In this episode, Brian welcomes John from Indiana for a gripping conversation that dives headfirst into the strange, unsettling, and deeply fascinating edges of the paranormal. John shares his journey from lifelong skeptic to reluctant believer, a transformation sparked by a ghost hunt at the Randolph County Infirmary that challenged everything he thought he knew. From there, the experiences only escalate.He recounts chilling encounters in Ohio's Tar Hollow State Park, where unexplained stenches, heavy movements, and unnatural sounds hinted at something far from ordinary—possibly even Bigfoot itself.The conversation takes a darker turn as John describes a terrifying late-night drive that brought him face-to-face with a gray, humanoid figure crossing the road, an encounter eerily reminiscent of what many refer to as a “pale crawler.”Together, Brian and John explore possible explanations for these phenomena, weaving in theories involving ancient Native American mounds, burial sites, and the idea that certain locations may act as catalysts for high strangeness. John also introduces his podcast, Myths, Monsters, and the Unexplained, where he continues to investigate cryptids, folklore, and firsthand encounters that refuse to fit neatly into our understanding of reality.This episode blurs the line between skepticism and belief and asks the question: what happens when the unexplained starts following you home?Myths Monsters and Mullets YouTube ChannelGet Our FREE NewsletterGet Brian's Books Leave Us A VoicemailVisit Our WebsiteBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/sasquatch-odyssey--4839697/support.

After the midnight visit from the men in black, Brian is left with a choice—back down, or push forward and risk everything. There's no middle ground anymore. Daniel, uneasy but resolute, agrees to stand with him no matter what comes next. Every document is copied. Multiple backups are created and hidden in separate locations. If the evidence disappears, the truth won't disappear with it. As the pressure mounts, Zach makes contact with an underground network of researchers who have been operating in the shadows for decades—people with their own stories of intimidation, silencing, and government interference. They know the rules of this world. They know how to survive it.Then an opportunity arrives they never anticipated. Documentary filmmaker Amanda steps forward, determined to tell the story. She's meticulous, credible, and unafraid of the implications. Once she's in, there's no turning back. The crew arrives in November. Interviews begin. Physical evidence is examined and verified by independent experts. But it quickly becomes clear they're not alone. A break-in at the rental house leaves one thing missing—documents. Nothing else is disturbed. Days later, a tracking device is discovered beneath a crew member's car. The message is unmistakable: we see you, and we can reach you whenever we want.They keep filming anyway. Two weeks before Christmas, the phone rings. The same calm, practiced voice from that first encounter delivers a final warning. But this time, something slips—something unintended.“The creatures are just one piece of a much larger puzzle. ”Brian refuses to back down. On the other end of the line, the voice sounds almost regretful.“Then I'm sorry for what's going to happen. ”As tensions rise, Zach uncovers the existence of Project Threshold—a classified Department of Defense operation launched in 1962. The revelation is staggering. The government hasn't merely covered up the existence of these creatures. They've been managing them. Containing them. Controlling them. For decades—possibly since the 1940s. And buried even deeper is something else. Something far more dangerous. Something they fear more than the creatures themselves.Then, just before dawn, there's a knock at the door. No one is there. Only a manila envelope resting on the doormat, stamped with a single word: TRUTH. Inside is a file marked Project Vulcan. Dated May 18, 1980—the day Mount St. Helens erupted.In the chaos following the eruption, military recovery teams entered the blast zone. What they retrieved was never meant to be known: seventeen dead specimens. Three critically injured. One survivor. The photographs are impossible to deny. A massive, seven-foot-tall creature lies strapped to a stretcher, its body scorched, its hair burned away, surrounded by men in hazmat suits. The conclusion is unavoidable. The United States government didn't just know these beings existed.They've been studying them—for over forty years. Next episode: The truth comes out—and the consequences begin.Get Our FREE NewsletterGet Brian's Books Leave Us A VoicemailVisit Our WebsiteBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/sasquatch-odyssey--4839697/support.

