Clemson graduate Mark Packer returned to his alma mater last week to speak to the Fort Hill Clemson Club and to dot the "i" on the field before the Tigers' victory over Florida State. Packer has been enjoying retirement since stepping away from the ACC Network this past summer. He said working for ESPN the previous three years was highly frustrating in part because he didn't have total control over his show, and he'd get pushback whenever he stuck up for the ACC. He has plans to write a book about his professional life, and he'll include his experiences with ESPN. Packer also looks back on the iconic "Primetime with the Packman" radio show that was popular for more than a decade in North Carolina and South Carolina. He tells the remarkable story of how the 'QCB' became a fixture on the show. He also reminisces about James Brown and his entourage showing up unannounced at the Charlotte-based studios and spending a rollicking hour on the air with Packer and Co. Packer also recalls the wee hours of the Northern California night in January of 2019 when he interviewed Dabo Swinney on the field at Levi's Stadium when no one else was around. Packer thinks Swinney has to do some significant adapting to move past this disastrous season and put Clemson back on footing with the best in college football.

In 2020, the Almeda Fire ripped through Jackson County. The catastrophic blaze destroyed more than 2,600 homes between Ashland, Talent, Phoenix and Medford, according to Jefferson Public Radio. The “Think Out Loud” team traveled to Southern Oregon during the spring of 2025 and talked to residents about how they’re thinking about fire in their communities now. In Ashland, the city and the forest are tied together. The watershed, which provides the source of Ashland’s drinking water, is more than 15,000 acres of potentially combustible forestland. Chris Chambers is the city’s forestry officer. He’s been a member of Ashland Fire And Rescue since 2002 and has worked on the city’s wildfire planning efforts. Along with city, federal and tribal partners, the Ashland-based Lomakatsi Restoration Project focuses on ecological resilience in Oregon and Northern California. Its restoration projects are spread throughout the region. Marko Bey is the executive director and founder of the organization. Belinda Brown is the tribal partnerships director. Chambers, Bey and Brown shared how they think about wildfire resilience and how they approach their work in their communities during a conversation we recorded with them and first aired in June 2025.

Retired FBI agent and criminal profiler Candice DeLong explores the disturbing case of Ed Kemper, known as “The Co-Ed Killer.” In the early 1970s, young women began vanishing from the streets of Northern California. When the truth finally came to light, it revealed a killer unlike any other: a towering, soft-spoken man whose charm and intellect hid monstrous impulses. By the time he was caught, eight people – including his own mother – were dead. Only later would investigators learn that Kemper's knack for violence began years earlier. Candice examines how deep resentment, emotional isolation, and a fractured relationship with his mother fueled one of the most chilling killing sprees of the decade, and how his later cooperation with the FBI helped shape modern criminal profiling.Be the first to know about Wondery's newest podcasts, curated recommendations, and more!

Tyler Lee-Wynant grew up hearing stories about his great-great aunt, Edna Campbell Guerrero. Born in 1907 in Mendocino County, she was a native speaker of Northern Pomo, one of seven languages spoken by the Pomo people who are Indigenous to Northern California. “She was a no-nonsense person,” says Lee-Wynant, a UC Berkeley Ph.D. student in linguistics. “She was an amazing individual. She cared so deeply about passing on what she knew.”For more than 50 years, Guerrero worked with Berkeley linguists to document her language and culture. These recordings are part of the campus's California Language Archive. In them, she tells stories, describes cultural practices, says vocabulary and conjugates verbs. Whenever Lee-Wynant hears his aunt's voice, strong and determined, he knows it's his responsibility to carry on her work. As a graduate student researcher for the archive, Lee-Wynant is cataloging and analyzing a new collection that includes hours of recordings of his aunt, among other materials. “It's such a trove of information about ... my family's history,” he said. “I always get the chills whenever I listen to it because you never know what story is gonna come up.”In this episode of Berkeley Voices, Lee-Wynant shares how his aunt's recordings have opened a portal to his family's history and led him to teach their language to new generations.And in this UC Berkeley News companion piece, learn more about the linguist who created the archive's newly acquired collection, her lifetime of research with Indigenous communities and how her collection of tapes and notebooks found their way to the archive. This is the first episode of a new Berkeley Voices season, featuring UC Berkeley scholars working on life-changing research and the people whose lives are changed by it. New episodes come out on the first Thursday of every month, from November through April. Listen to the episode and read the transcript on UC Berkeley News (news.berkeley.edu/podcasts/berkeley-talks).

