Hi friends! Happy Tuesday!!Shayna Hubers was smart, beautiful, and ambitious... but beneath the surface was a deep darkness no one saw coming. When her boyfriend, Ryan Poston, tried to leave the relationship, Shayna's obsession spiraled out of control. What came next was a shocking mix of jealousy, manipulation, and murder that left investigators wondering: was this really self-defense… or a cold, calculated execution?In today's episode, we uncover the chilling case of Shayna Hubers — from a bizarre 911 call and her obsessive behavior, to disturbing interrogation tapes, wild courtroom moments and the jaw-dropping moments that followed her conviction. This story has everything: catfishing, obsession, Miss Ohio, jailhouse marriages, retrials, and one of the most talked-about interrogations in Kentucky history. Twists, lies and motives are all over the place in this one. After all, they called her the Kentucky Jodi Arias for a reason.Also, let me know who you want me to talk about next time.

Over the weekend, President Donald Trump sent an unusual text to the prime minister of Norway. The two leaders had been messaging about Greenland – specifically, Trump's threats to impose tariffs on European countries opposed to the United States taking over the autonomous Danish territory. Norwegian Prime Minister Jonas Gahr Store said in a statement that he had been trying to de-escalate the situation. President Trump responded by linking his insistence on taking over Greenland to his grievance over not receiving the Nobel Peace Prize – bestowed yearly by the Nobel Committee in Norway. Today on “Post Reports,” London bureau chief Steve Hendrix joins host Martine Powers with the latest on Trump's bid for Greenland, how it all comes back to his perceived Peace Prize snub, and how his obsession is starting to have a real impact on geopolitics. Today's show was produced by Rennie Svirnovskiy. It was edited by Dennis Funk and mixed by Sean Carter. Subscribe to The Washington Post here.

Breaking down the Tepe murder case. Vascular surgeon Michael McKee, 39, is charged with two counts of premeditated aggravated murder in the shooting deaths of his ex-wife Monique Tepe and her husband Spencer Tepe in Columbus, Ohio on December 30th, 2025. Their two young children — ages one and four — were found unharmed in the home.McKee and Monique divorced in 2017 after a seven-month marriage. Family members describe the relationship as emotionally abusive, with death threats and lasting psychological damage. Monique's brother-in-law Rob Misleh told reporters she was "terrified" of McKee for years and "would talk quite often about how much he messed with her mental health."In the months before the murders, McKee was actively evading medical malpractice lawsuits in Nevada. Attorney Dan Laird documented nine failed attempts to serve him — fake addresses, a fax machine phone number, and colleagues who said he'd "just disappeared." His Nevada license had expired in June 2025. Meanwhile, Monique had remarried, had two children, and just celebrated her fifth anniversary with Spencer.Police tracked McKee through neighborhood surveillance and linked a firearm from his Chicago residence to shell casings at the scene. He was arrested at a Chick-fil-A in Rockford, Illinois and waived extradition. He plans to plead not guilty. Columbus Police Chief Elaine Bryant called it a "domestic violence-related attack." The case continues to develop.#SpencerTepe #MoniqueTepe #TepeMurders #MichaelMcKee #TrueCrimeToday #BreakingCrime #ColumbusOhio #DomesticViolence #SurgeonArrested #OhioHomicideJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

As the world watches events in Iran, and wonders whether the US will intervene, the Spectator's cover this week examines 'British complicity in Tehran's terror'. When thinking about what could happen next in the crisis, there is a false dichotomy presented between regime survival and revolution; the reality is more complicated, though there is no doubt that this is the biggest threat to the theocratic regime in decades. For this week's Edition, host Lara Prendergast is joined by political editor Tim Shipman, columnist Rachel Johnson and features editor – and Edition co-host – William Moore. They commend the bravery of Iran's protestors but criticise the ‘inept, naive and wrong' response of the Foreign Office. Are some Brits proving to be Iran's ‘useful idiots'? As well as the crisis in the Middle East, they discuss: whether the Starmer administration should be considered Gordon Brown's second term; the growing obsession with race in Britain – particularly by the right; Rachel's reflections on her travels to the US – from transatlantic cruise liners to partying with our former colleague Katy Balls; why some men lament the loss of their libido; and finally, the controversy over Elon Musk's AI tool ‘Grok'. Produced by Patrick Gibbons.