Fluent Fiction - Danish: Finding Refuge: Astrid's Winter Odyssey in Sisimiut Find the full episode transcript, vocabulary words, and more:fluentfiction.com/da/episode/2026-01-29-23-34-02-da Story Transcript:Da: Himlen var tung og grå over Sisimiut.En: The sky was heavy and gray over Sisimiut.Da: Sneen dalede tætte mod jorden og dækkede alting i byen.En: Snow fell densely toward the ground and covered everything in the town.Da: Det var vinter, og sneen lagde sin kolde, blide hånd over huse og gader.En: It was winter, and the snow laid its cold, gentle hand over houses and streets.Da: Menneskene skyndte sig hjem, for stormen var på vej.En: People hurried home, for the storm was on its way.Da: Astrid kiggede mod øst, hvor sneen nærmest svingede gennem luften.En: Astrid looked east, where the snow almost swung through the air.Da: Hun vidste, hvad det betød.En: She knew what it meant.Da: Stormen ville fange dem.En: The storm would catch them.Da: Astid boede i et lille hus med udsigt over fjorden, og hun dagdrømte ofte om Nuuk.En: Astrid lived in a small house overlooking the fjord, and she often daydreamed about Nuuk.Da: Der i hovedstaden ventede muligheder.En: There in the capital, opportunities awaited.Da: Men nu var det her i Sisimiut, at hun måtte vise sit værd.En: But now, it was here in Sisimiut that she had to prove her worth.Da: Lars, byens ældste, stod midt på torvet.En: Lars, the oldest in town, stood in the middle of the square.Da: Hans stemme var som en stærk vind, der bar langt: "Vi lukker alt!En: His voice was like a strong wind that carried far: "We're closing everything!Da: Bliv inde og hold jer varme!"En: Stay inside and keep warm!"Da: Astrid samlede en gruppe unge i byens forsamlingshus, heriblandt Nina, hendes bedste veninde.En: Astrid gathered a group of young people in the town's community hall, including Nina, her best friend.Da: "Vi må handle nu," sagde Astrid.En: "We must act now," said Astrid.Da: "Før vi bliver helt afskåret."En: "Before we are completely cut off."Da: De havde kun få forsyninger.En: They only had a few supplies.Da: Skolens kantine havde lidt mad på lager, og Nina foreslog, at de delte ud til dem, der mest havde brug for det.En: The school's cafeteria had some food in stock, and Nina suggested sharing it with those who needed it the most.Da: De unge begyndte straks at organisere planener.En: The young people immediately began organizing plans.Da: Lastsledninger blev boret ind i sneen for at holde forbindelsen mellem husene.En: Power lines were drilled into the snow to maintain connections between houses.Da: Sammen, på trods af kulden, bevarede de kontakten.En: Together, despite the cold, they kept in contact.Da: Dagene gik langsomt i den hvide fængsel, og natten faldt skridsikkert ind over byen som en mørk is.En: Days passed slowly in the white prison, and the night slipped into the town like dark ice.Da: Astrid vidste, at noget måtte ske.En: Astrid knew that something had to happen.Da: Lars var erfaren, men han holdt fast i gamle måder, som ikke altid passede til nutidens udfordringer.En: Lars was experienced, but he clung to old ways that didn't always fit today's challenges.Da: En dag, i det stadig mørklagte forsamlingshus, hævede Astrid stemme: "Vi må være praktiske.En: One day, in the still-dark community hall, Astrid raised her voice: "We must be practical.Da: Hvorfor ikke dele mindre måltider hyppigere?En: Why not share smaller meals more frequently?Da: Eller mødes i vores hjem for at spare på varmen?"En: Or meet in our homes to save on heating?"Da: Lars skulede, men musklerne omkring hans øjne blødgjorde.En: Lars scowled, but the muscles around his eyes softened.Da: Han nikkede langsomt.En: He nodded slowly.Da: "Dine ideer er gode, Astrid.En: "Your ideas are good, Astrid.Da: Lad os prøve dem."En: Let's try them."Da: De justerede deres strategi, og byens folk fandt styrke i fællesskabet.En: They adjusted their strategy, and the townsfolk found strength in the community.Da: Snart gik der rygter om Astrids beslutsomhed, og mange følte sig inspireret.En: Soon, there were rumors of Astrid's determination, and many felt inspired.Da: Stormen rasede lidt længere end monsteret i natten, men som alle storme, ebbede også denne ud.En: The storm raged a bit longer than the monster in the night, but like all storms, it eventually subsided.Da: Himlen ryddede, og en klar, blå kulisse blev afsløret efter de mange dages kamp mod naturens vrede.En: The sky cleared, and a bright, blue backdrop was revealed after many days of battling nature's fury.Da: Astrid gik ud på gaden, mens solens sene vinterstråler varmede hendes ansigt.En: Astrid stepped out onto the street as the late winter sun warmed her face.Da: Hun trak vejret dybt og vidste, at der nu ikke bare var Nuuk for hende.En: She took a deep breath and knew there was now more than just Nuuk for her.Da: Sisimiut havde også brug for hende.En: Sisimiut also needed her.Da: Med et nyt blik, tænkte hun, kunne hun måske bringe lidt af den forandring til sin hjemmeby, som hun længe havde søgt i hovedstaden.En: With a new perspective, she thought, she could perhaps bring some of the change to her hometown that she had long sought in the capital.Da: Måske skulle hun ikke afsted med det samme.En: Maybe she didn't need to leave immediately.Da: Måske var det her, hun hørte til, at hun alligevel skulle begynde.En: Maybe this was where she belonged, where she should start after all.Da: For første gang mærkede Astrid en tilhørsfornemmelse, der gik dybere end drømmen om Nuuk.En: For the first time, Astrid felt a sense of belonging that went deeper than the dream of Nuuk.Da: Hun smilede til Nina, der kom gående op imod hende.En: She smiled at Nina, who was walking up toward her.Da: "Lad os lave en plan," sagde hun med glædens lys i sine øjne.En: "Let's make a plan," she said with the light of joy in her eyes.