The salient point of our discussion today revolves around the significant weather events currently impacting various regions across the United States. We commence with the early season influences from the Pacific, which have resulted in heavy rainfall and mountain snow in the Northwest and Northern California, alongside coastal hazards affecting Oregon and the Bay Area. Furthermore, the Northeast is experiencing the aftermath of a strong cold front, characterized by brisk winds that have led to scattered outages and downed limbs in Connecticut. Additionally, Alaska's marine zones are grappling with severe freezing conditions and gale warnings, while Hawaii is under a high surf advisory, posing risks to coastal activities. We conclude with an overview of the broader weather landscape, noting the absence of active cyclones in the tropics, thus providing a comprehensive summary of the current meteorological challenges.Takeaways:* The Pacific Northwest is experiencing early season impacts, including heavy rain and mountain snow.* Connecticut has reported scattered outages and downed limbs following overnight wind bursts.* A high surf advisory is in effect for Hawaii, affecting north and east facing shores.* Coastal hazards and minor flooding are anticipated around the Bay Area during high tide periods.* Strong winds and hazardous marine conditions are expected in Long Island Sound this morning.* Minor flooding is possible in Oregon due to ongoing coastal flood warnings and high surf advisories.Sources[NWS Seattle | https://www.weather.gov/sew/][NWS Portland | https://www.weather.gov/pqr/][NWS San Francisco/Monterey | https://www.weather.gov/mtr/][NWS Boston Weather Story | https://www.weather.gov/box/weatherstory][CTInsider | https://www.ctinsider.com/weather/article/ct-road-closures-thursday-storm-damage-21142460.php][NWS Anchorage | https://www.weather.gov/afc][NWS Honolulu Watches/Warnings | https://www.weather.gov/hfo/watchwarn][NHC | https://www.nhc.noaa.gov/text/MIATWOAT.shtml][USGS Latest Earthquakes (Past Day) | https://earthquake.usgs.gov/earthquakes/map/][NWS Anchorage | https://www.weather.gov/afc][NWS “Heavy Freezing Spray Warning” summary | https://forecast.weather.gov/wwamap/wwatxtget.php?cwa=usa&wwa=Heavy+Freezing+Spray+Warning][NWS San Francisco/Monterey | https://www.weather.gov/mtr/][NWS Sacramento | https://www.weather.gov/sto/][CTInsider | https://www.ctinsider.com/weather/article/ct-road-closures-thursday-storm-damage-21142460.php][NWS Boston Weather Story | https://www.weather.gov/box/weatherstory][NWS Honolulu Watches/Warnings | https://www.weather.gov/hfo/watchwarn][NWS Honolulu Surf Forecast | https://www.weather.gov/hfo/SRF][NWS Boston Weather Story | https://www.weather.gov/box/weatherstory][Boston 25 News advisory roundup | https://www.boston25news.com/news/local/weather-alert-high-wind-warnings-watches-posted-mass-gusts-up-60-mph/3K2HHB44KBA7HDIREZHE47LVNY/][NWS Great Falls | https://www.weather.gov/tfx/][NWS New York, NY | https://www.weather.gov/okx/][PIX11 via Yahoo — wind impacts roundup | https://www.yahoo.com/news/articles/strong-damaging-winds-cause-chaos-111326054.html][NWS Portland | https://www.weather.gov/pqr/][NWS Medford (hazards & high surf) | https://www.weather.gov/mfr/][NWS Seattle | https://www.weather.gov/sew/][NWS Seattle AFD | https://forecast.weather.gov/product.php?issuedby=SEW&product=AFD&site=SEW] This is a public episode.

