Bryan Kohberger's Calls to “Mother” and Christmas Day Serial Killer Search EXPOSED Within hours of the Idaho student murders, Bryan Kohberger called his mother — not once, but repeatedly — for conversations totaling over three hours that day. He addressed his parents formally as “Mother” and “Father,” even texting, “Father, why is Mother not answering?” Was this routine? Desperation? Or an emotional tether to the only people who might never question him? Weeks later, on Christmas Day, Kohberger sat down and researched more than 20 serial killers — with a particular focus on Danny Rolling, the Gainesville Ripper. Rolling's crimes bore unsettling similarities to the Idaho murders: KA-BAR knife, sliding-door entry, and a focus on college students. By then, Kohberger had been stopped twice on his drive home, was gloving up to bag trash, and knew police were looking for his car. Was this paranoia-driven damage control, or a compulsive “copycat” study session? Former FBI Special Agent Robin Dreeke joins Tony Brueski to connect these two behaviors. From emotional anchors and routine-seeking to mimicry of notorious killers, we explore how Kohberger's post-crime actions reveal a man more concerned with validation and borrowed identity than originality. #BryanKohberger #Idaho4 #DannyRolling #TrueCrime #HiddenKillers #RobinDreeke #CriminalPsychology #SerialKillerResearch #IdahoMurders #BehavioralAnalysis Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Was Kohberger Planning Another Attack? Christmas Day Search History Analyzed Christmas Day, 2022 — just weeks after the Idaho murders — Bryan Kohberger sat down and researched more than 20 notorious serial killers. One name stood out: Danny Rolling, the Gainesville Ripper, whose crimes eerily mirrored Kohberger's alleged actions. Rolling used a KA-BAR knife, targeted college students, and entered through sliding doors — chilling parallels to the Idaho case. In this episode, former FBI Special Agent Robin Dreeke analyzes what this research spree means. Was Kohberger simply feeding a morbid curiosity, or was he conducting a tactical “after-action” review to identify mistakes and improve his methods? Did he believe he'd gotten away with it and could refine his approach for a “next time”? And how do Rolling's own post-crime behaviors — hiding weapons, evading capture — fit into Kohberger's apparent fixation? We also examine the broader context: Kohberger had been stopped twice on the way to Pennsylvania, was wearing gloves and bagging his trash, and knew police were looking for his car. Was this research paranoia-fueled damage control, or a compulsive dive into the crimes of people he hoped to emulate? #BryanKohberger #DannyRolling #Idaho4 #TrueCrime #HiddenKillers #RobinDreeke #SerialKillerResearch #IdahoMurders #BehavioralAnalysis #CriminalMindset Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

“Mark My Word” – Professor's​ SHOCKING ​EARLY Prediction About Bryan Kohberger​ EXPOSED! The latest document release in the Bryan Kohberger case pulls back the curtain on unsettling private details investigators uncovered — and they paint a darker picture than we've seen before. According to newly unsealed police files, Kohberger's phone contained just 18 contacts. Many weren't even names — they were cryptic, impersonal labels like “girl I ran with,” “second girl I ran with,” and “hair.” Outside of “Mother,” “Father,” and sister, there was almost no sign of a social circle. Investigators noted the eerie absence of communication with anyone beyond his immediate family. Even more chilling is an email from a Washington State University criminology professor, sent months before the murders, warning colleagues: “Mark my word… if we give him a Ph.D., that's the guy… we will hear is harassing, stalking, and sexually abusing.” That kind of blunt, predictive language about a graduate student is almost unheard of — and now feels haunting. Digital forensics dug deeper. Despite attempts to wipe his phone, investigators recovered search terms involving non-consensual acts — “forced,” “sleeping,” and worse — stored in autofill data. And on Christmas Day 2022, just six weeks after the killings, Kohberger downloaded files on more than twenty notorious serial killers, including Ted Bundy, John Wayne Gacy, and Danny Rolling, the Gainesville Ripper. Rolling's crimes — knife attacks on college students in their homes — are eerily similar to the Moscow murders. Then there's the photo roll. No crime scene images. No pictures of victims. Just countless shirtless mirror selfies and saved images of scantily clad women, none of which were shared. Detectives compared the vanity and self-focus to American Psycho's Patrick Bateman — a man in love with his own reflection. This isn't the evidence that convicted him. But these are the details that show the mindset behind the crimes — isolation, obsession, and a disturbing inner world now laid bare. #BryanKohberger #IdahoMurders #TrueCrime #AmericanPsycho #WSU #SerialKillers #Criminology #CrimeNews #TrueCrimeCommunity #IdahoFour Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Clive is a fancy man who writes a fancy Christmas newsletter every year to tell everyone about all the fun things he did this year. And every year, Joe gets this letter and it just makes him mad. He goes to talk to his wife and complain about how they never do anything. They're alive but they aren't living. We find out that he met Clive in elementary school because Clive was his pen-pal. It was immediately clear that they were from different worlds. To make matters worse, he ends up getting fired. He dreams of having to live on the streets and he wakes up the next day which I guess is Christmas day and tells his wife that he cashed out his 401k so that they can really have a year to remember. They're gonna ski. They're gonna go to the Bahamas. They're gonna see Tigger Woods. Up first, a very bizarre sleigh ride. His wife is not thrilled. And he caps it off by telling her that they're going to Clive's big birthday bash next summer.The hits keep coming - they go to a fancy place for New Year's Eve but I guess his suit isn't good enough. This leads to him accidentally pressing the button to drop the ball too early.The movie continues to be Joe & his family going on outings and it not being what they thought it was. His wife is like I'm not having fun, but he gaslights her into continuing along with the plan. After many many issues, he decides to delete the document he had been working on. But after getting the new letter from Clive, he finishes his letter. His wife tells him if he sends the letter, there might not be a we anymore. He ends up at a bar where Kristoffer Polaha is. And he gives him the same advice his wife gave him all year - his life is pretty good. No need to lie. It's Christmas Day and we see his wife getting a lot of calls about how amazing their Christmas card was. She's very confused.

