Thursday marks one year since the mass shooting at Annunciation Church and School in Minneapolis. Minnesota Now has a special one-hour program to remember the lives lost and hear how student survivors, parents and staff are grieving and healing. We hear from eighth graders who graduated from Annunciation and are now transitioning to high school. Plus, we learn how the school is supporting students and staff. And after the tragedy, parents mobilized to advocate for gun violence prevention. They worked with other parents who have a shared experience, from Sandy Hook. We have a special musical tribute to Fletcher Merkel, who was killed at 8 years old. And after Harper Moyski's death, her little sister has found sisterhood with Harper's best friends.
In the months after a deadly mass shooting at Annunciation Church and School last year, a group of Annunciation parents turned to organizing to prevent future violence. They met with state lawmakers and supported a range of policy changes, like a ban on assault-style weapons and more funding for mental health care. The Annunciation Light Alliance also found allies in Sandy Hook parents who have built a national advocacy network since the mass shooting at their children's' elementary school in Connecticut in 2012. To learn more about the past year of organizing and what's next, MPR News host Nina Moini talked with Annunciation Light Alliance co-founder Kristen Neville, who has five children at the school, along with Sandy Hook Promise CEO Nicole Hockley, who co-founded that group after losing her son Dylan, a first-grader, in the Sandy Hook tragedy.

Texas Appellate Court Overturns Alex Jones/Sandy Hook Show Trial Verdict! Tune In Now For Exclusive Details On The Biggest 1st Amendment Case In US history! Plus, Nation Horrified After Mother Who Confessed To Murdering Her Three Children Receives Massive Support From Women
TikTok creators are calling Patrick Clancy the real killer. Lindsay Clancy's own defense team has already told a courtroom she did it. Defense attorney and former prosecutor Eric Faddis breaks down what Patrick can do about online accusations reaching millions of people — and psychotherapist Shavaun Scott digs into a warning that came months before the deaths and never changed the treatment plan. Lindsay has pleaded not guilty to three counts of first-degree murder over the deaths of five-year-old Cora, three-year-old Dawson, and eight-month-old Callan. Her defense argues severe postpartum illness removed her criminal responsibility. Prosecutors argue she acted with intention. In 2022, nurse practitioner Rebecca Jollotta raised the possibility of bipolar disorder with Lindsay and her husband, partly based on a reported forty-eight hours without sleep on a new antidepressant. She prescribed an antipsychotic used for bipolar disorder and insomnia, while the antidepressant regimen continued. Dr. Jennifer Tufts testified she weighed bipolar disorder that December and set it aside for lack of mania. Staff at McLean Hospital discussed sleep loss tipping a patient hypomanic before discharging her with a diagnosis of major depressive disorder. Shavaun explains why bipolar disorder often takes years to diagnose correctly, why depression is usually the first label clinicians reach for, and whether the criteria taught in training even apply to a new mother. Faddis then returns to Patrick — creators dissecting his remarriage, analyzing his testimony for signs of guilt, and building narratives the trial evidence doesn't support. He lays out what the Alex Jones and Sandy Hook verdicts established, and why suing anonymous creators with no assets may not be worth the fight regardless of the law.

Her slogan is "One Tough Mother". She is a Shelby County Public Defender, Memphis City Council member and a mother of 3. Democratic nominee Jerri Green explains what motives her to go for the top job in Tennessee. Green says she got into politics because of the Sandy Hook school shooting. “I looked for a way to give back and I got involved with Mom's Demand and then it kind of grew from there, just being more active, talking to my legislatures and trying to figure out how I could change what I saw as a future I didn't want my children to have. And it became more than just gun legislation.” Green says she wants to protect her daughters’ rights because they now have fewer rights than her grandmother did. She also says her youngest child is autistic and worries about what she describes as the dismantling of the Department of Education and the loss of protections that ensure every child can attend public school. She says she would fully fund public education instead of directing money toward school vouchers. During her primary campaign, Green made 150 stops from Memphis to Bristol, visiting small towns and big cities across the state. She says she heard the same concerns everywhere she went: “groceries are too high, gas is too high.” “I'm afraid if I have to go to the hospital, I'll go bankrupt.” “Our schools are crumbling and they're taking money out of it.” Green says many Republicans have reached out to her because they are dissatisfied with leaders who have been in office for decades. On election night, Marsha Blackburn said “the Democrats are running to destroy our state and our nation.” Green responded: “I don't think we're the enemy. I don't think the other side is the enemy. If people are looking for something different, then I hope they will come to us because we have just been ranked the most miserable state in the country to live in. And Republicans have had a super majority and a trifecta of the power, the Senate, the House and the Governor's office for decades. So ask yourself, in the last 2 decades, have your grocery prices gone down? Are your schools better? do you feel healthcare is more accessible and affordable? If the answer is "no" then you only have the people who've been in power to blame and it's time for a change. It's time for a check on their power.” This story was reported by a journalist and has been converted to this platform with the assistance of AI.