Dr. Robert Glover is back for his second round on Heart of Man...For anyone not yet familiar with his work, Dr. Glover is a renowned therapist, speaker, and coach, and the author of the best-selling book "No More Mr. Nice Guy". Over the last four decades, he's been shedding light on what he calls Nice Guy Syndrome and has helped countless men across the globe in life, sex, and relating. In that time he has authored four books and, in 2023, founded "Integration Nation", an international community for men.After participating alongside Robert at a five-day men's retreat with John Wineland in Northern California, I invited him back for a second conversation. Since we laid the foundations in our first episode around Nice Guy Syndrome and why Nice Guys struggle in love and life, I wanted to focus this time on dating and attraction, especially given Dr. Glover's widely popular book "Dating Essentials for Men".In this conversation we specifically explore what leads women to lose attraction to “Nice Guys,” and how men can lead more powerfully in dating and keep the spark alive in their current relationships.In this interview discover:What leads men to pre-reject themselves, and how they can start saying yes to life and walk through the doors that are already open.Our experiences of being in connection with other men, doing men's work, and how this inner work impacts our relationship to women.Why Robert does not believe in “approaching” women and why he favors an attraction model for dating.What Nice Guys get wrong about dating.What leads men to hide their sexual agenda, and how to be more honest about one's intentions.Why having a pre-sex talk and creating a clear container can be valuable before engaging with any woman.Why, in Robert's words, women are “sexual Ferraris,” and men are “sexual mopeds,” and what that actually points to.What positive emotional tension is, why it matters to women, and practical ways to create it.Why the meaning of life is to get our hearts broken, and consequently, that the key to life is learning to suffer well.As I see it, this is an illuminating and practical conversation for any man ready to move beyond patterns of Nice Guy behavior in the realms of attraction and dating, so you can lead with more honest desire, grounded confidence, and real connection.—Connect with Alex Lehmann:

Song: In This House Music by: Karisha Longaker of MaMuse   Notes: Today we get “right in the river, totally listening, totally all in” with MaMuse, the duo of Sorah Nutting and Karisha Longaker, whose description of songcatching is what I just quoted. I came out of our conversation thinking about so many things -- how we see and appreciate those we love, kindness as our common wealth, danceable songs, being led by feeling and what's insanely fun, and especially house rules for how we be in the world... which comes from "In This House." I was singing harmony with them by the time we sang the song the second time, so you'll hear me making stuff up... partly because of the big, beautiful permission Karisha and Sorah give each other and us to celebrate creativity. I hope you feel that extra space and encouragement, too, after you sing with us!   Songwriter Info: MaMuse (“Ma” as in Mamma; “Muse” as in the one who inspires) was born out of a collaboration between songwriters Karisha Longaker and Sorah Nutting. 2008 was a year of great alchemy. Fires erupted in Northern California, a great wind of inspiration blew through, catalyzing a series of songs written from the soil and rivers, ash and heat of Chico where these two musicians met. In the early days these troubadours toted instruments around town by bicycle and shared their songs at farmers markets, community gatherings, small cafes and festivals. Not too long after, these two voices became iconic to the Chico community, representing idyllic values of friendship, community, love for nature and care for Self and World. The love spread, sisterhood held strong through two decades of LIFE: children, relationships arriving and dissolving, making home in many new places.  MaMuse songs such as “We Shall Be Known” and “Hallelujah” have sprouted wings and are now sung at the bed sides of birthing mothers, round campfires, at weddings and funerals... All places where people are gathered to celebrate and to mourn. These are songs born of the Folk lineage; songs for all of us.   Sharing Info: The song is free to share but Karisha and Sorah always welcome financial and/or networking support if/when folks are so moved.   Song Learning Time Stamps: Start time of teaching: 00:03:56 Start time of reprise: 01:03:15   Links: Show info, bookings and newsletter signup: www.mamuse.org  Instagram: www.instagram.com/mamusemusic  Facebook: www.facebook.com/MaMuseMusic  Patreon: www.patreon.com/mamuse Download and contribute to recorded music funds: mamuse.bandcamp.com  Song Village in Santa Cruz: https://www.songvillage.net/  Kirtan: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kirtan  ReMuse: https://mamuse.bandcamp.com/album/remuse  Patrick/FunkPharm who produced ReMuse: https://www.instagram.com/funkpharm/  Tidal as a subscription platform: https://tidal.com/  Community Choir Leadership Training in Canada: https://www.communitychoirleadership.com/  Garrison Keillor's Prairie Home Companion duet competition October 2012: https://www.prairiehome.org/shows/47951.html  Arnaé Batson: https://www.eomega.org/people/arnae-batson  Scott Elliot Ferreter (guitar and bass): https://www.scottelliottferreter.com/  Trying Time album: https://open.spotify.com/album/3BSIiZwg5MdqY6OuVLRMdR  Nathan Dittle (keyboard/piano): https://www.instagram.com/redbeardthecat/  Songs in the Key of Life by Stevie Wonder: https://open.spotify.com/album/6YUCc2RiXcEKS9ibuZxjt0  Blue by Joni Mitchell: https://open.spotify.com/album/1vz94WpXDVYIEGja8cjFNa  Aimée Ringle – Human and Tender: https://aimeeringle.bandcamp.com/album/human-and-tender  A Breath of Song conversation with Aimée Ringle: https://www.abreathofsong.com/episodes--show-notes/160-o-spirit-guide-me-to-those-i-need-with-guest-aimee-ringle#/  Melanie DeMore: https://melaniedemore.com/  A Breath of Song conversation with Melanie DeMore: https://www.abreathofsong.com/episodes--show-notes/175-one-footlead-with-love-with-guest-melanie-demore#/    Nuts & Bolts: 4:4, major, harmonized, call and echo   Join this community of people who love to use song to help navigate life?

