On the sixty-fifth episode of the Cinematic Odyssey, Tristen and Max delve into their second David Lynch film, 1997's Lost Highway, in honor of the great writer-director's passing in January. Tristen recounts the creepiest thing he's seen in the movie, Max tries to one-up him with creepier options, and they both offer their opinions on reality, the state of dreams and the supernatural, and Gary Busey. 

We hope you're ready for a spookin'!

Donald Trump's second presidential term is less than a week old and everything already seems to be coming undone. American democracy might be at a breaking point. How did the far-right militia groups like the Proud Boys and Oath Keepers gain influence with the help of government allies, posing a grave threat to national stability? Author and journalist David Neiwert joins the pod, and provides expert insight into the radical right's impact on our democratic experiment. The controversial pardoning of January 6th insurrectionists signals a disturbing breakdown of the rule of law, potentially paving the way for authoritarianism. As we all grapple with widespread radicalization across the nation, we discuss the historical connections between American elements of fascism, focusing on how these ideologies have been fanned into flames by Trump's rise, and how emboldened far-right militia groups might be America's undoing.Recommended:The Age of Insurrection: The Radical Right's Assault on American DemocracyAlt-America: The Rise of the Radical Right in the Age of Trump-------------------------Follow Deep Dive:BlueskyYouTube Email: deepdivewithshawn@gmail.com Music: Majestic Earth - Joystock

Shari Franke's memoir, The House of My Mother: A Daughter's Quest for Freedom, begins with a striking and unforgettable image: the moment police forced open the front door of her family's home with a battering ram. Shari, the eldest daughter of the once-popular family vloggers behind the 8 Passengers YouTube channel, captured the moment on her phone and shared it on Instagram, writing, “This moment, this climax of my family's descent into madness, needed to be documented, preserved, and shared on social media.” It was an act of reclamation—an attempt to wrest back control of her narrative from a life shaped by forced smiles and staged perfection. Today, with the release of her memoir through Gallery Books, Shari pulls back the curtain on the tabloid nightmare her family became. Ruby Franke, Shari's mother and the matriarch of the 8 Passengers channel, was arrested in 2023 along with her business partner, Jodi Hildebrandt. The two women were charged with multiple counts of aggravated child abuse after Shari's younger brother escaped from Hildebrandt's home and begged a neighbor for help. The boy, visibly malnourished and injured, revealed a harrowing story of being tied up with ropes and deprived of food. Inside Hildebrandt's home, police discovered Shari's younger sister in a similarly emaciated and injured state. The public's collective gasp over these revelations was only the beginning. In The House of My Mother, Shari details how the Franke family's carefully curated image of wholesomeness and faith unraveled behind the scenes, exposing the dark underbelly of a household where control, manipulation, and emotional abuse reigned. Before the arrests, the Frankes had amassed nearly 2.5 million subscribers on YouTube, drawn to their idyllic portrayal of life as a large Mormon family. But Shari's memoir reveals a far different reality. The transformation, she writes, began when Hildebrandt, a counselor with controversial methods, entered their lives. Hildebrandt's influence over Ruby grew rapidly, shifting the family dynamics in alarming ways. “She was our family's very own cult leader,” Shari writes. “She turned my mother into a fawning, starstruck acolyte who lapped up her every demented word like it was holy water.” Kevin Franke, Ruby's husband and Shari's father, was gradually pushed out of the household. According to Shari, Hildebrandt became the puppet master, dictating the family's every move under the guise of therapy and spiritual guidance. In a particularly disturbing episode, Hildebrandt took over Shari's bedroom, filling it with candles and massage oils. Shari's suspicions about a deeper relationship between her mother and Hildebrandt were confirmed one night when she saw Ruby sneaking out of her former room. “It was equal parts fascinating and horrific,” Shari recalls. “Two women who publicly condemned queerness in their ConneXions Classroom videos, while embodying it privately.” Hildebrandt's teachings, presented as strict moral guidelines, included extreme punishments and bizarre rituals. Shari writes that these teachings justified the alienation of Kevin, who was sent away to “work on his shortcomings” while the children's welfare deteriorated. The memoir's most heart-wrenching moments recount Shari's growing concern for her siblings. Isolated from her family while attending Brigham Young University, Shari made repeated calls to the Department of Child and Family Services, desperate to have someone intervene. But it wasn't until her brother's dramatic escape that authorities finally acted. Ruby and Hildebrandt's subsequent arrest and guilty pleas to four counts of aggravated child abuse brought an end to their reign of terror. Each woman was sentenced to four to thirty years in prison—a grim chapter in a story that continues to haunt the public consciousness. Shari, now 21, has emerged as an advocate against the exploitation of children in family vlogging. Her experiences growing up in front of a camera have shaped her into a vocal critic of the practice, which she believes inherently violates children's privacy and well-being. In her memoir and public statements, Shari argues there is no ethical way to monetize a child's life online. “Making money off your kids with no oversight as to how much the kids are getting paid—there's no way to do that well,” she asserts. Shari has taken her advocacy to the legislative level, supporting bills that protect underage influencers by guaranteeing them a share of their earnings. “It should be 100 percent,” she insists, though she adds that even financial compensation cannot undo the psychological damage inflicted by growing up with one's life broadcast to millions. The memoir also sheds light on Shari's personal struggles, from suicidal ideation to a damaging relationship with a married church elder. She writes candidly about feeling unloved as a child and grappling with the immense pressure to perform for the camera. Her journals and old family vlogs, which she reviewed while writing the book, offer a painful juxtaposition: moments of apparent happiness on screen contrasted with behind-the-scenes misery. “It felt like it wasn't my life,” Shari reflects. “The vlogs show smiling faces, but all I remember is the yelling between takes.” Shari's relationship with her father has begun to heal in the wake of the arrests. Kevin Franke, who describes his “invitation to leave” the family as “a hellish and abusive experience,” has acknowledged his role in the family's exploitation. Shari appreciates his willingness to take responsibility, even as she remains critical of his past inaction. Her relationship with Ruby, however, is irreparable. In a letter sent from prison, Ruby reminisced about Shari's childhood but failed to address the abuse. Shari's response was resolute: “I don't feel an emotional tie to her anymore.” With the release of The House of My Mother, Shari hopes to close a painful chapter of her life while advocating for change. She's on track to graduate from BYU with a degree in political science and plans to work in data analytics—far from the spotlight she once lived under. Her engagement, announced on Instagram, marks a new beginning. Yet, Shari's mission to protect children from the harms of family vlogging continues. “I hope that by sharing my story, other child influencers will see that their voices matter,” she writes. “And that it's worth whatever bridges they might burn.” Shari's memoir serves as both a personal catharsis and a rallying cry against a billion-dollar industry that thrives on the commodification of childhood. The question remains: will her story be the wake-up call needed to spark meaningful change, or will the cycle of exploitation continue? The public, it seems, is just beginning to reckon with the consequences of a life lived online. Want to listen to ALL of our podcasts AD-FREE?