TikTok just updated its terms, and it's one of those changes that's easy to scroll past but hard to ignore once you slow down and read it. Recent platform updates raise important questions about ownership, precise location data, and what creators are actually agreeing to when they publish their work. Today, we take a look at what changed and why it matters if you're building anything that lasts. We also zoom out to see where podcasting fits into the bigger picture. Recent studies show podcast ads outperform YouTube when it comes to driving real results. If you're a Mac user, we break down Apple's new Creator Studio bundle and the value it offers with tools like Logic Pro and Final Cut Pro. Apps that once required separate purchases are now bundled together, raising an important question: Is this a response to creators looking for alternatives to the increasingly expensive Adobe suite? Listen in to learn what changes are coming and how you can best prepare.

In a first for the series, this episode of Bad Boys of Bankruptcy explores a decades-long dispute arising in North Carolina that was originally filed as a Chapter XII case under the Bankruptcy Act of 1898. Our host, Judge Elizabeth Gunn (Bankr. D.D.C.), is joined by Judge Joseph N. Callaway (Bankr. E.D.N.C.) and retired Judge J. Rich Leonard (Bankr. E.D.N.C.), who is now the dean of Campbell Law School. In a complicated scheme to defraud their limited partners, George Osserman and his confidant and girlfriend, Zan Galloway, formed an entity which acquired interests in four parcels of real property in North Carolina which were heavily mortgaged. Osserman then formed Tudor Associates Ltd. II, a Nebraska limited partnership, and appointed Galloway as the general partner. Tudor then acquired the properties from Osserman's other entity, and gave the other entity a note secured by a wraparound deed of trust on all of the properties. In 1977, Tudor filed for bankruptcy under Chapter XII of the Bankruptcy Act of 1898, and in 1979 proposed to sell the properties to an Ohio corporation that, unbeknownst to the bankruptcy court and other parties, was in fact controlled by Osserman. After learning that Osserman in fact controlled the purchaser, Tudor's limited partners sued in 1983 to set aside the sale on the grounds of fraud. Although Section 511 of the Bankruptcy Act of 1898 and Rule 60(b)(3) meant that the limited partners' claim was time barred, the bankruptcy court employed a novel theory and avoided one half of the transfer of the notes, totaling $11.6 million, on the grounds of fraud on the court. Judge Callaway recalls the extensive litigation and appeals that were involved in his efforts to collect on this judgment (including a subsequent Chapter 11 case filed by one of the judgment debtors), where he served as the Chapter XII trustee in the Tudor bankruptcy case, and Judge Leonard recounts the novel issues presented in the subsequent Chapter 11 case, including issues related to the bankruptcy court's “related to” jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1334.

