On this episode we talk about: Patrick's unlikely journey from floundering college dropout and Army recruit to multimillion-dollar entrepreneur and bestselling author How the military taught him discipline and the value of following clear steps and systems Building and exiting a consulting company with his wife—from side hustle to full-time to acquisition Why “betting on yourself” can unlock more security and fulfillment than any traditional “safe” career path Insights from “Disrupt Everything”: Defining purpose, thriving under adversity, and finding opportunity in uncertainty Behind the scenes on co-authoring with James Patterson, blending powerful storytelling with actionable business wisdom Top 3 Takeaways Most “overnight” entrepreneurs start with side hustles, lots of hours, and calculated risk—build your skillset, then leap when the moment is right. Define your mission, values, and purpose early, and you'll weather any disruption or crisis thrown your way. True opportunity is often found in chaos—if you're willing to pivot and act when everyone else hesitates. Notable Quotes “If you can fail at what you don't want, you may as well take a chance on what you love.” “At some point, you need to ask, do you want a safe job—or would you rather bet on yourself?” “Times of uncertainty are fertile ground for opportunity—if you're clear on your purpose, you can disrupt everything and win.” Connect with Patrick Leddin: Website: patrickleddin.com ✖️✖️✖️✖️

How did those experiences shape your resilience and your drive to succeed? 4. You describe your father quitting his job to essentially “coach” you through life. What were some of the unusual or even tough methods he used that ultimately paid off? 5. From not speaking as a child to anchoring a national news show—your journey is extraordinary. What do you think surprised people most when they learned your story? 6. Your book is both raw and hopeful.

James Patterson's new book, The Idaho Four: An American Tragedy, offers a detailed and emotionally charged narrative of the 2022 murders of four University of Idaho students—Kaylee Goncalves, Madison Mogen, Xana Kernodle, and Ethan Chapin. The book reconstructs the victims' final hours and the immediate aftermath of the killings, weaving together personal details about their lives, relationships, and the horror of what took place inside their off-campus home. Patterson brings readers inside the crime scene, the families' heartbreak, and the small-town panic that erupted as police struggled to explain the brutality of what had occurred.The second half of the book zeroes in on Bryan Kohberger, the man who ultimately pleaded guilty to the murders. Patterson paints a chilling profile of a socially alienated criminology student who studied the psychology of killers and believed he could execute the perfect crime. The narrative follows how Kohberger's mistakes—especially leaving behind a knife sheath—led to a meticulous investigation that unraveled his plan. Combining investigative detail with fast-paced storytelling, the book challenges readers to weigh the evidence for themselves, positioning them as the jury in a case that still echoes with unanswered questions and shattered lives.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:New book on University of Idaho murders sheds light on Bryan Kohberger's potential motive - ABC NewsBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.

We unpacks the research behind “positive disruptors,” the five roles leaders can choose in any moment, and the practical moves that keep teams calm, clear, and effective when stakes are high.In this episode, you'll learn:

Paranormal Heart welcomes J.D.Barker September 30th, 2025 EP:53 J.D, Barker Bio J.D. Barker (Jonathan Dylan Barker) is a New York Times and international bestselling American author whose work has been broadly described as suspense thrillers, often incorporating elements of horror, crime, mystery, science fiction, and the supernatural. Barker was born January 7, 1971 in Lombard, Illinois and spent the first fourteen years of his life in Crystal Lake, Illinois. A staunch introvert, he was rarely seen without a book in hand, devouring both the Hardy Boys and Nancy Drew series by the age of six before moving on to classics such as the works of Dickens and Twain. The discovery of Shelley, Stoker and Poe fueled a fire and it wasn't long before he was writing tales of his own which he shared with friends and family. These early stories centered around witches and ghosts thought to inhabit the woods surrounding their home. Barker's initial indie success drew the attention of traditional agents and publishers and in early 2016 his debut thriller, The Fourth Monkey, sold in a series of pre-empts and auctions worldwide with Houghton Mifflin Harcourt set to publish in the U.S. and HarperCollins in the UK. The book has also sold for both film and television. He has since gone on to write numerous titles which have appeared on bestseller lists around the world. He is also a frequent collaborator with James Patterson. Barker splits his time between Englewood, FL, and New Castle, NH, with his wife, Dayna, and their daughter, Ember. J.D.

