Cue the rewind sound because this episode takes us straight into the vault of unfiltered memories, irrational fears, intrusive thoughts, and one very real phobia that lives rent-free in Megan's brain.   In this laugh-out-loud flashback episode of Got HER Back, the girls spiral (in the best way) through childhood trauma, snake encounters, rat-infested patios, sensory issues, anxiety spirals, and the deeply serious topic of white condiments.   This episode is raw, ridiculous, and relatable in a way only Got HER Back can deliver because sometimes healing looks like laughing until you cry and sometimes it looks like saying no to white stuff forever.   You've got her back. And we've got yours.   Chapters: 00:00 Welcome Back + Life Updates 01:10 Selling a House with Kids, Dogs, and Trauma 02:05 Snake Encounters and Childhood Fears 05:40 Anxiety, Intrusive Thoughts, and Phobias 07:45 Introducing the White Stuff Phobia 09:30 Mayonnaise, Sour Cream, and Gag Reflexes 12:20 Dating, Food Aversions, and Embarrassing Moments 14:50 The Calgary Chicken Sandwich Incident 17:30 Rats on a Fancy Hotel Patio 20:30 Food Texture Issues and Sensory Triggers 22:45 High School Trauma and Bullying Flashback 25:30 Parenting, Rollercoasters, and Aging Bodies 28:15 Sensory Issues, Bare Feet, and Clean Floors 30:40 Robot Vacuums and Adulting Wins 33:00 Wrapping Up and Saying NO to White Stuff

Here's a cosmic riddle for you: A blind man and a mod walk into a bar…. Is it a coffee bar, with a make-shift stage on a corner platform, attended by the beatnik intelligentsia?, or is it a sweaty discotheque packed with beautiful people unabashedly swinging their hips?   It's definitely a transmogrifying chamber where the musical output of a sharecropper or convict from the work farm can be turned into sexy jazzbo stylings through the sleight of hand of some nifty cultural appropriation and syncopated finesse. There are many manifestations of the “blues” and here we have two vastly different - practically unrecognizable from each other - masters - Sleepy John Estes (1899-1977), and Georgie Fame (born 1943) - existing across the pond, across generations, and across many layers of lived experience, but bonded by their singular love of this primitive music that started in the Mississippi delta, and went on to conquer the world. SLEEPY JOHN ESTESEverybody thought that Sleepy John Estes was dead because Big Bill Broonzy said so. Blind in one eye, folks called him “sleepy” because of a low blood pressure disorder, or some believed he had narcolepsy. He started recording in the 20's with Hammie Nixon on harp, made some records, went basically “radio silent” throughout the 40s and 50s until Sam Charters rediscovered him in 1962, blind and frail, and kick-started his late in life fame. “Rats in my Kitchen” was recorded at Sun Studios in 1952, but it wasn't until 10 years later that his recording career gained traction, fueled by those he was influencing across the pond, like Robert Plant of Led Zeppelin. Sleepy John always wrote about his life, and this record has an almost journalistic authenticity. GEORGIE FAMEWhat can one say about Georgie Fame? The man has style for days, and it was thus from the very beginning - in shark skin suits, tab collars, and skinny ties. Born in 1943 as Clive Powell, Georgie Fame and his Blue Flames made their bones swinging his Hammond organ in the mod clubs of the early 60s, and had big commercial hits with Yeh Yeh, and The Ballad of Bonnie and Clyde. Recently, he's name checked all over the place, and has done notable collaborations with Van Morrison and others. In Parchman Farm you can hear the undeniable influence of the coolest of the cool white blues men, Mose Allison, and the organ of Booker T and the MGs' Green Onions - a persuasive combination. I'm sure that Bukka White, who wrote this bottle neck Delta blues shouter in 1940 had no inkling that his experience in the Mississippi State Pen would become such a sexy signature tune. You never can tell….

A tribute to all the Flat Earthers, 1st Amendment Auditors, Sovereign Citizens and other "colorful characters" who live and breathe on social media!

Rats are disorder made flesh.

