In 2023, an Oklahoma sheriff named Eddie Virden announced a multi-state task force to investigate cold cases potentially connected to Dennis Rader during the years Rader was officially considered inactive. In August of that year, deputies excavated a property near Rader's former Park City, Kansas, home using cadaver dogs and ground-penetrating radar. In March of 2024, Missouri authorities officially ruled out one case, Shawna Beth Garber, and attributed it to a different man, Talfey Reeves, who had died in 2021.Twenty years after his arrest, the BTK case is still being worked.In the fourth chapter of host Tony Brueski's five-part Hidden Killers investigation, the thirteen-year period between Rader's last confirmed killing and his 2004 resurfacing gets walked through honestly. The standard story is that he stopped. Got it under control. Aged out. The actual answer is more complicated, and several investigative offices around the country still believe parts of his record are incomplete.The episode covers what Dr. Katherine Ramsland concluded about Rader's "powering down" cycles after more than a decade of correspondence with him. It covers the Cynthia Dawn Kinney disappearance from Pawhuska, Oklahoma, in June of 1976, and the 2023 release of a Rader journal entry titled "Bad Wash Day" describing a fantasy of taking a young woman from a laundromat. It covers the divergence between the Osage County Sheriff's Office, which still considers Rader a prime suspect in the Kinney case, and the Osage County District Attorney's office, which has publicly stated the evidence does not support charges.This is the fourth uncomfortable truth of the series. The BTK case is closed for the ten murders in Kansas. It is not closed for the rest.END LINKSJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/ Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

The ‘Zen Gardener' series explored the intimacy of a garden space as a site of performance, artistic activity, of drawing and imagination. A body of video art comprising of around 80 films which have been exhibited internationally and are archived within a number of public collections. Flying under the radar… the garden becomes a site of interconnectedness, a microcosm of a larger world, where issues of borders, homeland and cultural margins and politics are explored. Predominant within these films is a military figure dressed in ill-fitting army camouflage clothing. The uniform is a mask of symbolic authority and is deflated of the power of machismo. Finnemore is interested in ideas of cultural camouflage and how "blending in" becomes a survival technique. An outward mask to move around unnoticed. This militaristic motif also becomes a contemporary extension of the pagan/Celtic myth of the Green Man- a ritual figure made out of tree branches, foliage, plants, flowers. Finnemore's guerrilla gardener film character fuses both nature and culture. He is an amalgam of different archetypes. A light and shadow figure; benign, comic, sinister, a poet, holy fool and bum, a shaman, foot soldier, rebel, guerrilla, and survivalist. The inspiration for this combative figure is Charlie Chaplin's, character in The Great Dictator. A dual role of - Adenoid Hynkel (a Hitler like figure) and an unnamed comic Jewish barber (an everyman). In this movie, Chaplin as actor, writer and director utilises comedy, tragedy and pathos to confront and warn the world of oncoming dangers of fascism in 1940's. Chaplin's mirror protagonists share the same uniform but use it to very different ends. They are characters on two sides of the same coin. Chaplin's use of laughter and humour becomes a subversive force, which reconciles opposites. Comedy and tragedy become interchangeable. Humour is intelligence, it allows insight and redemption. Peter Finnemore is an artist who seeks to ‘make visible', he embraces the broad range and language of photographic art practice, working across a range of platforms; including photographic art, video, performed activities, installation, writing and curatorial practice. Investigating the dynamic interchange between, biography & presence, generational memory, culture, history and origins which began as an exploration into the notion of home, memory and story within a Welsh cultural context. Peter Finnemore graduated in 1987 in Fine Art Photography at the Glasgow School of Art, Scotland. In 1994 he received an MFA in Photography at the University of Michigan, U.S.A.

