Podcasts about Midnight

Her family came from Ecuador, where the dead were never truly gone—where they stepped into kitchens and bedrooms with the same ease as memory. Her grandmother saw them. Her mother felt them. Her aunts carried the same knowing. But she resisted it… until the day resistance no longer mattered. At fourteen, a simple card game cracked something open. Predictions became realities. Casual words became fate. And one truth she should never have spoken unfolded exactly as she said it would. The gift had surfaced—and it would not go back to sleep. But the real awakening came years later, on an ordinary night among friends, when something inside her shifted without warning. Past lives surfaced. Hidden wounds rose to the surface. She spoke truths she had no way of knowing—except that she did. It wasn't intuition. It was clarity. A switch flipping on. And the dead noticed. We explore a lineage shaped by the unseen, a gift strengthened across generations, and the unnerving moment a woman realized she wasn't just sensing the other side… she was being acknowledged by it. #SpiritualAwakening #AncestralGift #PsychicLineage #MediumStories #EcuadorParanormal #HauntedHeritage #PsychicMedium #PastLivesRevealed #SpiritCommunication #UnexplainedPhenomena Love real ghost stories?

Some hauntings linger in old stone houses. Others cling to attics, staircases, or forgotten rooms. But every so often, a haunting chooses a person—and once it does, it doesn't seem interested in letting go. For Sarah, the first encounter came before she even understood the concept of a ghost: a man sitting on the staircase of her family's 400-year-old mining house in Cornwall, two dogs quietly at his side. Solid. Present. Silent. She stepped around him as casually as a child walks past a family member. Only later did she realize no one else ever saw him. Touches. Lights. Migraines. Names spoken in her mind. Objects vanishing. Spirits confirmed by mediums who knew nothing of her experiences. And everywhere she went, the same unnerving feeling: She was being noticed. We explore the unsettling possibility that the haunting was never tied to a place at all…but to Sarah herself. #HauntedLife #SensitiveToSpirits #CornwallGhosts #ParanormalExperiences #LivingWithGhosts #ParanormalActivity #SpiritualAttachment #GhostEncounters #HauntedSinceChildhood #ShadowWatchers  Love real ghost stories?

Can studying fine art keep you safe? According to today's guest Amy Herman it can.  Lawyer and art historian, Herman uses works of art to "sharpen observation, analysis, and communication skills. By showing people how to look closely at painting, sculpture, and photography, she helps them hone their visual intelligence to recognize the most pertinent and useful information as well as recognize biases that impede decision making." Amy has trained police officers, doctors, military members, and special operatives to see the world in a richer way through observing art—and in turn, use that skill to improve their effectiveness on the job. On this episode from our archives, Amy shares her secrets. Find Amy Herman on Instagram or at her website.  ***The Bittersweet Life podcast has been on the air for an impressive 10+ years!

On this episode of The Other Side of Midnight, Lionel tackles political and social absurdity, from New York City's plan to stop homeless encampment sweeps, deemed an acceleration of societal destruction, to the rocky Congressional campaign of a "full tilt crackers" Kennedy heir. Lionel dissects the media chaos, including a CNN star's gaffe identifying a pipe bomber as "white", and the alleged war between MSNBC figures. Callers bring expert insight on crucial topics, ranging from complex condo occupancy laws and invalid insurance to the linguistics of obscure words like "dentiloquist". Plus, dive into the speculation surrounding Nicki Minaj's political stance and its potential link to securing a pardon for her registered sex offender husband. It's a late-night journey where the conversation ends only when the monkey's dead. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

