In August 2004, 21-year-old Katara Deboise Johnson finished her shift as an assistant manager at Taco Bell in Taylor, Texas, and drove home to her mobile home on North Dolan Street. By the following evening, her grandmother would discover her shot to death inside her bedroom.Her car was missing. Her cell phone was gone. Hours after her death, someone answered her phone and claimed to be Katara before laughter echoed in the background and the call disconnected.Her maroon Mitsubishi Lancer was later found abandoned at the Thorndale Community Pool in neighboring Milam County, miles from her home. No weapon was recovered. No signs of forced entry were reported. More than 50 people were interviewed. Polygraphs were administered. The Texas Rangers and Department of Public Safety assisted. Still, no arrests have been made.In the months that followed, frustration grew. Family members publicly questioned whether enough resources were being devoted to the case. The NAACP launched its own inquiry. Katara's sister Kenyatta revealed she had been questioned as a possible suspect, something she strongly denied. Police have never publicly named a suspect.Years passed. Her mother died in 2012 without answers. In 2019, the Williamson County Sheriff's Office took over the investigation. Authorities now believe more than one person may know what happened that night, particularly how Katara's car ended up in Thorndale.If you have any information about the murder of Katara Debois Johnson, please contact Texas Crime Stoppers at (800) 346-3243.You can support Gone Cold and listen to the show ad-free at https://patreon.com/gonecoldpodcast Find us at https://www.gonecold.comFor Gone Cold merch, visit https://gonecold.dashery.comFollow Gone Cold on Facebook, Instagram, Threads, TikTok, YouTube, and X.

On January 2nd, 2018, nineteen-year-old Blaze Bernstein walked out of his parents' home in Orange County, California, to meet a former high school classmate. He left behind his wallet, his keys, and his glasses. He never came home. In Tuesday's episode, we laid out the facts of the case.Tonight, we go deeper — into the encrypted chat logs, the self-authored diary of hate, the dating app predation, the neo-Nazi training camps, and the celebration of murder inside a domestic terror cell that most of the mainstream coverage never touched.We dig into Samuel Woodward's "Sam's Diary of Hate," a series of emails he wrote to himself documenting his campaign of terror against gay men on Grindr, and the prosecution's chilling theory that this was a "ceremonial killing" designed to win prestige within the Atomwaffen Division — a neo-Nazi terror network linked to five murders in just eight months.We walk through Woodward's paramilitary training in Texas, his meetings with the godfather of accelerationist neo-Nazi ideology, and the quarter of a million encrypted messages where Atomwaffen members celebrated the murder and called Woodward a "one-man gay Jew wrecking crew." We break down how Woodward's story changed dramatically between his police interview and his trial testimony, how he lied to Blaze's desperate parents while they searched for their missing son, and how six and a half years of delays nearly broke a family waiting for justice. And we end where the story demands — at the stones of Borrego Park, where grief became a movement.On July 3rd, 2024, Samuel Woodward was found guilty of first-degree murder with a hate crime enhancement. On November 15th, 2024, he was sentenced to life in prison without the possibility of parole.He refused to appear in the courtroom for his own sentencing.

In this episode of Sisterhood of S.W.E.A.T., Linda Mitchell sits down with Dr. John Osborne, board-certified cardiologist, lipidologist, and founder of Clear Cardio, to challenge conventional thinking around cholesterol and heart disease. Dr. Osborne explains why LDL cholesterol alone is not a reliable standalone marker for cardiovascular disease and why focusing only on traditional lab numbers can create a false sense of security. He shares how plaque can quietly develop for decades before symptoms appear — and why the first symptom for many people is a heart attack or sudden cardiac event. The conversation explores the evolution of cardiac imaging, the role of ApoB and lipoprotein(a) in risk assessment, and how advanced cardiac CT combined with artificial intelligence now allows physicians to detect, measure, and track plaque in ways that were previously impossible. This episode reframes heart disease as something that can be identified early — and potentially prevented — when the right tools are used. What We Talk About in This Episode Why LDL cholesterol alone does not tell the full story The difference between risk factors and actual disease How ApoB improves cardiovascular risk assessment Why lipoprotein(a) is genetic and should be tested at least once The limits of traditional stress testing How plaque forms in the arterial wall decades before symptoms Calcium scoring versus full cardiac CT imaging How AI is transforming plaque detection and measurement Whether arterial plaque can be slowed or reversed The real role of statins and other cholesterol-lowering tools Why you cannot out-train genetics The one scan adults over 40 should consider Quotes from This Episode Cholesterol floating in your bloodstream does not tell me if it is sticking. Risk is not disease. The first question should be: do you have plaque? Half of men and two-thirds of women, their first symptom of heart disease is a heart attack or death. The problem is not that we cannot treat plaque. The problem is that we are not looking for it early enough. Early detection for heart disease should be as routine as screening for cancer.

