The tour, produced by Live Nation, launches July 3 at London's historic Wembley Stadium connected by EE, in a UK and Europe exclusive. On July 16, Slipknot touch down in D.C.'s Nationals Park to kick off their North American jaunt, which includes performances at Citi Field in Queens, New York, Chicago's Soldier Field, Boston's Fenway Park, Los Angeles' SoFi Stadium, San Francisco's Golden Gate Park and more. The tour wraps with five South American performances in Brazil, Argentina, Chile, Peru and Colombia. Featuring a brand new set, new staging and a setlist spanning across their career, these shows will be the ultimate Slipknot experience to date. The band are joined by Bring Me The Horizon as direct support on all North American dates with a rotation of special guests along the way including: Acid Bath, Lamb of God, Motionless In White, Lorna Shore, Kublai Khan TX, Polyphia, Loathe, and Vended. Marilyn Manson, Lorna Shore and Hatebreed support Slipknot in London for the tour kick off. Manson and Hatebreed rejoin them in South America in September along with local support to warm up the crowd.” (Press Release)

Slipknot fans are pushing back on Marilyn Manson's spot on the 2027 stadium tour — six dates including Wembley — with some vowing to skip his shows. Manson denies all allegations against him, and the LA DA closed a four-year investigation without charges. Neither band has responded. The Take: look at where Manson is on this tour, and where he isn't. Also: Anthrax's Scott Ian and Charlie Benante tell Eddie Trunk they're not retiring despite an album called Cursum Perficio ("I finish the journey") — "You built the store. Why close it?" And ex-Fear Factory members Christian Olde Wolbers and Raymond Herrera have renamed Angst Fabrik as Machines Of Hate.

Before he was deemed “the Glue” by his castmates at Saturday Night Live, Phil Hartman worked as a rock ‘n roll roadie and a graphic designer. He created album covers for the bands Poco and America, as well as the logo for Crosby, Stills & Nash. He did those things as a card-carrying member of the peace and love movement. A movement that was infamously disrupted by the Manson family, a ragtag group of hippies gone evil that just so happened to include one of his former friends from high school. A friend who would later attempt to assassinate an American president. A friend who helped steer sunny California into an age of darkness. A darkness that, for Phil Hartman, led to secrets, blackmail, guns, and ultimately, a murder-suicide. This episode contains themes that may be disturbing to some listeners, including suicide.

Joe Kelly trained and worked with Dr. Joylon "Jolly" West, who, through Tom O'Neill's work, has been cast as the creator of the Manson gang. Jon has researched the Manson gang in great depth and knew Jolly. Both Joe and Jon found Jolly to be devoted to good work and a tireless advocate for cult awareness. The descriptions being offered of him are completely at odds with their experience and not based on evidence.Jon talks about his years of research into Manson, which have led him to dismiss the fairy tale created by prosecutor Vincent Bugliosi. While Manson was most certainly a criminal, he was not a hippie, and there is no evidence that he planned a race war or ordered the murders led by Charles "Tex" Watson.

In this episode, we welcome Lesley Blume back to One True Podcast to mark the 10th anniversary of her acclaimed narrative nonfiction book Everybody Behaves Badly, which chronicles the real-life story behind Hemingway's The Sun Also Rises.The conversation spans Blume's research process, Hemingway's charisma, the role of F. Scott Fitzgerald in brokering Hemingway's career, the mythological dimensions of Lady Brett Ashley, and the iconic photo on the cover of Blume's book. Throughout this wide-ranging conversation, we also discuss A Moveable Feast, Evelyn Waugh's Brideshead Revisited, J.D. Salinger's The Catcher in the Rye, and Blume's forthcoming book A Devil's Bargain, which examines the Manson murders. As with the rest of our episodes on The Sun Also Rises, we have supplemented our conversation with an excerpt from the audio book of The Sun Also Rises, performed by William Hurt.