This week, a continuation of our series called “In The Shadow Of…”, where we compare obscure bands to a mainstream act. This is not about copycats, but more about artists with similar vibes, a shared sonic landscape, or whose songwriting and playing styles are sympatico. This is another band that is near and dear to both of your humble hosts. A band that is synonymous with the word “Rock n' Roll”. A band of outlaws, rebels, and riffage; the iconic MOTÖRHEAD! Join us as we discover other bands that were influenced and inspired by England's loudest band.What's this InObscuria thing? We're a podcast that exhumes obscure Rock n' Punk n' Metal and puts them in one of 3 categories: the Lost, the Forgotten, or the Should Have Beens. This is not a statement about bands trying to copy one another, but more that they have a shared sound and vision. It's been said that there is no originality left in rock n' roll and also been stated that imitation is the sincerest form of flattery. As always, we hope we turn you onto something new!Songs this week include:City Kings – “Cherry” from Steel Rock N Roll (2023)Asomvel – “Louder And Louder” from Born To Rock ‘n' Roll(2024)Newsted – “Soldierhead” from Metal - EP (2013)Gunslinger – “Smoke Wagon” from Amped Up (2025)Whitespade – “Below The Law” from Whitespade (2022)Girlschool – “Bomber” from St. Valentine's Day Massacre - EP (1981)Chrome Division – “Booze, Broads, & Beelzebub” from Booze, Broads, & Beelzebub(2008)Brass Against – “Ace Of Spades” from Ace Of Spades - Single(2025)Please subscribe everywhere that you listen to podcasts!Visit us: https://inobscuria.com/https://www.facebook.com/InObscuriahttps://x.com/inobscuriahttps://www.instagram.com/inobscuria/Buy cool stuff with our logo on it: InObscuria StoreCheck out Robert's amazing fire sculptures and metal workings here: http://flamewerx.com/If you'd like to check out Kevin's band THE SWEAR, take a listen on all streaming services or pick up a digital copy of their latest release here: https://theswear.bandcamp.com/If you want to hear Robert and Kevin's band from the late 90s – early 00s BIG JACK PNEUMATIC, check it out here: https://bigjackpnuematic.bandcamp.com/

This post contains affiliate links, which means I may earn a small commission at no extra cost to you.What if your romance career didn't hinge on going viral—but on quietly writing your way to 118 books and counting? In this episode, I'm chatting with holiday romance queen Samantha Chase about sustainable careers, Christmas comfort reads, and why she'll always write a Christmas book.We talk about what it really looks like to treat writing like a job (in the best way), how Samantha built a wide, library-friendly backlist instead of relying on Kindle Unlimited, and why she's more interested in consistency than fame. Then we dive into her newest holiday romance, A Holly Brown Christmas, plus a whole sleigh-full of her backlist Christmas books and a couple of festive recs from Lauren Blakely.

Some hauntings don't cling to houses — they cling to people. They slip into a life quietly, rearranging objects, bending routines, and whispering their presence into the smallest moments… until years later, you realize they never left. What began in a simple Iowa City apartment surrounded by headstones evolved into something far more personal: a force that followed him through duty stations, breakups, new homes, and even fatherhood. It learned him. Adjusted to him. Grew bolder with every move. And no matter how many miles he put between himself and the past, the past kept finding him — opening doors, rearranging belongings, speaking in empty houses, and watching his loved ones in the dark. This is not the story of a place. It is the story of an attachment. One that has waited decades. One that has grown patient. One that still isn't finished. #paranormalattachment #hauntedlife #entityfollows #unexplainedactivity #darkpresence #lifelonghaunting #shadowwatcher #paranormalstories #thegravetalks #hauntingsurvivor Love real ghost stories?

Some hauntings enter a life suddenly — a place, a whisper, a shadow that doesn't belong. But others begin long before a child ever opens their eyes. His story isn't about a house, a moment, or a single terrifying night. It's about a presence that threaded itself through his entire life, shifting from guide to manipulator, from influence to intrusion, from whispering voice to something far more invasive. As he grew older, the darkness didn't fade. It adapted. It learned him. And when he finally tried to pull away, it reminded him that some spirits don't wait to be invited… and they don't leave when asked. This is the account of a man who survived being watched, shaped, and hunted by an intelligence that always seemed one step ahead. Not a haunting. Not a coincidence. Something ancient. Something patient. Something that believed he belonged to it. #demonicattachment #paranormalencounter #darkentity #longtermhaunting #spiritualwarfare #possessionsigns #nightterrorstories #shadowedpresence #hauntingsurvivor #ghosts Love real ghost stories?

