For many Native people, the version of California history taught in school does not tell the whole story. For Brad Munoa, a citizen of the Pechanga Band of Indians, the inspiration for “People of the West”, a new ten-part docuseries came after learning about a California history presentation at his son’s school. Munoa says Native American history received only a brief mention, while much of the focus was placed on a version of California history that overlooked Native voices and experiences. That moment sparked an idea. “So I wanted to make a series that would reach the youth in a compelling, cinematic way. Dramatic recreations, beautiful animations when we couldn't depict something in real life. One of the biggest archival libraries of stills and videos of California history that I think exists on the planet. We put that all together in 10 1-hour episodes. I'm telling you, it's amazing.” Munoa says the series, which took over two years to create, also touches on his family's own experiences. One scene was inspired by the love story of his grandparents. He says his grandfather was afraid to tell his future wife that he was Native because of the prejudice Native people faced at the time. Years later, watching actors bring that story to life on screen left him in tears. “I just started crying and sobbing. I explained that story was from my family history specifically. It was an honor to have them portray it.” Munoa says the series is not just about the past. He hopes Native youth see themselves reflected in stories that have often been overlooked and that viewers leave with a deeper understanding of California’s first peoples. View this post on Instagram A post shared by People of The West (@peopleofthewestseries) While the project has generated interest, Munoa says it has not yet been picked up by a streaming service. He says that is intentional. “We made the whole thing on spec without preselling it to a studio ahead of time. When you do that, yes, you get funding, but you also get oversight. And the studios get to determine final cut and get to suggest taking things out, adding stuff in. We wanted to tell the story without those handcuffs. So we made the whole thing on spec without preselling it. Now that we have it, we're trying to find distribution. “I just want everybody who watches the series to come away with a new profound understanding of history from a native perspective. I'm almost 100% sure that if they just watch with an open mind, it will inform all of their decision making going forward in a good way, so that we can build a better future for our kids.” Completing the project came with sacrifices. Munoa says work often took him away from his family. Now that the series is finished, he says he’s looking forward to making up for lost time and being more present with the people who supported him throughout the journey. “My wife has shouldered a lot of the responsibilities at home in her effort to support me, but she's been neglected, my kids have been neglected. They call me the dad from Hook as a joke. You know before he goes to Neverland in Hook, he's consumed with work and on his phone, he's missing baseball games and stuff. So I want to balance that all back and be there with my kids and wife, and tend to my land on the reservation.” The ten-part series held its world premiere on June 20 at Hollywood’s famed Chinese Theatre as part of the Dances With Films festival. Munoa says he hopes audiences leave the theater with a deeper understanding of California’s Native peoples and the stories that helped shape the state.

Retournez en enfance Peter Pan et Wendy. Vous connaissez la belle histoire : celle de l'enfant qui ne voulait pas grandir et qui persuade la jolie Wendy de le suivre au pays imaginaire. Mais, le duo Peter et Wendy cache une réalité bien plus sombre... Entre syndrome, psychologie et relation toxique, nous allons vous raconter l'envers du décors de ce duo mythique de Disney. Maman Wendy Peter Pan considère qu'il n'a jamais eu de maman. Il a toujours cherché une figure maternelle de substitution. Lorsqu'il arrive chez les Darling, le "capitaine" de Neverland confie sans attendre à sa nouvelle amie Wendy : "Je viens souvent chez toi, le soir à ta fenêtre pour écouter les histoires que ta maman vous raconte parce que moi, je ne connais pas d'histoires." Il insiste : "Nous n'avons pas de maman." Il voit en Wendy, au visage céleste et au caractère apaisé, la figure maternelle dont il a toujours manqué et rêvé.

Le garçon qui ne voulait pas grandir Pour ne pas grandir, Peter Pan s'est créé un monde. A Neverland, le temps n'existe pas, à la demande de Peter. Si le temps n'existe pas, le temps ne passe pas et l'enfance devient donc éternelle… Dis comme ça, ça fait sourire. Pourtant, si on creuse un peu, Peter Pan n'a pas juste l'intention de rester enfant. Il est carrément angoissé à l'idée même de quitter la tendre enfance et de devenir adulte. On ne l'appelle pas "le garçon qui ne voulait pas grandir" pour rien… En fait, ce phénomène porte même un nom : "le syndrome de Peter Pan", ou encore "le complexe de Peter Pan".