“Overcommitting and overworking won't lead to more popularity or more business success. It just means you're not discerning your internal boundaries well enough to give yourself that permission for space and time,” I share in this episode of The Catalyst. I've seen how neglecting those internal boundaries can fuel burnout and overwhelm, especially in high-pressure environments like healthcare.   When we push ourselves to overcommit and chase perfection, we end up ignoring our personal needs, and that's actually blocking us from reaching a state of flow—a powerful state where we perform and feel our best. My advice? Set firm, clear boundaries. Embrace “good enough” instead of perfection. And don't forget to prioritize self-care and creativity. When we're mindful of these internal boundaries, we reduce stress, find better balance, and create space for flow, leading us to a more fulfilling, productive, and healthier life.   Quotes “When you're doing something you love, it's so easy to say yes… And so when we do this and we say yes all the time, we're on that highway of burnout because as you'll see with that practitioner I talked about, burnout is three things, depersonalization, low perceived achievement, and emotional exhaustion.” (06:27 | Dr. Lara Salyer) “Overcommitting, overworking does not lead to more popularity, to more business success. It just means that you're not discerning your internal boundaries well enough to give yourself that permission of space and time.” (10:35 | Dr. Lara Salyer) “When you neglect basic needs like snacks, rest, that derails productivity… Your productivity will actually decrease the more you try to squeeze that lemonade out of that lemon. It isn't going to work. You need to have these routine cadences of breaks for your self-care.” (13:24 | Dr. Lara Salyer) “Creativity is part of the divine connection we have. It is the art of medicine. It is the reason we are human beings, not human doings… Creativity isn't just painting or drawing, writing, or dancing. Creativity is a relationship that you have with yourself. It is exploring what is curious to you.” (18:54 | Dr. Lara Salyer)   Links Book a Discovery Call: https://drlarasalyer.as.me/discovery Free Catalyst Calendar planner: https://healthinnate.activehosted.com/f/49 Past Episode referenced in this podcast: https://drlarasalyer.com/2024/03/01/episode-103-tips-on-turning-gratitude-into-greatfullness   Ads: Shop https://drlarasalyer.com/shop.

Chisomo & Bobby break down breakdancing at the 2024 Olympics and what Lindy Hoppers can take away from it. The answers are often just more questions. But some of the topics they hit upon are... accessibility in sports/arts, doo rags and zoot suits, trying to take politics out of a political dance, Lindy Hop at the Harvest Moon Ball, and the introduction of Caitlin Clark into the WNBA. We don't blame you if you're tired of this conversation, we won't be upset if you skip this one. But if you haven't watched them yet, PLEASE watch some of the great breakdancing battles of the Olympics, not just the notorious one. We think we owe our fellow Black American dance forms that much. :) No video for this one, audio only. (RECORDED AT POLICORO IN SWING!) Huge thanks to our Patreon patrons!

This week was supposed to be all about the GOP as delegates rally in Milwaukee for the Republican National Convention. However, Democratic infighting has taken center stage.While an effort is brewing to secure President Biden's spot on the ticket weeks before the Democrats' convention, congressional leaders within his own party have told Biden his candidacy could imperil down-ballot Democrats. Meanwhile, the president seems committed to pushing forward despite ominous polling. Can Biden's endorsement of liberal ideas garner support from within the party and woo voters? Senior political reporter Aaron Blake talks through all of this with senior congressional correspondent and columnist Paul Kane.Today's show was produced by Charla Freeland and Laura Benshoff. It was mixed by Sam Bair and edited by Lucy Perkins and Mary Jo Murphy. Subscribe to The Washington Post here.

On this payday, Amber and Erika deep dive into anti-blackness propagated by other Black people. Although we usually focus on whiteness and white agents of anti-blackness, this episode looks at the unique harms to our community when Black leaders and influencers peddle in anti-blackness. From pathologizing Black people to blaming and shaming us for problems directly caused by white supremacist systems, we unpack how to identify anti-blackness and why white supremacy is invested in amplifying Black agents of it. Using examples like Emmanuel Acho, Al Sharpton, Candace Owens, Charlemagne the God, and Roland Martin, we show that anti-blackness is often insidious and packaged as informative and/or liberation. Tune in to get the scoop!
