This week we have a wild Mackenzie Undercover story, but this time Mackenzie got all the tea doing her side hustle as a makeup artist, and then ended up in a PI dilemma. What starts as an ordinary makeup appointment quickly turns into a front-row seat to a web of secrets, suspicious behavior, and enough awkward tension to make anyone sweat. As Mackenzie finds herself in an unexpected ethical dilemma, she and Hannah unpack the blurry lines between gossip, intuition, and professional discretion, all while asking just how much can really be happening behind the scenes of a picture-perfect wedding.Are you in the Chicago, Tampa, or Orlando area and want to come see us live?!

An in-depth analysis of Off Campus that focuses on the careful ways that serious issues of sexual assault, domestic violence, and trauma were presented as part of a meaningful love story. It's rare to encounter a show that is presented as thoughtfully and with so many positive messages. Despite its feet kicking elements, seeing main characters face fears, overcome self-doubt, and choose to forego the safety of solitude for the hope of real connection seems to be what has captivated viewers the most. After breaking down multiple ways the characters help each other progress, fellow Off Campus fan Lauren Skae, a.k.a. @thezenblonde joins the discussion. We chat about our favorite moments, point out how Elle Kennedy's books differ from the show, and how we hope the next generation sees the overwhelming desire for masculinity that champions protection, consent, and consideration.

Troy shares how God called him into young adult ministry, why community matters in your 20s, and how rebuilding isn't repair but a restructuring on the right foundation. He opens up about grief after losing his father and grandfather, how pain can harden or soften your heart, and the scriptures, mentors, and church support that carried him through. They talk comparison, identity, slowing down, joy vs. happiness, and how God can be working even when He feels silent, ending with a prayer for anyone walking through grief or a hard season. Interested in visiting Venture Church in Salinas, CA?

When Emma reconnects with a childhood family friend during a disaster relief deployment, she never expects to fall for a man who seems straight out of a movie. A decorated paramedic, respected leader, and real-life lifesaver, Adam is the kind of person everyone admires. As their relationship deepens, Emma finds herself swept into a world of grand gestures, heroic rescues, and unwavering devotion. But as small inconsistencies begin to surface, she's left questioning whether the man she trusts most is really who he says he is. In Part 2 of this story, Emma shares how following her instincts led her to uncover a hidden life she never could have imagined—and the difficult lessons she learned about love, loyalty, and knowing when it's time to walk away.Are you in the Chicago, Tampa, or Orlando area and want to come see us live?!

The system failed her. She told the truth anyway.Part II picks up with Emma making the drive back to his house — not for reconciliation, but for answers she was never going to get. She arrived to find a man who looked like a total mess, said nothing about her new car, and within minutes set a large knife in front of her on the bed.What followed was assault. Coercion under the guise of reconnection, with a loaded gun and that knife within arm's reach. Completely restrained, face down, staring at red velvet curtains while Stranger Things played in the background. A phone appeared. A photo she never consented to. A chuckle.She got out the only way she knew how. Fawning. Years of trauma had taught her body exactly what to do to avoid things turning violent. When she got home and finally looked at her phone, she found two photos and a four-second video of herself — taken without her knowledge or consent. Both illegal. A week later, a lawyer by her side, she filed a police report.The DA picked up the case the same day. A felony warrant was issued the next morning. He spent two weeks on the run — attending the concert they were supposed to go to together, posting on social media, and quietly soliciting Mad Libs-style fake witness statements from strangers. Emma sent everything to the DA. They did nothing.The grand jury disposed the case. No forensic phone examination. No follow-up interview. The victim advocate stopped returning her calls. The restraining order was denied. He still has the material. He always will. Her healing journey can be interrupted any day by whatever he decides to do with it next.She is learning to live with that. And she came on this podcast anyway — because people like him thrive on secrecy, and she promised herself she would never be quiet.