Africa once again has an Ebola outbreak. At this point, it is centered in the so-called Greak Lakes region, with the largest number of cases in the Democratic Republic of the Congo. Uganda has also seen several cases. Sadly this is not new news. But it takes place in the context of a weakened World Health Organization, with the US withdrawal, and a stark memory of the Covid outbreaks. It also is exacerbated by the shuttering of USAID and severe cuts in health funding from the Trump Administration. The United States is insisting that any American that tests positive for the virus would be treated outside of the country, provoking protests in East Africa such as in Kenya. So is the Ebola outbreak a potential pandemic? What has been the most effective means to treat these kinds of outbreaks. And how does it influence the current intense discourses about health care delivery and wellness in the United States.

Further reading: What gives bees their sweet tooth? Show transcript: Welcome to Strange Animals Podcast. I'm your host, Kate Shaw. Right before I left on my trip to Belize a few months ago, my aunt Janice gave me a magazine to read on the plane, the Autumn 2021 copy of LivingBird. It's about birds and birdwatching. I actually forgot to take it with me and it was in my car the whole time I was gone, but when I got home I took it in to read. One article caught my eye, titled “Investigating the Sweet Tooth of Songbirds.” Literally the same day that I read that article, I stumbled across another article on ScienceDaily titled “What gives bees their sweet tooth?” And a podcast episode idea was born! You may have heard that domestic cats can't taste sweetness, and that's true. When your pet cat wants to drink the milk in a bowl of sugary cereal, it's not the sugar they care about because they can't taste it. Also, milk isn't good for cats and even if they can't taste the sugar, it can end up giving them cavities. The question is, why don't cats taste sweetness? And what other animals can't taste it either? Carnivores like cats don't need to taste sweet flavors because it's just not present in meat, which is what carnivores eat. You can test this easily if you put two saucers on the floor for your cat, one with a small amount of unseasoned chicken and a sugar cube in the other. I guarantee you the cat will eat the chicken and play with the sugar cube, which will get sugar all over the floor so maybe don't do that after all. This is where I share with you, for no reason, that when I was in elementary school I used to eat sugar cubes while pretending I was a horse. Horses can taste sweet flavors like sugar because they're herbivores. Herbivores eat plants, and in fact herbivores have a whole lot of taste buds so that they can easily tell what kind of plants they're eating. Bitter tasting plants might be toxic while sweet ones provide lots of energy. Herbivores are also keenly attuned to the taste of salt since their diet is typically low in salt and they need to seek it out. Humans are omnivores, and omnivores eat pretty much anything. Like our great ape cousins, we also evolved to eat a lot of fruit. Ripe fruit tastes sweet so we really like our sweet foods. Omnivores like dogs, pigs, and bears also like sweet foods because they're high in calories and therefore provide a lot of energy. But how does an animal lose an entire sense of taste? It's not like all tigers woke up one day and boom, the ability to taste sweetness was gone. It happens gradually as the genes responsible for an animal's sense of taste mutate over many generations. Let's take as our example the bottlenose dolphin. The ancestors of the dolphin and other cetaceans were terrestrial animals related to the ancestors of modern even-toed ungulates like hippos, camels, deer, and pigs, and were probably either herbivores or omnivores. But as the dolphin's ancestors evolved over millions of years, they shifted to a fully marine lifestyle and a fully carnivorous diet. Over the thousands and thousands of generations, the genes that control the ability to taste sweetness mutated so much that they're now useless, but since the dolphin doesn't need to taste sweetness the mutations don't matter. In the case of the bottlenose dolphin and other cetaceans, in fact, they also can't taste bitterness or umami. Umami is what helps you taste the difference between chicken and turkey, steak and pork, tuna and trout. Basically it's the flavor of meat or savory foods, including cheeses. You can taste the difference between cheddar and Swiss because of the umami receptors in your taste buds, which are determined by genes. But the dolphin eats nothing but meat! Why would it lose the ability to taste meat? Researchers think it's because the dolphin swallows fish and other animals whole, without chewing. Cetaceans and other marine carnivores like sea lions that swallow their food whole actually have almost no taste buds at all. If you're wondering what happens when an animal that can't taste sweetness has to adapt to a diet where tasting sweet foods is important, that's exactly what happened with songbirds. The ancestors of birds lost the ability to taste sweetness millions of years ago when they were dinosaurs. Then, well, you know what happened to the non-avian dinosaurs. Suddenly the ancestors of modern birds had a lot of available ecological niches to take advantage of and they evolved rapidly to fill them. This included small birds who eat berries and nectar. Genetic studies suggest that the ancestors of songbirds regained the ability to taste sweetness around 30 million years ago in Australia. The same thing happened in hummingbirds at about the same time. In both cases, the genes that control the ability to taste umami evolved to taste sweetness instead—but songbirds and hummingbirds adapted different umami genes. That's what you call a subtle case of convergent evolution. Songbirds and hummingbirds adapted to a diet high in sugar because it's a good source of energy and easily found in flowers. In turn, flowers needed to be pollinated and have their seeds spread around, so they evolved to provide even more sugars in nectar and berries. But birds aren't the only animals that pollinate flowers and are attracted to nectar. Insects can all detect sweetness. However, bees are exceptionally attuned to sweetness and have two taste neurons instead of one per taste bud. Insects don't have taste buds the same way we do, of course. In mammals, reptiles, and birds, taste buds are located on the tongue, in a few parts of the mouth, and at the top of the throat. In insects, taste receptors can be in any number of places. They're on an insect's mouthparts but often also on their feet, legs, and antennae. Some amphibians have taste receptors on the body as well as concentrated in the mouth, and many fish have taste receptors all over their body. Catfish in particular have the most taste buds known, up to 175,000. Humans have about 10,000. Cats only have about 500. Before you start feeling sorry for your cat for not being able to taste sweet foods and not having a great sense of taste in general, cats have a taste receptor we don't. It's the water sense. To us, a nice cold glass of water tastes refreshing but doesn't really have a flavor. A cat or dog, and many other animals whose diet is mostly meat even if they aren't specifically carnivores, have the ability to taste water in a way we can't even imagine. Because meat is high in salt content, having taste buds attuned to water helps the animal drink enough water to process all that salt. If you gave me the choice, I'd choose sweetness over the ability to taste water. But my cats would probably disagree. Thanks for your support, and thanks for listening!

