Podcast appearances and mentions of John Holmes

In the seedy underbelly of 1980s Los Angeles, a faded porn legend, a brutal drug gang, and a Hollywood mansion became the center of one of the city's most grisly and mysterious mass murders.John Holmes—once the king of adult film—was broke, addicted, and desperate. When he crossed paths with the Wonderland Gang, it set off a chain of violence that would leave four people bludgeoned to death in what LAPD called "the most savage crime scene they'd ever seen."But was Holmes a pawn… or a player? Find out this week on Death in Entertainment.

Dear listeners, lend us your ears for another trip into real life horror with another true crime episode. We are looking at the seedy “Wonderland Murders” this time, aka “The Four on the Floor” and the movie “Wonderland” (2003). John Holmes at one time was a mega star of the golden age era of adult films but eventually found himself an addict and wrapped up in the underbelly of Los Angeles. Listen in as we discuss the film and this case of desperation, savagery, and the juxtaposition of the high society of Los Angeles against the street tough world of drugs and crime.

Hoy repasaremos la vida de uno de los actores secundarios mejor pagado de la década de 1990, Val Edward Kilmer en inglés para interpretar personajes de acción o Valdomero Eduardo en español latino, para los galanes de noche y de telenovelas. El pequeño Val nació en Los Ángeles, el 31 de diciembre de 1959, fue el del medio hasta que a su hermano pequeño le dio un ataque epiléptico en un jacuzzi y se convirtió en er chico. Su padre era como cualquier padre americano, agente inmobiliario y con ascendencia alemana, irlandesa y cherokee, pero su madre era sueca na más, que los suecos son como los Habsburgo, primos hermanos y tan normal tan normal. En 1968, cuando el pequeño Val tenía 8 años, sus padres se divorciaron, pero como una sueca en esos años duraba soltera menos que Isabel Presley, dos años después su madre se volvió a casar con un nota de la iglesia de la ciencia cristiana, que lo más científico que tienen es poner una pelusa en la frente pa quitar el hipo. En el instituto tuvo de compañero a Kevin Spacey y fue la persona más joven, con sólo 17 años, en ser aceptada en la escuela de artes Julliard School de Nueva York mediante una beca, porque allí si no te becan cualquiera tapa el agujero. El del préstamo. Val comenzó a ser popular pero no en el cine si no en Broadway junto a Kevin Bacon y otro que tenía losojito también mu juntitos, Sean Pean, que Kevin Bacon estaba acojonado con que se cruzara una mosca porque se llevaba bizco tó la obra de mirar a uno y a otro. El inicio de su fama comenzó interpretando a Jim Morrison en The Doors, Tombstone, Batman Forever, que le deberían haber puesto “Batman hasta 2025” y “El Santo”. En esta época tenía pelaso, como El Puma pero en rubio, más mándibula que frente que parecía que tenía la cara puesta al revés y la sonrisa apretá de haber intentado aguantá y pensar “solo espero que no huela mucho”. En 2003 encarnó a la estrella del porno John Holmes porque él dijo que sí del tirón sin leerse el guión ni ná y luego se dio cuenta de que la peli iba de un asesinato. Un crítico de cine dijo de él que “Si hay un premio para el actor más anónimo de su generación, Kilmer debería recibirlo” que no sabía Kilmer si darle las gracias o una guantá. Salió con personajes como Cher, Cindy Crawford, Angelina Joly o Daryl Hannah, que el mes pasao parecía más su exsuegra que su exnovio. En 1988 conoció en el rodaje de Willow a la que sería su esposa y madre de sus 2 hijos, la también actriz Joanne Whalley de la que se divorció en 1996, cuando comenzó su transformación a señora que cose pa la calle. En 2015 fue diagnosticado de cáncer de laringe del que se curó, según él, poniéndose una pelusa en la frente pero que le dejó la voz como a Massiel después de una papa gorda. Desgraciadamente el 1 de abril de 2025, a los 65 años, nos dejaba Val Kilmer aunque ustedes siempre podrán recordarlo cuando vean un jacuzzi o no sepan si dar las gracias o una guantá.