Our listeners wanted to know about the legacy of the Troll raid. We've been killing those poor saps a lot -- just about every expansion in either raid or dungeon form, in fact, to the extent that "the Troll raid" is almost a meme. Midnight may be bringing us another chance to murder a whole bunch more Trolls, with rumors swirling about islands off the coast near Zul'Aman -- which, incidentally, was the Troll raid for The Burning Crusade.We start off with a brief recap of the myriad of times in the past when we defeated one branch of trolls or another in a variety of settings. Of course, with such a broad topic, the rabbit hole goes deep. Matt and Joe discuss the Loa, notable troll heroes like Zul'jin, and the future of Trollkind. Since we're going into Midnight without a Troll raid as such, they also speculate a little on how it could come to pass before the expansion is out.If you enjoy the show, please support us on Patreon, where you can get these episodes early and ad-free!

Hey Midnighters,Episode 183 is overflowing with pure fire. This week, Drumcode takes center stage. It's one of those rare episodes where the label's presence is undeniable, driving the energy and shaping the pulse of the entire hour.We kick off with AdamK x Vikthor ft. MC Stretch and their commanding “Silence + The Sound,” setting the tone for a Drumcode-heavy journey featuring Enzo Monza, Alex Stein, A.D.H.S., HOF, and a killer close from HI-LO with “NYC TO AMSTERDAM.” And of course, Adam Beyer himself delivers with “We Don't Say Please,” a track that hits with authority.But it's not just about Drumcode, there are key moments outside the label that balance the set: Shay De Castro's “Go Insane” on Set About Music brings tension, and the Drumsauw remix of “Algorhythm” by Derek Ryan & ManyNames goes dark and deep.One standout flashback: Cosmic Gate's “Exploration Of Space.” Timeless, and still so effective.This episode is for the real heads, loaded with exclusives, crafted for movement, and meant to be played loud.

This haunting began in an ordinary rental home in Alberta, a house with nothing remarkable in its history… yet something deeply wrong in its foundation. A five-year-old girl walked in and felt it immediately: the basement wasn't just a room. It was a presence. A watcher. A boundary she was never meant to cross. And then came the lights. Not the soft, drifting orbs of folklore—but sharp, electric white spheres trailing neon blue, moving with speed and intention across a darkened doorway. Night after night, they appeared. Night after night, they watched. Night after night, something territorial made it clear: You don't belong here. Upstairs offered relief. Outside did not. A mist in the backyard followed her steps, hovered at the edges of her sight, gathered beneath a willow tree that felt older—and darker—than the yard itself. As an adult, she still remembers the pressure in the air. The way the shadows moved wrong. The feeling of being known by something unseen. Some hauntings fade. This one never did. #RealGhostStories #TerritorialSpirits #HauntedHouses #ParanormalEncounters #BasementHaunting #Orbs #SupernaturalStories #TheGraveTalks #HauntedCanada #UnexplainedMysteries  Love real ghost stories?

In a fading mining town in New Mexico, the old Econo Lodge was the kind of place everyone knew—sun-bleached, rundown, and filled with stories no one wanted to admit were true. As kids, the hotel's locked third floor was nothing more than a dare. But years later, when he and a group of thrill-seeking teens explored the abandoned property at midnight, the rumors proved themselves horrifyingly real. A little girl's shadow—solid, detailed, unmistakably human—watched them from a dark hallway before melting out of sight. It was the kind of sighting you try to explain away… until someone else tells you they saw her too.   He never went back. The building is gone now. But whatever lived on that third floor? It didn't disappear with the demolition. Some stories cling to the living—and some shadows follow. #RealGhostStories #HauntedHotel #EconoLodgeGhost #NewMexicoParanormal #ShadowChild #UrbanExploring #CreepyEncounters #GhostStoryPodcast #ParanormalInvestigation #DesertHauntings Love real ghost stories?

Markus Thielen, 10x Research, predicts an imminent crypto bear market and up to a 60% correction in 2026, Is the crypto bull run over? In this episode of Markets Outlook, Markus Thielen, founder of 10x Research, joins CoinDesk's Jennifer Sanasie, to discuss why we might be heading into a bear market in 2026. Thielen argues that US stocks historically perform poorly during midterm election cycles. Combining this historical trend with the "institutional fatigue" visible in recent ETF outflows, he breaks down the data suggesting a potential 60% correction is on the horizon. We also discuss the recent shift in "Whale" accumulation behavior and why the "digital gold" narrative is currently struggling to keep pace with physical gold performance. - Break the cycle of exploitation.

