Glenn Cox explained that Zarahemla was a location of a great battle mentioned in the Book of Mormon, where the forces of good and evil clashed. The city was believed to be in North America, possibly near Montrose, Iowa, or in Guatemala. The conversation also touched on the Mormons' belief in their lineage tracing back to the tribe of Judah and the challenges of finding archaeological evidence to validate the Book of Mormon. The discussion included references to ancient footprints in New Mexico and the role of Mormon families in preserving potential archaeological sites.

There's a sense of camaraderie among the speakers, with some self-deprecation about their readiness to discuss a certain topic and an acknowledgment of the complexity of the subject matter.

On July 13, 1910, on a quiet suburban street in Camden Town, London, a grisly discovery shattered the illusion of domestic peace. Beneath the floorboards of 39 Hilldrop Crescent, the dismembered remains of music hall performer Belle Elmore were unearthed. The Victorian house, prim, respectable, and unassuming, had become the scene of one of the most sensational murders in British history.As the press descended, the story gripped the world. Belle's husband, the mild-mannered doctor Hawley Harvey Crippen, and his lover, the demure and seemingly obedient Ethel Le Neve, had vanished, fleeing across the Atlantic in disguise. It was the first time in history that wireless telegraphy would be used to capture fugitives in real time. Their arrest aboard the Montrose, just before reaching Canada, turned the case into a media spectacle of unprecedented scale. London newspapers dubbed it “The Crime of the Century.”But behind the headlines lies a much more complicated story, one shaped by gender, class, performance, and power.In today's episode of I'm joined by award-winning historian Hallie Rubenhold, author of the book Story of a Murder: The Wives, The Mistress, and Dr. Crippen. In our discussion we focus on the two women most deeply entangled in this tale: Belle Elmore, and Ethel Le Neve. This isn't just a story about murder. It's about who gets to be remembered, who gets vilified, and how history treats women who refuse to conform.Disclaimer: This episode discusses topics that may not be suitable for all audiences.

Montrose has so much to offer from restaurants and bars to museums and local shops. But it's actually hard to walk around what should be one of Houston's most walkable neighborhoods. A project to overhaul Montrose Boulevard was supposed to help fix that — until Mayor John Whitmire stepped in. Host Raheel Ramzanali talks with Houston Public Media's Dominic Anthony Walsh about why the project got political and what it means for folks in Montrose and other Houston neighborhoods.

Today we have Kimmy. She is 34 years old from Montrose, Colorado and took her last drink on April 3rd, 2017.   This episode brought to you by Better Help – 10% off of your first month Café RE – THE social app for sober people   Here are some upcoming events at RE: Bozeman Retreat from August 6th-20th, 2025 Peru in October (registration closed) Dry January 2026 Ukelele Course in February 2026 Costa Rica in February 2026 AF Songwriting Course in March 2026   [04:12] Thoughts from Paul:   A few weeks ago, Paul did an intro titled “How to Let Go” and then told us that had no idea how to let go. Since that episode, he has started looking at this from another angle.   Paul shares that there was a time in his life that he would drink over things that he was unable to let go of. He says that progress has not been in letting things go, but it has been in his reactions to events and happenings in life.   When drinking everything was a knee jerk reaction with no space between the stimulus and the response. Recovery has taught him how to pause, to wait, to gather his thoughts before responding to an event or trigger.   One strategy with this is to not add a good or bad label to whatever happens in life. What seems like an unfortunate life event now may later turn out to be a great thing. Our reactions to life in general are the key to letting go. If we lean into the space between stimulus and response, and remain neutral to all of life's unfolding, there will be less that needs to be let go of.   [08:59] Paul introduces Kimmy:   Kimmy grew up Big Fork, Montana and grew up riding horses and competing in barrel racing and rodeos. She says overall she had a good childhood.   Kimmy says that she had her first drink when she was 17 and feels that drinking was a problem for her right from the start. Several events that happened in her teens drove Kimmy to use alcohol to cope with her feelings around them. She would take shots of her mom's liquor and then drive 30 minutes to school already drunk.   After leaving college, a friend of Kimmy's said she was moving to Telluride for ski season. Kimmy went with her and while the friend left after the season was over, Kimmy stayed because she enjoyed it there.   After having multiple rock bottom moments, Kimmy tried different techniques to quit drinking or moderate. They all backfired, she says. Eventually she turned to her faith in a moment of surrender. She didn't quit drinking instantly, but over time grew to see that alcohol was no longer doing anything for her.   Kimmy took her last drink at the end of the ski season in 2017. It was one beer, and she isn't even sure she finished it. She was able to quit and after nine months told her father, who also drinks, and he was so proud of her she just wanted to keep going.   Kimmy says working has been a big part of her recovery as she currently has four jobs. She stays close to her faith and although she doesn't attend church, she reads her bible frequently. Kimmy has goals now and shares that she didn't really have any after getting derailed by some events in her teenage years and turning to alcohol. It has taken time, but Kimmy is getting back to riding and competing and sees this current year of sobriety as a year of redemption as she looks forward to improving in these endeavors.   Recovery Elevator It all starts from the inside out.