The prevailing meteorological conditions today warrant significant attention, as a formidable Pacific atmospheric river continues to inundate the Northwestern region of the United States. With the advent of heavy precipitation, coupled with mountain snow and elevated surf conditions, we must remain vigilant regarding the potential for localized flooding and hazardous weather. The National Weather Service has issued flash flood risks, particularly along the northern California and southwestern Oregon coastlines, extending through Thursday morning. Moreover, high wind warnings are in effect, suggesting that residents should prepare for potential power outages and hazardous conditions. As we navigate through these tumultuous weather patterns, I urge all listeners to remain informed and take necessary precautions for their safety.Takeaways:* The Northwest is currently experiencing a significant atmospheric river, resulting in heavy precipitation and hazardous conditions.* Coastal areas in Northern California and Southwest Oregon face a marginal risk of flash flooding through Thursday morning.* High wind warnings and marine gale headlines are issued across multiple states, indicating dangerous weather conditions.* Preparedness for power outages and tree damage is advised due to anticipated adverse weather impacts this evening.* Severe weather warnings extend into New England, with expected wind gusts reaching up to 65 mph overnight.* Winter weather advisories are in effect for mountainous regions in Montana, signaling potential snow and reduced visibility.Sources[WPC | https://www.wpc.ncep.noaa.gov/qpf/ero.php?day=1&opt=curr][SPC | https://www.spc.noaa.gov/products/outlook/day1otlk.html][NWS Boston | https://www.weather.gov/box/][NWS Gray (ME) | https://www.weather.gov/gyx/][USGS Latest Earthquakes (Past Day) | https://earthquake.usgs.gov/earthquakes/map/?baseLayer=terrain&format=dyfi&listOnlyShown=true&range=search&search=%7B%22starttime%22%3A%22-1+day%22%2C%22producttype%22%3A%22dyfi%22%2C%22orderby%22%3A%22time%22%7D][NOAA Marine FZAK52 | https://www.ndbc.noaa.gov/data/Forecasts/FZAK52.PAFC.html][NWS Eureka hazards & ZFP | https://www.weather.gov/eka/][Cal OES pre-deployment update, Nov 4 | https://news.caloes.ca.gov/governor-newsom-pre-deploys-emergency-resources-ahead-of-significant-storm-impacts-in-northern-california/][NWS Gray (GYX) | https://www.weather.gov/gyx/][NWS Caribou (CAR) | https://www.weather.gov/car/][NWS Boston/Norton main page | https://www.weather.gov/box/][NWS Boston “Weather Story” | https://www.weather.gov/box/weatherstory][NWS Detroit/Pontiac — USCG Sector Detroit marine dashboard| https://www.weather.gov/dtx/uscg_sectordetroit][NWS Billings WWA | https://www.weather.gov/byz/][NWS Great Falls | https://www.weather.gov/tfx/][NWS Gray (covers NH) | https://www.weather.gov/gyx/][NWS Albany | https://www.weather.gov/aly/][NWS Marine — South of Long Island ANZ815 | https://forecast.weather.gov/shmrn.php?mz=anz815&syn=anz898][NWS Cleveland Quick Brief/Advisories | https://www.weather.gov/cle/quick_brief][NWS Cleveland Marine | https://www.weather.gov/cle/marine_forecast][NWS Medford hazards | https://www.weather.gov/mfr/][Medford High Surf/Coastal Flood text | https://forecast.weather.gov/showsigwx.php?product1=Coastal+Flood+Watch&warnzone=ORZ021&lat=43.6598&lon=-124.1928][NWS Burlington | https://www.weather.gov/btv/][NWS Seattle hazards | https://www.weather.gov/sew/][NWS Flood Watch text (Mason Co.) | https://forecast.weather.gov/wwamap/wwatxtget.php?cwa=usa&wwa=flood+watch] This is a public episode.