While Lindsay Clancy stands trial for killing her three children, TikTok creators are accusing her ex-husband Patrick of being the real killer. They're comparing him to Chris Watts. They're claiming Lindsay didn't jump from the second-floor window — he pushed her. Lindsay's own defense attorney has admitted in open court that she killed the children and is arguing she was not criminally responsible.The conspiracy theories have escalated during the trial. Creators are analyzing Patrick's remarriage to Dr. Rachel Danis, scrutinizing his courtroom demeanor, and constructing narratives that directly contradict the evidence presented before the jury. Patrick is a Microsoft employee living in New York. He testified as the prosecution's first witness and described finding his children after returning from running errands.Defense attorney and former prosecutor Eric Faddis examines the legal question at the center of the social media circus: can Patrick do anything about creators accusing him of murder to audiences of millions? Where the line between opinion and defamation falls. What it means that Patrick likely isn't a traditional public figure. Whether the Alex Jones and Sandy Hook precedent applies. And the practical challenge of filing defamation lawsuits against anonymous creators across multiple jurisdictions with no guarantee of collecting damages.Listen Anywhere You Get Podcasts: https://pod.link/1655749292Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Hidden Killers With Tony Brueski | True Crime News & Commentary
Patrick Clancy lost three children on January 24, 2023. Now TikTok creators are accusing him of killing them. They're comparing him to Chris Watts. They're posting theories that Lindsay didn't jump from the window — he pushed her. They're dissecting his remarriage and his testimony for signs of guilt.Lindsay Clancy's own defense team has told the jury she killed the children. The defense isn't arguing innocence — it's arguing she was not criminally responsible due to postpartum psychosis. The conspiracy theories on social media contradict the position of both the prosecution and the defense.The scrutiny has intensified during the trial. Newsweek published an analysis of the "TikTok jury" phenomenon forming around this case. The Boston Globe ran an opinion piece calling the social media coverage an indictment of public discourse. Creators are examining Patrick's remarriage to Dr. Rachel Danis, comparing his new wife to Lindsay, and framing the speed of his remarriage as suspicious.Defense attorney and former prosecutor Eric Faddis breaks down whether Patrick Clancy has legal options against creators who are accusing him of murder online. The difference between a protected opinion and an actionable defamation claim. Whether Patrick qualifies as a public or private figure. What the Alex Jones and Sandy Hook precedent established. And the practical reality of pursuing lawsuits against creators who are anonymous, scattered across multiple states, and unlikely to have assets worth collecting.Listen Anywhere You Get Podcasts: https://pod.link/1655749292Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

In the aftermath of the 2012 Sandy Hook mass school shooting in Newtown, Connecticut, rightwing commentator Alex Jones peddled bogus conspiracy theories about the tragedy. The Sandy Hook families sued Jones for defamation and emotional distress, and in 2025 a court ordered Jones to pay them nearly $1.5 billion. Jones filed for bankruptcy, and as a court began to sort through his assets, the new owners of parody newspaper The Onion stepped in to take over his far-right platform, Infowars. We'll talk to Ben Collins, CEO of The Onion, about the acquisition and what he plans to do with a “new” Infowars. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
The Columbine High School massacre occurred on April 20th, 1999, in Columbine, Colorado. Perpetrated by high school seniors Eric Harris and Dylan Klebold, it occupies a strange, mimetic place in our culture. Aesthetically inspired by media such as Natural Born Killers, Doom II and Duke Nukem 3d, it went on to provide a template for subsequent mass casualty attacks on soft targets, such as Sandy Hook and Virginia Tech. Harris and Klebold both wrote diaries, so, naturally, we read them. I felt quite unclean after this one.VERY IMPORTANT INFORMATIONContact: jack.bcfh@gmail.comJack has an upcoming novel called 'Audience Capture', out October 2026 through Bonfire Books!