Send us a textJoin us this week as we share some personal experiences as it relates to sections 85-87 of the Doctrine & Covenants...  Come Follow Me Section Summary:          "Christmas Day is usually a time to ponder messages like “peace on earth” and “good will toward men” (see Luke 2:14). But on December 25, 1832, Joseph Smith's mind was occupied with the threat of war. South Carolina had just defied the United States government and was preparing for battle. And the Lord revealed to Joseph that this was only the beginning: “War,” He declared, “will be poured out upon all nations” (Doctrine and Covenants 87:2). It seemed like this prophecy would be fulfilled very soon.         But then it wasn't. Within just a few weeks, South Carolina and the U.S. government reached a compromise, and war was averted. But revelation is not always fulfilled at the time or in the way we expect. Nearly 30 years later, long after Joseph Smith was martyred and the Saints had moved west, South Carolina did rebel and civil war followed. Since then, war throughout the world has caused “the earth [to] mourn” (Doctrine and Covenants 87:6). While the prophecy was ultimately fulfilled, the value of this revelation is less in predicting when calamity will come and more in teaching what to do when it does. The counsel is the same in 1831, 1861, and 2021: “Stand ye in holy places, and be not moved” (verse 8)."Support the show... Become a "Patron Saint"!!

"What happens when Paul Rudd, Jack Black, and a giant snake collide on Christmas Day?"In this laugh-out-loud edition of The Ben and Skin Show, the crew dives into the absurdity of Hollywood's latest fever dream: a satirical Anaconda reboot starring the ever-lovable Paul Rudd and Jack Black—with a surprise appearance by the legendary Steve Zahn. Is it a parody? A midlife crisis movie? A Tropic Thunder-style jungle disaster? No one knows for sure, but one thing's clear: “It's gonna be a big f***ing snake, and it's gonna rip!”

This week on The Thought SNOB Podcast, Paula Swope delivers an unfiltered deep dive into what sets Capricorns apart from the zodiac crowd—specifically, The Switch. Born on Christmas Day in 1976, Paula brings 48 years of lived Capricorn experience to the mic, pulling back the curtain on the quiet intensity that simmers beneath the surface.    In this candid and often humorous episode, she explores the traits that make Capricorns the most loyal and dependable people you'll ever meet—but also the most dangerous to cross. If you've ever wondered what happens when a Capricorn finally hits their limit, this one's for you.

Zebulon Perkins was found in a motel with the car of his former teacher, Vivian James, in late December 2019. James, a beloved high school teacher in Jacksonville, Florida, had been murdered. Perkins gave detectives a story about buying the car from a man. But the story didn't hold up and led to Perkins being implicated in another woman's murder on Christmas Day.