When a creative mind trained in Hollywood's competitive structure ventures into the world of novel writing, the results can be illuminating. Shan Serafin's journey from James Patterson collaborator to solo novelist offers fascinating insights into the modern creative landscape, and a passionate warning about the future of human expression.Serafin reveals the unexpected path that led him to co-authoring bestsellers with Patterson, crediting his manager for seeing novel-writing potential he hadn't recognized in himself. "When writing a novel, you create an entire universe," Serafin explains, contrasting this with screenwriting, where directors, designers, and actors share the creative burden. This collaborative foundation provided crucial storytelling skills, particularly Patterson's ability to identify that critical "one percent" that transforms a good story into an exceptional one.Now standing at the threshold of his solo career with The Paris Vendetta Serafin shares the ironic origin story of a book he never intended to write. Having moved to Paris with two clear goals, not to write about the city and not to write about himself, he found himself doing precisely both when COVID isolation and unexpected encounters with European business figures sparked his creative imagination.But it's when addressing artificial intelligence's role in creative work that the conversation takes its most passionate turn. Serafin delivers a warning about AI's homogenizing effect on artistic expression: "If you start using AI as a creative person, it will homogenize everyone slowly because it's just basing everything on what currently gets the most attention in the shortest time." While acknowledging AI's benefits in fields like medicine, he argues that in creative pursuits, it threatens the very diverse human voices that make literature meaningful.For writers struggling to break through, Serafin offers hard-earned wisdom about nurturing your authentic voice despite rejection. Have a comment?

What began as a typical game day celebration for University of Idaho students would end in unimaginable horror on Saturday, November 12, 2022. Xana Kernodle, a marketing junior, spent the day with friends, including her boyfriend Ethan Chapin and housemates Dylan, Bethany, Kaylee and Maddie at their shared home on 1122 King Road. After parties and celebrations, the group returned home in the early hours of Sunday morning. At around 4am, Dylan heard disturbing sounds. When she cracked her door open, Dylan saw a masked man with bushy eyebrows holding what looked like a vacuum cleaner. The next day, when upstairs roommates wouldn't answer their phones, friends discovered the bodies of Xana, Ethan, Kaylee and Maddie - all brutally stabbed to death. Vicky Ward, co-author of The Idaho Four: An American Tragedy, joins Claire to explore this devastating case. You can find her book here.

With a new legal thriller on the horizon, we're revisiting James Patterson's 2024 interview about #1 Lawyer. The bestselling author shares how he builds courtroom suspense and what makes a legal story truly gripping. —-- James Patterson has written bestsellers in many genres. But as he tells the ABA Journal's Lee Rawles in this episode of The Modern Law Library, he has always been fascinated by legal thrillers, courtroom dramas and crime novels. He even considered becoming a lawyer, before his literary career took off. In his newest release, The #1 Lawyer, James Patterson partnered with co-author Nancy Allen to tell the story of Stafford Lee Penney, a criminal defense attorney in Biloxi, Mississippi, who's never lost a case. But after handing a high-profile murder trial involving the son of a mobster, Penney finds himself on the other side of the bench as a defendant himself, charged with murdering his own wife. Patterson has written and co-written more than 300 books, including bestselling series like Alex Cross, Women's Murder Club and Maximum Ride. He had some writing tips for attorneys, particularly on how to work collaboratively. As Patterson tells listeners in the podcast, he is open about working with other writers on many of his books, and he finds tools like outlining absolutely essential. He also shares with Rawles how he thinks co-writers should handle interpersonal communication while working together. Patterson says one of the major benefits of working with co-authors is pulling from their experiences to make his books more accurate and true to life. When he wrote The President is Missing with Bill Clinton, the former president could tell Patterson the inside details of how a Secret Service detail worked. When he wrote Run, Rose, Run with Dolly Parton, she walked him through the production cycle for a song. Allen, who conducted more than 30 jury trials as a prosecutor in Missouri and taught law for 15 years at Missouri State University, contributed her firsthand courtroom experience to The #1 Lawyer. Patterson says they worked to make everything as accurate as possible—while still allowing for a good story. It's the pair's second book together, following a previous standalone novel, Juror #3. In this episode of The Modern Law Library, Patterson shares some of his favorite law-related pop culture picks; news about new and ongoing projects; and describes a very special birthday event with Dolly Parton. He also discusses how his children's series Maximum Ride got caught up in Florida book bans in 2023. For fans of Patterson's breakout success, the Alex Cross series launched in 1993 with Along Came a Spider, the author shares updates about what's next for the intrepid detective—including details about the upcoming Amazon Prime TV series Cross, starring Aldis Hodge.