What does it take for an actor to memorize a script so deeply that it survives stress, pressure from everyday life, and even intoxication? Sir Anthony Hopkins has an answer so tempting, I had to try it. And it has less to do with “talent” than you might think. According to his epic autobiography, We Did Ok, Kid, not even Anthony Hopkins thinks his ability to remember so many lines has to do with DNA or some special genetic trait. Having memorized a lot of content myself, I completely agree. And in this guide, you’ll learn how Hopkins turns scripts into mental landscapes, why most performers fail because they chase speed, and how you can adopt Hopkins’ obsessive learning rituals for yourself. If they’re not for you, you’ll also discover how to adapt them using the Magnetic Memory Method. This unique learning approach will help you install lines from a script or poetry so deeply the process will soon feel like second nature. Whether you’re preparing for a stage performance, a TEDx talk, or a high-stakes presentation, this exploration of Anthony Hopkins’ approach to learning is the memory training guide you’ve been looking for. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nhjIkGu32CA Anthony Hopkins' Memory Ritual: A Healthy “Obsession” Hopkins' brilliant ability to memorize thousands of lines and perform them under pressure isn’t magic. It's the result of a particular ritual that has made him polymathic in number of areas and skills. In case you weren’t aware, Hopkins is not just an award-winning actor. His skills include directing, painting, performing music and now writing. And it has to be said that the writing in We Did Ok, Kid is outstanding. Now, although Hopkins has had teachers and mentors along the way, much of what he’s learned has been autodidactic. For example, as a kid he regularly read Arthur Mee’s Children’s Encyclopedia. Without anyone telling him to do so, he committed lists of facts from its pages to memory. His approach is a bit different than the method I teach in this list memorization tutorial, but related in terms of a kind of spaced repetition Hopkins worked out for himself. Rote Repetition vs. Creative Repetition When it comes to learning the lines of a movie script or play, Hopkins does use a lot of repetition. But it is absolutely not rote learning. That’s because he doesn’t just read a script or a set of instructions while learning. No, Hopkins attacks the material with a pen and adds special marks that turn each page into a kind of private code. And that’s exactly what I tried to do as you can see on this page I worked on from Shakespeare’s Titus Andronicus: Some people will protest that not only is Hopkins using rote when it comes to memorizing lines from a script, but that his rote reaches obsessive levels. That’s because he goes through the process of reading and marking up his scripts multiple times, sometimes 250 times or more. Having gone through the process myself, even at an admittedly small scale, I can tell you it is absolutely not rote learning. Looking at a page once it has been marked up automatically moves you from rote repetition to active recall. Active recall is present any time you place information on a page where you have to stretch your mind. And that’s what Hopkins’ marks achieve. His process literally transforms each page from a bland field of words into a highly mnemonic landscape. So when the time to perform arrives, he doesn't try to recall. He simply walks the landscape he has laid in his mind. Or as he puts it: “Becoming familiar with a script was like picking up stones from a cobblestone street one at a time, studying them, then replacing each in its proper spot. Only then could I look out over the road and know every inch of it spread out before me.” Why So Many People Fail at Memorizing Scripts Having worked with countless actors over the years, or even just people who have seen my TEDx Talk and want to memorize a speech, I feel confident when I tell you this: The main reason people fail is not because they are trying to copy the memory tips given by other actors. It’s because they have mistaken activity for accomplishment. And they are trying to move too fast. On the one hand, this desire to create momentum is understandable. Speed not only feels like progress. Moving quickly through rote learning can give you doses of what scientists call phasic dopamine (something you can develop a much healthier relationship with through my dopamine-resetting guide for learners). But when it comes to serious learning and performance, speed is vanity. And as I learned from my podcast interview with actor Ashley Strand who memorized the entire Book of Mark, vanity kills depth. There’s another problem too that many people who want to memorize large amounts of content face. The Emptiness of the Long Distance Learner As a child, Hopkins was haunted by self-doubt and failure. His solution? He not only built a mental container he calls his “Tin Brain Box”. He also imitated other great polymaths like Thomas Jefferson and Benjamin Franklin. Like many other people with polymathic personality traits, Hopkins keeps a commonplace book and uses it to copy poems by hand. He also carried notebooks when young, and developed a personal note-taking method. More importantly, he learned to switch off his thoughts, a skill I share the science around in my book, The Victorious Mind. I mention my book because when Hopkins advises actors and people learning skills like painting, I know exactly what he means when he said, “Remain empty. Don't think.” Although this suggestion sounds mystical, it's pure performance psychology. The Neuroscience of Learning Without Obstacles You’ve probably had this kind of experience while learning something new. Maybe you’re studying a language or trying to memorize a sales script. Instead of focusing, your mind keeps intervening and asking questions like, “Am I doing this right?” When that happens, you're stuck in the Default Mode Network (DMN), the brain's internal chatter loop. Hopkins' learning technique? It helps silence the Default Mode Network and then activate the Task Positive Network (TPN). You can think of the Task Positive Network as being in what some scientists call a state of “flow.” As Nature puts it in this study, the Default Mode Network is a constant antagonist to that state of flow. But as I know very well, you can switch off the inner narrator with its endless “blah blah blah.” Once done, that leaves you free to become the doer. However, that doesn’t mean you’ll be able to perfectly install new skills or imitate the learning processes of others. My Experiment: Hopkins vs. Magnetic Memory Method I learned this the hard way when I tried Hopkins' method. I spent hours marking up pages. Without an example of what one of his scripts looks like, I had to imagine exactly how he draws circles all over his scripts. But even with the drawings I’ve otherwise had success with on my Zettelkasten and flashcards, I quickly hit a wall. Not because I'm lazy. It’s just because my brain needs a different engine. So I turned back to the same techniques I teach you in the Magnetic Memory Method Masterclass. This is my go-to system for structure, proper mnemonic images, and well-formed Memory Palaces. Once I gave each line a home using the techniques, the lines from Titus Andronicus I wanted to memorize clicked into place. And you can watch me recite those lines during the recent Vitamin X live launch celebration training. Not only did I recite the passage forwards. I demonstrated full Recall Rehearsal and recited them: Forwards Backwards From the middle to the end From the middle to the beginning The even numbered lines The odd numbered lines Memory Palaces: The Shortest Path to Reliable Recall Memory Palaces aren't theoretical. They're ancient. And they remain one of the most effective tools for embedding information into long-term, actionable memory. If you're unfamiliar with the method, here's the short version: You take a familiar physical location, such as your apartment, a childhood school, or a route you know well. Then you assign information to specific points along a path you assign throughout the location. By mentally walking the path, you access the information in order. It's not rote memory. It's spatial, visual, contextual memory. And when used properly, it’s incredibly fast. Here’s a walkthrough video of me using it to memorize some poetry: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=STlYIiF9RzI If you would like to learn how to build and use your own Memory Palaces for acting, speeches, or studies, you can explore the Memory Palace technique through my complete guide here. What I Really Learned When Imitating Hopkins’ Memory Ritual After realizing that Hopkins’ memory routine was just not for me, I took a completely different angle. I put the camera on and attempted to document my memorization process for public consumption. But soon, something broke inside me. I couldn’t focus on using the memory techniques I love so much and have covered so extensively in my online mnemonics dictionary. By putting a camera on and starting the clock, something I’ve done before with success when I competed with Dave Farrow, I found myself locked in the Default Mode Network. In other words, I started worrying about how I looked instead of focusing on using the Magnetic Memory Method. For me, real memorization is quiet. Private. And for many of us, it resists observation. When I returned to internal work on my own, no stopwatch, no camera, I shifted back to the ancient art of memory and simply learned the lines. What You Can Learn from Hopkins (Without Imitating Him) Hopkins' genius isn't something to mimic line by line. His method fits his mind and that’s a beautiful thing. But the real lesson is that your mind might need something different. And that’s exactly what he says. Go out and explore and find your own method. What I learned is that memory is not for display. For me, it’s a private practice that leads to increased focus, presence and command over the things I want to say. Once you understand your learning goals, you can adapt any system to your own cognitive strengths. For me, that system is the Magnetic Memory Method, and if you’d like to learn to use Memory Palaces for free, grab this course now: It not only gives you four video lessons and worksheets to help you develop your memory skills. It also helps you enter the state of flow that makes learning so much easier and more fun. So what do you say? I found it refreshing to learn that Hopkins wasn't a particularly gifted child. He felt behind for much of his life. But instead of accepting failure, he built a learning system that ultimately helped him master multiple skills. His memory became the foundation for multiple experiences of development, growth and personal transformation. If you've struggled with memorization, or felt pressure to perform before you're ready, this is your call to take a step back. Build your memory. Explore the many techniques available to you and find the ones that fit your mind. Install them so deeply that learning never feels like work again. Because when you get it right, it’s not work. It’s not play either. It’s simply you. 100% present. Enjoying flow.

