Axon seems to come up in a lot of investing discussion, but its largest competitor often doesn't. Motorola is more than three times the size of Axon.We've done a few videos on Axon, but never on its biggest competitor: Motorola Solutions (MSI). So this time we put them side by side, along with the wider public safety sector, because you shouldn't make a portfolio decision on either one without understanding the other.Motorola is far bigger — $3.1B in quarterly revenue versus Axon's $904M — but growing slower at 13% year over year against Axon's 35%. Motorola is the profitable, shareholder-friendly value name (nearly 26% operating margins, $326M in buybacks and $201M in dividends last quarter). Axon is the high-growth leader that barely makes money today and carries the uncertainty that comes with aggressive acquisitions and heavy stock-based comp.We also get into why this is really a physical-AI story: both companies are pushing hard into drones — Axon with Skydio and Dedrone, Motorola with Brinc and its Defend Solutions acquisition — neither building the hardware themselves, both focused on the software that runs it. We run a reverse DCF on each, including how we think about "normalizing" Axon's not-yet-real profitability, to see what growth each stock needs to justify today's price.TIMESTAMPS0:00 - Why Motorola Deserves a Look Before You Buy Axon1:00 - Public Safety as a Physical AI Thesis (and the Flock Backlash)2:00 - Drone Startups: Ondas, Red Cat, Unusual Machines3:00 - Motorola vs. Axon: Size vs. Growth3:40 - The Drone Push: Skydio, Brinc, and Software-First Strategy6:00 - Margins and Profitability: Where Motorola Leads7:30 - Motorola's Earnings Highlights and Segment KPIs9:30 - Reverse DCF on Motorola: The Value Case11:15 - Reverse DCF on Axon: Normalizing "Pretend Profitability"13:30 - Final Take: Buy, Watch List, or a Public Safety Basket—If you want the reasoning behind more names like this one, Semiconductor Insider covers the process in more depth.

PCB grounding mistakes rarely start with the designer; they start in the datasheet, the app note, and the reference design that gets copied straight into production. On this episode of the Altium OnTrack Podcast, Zach Peterson talks with Dan Beeker, president of System Solution Specialists, about split grounds, mislabeled ground pins, and leftover ferrites that turn evaluation-board shortcuts into EMC failures.  Drawing on a 45-year career across Motorola, Freescale, and NXP, Dan explains why field-based design, which treats the dielectric rather than the copper as the place energy travels, makes signal integrity and EMC compliance predictable. You'll also hear why the kitchen-sink approach to a failed emissions test rarely works, what critical switching-speed and geometry details datasheets leave out, and how to build a proper Z-axis transmission line through HDI vias. Dan also previews his three PCB West 2026 classes, running September 29 to October 2 in Santa Clara.

The Milwaukee Bucks are shifting their jersey patch deal to Uline, a packaging materials company based in the NBA team’s home state, from electronics maker Motorola. Bucks president Josh Glessing said during an interview on Bloomberg TV that it’s the club’s biggest patch deal yet. Terms weren’t provided other than it being over multiple years. The team had been looking for $10 million a year as Motorola’s five-year deal ended, according to a report earlier this year in the Milwaukee Business Journal. Glessing speaks with host Romaine Bostick about the new deal and the upcoming NBA season. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Interview Date: August 30, 2026Episode SummaryIn Episode 149 of The Business of Dance Podcast, host Menina Fortunato sits down with Los Angeles-based choreographer, movement director, and performer Noelle Marsh. Noelle traces her path from a small dance studio in North Carolina to the world stage, beginning with dance at age three, competing nationally, and appearing on So You Think You Can Dance, which became her gateway into the industry. She opens up about assisting Mia Michaels, being mentored by Brian Friedman, and choreographing and later performing alongside Tate McRae. Noelle also shares what it was like dancing in the Thriller sequence of the Michael Jackson biopic and the emotional weight of stepping into that legacy. The conversation explores her transition from performer to creative lead, moving fluidly between dancing and choreography, the fear and freedom of rejection, and why she believes people feel your thoughts more than your words. The episode closes with a mentee Q&A about authenticity, standing out in the room, building connections, and navigating today's social-media-driven industry.Shownotes00:50 – Introducing guest Noelle Marsh03:10 – Growing up dancing in small-town North Carolina04:33 – Getting the call to assist Mia Michaels07:00 – Moving to Los Angeles with no plan and no backup10:33 – First booking: the Oscars with Adam Shankman12:42 – Building a relationship with Brian Friedman15:07 – Choreographing and later dancing for Tate McRae19:20 – Dancing in the Thriller sequence of the Michael Jackson biopic24:04 – Transitioning from performer to choreographer27:00 – Winning Every Single Step and gaining creative confidence29:48 – Balancing dancing and choreography today32:37 – Authenticity, thoughts over words, and reframing rejection36:56 – Mentee Q&A: connections, standing out, and social media's role todayBiographyNoelle Marsh is a Los Angeles-based choreographer, movement director, and performer whose career moves across contemporary dance, pop culture, film, television, and brand work.

