Podcasts about Obsession

In this episode, John interviews Caroline about her deep obsession with true crime, cult documentaries, and survival stories, rooted in a childhood book about kidnapping and dissociation, her psychology studies, and unsettling experiences growing up in New York City. Caroline explains why cults like FLDS and Scientology fascinate her, shares her top cases (Jaycee Dugard, JonBenét Ramsey, Madeleine McCann, Amy Lynn Bradley), and argues that true crime can build awareness but also cause anxiety and overprotectiveness. They discuss the power of public “armchair detectives,” a real-life missing teen case where social sharing helped save her, and concerns about police error, cover-ups, and wrongful convictions. Caroline then dives into her current fixation—the Idaho Four—questioning details, evidence, and the plea deal while promising to keep investigating.

When 39-year-old mother of three Maya Millete walked up to her Chula Vista home carrying grocery bags on the afternoon of January 7, 2021, security cameras captured what looked like a routine Thursday. But by the next morning, the vibrant Navy contract specialist had vanished without a trace, leaving behind a new Jeep Wrangler, plans for a family road trip, and an appointment with a divorce attorney scheduled for that very week.What followed was a years-long investigation that peeled back the layers of a marriage built on escalating, obsessive control. Featuring hidden car trackers, a search history involving poison hemlock, and hundreds of frantic emails sent to online spellcasters, the case ultimately centered on one terrifying question: did a devoted mom walk away to start over, or did her husband execute a calculated plan to ensure she would never leave?Support us on PatreonToday's snack: Lesser Evil Space Balls and CheezmosSources:Adan, Melissa.

When Karol G walked into the Vogue studio last week, she was just days out from the start of Viajando por el Mundo Tropitour, her upcoming stadium tour which will take her across the U.S., Latin America, and Europe through summer 2027. On this week's episode of The Run-Through, the Grammy winner and first Latina to headline Coachella told Chloe Malle and guest host Ignacio Murillo, Vogue's Global Talent Casting Director, that she built the show around the idea of the Latina showgirl. She's been working since October with a full-time trainer, chef, and recovery specialist on a diet that's less about restriction than precision, with plenty of carbs, minimal processed sugar, and six to eight supplements a meal. With six wardrobe changes and a stage built to span an entire stadium, her costume team adjusts her wardrobe roughly every two weeks as her body changes on the road; her biggest source of anxiety, she said, isn't the choreography but whether the audience's energy matches what she's built. Karol G is bringing the ambitious production to countries many stadium tours skip, including Peru, Guatemala, and Panama, even though moving the show by plane across Latin America (versus truck in the U.S.) makes logistics and costs far harder, a tradeoff she considers worth it.  “For me, my Latina community, they were my first supporters,” Karol said. So for me to keep bringing my show to all those places is super important.” Her fashion, developed over seven years with stylist Brett Alan Nelson, has shifted from simply chasing cool looks toward using style as a vehicle for cultural identity, with this tour's six segments including Etro, Roberto Cavalli, Gucci, and Chrome Hearts. She also opened up about family, crediting her musician father as her closest creative sounding board. Elsewhere in the conversation, Karol G confirmed she's done getting tattoos (her three honor Selena, Rihanna, and herself), said she's single and has never used a dating app, and named hot dogs and fries as her ideal first-date food. Viajando por el Mundo Tropitour kicks off July 24 in Chicago. The Run-Through with Vogue is your go-to podcast where fashion meets culture. Hosted by Chloe Malle, Head of Editorial Content, Vogue U.S.; Chioma Nnadi, Head of British Vogue; and Nicole Phelps, Director of Vogue Runway, each episode features the latest fashion news and exclusive designer and celebrity interviews.