In this conversation, the discussion with C. Thi Nguyen revolves around the nature of metrics, qualitative knowledge, and the duality of scoring systems, particularly in the context of climbing. The speaker shares personal experiences with climbing as a case study to illustrate how scoring systems can both enhance and detract from the experience. The conversation delves into the beauty of climbing, the subtlety of value in metrics, and the importance of savoring moments in games. It also explores the tension between purpose and game mechanics, the role of enjoyment, and the complexities of scoring systems in both games and life. Ultimately, the conversation highlights the challenges of balancing values in decision-making and the risks associated with the gamification of various aspects of life.Takeaways Metrics can miss the subtlety of qualitative knowledge. Scoring systems can enhance or detract from experiences. Climbing serves as a unique case study for scoring systems. The beauty of climbing lies in its scoring system. Values can become obscured when metrics are prioritized. Games allow for exploration of different scoring systems. Achievement play focuses on winning, while striving play values the process. External expectations can pressure individuals to conform to metrics. The addictive nature of games can lead to negative experiences.Chapters 00:00 The Intricacies of Portability and Judgment 01:12 Introduction and Social Media Presence 03:40 The Value of Climbing and Scoring Systems 07:16 The Impact of Numbers in Climbing 09:42 Savoring the Moment vs. Obsession with Scoring 10:59 Goals vs. Purpose in Games 12:39 Understanding Value Capture 17:53 The Shift in Standards of Success 20:33 The Limitations of Metrics 21:42 Games as a Reflection of Human Desire 24:37 The Purpose Behind Scoring Systems 26:07 The Magic Circle of Games 29:15 Achievement Play vs. Striving Play 34:47 When Games Become Unsafe 38:21 The Pitfalls of Portability in MetricsFollow Thi on Twitter, Bluesky, and find his website.