La présence simultanée de Xi Jinping et Narendra Modi en Inde, à l'occasion du sommet des Brics, illustre le réchauffement des relations entre les deux pays les plus peuplés du monde. L'étau se desserre doucement entre les deux économies, avec l'autorisation de nouveaux investissements chinois sur le territoire indien, notamment dans un secteur clé : la fabrication de téléphones portables. Si la Chine reste de loin le plus grand fabricant mondial, l'Inde progresse rapidement. Une alliance, où une « joint venture » entre deux géants du secteur, a été annoncée en juillet. L'entreprise chinoise Vivo et l'indienne Dixon ont ainsi scellé leur collaboration, comme en témoigne la visite de l'une de leurs usines en banlieue de New Delhi. De notre envoyé spécial à New Delhi, Environ 1,2 million de téléphones par mois sont produits dans les usines que supervise Lalit Choudhary, directeur général des opérations pour Dixon Electronics, leader indien de la fabrication de téléphones. Avant d'entrer dans l'usine, passage obligé par la clean room : un sas où une gigantesque soufflerie élimine toutes les poussières. « Pas de poussière, contrôle de la température, contrôle de l'humidité, des décharges électrostatiques, il faut un environnement spécifique », explique-t-il. Chaque employé surveille avec attention les larges machines blanches. Elles gravent, assemblent et vérifient que chaque pièce fonctionne. « Cette machine-là, on l'appelle le pilote. Et là, c'est une carte mère, mais pas encore fonctionnelle. Une fois qu'elle est passée dans la machine, avec tous les composants, on dit que c'est bon, elle est assemblée. Tout ce qui permet ensuite de pouvoir contrôler et utiliser le téléphone, c'est grâce à cela », détaille le directeur des opérations. Une plaque métallique sur laquelle sont installés les semi-conducteurs et composants électroniques du téléphone. Après être passée dans une dizaine de machines, la carte mère peut monter à l'étage supérieur. C'est là, au micro-assemblage, que le téléphone prend forme. « En moyenne, il y a 75-80 personnes par ligne de production selon les modèles », précise Lalit Choudhary. « En Inde, cela fait plus de 15 ans que nous assemblons des portables, les gens ici en Inde sont des experts », ajoute-t-il. Samsung, Motorola, Apple : la plupart des constructeurs mondiaux veulent réduire leur dépendance à la Chine et se tournent vers l'Inde, attirés par le faible coût du travail et les débouchés de l'immense marché indien. C'est aussi ce que vient chercher l'entreprise chinoise Vivo, dont la production conjointe avec Dixon doit débuter à l'automne. « Vivo, c'est le leader du marché des téléphones portables dans le marché indien, ils ont près de 20 % de part de marché, c'est une grande entreprise avec des capacités technologiques », souligne Saurabh Gupta, directeur financier du groupe. Vivo, spécialisé dans la conception des portables, fabrique une large partie de sa production en Chine, un savoir-faire utile pour Dixon. Mais il a fallu convaincre durant plus de 15 mois les autorités indiennes pour qu'elles acceptent le projet. « Dans une joint-venture, les entreprises indiennes doivent avoir la majorité des parts, il doit y avoir des bénéfices concrets pour l'industrie et le pays en termes de transferts de technologies, de savoir-faire, des bonnes pratiques à adopter », explique Saurabh Gupta. Des transferts de technologies loin d'être évidents. Beaucoup doutent de la volonté des entreprises chinoises de vouloir réellement aider à former leurs concurrents de demain.

