Podcast appearances and mentions of Michael Jackson

The guys spend today's show talking Kings, Luka Doncic, Kevin Durant and so much more.

“I mean, you know how it was with Michael. And when I heard that phrase, it was just... He saved my life. Like, what? He just sung a song, right? Like, but, you know, take probably one of my favorites, ‘Man in the Mirror.' Man, it still gets me. So, just from an experience standpoint, and I've done some travels in mental health and, you know, talking to people, I do understand how important music, or how powerful I should say, music is. So it absolutely feels like that being a musician, and then, I think, if you're a musician in church, it's… I've had some moments, Jodi.” – Jastin ArtisThis episode's guest is a multi-faceted artist, producer, engineer, and indie A&R who bridges creativity with leadership.

I would so appreciate that.(00:00) - How Sound Shapes Our EmotionsAs we start things off, Jastin tells us about his early musical influences, from Jimi Hendrix and Led Zeppelin to growing up with Michael Jackson on the radio. “I would say I was probably four or five,” he recalls. “It was when the movie came out, Moonwalker, and I used to go to my mom's friend's house who was in the neighborhood every day after school and watch that movie.” We talk about the power of sound and music, and how easy it is to lose touch with our musical side as adults. “Everybody who has a guitar that's for decoration, that's sitting there,” he says. “I'm telling you, please pick it up. Play it while you're watching your favorite show, whatever. That little time adds up.”(10:45) – Harnessing the Power of MusicOur conversation focuses on the healing power of sound, and the impact it's made on Jastin's own life. “If it weren't for music,” he tells us, “I don't think I would be here… if I didn't have access to these records, if I didn't have that, just, I don't think I would be the man that I am.” He shares his perspective as producer and A&R executive, and how hard it can be to shake off that perspective sometimes when it comes to just sitting back and enjoying music. “I'm listening and I'm like, wait a minute,” he says, “what did they do, know what I mean? And then other times you're just, let me just chill.”(18:30) - The Intersection of Sound and BrandingAs the first half of our conversation wraps up, Jastin tells us more about his A&R work and what it's taught him about the sound...

In this segment of The Clay Edwards Show, my buddy Scott calls in to piggyback on a heated moment from an earlier caller that got my blood boiling. We dive into why not every derogatory remark is inherently racist—it's often just a descriptor taken out of context—and how life's too short to get offended over words. Scott defends my Christianity against critics, pointing out that the Bible is full of imperfect people God used, like murderer Moses and adulterer David, and reminds everyone that only God gets to judge. We take a fun detour when he mentions Michael Jackson on his playlist, sparking my thoughts on revisiting the MJ allegations with fresh eyes given what we know now about Epstein and fake accusations—maybe he was saving kids or just a perpetual child himself. Scott wraps by noting how true conservatives question settled narratives, unlike leftist ideologues, and we share a laugh before signing off.

Su sonido fusiona el pop y electropop más fresco con el groove arrollador del funk y el soul, logrando un estilo propio con identidad muy marcada. Entre sus influencias destacan desde clásicos como Stevie Wonder, James Brown, Bill Withers y Michael Jackson, hasta referentes contemporáneos como Jamiroquai, Daft Punk, Parcels, Bruno Mars y Silk Sonic. En su nuevo EP, Free To Love, incorporan una mayor presencia de elementos electrónicos, anticipando la dirección sonora hacia la que se orienta la banda: un sonido más sintético, moderno y bailable, sin perder la esencia cálida y orgánica que los caracteriza. En directo, completan el sexteto batería, bajo, teclado y saxo, dando forma a una propuesta tan enérgica como elegante.Escuchar audio

Tous les mercredis à 17h30, Margaux Lassalle met en lumière les reprises d'un titre culte. Cette semaine, focus sur "Billie Jean", sorti en 1982. Produit par Quincy Jones, le morceau s'inspire d'une histoire personnelle de Michael Jackson, confronté à une fan affirmant qu'il était le père de son enfant. Avec son célèbre "The kid is not my son", la chanson devient un succès planétaire et participe à faire de Thriller l'album le plus vendu de l'histoire. Le titre a depuis été revisité dans de nombreux styles. En 1984, Shinehead en propose une version reggae étonnante. La même année, The Flying Pickets la reprennent entièrement a cappella. En 2007, Chris Cornell la transforme en ballade rock sombre, tandis que The Civil Wars en livrent une lecture folk épurée au début des années 2010. En 2019, Weezer choisit "Billie Jean" pour son Weezer (Teal Album), dans une version power pop fidèle à l'originale. Hébergé par Audiomeans.

