatic history of Chicago's Excalibur Club, housed in a Gothic-style building dating back to 1892. We'll explore its origins as the Chicago Historical Society's headquarters, the tragic events of the Great Chicago Fire, and the evolution into a famed nightclub. Delving into reported hauntings, including the mysterious Lady in White and unexplained phenomena, we'll separate fact from fiction, examining psychological explanations and debunking persistent myths, such as its alleged use as a morgue for Eastland Disaster victims.

Between the golden dunes and the forest of Hardelot stand the ruins of a castle unlike any other... A 13th-century medieval fortress, a Victorian manor house embedded in its ruins, and an Elizabethan theater renowned for its ecological audacity: Hardelot is an architectural palimpsest where centuries dialogue with one another. Philippe Hurepel designed an innovative octagonal enclosure, the English added a Gothic revival in the 19th century, and the 21st century grafted on a theater made of wood and bamboo, subtly blending into the landscape. From the clatter of war to the precision of contemporary renovations, this place tells the story of both the building and the people. In this episode, we explore Hardelot as a living architecture laboratory, between memory, uses, and reinvention. Welcome to Hardelot.

Episode 95: Sinners This week on Philosophy in Film, the gang steps into the blood-soaked confessional of Ryan Coogler's 2025 thriller, Sinners. Nestled in the indie-crime-vampire-redemption-gangster genre, the film follows Eli Morgan, a disgraced pastor-turned-defense attorney, as he's pulled into the moral murk of faith, failure, and a client who might not be entirely human. Craig hacks away at Producer's Notes (9:37) with only slight collateral damage, while Alain cracks open the Book of Beauclair (21:04) to lay out Eli's twilight descent. Chris then lights a candle for Philosopher's Corner (47:20), tuning into the film's musical language, where brooding jazz and sacred overtones echo themes of guilt, redemption, and longing. At the Round Table (53:10), the gang debates whether Sinners bites into something meaningful or just bares its fangs, before Reviews (1:43:22) and Mailbag (1:55:35) offer closing testimony from the congregation. As always, we reflect on the philosophical and non-philosophical burdens carried through the film's long dark night, because even the damned listen close.

In a moment that stunned the world in 2019, the famed Notre-Dame in Paris went up in flames, threatening the future of the centuries-old Gothic treasure. Philippe Villeneuve, the chief architect of the cathedral's restoration, recounts the collective effort to bring the building back to life while honoring its history. Listen for a story of craftsmanship, devotion and innovation — and learn how more than 2,000 hands worked to return this landmark to the world.Want to help shape TED's shows going forward?

Today on Black Dragon Biker TV: Stupid Biker Gets Eaten by Bear Yeah, you read that right. Omar Farang Zin, 48, was touring the famous Transfăgărășan Road in Romania — often dubbed “the most beautiful road in the world” — when he made a spectacularly dumb decision: he got too close to a mother bear and her three cubs for a selfie. This wasn't just a bad idea — it was his last. He'd been filming himself with bears along the trip, but this photo op turned deadly. The bear attacked and killed him on the spot. Nature doesn't play games — and clearly, this biker did. Also in today's episode:

We're almost embarrassed to admit it, but it's been ten years since we last chatted with Silvia Moreno-Garcia, shortly after her first novel Signal to Noise had been published. Now she's back, talking about an excellent new novel The Bewitching. Along the way, we touch upon several of her other novels, including the bestselling Mexican Gothic, Silver Nitrate, The Seventh Veil of Salome, The Daughter of Doctor Moreau, and others. We also discuss her relationships with writers from Lovecraft and James M. Cain to the traditions of Gothic fiction. even touching upon C.L.Moore and some of Silvia's own contemporaries. It's a lively chat with an endlessly surprising writer.

