Podcasts about obsessive search

We only touch the tip of her knowledge in this conversation, but still manage to cover the grimmest deaths at Disneyland, a South American Nazi cult, the most cursed book in history and Kaelyn's own family history with an early American serial killer. All that, plus a lot of recommendations for movies and the gruesome true-crime reading. Stick around for the afterword, and plenty of updates on the future of Talking Scared, Enjoy! Happy Halloween.  Books mentioned: The Man From the Train: The Solving of a Century-Old Serial Killer Mystery (2017), by Bill James and Rachel McCarthy JamesThe Butchering Art: Joseph Lister's Quest to Transform the Grisly World of Victorian Medicine (2017), by Lindsey FitzharrisI'll Be Gone in the Dark: One Woman's Obsessive Search for the Golden State Killer (2018), by Michelle McNamaraThe Devil's Rooming House: the True Story of America's Deadliest Female Serial Killer (2011), by M.

Visit our store HERE for all of your favorite serial killer gear!!! Joseph James DeAngelo Jr. (born November 8, 1945) is an American serial killer, serial rapist, burglar, and a former police officer who committed at least 13 murders, 50 rapes, and 120 burglaries across California between 1974 and 1986. DeAngelo was responsible for at least three crime sprees throughout California, each of which spawned a different nickname in the press before it became evident that they were committed by the same person. In the San Joaquin Valley, he was known as the Visalia Ransacker before moving to the Sacramento area, where he became known as the East Area Rapist and was linked by modus operandi to additional attacks in Contra Costa County, Stockton, and Modesto. DeAngelo committed serial murders in Santa Barbara, Ventura, and Orange counties, where he was known as the Night Stalker and later the Original Night Stalker (owing to serial killer Richard Ramirez also being called the "Night Stalker"). DeAngelo is believed to have taunted and threatened both victims and police in obscene phone calls and possibly written communications. True-crime writer, the late Michelle McNamara, is credited with coining the name The Golden State killer in her book I'll Be Gone in the Dark: One Woman's Obsessive Search for the Golden State Killer.

In this episode Athena talks about Joseph DeAngelo AKA the Golden State Killer and the book I'll Be Gone in the Dark: One Woman's Obsessive Search for the Golden State Killer, written by Michelle McNamara. Athena tells a personal connection to the GSK and there may be a censorship/instaship rant. I give a shout out to National Concealed Carry Association and their amazing stock of top shelf knives at some of the best prices I've ever seen. And no, I didn't get paid to say that, I actually believe it.       Come say hi on Parler, Facebook or gmail Vanishedinthevalley@gmail.com and let me know if you have any info on this case or other cover ups. @vanished_in_the_valley_athena   Fuck Instagram and their censorship

Brooke Jarvis is a contributing writer for The New York Times Magazine.“Obsession is inherently interesting. We want to know why somebody would care so much about something that it could direct their whole life. ... When people care about something a lot, what can be more interesting than that to understand what drives those powerful emotions? ... Part of why I do this work is that I am able to get temporarily obsessed with a lot of different things and then move on to the next thing that I'm temporarily obsessed with. ... There's always a new question that I want to follow.” Thanks to Mailchimp for sponsoring this week's episode.

Welcome to The Wild Card Podcast!  This is episode 149 of our attempt at this whole podcasting thing!! Today's episode features: Jared Eaton shedding a tear, Jeff Curtis feeling the gravitational pull of Morgan Freeman, and Ron Blair being mad as Hell!! Throughout the episode, you'll hear the three of us discuss such varied topics as: the way this podcast is about the stupidity of cancelling Halloween, a commercial you've never movied or candied, movie quotes that describe The Wild Cards, the majesty of All Saint's Day, not looking in Ron's belly, and occasionally we part from our tangents to discuss one of the most prolific serial killers in California history: The Golden State Killer. This week, Jared discusses the killer's background, the stages and escalation of his career, personal accounts from some of the survivors, and the incredible forensics that led to his arrest!  Join us on this journey to wherever and while the topic this week might not be the most fun, we sure are glad you're joining us for our Podcast, no joke!Please like/subscribe and leave comments below! Let us know your thoughts on the Golden State Killer, movie quotes that represent the Wild Cards (share what you think and tag one of us and we'll give you a movie quote, too!), whether you have felt Morgan Freeman's gravitational pull, what you will do if they try to cancel Halloween, positivity chains (encourage one another!), your thoughts about our approaching sesquicentennial, any future reports you'd like us to do, and if you, like Cardinal Richelieu, Michael Adams, are interested in being an official Deckhead!P.S.  “A forensic match between the cases didn't exist but a feeling did, a sense that a single mind was at work, someone who didn't leave many clues or talk or show his face, someone who strolled undetected in the middle-class swarm, an ordinary man with a resting-pulse derangement.”~ Michelle McNamara, I'll Be Gone in the Dark: One Woman's Obsessive Search for the Golden State KillerP.P.S. Stay Safe, Stay Wild, and Bite the Edge!

