Deb Davis shares Wednesday's devotional podcast from Bible Fellowship Church. 

Tom was born and raised in New Jersey. He grew up in the town of Howell, where he attended the Fine and Performing Arts Center at Howell High School. Upon graduation, he attended Mason Gross School of the Arts at Rutgers University (obtaining a BFA in acting), where he also had the opportunity to study Shakespeare at the Globe Theatre in London, England. Tom's first professional job was on the long-running CBS daytime show Guiding Light. During the two and a half years he was on the show, he was nominated for four consecutive Daytime Emmy Awards, winning twice (in 2006 and 2008). Having worked in theater, television, and independent film, he eventually became a series regular on the hit Cinemax show Banshee, playing former neo-Nazi Kurt Bunker. Tom is a founding member and the current Artistic Director of the Apothecary Theatre Company—a NYC-based non-profit that develops and produces world premieres of new plays by up-and-coming playwrights. He made his Broadway debut in 2012 as Judy Garland's last husband, Mickey Deans, in the critically acclaimed End of the Rainbow, directed by Tony Award Winner Terry Johnson. Since his breakout in Ozark and David Fincher's Mank, he has gone on to star in Outer Range, Love and Death, She Said, and HBO's Task. Considering that this interview was done via Zoom (a TOA first), as a means of moving forward in spite of the COVID-19 pandemic, it is befitting that this episode of That One Audition retells the stories of adaptation and triumph that landed Tom Pelphrey right here.

Dondré Whitfield is an actor best known for his roles in Guiding Light, Queen Sugar, and The Game, and the author of Male vs. Man (a book about what it actually means to be a man in the context of family, fatherhood, and love). In this conversation, he traces the origin of his infidelity not to a moment of weakness but to a moment of watching his father lust after other women in plain sight (that was the day, he says, the cheater in him was born — not because he wanted to be that man, but because he didn't yet know he had a choice). What follows is one of the most specific and honest conversations we've had on this show about what it looks like when a man finally decides to understand himself and then builds an entire framework so his children don't have to start from zero. His concept, "we date as a family" (where the whole family meets not just the person a child is dating but their father too, so everyone can help scaffold the relationship toward something healthy), is practical, radical, and worth hearing in full.

On today's show: A Correction: cat hair was found in diabetes drugs, not vaccines. Novo Nordisk's $16.5 billion acquisition Catalent — FDA contamination at the Indiana facility.Your host Crystal is a former clinical trials manager who read a Form 990 recreationally, and it ruined her life. Today we're doing a forensic accounting of nothing.THE MORGELLONS RESEARCH FOUNDATION IRS FILINGSThe Morgellons Research Foundation (MRF), "founded" by Mary Leitao, filed IRS Form 990 returns showing zero program service expenses. Not low. Zero.2004 Form 990: $318 in contributions. $0 expenses.2005 Form 990: $0 program expenses.2006 Form 990: Missing. This is the peak year — national TV, maximum donations, phones ringing. That return has never been located. Revenue reported retroactively: ~$29,000.MRF's sole named grant recipient was Thornton/Thorstensen Labs. Operator Michael Carlson was later indicted on 51 counts of falsifying test results. The lab was already decertified by the time the grant was granted. The MRF patient registry — real people, real names — has never been accounted for. No response to date from 2.23.26 open records request to OHSU.THE DOMAINmorgellons.org was registered March 14, 2002 by dkornsin@hotmail.com — not Mary Leitao, not any board member. That registrant possibly links to 2345.com, Chinese software infrastructure. Earliest site capture (June 5, 2002) lists a California fax number, contact morgellons@aol.com, and web designer Amy DiFerrari.DOUGLAS EWING BUCKNER SR —Fake DOCTORDouglas Buckner is listed as Vice President of the MRF board and identified as “Dr. Douglas Buckner PhD” on federal tax documents, in the Washington Post Magazine, and on Coast to Coast AM (February 2005). He is not a doctor. No MD. No PhD. No dissertation, residency, license, or verifiable work history. Born July 1946, Tennessee. Lived in Waycross, Georgia 35 years. Now on his father's land in Montgomery County, Tennessee. Bankruptcy filing, tax lien on record. His wife Janelle Fossen is the MRF board secretary. Two board seats, one household.On the 2005 Coast to Coast broadcast, host George Noory calls him a physician and Doctor repeatedly. Buckner never corrects him. He describes Morgellons symptoms accurately but frames the fibers as visually bizarre. They're not — they look like common textile fibers. The actual anomaly is fibers embedded under intact skin and emerging from wounds. The paranormal framing is intentionally discrediting perhaps, guilty as charged. KENNETH COWLES — DIED IN HIS SLEEP AT 53Kenneth Cowles served as MRF Director of PR and Media, unpaid. Day job: production assistant on Guiding Light. He says he found Morgellons by sending a mass email looking for a story and hearing back from a woman in Tacoma, Washington. Didn't believe her at first. Eventually did. That led him to Mary Leitao.From a soap opera set, Cowles placed Morgellons on KTVU Fox San Francisco, stations in Reno and Houston, and in 2006 on ABC News prime time and NBC. Correction: the rumored $10,000 plane ticket to Tulsa and $2,000 phone bill were Kenneth Cowles, not Dale Cowler.Kenneth Cowles died October 2007, age 53. “Peacefully in his sleep,” per Mary Leitao. Forty-eight days after Charles E. Holman, former MRF chairman, died at 54. Holman had asked Mary for access to the financial statements and was refused. Mary's husband Edward Leitao died at 54 of cardiac arrest months before she incorporated the MRF. Three men connected to this foundation. All dead in their 50s. Nobody wrote about it.MRF BOARD: William T.