In this extended People Of Lisbon conversation, we meet with Portuguese-American journalist Marta Dhanis to hear more about her remarkable career reporting from the United States.Marta talks about covering some of America's most notorious criminal trials, including El Chapo and Bill Cosby, the emotional impact of reporting from Sandy Hook, how 9/11 inspired her to become a journalist, and the years she spent covering breaking news in New York. She also reflects on growing up in Lisbon with a pilot for a father, returning to Portugal after years in the US, and why success and fulfilment are not always the same thing.This is the longer, rough-cut audio from our People Of Lisbon interview with Marta Dhanis — featuring much more of our conversation than made it into the final film.

“You didn't have to look someone in the eye while you extinguished their life, and you could do it from a distance.” — Mike McIntire on what the gun changedIs there an American way of violence? Earlier this month, the film critic David Thomson blamed gory Hollywood movies, like Coppola's Godfather, for glorifying it. Today's guest has an even more brutal answer. According to Mike McIntire, the three-time Pulitzer Prize-winning New York Times investigative journalist, it's the gun itself that can be blamed for the perpetual American plague of violence.Yes, the gun did it. In his new book Ricochet: Guns, Greed, and the American Way of Violence, McIntire observes that every developed country has violent movies, violent video games, and significant mental illness. But what no other country has are schoolchildren, grocery shoppers, and churchgoers massacred on a regular basis. Up to forty thousand Americans die from guns every year — half of them suicides — and yet we treat these uniquely dangerous machines as if they were iPhones.How did this catastrophe happen? McIntire's answer focuses on the law as much as the culture. English common law imposed a duty to retreat in the event of conflict. Then, amid the centennial jingoism of 1876, an Indiana court declared that “retreat” was not “the tendency of the American mind.” A “true man,” explained an Ohio court, doesn't fly from threats. Stand your ground was born — and with it, a legal redefinition of what it means to be an American.And then there's the NRA — founded in 1871, ironically, by a former New York Times correspondent as a marksmanship club, and radicalized a century later. Its greatest coup was reframing the Second Amendment from militia clause into individual right — a maneuver that Warren Burger, a Republican chief justice, called the “biggest fraud” ever perpetrated on the American people. And today even the NRA looks moderate compared to new online radical right-wing gun rights groups.McIntire, a gun owner himself, doesn't preach. Instead he describes his first murder scene as a young cop reporter — the dead man peacefully lying in the grass, one small round hole in the side of his head. Clean, efficient, clinical. Like an iPhone app. That's the American way of violence. The gun did it. And will continue to do so until America retreats from its deadly love affair with the firearm.Five Takeaways• It's the Gun Itself. Every developed country has violent movies, violent video games, mental illness, and toxic social media. What none of them has, McIntire argues, is a repetitive, constant problem of schoolchildren, grocery shoppers, and churchgoers being massacred. Up to forty thousand Americans a year die from guns — half of them suicides — and firearms account for three-quarters or more of all homicides. Yet America treats these uniquely dangerous things as ordinary consumer goods, bought, sold, marketed, and carried around like an iPhone or a wallet. Whatever role Hollywood plays — and McIntire takes David Thomson's argument seriously — you have to start with the one thing that is actually different: the gun.• A Daily Trickle of Bloodshed. When a plane crash kills two hundred people, there is a massive media and government response. When two hundred people die in scattered shootings across fifty states in the same period, there is a local news story, and then nothing. Gun violence in America has slipped into the category of acceptable losses — background noise. The conundrum for gun-safety advocates is how to sustain attention on a crisis that only becomes visible when the next Sandy Hook or Parkland arrives.• No Duty to Retreat. English common law, imported into the colonies, required you to retreat from a public confrontation before resorting to lethal force. Amid the centennial fervor of 1876, American courts began overturning homicide convictions on new grounds: retreat, declared Indiana's Supreme Court, was not “the tendency of the American mind,” and a “true man,” added an Ohio court, need not fly from an aggressor. The repeating rifle helped make the old duty obsolete — you cannot outrun a bullet — and stand your ground became canon. Every week, somewhere in America, the defense still succeeds.• “The Biggest Fraud”: Rewriting the Second Amendment. The founders' great fear was a standing army; the amendment preserved a well regulated militia — trained and disciplined, not unlimited. Beginning in the 1970s, the NRA underwrote sympathetic scholarship, law reviews, and court cases in a deliberate long game to recast the amendment as an individual right — moving guns from common law, where legislatures can regulate, into constitutional law, where they largely cannot. Warren Burger, the Republican former chief justice, called it the biggest fraud he had ever seen perpetrated on the American people. Now the Supreme Court's “common use” test — found nowhere in the Constitution — means a weapon popular enough may be unbannable, with AR-15 bans next on the docket.• The Death Star Eclipsed. McIntire's cache of internal NRA documents traces the organization's path from post-Civil War marksmanship club — cofounded by a former New York Times correspondent — to radicalized lobbying juggernaut, complete with pro-gun Democrats like John Dingell on its board. Today it has been outflanked by no-compromise groups like the Firearms Policy Coalition, which at any given moment is pushing more lawsuits against state gun laws than the NRA. Guns remain the third rail — Beto O'Rourke said “hell yes” to taking away AR-15s and has not held office since. The irony in McIntire's prescription: gun-safety advocates should copy the NRA's own generation-long legal strategy.About the GuestMike McIntire is an investigative journalist at The New York Times and a member of three Pulitzer Prize-winning reporting teams, whose work has exposed everything from Russian election interference to the hidden financial incentives of policing. He is the author of Champions Way: Football, Florida, and the Lost Soul of College Sports. He lives in Ridgefield, Connecticut. His new book is Ricochet: Guns, Greed, and the American Way of Violence (One Signal/Atria, July 2026).References:• Ricochet: Guns, Greed, and the American Way of Violence by Mike McIntire (One Signal/Atria, July 2026).