Michelle McNamara, the author of the posthumously published "I'll be Gone in the Dark: One Woman's Obsessive Search for the Golden Gate Killer," is a sad and vivid example of the creative and destructive power of obsession. She died before finishing the book, of an overdose of prescription drugs that she was taking to fuel her writing and calm her anxiety. Her obsession with the Golden State Killer was both creative and destructive. In this episode of Creative Happy Hour, we drink Golden State Cider and discuss the story of Michelle McNamara, and what obsession can do to (and for) you.

Andi and Lise each read a book and then talked about it. The cool part is, they didn’t tell each other which book they decided to read, so it was happy fun discovery time! Lise read Tamsyn Muir’s Gideon the Ninth (2019), which is, basically, lesbian necromancers in a gothic space palace with swordplay and intrigue and why the hell wouldn’t you want to read this awesome-ness? Gideon, the MC, is trying to escape a life of paranormal servitude but her childhood nemesis won’t let her leave without yet another service. And that nemesis is the powerful daughter of the 9th House, and in order to succeed in the emperor’s contest of wits and skills, Harrowhark needs her cavalier—Gideon on and her sword. Lise raved about the world-building, characterization, and Muir’s writing style. Find out more about Tamsyn Muir on Amazon. Andi read April Daniels’ Dreadnought (Nemesis Book One; 2017), an emotional roller-coaster of a ride starring teen Danny Tozer, who inherits the powers of superhero Dreadnought. In the transfer, the inheritor becomes their true self, and Danny is at last the young woman she has always known she’s been. But she has to deal with her unaccepting parents, coming out at school, figuring out where she fits in the league of superheroes, how her powers work and, on top of all that, the supervillain who murdered the previous Dreadnought. Andi loved the dialogue, the pacing, adventure, and yes, even the gut-wrenching turmoil Danny had to face. Find out more about April Daniels on Amazon. Andi’s shout-out this week was to true crime books; she just finished the late Michelle McNamara’s I’ll Be Gone in the Dark: One Woman’s Obsessive Search for the Golden State Killer and plz don’t read this at night kthx. AND check out the TGIFemflash fancon in February, 2020! Here’s the link. Lise’s shout-out was for the TV series The Good Place, in which a woman ends up in a heaven-like utopia afterlife by mistake, but she then works to change her ways so she can stay. You can catch earlier seasons on Netflix. https://lezgeekoutcast.files.wordpress.com/2019/09/lgo_62_books.mp3

A masterful true crime account of the Golden State Killer—the elusive serial rapist turned murderer who terrorized California for over a decade—from Michelle McNamara, the gifted journalist who died tragically while investigating the case. "You’ll be silent forever, and I’ll be gone in the dark." For more than ten years, a mysterious and violent predator committed fifty sexual assaults in Northern California before moving south, where he perpetrated ten sadistic murders. Then he disappeared, eluding capture by multiple police forces and some of the best detectives in the area. Three decades later, Michelle McNamara, a true crime journalist who created the popular website TrueCrimeDiary.com, was determined to find the violent psychopath she called "the Golden State Killer." Michelle pored over police reports, interviewed victims, and embedded herself in the online communities that were as obsessed with the case as she was. At the time of the crimes, the Golden State Killer was between the ages of eighteen and thirty, Caucasian, and athletic—capable of vaulting tall fences. He always wore a mask. After choosing a victim—he favored suburban couples—he often entered their home when no one was there, studying family pictures, mastering the layout. He attacked while they slept, using a flashlight to awaken and blind them. Though they could not recognize him, his victims recalled his voice: a guttural whisper through clenched teeth, abrupt and threatening. I’ll Be Gone in the Dark—the masterpiece McNamara was writing at the time of her sudden death—offers an atmospheric snapshot of a moment in American history and a chilling account of a criminal mastermind and the wreckage he left behind. It is also a portrait of a woman’s obsession and her unflagging pursuit of the truth. Framed by an introduction by Gillian Flynn and an afterword by her husband, Patton Oswalt, the book was completed by Michelle’s lead researcher and a close colleague. Utterly original and compelling, it is destined to become a true crime classic—and may at last unmask the Golden State Killer. give it a'listen We finally delve into some true crime this week--and it brought up a lot of feels.