The definitive biography of the creator of 2001: A Space Odyssey, The Shining, and A Clockwork Orange, presenting the most in-depth portrait yet of the groundbreaking filmmaker. The enigmatic and elusive filmmaker Stanley Kubrick has not been treated to a full-length biography in over twenty years. Kubrick: An Odyssey (Pegasus Books, 2024) fills that gap. This definitive book is based on access to the latest research, especially Kubrick's archive at the University of the Arts, London, as well as other private papers plus new interviews with family members and those who worked with him. It offers comprehensive and in-depth coverage of Kubrick's personal, private, public, and working life. Stanley Kubrick: An Odyssey investigates not only the making of Kubrick's films, but also about those he wanted (but failed) to make like Burning Secret, Napoleon, Aryan Papers, and A.I. This immersive biography will puncture the controversial myths about the reclusive filmmaker who created some of the most important works of art of the twentieth century. Robert P.

Several have also been made into films. Von Danikens ideas have been the inspiration for a wide range of television series, including the History Channel's hit Ancient Aliens. His research organization, the AASRA/legendarytimes.com, comprises laymen and academics from all walks of life. Internationally, there are about 10,000 members. He lives in Switzerland but is an ever-present figure on the international lecture circuit, traveling more than 100,000 miles a year.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/earth-ancients--2790919/support.

What if your sales motion created real partnerships instead of fragile price wins? That's the thread we pull with Hans, CEO of Odyssey Logistics, as he maps a journey from Danish directness and early Maersk rotations to leading a global multimodal platform through a roll-up-to-one-brand transformation. The conversation is practical, candid, and loaded with moves you can copy tomorrow—whether you're running a desk or running a P&L.We start with the foundation: a value proposition built on facts, not slogans. Hans explains how probing, silence, and quarterly KPI reviews expose true customer pain, unlock share of wallet, and make relationships stick at multiple levels, including the C-suite. He shares why he spends heavy time in the field, what onsite town halls surface that email never will, and how a consistent cadence—global Q&A, divisional sessions, defined values—turns culture from posters into behavior.Then we dig into Odyssey's shift from 16+ legacy brands to One Odyssey. Hans breaks down the integration playbook: centralizing shared services, standardizing procurement, and rebranding fast without crushing entrepreneurial spirit. He's frank about PE carve-outs, IT risk, and why overcommunication beats overpromising during ownership changes. On growth, we get specific: three levers—share of wallet, new logos, and cross-sell—powered by a cross-trained sales force and subject matter experts. Multimodal strategy is the differentiator, with intermodal often beating truckload on cost and CO2 when planned well.Technology underpins the whole plan. A data lake fuels route optimization, predictive analytics, and automated bidding, while better systems lift both customer outcomes and employee satisfaction. Odyssey's rebranded brokerage in Atlanta becomes the easy entry point—truckload and LTL open the door to deeper multimodal solutions. Hans closes with career advice that never expires: choose training over titles, learn every job, stay humble, and remember the team is smarter than any one of us.If this resonates, follow the show, share it with a colleague who sells on price, and leave a quick review so more people can find conversations that move logistics forward.Follow The Freight Pod and host Andrew Silver on LinkedIn.Thanks to our sponsors:Stuut Technologies: Your AI coworker that collects your cash automatically.https://www.stuut.ai/Cloneops.ai: Not just AI.