Tony Barbieri has been with 'Jimmy Kimmel Live!' since the beginning—and with Jimmy Kimmel even longer. On this episode of Inside Late Night, he joins Mark Malkoff to talk about the show's early “Wild West” days, the evolution of Kimmel's voice, and creating his live-wire alter ego Jake Byrd, who's crashed everything from Michael Jackson trials to Trump rallies. It's a candid look at more than two decades inside late night.

Pour le troisième épisode de notre mini-série sur les théories du complot, on plonge dans un univers où les icônes ne meurent jamais, où les doubles remplacent les originaux et où des symboles cachés seraient la preuve d'un système occulte.Elvis Presley serait devenu pasteur sous une autre identité. Michael Jackson aurait planifié sa disparition. Britney Spears aurait été remplacée par un clone. Kanye West laisserait des indices Illuminati dans ses clips. Avril Lavigne ne serait plus Avril, mais Melissa. Paul McCartney serait mort en 1966. Keanu Reeves serait immortel. Même la mort tragique de la princesse Diana continue d'alimenter les soupçons.Ces récits peuvent sembler extravagants, mais ils circulent sérieusement, se documentent et se transmettent comme des vérités alternatives.Pourquoi Elvis serait-il toujours vivant? Pourquoi certains voient-ils Michael Jackson dans chaque reflet flou? Comment des glitchs vidéo peuvent-ils transformer Justin Bieber ou Katy Perry en reptiliens? Et pourquoi le vieillissement de Britney Spears, d'Eminem ou de Gucci Mane devient-il, pour certains, la preuve d'un remplacement?Dans cet épisode, on revisite les morts supposément truquées d'Elvis et de Michael Jackson, les théories de clones autour de Britney Spears, Eminem et Gucci Mane, les accusations Illuminati visant Kanye West, ainsi que les mythes plus anciens comme “Paul is dead”. On s'attarde aussi aux théories plus légères, comme l'immortalité de Keanu Reeves, et aux plus graves, comme celles entourant la mort de la princesse Diana.On examine les “preuves” avancées : autopsies classifiées, comparaisons de visages, symboles dans des pochettes d'album, tweets piratés, coïncidences biographiques, puis on les remet en perspective. Qu'est-ce qui repose sur des faits établis? Qu'est-ce qui relève surtout d'une lecture séduisante du mystère?En After show : on plonge dans l'univers des célébrités reptiliennes, avec Justin Bieber, Katy Perry et d'autres figures accusées d'être des shapeshifters. On explore l'origine de ces théories et la manière dont des artefacts numériques deviennent, pour certains, des preuves irréfutables.nordvpn.com/distorsion : Rabais exclusif sur ton abonnement + plus 4 mois gratuits!ÉrosEt Compagnie : 15% de rabais avec le code DistorsionPatreon | Site Web | Boutique Hébergé par Acast.

Hay historias que parecen sacadas de un guion de Scorsese pero que ocurrieron en unos estudios de grabación de Barcelona. Esta es una de ellas. David Cuevas, autor de la primera y única obra que recoge la historia no contada de la música dance comercial en España —Tony Peret y sus herman@s en el ritmo—, nos descubre el reverso tenebroso de aquellos megamixes que vendieron millones de discos y que todos tarareábamos en los 80 y 90. Detrás de los Max Mix, los Bolero Mix o los Máquina Total había un negocio multimillonario plagado de amenazas con cortarte las piernas, revólveres sobre la mesa, artistas explotados durante jornadas de 18 horas y, en el episodio más surrealista de todos, una banda de sicarios mexicanos conocidos como "los mocha orejas" contratados para secuestrar y asesinar a un socio díscolo. Desde los humildes orígenes de unos maleteros que vendían vinilos en el maletero del coche hasta las guerras entre Max Music y Blanco y Negro, pasando por la creación del mítico Dream Team de los megamixers y las ventas que hacían palidecer a Madonna y Michael Jackson en las listas españolas. Una historia real que supera con creces cualquier ficción. Bienvenidos al lado más extraño de la pista de baile.

But then, the people on that podcast might be quacks, and I still don't really know what to make of MJ. Also, they mentioned the Diddy case in a way that confused me.