Dawn Schiller - The Road Through Wonderland: Surviving John HolmesIn this archive show, Dawn Schiller joins Ed Opperman to talk about her book, The Road Through Wonderland: Surviving John Holmes. A story of abuse, drugs, porn, murder and survival. It would have been so easy to give up. But she did something harder. She took a bad situation and, over time, turned it around.Painstakingly honest, this chilling  memoir reveals how a teenager became immersed in the bizarre life of  legendary porn star John Holmes. Starting with a childhood that moulded  her perfectly to fall for the seduction of “the king of porn,” this  autobiography recounts the perilous road that Dawn Schiller  travelled—from drugs and addiction to beatings, arrests, forced  prostitution, and being sold to the drug underworld. After living  through the horrific Wonderland murders of 1981, she entered protective  custody, ran from the FBI, and turned in John Holmes to the police. This  is the true story of a young girl's harrowing escape from one of the  most infamous public figures, her struggle to survive, and her recovery  from unthinkable abuse.Website and book (a proportion of the price goes to empowering teenagers) can be bought here Recorded circa 2014Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-opperman-report--1198501/support.

The Wonderland Murders remain one of the most brutal and mysterious crime scenes in Los Angeles history. A house filled with sex, cocaine-fueled chaos, and a massacre that many believe was even bloodier than the Manson murders. And yet—no one spent a single day in prison for these horrific killings.

The Wonderland Murders occured in 1981 in Los Angeles, California, where 5 members of a drug gang were savagedly murdered in a home on Wonderland Ave in the Laurel Canyon neighborhood. Drug Kingpin Eddie Nash and porn superstar John Holmes were the biggest suspects. True Crime Quickie from Columbus, Ohio.Promo for And Then They Were Gone PodcastIntro: Shire Girl by David FesilyanOutro: Beating Heart by David RendaRainbow Crimes | creating podcast episodes | PatreonResources:https://www.michaelconnelly.com/wonderland-murders/https://allthatsinteresting.com/wonderland-murdershttps://thecinemaholic.com/wonderland-gang/https://www.the-sun.com/news/12399493/wonderland-murders-survivor-susan-launius-saved-unable-remember-attacker/https://www.upi.com/Archives/1981/07/03/Survivor-under-guard-as-star-witness-Death-in-the-Fast-Lane/8033362980800/https://www.dailymail.co.uk/femail/article-13817271/wonderland-murders-gang-docuseries-michael-connelly.htmlhttps://wonderland1981.com/https://www.zillow.com/homedetails/8763-Wonderland-Ave-Los-Angeles-CA-90046/20800819_zpid/https://meaww.com/john-holmes-and-the-wonderland-massacre-how-infamous-star-took-his-secrets-to-the-grave#:~:text=On%20July%201%2C%201981%2C%20five%20members%20of%20the,killings%20has%20been%20the%20subject%20of%20widespread%20speculation.nashhttps://ok.ru/video/395763256048https://www.rollingstone.com/culture/culture-features/john-holmes-wonderland-murders-1226610/https://www.latimes.com/archives/la-xpm-1988-03-14-mn-746-story.htmlhttps://www.dispatch.com/story/news/2024/09/21/two-teens-charged-with-murder-after-shooting-victim-dies-of-injuries-kassim-omar-wedgewood-paralyzed/75296799007/https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/crime/trans-woman-and-somali-refugee-kassim-omar-dies-of-injuries-from-a-2022-shooting/ar-AA1rcY7Rhttps://glaad.org/heroes-of-the-resistance-a-compilation-of-recent-moments-of-joy-and-positivity-for-lgbtq-people/Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/beyond-the-rainbow-podcast--4398945/support.

This will be the last True Crime California Podcast we post here, so please be sure to follow the new podcast anywhere you listen!This week, we take a look at the very well known and horrifying case of the Wonderland Murders. This case involves a slew of then-well-known names, including one John Holmes, otherwise known as Johnny Wadd, a famous (or infamous) adult film star and all around trash bag human being. From humble beginnings to incredible fame to a drug induced fall from grace, this man single handedly caused so much chaos and death for those around him, the story is almost unbelievable. However, anything is possible in Hollywood, especially in the drug fueled 1980's. Even, as you will see, a crime so bold and out in the open, it's absolutely wild that this quadruple murder, known also as the 'four on the floor' murders, is still unsolved. True Crime California Instagram: @truecrimecaliforniaSources:Malice In Wonderland: The Inside Story of the Police Investigation of The Laurel Canyon Murders, Tom Lange and Robert SouzaThe Road Through Wonderland: Surviving John Holmes, Dawn Schillerhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Holmes_(actor)https://www.michaelconnelly.com/wonderland-murders/https://www.thedailybeast.com/a-prison-interview-with-scott-thorson-wonderland-murders-witness-and-liberaces-pet/