After catching up on Salt Lake City divorce drama and the mediocre manosphere that I believe contributed to it, we jump into a review of the psychological "horror" film, Obsession. An instant classic, Obsession tells the story of a cowardly man's choice to put his crush under a spell to love him, rather than muster the courage to express his feelings and accept whatever hers may be. His choice to force his will upon her has devastating consequences for her, for him, and their entire community, but his resolve to have her love him remains. The movie is layered and filled with clues about motivations and messages regarding both the characters and the script. It's a powerful cautionary tale about how quiet, polite, unassuming men can still be dangerous and how narcissism, patriarchy, and fear can warp understanding what love is and isn't. Then, a review of the book Yesteryear, by Caro Claire Burke, another psychological ride. This one takes you into the mind of a "modern day trad wife" as her commitment to being a perfect, content generating, wife and mother plays out. With a fixation on a life mirroring that of the early frontier and wild west, Natalie, strives to project a specific image and aesthetic. Yet, she hides the unsavory truth of her hard forged reality, perhaps to herself most of all. While the main hook is Natalie suddenly waking up in the early 1800's, the book's observations on centering men, the roles women play to enable that illusion, and the high stakes of religious extremism, are also primary topics. We close with my plug for a series of books that I've recently discovered, the Shatter Me series by Tahereh Mafi. The series begins by introducing a girl named Juliette as she's trapped in an asylum due to her dangerous supernatural powers. From there, it evolves into a dystopian, la resistance, self acceptance, enemies to lovers arc - with a love triangle. I'll do a more thorough review when I finish all the books! Both Yesteryear and Shatter Me are currently being adapted into theatrical releases.

Grab your popcorn and your feelings, because this week we're diving headfirst into the YA romance takeover happening on your TV right now. We're joined by Christine Riccio (author of 'Thirty, Flirty, and Forever Alone' and 'Attached at the Hip', host of Those Forking Fangirls podcast) to talk through whether we're actually living in a golden age of YA romance television, or if it just feels that way because Netflix and Amazon can't stop greenlighting shows built for people who grew up on The CW and obsessed over the Twilight saga. We get into what's different about the hype around shows like Off Campus, Heated Rivalry, and The Summer I Turned Pretty, how much of this we can credit to BookTok (and social media more broadly), and whether virality now matters more than a built-in fanbase ever did. Christine also brings her perspective as a published romance author to weigh in on how this boom is rippling into publishing. Plus: why does it seem like contemporary romance is winning while sci-fi and fantasy YA (RIP Vampire Academy and First Kill) can't get a second season? We break down what we think is really going on, and what we'd love to see more of on screen.

The movie just hit theaters, and if you're a physical media collector, the soundtrack is actually getting a vinyl release this September.If you haven't caught the trailer yet, the plot centers on Alice, played by Souheila Yacoub. She's a young widow trying to process the death of her abusive husband, Will. She goes to stay with her former in-laws for a memorial, which already sounds like a nightmare on its own, but then things go completely off the rails. They come across the Necronomicon, unleash the usual Deadite chaos, and Alice has to hunt down a Kandarian dagger to burn the whole family house to the ground just to stop the spread.It takes a lot of those classic, messy Evil Dead tropes and grounds them in a pretty dark family dynamic. We talked with Double Danger about how they approached scoring that specific brand of chaos, how they landed on the sound for this entry, and what it was like working in such an iconic horror universe. Here is our conversation with Double Danger.

Considering The Odyssey is one of the most famous and influential stories of all time, there had been relatively few attempts to directly translate Homer’s epic poem to the big screen until Christopher Nolan came along to do it at a blockbuster scale. It’s been more common for filmmakers, such as Joel and Ethan Coen, to use it as the loose framework for a flawed hero’s journey home, such as the one undertaken by Ulysses Everett McGill in O Brother, Where Art Thou?, a Depression-era musical comedy that maps on to Homer’s version only in the broadest of strokes. But revisiting O Brother through the lens of its stated source material, as we’re doing this week, is a revealing lesson in the malleability of adaptation, as well as the Coens’ ability to make even one of the most familiar tales in all of storytelling uniquely theirs. Then in Feedback, we finally break our silence on the indie-horror phenomenon that is Obsession.