Fourteen counts. Not guilty on every single one. Twenty-one years later, Netflix has reopened the case — and one of Michael Jackson's own defense witnesses is about to change his story. In June 2005, Michael Jackson walked out of a Santa Barbara courtroom acquitted of all 14 child sexual abuse charges. Netflix's new three-part docuseries "The Verdict" revisits that 2005 trial, and in Part 1 Tyrella and Nikita break it down episode by episode — the Martin Bashir interview that started it all, the raid on Neverland, and the fingerprint evidence at the center of the case. We also get into what the documentary left out: the surprise witness who blew up the "captivity" story, and the "neutral" family friend with an undisclosed tie to the prosecution. This is Part 1. Part 2 — who flipped, and where the estate stands in 2026 — drops Thursday (out now for patrons). Content warning: discusses child sexual abuse allegations, grooming testimony, and substance use.

Did Michael Jackson fake his iconic high-pitched voice? Eyewitness reporter Wendy Burch was inside the 2005 trial, and she just revealed the chilling courtroom testimony the public was never meant to hear.Netflix's "Michael Jackson: The Verdict" brought the trial back into the spotlight, but it missed the most disturbing revelations from inside the Santa Maria courthouse. In this episode of TZ Scandal, Tom Zenner and Kato Kaelin sit down with veteran Los Angeles TV reporter Wendy Burch, who sat directly behind Jackson during the trial. Wendy breaks down the exact moment the trial exposed Jackson's carefully manufactured public persona—including security guard testimony detailing Jackson's actual "low baritone" voice, the bizarre deliveries made to his triple-locked bedroom, and the staggering visual evidence that left those inside the courtroom absolutely convinced of his guilt.This is not a documentary recap.

Braga, King, and Ski talk about the third installment in the Twisted Childhood Universe, Peter Pan's Neverland Nightmare. It's a flat out horror movie about a guy who kills and kidnaps kids and happens to be named Peter. It's brutal in a lot of ways. Is it any good? Listen!

What does cracking open green-shiny rocks in a German preschool have to do with feeding eight billion people without oil and gas? In this episode, Jesse sits down with Oliver "Oli" Jagoutz, professor at MIT and director of the Earth Resources Laboratory (ERL), for a wide-ranging conversation that travels from the Himalayas to the wastewater treatment plant — and makes the case that geology might be one of the most societally relevant sciences of the coming decades.Oli traces his winding path into the field: the son of a cosmochemist who dragged him along on mantle-sampling campaigns, a self-described "failed" almost-med-student who spent years climbing, traveling, and working as a nurse before discovering that he could inhale geology once he finally found it. His advice to late bloomers — it's not your age that matters, it's that you've figured out what you actually want.From there the conversation digs into the Kohistan arc, the spectacular tilted-on-its-side cross-section of ancient island-arc crust now exposed in the Himalayas, and what it tells us about how continental crust forms (magmatic differentiation, water, and density sorting). Oli explains why he came to believe the textbook story of the India–Asia collision was wrong — arguing the real collision happened closer to 40 million years ago, not 50 — and why that timing matters for understanding how mountain-building and tropical weathering of calcium- and magnesium-rich rocks may have reshaped global climate.That climate thread becomes the pivot point of the episode. Oli describes walking away from the decades-old "origin of continental crust" question to chase problems with real-world stakes, and lays out the four areas his lab now tackles: carbon sequestration, critical minerals, geothermal energy, and geological hydrogen. Along the way he challenges the standard weathering-CO2 story (betting instead on the organic side — clays protecting buried organic matter), and walks through a genuinely clever carbon-sequestration scheme that uses sulfur-reducing bacteria and industrial waste gypsum to lock up carbon while making money by recovering elemental sulfur — a chemical the world will desperately need for fertilizer in a post-oil economy.The episode closes on practical wisdom for students: master the fundamentals, stay broad, actually go to the talks (not just the beer), use tenure to fund "Neverland science," and recognize that an outsider's perspective — connecting dots others haven't — is often where the best ideas come from. Oli also explains how AI-driven, probabilistic "hygrometry" of whole-rock data is opening a new path for mineral prospectivity, and why he thinks metamorphic petrology — the chemistry of hot fluids reacting with rock underground — is the science of the future for mining, energy, and carbon storage alike.In this episodeHow a cosmochemist dad and a broken finger started a career in geologyWhy coming to the field "late" can be an advantageThe Kohistan arc and the puzzle of how continental crust is madeRe-dating the India–Asia collision — and why ~40 Ma changes the climate storyWeathering, CO2 drawdown, and the case for the organic carbon pathwayTurning sewage, gypsum, and bacteria into profitable carbon sequestrationSulfur, fertilizer, and the hidden product tree of oil and gasCritical minerals, geothermal, and geological hydrogen at MIT's ERLAI + whole-rock geochemistry for finding copper depositsWhy metamorphic petrology is the way of the futureAdvice for students who want to use geology to solve big problemsOli's "best day as a geologist"About the guestOliver Jagoutz is a professor at MIT and director of the Earth Resources Laboratory. His work spans igneous and metamorphic petrology, the tectonic evolution of the Himalayas, links between mountain-building and climate, and applied geoscience for energy, critical minerals, and carbon sequestration.Memorable quotes"Don't get discouraged when the community thinks you are wrong. You're probably right.""Just because I haven't worked on it doesn't mean I don't have anything to offer.""If you can't make it a business, it won't work.""Every day I go into the office and think: today I'm gonna find something awesome."Download the CampGeo app now at this link.

