Tony Hassini is well into his 80's and has earned a time to look back at his illustrious career and all that he has done for entertainment. In the 1970's he developed “The Magic of Burger King” which was a nationwide campaign coupling their advertising with real life characters. But before that, in 1968, Tony formed the International Magicians Society (IMS) which developed into the world's largest magic organization that today presents the Merlin Award to deserving magicians around the world at special, high class award ceremonies. View fullsize View fullsize View fullsize View fullsize View fullsize This conversation was recorded using Zoom prior to the annual Merlin Awards banquet that typically takes place in Las Vegas on the night following MAGIC Live! We first talk about Tony's involvement with creating and developing the Marvelous Magical Burger King ad campaign in the 1970's. During that time, he met Ray Croc, founder of McDonald's, who gave him some good advice. But before the campaign was adopted, Tony created the IMS which, according to the Guinness World Book of Records, is the largest magic organization in the world.

It's a Song of the Week! I am so excited to present to you this brand new music-centered feature on the show. Last year we had a blast (my word) listening to 300 albums and discussing them together. Ever since I have known that we were going to get back to holding space to talk specifically about music on the pod, regularly. And just about a year after we started that massive undertaking, the time is now!! So instead of album after album, we're going to talk about ONE SONG AT A TIME. - This week's SEVENTEENTH installment song is by Artist: Foster The People And is called “Houdini.” It's from their debut studio album Torches. Oh and my bad-I kept saying the song is only about 5 mins long but I was looking at something incorrectly when I said that. It's less than three and a half! WATCH THE VIDEO (as you were invited to do) here: https://youtu.be/_GMQLjzVGfw?s... If you must, listen to the song only on YouTube here: https://youtu.be/Bv5okx42-9g?s... You can also grab a preview on my IG @whereschloe; it's up on the profile. - There is no hierarchy; these songs are going to be in basically a random order, chosen for reasons that I'll most likely expound upon within the episode. Along with an array of background, inspirations, time frame, album order, cultural context, related themes, personal experiences, etc. Any genre artist decade that I would listen to is up for grabs and who's to know what will be next and why? ;) Remember your favorites. Discover something new. One song of the week at a time for however long works. I'm ELATED that you're along for the ride, C

Welcome back to another episode of Denim Wrapped Nightmares, where Berly and LA tackle Supernatural Season 8, Episode 12: "As Time Goes By" - and this one's a real family reunion!What Went Down:The episode kicks off in 1958 with a dapper gentleman in a trench coat saying goodbye to his sleeping son. This mystery man heads to what looks like a secret society meeting, only to find demon Abaddon (possessing the lovely Josie) murdering everyone in sight. Armed with a mysterious box and some blood magic, he creates a portal to escape... and crashes right through Sam and Dean's motel closet in 2013! Plot twist: it's Henry Winchester - John's dad and the boys' grandfather they never knew existed.The Big Reveals:Henry Winchester is alive! Well, he was. John's father didn't abandon his family - he time-traveled to protect a supernatural artifactMen of Letters exist! Think Hogwarts library meets Monster Hunters Anonymous - they're the brains to hunters' brawnAbaddon is terrifying - A Knight of Hell handpicked by Lucifer himself, and she's got style (love that devil-themed t-shirt theft)That box is important - Contains the key to every supernatural object, scroll, and spell ever collected. Talk about your ultimate supernatural storage unit!The Family Drama:Henry learns his "legacy" grandkids are just lowly hunters (the horror!), while Dean gets to process having yet another family member who prioritized "the greater good" over being there for their kid. The apple doesn't fall far from the Winchester tree of abandonment issues.The final showdown features Henry getting gutted (not in the fun way), but managing to trap Abaddon with a devil's trap carved into a bullet before Dean decapitates her. Henry dies, but not before telling the boys he's proud of the men John raised.Memorable Moments:Henry's Houdini handcuff trick that had everyone confusedThe "Mayans were wrong" joke about 2013Dean checking out the comic book store clerk (memorable enough that Abaddon noticed)Henry's magical sleeping powder that worked VERY well on the shop ownerThe coordinates to the "safest place on earth" - next stop on the Winchester world tour!Gore Counter:Relatively tame episode - some bleeding eyes, throat slitting, and Henry's stomach situation, but nothing too splooge-worthy for our hosts' official count.The Setup:The boys now have coordinates to a supernatural safe house that supposedly contains every magical artifact ever collected. Will this be their supernatural Costco? Can they finally help Kevin with those pesky demon tablets? And will they ever call Castiel for backup in these life-or-death situations?The hosts loved Henry's character, Abaddon's fabulous villainy, and the family legacy revelations. A solid episode that adds new layers to Winchester family history while setting up future adventures!"One of you must know John Winchester."