Nick Reiner pleaded not guilty to two counts of first-degree murder with special circumstances in connection with the stabbing deaths of his parents. He remains held without bail, capital punishment has not been ruled out, and his siblings have formally distanced themselves from his defense. This look back examines both the procedural posture of the case and the family dynamics surrounding it.The not guilty plea preserves the defense's options while evaluation continues — potentially a legal insanity claim, a diminished-capacity argument addressing premeditation and the degree of the offense, or a competency determination. The high-profile attorney initially retained withdrew early in the proceedings, and representation passed to the county public defender's office. Reporting indicates the siblings do not intend to participate in the trial, and that the defendant's contact in custody has been limited largely to counsel.The segment situates the siblings' decision within a documented history of long-term intervention — repeated treatment, a prior conservatorship, and recurring crises — and then examines comparable cases for context. It references Peter Lanza's public estrangement from his son following the Sandy Hook attack, the Roof family's withdrawal from public life after the Charleston church murders, and Kerri Rawson's account of reconciling her father's identity as the BTK offender. Throughout, the analysis treats these as illustrative parallels rather than equivalencies, and distinguishes confirmed reporting from family statements and single-source accounts.#NickReiner #RobReiner #MicheleReiner #JakeRomyReiner #TrueCrime #FamilyEstrangement #PeterLanza #KerriRawson #CriminalDefense #HiddenKillers
The satirical news site The Onion is planning to send $100,000 to families of the victims of the Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting. AP correspondent Donna Warder reports.

They never appear in the photo. They never take the credit. But without them, there's no flyover, no Brandenburg Gate speech, no “Mr. Gorbachev, tear down this wall.” For sixty years, the people behind every presidential moment have operated under one unwritten rule: what happens on the road stays on the road. Jean Becker and Tom Collamore have finally convinced 96 of them to break it.Jean and Tom join me to discuss their new book Don't Tell the President, a bipartisan collection of stories spanning LBJ through Obama. We get into the bicycle bell phone trick that conjured a fake presidential call, how Chelsea Clinton ended up chasing Air Force One through Moscow in a laundry van, what really went into making Reagan's Berlin Wall speech historic, and why Bob Dole ended up being greeted by Daffy Duck and Frankenstein at what was supposed to be a campaign event.We also go to the serious side — 9/11, Sandy Hook, assassination attempts on Ford and Reagan — and what it means to be the person who has to put a president in the right place on the worst days in American history.Jean Becker served as Chief of Staff to President George H.W. Bush is the author of The Man I Knew and Character Matters. Tom Collamore is a senior advisor to the George and Barbara Bush Foundation, was Chief of Staff and assistant Secretary of Commerce in the George H W Bush Administration senior fellow at the Bush Presidential Library and a veteran of multiple presidential trips.(00:00:03) Introduction(00:01:50) How the book came to be(00:06:31) What does a presidential advance person actually do?(00:08:46) John the Baptist: the first advance person(00:10:43) The bicycle bell phone trick(00:13:00) Chelsea Clinton and the Moscow laundry van(00:15:27) How advance changed after the Reagan assassination attempt(00:17:44) The Secret Service relationship(00:20:08) Robert Gates as a pre-advance person(00:22:28) The nude beach in Martinique(00:24:48) George W.