(Part 3 of 3) On the morning of February 8, 1983, a plumber working in London's Muswell Hill neighbor opened a drainage cover behind a Cranley Gardens apartment building and made a horrific discovery—the drain was blocked by pieces of bone and human tissue. Upon investigation, detectives traced the blockage back to one apartment in the building, where additional evidence suggested things were far worse than they'd initially thought.When the occupant of the apartment, Dennis Nilsen, was confronted with the human remains, he began telling investigators a shocking story and when he was finished, Nilsen had confessed to murdering and dismembering at fifteen men over the course of five years. In the annals of British crime, Dennis Nilsen ranks among the worst serial killers the country has ever seen, not only because of the number of people he killed, but also the method of disposal and the motive.  Mentioned in the EpisodeRead Jay Manuel's Fictional book inspired by ANTM The Wig, The Bitch & The Meltdown ReferencesBarlass, Tim, and Robert Mendick. 2006.

In this Thursday episode of Book Talk for BookTok, we bring an academic lens to bookish culture, genre fiction, and the conversations shaping romance and romantasy today. Our podcast blends literary analysis, cultural criticism, and emotional honesty. We treat romance, romantasy, and fanfiction as genres worthy of serious discussion, not just quick takes. This episode is part of our Subtext Society series, inspired by The Subtext Society Journal. The Subtext Society Journal is a collaborative publication dedicated to thoughtful essays on romance, romantasy, fan culture, and publishing ethics. We explore moral questions, genre evolution, power dynamics, and the real-world impact of stories, guided by values of literary rigor without gatekeeping, community over hierarchy, and ethics-first analysis. Today's discussion focuses on the article: “The Mother Curse in Fantasy and Romantasy." This episode explores a thought-provoking essay examining the “mother curse” in fantasy and romantasy — the recurring pattern in which maternal figures are absent, idealized, villainized, or narratively sidelined. Drawing on examples across popular genre fiction, the article argues that mothers are frequently reduced to plot devices: either saintly protectors who lack depth, antagonistic figures who embody trauma, or background characters removed from the story through death, illness, or distance. Rather than treating this as a simple trope critique, the piece considers why authors may struggle to portray complex motherhood and asks whether the genre itself avoids fully realized maternal perspectives. Ultimately, it proposes a shift toward richer, more nuanced portrayals (including stories that center mothers as protagonists) and invites readers to reconsider how fantasy narratives shape our understanding of gender, agency, and family dynamics.

In this episode, I'm unpacking something I noticed while putting myself back into real-life rooms, and once I saw it, I couldn't unsee it. This isn't about confidence. It's not about messaging. And it's definitely not about needing a better elevator pitch. It's about why so many conversations feel performative instead of powerful, why polished introductions fall flat, and how “pick me” energy quietly kills real connection, even when you're saying all the right things. We're talking voice, energy, orientation, and what actually creates connection when you stop auditioning and start engaging. In this episode, we explore: Why networking has drifted into performance instead of connection How “pick me” energy shows up in polished, over-coached voices The difference between speaking at a room and speaking into a conversation Why telling women to “speak up” misses the real issue How the frequency of your voice changes when your attention moves outward ✨ Want more grounded, honest conversations like this? I've started writing on Substack, a free space for honest thinking about identity, energy, and self-trust (aka intuition), especially in seasons of transition.

Above Spillaway Peaks, the crew of the Little Snail has found signs of a horrible corruption, tainting not only the town's oxen and their food, but perhaps of something even more fundamental. With only one clue to go one—the presumed whereabouts of a mysterious food seller—they travel further up the mountains in search of answers. What they find will draw them deeper into adventure than they ever could've imagined.

Most gym owners don't struggle because of marketing. They struggle because they can't let go of control. In this episode of Behind Gym Doors, Mike sits down with Caitlin Bovee to break down the leadership shift that changed everything inside her business. Instead of trying to control every decision, meeting, and outcome, she focused on developing leaders, building systems, and stepping out of daily operations, allowing the business to grow in a completely different way. We dive into the real challenges gym owners face when transitioning from operator to leader, including why control often becomes the hidden bottleneck preventing growth, how leadership development impacts retention and team performance, and what it actually takes to scale without doing everything yourself. If you feel stuck managing every detail or struggling to move from operator to CEO, this episode will help you rethink how growth actually happens. Want help applying this to your gym?