The Pirates dropped a heartbreaker in Baltimore, losing on a crew chief review in extra innings. Jim and Tyler break it all down on tonight's North Shore Nine Postgame Show powered by Primanti Bros. We get into the Pirates' brutal offensive struggles (just 1-for-10 with runners in scoring position), the lack of power throughout the lineup, and how this continues to define their season. But it wasn't all bad—Mike Burrows looked sharp, Braxton Ashcraft showed why he's one of the most exciting young arms in the system, and Isaac Mattson turned in a Houdini act against his former team. Kyle Nicolas also extended his scoreless streak, showing flashes of being a real bullpen weapon. The guys also reflect on what another losing season means for this franchise and why the offensive woes feel so unsustainable moving forward.

At Belleville, Illinois' Haunted Lincoln Theater, some say that's exactly what's happening. Once a glittering landmark for vaudeville and stage magic, the Lincoln Theater hosted legends like Harry Houdini, Ginger Rogers, and The Marx Brothers. But long after the final curtain call, something strange began to happen. Staff and visitors alike began to report eerie sounds, phantom footsteps, cold spots—and full apparitions of long-dead performers. And then came the EVP. A voice, clear and chilling, captured saying just two words: “Time for magic.” Many believe it was Houdini himself, still performing decades after death. In this haunting episode of The Grave Talks, we sit down with renowned paranormal investigator Dale Kaczmarek, who has explored the Lincoln Theater's paranormal activity in depth. He shares real accounts, chilling recordings, and the unnerving energy that still clings to the theater's historic walls. This isn't just another haunted location—it's a living, breathing performance space where the past refuses to take a bow. Dale discusses his encounters with intelligent hauntings, residual energy, and the possibility that the spiritual echo of Houdini still commands attention from beyond the grave. Whether you're a skeptic or a believer, the haunted Lincoln Theater will make you question what it means for a soul to leave the stage… or stay behind, waiting for the lights to rise. Is it history? Or is it still happening? Find out in this spine-tingling exploration of one of America's most haunted theaters.

CLICK HERE! To send us a message! Ask us a Question or just let us know what you think!The mystery of what happened to President Kennedy's body after his assassination stands as one of the most disturbing chapters in American history. In this riveting conclusion to our JFK series, historian Jack Stanley unravels the ghoulish and bewildering events surrounding Kennedy's autopsy that suggest a sophisticated cover-up of the truth.Stanley meticulously details how Kennedy's body apparently traveled in two different caskets—the bronze casket seen by the public and a shipping casket that arrived at Bethesda Naval Hospital via helicopter. Drawing on decades of research and newly released documents, he explains how the autopsy itself was compromised from the start, with evidence suggesting the body was altered before formal procedures began to support the official narrative of shots fired only from behind.The infamous "magic bullet" theory comes under particular scrutiny as Stanley demonstrates its physical impossibility. "Houdini couldn't have done this better," he notes of the bullet that supposedly changed direction multiple times while causing seven wounds between two men. Even more disturbing is his compelling case that Lee Harvey Oswald never fired a shot, but was instead set up as a "patsy" who was conveniently silenced before trial.Perhaps most chilling is the fate of Kennedy's brain and other crucial evidence that mysteriously disappeared, likely dropped into the North Atlantic inside the bronze casket on Robert Kennedy's orders—a final act of protection by a brother determined to preserve JFK's legacy.Stanley connects the assassination to Kennedy's peace initiatives that threatened the military-industrial complex, including his American University speech that Khrushchev had printed in Pravda and the subsequent nuclear test ban treaty. These represented a dramatic shift in Cold War relations that ended abruptly with his death.Ready to dive deeper into history's greatest mysteries?