How do very small galaxies form? What's going on inside them? And what happens when black holes collide? To find out, Dr. Charles Liu and co-host Allen Liu welcome astrophysicist and “Galaxy Detective” Dr. Charlotte Olsen from New York City College of Technology – and you can call her Chuck, too! As always, though, we start off with the day's joyfully cool cosmic thing, the latest announcement from LIGO about the detection of a gravitational wave event in 2023 from the loudest collision we've heard so far. In this case, the wave was caused by the collision of two black holes that created one new black hole about 60x the mass of our Sun and released an entire sun's worth of energy. Charlotte explains why there are many black hole collisions going on, and how LIGO detections are now being combined with data from other gravitational wave detectors to give us more precise measurements. You'll also hear about Active Galactic Nuclei (AGNs) and their negative impact on Charlotte's research. Charlotte talks about what she looks for in her research, and why it all comes down to “wanting to see more photons” to better validate her modeling. Our first question from the audience comes from Joe, who asks, “What does it mean for the Milky Way to have a bar? Why does it have a bar? And how can such a long bar form?” It turns out that many spiral galaxies like ours have bars, and Charlotte explains a little about bar structure. She brings up the current debate about the stability of these bars, and points out that they actually come in slightly different configurations and that star formation at the ends of the bar has an impact, too. Unlike previous thinking, these bars can develop earlier in galactic evolution and can last a very long time. In other words, as Charlotte puts it, “The bar is always open.” Next, Chuck asks what got Charlotte into astronomy. She describes the inspiration she drew from both the dark skies of Northern California, where she grew up, and from the science fiction she read. She shares a few of her “million and one jobs” she did, including her stint as a bassist in a band. That tees up our next audience question, from Shivani, who asks, “How do you mix music and science? I can't decide if I want to be a scientist or a musician someday – can I be both?” Yes, Charlotte says, and explains why doing both might actually be better. She talks about the value of music, and passion, and hobbies that are more than just hobbies, as well as some of the live music she's been seeing in Brooklyn, Long Island and Queens. Finally, Chuck asks Charlotte about the current passion project she's working on. She tells us how she's looking at a handful of galaxies in multiple wavelengths and comparing them to each other to figure out “what's going on under the hood.” If you'd like to know more about Charlotte, you can connect with her on Bluesky at @charlotteeureka.bsky.social or on her GitHub page charlotteolsen.github.io.