What happens when three experienced investigators from opposite sides of the world sit down to examine how police respond to an active shooter? In this special crossover between Stop the Killing and Watching Two Detectives, former FBI Special Agent Katherine Schweit joins retired New South Wales detectives Peter Hogan and Scott Rogan for an expert examination of the lessons that have reshaped mass-shooting prevention, preparation and police response. Katherine was working on national security and counterterrorism cases when the murder of 20 children and six educators at Sandy Hook Elementary School changed the direction of her career. Following the shooting, she was appointed to the White House team tasked with developing a coordinated national response to mass shootings and became the architect of the FBI's Active Shooter Program. In Part One, Katherine explains how the devastating events at Sandy Hook helped accelerate a fundamental change in policing: moving away from the traditional strategy of “contain, negotiate and wait” towards the immediate deployment of officers to confront and stop an active threat. Peter and Scott reveal how those lessons travelled across the world and influenced Australian policing. They discuss the introduction of New South Wales Police's Active Armed Offender training, the impact of the 2014 Lindt Café siege and the confronting reality of preparing ordinary frontline officers to run towards attackers armed with military-style weapons. Together, they explore: Why active-shooter incidents can be over within minutes The extraordinary risks faced by the first officers entering the scene Why an active shooter and a mass shooting are not always the same thing Why workplaces—not schools—account for many active-shooter attacks in the United States The challenges of negotiating with attackers driven by extremist or ideological motives Why warning signs must be recognised and reported before violence begins How information shared by one student helped prevent a planned school shooting Why measuring the attacks that never happened is so important Katherine also shares the remarkable story of the message that reminded her why Stop the Killing must continue: a school vice principal who credited the podcast with helping her team recognise the warning signs and prevent a planned attack. This conversation lays the groundwork for the next part of the series, when Katherine, Peter and Scott turn their attention to the December 14, 2025 Bondi Beach terrorist attack, examining the actions of the attackers, civilians and responding officers through their combined FBI and Australian policing experience. The attack targeted a Hanukkah celebration and killed 15 people. This is not simply a conversation about what happened. It is a conversation about what has been learned, what has changed—and what still needs to change to stop the next attack. Listen now to Part One of this special multi-part crossover.

Before the team turns its attention to the Bondi Beach killings, they take a deeper look at the realities that sit behind conversations about firearms, mass violence and public safety. Katherine explains why she wrote Stop the Killing: A Simple Guide to the Second Amendment and why productive conversations about guns in the United States have become so difficult. With hundreds of millions of firearms already in circulation, she argues that prevention has to begin with the laws, risks and realities that currently exist—not the world people wish existed. The conversation also examines one of the most overlooked parts of America's firearms crisis: suicide. Katherine explains that the majority of firearm deaths in the United States are self-inflicted, raising difficult questions about access to weapons during moments of crisis and how firearms can turn a temporary period of distress into an irreversible outcome. Peter, Scott and Katherine discuss: Why active-shooter attacks and other forms of mass violence are not directly comparable How the weapon used can dramatically change the number of casualties The difference between bolt-action, semi-automatic and automatic firearms Why Australia's firearms restrictions mattered during the Bondi Beach attack How the elevated firing position at Bondi could have produced an even greater loss of life if different weapons had been available What the 2017 Las Vegas mass shooting demonstrates about firing speed, distance and crowd density Why statistics must be properly explained rather than used to support a predetermined argument The conversation then moves from mass-shooting prevention to another extraordinary investigation from Katherine's career. Katherine introduces her book Women Who Talk to the Dead, which follows Detroit detective Shannon Jones and FBI forensic specialist Leslie Larsen as they uncover a connection between missing-person investigations and unidentified murder victims buried in paupers' graves. What begins with one detective searching through decades-old paper files develops into the largest exhumation of murder victims ever undertaken by the FBI. Katherine reveals how a team of female detectives, prosecutors, forensic anthropologists and investigators volunteered their expertise and time to recover remains, obtain DNA and finally return names to people who had been unidentified for decades. Peter also reflects on his own experience working alongside a forensic anthropologist during the painstaking exhumation of a murder victim—and why a line in a news report stating that investigators “exhumed the body and obtained DNA” can never capture the time, care and expertise that work truly requires. This episode is about the human realities hidden behind the statistics: the people lost to firearms, the investigators who carry the responsibility of finding answers and the extraordinary work required to give unidentified victims their names back. And after two episodes of expert discussion, the stage is now set. In Part Three, Katherine Schweit, Peter Hogan and Scott Rogan turn their combined FBI and New South Wales policing experience towards the Bondi Beach killings and examine the events of that tragic day.