In this episode of Haunted History Chronicles, I'm joined by Dr Nick Richbell, historian, archivist, and Spiritualist. Together, we discuss the fascinating world of spirit guides: what they are, how mediums have worked with them, and why they became such an important feature of nineteenth- and twentieth-century Spiritualism. We explore famous cases, the rise of the movement, and the controversies surrounding fraud, scepticism, and representation in the Spiritualist press. With Nick's unique perspective as both a historian and a believer, this episode offers a compelling look at Spiritualism's past and what its enduring appeal reveals about society's hopes, fears, and search for life beyond the veil.My Special Guest Is Dr. Nick Richbell  Dr. Nick Richbell received his PhD in History from the University of Waterloo in Ontario, Canada. His area of research is the history of Spiritualism, and his doctoral dissertation is a biographical history about the medium Maurice Barbanell and his guide, Silver Birch. The teachings of Silver Birch are still talked about in Spiritualist churches today, however, Maurice Barbanell's name is rarely mentioned. Barbanell spent 61-years dedicated to Spiritualism and Dr. Richbell's research has started to correct this omission and put's Barbanell back into the historical discourse about him being the twentieth-century's leading propagandist of the religion and movement. Nick is currently finishing writing his book about Maurice Barbanell that will be published in 2026. Nick has long believed that there is more to life than an earthly existence. However, it was not until he started work as the Head of Special Collections and Archives at the University of Waterloo Library that he started to further consider the afterlife. The archives had two séance related collections. The Maines-Pincock Family collection holds records of seances conducted by the American medium William Cartheuser in the private home of Jenny O'Hara Pincock in St. Catharines, Ontario. Another collection, the Thomas Lacey Lecture collection contains over 400 lectures given by Lacey while in trance. Nick was able to bring in a new Lacey collection during his tenure at Waterloo: the Thomas Lacey séance collection: over 100 reel-to-reel tapes from the 1960s of recordings of seances conducted by Lacey in Kitchener, Ontario home. Nick is fascinated by the people in Spiritualism, and he began a journey, that continues today, to learn more about the British-born medium, Thomas Lacey. Nick was the research associate on the audio-documentary, The Ghost of Thomas Lacey, produced by Anthroscope Media. In this conversation, expect insights into: The world of spirit guides—their role in séances, Spiritualist belief, and how they shaped the movement's rise in the 19th and 20th centuries.Unpack the controversies of Spiritualism, from fraud allegations and sceptics like Houdini to debates over race, gender, and representation.If you value this podcast and want to enjoy more episodes please come and find us on⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.patreon.com/Haunted_History_Chronicles⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠to ⁠support the podcast, gain a wealth of additional exclusive podcasts, writing and other content.Links to all Haunted History Chronicles Social Media Pages, Published Materials and more:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://linktr.ee/hauntedhistorychronicles?fbclid=IwAR15rJF2m9nJ0HTXm27HZ3QQ2Llz46E0UpdWv-zePVn9Oj9Q8rdYaZsR74I⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠NEWPodcast Shop:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.teepublic.com/user/haunted-history-chronicles⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Buy Me A Coffee⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://ko-fi.com/hauntedhistorychronicles⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Guest Links⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Email: nick@drspooky.com

The late 1800s to early 1900s, known as magic's Golden Age, featured stars like Harry Houdini, who popularized escape acts and debunked fake spiritualists.

Parental discretion is strongly advised.IN THIS EPISODE: The Hamilton-Byrne family was anything but typical, rather it was a doomsday cult with a leader who believed herself to be the reincarnation of Jesus Christ. (Inside the Family Cult) *** On this date, October 24, 1953, Evelyn Hartley, a 15-year-old sophomore from La Crosse, Wisconsin, vanished without a trace while on her way to a babysitting job. It was like something out of a Halloween urban legend but in this case, the horror was real. (The Babysitter Who Vanished) *** The odd happening that takes place here and there in a house more than likely can be explained in some rational way. Even quite a few strange occurrences could probably be explained by science. But when the events seem to never stop, perhaps it's time to think something else is going on. (An Assortment of Experiences) *** Legend tells a centuries-old curse was placed upon Dudleytown in Connecticut. The town turned into a horrible place where people committed suicide or went insane. (Cursed Dudleytown) *** Exactly 92 years ago today – October 24, 1926 - something went wrong during a performance by Harry Houdini. A week later, he would be dead. (Houdini's Final Performance) *** In the Oakland Cemetery, a bronze monument to tragedy is said to bring death to anyone who touches it. (Black Angel of Death) *** While camping, a man has dreams of a dark-haired woman several nights in a row. Normally it wouldn't be anything to be all that concerned about, but it's something to fear if you are near the French Broad river. (Siren of the French Broad) *** Alien visitors, beings from a different dimension, our planet even had tree monsters and sentient pyramids showing up – and all in the year 1965. (The Inter-Dimensional Interlopers of 1965) *** A retired naval officer reports rocks falling through his home's roof – dozens in a single day – with no explanation of where they came from. (Cappy Ricks and the Stones) *** In 1994 a man has a paranormal experience with a popular song recorded two decades earlier. (The Joker) *** Is there a clandestine space program designed to save the elite from a global catastrophe?