Some hauntings cling to a house. This one clings to people. For her, it started with a name spoken in an empty hallway and a cold hand that seemed to learn her every emotion. It wasn't tied to a basement or a cursed object. It was tied to her — touching her face, combing through her hair, throwing violent tantrums whenever she dared to pull away. Friends saw it. Dates felt it. One woke up gasping, certain something invisible was sitting on his chest. Her best friend swore it stood at the stairs in a black hood, tall enough to scrape the ceiling… and absolutely furious she was there. For him, it began years earlier in Tulare, California. Snakes in the corner. “People outside.” A glowing grandmother at the dresser the night after she died. Radios shutting off by themselves. Cabinets standing wide open at 3AM. Then came the static blast from a dead record player… and the black-robed figure that appeared during sleep paralysis, staring from the edge of the room like it had been waiting a very, very long time. Are these two people haunted by different entities…or the same kind of thing that never needed an address in the first place? #realghoststories #haunted #shadowpeople #demonicpresence #sleepparalysis #paranormalpodcast #trueghoststory #attachedspirit #supernaturalencounters #creepyencounters #ghoststoriesonline #spiritualwarfare Love real ghost stories?

Is gold beating bitcoin in 2025? Mark Connors of Risk Dimensions argues that bitcoin is simply "too young" to rival gold's centuries of established infrastructure. With BTC down approximately 12% and gold rallying 60% in the past year, is gold winning the race as a safe haven asset in 2025?

On this episode of The AIE Podcast… We have floor tanking and other WoW noobs… um, news Happy Lifeday, AIE December, where the attendance is optional and the fun is mandatory LOTRO brings YULE Kingdoms of Harad And, join us for our last show of the year All that and more coming up right now… Podcast Audio Raw Video http://youtu.be/TZ8A0NVJjUM Open Welcome to episode #440 of the podcast celebrating you, the Alea Iacta Est gaming community, the die has been podcast. This is Tetsemi: To my left is Mewkow: – (catch phrase here). And to my right is Mkallah: (hey guys, there is leftover caramel apple pie in the guild kitchen). This week, we have a wrap up of what is going on for December in AIE and gaming in general. Ok, we'll be digging into what we have been up to shortly, but first, let's cover this week's news… AIE News Community Mandatory Fun Nights Where the fun is mandatory but the attendance is not. Sunday – Destiny 2 8:30 pm Eastern Monday – GW2 9:30 pm Eastern Monday – STO 10:00 pm Eastern Tuesday – SWTOR 9:00 pm Eastern Wednesday – HFO Mythic+ Mayhem (WoW) 8:00 pm Eastern Friday – ESO 9:00 pm Eastern Saturday – LotRO 8:30 pm Eastern Saturday – FFXIV (Maps) 9:30 pm Eastern Saturday – Noob Raid (WoW) 11:00 pm Eastern Streaming and Guild Podcast News We have a ton of AIE member podcasts! Want to know where to find them? Look no further than here- New Overlords Podcast (Max and Sema) https://www.newoverlords.com Boards and Swords (Chris and Philip) https://boardsandswords.com/blog?category=Boards%20%26%20Swords Dr. Gameology ( Dr. Daniel Kaufmann ) https://drgameology.com/ STO – Fleet Action Report (Grebog and Nikodas) https://www.youtube.com/@fleetactionreport A Podcast Reborn: A FFXIV Community Podcast (Brandon aka Old Man Franks, Meagan, and Rho) – NSFL https://www.bonusroll.gg/directory/a-podcast-reborn/ WoW Noob Raid is on winter break until January 3, 2026 so Dankinia can get a bit of relief from the horrible jokes the group likes to torment her with. During 2025, Dankinia demonstrated her floor tanking abilities 172 times. While she is out, Celindre will be leading Noob Raid – After Dark during the normal 11pm EST time slot each Saturday. In WoW, Midnight – the next expansion – has a release date of March 2nd with the pre-patch release on Jan 13. Anyone with an Epic Edition pre-order will have early access – expected Feb 27 according to WoWHead. Players with early access will also be able to use the new Player Housing feature as of Dec 2. This will be a bit complicated for AIE and our co-guilds, which are one of several ways to join “neighborhoods” for player housing. Every player’s Warband gets two houses – one Horde and one Alliance, but any alt can access either home. There will be open neighborhoods that are server wide, and Guilds can create private neighborhoods open to anyone in that guild. Groups of friends (such as Raid Teams) can also create charters for their own neighborhoods. We will have neighb orhoods for all the co-guilds (probably) but haven’t assigned which officer will be assigned to which yet. Currently, in addition to the Legion Remix event (speed leveling/transmog/mounts etc), the WoW Anniversary is active in Retail WoW, with a rep & xp boost. Visiting the Anniversary Celebration at the Caverns of Time will provide an additional buff. Rep is good – because it’s one of the ways to obtain decor for Player Housing. SWTOR SWTOR will see a holiday release of update 7.8 entitled “Pursuit of Ruin”. It will include a new story chapter, a new type of Dynamic Encounter, and a new stronghold (player housing). That’s not to mention Life Day festivities, with the snow balls and the wookiee hugging. Also, for the first year ever, we will be trying out a new guild event during the evenings between Christmas and New Years. Stay tuned to discord for more info on that! ESO MFN in ESO generally takes the month of December off, but expect to find a couple of people hanging out at the normal time on Friday nights though the holidays. Attendance will be sporadic but feel free to reach out if anyone would like company while running the holiday events in game. FFXIV Patch 7.4 comes December 16th. Main Scenario – Into the Mist Raid Dungeon – The Arcadion: Heavyweight Division Variant Dungeon – The Merchant’s Tale New Dungeon – Mistwake New Trial – Hell on Rails New Unreal Trial – Tsukuyomi’s Pain (Unreal) New Frontline Campaign – Worqor Chirteh Weapon Enhancement Quests – Phantom Weapons Inconceivably Further Hildibrand Adventures Manderville Gold Saucer GATE – Air Force One (The Cieldalaes) Cosmic Exploration: Oizys and Tool Enhancement Quests – Cosmic Tools Strategy Board – Raid explanations but better Glamour Update – Unlocked all types! New Theme Settings – Clear Green and Clear White Mac support (Ventura ends Jan 27, Tahoe now supported) Save 50% on Collector's Edition Digital Upgrades Until December 7 New ridiculous hotpot mount (It flies) And irregular tomestones are active now until 7.4 is live. Fanfest is happening where Blizzcon is normally, April 24/25th. Cookbook #2 is out! LOTRO New expansion “Kingdoms of Harad” as of right now is scheduled to be released on December 3rd. The instance cluster for the expansion is expected to be delayed, which means this gives a chance to level up to the new level cap and get a group together and look at it as a kinship.