Bobby and Alex discuss the long-anticipated MLB-MLBPA CBA proposals —including the Players Association's "competitive integrity tax," and the owners' hard cap and floor proposal. They debate the merits of a cap in a world where owners have a long, storied history of lying about their finances, and dig below the surface into their desperate attempt at juicing franchise values to further extract value out of a game that they put very little into. Then, they are joined by friend of the show Bradford William Davis to pivot to a conversation about MLB's inconsistently enforced domestic violence policies, opaque investigations, and mixed messaging. This episode features discussion of domestic violence. If you or someone else needs domestic violence support, you can call the National Domestic Violence Hotline at 800-799-7233 or text at 88788.Links:Buy tickets for the Tipping Pitches Brooklyn Cyclones Meetup on June 12Tipping Pitches Rockies Meetup Interest Form⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Join the Tipping Pitches Patreon ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Tipping Pitches merchandise ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Call the Tipping Pitches voicemail: 785-422-5881Tipping Pitches features original music from Steve Sladkowski of PUP.

This week on The Dating Detectives, Sarah—a therapist and longtime listener of the show—shares the story of a relationship that seemed perfect from the outside. After nearly a decade together, a shocking message forces her to question everything she thought she knew about her partner, sending her down a rabbit hole of secrets, deception, and unsettling discoveries. As Sarah unpacks the red flags she missed, the beliefs that kept her invested, and the hard lessons she learned about trust, identity, and self-worth, she offers a thoughtful and insightful perspective on what happens when the person you love turns out to be someone you never truly knew.Are you in the Chicago, Tampa, or Orlando area and want to come see us live?!

In Mark 4:35, the disciples found themselves caught in the middle of a violent storm while Jesus slept peacefully in the boat. What's powerful is that it wasn't the storm that woke Jesus — it was the sound of His disciples' voices crying out to Him.In today's episode, we talk about what it means to trust God in the middle of life's storms. Jesus wasn't afraid of the wind or the waves because even creation obeys Him. Sometimes the storm around us feels overwhelming, but our faith is not built on understanding God's activity — it's built on confidence in God's character.Romans 10 reminds us that faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the Word of God. So wherever you are today — whether you feel exhausted, uncertain, stuck, or tossed around by circumstances — we pray this episode reminds you that Jesus is still present in the storm, and He is still speaking, “Peace, be still.”We also share a trauma-informed message for women who may feel pressure to leave difficult situations before they are emotionally, mentally, spiritually, or physically ready. Healing is not linear, and shame has no place in your story. There is grace for the process, and your life has immeasurable value.You are loved by your Creator.You are not forgotten.And the storm does not get the final word.If you need support:National Domestic Violence Hotline: 800-799-SAFE (7233)National Human Trafficking Hotline: 888-373-7888Text “BEFREE” to 233733

Three weeks. That's all it took.Emma spent five years healing after a particularly brutal relationship ended in 2018. Five years of solo travel, self-improvement, building herself back up from the inside out. By the time she met him at a tattoo shop, she was — by her own account — at a psychological peak. More extroverted than she'd ever been. Solo traveling. Thriving. Finally ready.He was stoic. Grounded. Rough around the edges with what looked like a soft inside. He even knew someone she'd lost. Something about that pulled her in.He was a covert narcissist. And she had almost exclusively experienced overt ones. Which is exactly why she almost missed it.Emma's story moves fast — because the relationship did. Within weeks of officially dating, the mask began to slip. The hot and cold behavior that left her shaking. The 3am meltdowns that kept her from sleeping before early morning shifts while he rolled out of bed at noon. The sexual boundary violations he would reframe as her fault the moment she named them. The drinking she didn't understand the extent of until it was too late. The way he screamed at his teenage son in the kitchen over something menial — arms by his sides, not flinching — and how it reminded Emma of herself as a little girl.And then there was the premonition. Sitting in his bedroom, out of nowhere, a clear and vivid image she couldn't explain. Him. A gun. Someone on the other end of it. She filed it away and didn't tell anyone.Her mom had the same feeling the same weekend. Neither of them knew.Emma is thoughtful, self-aware, and unflinching about the moments she wishes she'd moved differently — and honest about why she didn't. She talks about what it feels like when your mind knows you need to leave, but your body has become chemically hooked on someone the way it hooks on a drug. She talks about what it means to date a covert narcissist when every abuser you've ever known was overt. And she introduces us to a man who described himself — out loud, without irony, at 45 years old — as chaos incarnate.He wasn't wrong.This is Part I. It does not end where you think it will.Narcissists, Gaslighters, & Cheaters, Oh My! — real folks, real stories, survival & healing.

