When the luxury liner SS Morro Castle erupted in flames off the New Jersey coast in 1934, it left behind 137 dead, a captain's corpse that vanished before it could be examined, and a heroic radio operator whose criminal past suggested he may have started the fire himself. | #WDRadio June 14, 2026==========HOUR ONE: Jeannie Saffin already had a tough life, being born with a birth defect that stunted her mental growth, leaving her with the mind of a child, never getting married and having kids, never dating… but that all pales in comparison to how she died: bursting into flames for no apparent reason. Was Jeannie Saffin the victim of spontaneous human combustion? (The Spontaneous Combustion of Jeannie Saffin) *** Sometimes it's easy to get a girl to go out with you – just be polite and ask. Some men resort to cheesy pickup lines thinking it will help their chances. But one man chose to call upon a woman in a very unusual way… by purchasing a gravestone. (Pitching Woo With a Tombstone) *** If a man demands his girlfriend give up the baby they conceived, otherwise he would no longer be with the woman – what is that newborn's mother to do? Sadly, Emily Dunn made the wrong decision – with tragic results. (The Durbin Baby Murder) *** The transplanting of an organ is almost a routine procedure now in the 21st century – even doing a transplant of an arm or a leg isn't uncommon. But when you talk about transplanting a living head onto a dead body – that's when things get tricky. But Robert White thought it could be done – and even tried doing it. (The Man Who Wanted To Do a Head Transplant) *** Imagine getting onto a plane and once in the air finding out that the pilot wasn't qualified to fly that kind of plane – and that he was only there because the original pilot wasn't available due to being dead. That's what happened in 1934 on the boat, the SS Morro Castle. And it was the beginning of tragedy after tragedy. (Mystery, Mismanagement, and Mayhem on the SS Morro Castle)==========HOUR TWO: In June of 2009 a man calling himself Peter Bergmann checked in to a hotel in Sligo Town. Five days later his body was found on Rosses Point Beach. But Peter Bergmann was not Peter Bergmann – so who was he? (The Peter Bergmann Mystery) *** Sharing stories from people who are frightened by a bump in the night or a strange shadow on the wall in their bedroom is one thing, but when you get professional ghost hunters telling of the scariest experiences they've had, you know it has to be some freaky stuff. (Scariest Experiences of Ghost Hunters) ==========SUDDEN DEATH OVERTIME: More of the scariest experiences of ghost hunters! *** I'll tell you about that time when a dam failed – and because of it, people were legally allowed to marry the dead. And still do to this day. (That Time A Failed Dam Led to Marrying Corpses) *** Personal experiences of those who have stayed at the Wolf Creek Inn, plus some hard evidence, seems to indicate that spirits who haunt the place are not only benign in nature, but even protect the guests and owners from other malevolent spirits which roam there as well.