John X hosts the third episode of “Born In Trouble” with guests Robert Brooks (in-studio) and Andrew Johnson (host of the Men Money and Marriage Podcast). The conversation ranges from reactions to a Spanish-language halftime performance and public discomfort with other cultures, to concerns that the U.S. is increasingly divided and “full of” contradictions. They discuss faith and the idea that there is only one God/Jesus, argue that protecting vulnerable children is a moral imperative, and condemn pedophilia while criticizing how high-profile cases and trials are drip-fed to distract the public. They talk about Jeffrey Epstein, Ghislaine Maxwell's alleged intelligence ties, and claim Epstein did not want Black people on the island, framing it as “white on white crime,” while cautioning against pulling Black people in as scapegoats. They revisit Michael Jackson, suggesting allegations were tied to power and music publishing, describing how he amassed catalogs (including the Beatles and Sony-related publishing) and used leverage in the industry, including returning Little Richard's rights. The episode also covers immigration and business incentives to exploit undocumented labor, including avoiding taxes/benefits, and connects this to broader U.S. history and Manifest Destiny, arguing people are “coming back” to land taken from Mexico. They speculate about hidden history, restricted sites like parts of the Grand Canyon, and debates over identity, criticizing tribalism and the use of slurs within communities. Andrew shares concerns about his daughter's future, rising costs, and the increasing age of first-time homebuyers; they discuss 50-year mortgages as “glorified renting” and how lack of equity could discourage divorce. They debate AI's impact on jobs, suggesting timelines are exaggerated but warning about motives, and they argue screen-based schooling and phone dependence reduce creativity and critical thinking in Gen Z. They briefly mention hypocrisy around anti-LGBTQ rhetoric (including Grindr spikes during Republican conventions) and insist people should be judged by character rather than group identity. The episode closes with a warning about scapegoating, references to “ghetto loans” from mortgage work, commentary on hypocrisy in politics and culture, and a sign-off framing the episode as “Devil Worshipers,” with plans for future episodes and a possible one-on-one with Grant Lancaster. 00:00 Cold Open and Guests 01:02 Valentine's Day Banter 02:49 Welcome to Born In Trouble 03:40 Super Bowl Halftime Debate 05:47 Do We Stand for Anything 06:19 Faith and Protecting Kids 08:40 Immigration and Business Incentives 10:57 Division and Distraction Politics 12:35 Michael Jackson Revisited 15:02 Publishing Power and Catalog Wars 18:06 Epstein Network and Race 23:01 Manifest Destiny and Hidden History 25:34 Identity Tribalism and Language 28:55 When Did It Get So Tribal 29:16 Tribal Cities Talk 31:18 Parenting and Housing Fears 32:25 Looking Rich Economy 33:22 Fifty Year Mortgages 36:16 Aging Out the Demo 37:32 AI Jobs Reality Check 42:02 Screen Age Kids 45:05 Tribalism and Community 49:19 LGBTQ and Hypocrisy 54:17 Closing Thoughts and Signoff

Charlie Parker was punk rock before there was punk rock. His bebop was underground music: subversive, intellectual, and a major departure from popular music of the day (think: Nat King Cole, The Andrews Sisters, Perry Como). He was an intellectual heavyweight, nearly untouchable in his technical ability and pushing music to places no one else was daring to go. So where did Charlie Parker with Strings, his most accessible album, come from?It's not Bird going commercial, like some have claimed. Charlie Parker with Strings is an album he fought to make. He loved Bach and Stravinsky (even quoting the opening of Stravinsky's 'Firebird Suite' mid-solo in one legendary performance), and had longed to make a record where his jazz saxophone was accompanied by strings.The resulting record is music's greatest improviser at his best. Jazz pianists Peter Martin and Adam Maness listen to select tracks (like "Just Friends" and "Summertime"), breaking down the theory behind the music to understand what makes this album great. Jazz is the foundation of the most GENIUS music in recent history: Stevie Wonder, Michael Jackson, Joni Mitchell, D'Angelo. In this popular music series, You'll Hear It, Adam and Peter break down the greatest albums of all time. These seasoned jazz pianists bring their deep musical knowledge to every joyful episode to help you hear the hidden qualities that make music AMAZING. You'll never hear music the same way again.Like the jam at the end of the show?

