     Slam The Gavel welcomes back Steven Wade, Family Law Specialist in the United Kingdom to the podcast. Steven Wade was last on the podcast Season 2, Episode 92 and Season 3, Episode 58, where we discussed speaking out on how to counter false allegations and how to succeed.      Steven suggested that when a parent is faced with false allegations is to answer, "It didn't happen, and then move on and talk about why contact is in the best interest of their child." Judges know people lie to them on a regular basis, some judges don't entertain them or they can order a fact-finding hearing/trial. Steven explained how long it can take to get into a hearing or trial.     The power dynamic of who pays for what and the Silver Bullet/false allegations and how things get worse when the criminal side of things into the mix. We also discussed the "Coercive Control Laws," which is a criminal offense in the UK but is also actually 'feeling based.' Not a podcast to be missed.To Reach Steven Wade: familylawassistance.co.uk  and TikTok: @familylawstevenSupportshow(https://www.buymeacoffee.com/maryannpetri)Maryann Petri: dismantlingfamilycourtcorruption.comhttps://www.tiktok.com/@maryannpetriFacebook:  https://www.youtube.com/@slamthegavelpodcasthostmar5536Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/guitarpeace/Pinterest: Slam The Gavel Podcast/@guitarpeaceLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/maryann-petri-62a46b1ab/  YouTube:  https://www.youtube.com/@slamthegavelpodcasthostmar5536  Twitter https://x.com/PetriMaryannEzlegalsuit.com   https://ko-fi.com/maryannpetrihttps://www.zazzle.com/store/slam_the_gavel/about*DISCLAIMER* The use of this information is at the viewer/user's own risk.

S6 E8: Celebrating Helen Hoyt: A Summer Conversation between Sarah and RebeccaIt was a golden afternoon in the heart of summer when we met to celebrate a quiet but powerful voice in American poetry—Helen Hoyt. As sisters and co-hosts of The Book Dialogue, we've often found ourselves drawn to poets who speak across time, whose words seem to reach out and take our hands. Helen Hoyt is one of those voices.Our connection began months earlier on Rebecca's Reading Room, where we recorded a joint recitation of Annunciation—a poem that shimmered with quiet awe and grace. That reading opened a door into Helen's poetic world, one marked by restraint, dignity, and deep interior vision.What followed was something we never expected.Rebecca received a handwritten letter from Helen Hoyt's granddaughter, Lulii Lyman, who had listened to our reading. Enclosed with her note was a rare copy of A Girl in the City, a collection of Hoyt's poems written between 1912 and 1919 during her years in Chicago, and published decades later in 1970. Lulii's words have stayed with us.“Rebecca, I know my Grandmother would love for you to have one of her poetry books. She would also appreciate that you have kept her name and writings alive. Love, Lulii.”That generous act became the seed of a new conversation. On a sunlit day, we gathered again—this time to read Ellis Park, one of the poems from A Girl in the City. It was a deeply personal moment for Rebecca. She was living in Edmonton at the same age Helen was when she wrote this poem, and she found herself walking the same emotional terrain described in the poem. Helen's voice, so clear and interior, mirrored feelings Remember remembered from that time in her life.Our conversation, captured in this latest episode of The Book Dialogue, is not only about poetry—it's about memory, legacy, and the invisible threads that connect us across generations and geography.This post marks the beginning of a new series where we'll continue to explore Helen Hoyt's work. Through her poems, we are reminded that even quiet voices carry forward, shaping lives and lighting paths long after they are written.Stay tuned for more reflections and episodes. We are honoured to walk alongside Helen Hoyt's voice, one poem at a time.Ellis ParkLittle park that I pass through,I carry off a piece of youEvery morning hurrying downTo my work-day in the town;Carry you for country thereTo make the city ways more fair.I take your trees,And your breeze,Your greenness,Your cleanness,Some of your shade, some of your sky,Some of your calm as I go by;Your flowers to trimThe pavements grim;Your space for room in the jostled streetAnd grass for carpet to my feet.Your fountains take and sweet bird callsTo sing me from my office walls.All that I can seeI carry off with me.But you never miss my theft,So much treasure you have left.As I find you, fresh at morning,So I find you, home returning —Nothing lacking from your grace.All your riches wait in placeFor me to borrowOn the morrow.Do you hear this praise of you,Little park that I pass through?Sarah & RebeccaMusic by Epidemic SoundOur New Home By Sleeping Vineshttps://www.epidemicsound.com/track/ReJuTi457q/Smell of Morning Coffee By Franz Gordon https://www.epidemicsound.com/track/f1gXJ8DevC/