Det grønlandske sundhedsvæsen har fået stor amerikansk opmærksomhed de seneste måneder. Nu skal en ny aftale sikre, at der kommer mere dansk sundhedspersonale til Grønland. Så har det amerikanske pres virket? Mange unge bruger UV-indekset til at sikre sig allermest sol på huden, stik modsat hvad indekset bør bruges til, hvis man spørger Kræftens Bekæmpelse. Hvorfor vil de unge pludselig være brune? Computerspillet Roblox, som særligt er populært blandt børn og unge, har flere gange fået kritik for ikke at sikre sig mod ekstremt indhold. Senest for en bane, der ligner skoleskyderiet på Sandy Hook. Vært: Adrian Busk. Medvirkende: Lasse Lindegaard, journalist, DR. Rune Kristian Lundedal Nielsen, spilforsker, lektor, IT Universitetet.

Jeanne started her Connecticut chapter one town over from Newtown. After Sandy Hook, she and her friends made 3,000 green and white scarves. When it was over, everyone asked what was next. They found Binky Patrol. That was twelve years ago. Barbara joined as the chapter's voice, connector, and fundraiser — rheumatoid arthritis in her hands, no shortage of heart. Together they've delivered blankets to 199 students after a classmate's murder, to a Florida family stranded in Connecticut ICU beds, to a young man with spinal muscular atrophy who was given a year to live and is now 21. "All I want is for him to be remembered. When his friends say, 'What can we do for you, Barb?' I says, 'Don't forget his father. Don't forget me. But more importantly, don't ever forget him.'" - Barb This year the Connecticut chapter is aiming to hit 30,000 total blankets — a number that lands squarely on Binky Patrol's 30th anniversary.

Susie describes why the man who popularized climbing Everest claims he never meant to do that, why he thinks people should climb in a different way, and why it's much easier to scale the highest mountain now than a few years ago. We find out what Sarah thinks is the number one horror film ever made. We discuss twins who don't share a father, and why it raises questions about identity and personhood. We learn the difference between Western runners and the Kenyan and Ethiopian runners who dominate the sport, and the reasons they are defying the "science" of running and still winning marathons and setting world records. We debate the ethics of "unwritten rules" in sports, how these codes are set and enforced, and the ways they're good and bad.00:00 - Personal Reflections on Mother's Day and Sandy Hook's Impact12:40 - How Commercialization Changed Everest Climbing and Its Meaning24:22 - Exploring Addictive Personalities and Toxic Masculinity in Extreme Sports38:11 - The Rare Case of Twins with Different Fathers and Identity's Layers44:27 - African Runners' Communal Approach Defies Western Training Science50:58 - Debating the Ethics and Impact of Unwritten Rules in SportsBrain Candy Podcast Website - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/Brain Candy Podcast Book Recommendations - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/books/Brain Candy Podcast Merchandise - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/candy-store/Brain Candy Podcast Candy Club - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/product/candy-club/Brain Candy Podcast Sponsor Codes - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/support-us/Brain Candy Podcast Social Media & Platforms:Brain Candy Podcast LIVE Interactive Trivia Nights - https://www.youtube.com/@BrainCandyPodcast/streamsBrain Candy Podcast Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/braincandypodcastHost Susie Meister Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/susiemeisterHost Sarah Rice Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/imsarahriceBrain Candy Podcast on X: https://www.x.com/braincandypodBrain Candy Podcast Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/braincandy (JOIN FREE - TONS OF REALITY TV CONTENT)Brain Candy Podcast Sponsors, partnerships, & Products that we love:Get 40% off your first order PLUS get a free item in every box for life when you go to https://www.hungryroot.com/braincandy and use code braincandyVisit https://www.carawayhome.com/braincandypod to take an additional 10% off using code BRAINCANDYPOD on your next purchase.Head to https://cozyearth.com and use our code BRAINCANDY for an exclusive 20% off.

Send us Fan MailAmerica doesn't collapse in one dramatic moment, it erodes under incentives that reward extraction over care. We start with a big-picture reckoning: a financialized economy that treats speculation as productivity, a social contract that feels like a lottery ticket, and public systems that crumble while wealth retreats behind private gates. Along the way we talk healthcare costs, student loan debt, infrastructure failure, inequality, climate risk, and the uncomfortable idea that markets have replaced morals in too many places. Then we shift to the attention economy and the crisis of truth. We unpack how long-form podcast culture can flatten expertise into “just opinions,” using Joe Rogan as a case study in platform power, selective free speech claims, and algorithmic amplification. When engagement becomes the metric, misinformation, conspiratorial thinking, and anti-expert posturing don't just spread, they scale. From there we examine Alex Jones and the machinery of conspiracy monetization: Sandy Hook defamation, fear as a product, supplements as the cash register, and the slow grind of legal accountability. We close with a sharp turn to foreign policy ethics, asking what changes when you apply the Nuremberg principles consistently to postwar US presidents and the uses of force carried out in America's name.