As workers continue preparing Marsh Farm on King Charles's Sandringham estate for Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor's impending relocation, a pest control van from Command Pest Control was recently spotted at the property — a sign that staff are dealing with the kinds of rodents and other critters that often invade old country homes, especially in winter when rats and mice seek warmth indoors. Command Pest Control, which holds a Royal Warrant, specializes in removing unwanted pests like rats, mice, squirrels, and wasp nests, and sightings of the vehicle underscore the basic, unglamorous work involved in readying the modest five-bedroom farmhouse for the disgraced royal's arrival.The moment is rich with unintended symbolism: as a man once enveloped in royal privilege is being moved into a far humbler estate residence, pest controllers are literally hunting rats at the place he's set to occupy. That juxtaposition has not been lost on observers, who note the irony of a two-legged “rat” of scandal and controversy — Andrew, whose reputation has been shredded by his links to Jeffrey Epstein — being housed among four-legged rats, the kind property managers are actively trying to evict. It's a vivid, almost satirical image of how drastically his circumstances have changed, from Windsor grandeur to rural pest preparation.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Ratcatcher pest firm is spotted outside Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor's new Sandringham home - while former prince rides horse near Royal Lodge as he prepares to move out | Daily Mail Online

Could a bizarre medical emergency actually be real? Did NASA really intercept a chilling message from deep space? And why are people convinced rats are on crack in Houston?

Weekly Spooky horror podcast brings you a high-seas survival horror nightmare for our Best of 2025 series—equal parts ghost ship, creature feature, and “you're trapped and nobody is coming.”  Chance and Luka are stranded after a shipwreck—clinging to a container in open water while the ocean churns around them. But rescue doesn't arrive… and when a drifting vessel appears out of the fog, it feels like a miracle. A derelict ocean liner. A ghost ship. A place to rest, warm up, and wait it out. Except the ship isn't empty. The corridors are wrong. The cabins are shredded. The galley has been ransacked down to the metal. And the scraping in the walls isn't the sea—it's something living, swarming, and hungry. What starts as a lucky break turns into a full-blown claustrophobic horror story about bad choices, worse timing, and the terrifying moment you realize the lifeboat might not be yours anymore.If you love ghost ship horror, monster infestations, ocean survival stories, and relentless “can't escape” tension, this one is a year-round must-listen—especially with headphones on in a dark room.Ship of the Cannibal Rats — by David O'Hanlon

professorjrod@gmail.comIn this episode of Technology Tap: CompTIA Study Guide, we explore how proactive detection surpasses reactive troubleshooting in cybersecurity. For those preparing for their CompTIA exam, understanding the subtle clues and quiet anomalies attackers leave behind is essential for developing strong IT skills and excelling in tech exam prep. We dive deep into the critical indicators that help you detect security compromises early, providing practical knowledge essential for your technology education and IT certification journey. Join us as we equip you with expert insights to sharpen your detection abilities and enhance your competence in protecting systems effectively.We walk through the behaviors that matter: viruses that hitch a ride on clicks, worms that paint the network with unexplained traffic, and fileless attacks that live in memory and borrow admin tools like PowerShell and scheduled tasks. You'll learn how to spot spyware by the aftermath of credential misuse, recognize RATs and backdoors by their steady beaconing to unknown IPs, and use contradictions—like tools disagreeing about running processes—as a signal for rootkits. We also draw a sharp line between ransomware's loud chaos and cryptojacking's quiet drain on your CPU and fan.Zooming out, we map network and application signals: certificate warnings and duplicate MACs that hint at man-in-the-middle, DNS mismatches that suggest cache poisoning, and log patterns that betray SQL injection, replay abuse, or directory traversal. Along the way, we talk about building Security+ instincts through scaffolding—A+ for OS and hardware intuition, Network+ for protocol fluency, and Security+ for attacker behavior—so indicators make sense the moment you see them.If you want a sharper eye for subtle threats and a stronger shot at your Security+ exam, this guide will train your attention on the tells adversaries can't fully hide. Subscribe, share with a teammate who handles triage, and leave a review with your favorite indicator to watch—we'll feature the best ones in a future show.Support the showArt By Sarah/DesmondMusic by Joakim KarudLittle chacha ProductionsJuan Rodriguez can be reached atTikTok @ProfessorJrodProfessorJRod@gmail.com@Prof_JRodInstagram ProfessorJRod