Young mother Danielle Vaughan knew her children were being abused in the home of her mother, Sherry Connor. She spent years pleading for someone to intervene before it was too late. No one listened, and Danielle's worst nightmare became reality when her five-year-old son, Dennis “Boo” Vaughan Jr., was pronounced dead on Christmas Eve, 2019.Boo's body told a story of severe and prolonged suffering, and an autopsy revealed that Boo had been savagely beaten, ultimately dying from blunt force trauma to the head and neck. Even though it was painfully obvious what had happened, nearly five years passed without anyone being held accountable.This is the story of young siblings who were failed by the system at every turn, and whose mother's cries for help went ignored. This is part two of the heartbreaking story of Dennis “Boo” Vaughan Jr.Justice for Dennis “Boo” Vaughan Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/profile/100090309441118/ Photos related to today's episode can be viewed on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/sufferthelittlechildrenpod You can also follow the podcast on:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/sufferthelittlechildrenpodTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@STLCpodMy Linktree is available here: https://linktr.ee/stlcpod Visit the podcast's web page at https://www.sufferthelittlechildrenpod.com. By supporting me on Patreon, you'll also access rewards, including a shout-out by name on the podcast and exclusive rewards.

WBZ NewsRadio's James Rojas reports.

What happens when a group of grieving grandmothers takes on a brutal dictatorship in the name of truth and justice? In today's episode, we speak with award-winning journalist and author Haley Cohen Gilliland about her extraordinary new book, A Flower Traveled In My Blood. Through deep research and personal storytelling, the book chronicles the decades-long fight of the Grandmothers of the Plaza de Mayo to uncover the fates of their stolen grandchildren—taken during Argentina's Dirty War and raised under false identities. This is a conversation about resilience, memory, science, justice—and the power of ordinary people to defy tyranny.

We are in the Emerald Isle and Ireland seems to be winning the very competitive race to be nominated the most anti-semitic country in Europe. It's not even safe to go to an Irish pub or get a bus without being attacked for being Jewish. We bring you the video of the latest attack. And as anti-semitism runs riot, what does the parliament focus on -  trying to get a law passed that singles out jews for economic boycott in Europe, for the first time since the Nazis. Watch our show to find out how.With the increase of anti-semitism and victim-blaming of Israel around the world, we are determined to bring our play OCTOBER 7: IN THEIR WORDS, everywhere we can. Please go to October7theplay.com (linked below) and give what you can. And we interviewed Dr. Joe Rigney about his latest book THE SIN OF EMPATHY. Watch this week's episode to find out just how destructive it is to “help” someone without tethering yourself to a biblical rationale. And Abuela Smollett - how one enterprising Grandmother used liberal hysteria over immigration raids to fraudulently raise a nice sum of money. We bring you every hilarious detail on how the great escape led to the great capture.And a feature I have been noticing recently - how the leftist media have been using problem/advice pages to push a leftist agenda. They never sleep and neither should we. Watch how Dear Abby's Irish equivalent just becomes Dear Liberal.And we had an enormous response to last week's show which featured the Federal Trade Commission workshop on the evils and illegality of the Transgender movement.