In this episode of Narcissist Apocalypse, we discuss how smart devices and smart technology can be used as tools of coercive control, surveillance, harassment, and post-separation abuse. Brandon talks about smart locks, cameras, doorbell systems, thermostats, smart speakers, connected cars, family accounts, AirTags, GPS trackers, and children's devices. He explains how these tools can be used to create fear, doubt, isolation, sleep deprivation, and a sense that the survivor is being watched even when they cannot prove it. The episode also explores tech-enabled gaslighting, intimate partner surveillance, AI-assisted monitoring, and the importance of safety planning before removing access or changing accounts. Brandon also shares practical steps for taking inventory, documenting incidents, checking shared access, creating new accounts, sweeping physical spaces, and finding tech-safety support.

This episode is for every woman who longs for healing but isn't sure where to begin. REFLECTION QUESTIONS What lie about yourself have you been carrying so long it feels like the truth—and what might God be whisperinginstead?Where has your pain been leaking onto others—and what would it look like to invite Jesus into that place beforeanyone gets cut?Is there something God might be whispering to you—but you're afraid to believe because it feels too strange, too personal, or too hopeful?What part of your story have you been grieving alone—and what might it feel like to let God sit in that sorrow withyou?What comfort from God have you received in the past that you've forgotten—and what would it mean to remember it today?Every Kind of FreeKindle: https://amzn.to/4b1Q2ZNPaperback: https://amzn.to/4bACRz7Hardcover: https://amzn.to/4bJ8xm7 Audible: https://amzn.to/3OeBCgbFREE (or Super Affordable) ResourcesStories Only Strangers Can See e-book: ⁠⁠https://form.jotform.com/250124488113147⁠⁠If You're in a Difficult Marriage:Safety First: If you're not safe—or if you or your children are being physically or sexually harmed—pleasecreate a safety plan and reach out to the National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233).

In this episode, we dive into one of the most chilling and heartbreaking cases we've ever covered, unraveling the story of a seemingly perfect family whose reality was far darker than anyone could have imagined. We follow the timeline from the early morning hours of August 13th through the unfolding investigation, piecing together the moments, relationships, and warning signs that led to an unthinkable outcome. But beyond the true crime, there's something else here that stopped us in our tracks. As we explore police body cam footage and overlooked moments from the case, we uncover eerie details that have left viewers questioning what's really being captured. Voices, shadowy apparitions, and possible messages from the other side. Is it coincidence, or could it be the voices of a family, still trying to be heard after their story was cut short? If someone in your life is showing warning signs of domestic danger please reach out to the National Domestic Violence Hotline at 1-800-799-7233. It's free, confidential, and available 24/7.

In this episode we welcome a returning guest Vanessa, who encourages us to keep using our spiritual gifts even after being hurt and not to rush the rebuilding and healing process. Vanessa describes “rebuilt to last” as returning to basics, letting God guide growth, and allowing time to heal especially between relationships and during difficult seasons. She shares how God continues rebuilding her professionally through patience, wisdom, and humility, and uses the analogy of maintaining a spiritual “house” through daily renewal, prayer, and aligning with God's Word. They discuss staying connected through prayer, worship, community, and Scripture, using your voice in church settings, prioritizing love over performative religion, forgiving others, and recognizing it's sometimes necessary to leave a church that isn't biblically aligned while keeping loyalty to Christ above leadership. If you enjoyed this episode, listen to Vanessa's episode from Power of Prayer series ^_^https://www.buzzsprout.com/1643374/episodes/18007524Send us Fan MailJust Know Though Podcast offers a safe space to discuss mental health, including topics like depression and past trauma.

