Karen Read made John O'Keefe's and his niece and nephew's trip to Aruba a living hell. She also did her best to make the sisters Etta & Laura Sullivan's trip as unpleasant as possible. The Commonwealth seemed to push the narrative that Karen Read's uncontrollable jealously of other women was the issue that made the vacation so miserable for everyone. In reality, Karen Read's behavior in Aruba can only be put in context by looking at her behavior on Christmas in 2021.Get access to exclusive content & support the podcast by becoming a Patron today! https://patreon.com/robertaglasstruecrimereportThrow a tip in the tip jar! https://buymeacoffee.com/robertaglassSupport Roberta by sending a donation via Venmo. https://venmo.com/robertaglassBecome a channnel member for custom Emojis, first looks and exclusive streams here: https://youtube.com/@robertaglass/joinThank you Patrons!Carol Mumumeci, Therese Tunks, JC, Lizzy D, Elizabeth Drake, Texas Mimi, Barb, Deborah Shults, Debra Ratliff, Stephanie Lamberson, Maryellen Sudol, Mona, Karen Pacini, Jen Buell, Marie Horton, ER, Rosie Grace, B.

October 19, 1814. An eager audience files into the Holliday Street Theater in Baltimore, about to see a debut performance, described as a “much-admired new song.” The composer of this song, Francis Scott Key, had written the lyrics during a recent battle in Baltimore, trapped on a British ship as he watched the rockets red glare from afar. Key wasn't a professional songwriter – a prominent lawyer in Washington D.C., he specialized in cases related to slavery, both defending enslaved people and slave catchers. But his real legacy became this song, entitled “The Star-Spangled Banner.” How did Key come to watch the Battle of Baltimore play out from the deck of an enemy ship? And how did his relationship with race and slavery shape the song we now call our national anthem? Special thanks to authors Marc Leepson and Tim Grove for sharing their voices and expertise for this episode. ** This episode originally aired October 19, 2020. -- Get in touch: historythisweekpodcast@history.com  Follow on Instagram: @historythisweek Follow on Facebook: ⁠HISTORY This Week Podcast⁠ To stay updated: http://historythisweekpodcast.com To learn more about listener data and our privacy practices visit: https://www.audacyinc.com/privacy-policy Learn more about your ad choices.

When 14-year-old Celeste Rivas was found dead in the trunk of a Tesla registered to singer d4vd, the public wanted answers. Fast. But weeks later, there's still no cause of death. No suspect. No charges. And in that silence, the noise has taken over. In this longform breakdown, we dig into how the lack of official updates has created a vacuum—one where every lyric, property transfer, tattoo, and prank 911 call gets inflated to “evidence.” From the swatting call to the online rumor mill, we're not just talking about the case—we're talking about how the public is twisting it. Is the swatting call connected? Why hasn't anyone been arrested? And why do people think a matching tattoo is enough to prove a relationship? This episode isn't about wild theories. It's about how those theories form—when law enforcement goes quiet, when the internet gets restless, and when tragedy becomes content. We unpack what actually matters in the investigation: forensic timelines, digital records, verified access, and most importantly—cause and manner of death. Because until that autopsy report drops, everything else is just noise.

He draws parallels between the two groups, showcasing their similarities in tactics and the shared experience of being outnumbered in a violent world.Notable Assassination Attempts:Listeners will be enthralled by recounts of failed assassination attempts, including the botched attack on Prince Edward, which underscores the human side of these historical figures and their often chaotic methods. Steve's anecdotes bring to life the drama and unpredictability of medieval politics.The Legacy of the Assassins and Templars:As the discussion unfolds, Steve reflects on the enduring legacy of both groups and their impact on contemporary perceptions of loyalty, commitment, and the nature of power.

