Europe and the US are increasingly having differing approaches to everything from free trade to free speech to combatting disinformation to defence to the role of the judiciary. What does that mean for Global Order? Or rather – in our mad mad mad mad world – what does this mean for the extent of Global Disorder?    In this episode, hosts Alexandra Hall Hall and Jason Pack are reunited in person in DC. Jason talks of his misadventures on Capitol Hill – and relates anecdotes he has picked up about the DOGE sledgehammer, Republicans bullying Canadians, and the post-apocalyptic feeling of the place. Jason and Alex anchor the episode around the divergence btw the US and Europe on issues of: Democracy, Misinformation, Corruption and Fraud; National Security/Foreign Policy; and Economy/Tariffs.    They delve into the way the political climate ‘feels' in the US under Trump's administration, and the differences in judicial accountability of major political figures between the US and Europe – looking at the Le Pen case in particular. Jason expresses his mad admiration of France and Sweden.    Plus: could civil disobedience grow in the US? Are Trump's policies being decided by non-experts who launder Russian misinformation like Laura Loomer – a new Tiktok influencer Rasputin? And can Kier Starmer be bold enough to help us Order the Disorder? And what can Sir Keir learn from Canada's Mark Carney who seems naturally gifted at standing up to Trump.

Edition No118 | 27-03-2025 - Surkov is a useful path to understanding the perverse and contradictory heart of contemporary Russia. Exploring a recent interview Vladislav Surkov conducted with L'Express reveals a secretive, complicated and controversial man. He is known as Putin's Rasputin, the Grey Cardinal of the Kremlin or the Puppet Master. Sourkov is the shadowy adviser who inspired novelist Giuliano da Empoli to write The Wizard of the Kremlin. He can be considered the 'architect' of the Russian political system but who has distanced himself from the man he served for two decades, Vladimir Putin. No one knows what Sourkov is doing today. In the L'Express interview he avoided the question. 1. He is one of the architects of the post-truth worldLong before Donald Trump weaponized the term ‘fake news', Surkov was honing his art. Today, Moscow is using Surkov's techniques to sow political confusion in democracies throughout the western world. A former associate said: “That's a fashion created and nourished by Surkov: this flavour of post-modernism. Nothing is true. There is no truth. There are alternative truths.”2. He rose from nowhere to become the power behind the throne in Putin's RussiaHe invented 'Sovereign Democracy', a system in which the illusion of democratic choice only had one outcome: the continuation of Putin's rule. One former colleague said of him: Vladimir Putin owes much of his success to Surkov's machinations.“At the ends of his fingers he controlled the threads of so many political structures. Those structures were so complicated that only Surkov knew where everything was: the opposition, the political parties, MPs, the governors, the creation or closing of political movements or NGOs, the church, the media, civil society...” ----------LINKS:https://www.lexpress.fr/monde/europe/exclusive-vladislav-sourkov-the-kremlins-wizard-russia-will-expand-in-all-directions-as-far-as-god-WWIE5OJMPVHJ5KTTAHNLE4WPME/?cmp_redirect?cmp_redirect=truehttps://www.ft.com/content/1324acbb-f475-47ab-a914-4a96a9d14bachttps://www.goodreads.com/book/show/39342784-almost-zero----------Easter Pysanky: Silicon Curtain - https://car4ukraine.com/campaigns/easter-pysanky-silicon-curtainCar for Ukraine has joined forces with a group of influencers, creators, and news observers during this special Easter season.

This week, we welcome master storyteller, podcaster, and comedian Dan Cummins, creator of the hit shows Timesuck and Scared to Death. Known for his deep dives into historical mysteries and the supernatural, Dan brings scholarly research paired with sharp wit. We've long admired the quality and depth of his work, which often parallels our own. Our conversation spans his paranormal encounters, the eerie legend of Rasputin, and a bizarre experience he had that mirrors one of Scott's — with coincidences too strange to ignore. We'll also explore Dan's unique path into podcasting, his prolific creative output, and his passion for the unexplained. Plus, Scott shares a story from his recent visit to the Rhine Institute in Durham, where he learned about cutting-edge research into human bioluminescence. Visit our website for a lot more information on this episode.