BREEDER FEATURE PODCAST: Manny Vierra, Valley Oak Arabians • In this heartfelt episode, lifelong Arabian horse breeder, Manny Vierra of Valley Oak Arabians, shares his experience learning about and loving Arabian horses. For nearly five decades, Manny has been building a legacy rooted in passion, purpose, and an unshakable love for the Arabian horse.Manny shares how a single filly in the late 1970s sparked what would become a lifelong pursuit of excellence — eventually leading him to create one of the most beautiful Arabian horse facilities in Northern California. He opens up about his hands-on approach to breeding, the influence of Polish and European bloodlines, and his belief that Arabians are living art — beauty, balance, and soul in motion.From traveling across Poland and Europe to standing world-class stallions like Pryo OSB and Hercules EA, Manny's journey is filled with unforgettable stories, valuable lessons, and deep gratitude for the horses and people who've shaped his path.With humor and humility, he reflects on what new breeders can learn, why integrity matters most, and how the Arabian horse community continues to bring people together across generations and continents.

After more than 100 years, Chinook salmon have made it to areas above Upper Klamath Lake in Southern Oregon. Earlier this month, a radio-tagged adult salmon was detected in the Williamson River and others were found in tributaries on the west side of Upper Klamath Lake and in the Sprague River. The return of salmon follows the largest river restoration project in U.S. history. The removal of four dams in Southern Oregon and Northern California was completed last year. Adult salmon swam more than 200 miles from the ocean to the Oregon side of the Klamath Basin for the first time since 1912. The Klamath Tribes said the fish need time and protection to thrive again. We hear more from William Ray Jr., the chairman of the Klamath Tribes.

Song: We Shall Be Known Music by: Karisha Longaker of MaMuse   Notes: I could not be more delighted than to bring you this beloved song in a real-life song-sharing situation. My Flow Singing folk were singing "We Shall Be Known" for the third week -- so we simply recorded! You'll sing with them as they review the main melody, learn the upper harmony for the first time -- and then I inserted a quick teach of the low harmony -- and then we get to sing "in the room" with the Flow Singers, who were leaning into the song in such a beautiful way. I feel so lucky with the company I get to keep... and next week, I find myself in a Zoom room with Karisha Longaker and Sorah Nutting themselves, talking about the "insanely fun, incredibly connected" first years, and what it means in practical terms to "believe in kindness as our common wealth."    Songwriter Info: MaMuse (“Ma” as in Mamma; “Muse” as in the one who inspires) was born out of a collaboration between songwriters Karisha Longaker and Sorah Nutting. 2008 was a year of great alchemy. Fires erupted in Northern California, a great wind of inspiration blew through, catalyzing a series of songs written from the soil and rivers, ash and heat of Chico where these two musicians met. In the early days these troubadours toted instruments around town by bicycle and shared their songs at farmers markets, community gatherings, small cafes and festivals. Not too long after, these two voices became iconic to the Chico community, representing idyllic values of friendship, community, love for nature and care for Self and World. The love spread, sisterhood held strong through two decades of LIFE: children, relationships arriving and dissolving, making home in many new places.  MaMuse songs such as “We Shall Be Known” and “Hallelujah” have sprouted wings and are now sung at the bed sides of birthing mothers, round campfires, at weddings and funerals... All places where people are gathered to celebrate and to mourn. These are songs born of the Folk lineage; songs for all of us.   Sharing Info: The song is free to share but Karisha and Sorah always welcome financial and/or networking support if/when folks are so moved.   Song Learning Time Stamps: Melody: 00:04:20 High harmony: 00:07:16 Low harmony: 00:11:34 Whole song: 00:15:05   Links: Show info, bookings and newsletter signup: www.mamuse.org Instagram: www.instagram.com/mamusemusic  Patreon: www.patreon.com/mamuse Download and contribute to recorded music funds: mamuse.bandcamp.com  Lisa Littlebird's page for We Shall Be Known: thebirdsings.com/we-shall-be-known/   Nuts & Bolts: 2:2, major, 3-part harmony   Join this community of people who love to use song to help navigate life?