Former felony prosecutor Eric Faddis joins Hidden Killers Live to break down two of the most consequential trials happening in America right now—both asking the same fundamental question from different angles.Kouri Richins goes to trial February 23rd for the alleged fentanyl murder of her husband Eric. The defense has landed blows: recanting drug source, excluded experts, severed charges, intimidation allegations against the lead detective. But the prosecution has a mountain—alleged Valentine's Day poisoning attempt, housekeeper testimony about "the Michael Jackson stuff," Google searches about lethal doses, a jail letter allegedly coaching testimony, and five times the lethal dose in Eric's system.Colin Gray faces 29 felony counts including second-degree murder in Georgia. Prosecutors allege he armed his 14-year-old son with an AR-15 despite an alleged 2021 search for "how to kill your dad," an FBI visit over school shooting threats, a Christmas gift of the rifle, a text allegedly saying "the blood is on your hands," and a bedroom prosecutors describe as a shrine to the Parkland shooter. When officers arrived, Colin allegedly said two words: "I knew it."Eric Faddis walks through both sides of both cases live. The defense's strongest cards in each courtroom. The prosecution's most devastating evidence. The legal theories that make each case unique—and the accountability question that connects them.One case alleges direct action. The other alleges criminal negligence. Both ask jurors to determine when knowing becomes culpable, when enabling becomes murder, when failure to act crosses into criminal liability.Live analysis. Two trials. One veteran prosecutor on what conviction actually requires.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Two murder trials happening simultaneously—and both are asking jurors to define the boundaries of accountability.Kouri Richins stands trial February 23rd for allegedly poisoning her husband Eric with fentanyl. The defense has scored pretrial victories: a recanting drug source, excluded expert witnesses, severed financial charges. But the prosecution's evidence remains formidable—an alleged prior Valentine's Day attempt, a housekeeper testifying about fentanyl requests and "the Michael Jackson stuff," Google searches about lethal doses, a jail letter allegedly scripting family testimony, and five times the lethal dose in Eric's system.Colin Gray faces 29 felony counts in Georgia including second-degree murder for allegedly arming his son despite years of warnings. The prosecution's evidence: an alleged 2021 "how to kill your dad" search, an FBI visit over shooting threats, the Christmas gift of the AR-15, a text allegedly reading "the blood is on your hands," and what prosecutors describe as a bedroom shrine to the Parkland shooter. When officers arrived, Colin allegedly said, "I knew it."Former felony prosecutor Eric Faddis breaks down both cases with the eye of someone who's stood at that table. For Richins: How does the defense exploit a recanting witness? How does the prosecution overcome pretrial losses with volume? For Gray: How does Georgia law support charging a parent for a child's actions? What proves someone "knew" versus "should have known"?Different crimes. Different legal theories. Same fundamental question: When does knowing become culpable? When does failure to act become murder?Eric Faddis gives his honest assessment of where both trials are headed.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Two trials dominating the news. Two very different theories of murder. One former felony prosecutor explaining what conviction requires in each.Kouri Richins goes to trial February 23rd for the alleged fentanyl poisoning of her husband Eric. The defense scored pretrial wins—a recanting drug source, excluded experts, severed financial charges. But prosecutors have an alleged Valentine's Day 2022 poisoning attempt, a housekeeper who says Kouri asked for fentanyl and later requested "the Michael Jackson stuff," Google searches about lethal doses and luxury prisons, a jail letter allegedly coaching family testimony, and five times the lethal dose in Eric's system.Colin Gray faces 29 felony counts in Georgia including second-degree murder. Prosecutors allege he armed his 14-year-old son despite years of documented warnings: an alleged 2021 search for "how to kill your dad," an FBI visit over school shooting threats in 2023, a Christmas gift of the AR-15, a text allegedly saying "the blood is on your hands," and what prosecutors describe as a bedroom shrine to the Parkland shooter. Colin allegedly told arriving officers: "I knew it."Eric Faddis walks through both cases today. For Richins: How does a recanting witness affect the prosecution's case? What does the remaining evidence prove? For Gray: How does Georgia law support charging a parent with murder for a child's actions? What's the evidentiary threshold?Different crimes—alleged poisoning versus alleged negligent enabling. But the same question at the center: What does criminal accountability look like?