Gabe Charalambides is the founder of Odyssey, the world's leading provider of psilocybin-assisted therapy, and a Stanford-trained aerospace engineer whose personal experience with anxiety helped shape a mission: making psychedelic healing safer, more responsible, and more accessible to everyday people. After years working alongside leading psychedelic organizations, Gabe launched Odyssey in 2023 and helped open the first legal psilocybin retreat in the U.S., rooted in screening, preparation, and evidence-based support.In this conversation, we explore what psilocybin therapy can look like when done responsibly—why education, intention-setting, and integration matter as much as the ceremony itself. Gabe explains how psilocybin may reduce mental rigidity, increase psychological flexibility, and help people move through trauma, rumination, and fear—especially the existential distress that can come with a cancer diagnosis. We also break down what a guided experience typically involves (screening, preparation sessions, a full-day facilitated journey, and post-session integration), what outcomes Odyssey is tracking through an IRB-approved study, and why many participants describe their experience as one of the most meaningful of their lives.If you've been curious about psychedelics but unsure what “safe” really means—or you're navigating chronic illness, anxiety, or trauma and looking for new tools—this episode offers a grounded, practical look at what's real, what's promising, and what to consider before taking the next step.

The duo teamed up with writer-director Joe Carnahan to bring the script to life — inspired by true events from Miami Police Department's Tactical Narcotics Team.

The Oscar-winning actor also reflects on the trajectory of his early career, the highs and lows of being a Boston sports fan, and the profound gratitude he experienced while working with Christopher Nolan on the upcoming film The Odyssey.