Interview with Matt Manson, President & CEO of Radisson Mining Resources Inc.Our previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/radisson-mining-tsxvrds-obrien-82-gold-resource-growth-drilling-continues-high-success-rate-10919Recording date: 22nd Sept 2026Radisson Mining Resources Inc. (TSXV:RDS) has secured a strategic anchor shareholder while keeping its exploration programme funded. Agnico Eagle Mines Limited bought 53,420,000 units at C$1.07, raising C$57,159,400 and taking about 10.45% of the common shares. Half a warrant per unit would lift its stake to about 14.90% on a partially diluted basis if exercised. The placement remains subject to final TSX Venture Exchange acceptance.The company will use the proceeds to begin an underground exploration programme at its 100%-owned O'Brien Gold Project in the Abitibi region of Quebec. The centrepiece is an access ramp to about 300 metres vertical depth. Ore drives through mineralised zones will bring material to surface, but Radisson will not develop stopes or mining panels and does not call the work a bulk sample. Manson said the programme is meant to test continuity of mineralisation, ground conditions, dilution and the tonnes per day the orebody can support. Those variables determine whether a high-grade narrow vein deposit can be mined at a steady rate.Timing matters for investors tracking catalysts. Permitting and preliminary engineering have started. Manson expects to break ground on the portal around the middle of 2027, with about 18 months of work to reach depth. The objective is to have the ramp in place for 2029. In parallel, the 140,000-metre surface programme runs on eight rigs, with a ninth planned for a hole to 2.5 km depth. A resource update is likely by the end of 2026, followed by another in 2027.The current resource stands at 2.3 million ounces, made up of 0.63 million ounces indicated and 1.69 million ounces inferred, according to the company's release. Manson said similar mineralisation continuing to a 2 km floor points to 3 to 4 million ounces in total, and he sees upwards of 4 million ounces. Manson cites an 83% success rate for deep step-out holes from shows 98 hits from 120 holes.Valuation is where Manson sees a gap. He put the shares at US$191 per ounce on 2.3 million ounces after a C$1.17 close, against takeouts at US$500 to US$600 per ounce over the past six months. Precedent transactions are imperfect comparisons, since prices reflect stage, grade and infrastructure access. Manson also said Agnico Eagle's stake is a level Radisson is comfortable with and that the stand-alone path remains the default. Any use of the LaRonde infrastructure is a future step to be considered.Risks remain as narrow vein deposits depend on continuity, and underground development has to keep pace with any future mill feed. O'Brien is a 1920s mine site with an old tailings facility, and Manson said legacy issues must be addressed. The exploration target is unproven, and the commentary comes from a company executive with an interest in the outcome. Investors should watch the year-end resource update, exchange acceptance and the 2027 portal start.View Radisson Mining's company profile: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/radisson-resourcesSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com/subscribe

Join Rob McConnell as he welcomes Adam Gorightly, author, researcher and chronicler of conspiracy culture who proudly describes himself as a “crackpot historian.” For decades, Gorightly has immersed himself in the stranger corners of American counterculture, investigating subjects involving Charles Manson, the JFK assassination, Lee Harvey Oswald, Kerry Thornley, Discordianism, UFOs, mind-control claims and conspiracy mythology. His articles have appeared in underground magazines, alternative publications and conspiracy-oriented outlets, giving him a distinctive perspective on how unusual ideas develop and become part of popular culture. Among Gorightly's best-known books is The Shadow Over Santa Susana: Black Magic, Mind Control and the Manson Family Mythos, an exploration of Charles Manson and the cultural environment surrounding the Tate-LaBianca murders. His work ventures beyond the conventional Manson narrative into connections and alleged connections involving Hollywood's underground, occultism, Scientology, the Process Church, psychedelic drugs and MK-ULTRA. Some of these connections remain disputed or speculative, making the distinction between documented history, allegation and conspiracy theory particularly important. Gorightly is also the author of The Prankster and the Conspiracy, examining Kerry Thornley, who served with Lee Harvey Oswald in the Marines and later became an important figure in Discordianism. Gorightly subsequently compiled Historia Discordia: The Origins of the Discordian Society and has written extensively about UFO culture, including Saucers, Spooks and Kooks: UFO Disinformation in the Age of Aquarius. His specialty is not merely collecting conspiracy theories but examining the unusual people, documents, rumours, hoaxes and countercultural movements from which those stories emerged. Join Rob McConnell and Adam Gorightly on The 'X' Zone Radio Show for a journey into the wonderfully strange territory where documented history collides with conspiracy, paranoia, disinformation and what Gorightly calls “high weirdness.” How are conspiracy theories born? Can deliberate hoaxes eventually become accepted as history? What happens when intelligence operations, counterculture, UFO mythology and genuine government secrecy become intertwined? And perhaps the most intriguing question of all: when you're a self-proclaimed “crackpot historian,” how do you determine which parts of a crackpot story might actually be true?Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-x-zone-radio-tv-show--1078348/support.Please note that all CANCOM/XZBN radio and/or television shows are Copyright © REL-MAR McConnell Meda Company, Niagara, Ontario, Canada – www.rel-mar.com.