Grandmothers are not only a great source of wisdom and traditional knowledge, they also play a nurturing and vital role in our lives.This week's episode of Sistas, Let's Talk is a repeat of the show broadcast on 6th February 2025

In a somewhat unconventional episode this week, we tackle some of David Lynch's early short films. Specifically, his early works Six Figures Getting Sick (Six Times); The Alphabet; The Grandmother; The Amputee; The Cowboy and the Frenchman; and Lumiere, or Premonitions Following an Evil Deed.In this brisk, energetic episode, we debate the value of these early works and their influence on things we would see in his later films. Also featuring a Patron-only spot where we discuss James Gunn's latest treatment of SUPERMAN, this is a breezy and laugh-filled episode this week that we really hope you enjoy.Patron Only Segment: Superman (2025)4:29 - The Short Films of David LynchSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

It only felt right to dedicate another episode to David Lynch. In February, I put out an episode documenting a Lynch marathon that I co-organized, but that wasn't enough Lynch in my book, and so I approached two bonafide Lynch experts with the goal of having a more in-depth conversation about the filmmaker. Bill Ackerman is a film writer and the host of the fantastic ⁠Supporting Characters⁠ podcast as well as a special podcast dedicated to Blue Velvet called ⁠From the Neighborhood⁠. He's undoubtedly one of the best film podcasters full stop end of story. Courtenay Stallings is a film historian, the editor of the Twin Peaks themed Blue Rose Magazine and is also the author of Laura's Ghost: Women Speak about Twin Peaks. Her dedication to spotlighting Lynch and her access to Lynch's world is astounding. We discuss Lynch's persona, his career throughout the years, the importance of Laura Palmer, the life changing powers of Blue Velvet, and a lot more.Show Notes:Bill Ackerman's Podcast Supporting CharactersFrom the Neighboorhood – Blue Velvet PodcastSupporting Characters InstagramCourteney Stallings InstagramLaura's Ghost: Women Speak About Twin PeaksBlue Rose MagazineDavid Lynch's Unrealized ProjectsFestival of DisruptionRoom to DreamMark FrostMulholland Drive (2001)Brian De PalmaKimmy RobertsonSabrina SutherlandThe Shrouds (2024)Hotel Room (1993)Lumiere and Company – David LynchVideo WatchdogInland Empire (2006)David Lynch Keeps His Head – David Foster WallaceThe Sixth Sense (1999)The Straight Story (1999)Atom EgoyanDuran Duran: UnstagedAngelo BadalamentiThe Secret Diary of Laura PalmerPeggy ReaveyThe Alphabet (1969)The Grandmother (1970)Six Men Getting Sick (1967)Dino De Laurentiis Dune (1984)David Lynch & Mel BrooksAlejandro JodorowskyWerner HerzogBody Heat (1981)Blood Simple (1984)Crispin GloverBlue Velvet (1986)Wild At Heart (1990)Eraserhead (1977)Twin Peaks: Fire Walk With Me (1992)Cult Movies: v.3Cut!

They were ultimately placed in the Laconia, New Hampshire, home of their maternal grandmother, Sherry Connor. Their mother, Danielle Vaughan, had experienced her mother's abuse firsthand and knew Sherry was mistreating and abusing her children. Over the next two years, DCYF received at least 27 reports of child abuse and neglect against the Vaughan children. Despite these warnings from Danielle and several others, including mandatory reporters, DCYF continually overlooked the increasingly egregious and shocking ways Sherry treated her grandchildren. Only after Sherry accidentally sent Danielle audio of one abusive incident did DCYF act, and it was nowhere near enough.This is part one of the heartbreaking story of Dennis “Boo” Vaughan, Jr.Justice for Dennis “Boo” Vaughan Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/profile/100090309441118/ Photos related to today's episode can be viewed on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/sufferthelittlechildrenpod You can also follow the podcast on:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/sufferthelittlechildrenpodTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@STLCpodMy Linktree is available here: https://linktr.ee/stlcpod Visit the podcast's web page at https://www.sufferthelittlechildrenpod.com. By supporting me on Patreon, you'll also access rewards, including a shout-out by name on the podcast and exclusive rewards.

The episode then covers Alice's later years as a grandmother, including her family's moves to California and Colorado, and her helpful nature with her grandchildren. Finally, Nicole and Diana talk about Alice's death in 1957 and list her children: Bert Cecil Harris, Ettie Belle Harris, and two boys who died in childhood.

