Podcast appearances and mentions of Joan Van Ark

Send us a textThe moment I pressed play on Season 3, Episode 10 of Knots Landing, "Three Sisters," I knew something felt different. Five minutes in, it clicked—this wasn't just another drama-filled installment of our favorite primetime soap. This was Knots Landing's bold venture into the supernatural. What begins as a simple road trip transforms into something extraordinary when Laura, Karen, Valene, Lily Mae, Abby, and Ginger arrive at a secluded mansion 100 miles from home. Laura's there on business, tasked with selling the estate, while the others tag along for what they believe will be a pleasant overnight getaway. But from the first unsettling camera angles and mysterious gusts of wind, it's clear this house holds dark secrets. The genius of this episode lies in how it uses paranormal elements to explore profound character truths. Through Abby's research, we learn the mansion's tragic history—three young sisters whose mother was murdered by their father, left abandoned for months before being raised by a governess, never truly growing up as they remained in the house their entire lives. As strange occurrences multiply—windows that freeze to the touch, doors that lock from nowhere, eerie music boxes playing on their own—it's Valene who forms the deepest connection with the ghostly presence. Joan Van Ark delivers a mesmerizing performance as Valene's maternal void (having lost her daughter Lucy years earlier) makes her uniquely receptive to the ghostly children. Her trance-like state and eventual journey to the roof, where she nearly sacrifices herself to "join" the children, creates one of the series' most intense emotional climaxes. It's Lily Mae who ultimately saves her daughter, speaking directly to the spirits and breaking their hold. The final reveal—a Polaroid showing three ghostly girls standing behind Valene—provides the perfect conclusion to this anomalous yet thoroughly satisfying episode. "Three Sisters" stands as bold evidence that even the most grounded dramas can successfully venture into unexpected territory when they remain true to their emotional core. Ready to experience this haunting side of Knots Landing? Grab something bubbly, keep the lights on, and join me for an unforgettable journey into the supernatural edges of 80s television drama. When you're done, share your thoughts—did this paranormal detour surprise you as much as it did me?

Joe Szimhart has worked with more than a thousand people to help them leave cults. Through his experience being in and leaving a cult, he has focused on interventions to free others. During today's episode, Joe helps us understand why someone might join a cult, how money impacts them, and what happens when one decides to leave a cult. He also touches on the physiological aspects of what people must deal with when leaving and what some unsuccessful interventions have looked like. Tune in today to learn more about his work and signs of someone's unhealthy relationship with a group.    IN THIS EPISODE   [1:15] What is a cult? [3:12] Joe shares an example of a case he has been involved in. [7:31] What happens when someone decides to leave a cult?  [9:40] What draws people into cults?  [13:33] How does money attract people or maintain a connection to the systems?  [18:54] How long was Joe participating in a cult himself?   [22:55] Joe talks about the people he has helped in various ways. [24:46] What hasJoe learned from times he wasn't successful in helping someone leave a cult?   KEY TAKEAWAYS   People invest so much of themselves into a cult that it can cause big physiological traps for individuals when they want to leave.  Not all cults are the same in terms of money. For some, money is hidden away, and members are sought for their financial wealth. Other cults don't require members to have money and it's not a factor in getting or staying involved. To leave a cult, an intervention must show the person that they can reinstitute a sense of choice and show them the potential of carrying on their life outside of the cult they are involved with.    RESOURCES:   Beyond the Balance Sheet Website   Joseph Szimhart's Website   Books:   Brain Washing: The Science of Thought Control   How to Think about Weird Things   BIO: Joseph Szimhart has been a Cult Intervention Specialist and media consultant about cults since the early 1980s when he began helping families and individuals impacted by harmful cult behavior. He has a degree in Arts and Sciences from the University of Dayton in Ohio and a Certificate in Painting from the Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts. He is currently employed as a crisis caseworker at a psychiatric emergency hospital in Pennsylvania. His cult experience with several Theosophy-based cults from 1978 to 1980 drew him into cultic studies. He has presented papers many times at conferences, including with the Association of Sociology of Religion and the International Cultic Studies Association. As a media consultant, he provided the story for A Mother's Deception starring Joan Van Ark (1994), and his intervention work was the subject of the feature article “New Age Exorcist” in DETAILs Magazine (Sept. 1991). The International Cultic Studies Association presented him with a Lifetime Achievement Award in 2016. He maintains an art studio at his home in Stowe, PA. His first novel Mushroom Satori: The Cult Diary, was published through Aperture Press in 2013. His memoir, “Santa Fe, Bill Tate, and me: How an artist became a cult interventionist,” was released in 2020.

Joan Van Ark has hundreds of outstanding credits on stage, screen and on TV, playing everyone from “Lady Macbeth” to Gloria Fisher on “The Young and the Restless”, but she is probably best remembered as Valene Ewing on Dallas and Knot's Landing. She is engaging, and forthcoming with candid insights about her acting process, her obsession with running and boots and other entertaining backstage observations about herself and some famous co-stars.

In this episode we take a look at the pilot for the short-lived Marvel animated series , Spider-Woman (1979). As a child, Jessica Drew was bitten by a deadly spider. To save her life, her scientist father injects her with an experimental serum. The treatment is successful, but the side effects are extraordinary. Jessica develops the ability to fire concussive "venom blasts," shoot web from her body and her hearing is enhanced. Now as working as editor of Justice Magazine, Jessica Drew also battles crime as Spider-Woman.

"It eats meat!"

Slip this one in the "better late than never" slot:  earlier in the spring, the glorious actress JOAN VAN ARK returned to the proverbial scene of the crime when she briefly reprised her most iconic and most beloved television role:  that of ever-agitated Valene Ewing on TNT's vaunted reboot of the classic prime-time soap Dallas.  Van Ark was my seventh guest all the way back in this show's nascent early days, and I was thrilled to welcome her back to Brandon's Buzz for a sneak preview of the action, and though a series of crazy events in my life prevented me from getting this interview edited and assembled prior to the aforementioned Dallas episode's premiere, I suspect you'll still enjoy hearing Joan's invaluable insights about reuniting with her television family, about honoring the memory and incredible legacy of the peerless Larry Hagman, and about how it felt to slip back into poor Val's shoes some thirty years after she first donned them. 

Joan van Ark began 2013 by reprising her iconic character, Valene Ewing, on TNT's smash Dallas  reboot, a role she played for a combined 15 seasons on Dallas and Knots Landing. Also in January, the Tony nominated actress appeared as a celebrity judge on RuPaul's Drag Race, the PBS special on Prime Time Soap Icons and the indie feature Watercolor Postcards. She has earned six nominations and won two Soap Opera Digest Awards for Best Actress. She also appeared for a season on CBS's The Young and the Restless creating the role of Gloria Fisher.  Prior to her role on Knots Landing, van Ark was also a series regular on the TV sitcoms, Temperatures Rising and We've Got Each Other.  As a director, she was nominated for the prestigious Humanitas Award for an ABC Afterschool Special in which she also co-starred. Joan stops by Take 2 Radio to discuss her career, projects, and charities on Feb 19th at 7pm EST.