Samsung, Motorola, Apple : la plupart des constructeurs mondiaux veulent réduire leur dépendance à la Chine et se tournent vers l'Inde, attirés par le faible coût du travail et les débouchés de l'immense marché indien. C'est aussi ce que vient chercher l'entreprise chinoise Vivo, dont la production conjointe avec Dixon doit débuter à l'automne. « Vivo, c'est le leader du marché des téléphones portables dans le marché indien, ils ont près de 20 % de part de marché, c'est une grande entreprise avec des capacités technologiques », souligne Saurabh Gupta, directeur financier du groupe. Vivo, spécialisé dans la conception des portables, fabrique une large partie de sa production en Chine, un savoir-faire utile pour Dixon. Mais il a fallu convaincre durant plus de 15 mois les autorités indiennes pour qu'elles acceptent le projet. « Dans une joint-venture, les entreprises indiennes doivent avoir la majorité des parts, il doit y avoir des bénéfices concrets pour l'industrie et le pays en termes de transferts de technologies, de savoir-faire, des bonnes pratiques à adopter », explique Saurabh Gupta. Des transferts de technologies loin d'être évidents. Beaucoup doutent de la volonté des entreprises chinoises de vouloir réellement aider à former leurs concurrents de demain.

A Apple finalmente entrou no mercado de celulares dobráveis. Depois de anos acompanhando a evolução desse segmento, a empresa apresentou o iPhone Duo e abriu uma nova fase na disputa com Samsung, Motorola, Xiaomi, Huawei e Google. Mas a espera valeu a pena? O primeiro dobrável da Apple realmente oferece algo diferente dos aparelhos que já estão no mercado? Essas perguntas estão no novo episódio do Podcast Canaltech. Marcelo Fischer conversa com Bruno Bertonzin, redator de produtos do Canaltech, sobre os principais lançamentos da Apple e as mudanças na estratégia da empresa. Além do iPhone Duo, a companhia apresentou os novos iPhone 18 Pro e 18 Pro Max. A geração traz câmera com abertura variável, novo processador e melhorias de eficiência energética, mas mantém a tradição de mudanças mais discretas entre um ano e outro. Outra novidade está no calendário. A Apple deixou o iPhone 18 convencional para o começo do próximo ano, quando o aparelho deve dividir espaço com uma nova versão de entrada. Na avaliação de Bruno, essa decisão pode ajudar a empresa a manter seus celulares em evidência no período em que concorrentes como Samsung e Xiaomi apresentam seus principais lançamentos. O grande assunto da conversa, porém, é o iPhone Duo. Bruno explica por que a Apple demorou tanto para lançar um dobrável e compara o aparelho com os modelos mais recentes da Samsung. Entre os destaques estão o suporte à Apple Pencil, as animações criadas para a transição entre as telas e recursos que aproveitam o celular parcialmente dobrado. Por outro lado, espessura, peso, design e preço ainda podem favorecer os concorrentes. A chegada da Apple também pode acelerar a evolução de todo o segmento. Com uma nova gigante na disputa, outras fabricantes ganham mais pressão para recuperar recursos, aprimorar seus aparelhos e tornar os celulares dobráveis mais atraentes.