Episode 567 - Mali Bain and Shayna Lee - Next Gen Story - Preserve your family stories for generations to comeNextGen Story is about helping families capture the stories of their loved ones.My name is Mali, the founder of NextGen Story. I am a former high school teacher with a background working in university, non-profit, and philanthropic settings. I'm a family historian, facilitator, and certified Guided Autobiography instructor. I hold a B.A. (UBC), B.Ed. (SFU), and an M.A. in Adult Learning and Education (UBC). I'm also the author of Our Homes on Indigenous Lands: Stories of My Ancestors Across Turtle Island.This work began when I helped my grandmother publish her memoirs. She had typewritten stories and old albums of photos. I worked with her to type, scan, organize, edit, design, and eventually publish a family history book. She was so proud of her book, and it has meant so much to our family.I've always dreamed that I could help other families publish their own family history books. Thanks to the team of talented writers, editors, and designers at NextGen Story, we have helped dozens of families complete their book for friends, family, and beyond. Check out our books to see some examples.Without NextGen Story our family's precious book would not have been made. Mali's keen eye for detail and her sense of the overall picture brought our Grandmother's memories together to form a beautiful, fascinating, and meaningful arc. Not only did this project create an absolute treasure of a book, but the process also allowed many of us grandchildren to spend time connecting with Grandma through photos, writings, and conversations as we helped curate and edit. Mali was organized and professional yet completely sensitive to our family's feelings and priorities throughout.Sam, NextGen Story Clienthttps://www.nextgenstory.com/Support the show___https://livingthenextchapter.com/podcast produced by: https://truemediasolutions.ca/Coffee Refills are always appreciated, refill Dave's cup here, and thanks!https://buymeacoffee.com/truemediaca

In the early hours of March 24, 1976, the streets of Buenos Aires rumble with tanks as soldiers seize the presidential palace and topple Argentina's leader. The country is now under the control of a military junta, with army chief Jorge Rafael Videla at the helm. With quiet support from the United States and tacit approval from much of Argentina's people, who are tired of constant bombings and gunfights, the junta swiftly launches the National Reorganization Process or El Proceso—a bland name masking their ruthless campaign to crush the political left and instill the country with “Western, Christian” values. The junta holds power until 1983 and decimates a generation. One of the military's most diabolical acts is kidnapping hundreds of pregnant women. After giving birth in captivity, the women are “disappeared,” and their babies secretly given to other families—many of them headed by police or military officers. For mothers of pregnant daughters and daughters-in-law, the source of their grief is twofold—the disappearances of their children, and the theft of their grandchildren. A group of fierce grandmothers forms the Abuelas de Plaza de Mayo, dedicated to finding the stolen infants and seeking justice from a nation that betrayed them. At a time when speaking out could mean death, the Abuelas confront military officers and launch protests to reach international diplomats and journalists. They become detectives, adopting disguises to observe suspected grandchildren, and even work alongside a renowned American scientist to pioneer groundbreaking genetic tests. A Flower Traveled in My Blood: The Incredible True Story of the Grandmothers Who Fought to Find a Stolen Generation of Children (Simon & Schuster, 2025) by Haley Cohen Gilliland is the rarest of nonfiction that reads like a novel and puts your heart in your throat. It is the product of years of extensive archival research and meticulous, original reporting. It marks the arrival of a blazing new talent in narrative journalism. In these pages, a regime tries to terrorize a country, but love prevails. The grandmothers' stunning stories reveal new truths about memory, identity, and family. This interview was conducted by Dr. Miranda Melcher whose book focuses on post-conflict military integration, understanding treaty negotiation and implementation in civil war contexts, with qualitative analysis of the Angolan and Mozambican civil wars.