Six documentaries, two therapists, and one question running under all of them: what does the camera do to a case? Shannon takes Betrayal: Dirty Secrets, EDP445: The Sick Mind, and Joe Berlinger's Conversations with a Killer: The Charles Manson Tapes. Cathy takes The Hillside Strangler, Maternal Instinct, and The Crash.⚠️ Trigger warning: This episode includes discussions of child predation, violence against a pregnant woman, sexual assault and murder. Listener discretion is advised.SHANNON'S THREEBetrayal: Dirty Secrets (Hulu). Colorado Springs police officer Joel Kern held a decorated career and a family man image while running a secret sexual double life with roughly fifty people, using his badge and his schedule as cover. His wife Karoline found out while their daughter was hospitalized. He retired before he could be fired, kept his pension, and was never charged.EDP445: The Sick Mind. Bryant Moreland, a YouTube sports commentator with millions of subscribers, caught in a sting run by the vigilante group Predator Poachers. The clinical ground here is parasocial attachment, predatory persona construction, and the uncomfortable question of what vigilante predator catching actually accomplishes.Conversations with a Killer: The Charles Manson Tapes (Netflix). Berlinger's fifth and final entry, built from 137 previously unheard prison phone calls Manson made to a retired detective across the last nine years of his life. Survivors are centered: Dianne Lake, Catherine Share, Stephanie Schram. One detail stays with you. Manson learned his mind control technique from Dale Carnegie.CATHY'S THREEThe Hillside Strangler (MGM+). Kenneth Bianchi and Angelo Buono killed ten women and girls across Los Angeles in 1977 and 1978. The first on camera interview with Bianchi, and the first-time lead detective Frank Salerno has spoken publicly in over forty years. Bianchi claimed amnesia, submitted to hypnosis, argued his confessions were fabricated, then turned on Buono. Watch how a man relates to his own story across four decades.Maternal Instinct (Netflix). Taylor Parker faked a pregnancy for months, with a silicone belly, false ultrasounds and a gender reveal party, then murdered Reagan Simmons-Hancock, who was thirty-five weeks pregnant. She is the youngest woman on Texas death row. This one is genuinely difficult.The Crash (Netflix). Seventeen-year-old Mackenzie Shirilla drove into a brick building at over a hundred miles an hour, killing her boyfriend and his friend. No skid marks, no braking. Convicted of murder as an adult. All six are streaming now, and the discussion is better if you have already formed an opinion.Two licensed therapists, one forensic psychologist, one clinical LMFT, take apart the minds behind the crimes.

This week the show stinks of Patchouli and Nag Champa because we are discussing the mellow harmonies of the Starland Vocal Band and their hit single Afternoon Delight, released in April of 1976.