When Samsung's CEO asked Federico Casalegno to redesign the cameras on the company's phones, Federico told him he was the wrong person for the job. He wasn't an optical engineer. He didn't understand cameras. What he understood was storytelling — and he pointed to the Lascaux caves in France, where people were marking walls twenty thousand years ago for the same reason we hold up our phones today: to capture a moment, and tell it to someone we love. Find the full episode on our Substack:https://designbetterpodcast.com/p/federico-casalegno That's the kind of answer you get from a designer who arrived by way of studying human society. Federico is Head of Samsung's Global Design Studios, with teams spread across San Francisco, Europe, and Seoul. Before that he spent two decades at MIT, where he co-founded the MIT Design Lab with Bill Mitchell, and before that he was a social scientist embedded with engineers and psychologists at Philips Design in the nineties — back when “cross-disciplinary” wasn't yet a word anyone put on a job posting. We talk about what that looks like in practice at the scale Samsung operates at. His team builds digital twins of human ears — thousands of 3D and 4D scans across real demographics — then simulates millions of variations to figure out how an earbud should fit. Then they strap the buds onto robots and make them run. Then they test with actual humans, because at some point a person still has to decide what “comfortable” means. There's a phrase Federico kept returning to: technology without humanity is merely perfection without purpose. The designer's role is problem making first, problem solving later. We also get into how critique works inside a company that speaks a dozen native languages, what he actually looks for when hiring, and the French philosopher who, at 102, looked at his calendar and said he was booked until next year. Bio Federico Casalegno is Executive Vice President at Samsung, where he leads product experience innovation across business units and heads the company's Global Design Studios. Reporting directly to the CEO, he builds teams of designers, engineers, creative technologists, and strategists working on advanced design and next-generation experience planning. As head of design and AI, he established Samsung's Computational Design function and leads digital transformation across the organization. Before Samsung, Federico spent two decades at MIT, where he founded the MIT Design Lab and the MIT Mobile Experience Lab and taught at MIT and the MIT Media Lab, researching the intersection of design, AI, and emerging technology. He previously worked at Motorola and Philips Design, and holds a PhD in sociology from the Sorbonne. *** Premium Episodes on Design Better⁠ This is a premium episode on Design Better.

The update explores the evolving landscape of ownership and control as artificial intelligence reshapes creative, personal, and financial sectors. Recent developments include Australia's ban on AI-generated songs from music charts and a multi-billion dollar copyright lawsuit against Anthropic for using unlicensed works to train its models. Beyond the arts, the sources detail how companies like Alibaba and Google leverage personal data and hardware fingerprints to track and influence user behavior. Government responses are becoming more drastic, such as New Zealand's move to use facial recognition to enforce social media age limits, while Motorola offers a path toward user autonomy through privacy-focused operating systems. Meanwhile, the Bank of England warns that the rapid scaling of frontier AI presents an unprecedented threat to the stability of the global financial system. Ultimately, these stories highlight a growing tension between rapid technological advancement and the preservation of human value and privacy.We're going to dive deep/

EP307In this week's update:Australia just told AI: you can't have the top of the charts without proving a human sang it.Anthropic's getting sued by Sony and Warner for billions over music they used to train Claude-and the question isn't whether they did it, it's whether you can even build an AI without consuming human culture.Your device just became a tracking instrument the moment you opened AliExpress, and Alibaba's using inaudible soundwaves to do it.Google's building a lifestyle app that turns your aspirations into AI cartoons, one limited story at a time.New Zealand decided no one under 16 gets TikTok or a ChatGPT boyfriend, and they're scanning faces to make sure.Motorola's about to let you buy a phone in 2027 and switch to a privacy-hardened OS without breaking it.Apple got caught flat-footed by enterprise demand for AI Macs and had to move up their release schedule.And the Bank of England just warned that frontier AI could destabilize the global financial system because attacks will become faster, cheaper, and infinitely more scalable.This week, the central theme isn't breaches or hacks or leaks.  It's ownership-who owns the music, who owns your attention, who owns the data, who owns the system, and most importantly, who gets to decide what happens when AI learns to mimic everything humans have ever created.It's a week about value, control, and the price we pay when we forget that every note ever sung belongs to someone. Let's get into it.

Godfrey is joined by Dante Nero, Akeem Woods, and Vishnu Vaka to talk about Target getting caught selling a Halloween "Hide and Eek" costume that is literally blackface with the same hat and grin as the old Al Jolson Jim Crow imagery, why we need to stay boycotting Target and use Blapp instead to support Black-owned businesses, the 70+ Black people hanged across the South and quietly ruled suicides, the special needs Black kid who got choked up by two white men in front of Walmart, Carmelo Anthony's case heading to appellate court after all the new evidence came out about the racist who came for him, RIP Dolly Parton being the wrong 80-year-old to go while Ted Nugent is still walking around, Bernadette Stanis from Good Times still looking fine at 72, Cambridge professor Jason Arday being pushed to his death by the same jealous white nerd who just got fired from Gettysburg, Officer Tatum being a full Franken-coon with a wife who looks like Demi Moore left on a radiator, a Black man named Thomas Miller designing both the 7-Up and Motorola logos, and Steve-O getting called out for going racist on the Mexican deportation talk.