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

In the early hours of March 24, 1976, the streets of Buenos Aires rumble with tanks as soldiers seize the presidential palace and topple Argentina's leader. The country is now under the control of a military junta, with army chief Jorge Rafael Videla at the helm. With quiet support from the United States and tacit approval from much of Argentina's people, who are tired of constant bombings and gunfights, the junta swiftly launches the National Reorganization Process or El Proceso—a bland name masking their ruthless campaign to crush the political left and instill the country with “Western, Christian” values. The junta holds power until 1983 and decimates a generation. One of the military's most diabolical acts is kidnapping hundreds of pregnant women. After giving birth in captivity, the women are “disappeared,” and their babies secretly given to other families—many of them headed by police or military officers. For mothers of pregnant daughters and daughters-in-law, the source of their grief is twofold—the disappearances of their children, and the theft of their grandchildren. A group of fierce grandmothers forms the Abuelas de Plaza de Mayo, dedicated to finding the stolen infants and seeking justice from a nation that betrayed them. At a time when speaking out could mean death, the Abuelas confront military officers and launch protests to reach international diplomats and journalists. They become detectives, adopting disguises to observe suspected grandchildren, and even work alongside a renowned American scientist to pioneer groundbreaking genetic tests. A Flower Traveled in My Blood: The Incredible True Story of the Grandmothers Who Fought to Find a Stolen Generation of Children (Simon & Schuster, 2025) by Haley Cohen Gilliland is the rarest of nonfiction that reads like a novel and puts your heart in your throat. It is the product of years of extensive archival research and meticulous, original reporting. It marks the arrival of a blazing new talent in narrative journalism. In these pages, a regime tries to terrorize a country, but love prevails. The grandmothers' stunning stories reveal new truths about memory, identity, and family. This interview was conducted by Dr. Miranda Melcher whose book focuses on post-conflict military integration, understanding treaty negotiation and implementation in civil war contexts, with qualitative analysis of the Angolan and Mozambican civil wars.

I'm a wife of 49 years, mother of two adult children, and Grammy to two wonderful girls.  I've worked for my company for 45 years and plan to retire within the next two years.  I love to walk, hike, travel, read and be as active and healthy as possible. I never had to worry about my weight until my early 30s.  I was the skinny kid.  My dad always told me I had toothpick legs. I could eat anything and everything without gaining weight.  When I got married at the age of 22, I weighed 122 pounds, which was the highest weight I'd ever achieved.  When I got pregnant with my daughter eight years later, I weighed 127 lbs.  I gained 22 lbs. during my pregnancy and lost it in a short amount of time.  As I entered my 30s, weight suddenly became an issue, and within about five years, I'd gained up to 160 pounds.  I joined Weight Watchers at work group and got down to 125 lbs., and looked gaunt and unhealthy.  But as is often the case, WW was not sustainable.  And I got back up to where I was when I originally joined WW.I then tried so many other "diets" and landed around 140 lbs.  In 2021, I had a total knee replacement and gained 15 lbs. due to inactivity and comfort eating.  I tried WW again, lost 5 lbs. and then the scale wouldn't budge any further.  My daughter had suggested IF, but the word "fasting" was frightening to me.  Finally, I was so desperate that I said I'd give it a try.  January 26, 2022, was the day I started IF, and I will never live my life any differently.  I lost the other 10 lbs. plus another 15 and have settled into an IF lifestyle.To join the Patreon Community.

In 1982, Argentine geneticist Victor Penchaszadeh was living in exile in New York when he received a call that would change the course of his career. Two founding members of the campaign group, the Grandmothers of the Plaza de Mayo, were asking for his help to find their kidnapped grandchildren. Between 1976 and 1983, Argentina was under military rule. During this period, thousands of mainly young, left-wing people were forcibly disappeared - taken to clandestine detention centres, where many were tortured and killed. Hundreds of babies were born in captivity. Their mothers were later murdered, and the children were often given to families with ties to the regime - and never told their true identities. The Grandmothers travelled the world, desperately asking scientists one question: Without the presence of the parents, could their blood be used to identify their lost grandchildren? Dr Penchaszadeh was the first to say yes. He tells Vicky Farncombe how that answer led to the creation of the world's first national genetic data bank—and the eventual reunion of 140 grandchildren with their real families.Eye-witness accounts brought to life by archive.