The Kouri Richins trial begins February 23rd—and former felony prosecutor Eric Faddis breaks down exactly what both sides are bringing to that courtroom.The defense has landed significant pretrial blows. The drug source recanted. Expert witnesses were excluded. Financial charges were severed from the murder trial. There are witness intimidation allegations against the lead detective. These aren't small wins—they're the foundation of reasonable doubt arguments that will echo through five weeks of testimony.But the prosecution's mountain remains. An alleged prior poisoning attempt on Valentine's Day 2022—Eric allegedly broke out in hives and blacked out after eating a sandwich from his truck. A housekeeper who says Kouri personally requested fentanyl and later asked for "the Michael Jackson stuff." Google searches allegedly about lethal doses and luxury prisons. A jail cell letter allegedly coaching her mother and brother on what to say. Forged signatures on insurance documents. And the toxicology that started it all: more than five times the lethal dose of fentanyl in Eric's system.Eric Faddis walks through how these pieces fit together—and where they don't. How does the defense exploit a recanting witness? How do prosecutors overcome excluded experts with volume of evidence? What do the Google searches actually prove? What does the "Walk the Dog" letter do to a jury?This analysis also examines the Colin Gray case in Georgia—a father facing 29 felony counts for allegedly arming his son despite years of warnings. Different crime, different theory, same question: When does knowing become culpable?Eric Faddis gives his honest assessment of where the Richins trial is headed and what conviction actually requires.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Former felony prosecutor Eric Faddis joins True Crime Today for a deep dive into two of the most significant criminal trials happening in the country — the Kouri Richins fentanyl murder case and the Colin Gray parental accountability trial.The Richins case begins February 23rd with the defense riding pretrial wins: a recanting drug source, excluded prosecution experts, and severed financial charges. But the state has an alleged prior poisoning attempt, Carmen Lauber's expected testimony that Kouri requested fentanyl and "the Michael Jackson stuff," Google searches allegedly about lethal doses and luxury prisons, forged insurance documents, a jail cell letter allegedly coaching family testimony, and five times the lethal dose in Eric's system.In Georgia, Colin Gray faces 29 felony counts including second-degree murder. Prosecutors say he gave his 14-year-old son an AR-15 despite alleged FBI warnings, school shooting threats, and a text from Colt allegedly saying "the blood is on your hands." Prosecutors allege a Parkland shrine sat in the bedroom. When officers arrived, Colin allegedly said, "I knew it."Faddis analyzes every angle of both cases — defense strategy, prosecution evidence, legal theories, and his honest assessment of where each is headed.#KouriRichins #ColinGray #EricRichins #ColtGray #FentanylMurder #SchoolShooting #TrueCrimeToday #EricFaddis #HiddenKillers #TrueCrimeJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Former felony prosecutor Eric Faddis takes on two of the biggest criminal cases in the country in one comprehensive interview — the Kouri Richins fentanyl murder trial and the Colin Gray parental accountability case.In the Richins case, the defense has won real pretrial battles: a recanting drug source, excluded experts, severed financial charges, and witness intimidation allegations against the lead detective. But the prosecution has an alleged prior poisoning attempt, a firsthand witness who says Kouri requested fentanyl and "the Michael Jackson stuff," damning Google searches, forged insurance documents, a jail cell letter allegedly coaching testimony, and more than five times the lethal dose of fentanyl in Eric's system.In the Colin Gray trial, prosecutors presented what they allege is years of warning signs — an alleged 2021 search for "how to kill your dad," an FBI visit over school shooting threats in 2023, the alleged Christmas gift of an AR-15, a text allegedly about blood on his hands, a reported Parkland shrine, and Colin's alleged words when officers arrived: "I knew it." The defense says Colt hid his plans. The prosecution says the alleged evidence was visible inside the home.Faddis breaks down both sides of both cases, explains the legal theories at play, and gives his honest assessment of where each trial is headed.#KouriRichins #ColinGray #EricRichins #ColtGray #FentanylMurder #SchoolShooting #EricFaddis #ProsecutorAnalysis #HiddenKillers #TrueCrimeJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Nearly $2 million in life insurance policies taken out without Eric's knowledge. A confrontation in 2020 when he discovered the financial fraud. An alleged failed attempt on Valentine's Day 2022. Then his death eighteen days later.FBI behavioral analyst Robin Dreeke has spent his career profiling individuals capable of sustained deception and violence. His "Life Arc" framework examines the pressures, patterns, and escalating behaviors that shape someone's trajectory toward harm. In this episode, we apply that lens to Kouri Richins—using the prosecution's own timeline to ask what someone trained in threat assessment would have seen before March 4, 2022.Prosecutors allege Kouri obtained fentanyl on February 11th, then contacted her supplier again on February 26th reportedly asking for "something stronger"—allegedly calling it "some of the Michael Jackson stuff." Robin breaks down what that procurement escalation signals about psychological state, and why a failed first attempt typically changes the risk calculus rather than stopping someone.The behavioral foundation goes deeper. Years of alleged mortgage fraud, falsified bank statements, and money laundered through multiple accounts—all while maintaining an outward appearance of normalcy. When Eric discovered the financial deception in 2020 and consulted a divorce attorney, how did that shift Kouri's baseline? Robin explains the internal transition from sustained deception to something more dangerous.With jury selection complete and trial beginning February 23rd, this conversation provides the behavioral framework for understanding the patterns prosecutors will present. Not speculation about guilt—that's for twelve jurors over five weeks. But the psychological architecture that allegedly made what happened predictable to anyone trained to see it.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

D-Lo & KC spend hour three talking Kings, Michael Jackson and more.

