One morning, Oliver Sipple went out for a walk. A couple hours later, to his own surprise, he saved the life of the President of the United States. In a story we reported back in 2017, we explain how in the days that followed, Sipple's split-second act of heroism turned into a rationale for making his personal life into political opportunity. What happens next makes us wonder what a moment, or a movement, or a whole society can demand of one person. And how much is too much? Through newly unearthed archival tape, we hear Sipple himself grapple with some of the most vexing topics of his day and ours - privacy, identity, the freedom of the press - not to mention the bonds of family and friendship.

Nick Reiner is being held without bail at Twin Towers Correctional Facility following his arrest in December 2025 in connection with the alleged killings of his parents, Rob and Michele Reiner, in their Brentwood home. He has pleaded not guilty. Reports now indicate he is allegedly planning a tell-all from inside the facility — one designed not to address the charges but reportedly to target his surviving family members.According to sources cited by Globe magazine, the reported book would name names and allegedly attempt to expose what Nick characterizes as family secrets. The legal implications of such a publication are significant. Any statements made by the defendant — in any format — could potentially be used by the prosecution. A tell-all that contradicts the defense's narrative or demonstrates calculated thinking could undermine an insanity defense strategy, which multiple observers have identified as the most likely approach given Nick's documented schizoaffective disorder diagnosis.The clinical picture complicates the legal analysis. Multiple sources describe Nick as delusional and almost childlike in custody, reportedly unable to process why he's incarcerated. Reports indicate he screams about his innocence at night. A medication change reportedly occurred approximately one month before the alleged killings. Whether the reported tell-all represents calculated retaliation or a manifestation of the underlying psychiatric condition is a question the defense will eventually have to address.His defense attorney has withdrawn from the case. Surviving siblings Jake and Romy have reportedly severed contact. Jake Reiner published a Substack essay describing his parents as guiding lights taken from him in the most violent way possible — a document that stands in stark opposition to what Nick reportedly intends to publish.Robin Dreeke applies FBI behavioral analysis to the question of whether someone presenting with Nick's reported symptoms could independently conceive and execute a publication strategy — or whether outside influence may be involved.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Hidden Killers With Tony Brueski | True Crime News & Commentary
The contrast at the center of the Reiner case right now is almost impossible to reconcile. Jake Reiner published a raw Substack essay about losing both parents — milestones stolen, a career Rob and Michele won't get to see, grief that doesn't quiet down. From inside Twin Towers Correctional Facility, his brother Nick is reportedly planning something very different: a tell-all designed to name names and cause maximum damage to the surviving family members who've walked away from him.According to sources cited by Globe magazine, Nick reportedly wants to expose what he calls family secrets and embarrass the people who spent years trying to help him. But multiple sources describe his mental state as delusional, almost childlike — reportedly unable to process why he's incarcerated despite allegedly knowing what he did. His schizoaffective disorder diagnosis, a reported medication change approximately a month before the alleged killings, and accounts of him reportedly screaming innocence at night raise a fundamental question: is the reported tell-all a calculated act of retaliation, or is it a symptom of the same condition that allegedly drove the events of that night?Rob and Michele Reiner were allegedly killed in their own home. According to prosecutors, Nick is responsible. He's pleaded not guilty and is held without bail. The defense attorney quit. Jake and Romy have reportedly severed contact.Robin Dreeke applies FBI behavioral analysis to the profile of someone who reportedly oscillates between childlike confusion and alleged strategic cruelty. The listener questions addressed in this conversation cut to the core of the case — medication changes before the alleged killings, whether an insanity defense can succeed under California law, and what it means when a family does everything available and still allegedly loses everything. The question of whether the reported tell-all originated with Nick — or someone with access to him inside the facility — remains unanswered.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