Over the next few weeks, I'm gonna be sharing my new book with you—start to finish. The whole thing. It's called Bigfoot Country. All told, it's around eight hours of narration. So, I'll be putting it out in multiple episodes. And honestly... I've been sitting on this for a long time. I'm excited—and a little nervous—to finally put it out there. But before we jump in, I wanna take a minute. Just you and me.What you're about to hear is loosely based on my life. Some of it happened exactly the way I tell it. No embellishment, no polish. Other parts are rooted in real experiences—real people, real moments, real emotions—but maybe stretched a bit, or reimagined, to help the story breathe. And then there are parts where… well, you get to decide what you believe.I also wanna be upfront about something. Early on, you might find yourself wondering where this is all headed. There's a lot of groundwork—family, childhood, personal history. Just know this: it's going somewhere. This book is about Bigfoot. That's the destination. I promise. Just trust me long enough to get there. At its heart, this is a story about my earliest experiences with the strange and unexplained. It starts with something that happened to me when I was twelve years old—an encounter with what I believe was a Sasquatch. That moment stayed with me. It shaped a lot of who I became. And for years, I struggled with how—or even if—I should ever tell that story. Because how do you talk about something the world insists isn't real? How do you open yourself up like that, knowing people are gonna judge you, doubt you, or dismiss you entirely?But these stories have always mattered to me. This book has always mattered. And at some point, I realized I was done keeping it all tucked away. Here's the thing, though—I didn't just write about Bigfoot. I wrote about me. All of me. My childhood. My parents. My failures. My struggles. And yeah… Dani.I know that part isn't gonna sit well with everyone. I get that. Some folks are gonna have opinions, and that's their right. But for me, leaving any of that out would've been dishonest. I can't ask you to trust me with these experiences and then hide pieces of who I am. I can't tell my story without including the person who stood beside me through the hardest parts of it. That's just not how I live, and it's not how this book was written.Believe me, I thought about sanding down the rough edges. Making it cleaner. Safer. Easier to swallow. Cutting out the parts that might make people uncomfortable. But I couldn't do it. I've spent too much of my life holding back, and I'm done with that.So this is me. This is my story. All of it. Some of what you'll hear happened exactly as I describe it. Some of it is how I imagine things might have gone—if the timing had been different, if I'd pushed harder, if the world worked the way I think it sometimes should.And one last thing before we start—this is Book One. There's more coming. A lot more. This is just the beginning. I hope you enjoy Bigfoot Country... as much as I did writing it. Part One is called The Hollow, and it begins in September of 1984. I was eleven years old, just a few months shy of twelve, and my family had just moved to a place called Lyerly, Georgia. Population next to nothing. No stoplight. One gas station. The kind of town where everybody knew everybody's business before you even finished doing it. We moved into an old house at the end of a dirt road—a house that looked like something had crawled there to die. White paint gone gray. Porch sagging in the middle. Eighty acres of woods stretching out behind it like a wall. My father, Jerry Patterson, was a drinker. A man whose silence usually meant a storm was building. My mother, Jean, was small but fierce in the ways that mattered—even if she couldn't fix the things that were broken in our family. She stayed. She always stayed. The woods became my escape. I spent those early weeks mapping the land, building forts out of fallen branches and rotting tarps, disappearing into the trees whenever the tension at home got too thick. I learned every trail, every landmark, every corner of that property. All except one. There was a section way back at the far edge, where our land butted up against the national forest, that I couldn't bring myself to enter. Every time I got close, something pushed me back. A wrongness I couldn't name. A feeling like walking into a cold spot in a warm room.One day in late October, I decided I'd had enough of being scared. I was almost twelve years old. Too old for this. So I grabbed my BB gun and headed out to prove to myself there was nothing back there worth fearing. I was wrong. What I found was a clearing with a depression in the ground where something big had been bedding down. The smell hit me first—wet dog mixed with a dumpster behind a butcher shop. And then the sounds. Heavy footsteps. Bipedal. Something walking on two legs that weighed more than any man. Huffing. Growling. Sounds that rose and fell in patterns that almost seemed like language. It charged at me through the underbrush, stopped maybe twenty feet away, and just... breathed. Watched. Decided. It let me go.I ran home faster than I'd ever run in my life. And I never told a soul.But that wasn't the only strangeness that followed us to that house. At night, I started hearing voices in the walls—whispery, indistinct, speaking in languages I couldn't understand. A dark figure began appearing at the foot of my bed, a void shaped like a man, watching me while I lay frozen and unable to scream. Scratching moved through the walls like something was circling me. Three heavy knocks shook my bedroom door one night, and when I opened it, no one was there—but downstairs, a fire was burning in a fireplace we never used, in a chimney my father said was blocked.Something was in that house. Something that had been there before us and didn't want us there. And then, in January, everything changed. My mother got sick. Skin Cancer. The doctors gave her six months, maybe a year. And my father—the man who was supposed to hold us together—disappeared. Shacked up with some woman in another town, drowning himself in pills and booze while his wife was dying and his son was alone. I ended up staying with my best friend Brad Henderson's family. They took me in without question, gave me a bed and a place at their table. And every weekend, someone drove me to Atlanta so I could watch my mother fade away in a hospital room. She lost her hair. Lost her weight. Lost everything except her will to fight.Against all odds, she won. Almost a year to the day after her diagnosis, the doctors told us her cancer was in remission. She came home for Christmas, weighing maybe eighty pounds, wrapped in a scarf my friend's mother had knitted for her. And the first thing she did was look at my father's empty chair and say the words I'd been waiting to hear my whole life. We're leaving. But leaving wasn't simple. My father showed up one last time, took my mother's pain medication right out of the medicine cabinet, and vanished. He started selling those pills around town—the same town that had taken up a collection to help us, the same community that had rallied around my dying mother while he was nowhere to be found People got angry. The wrong kind of people. One night in January, I woke up to the sound of voices and vehicles in the yard. I looked out my window and saw twenty figures in white robes standing around a burning cross. The Klan had come to our house. Not because of us—because of him. Because of the shame he'd brought on his family in a place that took such things seriously.We left Lyerly two weeks later. My mother divorced my father, took back her maiden name, and we started over in a tiny apartment in Summerville. Two bedrooms. Thin walls. Stained carpet. But it was ours. And it was safe. I got a job at Dairy Queen. Went to school. Helped my mother however I could. The nightmares followed me—the dark figure, the dreams of something chasing me through endless woods—but I buried it all. Pushed it down. Told myself it didn't matter anymore.But I never forgot what I heard in those woods. Never forgot that huffing, that growling, those footsteps too heavy to be human. I knew it was real. I knew it was out there. And someday, I was going to find it again.But first, I had to grow up. First, I had to survive. That's Part One of Bigfoot Country.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/sasquatch-odyssey--4839697/support.