Seems like you can’t swing a weeded book these days without hitting a true crime podcast. But having a large swathe of our communities so engaged with a narrative—that’s good news for libraries, because we traffic in helping folks find their next obsession. But it ain’t all true crime; this episode also touches on another kind of graphic storytelling—the graphic novel, and why they’re so important to libraries. Truly, this episode contains multitudes.

Behind the Badge with DianeThis episode is the first of the interview series where I talk with friends and colleagues about their career changes. Our occupational lives are so complex and often the pathway takes many turns due to life, opportunities, challenges, or new ways of seeing your own career. This might be out of personal interest and perspective; however, I will have a conversation with a few women who have left one industry for another role. In the conversation with Diane, we talk a bit about what goes on behind the badge. Diane is a campus police officer now; however, she has worked in residence life, studied forensic psychology, and talk English overseas. We discuss everything from volunteering, Zumba, policy academy, and resources you should consider for getting into police enforcement as a women. I am grateful for Diane's honest and willingness to share her successes, challenges, failures, and lessons learned. I learn so much about opportunities to work with the government and other agencies related to law, and Diane reminds us that NCIS or Criminal minds is not the FBI/CIA fully. Much of the career paths and point of entry look different, so we list a few generic ways to learn more about this career path below. I know I am reminded about what life on campus looks like for an officer, the humorous, scary, and typical events do community policing or patrol on a daily basis. In talking about police enforcement, there was some surprising, appalling, and insightful aspects for what women in the academy deal with when entering the field. From this experience, I think listening to this conversation reminds me about how we work with, talk to, and treat one another is so very important beyond work and in society. Also, she reminds us how working in service to the public does take a toll on your physically and emotionally, so we swap resources and ideas.“If you support me, my confidence builds. If you make me feel like I'm literally less than you because I'm female, then I can't grow here.” Diane shares her Police Experiences as a Women. Resources from things we discussed on this episode:-What is a Forensic Psychologist? https://www.psychology.org/careers/forensic-psychologist/#what-is -FBI Jobs https://www.fbijobs.gov/ -Central Intelligence Agency Careers https://www.cia.gov/careers/index.html -Police Academy Requirements (US) https://policeacademyhub.com/-Physical Ability Test (PAT) https://nationaltestingnetwork.com/publicsafetyjobs/ntn-test-pat.cfm -As of 2017, 14.1% offers are women from Police Officers | Data USA https://datausa.io/profile/soc/333050/  -Campus Police https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Campus_police -Copline http://www.copline.org/ is the suicide/help hotline for police-Citizen's Police Academy https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Citizen%27s_Police_Academy -Citizen's Academy for FBI https://www.fbi.gov/about/community-outreachBooks Recommendations:--Emotional Survival for Law Enforcement: A Guide for Officers & Their Families by Kevin Gilmartin--Food Freedom Forever: Letting Go of Bad Habits, Guilt, and Anxiety Around Food by Melissa Hartwig--Resisting Happiness by Matthew Kelly--The Evil That Men Do by R.

This episode features an interview Matt Tullis did with Brooke Jarvis in May 2015. In the interview, Jarvis talks about her story “The Deepest Dig,” which was included in the Best American Science and Nature Writing 2015 anthology. That story ran in the California Sunday Magazine. She also talked about her piece “Homeward,” which also ran in the California Sunday Magazine. That story is about a young man from the jungles of Ecuador, whose village sent him to the United States so he could be educated and come back to save the village from the oil industry and colonization. Since joining the podcast, Jarvis won the Livingston Award in National Reporting — she won that in 2017 for her story “Unclaimed.” In 2016, she was the recipient of the Reporting Award from NYU’s Arthur L. Carter Journalism Institute, and a finalist for the PEN USA Literary Award in Journalism and the Livingston Award in International Reporting. In November of 2017, her story “How One Woman’s Digital Life Was Weaponized Against Her” went viral after being the cover story on Wired Magazine. And in December, she had a piece in the New York Times Magazine about the children of undocumented immigrants whose parents had been deported, and yet they were left stateside. In June, Jarvis’s story, “The Obsessive Search for the Tasmanian Tiger,” ran in The New Yorker. The Tasmanian Tiger has long been thought extinct, but now there is hope that it is still alive.