Madonnas Brüste, Ronaldos Beine, Tom Jones' Brusthaare – manche Stars lassen sich ihre kostbarsten Körperstellen für Millionenbeträge versichern. Auch der Schauspieler John C. Holmes investierte 14 Millionen Dollar für sein bestes und wertvollstes Stück – seinen 33 cm großen Penis. (Das ist in etwa die Länge vom Ellenbogen runter bis zur Hand.) Mit dem biggest Cock im Business und seiner Rolle als Privatdetektiv Johnny Wadd wurde John Holmes zum absoluten Megastar in der Pornobranche der 1970er Jahre. Doch Holmes ging nicht nur in die Geschichte der Pornoindustrie ein, sondern auch in die Kriminalgeschichte. Denn seinen Namen bringt man mit einem der brutalsten und blutigsten Verbrechen in Verbindung, die es jemals in Los Angeles gegeben hat…

This week, Spike Carter has the wild tale of a man known as “the Zelig of Awful,” who went from being the boyfriend of Liberace to a pivotal witness in one of Los Angeles's most gruesome murders.

Later, Lea Carpenter tells us about a fascinating new book by the legendary editor Michael Korda, and how it is a cautionary tale for our times.

In this month's podcast we spoke to John Holmes, Professor of Alcohol Policy at the University of Sheffield, about no and low alcohol products. We discussed the project the Sheffield Alcohol Research Group is running on the topic, why these products are gaining attention, who consumes them, the concerns among public health groups, and what the market for such products will look like in the coming years.

In the 1970s, John Holmes was a popular adult film star. He began a downward spiral after getting hooked on drugs and made a series of bad decisions that were also criminal. His connection to the Wonderland gang landed him in court, facing murder charges. Join Mike and Morf as they discuss John Holmes and the Wonderland murders. In the late 1980s, John pitched the gang an idea to rob a drug dealer. When several people were murdered in the house on Wonderland Avenue, it was thought that it was revenge and that John was involved.

The body of critical study - and fan adoration - around the music of Napalm Death has concerned itself principally with the band's pioneering grindcore and its transition into the death metal of Harmony Corruption. But what of the band's wilderness years, the mid- to late-1990s? The 108th episode of Radical Research digs into what its hosts consider to be Napalm Death's most radical music, the four-album futurist blitzkrieg spanning the years 1994-1998. Get ready for some serious side-eye, Legions, as we cross over into the torn apart.   Note I: In the episode, Hunter mentions Ian Christe's writing on the band's 1994 album, Fear, Emptiness, Despair. In Christe's Sound of the Beast, he writes that the album, "...started a fresh chapter in the history of a band whose membership half-life had once lasted no longer than an album side. Previous urban hardcore noise blasts were mowed by sophisticated guitar layering and innovative drum patterns. Their dissonance became a conscious component of the composition, not merely a side benefit of chaos, and the marriage of intense anger and calculation yielded a masterpiece of passionate, politically minded, negative realism." Note II: In an act of gall, the scalar dimensions of which could only be compared to the Pacific Ocean, Mont Blanc, and John Holmes' ballistic member, Christe includes Fear, Emptiness, Despair in his list of the 25 Greatest Heavy Metal Albums of All Time. The list includes other controversial entries, such as Morbid Angel's Formulas Fatal to the Flesh, and Dream Death's rarely-trumpeted but mighty Journey Into Mystery. Note III: In our excitement, we failed to mention the men who produced these albums. All were produced by the estimable Colin Richardson, except Fear, Emptiness, Despair, which was handled by Pete Coleman. Only one of these gentlemen have played flute on a Skyclad album.

Jeremy and Boss smoke from the mystery sack, make their own movie about the Wonderland murders, imagine John Holmes as their father, and once again step into the Tobalinaverse as they discuss Carlos Tobalina's Casanova II.

Henry and Marcus and joined by Ed Larson of The Brighter Side podcast for the latter half of the John Holmes story, picking back up with John's unhinged, freebasing drug dealer Eddie Nash, John's fall from glory, and how the once heralded adult film star's poor choices and selfish actions lead to the gruesome (and technically unsolved) murders of 4 people in 1981.

This week the boys are back and it's gonna get - sticky... it's time for Part I of the Wonderland Murders and the cocaine-laced legend of adult film star turned killer, John Holmes.