Grandmother Called in a BigfootMany moons ago, on the Glover River in McCurtain County, Oklahoma, my grandparents were at a fishing spot they called the Big Hole. They were busy catfishing when they heard a yell from up the river. For the fun of it, my grandma decided to mimic the sound and yelled right back. Not long after, they heard a huge splashing from up the river coming toward them, as if a large animal was quickly approaching. As the splashing sound got closer, they started feeling uneasy and decided to pack up and leave. My grandma went ahead to the truck to start it up so they could get out faster, and heard some leaves rustling in the woods next to her. She rejoined my grandpa to help with the packing, and once they got everything loaded up, they saw a huge shadow in the trees. They didn't wait around to find out what it was and got out of dodge. She's told me this story many times throughout my life, and I've always figured it was Bigfoot. But I never paid any mind to what the yell could have been until this weekend, when I visited them, and played the Ohio howl recording. I had gotten her attention, and she called my grandpa over so he could hear it, too. My grandparents both said it was just like the sound they heard that day they were fishing at the Big Hole. Little did they know at the time, they had a near encounter with Bigfoot.Join my Supporters Club for $4.99 per month for exclusive stories:https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/what-if-it-s-true-podcast--5445587/support

Episode 561 - Joesph Bolton - Old Grandmother's Tree - Celebrating Cultures and History through FolktalesAbout the AuthorJoseph Bolton was born in Pawtucket, Rhode Island during the twilight of the golden age of French-Canadian culture in New England. Growing up emersed in his mother's French-Canadian family, Joseph enjoyed hearing the stories told by his grandparents and great aunts of a mysterious and magical place called Québec, otherwise known as “the place we came from.”After high school, Joseph's adventurous nature led him to enlist in the U.S. Army and he served in the Army's airborne forces as a paratrooper jumping out of perfectly good airplanes, much to the worry of his mother.Since he retired from the Army, Joseph has worked in various project manager roles as a civilian contractor for the U.S. Air Force. While writing Old Grandmother's Tree, Joseph took a sabbatical from the U.S. Air Force and taught mathematics to young students for a semester at Holy Family Academy in Gardner Massachusetts.Bolton is of French-Canadian, Native American, Spanish, English, and Irish descent, and is profoundly inspired by the stories of his heritage. He lives with his wife in Massachusetts, and, in his free time, enjoys hiking and skiing through Québec and New England landscapes. His favorite places to go for outdoor adventure are the Berkshire Mountains of Massachusetts and Mont-Orford in Québec. When he is not writing, hiking, or skiing, Joseph enjoys reading about science, history, philosophy, mathematics, and worldwide mythologies. Old Grandmother's Tree is his first book.Meet the IllustratorAbout Natasha Pelley-SmithNatasha Pelley-Smith, born in Toronto, is a seasoned professional artist who graduated from the prestigious Écohlcité fine arts academy in France, in 2017—now integrated into Émile Chol of Lyon.

During a family reunion many years ago, my mother shared some words she’d written. She honored her grandmother, a woman I’d never met but had heard her spoken of often. Mom wrote that she recalled Mama Susan getting up “before dawn” and praying over her household. What a distinct memory that impacted my mother’s life—one I cling to even today although I never met my great-grandmother. This description reminds me of the woman described in Proverbs 31. She cared for her family in many tangible ways, and she got up “while it [was] still night” (v. 15). She had plenty to do to care for her family, such as providing food, purchasing land, planting a vineyard, making profitable trades, sewing clothes, and finishing many other tasks—all in the name of caring for the ones she loved. And she even extended her resourcefulness to “the poor and . . . the needy” (v. 20). Helping to care for a household during the time of the writing of Proverbs 31 was no easy feat, as demonstrated from the long list of duties described in this passage. And it wasn’t an easy feat for my great-grandmother, who was born in the 1800s. But prayers whispered early in the morning—as well as throughout the day—kept these women focused and encouraged as God helped them live out their calling to care for their family and others.

Grandmother's house is supposed to be a place of warmth and comfort, but in this episode, we explore a family home that holds more than just memories. Strange occurrences begin after Gramma passes—seashells move by themselves, doors close on their own, and the unmistakable scent of her perfume lingers in the air. At first, the family believes it's Gramma watching over them, but as the activity escalates, they start to question whether it's her at all. Could there be other spirits lurking in the house, or is Gramma's spirit not as benevolent as they first thought? This episode uncovers the layers of a family haunting that goes deeper than anyone realized.