www.patreon.com/theconspiracypodcastPart 1 was the rise. This is the fall.We pick up in the '90s, when the world that had made Michael Jackson started turning on him. The tabloids had a field day. The hyperbaric chamber. The Elephant Man's bones. A baby dangled off a balcony in Berlin. One by one, the story of the greatest entertainer who ever lived began to curdle into something else entirely.Then came the allegations.A dentist who drugged his own kid to get a confession. A $20 million demand to stay quiet. A 2003 documentary that aired to 48 million people and changed everything. A trial with 14 counts, a circus outside the courthouse, and a jury that came back not guilty — on every single one.And then, four years later, a rented mansion in Holmby Hills. A doctor on his phone with a cocktail waitress. A call to 911 that came 90 minutes too late. And the most famous human being on earth, gone at 50.We get into the death, the theories, the $400 million lawsuit still pending, and the question nobody has a clean answer to — was it negligence, a cash grab, a conspiracy, or all three?We also give you our takes.

www.patreon.com/theconspiracypodcastBefore the moonwalk. Before the glove. Before Neverland, before the tabloids, before the world decided it knew exactly who Michael Jackson was — there was a kid in Gary, Indiana who wasn't allowed to touch his father's guitar.Most people know the legend. Few know the price.Michael Jackson didn't have a childhood. He had rehearsals. He had a belt across the chair and a father who saw dollar signs where other dads saw sons. By the time he was eight years old he was performing in nightclubs, watching the adult world at its worst, and being told that was normal. It wasn't normal. None of it was.And yet — out of all of that — came Thriller. The moonwalk. Four consecutive number one singles before he was twelve. A catalog worth billions. A chimp in a matching outfit eating dinner at the table.But also Neverland. Also the allegations. Also a death that still doesn't sit right.This week we start at the beginning — Gary, Indiana, Joe Jackson, the Apollo Theater, Motown, Quincy Jones, and the private world Michael built when he finally had enough money to build whatever he wanted. We get into the stuff most people don't know, the stuff that actually explains everything, and we set the table for what's coming in Part 2.And trust us — Part 2 gets dark.Timestamps:00:00 — Intro, Patreon shoutouts & gas prices somehow leading to Michael Jackson04:00 — Why we're covering MJ now & our bias going in (we love him, sue us)07:00 — Gary, Indiana: the two-bedroom house, 11 people, and Joe Jackson11:00 — Joe discovers the boys' talent & the rehearsals begin — belt on the chair13:00 — Michael describes the abuse & why the sight of his father made him physically ill15:00 — "Big Nose" — the nickname that quietly explains everything about his face16:00 — The Jackson 5 is born & Michael joins at six years old18:00 — Winning the Apollo, Gladys Knight, Berry Gordy & the Motown signing19:00 — Diana Ross "presents" them — the marketing ploy that worked perfectly20:00 — Four consecutive number ones straight out the gate, Jacksonmania hits22:00 — Growing up backstage in nightclubs — what Michael saw at age 7 and 823:00 — His Grammy speech: "My childhood was taken away from me"25:00 — Was it worth it?

This week we're getting into the Peter Pan Economy: what it actually means to come of age in a generation that can't afford to grow up, and why that's both a wound and a strange kind of gift.We were promised that adulthood would and should look a certain way: house, kids, stability. Instead, we got girl dinner, situationships, and a deep sense that none of this feels real. The same generation that can't afford a house is also the one reclaiming their childhoods, leaning into whimsy, and asking "how can I have fun?" as a life philosophy. The goal isn't to stay in Neverland forever... but to take a piece of it with us wherever we go.Follow the podcast on all platforms