Two of the most significant criminal trials in the country are unfolding simultaneously — and former felony prosecutor Eric Faddis is here to break down both. The Kouri Richins murder trial begins February 23rd in Summit County, Utah, where prosecutors say she poisoned her husband Eric with a lethal dose of fentanyl mixed into a Moscow Mule. In Georgia, Colin Gray faces 29 felony counts including second-degree murder after prosecutors allege he armed his 14-year-old son with an AR-style rifle despite years of alleged warnings from the FBI, law enforcement, and child welfare officials.In this comprehensive interview, Faddis dismantles both cases from both sides — starting with the Richins defense's strongest pretrial wins and ending with why Colin Gray may be facing an unwinnable fight.The Richins case has been bleeding evidence for months. Robert Crozier, the man prosecutors called their key link in the fentanyl supply chain, has signed a sworn affidavit recanting his police statement — now saying the pills were OxyContin, not fentanyl. They were never recovered or tested. Lead Detective Jeff O'Driscoll faces witness intimidation allegations after text messages allegedly showed him threatening a witness with arrest. Judge Mrazik excluded the prosecution's domestic violence expert, limited FBI profiler Molly Amman's testimony, and twice denied bringing Kouri's 26 financial crime charges into the murder trial.But the prosecution's hand is loaded. They allege a prior Valentine's Day 2022 poisoning attempt where two friends reportedly say Eric called them saying his wife tried to kill him. Housekeeper Carmen Lauber is expected to testify that Kouri directly asked her to buy fentanyl twice — and after the first alleged attempt, requested "the Michael Jackson stuff." Google searches allegedly found on Kouri's phone include queries about lethal fentanyl doses, luxury prisons, insurance payouts, and deleting digital records. A letter found in her jail cell allegedly outlines false testimony for family members. A handwriting expert is prepared to testify that insurance document signatures were forged. And the medical examiner found more than five times the lethal dose of fentanyl in Eric's system.In the Colin Gray trial, prosecutors presented what they allege is years of warning signs: Colt's alleged 2021 search for "how to kill your dad," an FBI visit in 2023 over school shooting threats with instructions to reportedly restrict gun access, the alleged Christmas gift of the rifle seven months later, and by August 2024, Colt allegedly texting his father, "Whenever something happens, just know the blood is on your hands," and asking him to buy 150 rounds of ammunition. Prosecutors allege Colt had a shrine to the Parkland shooter in his bedroom, was reportedly hearing voices, allegedly shoved his mother when she tried to take the gun, and was taking her prescription Zoloft without medical oversight. When officers arrived at the Gray home, Colin allegedly said two words: "I knew it."The defense argues Colt hid his plans. But the prosecution says the evidence was visible inside the home Colin controlled. Faddis explains the Georgia legal framework that charges cruelty to children as the basis for second-degree murder — a higher bar than the Crumbley manslaughter convictions — and gives his honest assessment of both cases as they head toward their most critical phases.#KouriRichins #ColinGray #EricRichins #ColtGray #FentanylMurder #SchoolShooting #ParentAccountability #EricFaddis #HiddenKillers #TrueCrimePodcastJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

The defense drew blood pretrial. Now the prosecution gets to show the jury what four years of investigation produced — and former prosecutor Eric Faddis says some of this evidence may be unexplainable for the defense.The state's case reportedly begins with Valentine's Day 2022 — an alleged prior poisoning attempt where Kouri Richins is accused of lacing Eric's sandwich with fentanyl. Two friends say he called them saying his wife tried to poison him. A life insurance policy had allegedly gone into effect ten days before. Then came Eric's death months later — more than five times the lethal dose of fentanyl in his system, allegedly mixed into a Moscow Mule Kouri made him.Carmen Lauber, the housekeeper, is expected to testify that Kouri directly asked her to source fentanyl twice and allegedly requested "the Michael Jackson stuff" after the Valentine's Day incident. Unsealed warrants reportedly show Kouri also asked a handyman to procure fentanyl and propofol. Google searches allegedly found on her phone include queries about lethal fentanyl doses, luxury prisons, insurance payout timelines, and deleting digital records.Prosecutors also have a letter allegedly found in her jail cell coaching family on testimony, an orange notebook with her account of the day Eric died that allegedly contradicts other evidence, and a handwriting expert prepared to testify that insurance document signatures were forged. Faddis breaks down how the prosecution ties all of it together — and whether the defense has any answer.#KouriRichins #RichinsTrial #EricRichins #FentanylMurder #CarmenLauber #ProsecutionCase #TrueCrimeToday #EricFaddis #HiddenKillers #TrueCrimeJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