Markus Thielen, 10x Research, predicts an imminent crypto bear market and up to a 60% correction in 2026, Is the crypto bull run over? In this episode of Markets Outlook, Markus Thielen, founder of 10x Research, joins CoinDesk's Jennifer Sanasie, to discuss why we might be heading into a bear market in 2026. Thielen argues that US stocks historically perform poorly during midterm election cycles. Combining this historical trend with the "institutional fatigue" visible in recent ETF outflows, he breaks down the data suggesting a potential 60% correction is on the horizon. We also discuss the recent shift in "Whale" accumulation behavior and why the "digital gold" narrative is currently struggling to keep pace with physical gold performance. - Break the cycle of exploitation.

Some hauntings strike once and disappear. Others dig in quietly, threading themselves through a life until you can't tell where memory ends and something else begins. For him, the signs were there long before he had a name for fear — a woman waiting at the bottom of the stairs, figures that looked solid until they blinked out of existence, and a crying girl who sat beside his bed night after night, never lifting her face. But what happens when those encounters don't fade with childhood… and instead grow more intelligent? From shadows that stared straight through him to a moment overseas when a temple full of unseen sorrow nearly brought him to his knees, his life has been marked by things that behave nothing like imagination. And the moment he thought he'd escaped it — in a crowded college thousands of miles from home — something stepped into view again, reminding him that distance means nothing when you're the one being followed. And the most unsettling question isn't what he kept seeing…It's why it keeps finding him. #paranormal #ghoststories #realghoststories #haunting #supernatural #apparition #shadowpeople #creepystory #trueghoststory #paranormalencounters #realhaunting #ghostencounter Love real ghost stories?