Skywalking Through Neverland: A Star Wars / Disney Fan Podcast
The Season 1 finale of STAR WARS: MAUL - SHADOW LORD delivered everything we hoped for: emotional betrayals, jaw-dropping visuals, terrifying horror vibes, and the long-awaited confrontation between Maul and Darth Vader. Richard and Sarah break down Chapters 9 and 10, from Dryden Vos and Crimson Dawn connections to Devon's tragic fall toward the dark side, and the MANY deaths along the way. Did Brander Lawson survive? We want your opinion, because Richard and Sarah are split! MAUL - SHADOW LORD composers Kevin, Deana, and Sean Kiner sneak in many musical references to "Duel of the Fates," "Battle of the Heroes," and "Anakin's Dark Deeds," all from the Prequel trilogy. We analyze how each of these callbacks help the overall storytelling of this series. One of the standout elements of the finale is Vader himself. His silent entrance through the misty forest instantly joins the ranks of iconic Vader reveals from A New Hope, Rogue One, and even Splinter of the Mind's Eye. The horror-inspired music, jump scares, and brutal fighting style made Vader feel unstoppable. Meanwhile, Maul manipulated events exactly as planned, allowing Devon's rage over Master Daki's death to push her into becoming his apprentice. The symbolism throughout the finale — broken bridges, collapsing temples, and fractured Jedi ideals — gave the battle emotional weight beyond the lightsaber clashes. We get into all of it! Is this the first Maul vs Vader battle in Star Wars history?While it's their first major onscreen showdown, the two previously dueled in the 2001 comic Star Wars Tales #9. Richard and Sarah explore that deep-cut Expanded Universe story. PODCAST SPONSORS Small World Vacations is an official sponsor of Skywalking Through Neverland.

Hidden Killers With Tony Brueski | True Crime News & Commentary
Michael Jackson walked out of a California courthouse a free man. Then he left the country. Then he never set foot in Neverland again. Whatever the verdict meant legally, it cost him something no jury could return.This episode is the 2005 criminal trial in full. The Martin Bashir documentary where Jackson held a boy's hand on camera and told the world that sharing his bed with children wasn't sexual. The charges that followed. The teenage cancer survivor who testified Jackson abused him. The prosecution's pattern witnesses who described behavior stretching back a decade. And the defense's systematic demolition of the accuser's family — a mother who'd lied under oath, committed welfare fraud, and alienated the jury so completely that one juror called her a scam artist.Then there are the defense witnesses who matter beyond this trial. Macaulay Culkin said nothing happened. Wade Robson said nothing happened — under oath, clearly, convincingly. Robson's testimony helped acquit Jackson. And then Robson reversed everything. That reversal is the next episode. But this one matters because the acquittal is the most misunderstood moment in this entire saga. Not guilty is a legal determination. Some jurors believed Jackson probably did abuse children. They just couldn't convict on this case, with this family, under this burden of proof.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

This week, Dana, Steve, and Nadira Goffe assess if we as a culture can ever really escape Neverland— namely, the gigantic and fraught legacy of Michael Jackson. They unpack the biopic Michael. Directed by Antoine Fuqua, starring Jackson's own nephew Jaafar Jackson, and produced by much of the Jackson family, the film is chock full of musical numbers and light on the troubling aspects of the singer's life. Does it ever rise above King of Pop hagiography? They discuss.Next, they take up Half Man, the new limited series from Baby Reindeer creator Richard Gadd. It's a brutal look at a toxic male relationship. Is its unflinching eye too unflinching? Perhaps.Finally, how can one become cultured? What does that even mean!? Such are the questions raised by T Magazine's recent special issue “How to Be Cultured.” Our panel debates the package's various high brow listicles, takes their quiz, and Nadira even makes her own culture list as rebuttal! (See below.)In an exclusive bonus episode for Slate Plus subscribers, our hosts share which cultural figures they think would make for good biopic subjects.EndorsementsNadira: The new EP NAIL from Yves, particularly the title track, and Curtis Live! the live album by Curtis Mayfield, especially the song "The Makings of You."Steve: The poem "Like the Train's Beat" by Philip Larkin.Dana: The book On Michael Jackson by Margo Jefferson about Michael Jackson's complicated cultural place.Nadira's Culture List:(Editor's Note: Nadira added two things since our discussion — we're all still staying curious and expanding our cultural horizons!)“Throw Some Ds on It” — Rich Boy (Song; 2007)“Jealous Guy” — Donny Hathaway covering John Lennon live (Song; 1972)Any vlogger on YouTube, but particularly the work of Casey NeistatHappily Ever After: Fairy Tales for Every Child (TV Show; 1995)Fleabag (TV Show; 2016-2019)Monster (Anime Series, currently avail. on Netflix; 2004)Stop Making Sense (Movie; 1984)The Devil Wears Prada (Movie; 2006)Step Up 2: The Streets (Movie; 2008)Tampopo (Movie; 1985)Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse (Movie; 2018)Original Cast Album Company (Movie; 1970)Quo Vadis, Aida?