For decades, marketers have debated one question:How much frequency is enough?But what if the industry has been arguing about two completely different things the entire time?In Part 2 of this Sharp Cut series, Marc Binkley and Vassilis Douros revisit the reach vs frequency debate after a wave of listener feedback challenged, refined, and strengthened the original episode. What emerges is a far more nuanced framework built around one critical distinction: burst frequency vs drip frequency.Drawing on work from Byron Sharp, Les Binet, Hermann Ebbinghaus, Stu Carr, Dale Harrison, Paul Hindle, and real-world incrementality testing from industry practitioners, this episode breaks down:Why frequency is not one thingThe difference between burst and drip frequencyHow memory actually works in advertisingWhy brands quietly lose effectiveness when they go darkThe hidden risks of streaming frequency capsWhy low frequency can appear more effective than it really isThe three real jobs of frequency: building, refreshing, and activatingWhy impressions and average frequency often mislead marketersHow last-click attribution continues to distort decision makingThe planning mistakes quietly wasting media budgets todayThis episode reframes one of marketing's oldest debates through the lens of memory, incrementality, and effectiveness.Because the real question was never reach versus frequency.It was burst versus drip.Chapters00:00 - Introduction to Comfort Blankets in Advertising03:40 - Understanding Memory in Advertising08:05 - Building and Refreshing Memory Structures10:08 - The Impact of Streaming on Frequency13:50 - The Three Jobs of Advertising20:38 - Measurement Challenges in AdvertisingOriginal LinkedIn Post: https://www.linkedin.com/feed/update/urn:li:activity:7453434962604691457/Special thanks to all those who inspired this follow-up episode:Stu Carr, Dale Harrison, Paul Hindle and Dennis A.ResourcesBinet, L.

On this episode of HALO Talks, Pete Moore sits down with internationally renowned marketing expert John Dwyer, also known as JD, for a deep dive into proven direct response marketing strategies that deliver real ROI . . . no vague brand-building promises. Hailing from Australia and celebrated for his practical, results-oriented approach, Jack shares stories from his decades-long career, including how a simple contest formula brought hundreds of qualified leads to gyms at a fraction of the usual cost, and why creative incentives like vacation vouchers trump discounting your own services. With anecdotes spanning from licensing Disney characters to orchestrating a bank campaign featuring Jerry Seinfeld, Dwyer reveals the nuts and bolts of incentive-based marketing, the mindset shifts needed to outpace the competition, the power of persistent idea generation, and the importance of a strong call to action. Whether you're running a gym, leading a fitness franchise, or simply want to sharpen your marketing acumen, this episode is packed with insights and actionable takeaways from one of the industry's most persistent and inventive minds. On viral gym incentives, Jack says, "Instead of giving up the first month membership, which of course every gym does, they replace that by saying, join my fitness center and I will give you a free vacation to Disney World, New York, Orlando, call the hotspots, and we give these vacation vouchers to them for $50." Key themes discussed Direct response marketing vs. traditional advertising Incentive-based marketing to drive gym memberships Cost-effective lead generation strategies Using contests and giveaways for engagement Leveraging licensing and brand equity Importance of a strong call to action (CTA) Adapting marketing for small and medium businesses A Few Key Takeaways 1. Direct Response Marketing Over Traditional Branding: John emphasized a fundamental difference between his approach and that of traditional ad agencies: Instead of building brand love in hopes customers will eventually try the product, his strategy is to get people to try the product first so they fall in love with the brand later. Measurability and ROI are central, and "face on the side of a bus" advertising is dismissed for most businesses unless they're global giants like Coca-Cola or Nike (01:04). 2. Leveraging Incentives—"Happy Meal Toys" for Grown-Ups: A key to successful direct response marketing, especially in the fitness sector, is offering incentives unrelated to price discounting. Dwyer discusses "Happy Meal toy" strategies—low-cost incentives (e.g., vacation vouchers) with high-perceived value—that drive response and differentiate offers without eroding core business value (07:24). 3. Facebook Contests for Lead Generation: John shared a proven contest model for gyms and fitness centers: Run Facebook contests where prospects can win a 6- or 12-month membership. The vast majority who don't win remain red-hot leads for follow-up offers. Reported costs per lead are dramatically lower ($1–$5) than those from typical lead generation companies, with much higher volume and exclusivity of leads (04:03). 4. Powerful Call to Action is Critical: Five key elements to effective direct response are: (1) Identify the problem, (2) Aggravate it, (3) Provide a solution, (4) Offer proof (testimonials), and (5) End with a strong call to action (CTA). Dwyer noted most campaigns fail due to a weak CTA, underscoring the importance of an irresistible, incentive-based close (22:15). 5. Borrowing Equity from Big Brands & Trends: A recurring theme with John is "borrowing" the equity of established brands or cultural trends via licensing (e.g., Disney, Ninja Turtles) or celebrity endorsement (e.g., Jerry Seinfeld for a bank's ad campaign). This shortcut to consumer attention and trust can be particularly powerful for smaller enterprises when deployed wisely (13:28).

Tensions between the US and China have deepened since the last time a US president traveled to Beijing for a summit, in 2017. President Trump’s return to China, in a swirl of dinners and festivities, generated positive optics for host and guest alike, but brought less apparent progress on some of the biggest bilateral sticking points, from tariffs and trade to US arms sales to Taiwan. On today’s Big Take podcast, Big Take Asia host K. Oanh Ha talks to Co-head for Asia John Liu and White House Correspondent Jeff Mason, who were both on the ground in Beijing, about the summit’s deals, sticking points and unfinished business.