Welcome back to the True Hauntings Podcast — where the shadows speak, the walls remember, and the spirits never rest.In this episode we take you deep into the dark heart of one of Western Australia's most haunted and historic buildings — the Fremantle Arts Centre. But before it was a hub of creativity and culture… it was something far more sinister.Originally built in the 1860s as the Fremantle Lunatic Asylum, this imposing Gothic limestone structure holds a past soaked in sorrow, tragedy, and — many say — the paranormal. Over the decades, it has served as a mental hospital, a women's home, a naval base, and now an arts venue. But some believe the spirits of those who suffered here never left…Visitors and staff alike have reported disembodied screams, phantom footsteps echoing through empty halls, and sudden icy chills even on the hottest summer days. One of the most frequently seen apparitions is that of a woman in white, believed to be a former patient who died in anguish. Others claim to have seen the figure of a sad-eyed man staring from the upper windows — long after the building should be empty.So what secrets are still locked behind those towering stone walls? Is it residual energy from a tortured past... or are the ghosts of the Fremantle Arts Centre still trying to make their presence known?Let's explore the evidence, the eyewitness accounts, and the haunted history of this chilling location.Is the Fremantle Arts Centre truly haunted — or is it just the building's dark legacy playing tricks on our minds?Stay with us… if you dare.

Freddy Silva is an author, a speaker and an independent researcher of ancient knowledge and lost civilizations, in particular the temples and other megalithic sites our ancestors built and left behind. The old cultures knew where to build these things to harness the flow of energy. In Freddy Silva's mind, they are portals.“All of these places around the world that we call temples, for lack of a better word, are located at seismically active spots, and the foundation on which they stand create an electrical charge or current along the landscape.”The builders also carefully chose the rocks they used to build their temples. They would sometimes go hundreds of miles to find the right stones, which have the properties to act as a kind of energy field.“All this makes the laws of physics act differently within these sites”, says Freddy.Very few of the megalithic temples were burial sites. They were used for out of body experiences, shamanism and “accessing information from an astral reference library”.“We can call them portals because they literally punch a hole in the way we view the third dimension, and they get you to access another level of reality.”Today we know that the heightened energetic lines where old megalithic temples are found are telluric currents. NASA has actually mapped them.“Anywhere these telluric currents cross on the surface of the earth, you'll find a standing stone, a dolmen, a mound, a pyramid, a stonehenge”, says Freddy.Thousands of years ago, people knew how to pick up on these energetic lines. They didn't really need to build anything to harness the energy. So why did many of them do that? Freddy Silva thinks they wanted to “x-mark” the highly charged places by placing megaliths on them and preserve them, because they knew that humans in the future – us – would forget this knowledge.“That's the only explanation that makes sense to me.”In fact, not all ancient cultures built megaliths. Neither the indigenous Australians nor the Hopis did, for example. They just knew where the sacred places were.When Christianity arrived, we were well into forgetfulness. Interestingly enough, however, the Gothic cathedrals of the late medieval era were built on sacred sites. The ancient knowledge had gone underground and secretly been preserved and conveyed, starting with the mystery schools of Egypt and continuing with the Essenes and the Gnostics. The Knights templar were one of these groups that were privy to the old wisdom“They were essentially the Essenes under a different name.”The Templars oversaw the erection of some of the most magnificent Gothic cathedrals in Europe in the 12th and 13th century. “They built sacred spaces disguised as catholic churches. This is the best joke in history”, Freddy quips.He believes that the knowledge of “the gods” – how nature really works – goes all the way back to the Atlantean civilization, which collapsed in the Younger Dryas period 12,000 to 13,000 years ago.The cataclysm that ended the previous high civilizations was likely caused by a devastating bombardment of cosmic debris, which gave rise to an obsession our ancestors had with looking at the sky.“Like in Central America. Why this obsession with long range calendars? The Maya have something like 14 calendars, and some cover hundreds of thousands of years.”Our ancestors are telling us a cautionary tale. Today scientists know that the chunks of rock that created the big flood – the bulk of the Taurid meteor stream – are coming back between 2036 and 2042.But Freddy Silva is hopeful. We can be prepared.“The old cultures teach us that we are the Gods we've been waiting for. The help is there for us to find.”Freddy Silva's website

In our last episode about Amalasuintha and the end of the Ostrogothic Kingdom, we said we were next going to turn to the Visigothic Kingdom. But the story of the Visigothic Kingdom can't be told without knowing a little more about the history of Gothic religion.  Both Visigoths and Ostrogoths were Christian by the time they appear in ancient sources. They were the earliest Germanic group to convert to Christianity. But what was their religion like before that? We know almost nothing about it. But not nothing entirely.