Hey Doc,When you become a mom, everything changes— your body, your schedule, your sense of who you are. And when you're a physician mom, that collides with a career that isn't built for flexibility or rest.In this conversation, Dr. Sonia Singh and I go straight into that tension — the messy middle between professional identity and motherhood. We talk about what it really looks like to become a mom in medicine, to return to work postpartum, and to rebuild your career in a way that actually fits your life.Dr. Singh also opens up about the burnout that pushed her to make a change—and how she rebuilt her career by creating her own micropractice, designed for busy women and moms who want more control over their time and energy. It's a conversation about honesty, courage, and redefining what success in medicine can look like.Key takeaways:Breastfeeding can be deeply challenging—even when you “know” what to do.Returning to work postpartum can hold both relief and guilt at the same time.The tension between professional life and motherhood is real—and worth talking about.Practicing medicine on your own terms is possible when you decide your life gets to come first.This episode is for you, Doc—the one listening and wondering if there's another way. You can build a life that fits you—aligned with your values, your priorities, and the season you're in right now.Go listen now, and share it with another doc who needs proof she's not crazy for wanting something different.Dr. Sonia Singh is a board-certified internist, writer, practice consultant, and mom. Born and raised in Northern California, she attended medical school at UC San Diego and completed her residency at Stanford. During residency, she experienced profound burnout and nearly left clinical medicine altogether. A decade later, she's deeply grateful she didn't. Her career path over that time has also been her own wellness journey. Today, Dr. Singh runs a solo direct care micropractice and mentors physicians who are building similar paths. A creative at heart, she feels fortunate to practice medicine in a way that allows her creativity to thrive.For more information about Dr. Sonia Singh, you can visit her What did you think of the episode, doc?

In this Halloween-timed episode, Ophira Eisenberg talks with Brooklyn-based horror author and poet Brooke Mackenzie, who balances writing ghost stories with parenting her five-year-old daughter. Brooke describes her haunted Minnesota childhood home—once owned by a member of the Pillsbury family—complete with a female ghost in the basement and a handsy spirit in an old pony shed. She recounts asking “the powers that be” in college to take away her ability to see ghosts after too many eerie encounters at Sarah Lawrence. Ophira and Brooke trade jokes about “geriatric motherhood,” with Brooke explaining how she had her daughter at 40 after infertility struggles and found calm in later-in-life parenting. She also shares how the pandemic sent her family from Manhattan to a haunted mountain town in Northern California, where she wrote much of her horror fiction. Brooke reveals that her story “The Elevator Game”—inspired by the real-life Eliza Lam mystery—launched her career at 39 and led to her collections Ghost Games and The Scary ABC Diary. They discuss the rise of women in horror, how horror offers catharsis and justice, and how motherhood made her writing darker and more body-focused (“once you've had every fluid on you…”). The episode ends with Ophira laughing about diaper blowout memories while Brooke jokes that she now spends more time on beta-fish forums than parenting.

INBOX OF ODDITIES 062: Meat Popsicles & Zombie Squirrels In this edition of the Inbox, the Freak Fam checks in with existential snack food, sasquatch fashion dilemmas, and a parrot who might be possessed by a 1960s sketch comedian. A Tampa household has now fully adopted the worldview that we are all just anxious meat popsicles waiting for a mysterious demise. Christine experiences a full-blown BOO Effect and urgently requires a ruling on whether her new sweatshirt is for Sasquatches or designed by them. (Either way, Bigfoot has impeccable taste.) Brett sends photographic proof that Atlanta is teeming with new Freak Fam friends—some of them stuffed. We hear from someone who met a foul-mouthed African Gray who may or may not be Artie Johnson reincarnated (very interesting…). A listener in Iceland regrets missing the infamous Penis Museum (the ultimate tourist trap), while another fears Northern California's new menace: an aggressive alpha squirrel that might be the patient zero of the rodent zombie apocalypse. Meanwhile, early-episode pug snortles lead to film history, someone swears off chicken for 36 whole hours after Mike the Headless Chicken, and a beloved friend is found again—this time as a museum skeleton exhibit. There's Exploding Head Syndrome, cursed libraries, punk-band names that are too spicy for polite company, emotional support sandwiches, and sincerely enthusiastic reports of Kat physically picking up audience members. All this oddness and more—proof that the Freak Fam is thriving, terrified of birds, and proudly flying their freak flags wherever they go. Never change.Stay curious. Stay weird. Stay away from angry squirrels. Tickets And Live Show Information Here! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Tom Cruise 'Feels Used' by Ana De Armas: Actor 'Fears He'll Never Find Love Again' After Shocking Split Uber has revealed that it will start paying drivers to complete “digital tasks” to help with AI, but it isn't available to everyone just yet. A wild, very “polite” and possibly lonely black bear recently paid a visit to its neighbors at a Northern California zoo. Before opening for the day, staff at Sequoia Park Zoo in Eureka were conducting a routine inspection of the Redwood Sky Walk — a self-guided tour of local redwood history and ecology — when they were surprised by a unique visitor. Looks like Taco Bell is taking Live Más to a whole new level, because the Baja Blast Pie is finally going nationwide this November.