In today's Daily Fix:A reported Grand Theft Auto 6 leak from Best Buy suggests the game will go up for pre-order this Monday, and that suggests a new trailer could be dropping very soon. Several gaming influencers have reportedly received an email with details about a GTA 6 pre-order date at Best Buy. It would make sense to pair the official announcement with a GTA 6 Trailer 3, but no announcement has been made by Best Buy or developer Rockstar Games. The last trailer debuted a little over a year ago. In other leak news, prominent Ubisoft leaker j0nathan claims he has revealed the first image from Assassin's Creed Hexe, along with a few details about the game's characters. And finally, director Matt Reeves has confirmed Scarlett Johansson has joined the cast of The Batman — Part 2, but has not revealed the character she'll play.And as part of IGN's 30th anniversary celebration, we're giving away 30 free IGN Live tickets a day.

You saw the video. A DoorDash driver named Livie goes viral on TikTok after reporting that a customer answered the door naked and flashed her. The internet rallied behind her. And then — the story got complicated. Bridget breaks down what actually happened, why the story became a breeding ground for misinformation and AI-generated fake videos, and what it tells us about where we're at when it comes to women speaking up online. Plus the update nobody was expecting: Livie is now facing charges for posting the man naked without his consent. Is this justice? A technicality? Or proof that the system was never built to protect women like her in the first place?

Reported missing twice. A welfare check conducted. Law enforcement called the suspect directly. And according to prosecutors, David Anthony Burke allegedly continued pursuing a thirteen-year-old girl anyway.The People's Brief describes what prosecutors say was a years-long exploitation of Celeste Rivas Hernandez — from the time Burke allegedly met her at age eleven, through a sexual relationship that began at thirteen, to weekends at his Hollywood Hills home and international travel at fourteen. People in Burke's inner circle reportedly believed she was a nineteen-year-old college student. She was in middle school.When her parents confiscated her phone, prosecutors say Burke paid a classmate a thousand dollars to deliver a new one. Text messages pulled from Burke's iCloud allegedly contain references to sex, pregnancy, and abortion. The filing says Celeste's own words — messages where she expressed frustration with the relationship — are now evidence in the case against the man she allegedly trusted.Jennifer Coffindaffer breaks down the grooming pattern, the systemic failures, and how prosecutors are connecting years of alleged abuse directly to motive.Part 2 of 3.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Hidden Killers With Tony Brueski | True Crime News & Commentary
Jake Reiner just did something most people in his position never find the courage to do. Four months after his parents, Rob and Michele Reiner, were found stabbed to death in their Brentwood home, he wrote about it — publicly, personally, and without a filter. He called it his living nightmare. He described the phone call from his sister that split his life in two. He wrote about parents who were his foundation, his guiding lights, the people he'd trade every privileged moment to spend one more hour with.And while Jake laid that grief bare, reports emerged that his brother Nick — the man accused of their parents' murders — is allegedly doing the opposite from inside Twin Towers Correctional Facility. According to Globe magazine insiders, Nick is reportedly planning a revenge tell-all aimed at exposing family secrets and settling scores with the people who have reportedly abandoned him since his arrest.Tony Brueski unpacks the collision between these two realities and what it exposes about the Reiner family dynamic. Nick's reported mental state has been described by multiple sources as delusional — a man who allegedly acknowledges the act but believes his incarceration is a conspiracy. His schizoaffective disorder, a documented history of addiction, and a reported medication change before the murders are all part of a picture that raises hard questions about accountability, illness, and the limits of what a family can survive.Jake's essay and Nick's reported tell-all aren't just competing narratives. They represent two fundamentally different responses to the same catastrophe — one rooted in truth, the other allegedly rooted in the same pattern of manipulation that, according to those who know this family, defined the relationship for years. This episode explores what happens when grief and delusion collide inside a family already shattered beyond repair.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

This week, in an episode we first aired in 2022, we flip the Disney story of life on its head thanks to a barrel of seawater, a 1970s era computer, and underwater geysers. It's the chaos of life. Latif, Lulu, and our Senior Producer Matt Kielty were all sitting on their own little stories until they got thrown into the studio, and had their cherished beliefs about the shape of life put on a collision course. From an accidental study of sea creatures, to the ambitions of Stephen J Gould, to an undercooked theory that captured the world's imagination, we undo the seeming order of the living world and try to make some music out of the wreckage. (Bonus: Learn how Francis Crick really thought life got started on this planet).