Send us Fan MailIn this episode of Inspire Someone Today, Srikanth sits down with Shrinath V — product strategist, startup coach, Google Developer Expert, and the writer behind the Substack Blind Spots to Big Bets — for a conversation that refuses to let you off the hook.Shrinath has lived through two layoffs at companies “built to last”—Motorola and Nokia—and turned those career disruptions into a consulting practice, a writing practice, and a clear view of why most organizations keep making the same costly mistakes. He talks about why NPS is a dangerous proxy, why the AI-first rush is largely performative, why India's real advantage in the AI age is its ability to thrive in chaos, and why the biggest blind spot most professionals carry is a competitive mindset they've never examined.More than anything, he leaves you with three questions worth sitting with today — not someday.WHAT YOU WILL LEARNWhy two layoffs — at Motorola and Nokia — were the making of Shrinath's consulting career, not the end of itWhat large corporations teach you that no MBA can — and why the lesson usually arrives as a shockThe difference between being unable to see a blind spot and being unwilling to see one — and why each needs a different kind of helpWhy NPS scores, AI-first strategies, and user personas can all become dangerous traps if you mistake the metric for the truthThe most common blind spot Shrinath sees across leaders regardless of industry, seniority, or company sizeWhy India's real superpower in the AI age is adaptation, not invention — and what that means for your careerThree questions every professional should ask themselves once a year — and why we keep avoiding themThe Listener Action: a 15-minute exercise to surface your own blind spots, starting todayHave you purchased the copy of Inspire Someone Today, yet? - Give it a go geni.us/istbookAvailable on all podcast platforms, including, Apple Podcasts, YouTube, Spotify

Send us Fan MailThe Cape Cod time capsule that is One Crazy Summer. Some of the movies shot on the Cape and Islands. The creation of the cellular telephone.Episode 256 is a bit of a throwback for the podcast as it is loaded with Cape Cod topics.We start by going back 40 years ago this week. One Crazy Summer is among the best mindlessly fun comedies of the 1980s. It wasn't a major box office or critical hit, but it did have one thing that made it special, and that was a deep connection to Cape Cod. Watching it today is like opening up an old photo album for Cape Codders who grew up during that time. We celebrate the 40th anniversary of One Crazy Summer this week.Today it can feel as though cell phone technology has been around forever. In some ways that is true, but in other ways it's still relatively new. We go way back to the beginning and trace the evolution of cellular telephone technology. From World War II to Y2K and all of the bumps and detours, we look at just how cell phones became the indispensable part of life that they are today. Cape Cod dominates this week's Top 5. We look at some of the films that were shot on Cape Cod or the islands of Nantucket and Martha's Vineyard. There are a few obvious ones, and some that might surprise you. We'll go over them all, good, bad, and very bad.As always, there is a brand-new This Week In History and Time Capsule, looking at the creation of the Leaning Tower of Pisa in Italy.To support me and the show, become a member on Patreon. Or you can support my work and Buy Me A Coffee!Helpful Links from this EpisodeBuy My New Book, In Their Footsteps!Searching For the Lady of the Dunes True Crime BookHooked By Kiwi - Etsy.comDJ Williams MusicKeeKee's Cape Cod KitchenMSFTS CommunityKingfisher Hotels Cape CodChristopher Setterlund.comCape Cod Living - Zazzle StoreSubscribe on YouTube!Initial Impressions 2.0 BlogCJSetterlundPhotos on EtsyListen to Episode 255 hereSupport the show

Newt traces the mobile phone from a $3,995 status symbol to a global phenomenon with more subscriptions than people on Earth. Beyond the American story, this episode spotlights the developing world, where mobile networks leapfrogged landline infrastructure entirely—connecting fishermen in India to real-time market prices and bringing mobile banking to millions of unbanked Kenyans through M-Pesa.

In this episode of The Jess Larsen Show on Innovation & Leadership, Jess sits down with Dennis Woodside, CEO of Freshworks, the $2.5B public software company helping IT and customer support teams use AI to work faster, smarter, and more efficiently. Dennis shares how Freshworks serves more than 75,000 companies around the world, including major names across technology, sports, education, entertainment, manufacturing, and enterprise software.