A cat jumps on the stove to get leftovers, accidentally turns a burner, and starts a kitchen fire. The homeowner has heard of an exclusion that applies to damage caused by animals owned or kept by an insured, and is concerned that the fire will not be covered. Exactly how mad should the homeowner be with their cat? (And how long can they stay mad at that face?) Notable Timestamps [ 00:00 ] - A kitchen fire caused by a pet can initially alarm insureds who may believe the animal exclusion automatically bars coverage for any damage involving their cat or dog. [ 00:53 ] - The discussion highlights how insureds may hesitate to disclose that a pet caused the loss because they fear the claim will be denied under the policy language. [ 03:39 ] - Investigating unusual fire losses often requires origin-and-cause experts, especially when evidence suggests a stove burner was turned on without any appliance malfunction. [ 05:07 ] - The key distinction is that animal-caused property damage itself may be excluded, while the resulting fire can still qualify as a covered peril under the policy. [ 05:50 ] - Claims involving uncommon exclusions remind adjusters to carefully read the actual policy wording instead of relying on assumptions about what is or is not covered. [ 06:12 ] - Ordinary pet damage like chewing, scratching, or staining is different from a sudden accidental event such as a kitchen fire. [ 07:24 ] - Adjusters generally approach claims by looking for coverage where it exists. [ 08:45 ] - Animal exclusions are often intended to address ongoing maintenance-type damage rather than fortuitous accidental losses. [ 10:10 ] - While some courts have interpreted animal exclusions broadly, the cited cases involved extreme situations with dozens of pets causing extensive property damage. [ 11:54 ] - Maintaining good communication and rapport with insureds can help overcome misconceptions about coverage and encourage honest discussion during the investigation.