In episode 1189, Daytime Confidential marks Season 19 with a special Reflections episode featuring Melodie Aikels.  Melodie Aikels looks back on how she went from a teenage listener on a Guiding Light message board to a core member of the Daytime Confidential team. She talks about discovering the podcast in high school, setting iTunes alerts so she would never miss an episode, and what it felt like to be "the baby" among a group of veteran soap fans and journalists. She remembers breaking Guiding Light's cancellation story, covering So Long Springfield events, and how a last minute call from Jamey Giddens led to her very first flight: a Guiding Light media trip to Universal Studios that threw her into the deep end of the soap press pool. From red carpets and Emmys to Performer of the Week "checkboxes," Melodie explains how she found her voice as a critic while still fangirling over icons like Melody Thomas Scott, Eric Braeden and Lawrence Saint-Victor. Melodie also digs into how the genre has changed over the past 19 seasons: the loss of the New York soaps and the Broadway pipeline, the shift from slow burn storytelling to fast, condensed arcs, and the frustration of "telling not showing." She shares why Beyond the Gates gives her hope, why she will always defend Nikki Newman, and what it means to literally grow up on a podcast while the soap world reshapes itself around you. 00:00 – From Listener to "the Baby" of the Podcast Melodie remembers discovering Daytime Confidential in high school, listening on the way to and from school, and falling in love with the rants and top fives. 06:00 – Message Boards, Early Podcasts and Becoming DC Family Old school SoapNet and TWoP message boards, Luke and Lisa's early days, Jamey debuting as "Jay," and how different ages and perspectives shaped the show. 12:00 – Guiding Light, Mel's Guiding Gossip and Breaking a Cancellation Running a Guiding Light board, launching Mel's Guiding Gossip, and how a connection through Nikki led to writing for Daytime Confidential and later breaking the GL cancellation story. 18:00 – First Flight, Universal Studios and So Long Springfield Jamey's call that sent Mel on her first ever plane trip, Guiding Light's media shoot at Universal, meeting other soap press, and covering the So Long Springfield events with Mike. 24:00 – Red Carpets, Emmys and Seeing Legends Up Close Why red carpets feel like a circus, building rapport with actors, and the surreal experience of interviewing people she grew up watching, from Melody Thomas Scott to Eric Braeden and Lawrence Saint-Victor. 31:00 – Top Fives, Checkboxes and DC's Running Jokes Favorite top five episodes, Performer of the Week "checkbox" hall of fame, awkward Guiding Light moments, and the inside jokes that became part of DC's language. 39:00 – How Soaps Have Changed: Speed, New York and Lost Pipelines The last great era of mid-2000s soaps, losing the New York shows, what the Broadway pipeline meant for performance, and how faster pacing has cost the genre key emotional beats. 49:00 – Beyond the Gates, Bread and Butter Actors and Soap Optimism Why Beyond the Gates makes her hopeful, the importance of a predominantly Black cast, and the renewed focus on veterans like Jane Elliott, Susan Seaforth Hayes and Melody Thomas Scott. 56:00 – Rewrites, "Tell, Not Show" and What Still Drives Her Crazy The problems with rewriting on-screen history, off-screen "tell" instead of "show," and why the genre has to get smarter about how it uses limited time and budgets. 1:04:00 – Growing Up on the Podcast and Meeting DC Listeners Melodie reflects on literally growing up on DC, building real friendships online, being recognized by voice at plays and fan events, and why she still finds joy in doing the work. All this and more on the latest Daytime Confidential podcast! Bluesky: @DCConfidential, LukeKerr, JillianBowe, Josh Baldwin, and Melodie Aikels.

For this Daytime Confidential Reflections special, episode 1188, Luke Kerr sits down with longtime Daytime Confidential contributor J. Bernard Jones for a straight shot of soap history, fandom and survival. J. Bernard opens up about the stroke he suffered in May and how laughing at the occasional scrambled word has helped him keep moving forward. J. Bernard remembers how he first found Daytime Confidential through the blog and became "a pure a-hole" in the comments before Jamey Giddens recruited him to write. He talks about launching J.F.Y., a glossy magazine for Black gay men that briefly thrived before collapsing with the ad market in the mid 2000s. J. Bernard traces his soap roots to watching The Edge of Night with his mother, the bombed honeymoon that hooked him, and how that led to a lifelong obsession with Procter & Gamble soaps, Santa Barbara and Guiding Light. He and Luke compare the old magazine wars and AOL chat rooms to today's forums tab on Google and social platforms. The conversation turns to Beyond the Gates and General Hospital, where they break down pacing problems, the weight of Ashley and Derek, the power dynamics in Martin and Smitty's relationship and whether the Drew shooting landed at the right time. Through it all, J. Bernard keeps one eye on corporate consolidation and one eye on the genre's future, arguing soaps still matter if the industry treats them like they do.