Watch on Philo! - Philo.tv/DTHThe movie kicks off with a couple dancing at a party, having a great time. It's Ben and Cassie and they end up dating. They are heading to rural Oregon to spend Christmas with his family. We meet Ben's sister who is really into vlogging, and their parents, Kirby & Mia. We immediately see that this family is a bit chaotic. They sit down for dinner and other brother Gordon shows up out of nowhere. The energy at this dinner is real weird. And then it comes out that she doesn't eat meat...and he doesn't eat meat either. Gordon begins to grill Cassie about why she's vegetarian and pushes back why it's about the environment. And Ben just kinda sits there and lets it happen. So Cassie is hurt that 1. Ben didn't tell them about being vegetarian and 2. that he'd just let Gordon attack her like that. He's like oh my bad, but look at my funny ho ho ho underwear. Wanna have smex? She does not. She tells him that this isn't working and has known that for a while. So they break up and we're not even 30 minutes in. The next morning, they go to buy her a flight but there's a big storm and there are no flights until after Christmas. The family is finally looped in. It's a whole thing.Ben decides the best way to fix this situation is by calling her best friend and asking for advice. Obviously that information gets back to Cassie which only makes things worse. His dad takes him out to the train tracks to tell him to stop being a dummy and just let her go. Cassie calls her mom and she could not be less helpful. But Ben's mom comes up and comforts her, cuz mom's gonna mom. The next day, she can't stand being in the room by herself anymore so she decides to go out with his family and she ends up having a fun time with everyone except for Ben who she is still giving the cold shoulder to.This gives Ben time to bond with Gordon over lost love.And Cassie ends up getting close to Ben's sister. Ben continues to not learn his lesson and tries to get back together with Cassie. It's Christmas Day and Cassie is thoughtful AF and gives everyone the perfect Christmas gift including some architecture socks for Ben, And then Ben surprises her by giving her a plane ticket home or a rental car to get her to Portland. She stays for lunch and then goes her way. The movie ends sometime later with the sister now going through a breakup and Gordon & Ben are helping her through while Ben wears his socks from Cassie.

During the summer break, the 15-Minute History podcast team are republishing some of their favorite episodes. This episode originally aired on March 20, 2020.___The world's most powerful communist leader ultimately signed his own resignation with a capitalist's pen on Christmas Day 1991. This episode traces the stunning reversal of the Cold War from 1979, when the Soviet Union seemed poised for global victory with only nineteen non-communist nations left outside NATO, to the peaceful collapse of the entire communist empire just twelve years later. Through the strategic partnership of Pope John Paul II, Margaret Thatcher, and Ronald Reagan, the West forced Moscow into an economic competition it couldn't win, while Gorbachev's own reforms backfired as Soviet citizens tasted Western freedoms. Discover how three leaders changed history and why the Cold War's end wasn't the happy ending many expected.

Don Higgins and Terry Peer are back with a packed episode of the Chasing Giants Podcast, diving deep into trail camera strategy, food plot updates, listener questions, and some wild woods stories you won't believe.

Ray, E.Z., Mark, and Oscar sit down to tackle a weighty and nuanced topic: war. This discussion isn't about political sides—it's about wrestling with the moral, spiritual, and personal implications of warfare in a fallen world. Oscar reflects on how perspectives on war evolve over time. He urges caution against jumping into the hype, especially as Christians. People on every side are made in the image of God. War isn't something to relish. Mark agrees that war is never ideal, but believes it can be justified in certain cases. He points to Scripture and historical examples, including David and Nehemiah, as men who carried weapons while remaining faithful to God. He notes that sometimes war is necessary to establish peace and protect the innocent.The conversation explores the difference between civil and governmental responsibilities, along with the historic Christian approach to violence. The early church leaned toward pacifism, yet history shows that wasn't a universal stance. Oscar introduces just war theory, grounded in principles like self-defense, proportional response, and the avoidance of cruelty. Just war never glorifies violence—it permits it under strict moral limitations.Would a preemptive strike against a hostile nation be justified if credible threats were discovered? Mark believes that standing against tyranny can be an act of love toward one's neighbor. Oscar, however, questions whether such actions always align with just war principles. He points to past U.S. actions—like the tragic downing of a civilian plane—as reminders of how quickly moral clarity can blur. E.Z. underscores the danger of biased media by comparing contradictory headlines from CNN and Fox News, reminding listeners to seek truth from multiple sources. Ray shares how he deliberately checks both conservative and liberal news sources to challenge his own assumptions. Oscar shifts the conversation to the spiritual aspect of war—reminding listeners that violence is a consequence of sin. Defensive war may sometimes be necessary, but it must always be a last resort. Believers are called to be peacemakers because God made peace with them. Mark closes with a powerful story of the Christmas Day truce in World War I. For a brief moment, enemies laid down their weapons in recognition of something greater than the battle. The guys challenge listeners to do the same—raising hands in prayer instead of fists in anger. Scripture urges believers to love peace and pursue it. Before taking sides, one must ask: is there a heart that grieves the loss of life, or one that revels in destruction?Send us a textThanks for listening!