Shannon Rowan discusses her fascinating book "The Red Shoes: Our Devil's Dance with Technology and How We Can Stop It" on whether digital technologies have crossed the Rubicon from being mere tools to becoming our masters and whether they may even inherently be evil. From the harms of EMF and EMR, to the effects of screen technology on children and adult internet addiction, the internet is wrecking havoc on society. She also looks at some of the mysterious DARPA origins of this technology and little known facts, such as how the CIA's MKULTRA predecessor was known as Project Bluebird, and isn't it interesting how Twitter's initial logo was a bluebird? She also covers solutions which includes "rewilding ourselves". Watch on BitChute / Brighteon / Rumble / Substack / YouTube *Support Geopolitics & Empire!

About a third of the greenhouse gases cooking our planet come from our food. Agriculture and livestock production are incredibly taxing on the planet. To curb the impact, we need to drastically reduce the amount of land we use to make food, while at the same time making more food for a growing population. How are we going to do that? In this episode we go fishing with an eccentric rancher in Northern California and hop over to Colorado to get a rare peek into the demonized factory farm industry on our hunt for answers.

On his debut episode of the California Now Podcast, new host Josh Meyers dives head-first into the weird and wonderful folklore that stretches across this state from the hub of spiritual tourism in Mount Shasta to UFO sightings in the Mojave Desert. First up, Meyers chats with Zach O'Brien, founder of the digital publication Active NorCal. A Lemurian expert, O'Brien explains how Northern California's mystical landscape inspires imagination and legend, noting that “as soon as you get into these different areas of Northern California — be it Mount Shasta, the Redwoods, or Lake Tahoe — there's a palpable feeling, and so much can run wild in your imagination when you see these places.”The conversation then turns to one of the most enduring legends: Bigfoot. O'Brien also touches on Tahoe's “Tessie” and where travelers can explore these myths firsthand. Next, Meyers heads south to the Mojave Desert to chat with Ken Layne, host of the radio show The Desert Oracle. Together, they break down the haunting story of Yucca Man. “Yucca Man is one name for a phenomenon that's been experienced all over the world in wild, desolate places—eight feet tall, colorless, with glowing red eyes and a terrible roar,” Layne explains. Layne also recounts a chilling close encounter of his own on a stretch of desert highway. “I slowed down, stopped, and those lights just sat there behind me — then backed away at impossible speed, eight miles down the grade in seconds.” The region's otherworldly landmarks are also accounted for as Layne plots out some of more surreal spectacles tucked away behind the desert foothills, from the mysterious Giant Rock near Landers to the iconic Integratron in nearby Joshua Tree, a hand-built dome said (by some) to channel alien energy.

1968 marked the beginning of one of the most infamous killing sprees in American history. For two years, Northern California was terrorized by a series of seemingly random murders. It wasn't just the killings that terrorized people; it was the fact that the killer taunted the police and the media through a series of cryptic letters sent to newspapers.  Over 50 years later, the case still hasn't been closed and remains one of the most notorious unsolved crimes in American history.  Learn about the Zodiac Killer, what we know, and speculation surrounding it on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