The pretrial wins belonged to the defense. But the prosecution is walking into the Kouri Richins trial with a case they've spent four years constructing — and it starts with a prior poisoning attempt the jury will hear alongside the murder charge.Former prosecutor Eric Faddis breaks down the state's strongest cards. Prosecutors allege Kouri laced Eric's sandwich with fentanyl on Valentine's Day 2022, months before his death. Two friends reportedly say Eric called them saying his wife tried to poison him. A new life insurance policy had allegedly gone into effect ten days earlier. His sister told authorities Eric said if anything happened to him, Kouri was responsible.Carmen Lauber is expected to testify that Kouri directly asked her to buy fentanyl twice — and after the Valentine's Day incident, allegedly requested "the Michael Jackson stuff." Unsealed warrants reportedly show Kouri also asked a handyman to source fentanyl and propofol. The digital evidence includes Google searches allegedly about lethal fentanyl doses, luxury prisons, insurance payouts, and deleting digital records. A jail cell letter allegedly coached family members on testimony. And a handwriting expert is expected to testify that signatures on insurance documents paying Kouri millions were not Eric's.Faddis explains how the prosecution connects five times the lethal dose, a prior attempt, an insurance timeline, and a Moscow Mule into one narrative — and whether 100-plus witnesses and 1,000 exhibits represent overwhelming evidence or strategic overreach.#KouriRichins #RichinsTrial #EricRichins #CarmenLauber #FentanylMurder #ProsecutionEvidence #MichaelJacksonStuff #EricFaddis #HiddenKillers #TrueCrimeJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

The defense landed pretrial blows. But the prosecution is walking into the Kouri Richins murder trial with over 100 potential witnesses, more than 1,000 exhibits, and five weeks to lay out what they say is an overwhelming case for premeditated murder. Defense attorney and former prosecutor Eric Faddis breaks down the state's strongest evidence — and explains why some of it may be impossible to overcome.Start with Valentine's Day 2022. Prosecutors allege Kouri laced Eric's sandwich with fentanyl months before his death. He reportedly broke out in hives and lost consciousness. Two friends say Eric called them afterward saying his wife tried to poison him. His sister told authorities he believed Kouri had spiked his drink years earlier in Greece and told family if anything happened to him, she was to blame. A new life insurance policy had gone into effect just ten days before that alleged attempt. If the jury hears all of that alongside the murder charge, prosecutors aren't just alleging one poisoning — they're alleging a pattern.Then there's Carmen Lauber — the housekeeper who says Kouri directly asked her to buy fentanyl twice in early 2022, that she delivered pills to the property, and that after the Valentine's Day attempt, Kouri asked for something stronger — specifically "the Michael Jackson stuff," a reference to propofol. Crozier may have recanted, but Lauber's alleged firsthand account of Kouri's direct requests could be the prosecution's most powerful witness.The digital evidence is staggering. Prosecutors reportedly have Kouri's post-death Google searches including queries about lethal fentanyl doses, luxury prisons, life insurance payout timelines, deleting text messages and iCloud accounts, lie detector tests, and FBI involvement. Unsealed search warrants also allegedly revealed she asked a handyman to procure both fentanyl and propofol weeks before Eric's death — meaning the state may show she was allegedly sourcing drugs from multiple people simultaneously.Add the "Walk the Dog" letter found in Kouri's jail cell — described by prosecutors as outlining false testimony for her mother and brother — and five pages from an orange notebook prosecutors call her "firsthand account" of the day Eric died, with details that allegedly contradict other evidence. Handwriting expert Matt Throckmorton is expected to testify that signatures on insurance and financial documents were not Eric's — potentially merging fraud and murder motive into one narrative.Faddis explains how a prosecutor ties five times the lethal dose of fentanyl, a prior attempt, an insurance timeline, and a Moscow Mule into a closing argument that leaves no other reasonable explanation. The defense made noise pretrial. Now the prosecution gets to show what they've been building for four years.#KouriRichins #EricRichins #RichinsTrial #FentanylMurder #CarmenLauber #ProsecutionEvidence #ValentinesDayPoisoning #ForgedDocuments #EricFaddis #HiddenKillersJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Did we have it all wrong the whole time? Gareth Cliff and Ben Karpinski start their day diving headfirst into the Epstein Files and the explosive question of whether Michael Jackson may have been a protector of children, not a predator. Dr Hanan joins the show as the team challenge the long-held myth that women are naturally more empathetic — the science might surprise you. Mash steps in to unpack cognitive development and how “TikTok slop” is hijacking attention and rewarding dopamine addiction. And in an era of outrage, algorithms, and misinformation, is telling the truth harder than ever? Investigative journalist Lourensa Eckard weighs in from the front lines of truth after more than a decade in the field. The Real Network