This week on the podcast, our guest Hannah shares the terrifying story of how a whirlwind romance that felt like a fairytale quickly unraveled into something far darker. After meeting a man on Hinge who seemed perfect in every way, the two fell fast, married within months, and began building what Hannah believed was her dream life. But when subtle behavioral changes and suspicious late nights started piling up, Hannah's intuition led her into full detective mode — uncovering a shocking double life involving lies, manipulation, and escalating abuse. In this emotional and deeply intense first part of a two-part story, Hannah walks through the moment she realized the man she trusted was not who he claimed to be, and how quickly love can turn dangerous behind closed doors.Are you in the Chicago, Tampa, or Orlando area and want to come see us live?!

On Friday's show: Houston in recent days and weeks has been shaken by a string of devastating domestic violence homicides, including a murder-suicide involving the prominent owners of several local restaurants and their children. The head of the Harris County Domestic Violence Coordinating Council contemplates what these stories reveal and what can be done to prevent them. And we examine what law enforcement and nonprofits are doing to intervene.*If you or someone you know is experiencing domestic violence, call the National Domestic Violence Hotline at 800-799-SAFE (7233) or visit thehotline.org.Also this hour: Our panel of non-experts breaks down The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly of the week.And there have been all kinds of adaptations of Shakespeare's plays, putting them in unusual settings.

Angel was raised by a woman she called the Vortex of Solitude. Someone who could walk into a room, and you could feel the darkness.She was also, in Angel's words, genuinely funny. Charismatic. Someone Angel loved — the way you love the mother you were given, even when she was the one doing the damage.Angel's story starts at the very beginning. A car accident when Angel was a year and a half that took her mother's leg and became the foundation of a mythology Angel spent decades trying to fact-check. A childhood of hoarding, drug addiction, pathological lying, and volatility that could flip from fine to catastrophic over a Diet Pepsi. A mother who befriended Angel's friends to preemptively spin the narrative. Who made Angel stay up through the night babysitting her in case she dropped a cigarette in the hoard. Who missed her high school graduation because she didn't clean a house she wasn't allowed to throw anything away in. Who, when sixteen-year-old Angel, exhausted out of her mind at dawn, said, " Mom, your hair is so pretty today — cut off a lock of hair, shoved it in her hand, and told her she'd be dead by morning.Angel still has the hair.She talks about what it means to grow up not knowing your own history — because when a narcissist tells your story long enough, even your own memories can't be trusted. She talks about the sexual abuse she reported, and wasn't believed. The DCS call that went nowhere. The first marriage that followed directly from a childhood that taught her she deserved exactly what she got.And she talks about the moment everything changed. Rocking her six-month-old son in the nursery, looking at this tiny person she was now responsible for, and understanding with complete clarity — if I don't change, the cycle continues.She walked into that room one person. She walked out different.Angel is Behk's friend, and this one felt like a long-overdue catch-up session and a masterclass in survival all at once. She processes with humor, tells the truth without apology, and is proof that the survivor gene is absolutely real.Narcissists, Gaslighters, & Cheaters, Oh My! — real folks, real stories, survival & healing.Content Warning: This episode contains discussions of narcissistic abuse, physical and sexual abuse, parental neglect, childhood trauma, substance abuse and addiction, self-harm, suicidal ideation, sexual assault, and intergenerational trauma.

In this tender, honest episode, we talk about living without closure — the unanswered questions, the loose ends,and the ache of stories that don't tie up neatly.