Today's Headlines: After two weeks of nationwide protests, Iran looks closer than ever to a regime collapse. The government shut down the internet all weekend, blamed the U.S. and Israel, and threatened retaliation — while Trump publicly backed protesters online, which historically only makes things messier. In the U.S., a 160-year-old synagogue in Jackson, Mississippi was set on fire early Saturday. No one was hurt, a suspect is in custody, and the congregation — which survived a KKK bombing in 1967 — says it will rebuild. Trump also sat down with the New York Times and said the only thing restraining him is “my own morality,” claimed owning Greenland is “psychologically needed for success,” and suggested NATO could be optional. Around the same time, references to his impeachments quietly disappeared from his Smithsonian portrait label. In Minneapolis, tensions escalated after video showed ICE officer Jonathan Ross switching hands to draw his gun before killing Renee Good. Instead of de-escalating, DHS announced hundreds more federal agents, ICE plans to hire 10,000 more officers, and JD Vance promised “door-to-door” deportations, as a Washington Post report detailed ICE's push to churn out violent arrest videos for social media. Trump also failed to convince oil companies to reinvest in Venezuela, then declared a national emergency anyway to shield $2.5 billion in Venezuelan oil revenue, calling it a U.S. national security issue. Finally, courts blocked Trump from freezing $10 billion in welfare funds to blue states and from cutting NIH research grants, while December jobs numbers showed modest growth — data Trump leaked early on social media because, apparently, impulse control is optional.