In this members episode, Tony, Derek, and Jack dig into a declassified CIA document centered on the Gateway Process, Hemi-Sync, and the Monroe Institute. What begins as a strange government study on consciousness quickly becomes a deeper conversation about out-of-body experiences, altered states, and the attempt to explain occult practices through scientific language. We break down how the document describes the mind, frequency, hypnosis, meditation, and the possibility of moving consciousness beyond the body. The discussion also explores how these ideas connect to astral projection, the search for hidden knowledge, and the dangers of opening doors that should remain closed. As the conversation unfolds, the Gateway Process begins to look less like harmless meditation and more like a spiritual experiment wrapped in government terminology. We examine whether this research points to a coming deception that reframes the supernatural as science. From the Monroe Institute to the CIA's interest in consciousness, this episode raises serious questions about what was really being studied and why.Please pray for Tony's wife, Lindsay, as she battles breast cancer.

The state prosecutor who handled Becky Hill's criminal case said there wasn't enough evidence to charge her with jury tampering. Four months later, the South Carolina Supreme Court unanimously ruled that's exactly what she did. The state never treated her conduct as the constitutional violation the Supreme Court found it to be. It never followed the evidence wherever it led.So who's investigating? Alex Murdaugh's defense team. Five days after the reversal, they filed a seventeen-page federal civil rights lawsuit against Hill. Section 1983. Six hundred thousand dollars in damages directed to the receivership. Jim Griffin said publicly the money isn't the point — the subpoena power is. Depositions. Sworn testimony. The ability to ask questions under oath that the state never bothered to ask.Eric Faddis explains the mechanics — what Section 1983 requires, why it's unusual to aim it at a court clerk rather than law enforcement, and what civil discovery opens up that the criminal process never provided. He addresses why Griffin went out of his way to distance Murdaugh personally from the damages, and what the discovery process could reveal about whether Hill acted alone.The retrial question sits behind all of it. Murdaugh is 57 and serving 40 years federal — he's never leaving prison regardless. But Maggie was 52 and Paul was 22. They were killed on their own family's property, and the legal record currently says nobody has been convicted of doing it. The guilty verdicts are gone. The life sentences are vacated. A thief's sentence is not a murderer's accountability. The obligation to answer who killed them hasn't disappeared — it's been reset.The Attorney General is reportedly considering the death penalty. Financial crimes victims have said they'll testify again. The question of who killed Maggie and Paul Murdaugh deserves an answer that can't be challenged.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Do you think AI will have an impact on science? You are wrong. It will not–it already does. The annual International Conference on Information Systems received over 1,000 more paper submissions this year. Our main journals report a 20%, 40%, or even 100% increase in submission numbers. This could be great if these papers were good, if we simply saw more and better research being produced. Problem is: We don't. What we see is an AI slop tsunami of less readable papers, hastily produced, with marginal insights if any. How should we handle this situation? We discuss a few possible levers on the supply and demand side of research that we as a field could implement. References Gartenberg, C., Hasan, S., Murray, A., & Pierce, L. (2026).

What happens when a doctor starts questioning the very system he was trained in? In this eye-opening and deeply important conversation, Darin Olien sits down with physician and metabolic health expert Dr. Dan Reardon to unpack the exploding GLP-1 weight loss drug phenomenon, the collapse of foundational health principles, and the dangerous trend of masking chronic disease instead of addressing root causes. Together, they dive into protein myths, obesity culture, pharmaceutical incentives, body positivity, metabolic dysfunction, chronic disease, and the growing "Wild West" of weight-loss injections like semaglutide and Mounjaro. But this conversation goes much deeper than weight loss. Dr. Reardon reveals his revolutionary focus on "deprescribing" medications—helping patients safely come off statins, blood pressure medications, psychiatric drugs, and GLP-1 injections by restoring the body's innate healing systems. This episode is a powerful exploration of personal sovereignty, metabolic health, medical integrity, and why the human body may be far more intelligent than modern medicine gives it credit for. What You'll Learn Why the current protein obsession may be misunderstood How the body recycles amino acids and adapts to exercise The hidden problems with ultra-high protein consumption Why GLP-1 drugs like semaglutide and Mounjaro are raising serious concerns The cultural shift from body positivity to weight-loss injections The pharmaceutical industry's incentives around obesity medications Why most people using GLP-1 drugs are not changing their lifestyle habits The side effects associated with semaglutide and related drugs How chronic disease is often treated symptomatically instead of at the root cause Why Dr. Reardon focuses on "deprescribing" medications The importance of metabolic health and foundational lifestyle medicine How modern medicine often ignores why symptoms are