Jess and Dennis also dive into what it takes to lead a founder-built company through major transitions.

Welcome back to The Main Thing Podcast! The Teachers We Never Chose Sometimes our greatest teachers don't stand at the front of a classroom. They arrive disguised as hardship, disappointment, illness, financial pressure, failure or seasons we never would have chosen. When fellow podcaster Rick Barron accepted my invitation to join me on The Main Thing, I expected to hear great stories from his remarkable 42-year career in Silicon Valley. What I didn't expect was to come away thinking about failure, gratitude, resilience and the unexpected teachers that shape a life. Rick's journey takes us from a military hospital during the Vietnam War to Apple's original Macintosh launch, through a frightening battle with melanoma that nearly cost him his left arm, and into a retirement filled with curiosity, mentoring and meaningful conversations. It's an episode that reminds us wisdom is rarely learned in comfort.   Episode Summary Rick Barron has lived several remarkable chapters. He served our country during the Vietnam era. He helped manufacture the original Apple Macintosh. He spent 42 years working for technology leaders including Apple, Hewlett-Packard, Sun Microsystems, Motorola, Symantec and Intel. Today, he is a fellow podcaster whose curiosity and love of storytelling continue to give his retirement fresh purpose. Yet this conversation isn't ultimately about technology or career success. It's about what life teaches us. Rick shares unforgettable stories of watching Steve Jobs unveil Apple's legendary "1984" commercial, receiving a melanoma diagnosis that threatened his arm, facing financial uncertainty with only $53 left in his checking account and encouraging a young intern named Amy Wong toward the career she dreamed of pursuing.   Resources to Explore