Love and Terror, The Helter Skelter History of the Manson Murders (Verso, 2026) is the most recent addition to the hundreds of books and films devoted to the killings committed by Charlie Manson's followers in Los Angeles in August 1969. What is different about this work is that the author Claudia Verhoeven is an intellectual historian whose previous book was on a Russian terrorist who tried to assassinate Tsar Alexander II in 1866. Verhoerven unpacks the various frames through which the participants, the trial lawyers, and the public at large interpreted the seemingly senseless violence. Manson was a charismatic ex-con whose lived on a ranch near LA with several dozen devoted followers, mostly teenage girls. After a drug deal gone wrong Manson arranged a series of grisly murders. The prosecution argued this was part of a crazy scheme, inspired by the Bible and the Beatles' White Album, to start an apocalyptic race war. Skeptics argue Manson was just trying to cover up the drug murders. Verhoeven, an associate professor of history at Cornell, taught a class where she used the Manson case to train her students how to conduct historical research and how to think about history.

Barry Maher spent 20 years as a corporate speaker and wrote six nonfiction books. Then he discovered he had a brain tumor the size of a baseball. He woke up from surgery with Lady Gaga playing on loop in his head and a complete, fully formed novel already there — vivid as a memory, not a dream. Two years later, that novel became The Great Dick and the Dysfunctional Demon, published at age 76. He's also in remission and can tell time again. We talked about: the moment on an Asian cruise when he couldn't read a clock and didn't know why; why his wife figured out something was wrong before he did (he was putting his clothes on backwards); introducing a ship's captain on stage and then asking him what he did for a living 15 minutes later; the doctor's clock-drawing test and the nurse who wouldn't let him go to the bathroom alone; why a brain cancer diagnosis is like an impending hanging — it concentrates the mind; the novel that emerged from surgery (complete with open crypts, dark spells, sudden death, and the Ralph Lauren version of the Manson family); why The Great Gatsby and Moby Dick are the same story; and the Lady Gaga song that played on loop in his head for three straight days (it's "Always Remember Us This Way" from A Star Is Born — he was not a fan before, and he is definitely not one now).

Sharon Tate’s entanglement with Charles Manson and her husband, filmmaker Roman Polanski, as well as her involvement in some of the long-rumored hedonistic events at her home on Cielo Drive put her at the center of a counter-narrative that explosively disrupts the supposed motive for the Manson family murders. Was Sharon Tate blissfully ignorant of the darkness that had been bubbling beneath Hollywood’s shiny veneer for years? Or is there more to this story than we’ve been told in the past? This episode contains themes that may be disturbing to some listeners, including sexual assault. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Sharon Tate was a sophisticated beauty who literally stopped traffic when she walked down the street. She began her movie career when America was becoming sexually liberated, and despite the ease with which she was made a sex symbol, she aspired to be respected as a serious actress. Decades later, however, she is perhaps best-remembered as one of the victims found brutally murdered at her Cielo Drive home, the one she shared with her husband, director Roman Polanski. Sharon and Roman welcomed regular guests to that home, including Sharon’s friend, Mama Cass Elliot, who was at the center of the Manson murders and whose actions may be why the motive for the murders that America has come to accept as fact is actually false. This episode contains themes that may be disturbing to some listeners, including sexual assault and suicide.

Now available in Canada and the UK, too This week, Tom is joined by the property owner himself, Yannis Pappas, whose special Property Owner is on YouTube now and new episodes of History Hyenas with Chrissy D out every week. They open on the underrated power of a compliment from a Philadelphia homeless man, the tier list of who compliments best, and why "you're taller than I thought" both feels great and is a little insulting. From there it's El Chapo's vitamins and the corpses he lined his driveway with, Vlad the Impaler's welcome mat, which comic could start a cult, the CIA-adjacent Manson doc that Tom actually buys, the man who survived Hiroshima and Nagasaki, and a lone plane crash survivor who walked out of the fireball scrolling his phone. Plus RFK Jr.'s gag reflex, the bear he dumped in Central Park after a long day of falcon hunting, and whether autism is just humans upgrading for the AI age. Things get real when the guys compare notes on their dads one a Korean War lieutenant who said you can't pin a medal on a dead guy, and the other a Vietnam lieutenant who figured out at 72 that the war might have affected him. Then Tom introduces Yannis to the great Pastor Manning of Harlem, and the man goes off on jobs, doo doo, Doctor King, Jay-Z, Fat Joe, and one lesbo jihadist wife, and mayor with a free bus ride plan.