"The human body is not broken: it is adaptive, intelligent, and constantly responding to the environment it's placed in. Modern medicine often suppresses symptoms without asking why they exist in the first place. Real healing begins when we stop chasing shortcuts, start addressing root causes, and create the conditions for the body to do what it was designed to do all along: heal, regulate, and thrive."

Dick Harpootlian looked into the cameras and sent a message directly to Attorney General Alan Wilson: stop playing politics with this case and do your job. It was the most pointed moment of the entire press conference.The context is the death penalty. Wilson announced his intent to seek it against Alex Murdaugh at the retrial — something he did not do the first time around. Harpootlian called the decision vindictive prosecution, arguing that the only reason for the escalation is that Murdaugh successfully appealed his conviction. Not new evidence. Not new facts. Just a defendant who won and an AG who responded by raising the stakes.The defense questioned who is actually making the decisions inside the AG's office. Harpootlian suggested it is not the career prosecutors — the trial lawyers with courtroom experience who understand what this case actually requires. He said Wilson is more likely consulting with political advisors who see the Murdaugh case as a campaign asset.Then came the second accusation: Wilson's office failed to investigate Becky Hill. She pled guilty to perjury and misconduct. The statute makes what she did a crime. And the AG apparently decided the guilty plea was enough — no deeper investigation, no attempt to determine who else might have been involved.Harpootlian framed it as a pattern of political calculation over prosecutorial duty. The death penalty announcement gets headlines. Investigating the clerk who tampered with a jury does not. The defense believes Wilson chose the headlines.Tony Brueski is joined by criminal defense attorney Bob Motta, host of Defense Diaries, and retired FBI Chief of the Behavioral Analysis Program Robin Dreeke to break down the confrontation, the vindictive prosecution claim, and why the defense is making this fight public before the retrial begins.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

In this episode, I put five of Jesus' hardest sayings under the investigative spotlight. As a cold-case homicide detective, I've spent my career testing witness statements, examining context, and following the evidence wherever it leads. In this "case file," I apply that same approach to some of the most troubling verses in the Gospels. Along the way, I'll walk through investigative tools you can use on any tough passage: Examining the historical and literary context Comparing parallel gospel accounts Understanding ancient language and idiom Testing skeptical vs. Christian explanations to see which best fits the facts If you've ever wondered whether these verses disqualify Jesus as a trustworthy source of truth, this episode is for you. Want to go deeper and learn how to think like a detective about your faith? Check out my book Forensic Faith for an in‑depth look at building a case for Christianity and living it out with confidence.

An underground Nazi weapons factory and stash of 77-year-old Denazification files. What is it really like to discover that your grandfather was a member of the SS?In 2023, journalist Lorenz Hemicker joined us to tell the tale of his grandfather, who took part in the massacre of 25,000 Jews at Rumbula in Latvia. We heard about how a radicalised First World War veteran took up the cause of National Socialism, became directly involved in the darkest of Nazi atrocities, and tried to justify himself in the years that followed.But the story goes even deeper than that. Today, Lorenz joins us again to share his incredible discoveries in the years since, and discuss how his family have confronted this legacy of atrocity.Produced by James Hickmann and edited by Dougal Patmore.We need your help!