The Middleman is an epic drama of whistleblowers, murder, thrills, and legal combat—torn out of today's headlines.Nicholas “Deke” Deketomis and his law firm take on America's Big Pharma when Deke's college pal, Matt Redmond, presents him with a case of possible fraud involving EirePharma, the Redmond family business and a powerful Pharmacy Benefit Manager (PBM). PBMs serve as the “middlemen” between drug manufacturers and insurance companies, working in cryptic ways to determine not only the cost of drugs but also placing them on insurers' preferred formularies. EirePharma was recently taken over by the charismatic CEO, Connor Devlin, who has a Rasputin-like influence over Matt's cousin, Amy, the company's current president. Devlin may be utilizing racketeering practices—and perhaps murder—to raise the prices of insulin and other drugs for his own profit and to the detriment of consumers.Amy, who at first was in love with Devlin, decides—at great peril—to become her company's whistleblower and provide evidence to Deke and his team. When key witnesses and even Redmond family members meet mysterious and violent deaths, Amy finds herself a pawn caught in the center of a frightening and deadly game of wills between a formidable gangster, who in the eyes of the public is a respected businessman, and a law firm that is determined to investigate and uncover the Middleman's crimes.In the tradition of Suspicious Activity and Inhuman Trafficking, Mike Papantonio takes Deke and his cohorts on a new and different kind of legal gamble in The Middleman, which is chock full of the action and thrills for which he is known.Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/houseofmysteryradio.

Michael Malloy—also known as Mike the Durable—is the closest thing history has to a real-life Rasputin. In 1930s New York, a group of small-time crooks hatched the dumbest insurance scam of all time: take out a life insurance policy on a local drunk and kill him for the payout. Simple, right? Except Malloy had the constitution of a cockroach. Poisoned drinks? He asked for another round. Antifreeze? Tasted just fine. Rotten oysters marinated in wood alcohol? Delicious. Even running him over with a taxi twice wasn't enough. In this episode of The Lesser Known People Podcast, we break down the hilariously stupid series of attempts to take Malloy out, the absurd perseverance of one very drunk man, and the ultimate downfall of the criminal "masterminds" behind the plot. If you love true crime, dark comedy, and stories so ridiculous they sound fake, this one's for you.

Is he a co-president? An adviser? A modern-day Rasputin? Elon Musk's role may be undefined, but the Monitor's Simon Montlake looks at how his influence and impact seem to be growing by the day. Also: today's stories, including the German "firewall" meant to keep far-right the Alternative for Germany party out of power, a justice reporter talks about the busiest beat in news, and how “Severance,” the Apple TV+ show about workplace drudgery, may be the greatest exploration of work-life imbalance ever filmed. Join the Monitor's Mark Sappenfield for today's news.

"There ain't nothing in them woods except death!" That's the tagline for writer Renfield Rasputin's debut slasher film, Butchers Bluff, co-written with William Instone.

Grigori Rasputin: a man so strange, so wild, he's practically a legend. From his hypnotic eyes to his scandalous escapades, this self-proclaimed holy man wormed his way into Russia's royal palace and their darkest secrets. Was he a mystic healer, a manipulative madman, or just history's most eccentric party crasher? Join Blaire and Halley as they unravel the bizarre life of Rasputin—a man too weird to live, but too wild to die easily.

It couldn't be truer that people pay attention to who the President, King, or Prime Minister is hanging out with.  It would make sense that the people closest to the person in charge would have at least a voice in the ear of the person calling the shots.  We have an interesting situation going on now, but imagine if the person closest to the person in charge of an empire was a self-proclaimed mystic and faith healer?   What would it look like with Ms. Cleo in the ear of George W. during the tough days following 9/11?  Enter the tale of Rasputin.  Grigori Rasputin came from the remote area of Siberia to become one of the major influences of the Russian Empire.  His rise to prominence was carved by the path of religion and many thought he had healing powers, including the King and Queen.  But did Rasputin live the holy life he preached about?  What was his relationship with the King's children really like?  If he wasn't funny, and not good looking at all, how did he pull so much tail?  We'll dive into all this and more in the Rasputin episode of AHC Podcast.       Intro Music Credit: TIK TOK [No Copyright Sound] Trap Beat [Hip Hop, Rap, Instrumental] [ FREE USE MUSIC ] - Deceiver https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-dJC5lLHnXU&t=0s https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/         Citations: Smith, D.