Today on another encore episode of the Rarified Heir Podcast, we are talking to Hugo Morley, grandson of the great actor, pitchman, foodie and much beloved Robert Morley. It's strange what stays with you as a you grow older but for host josh Mills, the obsession with the Morley film, Who's Killing the Great Chef's of Europe is right up there on this episode. We discuss this offbeat comedic crime caper as well as Morley being the face of an entire nation as the spokesman for British Airways. And that's just the Yank version of Robert Morley. For Britons and Australians, Robert Morley was known more for the 100+ films he made, beginning in 1939 which garnered him an Academy Award nomination opposite Norma Shearer and Tyrone Power in Marie Antoinette. We also learn about Hugo's father, noted U.K. theatre critic Sheridan Morley, an especially wonderful friendship with Carol Channing, along with Yul Brenner, Eli Wallach, David Tomlinson and Griff Rhys Jones as well. All played a part in Hugo's time with his grandfather and his father. Of course we discuss his grandfather's love of cuisine, time spend at grandpa's back garden pool and his ever present cigars. And did we mention Robert Morley's time in the Muppet movies? Well, sit back and relax and check out this episode of the Rarified Heir Podcast and learn about how to become a bartender and not make a mixed drink to boot. Everyone has a story.

Pilots with 50-350 hours are involved in more fatal accidents than anyone else, according to research from flight instructor Paul Craig. In this safety-focused episode, he explains the numbers behind this “killing zone,” how to avoid its traps, and whether any accident trends have changed in the 25 years he's been studying them. Paul also talks about scenario-based training (which he helped write the book on) and new flight instructors (who he teaches every day). In the Ready to Copy segment, Paul talks about VFR-into-IMC accidents, whether pilots are normal, and signing autographs in court.SHOW LINKS:* The Killing Zone, third edition: https://www.sportys.com/the-killing-zone.html* FAA-Industry Training Standards: https://www.faa.gov/training_testing/training/fits* Pilot's Tip of the Week: https://pilotworkshop.com/tip

"The black market exists only because we decided that this form of trade should be illegal." — Scott EdenIn October 2019, tech executive Tushar Atre was abducted from his oceanfront home in Santa Cruz and found murdered on his own property in the redwoods — shot execution-style, hands bound. He had spent barely three years in the cannabis business. Scott Eden's new book traces how a charismatic Silicon Valley entrepreneur, seeking to "disrupt" the newly legal weed industry, found himself entangled with an array of colorful and dangerous characters — hippie do-gooders, black-market operators, and stone-cold killers. We discuss the permeable divide between legal and illegal cannabis, why the industry has been an economic disaster for most founders, and whether America's half-pregnant approach to legalization created the conditions for Tushar's death. A California story about ambition, love, and the darker edges of the American dream.About the GuestScott Eden is an award-winning investigative journalist whose work has appeared in ESPN The Magazine, GQ, Wired, Inc., and The Atavist. His story "The Prosecution of Thabo Sefolosha" won a 2017 New York Press Club Award and a National Association of Black Journalists award for investigative reporting.

If you've ever said, "I explained this clearly… so why didn't it get done right?" — this episode is for you. In this episode of SoTellUs Time, we break down one of the most frustrating (and misunderstood) problems in business leadership: why teams don't execute the way owners expect them to — even when intentions are good, effort is high, and talent is present. The truth? Most execution failures aren't caused by lazy employees, bad attitudes, or lack of intelligence. They're caused by hidden disconnects between intention, communication, and execution.

Send a textTwelve months ago, one of my clients was in a dark place. Despite 11 years in business and a high-end portfolio, he was facing $30,000 in monthly overheads with zero visibility on future work. He was the classic Technician. Talented, exhausted, and the primary bottleneck in his own company.In this episode, I break down the exact shift we made to move him from stagnant revenue to a $163,000 pipeline in just eight weeks. We didn't focus on hustle. We focused on business logic and the correct sequence of growth. If you are stuck at the $250k to $500k mark, your problem isn't a lack of effort. It is a lack of clarity on which lever to pull next.Here's what you'll discover:The Probability Pipeline: Why scoring your leads is the only way to see three months ahead.Killing the Bottleneck: How to delegate creative sign-offs so the business can breathe.The $1,400 Day Rate: Why industry standard pricing is a ceiling you need to shatter.Sequence Over Information: Why the order of your fixes matters more than the fixes themselves.The Farmer Mindset: Shifting from daily operator to strategic CEO.Stop acting like a technician and start building an asset.