Replacement captain William Warms steered into gale-force winds and waited 38 minutes to send a distress call, paint-gummed lifeboats refused to lower, untrained passengers broke their necks jumping in faulty life jackets, and at least 137 of the 549 aboard died before the charred hulk ran aground at Asbury Park, New Jersey, where souvenir stands sprang up around the wreck. Suspicion later fell on chief radio operator George White Rogers, the disaster's celebrated hero, whose hidden history of arson convictions, an aquarium-heater bomb built to maim a police lieutenant asking too many questions, and a double murder ended with his sudden death in Trenton State Prison — and the disappearance of his prison records.From there the episode lightens briefly with a pair of newspaper accounts of courtship by gravestone: an 1896 story from the Cincinnati Enquirer about a widower who finally bought a $50 monument for his wife of five years past — not out of grief, but to impress a wealthy widow who had called him too cheap to mark the grave — and a 1924 item from the Kansas City Star about a Kansas woman who married a widower precisely because he kept his first wife's grave so well.Next comes Dr. Robert J. White, the Cleveland neurosurgeon who watched the first successful human kidney transplant in Boston in 1954 and spent the rest of his life pursuing something far stranger: transplanting a living human head onto a donor body. In March 1970 he performed the operation on monkeys, moving one animal's head onto another's decapitated body in an 18-hour surgery; the hybrid lived nine days. White, a devout Catholic who sparred publicly with journalist Oriana Fallaci and animal rights activist Ingrid Newkirk, came close to attempting the procedure on a quadriplegic human volunteer through Russia's medical system before he died in 2010, leaving behind questions about consciousness, identity, and death that medicine has yet to answer.The hour then turns to Jeannie Saffin, a 61-year-old London woman with the mental capacity of a child who, on September 15, 1982, burst into flames while sitting calmly at her father's kitchen table in Edmonton with her hands in her lap. Her father Jack and brother-in-law Don Carroll doused the fire, but Jeannie — burned to the subcutaneous fat on her face, hands, and abdomen — never screamed, slipped into a coma, and died eight days later. The chair she sat in was unmarked, the nearest flame was a shielded pilot light five feet away, and a police constable concluded it was spontaneous human combustion, a verdict the coroner rejected. Skeptic Joe Nickell's pipe-ember theory accounts for some details, but not how a human body ignited so completely in under two minutes while burning nothing around it.Then the mystery of Peter Bergmann: the tall, gray-haired man with an Austrian accent who arrived in Sligo, Ireland by bus on June 12, 2009, checked into the Sligo City Hotel under a false name and a fabricated Vienna address, and over three days left the hotel thirteen times carrying a full purple plastic bag — returning empty-handed each time, never once caught by CCTV disposing of anything. He bought ten international stamps, cut the labels from his clothes, folded them neatly on a rock at Rosses Point Beach, and was found dead at the water's edge the next morning near Dead Man's Point. The autopsy revealed terminal prostate cancer he could not have been unaware of, yet he died of cardiac arrest, not dr

In this week’s episode of Political Contessa, Jennifer welcomes Elizabeth Dionne, a relentless reformer, attorney, and former chair of the Belmont Select Board with proven leadership, financial, and legal expertise. Elizabeth is running for Massachusetts State Treasurer, bringing a history of fiscal responsibility, having delivered balanced municipal budgets and never relying on reserve funds. As a mother of four and a decades-long resident of Massachusetts, Elizabeth is focused on restoring fiscal sanity and advocating for efficient, taxpayer-centered governance. She is widely recognized for working across the aisle, championing transparency, and prioritizing common sense in public service. This episode dives into the urgent issues facing Massachusetts, highlighting controversial and neglected realities, including unchecked government spending, cronyism, insider deals, and an overwhelming exodus of taxpayers and young talent driven by high costs. Elizabeth explains how, over years of one-party Democratic rule, waste, graft, and benefit fraud have flourished while essential state agencies—like the Lottery and the School Building Authority—are riddled with inefficiency and patronage hires. She exposes staggering mismanagement under the current treasurer, the misuse of funds for personal vendettas, and runaway costs in programs meant to support local communities and frontline services. Elizabeth lays out her plan for regular audits, whistleblower protection, and transparency, calling on voters to make 2026 the year Massachusetts reclaims responsible government. The conversation features a call to action for voters to prioritize local elections, push back against the status quo, and demand leadership that values every tax dollar. “I am taking no industry money. If you look at her donations, a lot of industry money. The people who are coming before her, the people she’s regulating, she’s taking money from. That’s corrupt.” ~Elizabeth Dionne This week on Political Contessa: Massachusetts’ unchecked government spending and the urgent need for audits The impact of one-party rule, cronyism, and benefit fraud on state finances Mismanagement and patronage hires undermining the Massachusetts Lottery How runaway costs in the School Building Authority neglect needy students The exodus of taxpayers and young talent from Massachusetts Exploding benefit rolls and the strain on the state’s tax base The $33 billion deficit threatening public pensions and fiscal stability A concrete plan for whistleblower protection, transparency, and fiscal reform Connect with Elizabeth Dionne: Elizabeth Dionne campaign website Resources mentioned: Massachusetts State Retirement Board Massachusetts School Building Authority Star Market app (for coupon savings, an example of personal fiscal discipline) Awaken Your Inner Political Contessa Thanks for tuning into this week’s episode of Political Contessa.