Totally coincidence that Trump keeps making great stock buys based on his own political decisions? Shitler says he wants Iran’s “nuclear dust” for PR. The illegal war with Iran is effing up our military. A racist influencer was arrested for attempted murder and his bail was north of a million. VIP Nazi within the Trump administration, Sebastion Gorka equivocated right vs. left political violence with shade tossed at Tucker Carlson and Nick Fuentes. Sandy Hook defamer and former Infowars Czar Alex Jones performed a spot-on impression of Gorka. SCOTUS said mifepristone could be mailed, for now.
In this deeply human episode of the WTTA Guns and Mental Health Podcast, Michael Sodini sits down with Nelba Márquez-Greene, mother of Ana Grace, who was murdered in the Sandy Hook shooting.This conversation is not about politics or taking sides. It is about listening. Nelba shares her story as a mother, wife, clinician, educator, and survivor of unimaginable loss. Together, she and Michael discuss grief, community, storytelling, faith, mental health, responsible conversations around firearms, and the importance of seeing one another as human before anything else.It is a powerful reminder that real progress begins when people are willing to sit together, listen honestly, and refuse to let tragedy become just another talking point.Send us Fan MailWalk the Talk America would like to thank our partners who make these conversations possible and would like to highlight our top two partner tiers below!

The mainstream media failed to hold Alex Jones accountable for more than 30 years. A satire company is poised to do what journalism wouldn't.Ben Collins knows why. As a former far-right extremism reporter inside mainstream media, he watched newsrooms normalize and platform Alex Jones' conspiracy theories in the name of "both sides" journalism. Now he's chief executive officer of The Onion's parent company, Global Tetrahedron — the company poised to turn Infowars into the joke it's always been.Infowars founder Alex Jones owes more than $1.4 billion to Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting families after years of defamation and harassment. In 2024, a bankruptcy court thwarted The Onion's winning bid to buy Infowars and share proceeds with the Sandy Hook families.Last month, The Onion reached a deal to license the Infowars website and its intellectual property for six months. Then Jones won an appeal to stop the process. But the appeal could be overturned at any moment, allowing The Onion to finally have the last laugh over Infowars.This week, Katelyn and Christine discuss the evolving situation with Collins. Why did it take a satire company to defeat Infowars? His answer is a structural indictment of journalism itself.Cancel Me, Daddy is a progressive media criticism show hosted by journalists Katelyn Burns and Christine Grimaldi.

The president had 60 days to ask Congress for permission to keep fighting a war with Iran. Today was the deadline. He didn't ask. He sent a letter saying the war is "terminated," while 50,000 troops remain deployed, the naval blockade continues, oil sits at $118 a barrel, gas is at $4.12, and the Secretary of Defense told the world he could resume strikes "at the push of a button."Meanwhile, his sons signed a Pentagon drone deal. The Supreme Court gutted the Voting Rights Act. The Fifth Circuit blocked mifepristone from being mailed anywhere in the country. A whistleblower revealed the DOJ rushed the SPLC indictment. Infowars went dark forever. The new surgeon general nominee has spent years publicly calling out RFK Jr. And the owner of Politico told his journalists to support Israel or resign.Robin breaks down the entire week: the War Powers Resolution deadline and why Trump's "ceasefire means the war is over" argument is constitutionally indefensible. The Trump family drone company Powerus and how Don Jr. and Eric are positioned to profit from their father's unauthorized war. The Supreme Court's 6-3 ruling eviscerating Section 2 of the Voting Rights Act, the DOJ's gleeful "we are ON IT" response, and the state-by-state domino effect already underway in Louisiana, Alabama, Florida, Mississippi, and beyond. The Fifth Circuit's nationwide ruling blocking mail-order mifepristone and what it means for abortion access in every state. The SPLC whistleblower who says Associate Deputy AG Aakash Singh ordered prosecutors to rush a weak indictment against a civil rights organization for the crime of infiltrating white supremacist groups.Casey Means getting pulled and Nicole Saphier's history of criticizing Kennedy's anti-vaccine empire.