Creating strong passwords is a modern headache. Simple ones are easy to hack. Complex ones are hard to remember. And using the same password everywhere is just asking for trouble. This episode begins with a smarter, practical strategy for creating passwords that are both secure and memorable. Source: Sid Kirchheimer, author of Scam-Proof Your Life (https://amzn.to/3SeWhA5) Men and women differ in ways that go far beyond the obvious — and some of the most fascinating differences rarely get discussed. From how men and women hear sound differently, to why women tend to live longer, to how hormones influence behavior in surprisingly specific ways, these differences are deeply rooted in biology and evolution. Cat Bohannon joins me to explain what science really shows. She holds a Ph.D. from Columbia University and is author of Eve: How the Female Body Drove 200 Million Years of Human Evolution (https://amzn.to/3SgBUlO). Rats, insects, bees, deer, spiders — the world is full of creatures we label as “pests.” But what actually makes an animal a pest? And why do humans respond to some species with fear, anger, or extermination, while others get sympathy or protection? Bethany Brookshire explains how humans often create pests through our own behavior, and what our reactions reveal about us. She's an award-winning science writer and author of Pests: How Humans Create Animal Villains (https://amzn.to/3vzlpZt) And finally, most drivers never adjust their car's headrest — or even know how it should be positioned. In a crash, that small oversight can make a big difference.

We jet-set from Beverly Hills to Palm Beach with special guest Taja Abitbol—entrepreneur, wellness visionary, and star of Netflix's hot new reality series Members Only: Palm Beach. Taja, known for her luxury wellness brand Taja Drip, shares her journey from her hippie-named, Moroccan-Tunisian roots to pioneering anti-aging treatments in Miami's Faena Hotel. No booze, no Tylenol, just peptides, NAD, glutathione, and a glowy lifestyle that keeps people guessing her age (she looks 28, but that's not the number!). Taja breaks down how NAD slows aging, and teases her soon-to-launch ingestible wellness line—no gummies, just potent, high-dose liquid formulas. We share hilarious IV therapy memories from OC Fashion Week, complete with cleavage-forward nurses and jokes about IV swapping gone wild, as we bond over clean living, hot hair (shoutout to Paris in Beverly Hills), and spiritual connection, before diving into the real secret to longevity: love, joy, and meaningful relationships. The conversation turns intimate as we all reflect on our long-term relationships (Taja's been with her Capricorn partner for 15 years!), the sacredness of loyalty, and not forgiving people who knew exactly what they were doing. Patrik drops wisdom about dialing numbers with intention and calling people spiritually, while Pol' brings his signature warmth and Saint Peter Paul origin story full of Armenian heritage and holiday birthday charm. She spills the tea on the show's glam cast, wild country club culture, and behind-the-scenes drama—think Palm Royale meets Housewives with fashion, philanthropy, and the occasional pineapple-shaped clue about swingers. The show's origin story? Manifested by Taja herself, passed on by a hairdresser, and guided by a psychic who predicted a producer switch. Fate works fast when you're fabulous.

THE RISE OF THE PARIS COMMUNE FOLLOWING THE SIEGE Colleague Sebastian Smee. By March 1871, following a winter of starvation where Parisians ate rats and zoo animals, the city's radical Republicans revolted against the provisional government. The radicals, frustrated by the government's failure to break the Prussian siege and the subsequent humiliating surrender terms, seized cannons and established the Commune. This new government aimed for localized, democratic control but was viewed by the national government, now retreated to Versailles under Adolphe Thiers, as an insurrection. The Commune was libertarian and progressive but faced immediate isolation. Having survived the Prussian siege, the Communards now found themselves besieged by French government forces, setting the stage for a brutal civil conflict where the "brother fought brother" narrative of the 19th century would reach a violent climax.