Today on Black Dragon Biker TV: SWAT Raids Pagan's MC House – Outlaws MC Shooting Cited The fallout continues after the drive-by shooting at the Outlaws MC clubhouse in Newton, North Carolina, on June 8th. Two men were shot — one of them a patched Outlaw, who later died from his injuries. Since the shooting, rumors and internal law enforcement radio traffic have pointed to possible Pagan's MC involvement. Though no official charges have been filed tying the club directly to the shooting, yesterday's SWAT raid on a Pagan's MC clubhouse suggests otherwise. Authorities executed a high-risk search, reportedly based on ongoing investigations linked to the Newton shooting. One man was arrested, and police have confirmed the raid is connected to the June 8th attack. In this episode, we break down: What happened during the Newton drive-by shooting The law enforcement chatter linking the Pagan's MC to the attack Details from the SWAT raid and the arrest that followed Whether this marks a new chapter in club conflict And what this means for club visibility, retaliation, and MC relations moving forward Join Black Dragon, Lavish T.

Today on Black Dragon Biker TV: When Club Beef Becomes Work Beef What happens when club politics follow you to the job site? This week, a workplace turned into a war zone when two men allegedly connected to the Hells Angels and Mongols MC got into a fight at work — and it ended with two people stabbed, one man fighting for his life, and another facing attempted murder charges. When job beef becomes club beef, things can get silly, dangerous, and deadly in a hurry. This is a prime example of why MC tension doesn't belong in the workplace, and why some people can't separate the patch from the paycheck. Also in today's episode: Firefighters ambushed in Idaho — a shocking incident that has emergency responders on high alert. In this episode, we discuss: The stabbing incident tied to alleged Hells Angels and Mongols MC members What really went down at the workplace and how it escalated The dangers of bringing street politics into professional spaces And the Idaho firefighter ambush — why it happened, and what it says about public safety tensionsPlease consider sponsoring the channel by signing up for our channel memberships.

Simply put, music is a huge deal in the Northland, where we are charmed with several music centers to help us scratch our creative itch. There's no doubt that one of the most special - and historic - is the Sacred Heart Music Center, a prominent music venue in Duluth's Central Hillside neighborhood that is as stunning as it is significant. A community cornerstone for more than a century, this building dates back to 1896, constructed as the Sacred Heart Cathedral during times of urban renewal in the area. It's undergone many changes over the years, and today stands tall, as a 400-seat live music venue with renowned acoustics showcasing music of regional, national and international artists around the clock. This remarkable space is fit with an incredible recording studio, a famous Felgemaker organ and the distinction of being one of just three neo-Gothic churches with three towers unique to Northern Minnesota - and that's just the beginning. Today, Mark Nicklawske, a member on the Board of Directors for the Sacred Heart Music Center, is here to get us AMPED about this life-changing space.

Today on Black Dragon Biker TV: Cops Take Bikie Club's Luxury Cars!!!Authorities are cracking down hard — and this time they're coming not for the bikes, but for the cars. In a high-profile raid overseas, police have seized multiple luxury vehicles from members of a known bikie club, as part of an ongoing effort to dismantle what law enforcement calls organized criminal networks posing as motorcycle clubs.From Lamborghinis and BMWs to custom SUVs, these high-dollar seizures are part of a coordinated effort to hit clubs where it hurts — their image, their assets, and their status. In this episode, we discuss: Who the bikie club is and why they were targeted What was taken and the legal justification behind the raids How law enforcement worldwide is shifting tactics And what this means for club image, asset protection, and government overreachJoin Black Dragon, Lavish T. Williams, and Logic as we break it all down and ask: Is this justice, or a media stunt meant to demonize the patch? Watch live on: Black Dragon Biker TV: /blackdragonbikertv Lavish T.