In this episode, Angela interviews attorney Eido Walny about estate planning lessons learned from the mistakes of celebrities. Walny emphasizes that despite their fame and wealth, celebrities face similar estate planning challenges as everyone else, and their mistakes can offer valuable lessons for all. He shares insights into the estate planning issues of celebrities such as Prince, Heath Ledger, Robin Williams, Michael Jackson, and Warren Burger. Key Takeaways

Savage Season is all about finding the real ones — and Maggie Doogan is exactly that. In this episode of SportsLifeTalk: You Got Next, we sit down with the “Richmond Rifle” herself — a 6'2 senior forward out of Richmond University who has been on an absolute tear, averaging 23+ points per game and proving she's a complete two-way force in the A-10.B Jones sets the tone with a legendary intro (including a “deadliest spider” comparison that Maggie takes like a champ), and from there the episode becomes a masterclass in confidence, culture, and competitive edge.We kick things off with Moment of Truth (two truths and a lie), where Maggie reveals she's a fourth-generation college athlete, the oldest of four siblings, and keeps the vibes rolling right into our call-to-action run that reminds the SLT family what this platform is built for: exposure, storytelling, and lifting the women's game up — one savage at a time.Then it's time for the SLT Initiation, where Maggie shares her Top 5 artists (showing real range): Taylor Swift, Morgan Wallen, Billy Joel, Michael Jackson, and Cody Johnson. She breaks down why she rocks with Spider-Man (because… spiders), and taps into her mindset with a calm, grounded pregame theme song rooted in worship — because killers don't always show up loud… sometimes they show up locked in.Maggie also explains the story behind her jersey number 44, a family connection tied to her grandfather and her basketball roots, and she puts us on to a Richmond favorite: The Continental, a campus-area spot where she's keeping it simple with a chicken Caesar salad, but makes sure everyone knows the burgers go crazy too.But the heart of the episode is The First 48 — the night Maggie dropped 48 points in a historic three-overtime win at Davidson. She walks us through how it felt, when she realized it was special, and how adrenaline took over when the game demanded more. The best part? She admits she doesn't even fully remember the details — she just clicked into a different mode. That's what real “Mamba Moments” sound like.We also get into the bigger picture: why Maggie stayed at Richmond instead of chasing portal hype or NIL noise. Her answer is real: she chose a place she could be happy for four years, a program that felt like home, and a journey she wanted to finish with her people. She's focused on winning, enjoying the moment, and letting everything else come when it's time.As the episode closes, Maggie shares what's next: continuing her career professionally (in the U.S. or overseas) and eventually stepping into coaching — with a future that feels bigger than basketball. She also shouts out her team and calls out a teammate we need to get on the show next: Rachel Ullstrom, a shooter she describes as unreal.This one isn't just hoops — it's legacy, leadership, and proof that Savage Season is built for players like Maggie Doogan.

One of the major revelations from the Epstein files is that Michael Jackson appears to have been framed by the very people who WERE abusing children. In the 1990s, Jackson was accused of sexually abusing children. One case led to a civil settlement, which Michael Jackson said that he wishes he had not done. Another did lead to a criminal trial and he was acquitted on all charges.

In this episode, I sit down with cultural geographer Rashad Shabazz to dissect the 1984 classic starring Prince — and ask the uncomfortable questions.Is The Kid a tortured genius… or a young man replaying generational trauma?Is the final performance redemption — or dominance?And what does Minneapolis represent in a film about Black masculinity, ambition, and control?We unpack race, space, violence, desire, artistic genius, and the myth of upward mobility — all through the lens of one of the most iconic soundtracks of the 1980s.This is Purple Rain as you've never heard it discussed before.

Gio and Jerry (filling in for Boomer) lead with Tony Clark resigning from the MLBPA due to an inappropriate relationship with his sister-in-law, a situation worsened by a quiet sports calendar and the looming work stoppage.

Plus, the Michael Jordan video involving a kid's shirt and spilled ice, and the Michael Jackson estate's angry with Sexxy Red rapping over the "Beat It" instrumental.