Copyright ©2026, Weird Darkness.Originally aired: November, 2021Here's the blog synopsis in plain text, ready for your review pass before HTML conversion.Weird Darkness gathers dozens of true creepy stories submitted by Redditors, ranging from a grandmother buried alive in a backyard coffin to phantom police officers, a haunted hotel painter, a 1980s kidnapping attempt, and a dinner of "fresh venison" served by a cannibal.It opens with a coworker's family story about exhuming a grandmother who had been buried in a wooden box in the backyard, as was once customary. When the family lifted the lid to move her to a cemetery plot years later, they found claw marks covering the inside of the coffin — she had been buried alive.From there, a babysitter hears pans falling in the basement after putting the children to bed and calls the police expecting a single patrol officer. A full SWAT team arrives at the door instead, because the dispatcher heard a second phone on the line hang up after the call ended. A man wanted for multiple assaults had been listening from the basement extension.A secluded spring campground follows, where a father and his friends befriended a quiet neighbor living out of a makeshift truck camper. Days later, driving out, they spotted him hanging from a tree beside his untouched campsite, a note pinned to the trunk with a buck knife — the suicide had happened at the father's favorite camping spot, the same one where he finally told his children the story years later.Next comes a twelve-year-old girl living in a backyard trailer who heard footsteps crossing the metal roof at night, always when she was alone. Months later she woke to find the trailer sweltering, the heater cranked to full blast, and fled on instinct; investigators later found the door lock tampered with and a kitchen knife hidden behind a chair beside the heating controls, where the staring neighbor had apparently crouched in wait.After the first break, a traveler in Taiwan steps into an elevator near a night market and stops on a pitch-dark, abandoned floor that shouldn't exist. The building's fourth floor — omitted from the panel entirely, in keeping with Chinese numerical superstition — had been sealed after a hair salon employee died by suicide there, and the elevator had been professionally reprogrammed to never stop on it. It sometimes does anyway, and riders report a figure in a gown moving toward the doors.Then a 2 a.m. street fight ends with a stabbing, a daughter catching her bleeding stepfather on the porch, and an answering machine message recorded at the exact time of the attack: a school friend across town, crying, describing a dream of screaming, a fight, and her friend covered in blood — in the late 1980s, long before cell phones could have carried the news.A college student renting a basement room recounts his dog growling at one corner of the room, followed by the small dirt-floored closet under the stairs creaking open on its own with deliberate slowness, leaving him frozen in the dark hallway for five full minutes.A seven-year-old girl visiting her mother's best friend watches a burned family — a mother, a teenage boy, and two younger girls — walk the house and beckon her to come with them. Years later the friend admitted the family had moved out over hauntings: baby toys scattered overnight, blankets and pillows arranged on the floor as if people had slept there.A smashed flower pot follows, found twenty feet from its shelf in the middle of a family room floor with no dirt trail, as if it had been carried and dropped straight down. Then two brothers named Jack and Tom each spend a night silently furious at the other's loud guests, only to meet in the hallway and discover the living room full of chattering old people belonged to neither of them — the room stood empty, smelling of musk.A college party flips from paranormal dread to absurdity when a bleeding, pantsless man with wild hair forces his way through the door screaming "please"; the supposed intruder turned out to be a friend of a friend on a catastrophic acid trip who had lost his pants running through a field.The block closes with a runner who caught a prospective neighbor — a man who had complimented his physique two days earlier — standing at his bedroom window at midnight, having entered the house earlier to adjust the blinds for a better view. The chase across gravel driveways ended with a written confession, a photographed license plate, and, a full year later, a knock on the door from the same man, apologizing.Out of the second break comes a Hollywood Hills doorstep in the early 1980s: a distraught woman babbling about blood, two LAPD officers who collect her within ten minutes, and then two more officers thirty minutes later — the ones actually dispatched to the call, with no record of who the first pair were or where they took her.The night crew of a 24-hour Subway describes their resident "SubGhost," blamed for disembodied conversations, crashing noises, items sliding off counters, and a new automatic paper towel dispenser that unspooled an entire roll, sheet by sheet, in an empty room.Three children watch a white figure of a man sit atop a telephone pole, grinning at them, before he stands, jumps, and vanishes before reaching the ground. Then a basement-apartment tenant describes a man watching him through the window for ten minutes, followed weeks later by an air conditioner cover pried off in the night — and a police department that could do nothing until someone actually broke in.A newspaper carrier on a rural route in 2000 describes a drenched man in a white shirt charging out of a rain-filled ditch at 2 a.m. with what looked like a hatchet in his hand; the man took his own life within the hour, and the carrier had to pound on a farmhouse door to report it because his Motorola flip phone had no signal.A bus rider chats with an oddly unsettling woman at the stop, boards an empty bus, and hears "Hey! Remember me?" from a little girl who resembles the woman exactly — on a bus the rider is certain was empty.The episode then travels to South Africa's Eastern Cape in July 2010, where a humanitarian worker and a missionary named Piet arrive at a Xhosa village to find it deserted. A naked woman covered in cuts, missing an ear, and running on all fours charged their truck, screeching and clawing at the windows as they fled. The villagers later said only that "a bad presence" had been in the village and was now gone.Gentler hauntings follow: a clock radio scraping across a desk to face a grandson and playing opera — the late grandfather's wake-up music of choice — two weeks after the funeral; a glass bowl that shattered downstairs during a sleepover and was found already swept up, its pieces gathered into another bowl on the table; and a dying grandfather whose eyes opened wide on his final breath as he smiled, looking happier than he had in years.The dread returns with a woman home alone who hears something working at her front door lock and sees two silhouettes — one at the door, one at the living room window — standing motionless, watching her watch them. They vanished before help arrived, and she found the basement window partially kicked in the next morning.A Sacramento man recounts surviving an attempted kidnapping around age nine or ten: a white van stopped beside a late-night Frisbee game, the sliding door opened, and a man in black flew out on a rigged telescoping harness operated from inside, missing his grab by inches. The three boys hid on a school roof for nearly an hour while the van circled, searching.A small-town yard sale yields a dented silver cigarette case for two dollars; months later the same elderly seller has the identical case — same dent, same brand of cigarette inside — while the original has vanished from the buyer's nightstand drawer. A man recalls childhood dreams of gripping toys hard enough to wake up holding them, including the Skeletor figure his family swore they never bought.Then a sixteen-year-old new driver and her four-year-old half-sister are stalked across town by a purple-faced man in a white pickup truck who blocked intersections, revealed a gun under his shirt, rammed their car toward oncoming traffic, and drew a finger across his throat. The older sister's gas station escape plan — coaching the four-year-old to jump out and run to the counter — ended the pursuit, though polic