Most people don't avoid action because they're lazy.They avoid it because starting would force them to face how far behind they feel.In this episode of the Daily Path Podcast, I break down why avoidance is rarely passive and almost always a decision. One that quietly shapes your future whether you admit it or not.I share a real conversation with my brother about quitting too early, why “I wasn't good yet” is one of the most expensive lies we tell ourselves, and how the same pattern shows up for business coaches who say they want freedom but won't stay consistent long enough to earn it.We'll unpack the principle of the day, and I'll leave you with three simple ways to stop hiding in planning mode and start reinforcing the life and business you say you want.If you've been waiting to feel ready, this episode is for you.

Buy the 3rd edition here: https://asa2fly.com/the-killing-zone/This episode of Behind the Prop takes a deep, practical look at aviation safety culture, pilot decision-making, and the human factors that continue to drive accidents across all experience levels. Bobby Doss and Wally Mulhern are joined by Paul Craig, author of The Killing Zone, to discuss why judgment—not just skill or legal minimums—is the foundation of safe flying.The conversation begins with real-world examples of pilots choosing to delay or cancel flights despite external pressure, reinforcing that many of the best safety decisions never show up in accident statistics because nothing went wrong. Paul Craig shares data showing that from 2012 to 2023, approximately 82% of aviation accidents were survivable, shifting the focus toward preventing all accidents, not just fatal ones. Survivable accidents still represent breakdowns in judgment, awareness, or risk management, and often occur when pilots adopt an “it won't happen to me” mindset.A major theme of the episode is complacency, particularly as pilots gain experience. Wally and Bobby discuss how overconfidence can peak around key experience milestones, such as the first several hundred flight hours for pilots and around 1,000 hours for instructors. This complacency can quietly erode discipline in areas like preflight planning, fuel management, and risk assessment. The hosts emphasize that vigilance must be continuous, regardless of total time or aircraft type.The discussion also explores the evolution of The Killing Zone and the decision to move its third edition to an aviation-focused publisher. The book's continued relevance lies in its ability to wake pilots up to the statistically dangerous transition periods in their flying careers and encourage humility, preparation, and sound decision-making.Throughout the episode, the group stresses the importance of practical understanding over memorization. Real safety comes from applying knowledge in dynamic, imperfect situations—whether navigating unusual airspace, managing fatigue, or making conservative go/no-go decisions. The episode closes with a strong reminder that aviation safety is a shared responsibility built through mentorship, education, and a commitment to putting life ahead of ego, schedule, or expectation.

Comfortable Christianity isn't the same as following Jesus.In this episode of the Mind Bully Podcast, Norense challenges the version of faith that avoids discomfort, confrontation, and cost — and asks a hard question many believers never slow down to answer:Are we actually living out the gospel, or just protecting our comfort?This conversation unpacks why real discipleship is disruptive, why truth often creates tension, and why avoiding hard conversations about faith, culture, identity, and conviction slowly shrinks the calling God placed on your life.Jesus didn't call people to blend in.He called them to stand out.If your faith never challenges you…If obedience never costs you anything…If following Jesus feels easy, quiet, and convenient…This episode is an invitation to re-examine what you're actually living for.The difference between comfortable Christianity and true discipleshipWhy avoiding confrontation can weaken your faithHow culture pressures believers to stay silentWhy truth and love are not oppositesThe cost of following Jesus in a comfort-driven worldWhy shrinking your convictions isn't humilityHow fear of rejection shapes how we live out our faithWhere have you chosen comfort in places Jesus is calling you to courage?If this episode challenged you, stirred conviction, or named something you've been avoiding, consider rating and reviewing the podcast or sharing it with someone who's wrestling with the same tension.Discipleship was never meant to be easy.It was meant to be real.

In this episode of The Redeemed Marriage podcast, Rusty and Heather Bryant address one of the most common sources of frustration in marriage: unmet expectations. Using Valentine's Day as a relatable framework, they explore how unspoken hopes and “mind-reading” often lead to disappointment rather than connection. Through a candid and humorous conversation, the Bryants attempt to guess each other's expectations—from practical needs to physical intimacy—revealing how easily couples can miss the mark when clarity is absent. They unpack the difference between a “want list” and a “reality list,” explain why disappointment is often the result of silence, and offer practical guidance for having intentional conversations before high-pressure moments. This episode helps couples see how honest communication can deepen both emotional and physical intimacy, reminding listeners that clarity is one of the greatest gifts spouses can give each other.