This episode was first shared in 2023, and here's what I had to say about it:You know, in all of the time that we've been doing this show we've never featured a sauna... but that's about to change!Our very first sauna is ACI, which was in San Antonio, Texas. And, showing us around is the subversive queer rapper Chris Conde. Now, Chris was a military brat, and so they moved around a lot when they were a kid. But, as a young adult they decided they wanted some stability, and so chose to settle in San Antonio. And it was here that they let go of religion, got sober, and then came out of the closet... again (?).Oooh, and for those who don't know, saunas, or bathhouse as they are commonly named in America, are places where people go for relaxation and... sex... let's be honest - it's mostly for sex. Anyway, they've kind of fallen out of fashion since the rise of the apps, but they were a huge part of queer (predominately male) culture for decades.

Murmur of Rain is a Gothic-tinged historical romance set in France and Haiti in the 1890s by Patricia Vaughn. Lauren Dufort is the daughter of a descendent of enslaved people in French Guiana and a white Frenchman. Her parents were deeply in love, but their marriage estranged them from society, so when Lauren is orphaned as a teen, she is raised by her paternal aunt, Claude, who runs a gentleman's club, knowing that her mixed-race identity may keep her from ever making a love match in 19th century France. But when handsome Haitian Roget de Martier arrives at Claude's club, Lauren is immediately smitten and he seems to reciprocate interests. There are hints of secrets about his past and family in Haiti, but when the rich gentleman proposes marriage instead of a mistress arrangement, Lauren's head and heart both feel like this is her best chance at happiness.Support us on our Patreon!Visit our website for transcripts and show notes: reformedrakes.comFollow us on social media:Twitter: @reformedrakesInstagram: @reformedrakesBluesky: @reformedrakesBeth's SubstackChels' SubstackEmma's SubstackThank you for listening!

In this episode, my son Jack joins me to examine The Consolation of Philosophy by Boethius, a Roman scholar living just after the fall of the Roman Empire in 476 CE. A renaissance man before the Renaissance, Boethius translated Greek philosophers like Aristotle and Plato, served as a trusted aide to the Gothic king Theodoric in Ravenna, and was a mathematician, astronomer, and family man whose sons became consuls in their early 20s. Despite his Christian faith, tensions with the Arian Theodoric led to his imprisonment and brutal execution at 44. This tragedy tarnished Theodoric's rule, but Boethius' legacy shaped medieval thought, preserving Greek philosophy and influencing giants like Chaucer, Dante, Aquinas, and Shakespeare.Written in a cell awaiting death, The Consolation of Philosophy is a profound dialogue between Boethius and Lady Philosophy. Divided into five books, it blends prose (prosa) and poetry (metrea), offering wisdom through a narrative arc. Book One introduces Boethius' despair; Book Two explores Fortune's fickleness; Book Three seeks the highest Good; Book Four tackles the problem of evil; and Book Five reconciles divine foreknowledge with free will. The poems, rich with mythological and Biblical imagery, provide emotional breaks and reinforce the prose's insights. As C.S. Lewis noted, this work was beloved by educated Europeans for centuries.Boethius weaves Neoplatonism, Stoicism, and Aristotelian ideas into a Christian framework. Lady Philosophy echoes Plato's belief in innate knowledge, urging Boethius to “dream of your origin,” and champions philosopher-kings. Stoic themes emerge as she declares the mind free despite bodily exile, while Aristotle's Unmoved Mover aligns with Boethius' God. The concept of exile as a spiritual crisis resonates, connecting Boethius to figures like Odysseus and Dante.Jack and I discuss whether this is a satire, and how much both of us love Boethius as a character in his own novel.The Ignatius Press edition, translated by Scott Goins and Barbara Wyman, shines with clear prose, excellent footnotes, and quality paper—perfect for annotating. This book demands a reread and sparks a reading list including Chaucer, Milton, and C.S. Lewis' The Discarded Image. Join us! I think this book is for everyone, but even if you think, "Maybe not for me," you'll know what it's about and why it matters.This is a year-long challenge!