With the rise of true crime podcasts, documentaries, and television shows (hey, murderinos!), JJ (who is also crime obsessed) can't help but wonder—why hasn't human trafficking been taken up by the true crime community? This week, Seth and JJ discuss why studying killers can be helpful to those who study trafficking, how the true crime community can help, and the legal differences between trafficking and other crimes like kidnapping. JJ also weirds out Seth with her love of murder.

Created by writer Fabian Niciezaand artist/writer Rob Liefeld, the character first appeared in The New Mutants #98 (cover-dated February 1991).

Deadpool, whose real name is Wade Wilson, is a disfigured and deeply disturbed mercenary and assassin with the superhuman ability of an accelerated healing factor and physical prowess. The character is known as the "Merc with a Mouth" because of his tendency to joke constantly, including his proclivity for breaking the fourth wall, a literary device used by the writers for humorous effect and running gags.-- 18:55 - Solo - is a 2018 American space Western film based on the Star Wars character Han Solo. Directed by Ron Howard, it was produced by Lucasfilm and distributed by Walt Disney Studios Motion Pictures, and is the second of the Star Wars anthology films following 2016's Rogue One. A stand-alone installment set prior to the events of A New Hope, it explores the early adventures of Han Solo and Chewbacca, who also meet a young Lando Calrissian, as they are involved in a heist within the criminal underworld.

It stars the first film's main cast while introducing the character Boba Fett, who would appear in later films. It is one of the first official Star Wars spin-offs and was directed by Steve Binder.In the storyline that ties the special together, Chewbacca and Han Solo visit Kashyyyk, Chewbacca's home world, to celebrate Life Day. They are pursued by agents of the Galactic Empire, who are searching for members of the Rebel Alliance on the planet. The special introduces three members of Chewbacca's family: his father Itchy, his wife Malla, and his son Lumpy, though these names were later explained to have been nicknames, their full names being Attichitcuk, Mallatobuck, and Lumpawarrump, respectively.The program also features many other Star Wars characters, including Luke Skywalker, C-3PO, R2-D2, Darth Vader and Princess Leia (who sings the film's "theme song", set to the music of John Williams' Star Wars theme, near the end), all of them portrayed by the original actors.

The variety-show segments and cartoon also take place in a few other locales, such as a Mos Eisley cantina on the desert planet of Tatooine and a newly introduced red ocean planet known as Panna.The special is notorious for its extremely negative reception and has never been rebroadcast or officially released on home video. It has, therefore, become something of a cultural legend, because of the "underground" quality of its existence.

And when you know and when fame comes along fame is a bucket of water that kids come in thrown on top of you. And if you're just like this little seed you just get squashed all over the place you know you just take it for the ride. And if you're older those roots are settled in and they've gone in and are deep into the soil. So when that same amount of fame comes on you you're grounded and you can't and you don't get moved around as much. But that takes time."-- 48:34 - Overnight is a 2003 documentary by Tony Montana and Mark Brian Smith. The film details the rise and stumble

Patton Oswalt in conversation with Clarissa Cruz at Live Talks Los Angeles discussing his late wife Michelle McNamara’s book,  I’ll Be Gone in the Dark: One Woman’s Obsessive Search for the Golden State Killer. Later in the conversation they are joined on stage by Billy Jensen and Paul Haynes who helped complete the book. The talk took place on March 5, 2018 at The Writers Guild Theatre in Beverly Hills, CA.

Beloved crime writer Michelle McNamara died suddenly in 2016 before she could complete her book about an uncaught California serial killer she named the Golden State Killer. Her husband, comedian Patton Oswalt, hired crime writer Billy Jensen and Michelle's research assistant, Paul Haynes, to organize her drafts and notes into a publishable manuscript. Her incredible book, 'I'll Be Gone in the Dark: One Woman's Obsessive Search for the Golden State Killer' is now a number one New York Times bestseller. Michelle's book is an incredibly important addition to the lexicon of true crime: a beautiful, thoughtful, obsessive work that very well may lead to the capture of a prolific and brutal serial killer who operated in the mid 70s to mid 80s, responsible for 50 rapes and 10 murders. It was Billy and Paul that brought her work to life.