Toilet rats. Yes, you read that right. Western Washington health officials are warning residents that flooding could send sewer rats swimming up into your toilet bowl—because apparently, 2025 wasn't weird enough already. This is the same public health department that brought you "booty bump kits," so you know we're in good hands. We break down their official advice: stay calm (good luck with that), close the lid, flush repeatedly, and—wait for it—squirt Dawn dish soap into the toilet to make the rat slide back down. Because nothing says "government efficiency" like telling taxpayers to lube up their toilets and hope for the best. What happened to actual infrastructure maintenance? How about fixing those cracked sewer pipes before Norway rats start doing the backstroke through our plumbing? Is your first instinct really going to be "grab the Dawn" when you lift that toilet lid? Drop a comment if you've had a rat visitor—and whether the dish soap trick actually worked. Don't forget to subscribe for more stories that make you question everything.

This week on Hysteria 51, we're ping-ponging between “medical science is incredible” and “we are absolutely doomed (pun intended).”First up: researchers in Japan isolated a gut bacterium from Japanese tree frogs that, in a preclinical mouse model, showed shockingly strong anti-tumor results against colorectal cancer—the kind of headline that makes you whisper, “Nature… what else you hiding in there?” (Answer: apparently a lot.)Then we pivot to the most important scientific breakthrough since fire: rats trained to play DOOM… and now they've learned how to shoot demons using a custom lever setup. Yes, really. Somewhere a lab coat just gained a Metallica patch.It's a weird news buffet of frog-gut cancer research, DOOM-playing rodents, and the comforting reminder that the future is equal parts miracle and chaos.Links & Resources

On the occasions when we humans go out of our way to help another person who is in distress, we are acting out our biological inheritance. And if we don't help someone in trouble, that's because we've had to actually actively suppress what is natural for us to do. That was the finding of the neurologist Peggy Mason. whom we interviewed in Shape of the World's second season. We've re-released that episode because that particular finding of Peggy's and the others she spoke about remain incredibly relevant and still come across as a bit shocking.  As a child, Peggy Mason was a biology prodigy. By the age of nine, she was assisting the zoologist Dr. Charles Handley in teaching taxidermy at the Smithsonian. Today, as a neurobiologist, Peggy still works with mammals, but now she's studying whether they experience empathy and act to help one another. Peggy was studying the subject of pain modulation until a post-doctoral student at the University of Chicago, Inbal Ben-Ami Bartal, asked if she'd be interested in expanding her work to collaborate on a project about empathy. “I went over to see her that same day,” says Peggy, and the upshot was the discovery that, like humans, rats have an aversion to witnessing the distress of others and a strong motivation to help someone else who's suffering. In addition to leading the research laboratory at the University of Chicago, Peggy is a committed teacher of neurobiology, teaching both formally (at the University) and informally, through her blog and a popular free, online course. “It's our biological mammalian inheritance to help. It's not helping that's the weird thing.” – Dr. Peggy Mason is a professor of neurobiology at the University of Chicago. Want to Learn More, See More, Know More? You'll love this video from Nova that shows one rat deliberately setting free another rat that's trapped. Later, the rat is confronted with the question of which to do first: save some rat it had never even met before, or wolf down the chocolate Peggy offered? Also, here's the article in Science magazine. How can I take a class with Peggy? On Coursera, take “Understanding the Brain: The Neurobiology of Every Day Life,” a free course taught by Peggy. You can also gain more insights from Peggy by subscribing to her blog, which is fascinating and far-reaching in its subject matter. Her most recent post has the full script of her “Aims of Education” address, a prestigious speech given to incoming students. Rats from Dr. Mason and Dr. Bartal’s trapped-rat empathy experiment. Amazingly, the black-and-white rat will venture into the “danger zone” of the arena to help the trapped rat. Photograph of Dr. Mason and Dr. Bartal together. Rat-nibbled Hershey's kisses. Electrophysiological recordings of a rat, illustrating how different parts of a rat's body (the right forepaw, the left hindpaw, etc.) respond to certain stimuli.

Rats off to ya, What A Cartoon listeners! This month, we're returning to picturesque Jefferton to discuss an Adult Swim holiday classic that's filled our cups with yuletide brine for more than two decades. It's been over six years since we last checked in on Tom Goes to the Mayor, and this Christmas season is the perfect opportunity to look into yet another misguided entrepreneurial effort from the one and only Tom Peters. So put on your decorative wristlets and blast your favorite ZaZu album as we explore this yuletide tale of capitalism run amok.