Whether you're a founder, executive, or aspiring leader, this is a masterclass in cultivating winning teams without losing your humanity. TakeawaysEffective leadership requires upfront emotional investment—build trust before you ever coach performance.Winning cultures start with clarity: build, enhance, then sustain.Ego management is critical. A coach's first job is to neutralize ego—both theirs and the player's.Killer instinct can't be taught; it must be identified early and nurtured over time.Great leaders don't motivate the unmotivated—they hire self-starters and avoid demotivating them.Being human and apologizing authentically creates deeper relational capital and loyalty.Female leaders face invisible barriers—intentional mentorship and allyship are critical to systemic change.Tough love works when it's consistent, fair, and rooted in seeing people's full potential.Delegation is not a weakness—it's a multiplier. Trust and systems are prerequisites to scale.Great leadership requires learning to listen more than you speak—and never assuming you're the smartest person in the room.Long-term success comes from defining a plan, surrounding yourself with good people, and showing them you care.Chapters00:00 Intro: Mastermind Compilation of Leadership Wisdom00:42 Rex Kalamian: Building Armenia's National Basketball Team03:54 Uniting Diverse Talent and Building Belief06:15 Leading with Sacrifice and Mission-Driven Mindset07:23 Coaching Superstar Egos with Relationship-First Approach09:07 Can Killer Instinct Be Taught or Is It Innate?12:22 Translating Lessons from Sports into Business13:46 Jen Welter: Performance Dips & Empathetic Leadership15:27 “Do You Need a Minute?” — Spotting the Signs of Mental Strain17:59 Balancing Leadership While Being Human21:50 Lessons for Women Breaking Barriers in Leadership24:55 The Power of Mentorship and Intentional Advocacy25:19 Dick Vermeil: Tough Love and Consistent Standards27:00 When Talent Isn't Matched by Work Ethic28:26 Bringing People Into Your Home to Build Culture30:35 Delegation, Obsession, and Why He Walked Away in '8233:14 How to Evaluate Talent Beyond Interviews35:08 Can Leadership Be Taught or Is It Born?36:33 Coach Vermeil's Playbook: 7 Core Principles of Winning38:52 Final Thoughts and Outro by AvetisResources and Links:https://www.hireclout.comhttps://www.podcast.hireclout.comhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/hirefasthireright

In this episode, we're answering your questions on gut health and everyday nutrition, focusing on what genuinely supports your body without tipping into overwhelm or rigid food rules. From fibre and fats to supplements and sweeteners, we unpack what actually matters and how to build habits that feel sustainable in real life. We talk about how quickly dietary changes can influence gut health, why small additions like seeds, fibre-rich foods and regular meals can make a noticeable difference, and what that tells us about how responsive the gut microbiome really is. We also break down the differences between omega 3, 6 and 9, how to think about seed oils without fear, and when supplements like zinc may be genuinely helpful, particularly after pregnancy. We also spend time on the emotional side of eating well. We discuss how to nourish your body without slipping into obsessive behaviours, how to navigate body image pressure and online trends, and why true health should support flexibility, enjoyment and resilience rather than control.