Radisson Mining CEO Matt Manson discusses Agnico Eagle's C$57 million strategic investment in the company and what it means for the advancement of the O'Brien Gold Project. Manson explains how the financing allows Radisson to launch an advanced underground exploration program while continuing its fully funded 140,000-metre surface drill campaign with eight rigs. The conversation covers the importance of testing mineralization continuity and ground conditions from underground, Radisson's ambitions to grow O'Brien toward 3–4 million ounces, and why the company believes deeper ounces can have value given the surrounding Abitibi infrastructure. Manson also shares his perspective on how record cash generation among major gold producers could drive a renewed focus on growth, pipelines and strategic investments across the sector.

Was Charles Manson merely a cult leader—or used the CIA's MKUltra mind-control program? Investigative journalist Tom O'Neill spent 20 years examining Charles Manson, the Manson Family and the murders of Sharon Tate and Leno and Rosemary LaBianca. His acclaimed book, CHAOS: Charles Manson, the CIA, and the Secret History of the Sixties, challenged the accepted Helter Skelter story. In 2026, Tom was called to testify before the United States Congress about MKUltra and the files he uncovered. -- Get Tom O'Neill's book Chaos: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Chaos-Truth-Behind-Manson-Murders/dp/1786090627 -- Tom explains why Manson repeatedly escaped prison despite serious parole violations—and reveals the disturbing connections between Manson, the Haight-Ashbury Free Medical Clinic and psychiatrist Louis “Jolly” West, a secret CIA contractor involved in LSD, hypnosis and mind-control experiments. We discuss: • Whether Charles Manson was a CIA asset, informant or unwitting experimental subject • The original MKUltra documents Tom discovered after “turning every page” • Sidney Gottlieb, Jolly West and attempts to replace real memories with false ones • Evidence that the CIA gave Congress altered information about MKUltra • How Manson used LSD, hypnosis and psychological conditioning on his followers • Whether MKUltra succeeded—and whether similar programs could still exist today • What a congressional staffer allegedly told Tom about UFOs, UAPs, recovered crafts and recovered beings • Tom's night inside Marilyn Manson's house • Private dinners with Peter Thiel • Joe Rogan, Kamala Harris and the political cost of refusing difficult conversations Tom is careful to distinguish between what the documents prove and what remains an extraordinary—but increasingly difficult to dismiss—theory.

Today's episode is the Deep Dive x The First Degree Book Club crossover you didn't know you needed. We're sitting down with bestselling author Tom O'Neill to talk about CHAOS: Charles Manson, the CIA, and the Secret History of the Sixties. What began as a routine magazine assignment became a twenty-year investigation that challenged the official narrative of the Manson murders and uncovered a web of unanswered questions surrounding law enforcement, MKUltra, and the turbulent world of the late 1960s. In this wide-ranging conversation, Tom takes us behind the reporting, reflects on what he's learned since publishing the book, and revisits the evidence, theories, and unanswered questions that continue to fuel debate. Whether you've read CHAOS cover to cover or you're just conspiracy-curious, buckle up... and, as always... hats on.

This week on The First Degree, we're doing something a little different. Consider this episode your CHAOS crash course. Tom O'Neill's groundbreaking book CHAOS: Charles Manson, the CIA, and the Secret History of the Sixties has sparked years of conversation, debate, and controversy. But with this week's Deep Dive featuring an in-depth conversation with Tom himself, we wanted to make sure everyone could join us, whether you've read the book or not. In this episode, we break down the major players, the official Manson narrative, the questions O'Neill spent more than two decades investigating, and the evidence that turned CHAOS into one of the most talked-about true crime books of the last decade. Whether you're completely new to CHAOS or just need a refresher before our interview with Tom O'Neill, this is your TLDR.