Today on Black Dragon Biker TV: Sheriff's Concerns Deny 1%ers in USAAre local law enforcement fears being used to shut down biker events and suppress MC culture in America? That's exactly what happened in Pulaski County, Missouri, where the Mid-Missouri Route 66 Round Up Rally — scheduled for June 20–22 — was abruptly canceled by the national Shriner's organization.Event organizers claim the decision was fueled by sheriff-led fearmongering, jealousy, and sabotage, with 1%er involvement being the unspoken reason for the shutdown. They say the local sheriff stirred unnecessary panic, resulting in the national body pulling support from what was meant to be a peaceful rally. This isn't an isolated incident. Across the country, we're seeing: RICO charges used to break up clubs Raids and seizures of MC property And growing hostility toward riders simply for being affiliated Is the United States heading down the same path as Australia, where laws now ban club members from gathering or wearing their colors in public?In this episode, we explore: The real story behind the Missouri rally cancellation How fear and politics are being used to target clubs The constitutional concerns no one's talking about And what bikers must understand to protect their rights and presence Join Black Dragon, Lavish T. Williams, and Logic as we dig into the facts, ask the hard questions, and examine how biker identity is under siege in the land of the free.

Today on Black Dragon Biker TV: Road Rage: Truck Plows Through Bikers, Shoots 1, Paralyzes 1 What started as a charity ride turned into a nightmare in Clarkson, Kentucky, when a truck driver—impatient with the procession—forced his way through a pack of bikers, triggering a violent and chaotic scene. The driver struck a female biker, dragged her, and left her with life-changing, possibly paralyzing injuries. In the chaos, he shot another biker, who returned fire in self-defense. The driver then fled the scene, leading responding bikers on a 20-mile pursuit before authorities intervened. The incident occurred around noon on Saturday near KY 88 and St. Anthony Church Road, and is now under investigation by Kentucky State Police.

Today on Black Dragon Biker TV: Sin City Deciples: Most Violent Club? Court records and federal indictments are painting a chilling picture of the Sin City Deciples MC—a club some prosecutors are now calling “one of the most violent biker gangs in the country.” Founded as a Black motorcycle club, the Deciples later integrated to include white and Hispanic members, growing to thousands nationwide. Shockingly, one of the club's alleged members was a police chaplain in Gary, Indiana, according to prosecutors. The Chicago Sun-Times recently released a bombshell report exposing the inner workings of the club's leadership, Chicago-area operations, and the sweeping indictments aimed at taking the organization down. With new eyes on the club's activities and structure, questions are being raised about the club's legacy and future. Also in today's episode: the third Outcast MC member connected to the Forest Park shooting has now turned himself in and is scheduled to face a judge on July 9th. In this episode, we discuss: The explosive allegations against the Sin City Deciples MC How the club rose to national prominence and controversy Law enforcement's strategy to dismantle the organization Updates on the Outcast MC case and court proceedings Join Black Dragon, Lavish T. Williams, and Logic as we break down these major headlines, analyze the legal implications, and ask the tough questions no one else will.Please consider sponsoring the channel by signing up for our channel memberships.

In the year 1795, in the secluded Derbyshire town of Barford, a stranger settles into the old White House. He renovates it handsomely, pays every bill on time, and quickly wins the friendship of the local squire and his daughter. Among the hunting gentry, he seems to fit right in. But this is a story of the hunting gentry—and the secrets they don't know, and the things people do when no one is looking. The Squire's Story is a Gothic tale by Elizabeth Gaskell, first published in Household Words in 1853. Known for Cranford and North and South, Gaskell here turns her subtle realism to darker terrain.

This week we are back with the second part of our remix of Angelina and Thomas' podcast series on Harry Potter: Book 1 by J. K. Rowling. This week we are covering chapters 3-7. Angelina opens the book discussion with an overview of the literary motifs used by Rowling in the Harry Potter books to help modern readers better understand these kinds of stories. One of the motifs she highlights is the identity quest and how we see Harry on a journey of the soul. She also shares some thoughts on the fairy tale “magic” of these stories in contrast to actual witchcraft as well as the symbolism used to show us that this is a fairy world. Thomas and Angelina talk about the characters we meet in these chapters, including the symbolism of some of their names. Other ideas discussed in this episode include the importance of alchemy, the Gothic literary tradition, the layers of the quest, the rise of the fantasy genre, and so much more! Visit HouseofHumaneLetters.com for updates on classes with Angelina, Thomas, and other members of their teaching team.