Given that we lost Brian Wilson recently, and there's been a lot of talk about the elimination of the affordable subcompact, I thought we could reflect a bit upon America's obsession with the automobile. The BIG auto; the POWERFUL auto.  Especially here in Los Angeles - you gotta have wheels - and you'll be judged by what you drive. Once, while stopped at an intersection in my little Saturn, I was heckled mercilessly by some tweens on skateboards.On the other side of the argument sits the Goddess Shania Twain - that Canadian Everywoman who raised her siblings single handedly, then went on to conquer Country Pop music with songs like That Don't Impress Me Much - where she declares that you may have a hot car, Hoss, but, that don't make you a man in her book. She puts it all in perspective.LITTLE DEUCE COUPE / THE BEACH BOYSNowadays, I drive a Prius, but occasionally I'll admire the sleek lines of a Dodge Challenger, and fantasize that I could be that muscle car guy. The Prius is wimpy - ya gotta go for The BIG auto; the POWERFUL auto. I can trace this fascination back to '63, when at the age of 10, I heard Little Deuce Coupe for the first time. I didn't know what Deuce Coupe meant, but that was ok because Brian Wilson sang “You don't know what I got!” I now know that the title refers to a 1932 Ford Coupe, and the whole California culture of the drag race was popularized around the country with the invocation of this souped up Franken-car.There were other mechanical beasts in the Wilson canon: There was the T Bird of Fun, Fun, Fun; the “duel in the sun” opponents - the corvette Stingray vs the Mopar described in Shut Down, Granny from Pasadena's brand new shiny red super stock Dodge, and their anthemic ode to the Chevy 409, but The Deuce Coupe was purportedly Brian's favorite. You can thank Brian's lyricist Roger Christian for these automotive articulations, but Brian knew how to implant them into our hearts and minds with his rhythms, melodies, and harmonies.THAT DON'T IMPRESS ME MUCH / SHANIA TWAINThis is where the macho mechanical mythos gets deflated: Shania lets us know in no uncertain terms what makes a man desirable - it's not your looks, brains, and especially not your car. It's your courage to commit, your ability to listen, your kindness and tenderness. These are the qualities that win you a place at her table and in her bed.Because she doesn't need you.  Next to Taylor Swift, Shania is the most successful female Country recording artist. whose albums have spent 97 weeks as the Top Country Albums chart leader. Former husband/producer Mutt Lange may have helped to craft those catchy Pop hits around an image of an accessible Wonder Woman, but even if she hadn't become a mogul, I have a feeling that Shania's integrity and sense of who she is would never have faltered.

In this episode of the Uploft Interior Design Podcast, I open up about the loss of my beloved dog and how it has impacted my start to 2026. Instead of a typical episode, I decided to do a throwback focusing on throw pillows and online auctions. I reflect on my past year, the challenges of moving to Connecticut, and my desire to regain a sense of direction in my life and work. I share my newfound obsession with online auctions, recounting a humorous story about bidding on memorabilia from a house we considered buying, which I plan to gift to my husband. I also answer a listener's question about finding quality throw pillow inserts and covers, recommending various online resources. Lastly, I encourage listeners to participate in our contest by leaving a five-star review on iTunes for a chance to win my online interior design class.