What if the insurance industry could move at the speed of modern technology?In this episode of Making Risk Flow, Christian Stobbs, we revisit one of our top episodes of 2026 where Juan de Castro sits down with Christian Stobbs, Chief Strategy & Corporate Development Officer at Markel, joins host Juan de Castro to discuss what it takes to build a preeminent specialty insurer in an increasingly technology-driven market. Christian explains why speed, customer obsession, technical expertise, and principled decision-making must work together as a unified competitive advantage. The conversation explores how insurers can localize strategy across international markets, reduce costly operational inefficiencies, and deploy AI to enhance underwriting and claims without losing critical human judgment. Christian also shares why transformational technology initiatives should operate with startup-style urgency, how AI will reshape underwriting roles, and why the insurers that adapt fastest will define the future of specialty insurance. Fan Mail: Got a challenge digitizing your intake?

How do you build something nobody asked for—and turn it into an overnight obsession? In this episode of the Innovation Storytellers Show, I speak with Ross Richardson, Chief Design Officer at SharkNinja, about the thinking, testing, storytelling, and consumer obsession behind some of the company's most successful products. Ross leads a global team spanning mechanical and product engineering, industrial design, product innovation, and R&D. But his path into product design began much earlier, from taking things apart and borrowing his father's tools as a child to studying product design engineering and building a career around understanding how people interact with physical products. Our conversation reveals how SharkNinja approaches innovation by starting with consumer behavior rather than technology for technology's sake. Ross explains how the company identifies what he describes as "desirability gaps," finding experiences people already want but cannot easily recreate at home. From frozen drinks and ice cream to coffee and personal care, the opportunity often comes from making something previously difficult, intimidating, or inaccessible feel simple and repeatable. We also discuss the story behind products such as BlendBoss and how observing changing consumer behavior can lead to unexpected opportunities within established categories. Rather than assuming innovation always requires inventing an entirely new market, SharkNinja watches how people live, what they carry, what they share on social media, and how cultural trends are changing their expectations. At the center of this process is a deceptively simple challenge: "prove it." Ross explains why new ideas must withstand technical testing, commercial scrutiny, consumer validation, and internal skepticism before moving forward. He also takes me inside SharkNinja's show-and-tell culture, weekly product demonstrations, in-home user trials, observational research, physical prototyping, and its "red team" approach to bringing fresh perspectives into the development process. In an era where AI can help almost anyone create a polished presentation or convincing visualization, Ross argues that evidence matters more than ever. A compelling story may earn attention, but data, testing, consumer insight, and a working proof of concept are what help turn skepticism into stakeholder buy-in. We also discuss why teams need room to dream before inviting skeptics into the process, how collective enthusiasm can help engineers solve seemingly impossible problems, and why admitting that a favored idea is wrong can sometimes lead to a far better product. As AI changes how we research markets, generate concepts, and communicate innovation, my conversation with Ross is a timely reminder that understanding human behavior remains at the heart of successful product development. The tools available to innovators may be changing rapidly, but our ability to listen to consumers, identify genuine needs, test assumptions, communicate breakthrough ideas, and prove that an idea deserves to exist still determines whether innovation connects with the people it was designed to serve. How can we combine faster, technology-enabled innovation with the deep consumer understanding needed to create products people genuinely want? Listen to the full conversation and share your thoughts.