If you're longing for peace in unresolved places, this episode will gently guide you toward hope.Reflection Questions1.  Where are you longing for closure right now, and how might Jesus be offering comfort even without the answers?2. What parts of your story do you sense God inviting you to look at with compassion and truth?3. Where might God be inviting you to stop trying to rewrite your past and instead let Him restore your future?4. What storm in your life feels relentless, and what would it look like to let Jesus speak peace into it? FREE (or Super Affordable) ResourcesStories Only Strangers Can See e-book: ⁠⁠https://form.jotform.com/250124488113147⁠⁠If You're in a Difficult Marriage:Safety First: If you're not safe—or if you or your children are being physically or sexually harmed—please create a safety plan and reach out to the National Domestic Violence Hotline(1-800-799-7233).

In this deeply unsettling two-part story, Abby shares how growing up in the rigid, high-control world of IBLP shaped her understanding of love, obedience, and self-worth, and ultimately set the stage for a relationship she didn't have the tools to question. From a childhood defined by isolation, fear, and forced compliance, to a young adulthood marked by loneliness, manipulation, and a desperate search for safety, Abby's story reveals how early indoctrination can blur the line between devotion and control. As she begins to break free from her upbringing she meets a man who seems to offer everything she's been missing. But as their whirlwind relationship accelerates into engagement and marriage, subtle red flags begin to surface, leaving listeners to wonder: is this finally love, or just another version of the control she's always known? This is Part 1 of Abby's story—and trust us, it only gets more complicated from here. Click here to join our Patreon!

This week on The Dating Detectives, the hosts sit down with Sydnee, a resilient mother whose seemingly safe, stable relationship with a “gentle giant” slowly unravels into a chilling double life filled with deception, manipulation, and emotional abuse. What begins as a story of healing and unexpected love takes a dark turn as Sydnee uncovers years of secret behavior, gaslighting, and control—but by then, she's already given up her independence to become a stay-at-home mom, leaving her financially and socially trapped in a life she can't escape. As she fights to protect her children and rebuild her autonomy from the ground up, Sydnee shares a powerful story of survival that exposes how abuse doesn't always look the way we expect—and how quickly trust, love, and dependence can become a cage if you're not careful.Click here to join our Patreon!

This week on The Dating Detectives, we hear Tracy Hall's jaw-dropping story of dating one of Australia's most notorious con men. What begins as a seemingly healthy, slow-burn romance with a supportive, emotionally intelligent partner turns into a shocking unraveling of identity, trust, and financial security when Tracy discovers the man she loved never existed at all. As she pieces together an 18-month relationship built on meticulous lies, Tracy shares how even the smartest, most capable people can be targeted, manipulated, and ultimately betrayed—and how she fought to rebuild her life in the aftermath. This episode is a powerful reminder that scams don't look like scams when you're inside them.

What is Happening with The Bachelorette? w/ Reality Steve Dive into the world of reality TV analysis with Mike Bloom and guest Reality Steve Carbone as they discuss the latest news about The Bachelorette's recently canceled season. This episode explains the events leading to the cancellation, examining how Taylor Frankie Paul's domestic violence history and a newly released video influenced ABC's decision just days before the planned premiere. Mike and Reality Steve review Taylor Frankie Paul's path from social media celebrity to Bachelorette lead, noting how her past, documented in police reports and covered by entertainment news, did not initially deter ABC or Hulu. They outline the sequence of events: Taylor's media appearances, the investigation into new allegations, and the suspension of The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives. The discussion highlights how new video evidence influenced network executives and public opinion. Key highlights from the discussion include: ABC and Hulu's decision process after seeing the video surface online despite prior knowledge from police records. Analysis of Taylor's complicated relationship history and the network’s choice of “stunt casting” to revive a franchise in decline. Perspectives on accountability, Taylor's released statements, and the contrasting reactions from fans and commentators. The ripple effects on production, sponsorships, and the show’s future, including speculation about possible legal actions and the fate of other contestants. Thoughts on whether The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives will resume filming, how reality TV networks vet future leads, and the shift in focus to Taylor's family and well-being. The episode raises pointed questions: Will this cancellation change how reality TV casts its stars? What happens to the franchise next, or to Taylor and Dakota's ongoing drama? Listen to unravel how real-life controversy shapes the fate of a reality TV giant, and catch insights from Reality Steve's daily coverage.