Welcome to a powerful and heartfelt episode of the Compared to Who? podcast, hosted by Heather Creekmore. In this episode, Heather chats with three real women—Patricia, Diane, and Jess—who have courageously walked through coaching and programs to improve their body image and relationship with food. If you’re tired of feeling stuck in food obsession, diet culture, or shame around your body, this episode is for you! Episode Highlights: The guests share honestly about their lifelong battles with body image, food restriction, calorie counting, and the underlying fears and shame that kept them trapped for years. Patricia Reveals how she lived in “body image bondage” for nearly two decades, mistaking strict dieting for freedom until she discovered the faith-based approach of Compared to Who? and began her journey to genuine freedom. Diane At age 71, reflects on six decades of food obsessions and restricting behaviors, and how finally integrating her faith with her eating and body image struggles began her transformation. Jess Shares how she didn’t realize she even had body image issues until after having kids; she discusses the shame of living in a bigger body, the mental exhaustion of chasing diets, and how true freedom finally came through the support and tools offered in the coaching group. The women and Heather explore the themes of fear, idolatry, objectification, and the dynamic between self-worth and body size. Hear practical, inspiring stories about breaking the cycle of daily weigh-ins, obsessive thoughts, and moralizing food choices. Each guest describes how participation in the 40 Day Body Image Journey, the Body Image Freedom Framework, and intuitive eating coaching offered loving accountability, lasting mindset shifts, and deepened connection to God’s truth about their identity. The episode closes with encouragement for anyone who feels stuck, scared to start, or believes they’re “too old” or “too late” for change. Key Takeaways: Lasting body image freedom isn’t about reaching your “ideal weight”—it’s about shifting your perspective, breaking fear-driven cycles, and finding your worth in God, not a number on the scale. Healing comes in community: support, vulnerability, and shared struggle are powerful in bringing freedom from shame and isolation. No matter your age or how long you’ve struggled, there is hope and there is help.

This is a Grave Talks CLASSIC EPISODE We explore the extraordinary childhood of Amanda Quill, whose early fascination with ghosts and the unseen world shaped the course of her life. Growing up between Canada and Scotland, Amanda found herself surrounded by history, folklore, and unanswered questions about what exists beyond our physical reality. At a time when paranormal experiences were rarely discussed openly, Amanda sought out every piece of information she could find—books, stories, research, and firsthand accounts—driven by an unshakable need to understand what others preferred to dismiss. Each move across borders deepened her curiosity, exposing her to new perspectives, cultural beliefs, and haunting traditions that reinforced the feeling that something more was waiting to be understood. Amanda reflects on how those early years influenced her path toward exploring the spirit world and uncovering truths many are reluctant to confront. This episode isn't just about ghosts—it's about curiosity, persistence, and what happens when questions about life after death refuse to fade with age. This is Part Two of our conversation. #TheGraveTalks #ParanormalJourney #LifeLongCuriosity #GhostResearch #ParanormalPodcast #AfterlifeQuestions #HauntedHistory #SpiritualExploration #TrueParanormal #BeyondTheVeil Love real ghost stories?

Jane Anderson has spent her entire career staring directly into the patterns of control, obsession, and escalation that define stalking and intimate partner violence. She began as an Assistant State Attorney in Miami-Dade's Domestic Violence Unit, where she saw—again and again—how stalking isn't just a red flag, but a warning for violence to come. From there, she built the nation's Human Trafficking Unit from the ground up, prosecuting cases driven by surveillance, coercion, and fear. Over the years, Jane has trained law enforcement, strengthened survivor networks, and led teams tackling domestic violence, stalking, and major felonies. She's also become a national leader in using digital evidence to expose patterns of abuse and hold offenders accountable. Today, Jane serves as a Senior Attorney Advisor with AEquitas, drawing on more than eleven years of experience guiding prosecutors on cases involving domestic violence, sexual assault, stalking, and human trafficking.

Hopping on the mini mics for a bonus episode with my sister, Lucy, to recap all things Heated Rivalry and our all-consuming obsession. Some would say it is a fun internet community/cult we've joined and others may say it's unhealthy, but we don't care because it brings us joy!! If you haven't watched Heated Rivalry yet, let this be your sign to go binge the season (only 6 episodes on HBO) and then come listen to this recap. Apologies for the subpar audio quality, but I didn't pack my microphones for our family vacation and simultaneously felt very pulled to do a longer form recap of my love for this show. So here we are!!