5 New Gag-Order Lifted Revelations In The Bryan Kohberger Case The silence is over. After nearly two years under a sweeping gag order, shocking new details in the Bryan Kohberger case are finally public—and they paint a disturbing picture of obsession, manipulation, and forensic precision. In this episode, we break down everything that's emerged since the gag order was lifted in July 2025. From Kohberger's eerie job interview with Pullman Police Chief Gary Jenkins, to revelations that his white Hyundai Elantra was almost dismissed as irrelevant due to a technicality—this is the full picture investigators couldn't talk about until now. You'll hear what was really found in his barren Pullman apartment (spoiler: almost nothing), how law enforcement overlooked critical car evidence, and what newly unsealed 911 call transcripts and roommate texts reveal about the horrific night of the murders. We also dive into The Idaho Four: An American Tragedy by James Patterson and Vicky Ward, which suggests Kohberger may have fixated on victim Madison Mogen after being rejected—offering one of the first public theories of motive. Plus: Kaylee Goncalves' parents are finally speaking out, still trying to learn how many times their daughter was stabbed. With Kohberger's sentencing approaching and new voices entering the conversation, the public finally gets access to the brutal reality behind the redacted headlines. If you want the full breakdown of what we've just learned about Bryan Kohberger, this is the episode you don't want to miss.

James Patterson's new book, The Idaho Four: An American Tragedy, offers a detailed and emotionally charged narrative of the 2022 murders of four University of Idaho students—Kaylee Goncalves, Madison Mogen, Xana Kernodle, and Ethan Chapin. The book reconstructs the victims' final hours and the immediate aftermath of the killings, weaving together personal details about their lives, relationships, and the horror of what took place inside their off-campus home. Patterson brings readers inside the crime scene, the families' heartbreak, and the small-town panic that erupted as police struggled to explain the brutality of what had occurred.The second half of the book zeroes in on Bryan Kohberger, the man who ultimately pleaded guilty to the murders. Patterson paints a chilling profile of a socially alienated criminology student who studied the psychology of killers and believed he could execute the perfect crime. The narrative follows how Kohberger's mistakes—especially leaving behind a knife sheath—led to a meticulous investigation that unraveled his plan. Combining investigative detail with fast-paced storytelling, the book challenges readers to weigh the evidence for themselves, positioning them as the jury in a case that still echoes with unanswered questions and shattered lives.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:New book on University of Idaho murders sheds light on Bryan Kohberger's potential motive - ABC NewsJames Patterson's new book, The Idaho Four: An American Tragedy, offers a detailed and emotionally charged narrative of the 2022 murders of four University of Idaho students—Kaylee Goncalves, Madison Mogen, Xana Kernodle, and Ethan Chapin.

Kaylee Goncalves, Madison Mogen, Xana Kernodle, and Ethan Chapin, four University of Idaho students in their 20s, were brutally murdered inside their off-campus home in the early morning hours on November 13, 2022. Two surviving roommates and a heartwrenching 911 call led police to discover the friends stabbed to death inside the three-story house at 1122 King Road. The safe place that once rang with parties, TikTok dances and laughter, was eerily silenced, surrounded by a nationwide media circus and sealed with crime scene tape. The murderer, Bryan Kohberger, a Ph.D student at Washington State University, pled guilty to all counts in exchange for the death penalty to be taken off the table. But still, the families of the victims, and everyone who has been consumed by this case since day one, want to know why Kohberger took these innocent lives.Made With Kindness is a nonprofit organization started in honor of Kaylee Goncalves, Maddie Mogen, and Xana Kernodle.

Today on Mea Culpa, I'm joined by Vicky Ward, New York Times bestselling author, podcaster, documentary host and producer, and former CNN Senior Reporter, for an unfiltered conversation on Trump's authoritarian grip, Elon Musk's chaotic political ambitions, and the terrifying consequences of unchecked power. We unpack how Trump has surrounded himself with unqualified loyalists, and why Musk's third-party movement could merge tech oligarchy with MAGA populism. From the deadly floods in Texas to America's collapsing global credibility, we expose the cost of cruelty, the silence of Democrats, and what happens when spectacle replaces substance. Plus, Vicky discusses her new book, “The Idaho Four: An American Tragedy,” co-authored with James Patterson.