The murder of Brian Barrett became one of the most disturbing true crime cases of the early internet age: a deadly online love triangle built on catfishing, fake identities, chatroom deception, jealousy, and obsession.In 2006, 22-year-old Brian Barrett was shot and killed outside Dynabrade Corporation in Clarence, New York, near Buffalo. At first, the murder seemed almost motiveless. Brian was a college student, athlete, Little League coach, and future teacher with no obvious enemies. But investigators soon uncovered a digital trail involving Pogo chatrooms, Yahoo instant messages, online romance, and a username that would become infamous: TalHotBlond.This episode of Terrifying & True investigates the real story behind the Brian Barrett murder, the TalHotBlond case, and the online deception that led to violence. Thomas Montgomery, a 46-year-old married father, had been posing online as an 18-year-old Marine sniper named Tommy. Mary Shieler, a 45-year-old mother in West Virginia, was posing as her own teenage daughter, using the girl's photos and voice to maintain the fantasy. Brian Barrett entered the situation as himself — a real 22-year-old man caught between two adults hiding behind fake ideAs the lies unraveled, Montgomery became consumed by jealousy, humiliation, and obsession. The online rivalry moved from Pogo games and instant messages into the workplace, where Brian and Thomas both worked. Then, on September 15, 2006, Brian walked to his pickup truck after his shift and was ambushed with a .30-caliber rifle.We examine the evidence against Thomas Montgomery, the DNA on the peach pit, the missing rifle, the chat logs, the TalHotBlond deception, Mary Shieler's role, and why the case became known as the internet love triangle murder. But at the center of the story is not a screen name, a scandal, or a twist. It is Brian Barrett — a son, brother, friend, coach, student, and future teacher whose life was stolen by obsession.We're telling that story tonight.

Have you ever spent hours replaying a conversation, wishing you had explained yourself differently? Do you feel frustrated when people misunderstand your intentions? Do you find yourself over-explaining, defending your decisions, or trying to convince people you're a good person? If so, you may not simply want to be understood—you may have become emotionally dependent on it. In this episode of The Positivity Xperience, we're exploring the psychology behind the need to be understood and why it can quietly become an obsession. We'll discuss attachment wounds, shame, emotional invalidation, rejection sensitivity, nervous system conditioning, and why some people spend their lives trying to explain themselves to people who have already decided who they are. You'll learn why your brain keeps searching for the "perfect explanation," why over-explaining rarely creates the connection you're hoping for, and how your need for understanding may actually be keeping you emotionally trapped. We'll also explore the difference between healthy communication and compulsive self-justification, why some people intentionally misunderstand you, and how learning to tolerate being misunderstood may become one of the greatest acts of emotional freedom. Because healing isn't getting everyone to understand you. Sometimes healing is realizing they don't have to.

In previous episodes, we have explored a number of locations across the globe where reports of seemingly paranormal activity have emerged with unusual frequency. Amongst the most disturbing have been those associated with enclosed tunnel systems, including the Hoosac Railway Works and the London Underground. In this episode, we turn our attention to another pair of tunnels, where a succession of bizarre and inexplicable incidents gave rise to what are now known as the Sullivan County Hauntings.   Chime is not just smarter banking, it is the most rewarding way to bank.

Today we want to bring back an episode from our archives.  It's about a book that has real beach read vibes. There's a lot of water. It's a relationship drama. And it's also a daring story of survival.  “Marriage at Sea: A True Story of Love, Obsession and Shipwreck" made it onto the Book Review Top 10 Books of 2025 and the paperback edition just came out a few weeks ago. It tells the unbelievable story of a British couple in the 1970s who try to sail around the world. They're trying to reach New Zealand and they almost make it. But their boat gets capsized by a whale in the middle of the vast Pacific Ocean and they're forced to survive there for quite a while.  Here is our conversation from last year with the author, Sophie Elmhirst.  Subscribe today at nytimes.com/podcasts or on Apple Podcasts and Spotify.

The Robertson family may have stumbled onto a surprisingly simple secret to a long, healthy life, and Jase, Al, and Zach compare the routines that have kept generations of their family going strong. The guys also reflect on a military veteran who searched for truth in Islam before finding peace in Jesus, then turn to James 2 for a hard look at favoritism, wealth, and celebrity culture inside the church. They challenge every Christian to reflect on how they treat others, and dig into why even correct theology becomes empty noise when it is separated from the character of Jesus.