Dan Buck dissects the misuse and mismanagement of the Rams settlement funds across St. Louis City and County, criticizing elected officials for budget shortfalls, bureaucratic inefficiency, and squandered opportunities. He highlights the original plan by Dave Spence to use the money for low-interest, business-focused economic development loans that could have created perpetual growth, contrasting it with the current Democratic approach of dispersing funds through government programs with little long-term impact. Buck also touches on broader civic issues, including crime, tax increases, and infrastructure decay, illustrating how political dysfunction undermines regional progress.

The Wall Street Journal published a bombshell expose revealing unprecedented chaos at the Department of Homeland Security under Kristi Noem and her senior advisor Cory Lewandowski. Multiple sources within DHS describe an agency consumed by personal ambition, alleged romantic entanglements, and petty power struggles that have compromised national security operations. Kristi Noem and Cory Lewandowski face allegations of conducting an extramarital affair while running DHS like a reality television production. The pair reportedly use a $70 million luxury Boeing 737 Max jet with a private bedroom for travel across the country while demanding ICE agents film arrests on personal cell phones for social media content. Noem fired a Coast Guard pilot over a missing blanket, tracks television appearances obsessively to ensure she gets more airtime than Tom Homan, and refers to internal DHS meetings as cabinet meetings despite holding no such authority.Lewandowski operates as a special government employee with a 130-day annual limit but has exceeded this timeframe by avoiding badge swipes at DHS headquarters. He unsuccessfully demanded law enforcement credentials and a federally issued firearm, leading to the firing or demotion of officials who refused his requests. The former South Dakota governor and Trump campaign manager have fired 80% of career ICE field leadership, creating institutional knowledge gaps that contributed to operational failures.

It was a historic weekend of professional golf as one of the game's greatest achievements finally came to an end. Andy begins this episode on a somber note as Xander Schauffele's "made cut streak" was snapped on Friday at the Farmers Insurance Open. Brendan joins in, remembering other iconic streaks such as Cal Ripken Jr.'s consecutive games played record and comparing them to Xander's totally-not-made-up mark. Justin Rose did make the cut and ran away with his second win at Torrey Pines, defeating a trio of players by seven shots. The 45-year-old is now ranked third in the OWGR and has played some of the best golf of his career in the last 12 months. Andy and Brendan wonder how much gas he has left in the tank, with Brendan predicting that Rose will compete in majors into his fifties. In other notes from the Farmers, Brooks Koepka finished t56 and had plenty of time on the broadcast on ESPN, Golf Channel, and CBS despite never being competitive. One of the two mules that Brooks brought onto the "ark" this week did make some money, kicking off our yearlong game of Brooks vs. Mules. Johnson Wagner also made his long-awaited CBS debut and did not disappoint, recreating shots while the tournament was still going on! The two also discuss Michael Brennan's DQ thanks to a Data Boy and strong weeks from Si Woo Kim, Joel Dahmen, and Ryo Hisatsune. The DP World Tour event in Bahrain ended in a playoff featuring Patrick Reed and ended in a wild concession that no one had ever seen before. The main event of this podcast is Andy and Brendan's recap of what went on at the LPGA's Tournament of Champions on Sunday. The event was shortened into a 54-hole event due to the course not being an "optimal competitive environment" for "competitive competition" according to some statements from the tour. Andy and Brendan tee off as they're astounded by the celebrity pro-am still being played on the very same course rather than the actual tournament. For those with tinfoil hats, Nelly Korda won for the first time in over 440 days as a result of the shortened event. There's also plenty of Illinois basketball talk at the end of this episode, as well as more invites from colleges across the country who want Andy, Brendan, and PJ to inspire the youth of America. Join us in Chicagoland for an SGS Live Show on Thursday, February 12! We'll be hanging out at SPACE in Evanston, Illinois for a night of Q&A, Champs Tour Minute, and plenty of Bears chatter.