After the infamous Kansas City Massacre, reports of Frank Nash's ghost haunting Union Station keep the memory of his violent end alive.Darkness Syndicate members get the ad-free version. https://weirddarkness.com/syndicateInfo on the next LIVE SCREAM event. https://weirddarkness.com/LiveScreamInfo on the next WEIRDO WATCH PARTY event. https://weirddarkness.com/TVIN THIS EPISODE: One of paranormal history's most bizarre, worldwide, phenomena, the Men In Black, traces its origin directly back to one man, and his name was Albert. (The Albert K. Bender Story) *** Daryl Collins' encounters demonstrate the sheer level of weirdness that surrounds the UFO phenomenon. (Alien Abductions and High Strangeness) *** A young girl sees an odd cube shape floating in her back yard among the trees. Was it extraterrestrial, paranormal, or just the wild imagination of a child? (Floating Multi-Color Box) *** What began as a joke to tease his sister, became all too real for the boy. (Ouija) *** Legend has it that a man murdered his wife and young daughter, before committing suicide. Has this caused the Banff Springs Hotel to become haunted? (Room 873) *** Frank Nash was not only an infamous outlaw, but he could escape just about any prison – even the prison of his own coffin after being dead and buried. (The Kansas City Massacre) *** Due to a murderous plot, 11-year old Terry Jo Duperrault spent 84 grueling hours alone at sea until she was rescued. (Orphaned At Sea) *** Moving into your own place alone for the first time is often an exciting moment in a young adult's life – but it can also be a bit nerve-racking. But then, it probably doesn't help if you move into a place that is haunted. (My Closet Door) *** The true story of Rasputin is full of both truths and lies. Was he a controversial mystic with healing powers, or an evil or misunderstood man? Maybe he was a little of both. (Rasputin) *** The Lake Club in Springfield, Illinois had its heyday in 1940s and 50s – and not even a lingering ghost could stop the parties.

Dr. John Gartner and Dr. Harry Segal explore the anxiety surrounding what's to come when Donald Trump takes office on January 20. Journalist and biographer Laurie Winer returns with her line on what this moment means politically and historically.

Reflecting on the launch of our show last year, John and Harry renew their commitment to calling out Donald Trump's cognitive decline and severe personality disorders. We'll also continue to assess MAGA's sweeping effects on democracy, the press, and the emotional health of America's public. The Dr.'s discuss how Trump might be outsourcing decision-making to people like Elon Musk, who many consider a modern-day Rasputin. And they push back against the press for normalizing and downplaying the pair's dangerous behavior.  Harry offers a cautious optimism for the year ahead, pointing out the sheer logistical and financial roadblocks that stand in the way of Trump's most extreme ideas, like mass deportations. While John and our guest Laurie Weiner warn us against the terrible dangers of complacency.  Laurie shares eerie parallels with Germany's historic descent into fascism and urges vigilance against incremental normalization of Donald's extreme authoritarian behaviors. Our hosts also call upon our listeners to remain steadfast, by nurturing mental well-being and personal connections amid the chaos. We encourage folks to stay engaged and stay informed, because our collective awareness and actions are crucial for navigating the storm ahead.  Be sure to join us next time as we continue to dissect the psychological and political challenges of this new era, like no one else can.

On this episode of the pod, Liz Galalis (The Joel McHale Show, Fence Sitter) drops in to talk about Rasputin, wizards, pizza, and more. Then she taps out and my brother drops in to chat about Brokeback Mountain, ghosts, rom-coms and more.

For years we've discussed dropping the Side Probe from the archives where we met a penis in a jar and now the time has come... For the ears of all, here is that historic episode where we probe Rasputin. Oh my, there is a lot to get through here and we brought it all to you in a single extended episode. The rumours say that Rasputin was a man of paranormal abilities but was he really? We establish that the Tsar or Czar, Nicolas (the Second) Romanov, had a regal moustache before diving straight in to Rasputin's origin story. What is it about Rasputin's eyes? Was Nickelodeon around in the early 1900's? Or had the miracle healing powers of Rugrats plasters not been invented yet? Did you know that Rasputin actually changed his name? You'll never believe what to as it's such a big departure from Rasputin but why did he do it? Unfortunately, eventually, Rasputin would one day discover that with great power comes great responsibility. Once he did, where did Rasputin's dick supposedly end up? All that and more on this episode from the archives.

We're defending the historically vilified Rasputin in his quest to deal with an entitled imposter. Plus we discuss how the Russian revolution was a little more serious than "a spark of unhappiness".

In 2004 Guillermo Del Toro brought us the cinematic introduction of Hellboy, a demonic entity summonded from hell but who fights for the forces of good. Played pitch perfectly by Rob Pearlman and joined by the likes of Doug Jones as Abe Sapien and Selma Blair as Liz Sherman the first movie deals with stopping the Nazi's (lead by Rasputin) from opening a portal into another dimension to bring forth Ogdru Jahad, a cthulhu like squid monster. All in all, pretty good. Pretty good we reckon.