Today's Topics: 1) Gospel - Matthew 23:27-32 - Jesus said, "Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, you hypocrites. You are like whitewashed tombs, which appear beautiful on the outside, but inside are full of dead men's bones and every kind of filth. Even so, on the outside you appear righteous, but inside you are filled with hypocrisy and evildoing. "Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, you hypocrites. You build the tombs of the prophets and adorn the memorials of the righteous, and you say, 'If we had lived in the days of our ancestors, we would not have joined them in shedding the prophets' blood.' Thus you bear witness against yourselves that you are the children of those who murdered the prophets; now fill up what your ancestors measured out!" Memorial of Saint Monica Saint Monica, pray for us! Bishop Sheen quote of the day 2, 3, 4) Terry and Jesse discuss today's Minneapolis shooting tragedy by a so-called "transgeder" woman, killing two children at Mass and wounding many others

Every generation loves to complain about the next one—lazy, entitled, wasting money on gadgets and brunch. But here's the truth: young adults today aren't just making different choices—they're playing a completely different financial game. In 1970, over half of 30-year-olds in America were married and owned a home. Today? Less than 15%. And it's not because everyone suddenly decided marriage and mortgages were overrated. It's the fallout from decades of policy decisions, wage stagnation, and skyrocketing costs that have made the old “American Dream” a whole lot harder to reach. In this episode, we're pulling back the curtain on the real reasons why hitting financial milestones looks different now, and why “just work harder” is the worst advice you can give someone trying to buy a home in today's economy. You'll hear: The shocking drop in homeownership rates for 30-year-olds since the 1970s How wages, housing prices, and student debt have completely shifted the financial landscape Why avocado toast is not the problem (and what actually is) How generational misunderstanding keeps us from creating solutions that work Practical ways both older and younger generations can bridge the gap It's time to stop blaming brunch and start looking at the real math.

In this episode, I sit down with Paul Hutchinson —entrepreneur, investor, undercover operative, and executive producer of Sound of Freedom — to uncover the real stories behind the film and the mindset shift that led him from building a $20B fund to rescuing over 7,000 trafficked children across the globe. This isn't just a conversation about child trafficking. It's about transformation; how the skills of persuasion, tonality, and emotional intelligence can be used not just to sell, but to liberate. Paul reveals how his ability to influence in high-stakes negotiations saved lives and how changing the man in the mirror is what really changes the world. If you're a sales professional, entrepreneur, or leader who wants to do more with your influence than just close deals, this episode will challenge and inspire you on a whole new level.   Chapters: (00:00) Introduction (03:14) Why a Billionaire Risks His Life to Save Kids (08:25) The Real Story Behind Sound of Freedom (14:31) The Shocking Truth About Human Traffickers (19:19) How Persuasion Saved Dozens of Lives (26:05) The Negotiation That Led to 124 Children Being Rescued (33:08) The Sound of Freedom: What Paul Heard That Changed Everything (37:19) From Ego to Healing: The Inner Work Behind the Mission (42:18) Plant Medicine, God, and Rebuilding the Man in the Mirror (47:48) The Power of Influence: Persuasion Beyond Sales (51:02) Transparency, Trust, and What Most Salespeople Get Wrong (54:05) Where to Find the Book and Support the Mission   Get The Sound of Freedom Book: ⁠https://soundoffreedombook.com⁠ Connect With Paul Hutchinson Instagram:⁠ https://www.instagram.com/liberating.humanity⁠ YouTube: ⁨⁠https://youtube.com/@Liberatinghumanity⁩ ⁠

Joanna Coles sits down with Michael Wolff, the best-selling biographer of Donald Trump who has become his definitive chronicler. Wolff reveals Trump's the real reason for the president's pick-me-energy hair. He tells how Trump has been making an extraordinary racially charged observation to West Wing visitors about modern college students—and Wolff reacts to Trump going after him for saying that the war on Harvard was a revenge attack because 18-year-old Donald didn't get in. Wolff reveals what's really being said inside the president's inner circle about the Lucifer-like fall of Elon Musk and explains what it really means about the prospects for anyone who put themselves in Trump's orbit. And he resurfaces Stormy Daniels' very telling anecdote about who blew up Trump's phone when the two were engaged in their tryst—which of course, Trump still denies. Hosted on Acast.