The news of Texas covered today includes:Our Lone Star story of the day: From the Stench Local Government File come stories about local school district irresponsibility in spending and deception when it comes to bond debt issues. The two main stories I mostly work from are: Austin ISD spent $100M in bond money on schools set to close – done more often than you'd think. If upgrades are not spread around all campuses and neighborhoods, people organize to oppose debt election and often some of those people are in areas that insiders already know will close in a few years. McAllen ISD considers $335 million bond for school upgrades, says tax rate would stay the same – remember, a tax rate staying the same is almost a guarantee of annual tax increases when figuring appraisal creep. It also ignores that without issuing the new 30-year debt, taxes could go down significantly.

Support our Halloween “Overcoming the Darkness” campaign to help people with depression: https://weirddarkness.com/HOPEA dying man with a fake identity spent his final days erasing every trace of his existence before walking into the Irish sea, leaving investigators with only one question: who was Peter Bergmann? | #WDRadio WEEK OF OCT 12, 2025==========HOUR ONE: In June of 2009 a man calling himself Peter Bergmann checked in to a hotel in Sligo Town. Five days later his body was found on Rosses Point Beach. But Peter Bergmann was not Peter Bergmann – so who was he? (The Peter Bergmann Mystery) *** Sharing stories from people who are frightened by a bump in the night or a strange shadow on the wall in their bedroom is one thing, but when you get professional ghost hunters telling of the scariest experiences they've had, you know it has to be some freaky stuff. (Scariest Experiences of Ghost Hunters) ==========HOUR TWO: Jeannie Saffin already had a tough life, being born with a birth defect that stunted her mental growth, leaving her with the mind of a child, never getting married and having kids, never dating… but that all pales in comparison to how she died: bursting into flames for no apparent reason. Was Jeannie Saffin the victim of spontaneous human combustion? (The Spontaneous Combustion of Jeannie Saffin) *** Sometimes it's easy to get a girl to go out with you – just be polite and ask. Some men resort to cheesy pickup lines thinking it will help their chances. But one man chose to call upon a woman in a very unusual way… by purchasing a gravestone. (Pitching Woo With a Tombstone) *** If a man demands his girlfriend give up the baby they conceived, otherwise he would no longer be with the woman – what is that newborn's mother to do? Sadly, Emily Dunn made the wrong decision – with tragic results. (The Durbin Baby Murder) *** The transplanting of an organ is almost a routine procedure now in the 21st century – even doing a transplant of an arm or a leg isn't uncommon. But when you talk about transplanting a living head onto a dead body – that's when things get tricky. But Robert White thought it could be done – and even tried doing it. (The Man Who Wanted To Do a Head Transplant) *** Imagine getting onto a plane and once in the air finding out that the pilot wasn't qualified to fly that kind of plane – and that he was only there because the original pilot wasn't available due to being dead. That's what happened in 1934 on the boat, the SS Morro Castle. And it was the beginning of tragedy after tragedy. (Mystery, Mismanagement, and Mayhem on the SS Morro Castle)==========SUDDEN DEATH OVERTIME: More of the scariest experiences of ghost hunters! *** I'll tell you about that time when a dam failed – and because of it, people were legally allowed to marry the dead. And still do to this day. (That Time A Failed Dam Led to Marrying Corpses) *** Personal experiences of those who have stayed at the Wolf Creek Inn, plus some hard evidence, seems to indicate that spirits who haunt the place are not only benign in nature, but even protect the guests and owners from other malevolent spirits which roam there as well.