We talk about a criminal trial as if it was a single event but of course that's not entirely true. A trial is made up of multiple parts starting with jury selection and going all the way to the delivery of a verdict. Not all of these stages of a trial always get attention but each of them can be tremendously important. In fact, some attorneys claim that a trial can be won or lost in the jury selection process– and that, of course, happens before any case is made to that jury. That is why we have decided to launch a new occasional series we are calling Anatomy of A Trial. In each segment, we will talk to an experienced trial lawyer who will go in depth with us about a particular piece of a trial.Our expert today is Tim Sledd. We will be talking with Tim about closing arguments. How important are these? How should defense attorneys and prosecutors approach constructing a closing argument?

Have you ever felt like you're doing all the right things, yet you still feel stuck, unmotivated, or like your momentum has quietly stalled? In this episode of The Journey to Becoming, we're talking about three hidden, often overlooked things that are killing your momentum and keeping you from stepping fully into the life and purpose God has for you. These aren't obvious sins or loud distractions. They're subtle patterns—ways of thinking and living that feel normal, even responsible—but slowly keep us from growing, moving forward, and trusting God with our next step. In this episode, we unpack: • Isolation disguised as independence: when self-reliance replaces community and we stop allowing others to support, challenge, and walk with us • Waiting for the “perfect moment” to celebrate: delaying joy, gratitude, and reflection because we believe we're not “there yet” • Comparing ourselves to a past version of who we used to be: letting yesterday's capacity, seasons, or expectations define what we believe is possible today Momentum isn't just about productivity—it's about alignment. When these unseen habits take root, they quietly steal clarity, confidence, and obedience. We may want to move forward, but we're still living anchored to the past or waiting for conditions that may never be perfect. Here's the truth: God is not speaking to you from where you've been, He is always calling you from where you're going. He speaks from your future, inviting you to grow, stretch, trust, and become. If you've been feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure why your motivation feels off, this episode will help you identify what's really going on beneath the surface and invite God into the process of moving forward with intention, faith, and renewed momentum. ✨ This is your reminder that you don't have to stay where you are. You were created to move forward and God is already there, waiting for you.

If you're locking in the wrong contracts or risking your business with bad financing, this episode with Rob Misheloff of Smarter Finance USA explains why you need a smarter freight pricing strategy, cautious contract bids, and strong carrier relationships to stay profitable in today's volatile transportation market. Rob covers the current trucking financing challenges, from equipment costs doubling and tighter credit markets to the reality of personal guarantees, common predatory lending scams, and the financial mistakes first-time owner-operators make when they don't know their true cost per mile. We also discuss the best truck financing practices, including why OEM dealers should be your first stop, when banks make sense, and how trusted brokers can help when options get tight—so you can protect your cash flow, avoid risky contracts, and build a trucking business that actually lasts!   About Rob Misheloff Robert is the founder of Smarter Finance USA (Smarter Equipment Finance LLC). After spending 10 years running a marketing company that served equipment finance and small-business finance brands, he built Smarter Finance USA to address a recurring problem he saw across the industry: when small businesses couldn't access bank loans, many were pushed into opaque financing processes where critical details were unclear until late in the deal. Robert's work centers on helping business owners and commercial sellers understand the real terms behind equipment and commercial vehicle financing - how offers are structured, where costs hide, and how to protect against common traps such as rate/term misrepresentation, conditional approvals, fee stacking, and deposit scams. His insights have been featured in industry outlets including Manufacturing.net and Overdrive Online.

⚓️ S2 | E13 — X MARKS THE SPOT What happens after the season airs? In this episode, Sarah Ferris returns to The BADmiral with new developments and reflections that surfaced once the main investigation was already out in the world. As more people came forward and new information emerged, this episode explores what becomes visible in the aftermath — why accountability is often elusive, why many people never report what they've experienced, and why uncovering a potential con can feel like trying to catch smoke with your hands. This is not an episode about declaring guilt.It's about what surfaces once belief collapses, and what the system does — or doesn't — do next.

The Constitution Study with Host Paul Engel – America thrives not by accident, but because of liberty and the rule of law. I reflect on why a nation with unmatched prosperity and influence seems eager to undermine the very principles that made it exceptional.

On the morning of February 8, 1983, a plumber working in London's Muswell Hill neighbor opened a drainage cover behind a Cranley Gardens apartment building and made a horrific discovery—the drain was blocked by pieces of bone and human tissue. Upon investigation, detectives traced the blockage back to one apartment in the building, where additional evidence suggested things were far worse than they'd initially thought.When the occupant of the apartment, Dennis Nilsen, was confronted with the human remains, he began telling investigators a shocking story and when he was finished, Nilsen had confessed to murdering and dismembering at fifteen men over the course of five years. In the annals of British crime, Dennis Nilsen ranks among the worst serial killers the country has ever seen, not only because of the number of people he killed, but also the method of disposal and the motive.  Want to help out the people of Minneapolis?