Dawn Schiller - The Road Through Wonderland: Surviving John HolmesIn this archive show, Dawn Schiller joins Ed Opperman to talk about her book, The Road Through Wonderland: Surviving John Holmes. A story of abuse, drugs, porn, murder and survival. It would have been so easy to give up. But she did something harder. She took a bad situation and, over time, turned it around.Painstakingly honest, this chilling memoir reveals how a teenager became immersed in the bizarre life of legendary porn star John Holmes. Starting with a childhood that moulded her perfectly to fall for the seduction of “the king of porn,” this autobiography recounts the perilous road that Dawn Schiller travelled—from drugs and addiction to beatings, arrests, forced prostitution, and being sold to the drug underworld. After living through the horrific Wonderland murders of 1981, she entered protective custody, ran from the FBI, and turned in John Holmes to the police. This is the true story of a young girl's harrowing escape from one of the most infamous public figures, her struggle to survive, and her recovery from unthinkable abuse.Website and book (a proportion of the price goes to empowering teenagers) can be bought here Recorded circa 2014This show is part of the Spreaker Prime Network, if you are interested in advertising on this podcast, contact us at https://www.spreaker.com/show/1198501/advertisement

This month we launched an all new season of BADLANDS, and we're bringing you a preview here. This is the show where DISGRACELAND host Jake Brennan blends history and true crime to tell the transgressive stories of some of the biggest names in Hollywood, including the mysterious deaths of Marilyn Monroe and Natalie Wood…Tim Allen's former career as a low-level drug dealer…the curse of the movie Poltergeist…how porn star John Holmes got caught up in the infamous Wonderland murders…and more episodes on Winona Ryder, River Phoenix, Gianni Versace, Robin Williams, Heath Ledger, Sharon Tate, Robert Downey Jr., and so many more. Search BADLANDS to hear 70+ episodes, including this new episode on Johnny Depp. Johnny Depp prefers the shadows to the limelight, whether he's building a bomb with Hunter S. Thompson in the Rocky Mountains, or downing bootleg quaaludes laced with arsenic. After emerging as the leading art flick actor of the 1990s, prodding paparazzi's desire to paint him as a “novelty boy” often drove him to outbursts that ended in arrests, wrecked hotel rooms, and a miffed Kate Moss and Roger Daltrey. Yet even with camera flashes constantly lighting up his private life, plenty of mysteries still surround Johnny Depp…including the unsolved disappearance of his former Viper Room co-owner – who went missing just days before he was supposed to testify against Johnny in court.

WENDY GROUNDS:  You're listening to Manage This, the podcast for project managers by project managers.  My name is Wendy Grounds, and with me in the studio is Bill Yates and our engineer, Danny Brewer.  We love having you join us twice a month to be motivated and inspired by project stories, leadership lessons, and advice from industry experts from all around the world; and we love to bring you some support as you navigate your projects.  You can also claim free Professional Development Units from PMI by listening to our show.  Listen up at the end of the show for advice on how to do that. Now, Bill, we have an interesting conversation with John Holmes today. BILL YATES:  Yes. WENDY GROUNDS:  He's from Atlas Turf.  Atlas Turf produced the grass for some of the world's premier golf associations.  And I love the story that he was responsible for the turf that was used in the 2022 FIFA World Cup. BILL YATES:  Isn't that amazing, yeah.  And he happens to be – their company is headquartered here in Georgia.  But he has delivered product and solutions all over the globe.  He's had a lot of personal travel.  I'd like to see his passport and see some of the stamps in that. WENDY GROUNDS:  And he also has been in places like Sri Lanka, Mauritius, the Maldives, New Caledonia, Seychelles.  It's all over the world into very interesting places he's taking his grass. BILL YATES:  That's true.  He delivers.  WENDY GROUNDS:  Hi, John.  Welcome to Manage This.  Thank you so much for joining us today. JOHN HOLMES:  So glad to be here and able to share our unique story. Meet John WENDY GROUNDS:  Have you always worked with turf?  What was your career path? JOHN HOLMES:  I have a degree in turf grass management.  But my career started when I was a teenager working on the local golf course in our town.  And in doing so I discovered that you could actually go to college and get a degree in managing turf grass, and I did that and became a golf course superintendent, managing the turf grass on a golf course, almost 32 years ago. BILL YATES:  How about that.  So you've been working with grass for 30-something years.  And then how did you come to Atlas, you know, what was that transition? JOHN HOLMES:  My career as a golf course superintendent took me and my wife to Mexico and...

John Holmes is the most iconic adult film star in american histroy. What's more impressive than his rise to face was his horrific downfall that ultimately led to the Wonderland, Four on the Floor Murders.***SPONSORS***calm.com/brohio and save 40%!bluechew.com Use the PROMO CODE BROHIO FOR YOUR FREE SHIPMENT!!!!

The Wonderland Murders, or The Four on the Floor case is a case from the old days of Hollywood. It's not the kind of old Hollywood case that Ash usually delivers, this one instead is a totally different take. The Wonderland Gang was made up of a group of people you definitely would not want to mess with, however one of the key players in this case, John Holmes did just that. He got on the bad side of the gang and had to come up with a way to get back in their good graces. Unfortunately that plan would lead to one of the most gruesome mass murders the police had seen since the Tate-LaBianca murders.