The parent company of the satirical publication The Onion has a deal to take control of Infowars, the conspiracist media machine built by Alex Jones for the past 26 years. It is a proposed six-month licensing arrangement, pending approval from a Texas judge, with an option to renew. That is expected to be approved this Thursday, April 30th. Travis and Jake speak to former NBC News reporter and The Onion CEO Ben Collins about the deal, the new creative vision for Infowars, what it means to Sandy Hook parents who were victimized by Jones, and comedian Tim Heidecker's role as creative director for the venture. Before that, Julian joins us to unpack theories related to Cole Tomas Allen, the Torrance man who was charged with attempting to assassinate the president after attempting to storm the White House Correspondents' Association dinner.

The notorious conspiracy theorist profited from his vile Sandy Hook conspiracy. Then America's finest (fake) news source decided to troll the world's greatest troll. Ben Collins — who transformed from reporting on the historic Infowars defamation trial to buying out his "ideological enemy" in a Storage Wars-style auction saga — tells Pablo why The Onion committed to the ultimate bit: doing the right thing.(Pablo Torre Finds Out is independently produced by Meadowlark Media and distributed by The Athletic.

Get Jen's book 'Lifting Up' and 'Showing Up' on Amazon today! --- In this episode, I sit down with Jen Marr — Human Disruption Specialist, author of Lifting Up and Showing Up, and founder of the organization Showing Up — who brings one of the most extraordinary and hard-earned perspectives on leadership I've ever encountered. Jen shares how being just 700 yards from the finish line during the 2013 Boston Marathon bombing, combined with her frontline support work after the Sandy Hook school shooting, gave her a transformational understanding of how humans navigate disruption, trauma, and change — and how those exact same principles apply to every entrepreneur and leader running a company today. We dig into why most organizations get communication wrong, why AI will never replace human-to-human connection, and why the cortisol flooding your team's bodies every day can only be overpowered by oxytocin — the bonding hormone that's triggered when a leader genuinely says, "I've got your back." Jen walks us through her "fast and frequent one-on-one" framework, how to handle the emotional overwhelm of employees without becoming their therapist, the growing crisis of "fear of taking part" in Gen Z workers, and how native analogs and native digitals can bridge the workplace communication gap. If you lead a team of any size, this conversation will fundamentally change how you show up for the people around you.

Long Shadow listeners: Today we're sharing a great episode of the Question Everything podcast in our feed because it's the perfect crossover between "In Guns We Trust" and "Breaking the Internet."Propagandist? Truth teller? Influencer? Question Everything unravels the contested work of journalists and the moral complexities surrounding the stories that impact us all.Episode description: Kate grew up believing the Sandy Hook school shooting was an elaborate false flag operation. For years she thought the 20 elementary school children and six educators who were killed that day did not actually die, but were played by crisis actors. And then, one day – in a matter of minutes – suddenly Kate realized how wrong she was. Question Everything host Brian Reed talks with Kate about what it's like to realize you believed something so obviously wrong, so deeply damaging, for so long. And he argues that her story is a case study for reforming Section 230 – the 1996 law that gives tech companies massive immunity from getting sued over what people post. Without that law, platforms like YouTube, which amplified the lies about Sandy Hook that Kate once believed, could be taken to court by the Sandy Hook families. “Question Everything” is a production of KCRW and Placement Theory.Guests: Kate, a former conspiracy believer Dr. Joan Donovan, disinformation scholar and Director of the Critical Internet Studies Institute at Boston University Thanks for listening to Long Shadow and be sure to listen and subscribe to Question Everything wherever you get your podcasts.

In this interview Jimmy and Alex Jones discuss the assassination of Charlie Kirk, with Jones explaining why he's skeptical of certain theories about who killed Charlie pushed by Candace Owens—specifically the claims about Egyptian planes and Mitch Snow—while still firmly believing there is some sort of coverup about up the murder going on. Jones clarifies he's not "compromised" by his billion-dollar Sandy Hook judgment, is still fighting in court, and simply refuses to endorse what he considers provably false information that discredits legitimate investigation. In the face of all the inconsistencies and dubious explanations surrounding the dominant narrative, Jones acknowledges that Israel's threats against Charlie and his outspoken opposition to the Iran war make Israel a plausible suspect, but insists on following verifiable evidence rather than getting lost in rabbit holes. The conversation highlights the tension between Jones' history of skepticism toward government explanations and his current unwillingness to entertain ideas other podcasters have floated. Plus segments on Kanye West's accurate accusations against Jared Kushner and Iranian leaders dunking on Pete Hegseth. Also featuring Kurt Metzger, Stef Zamorano and Mike MacRae. And a phone call from Al Pacino!
Hidden Killers With Tony Brueski | True Crime News & Commentary
Jake and Romy Reiner are done. Sources close to the family told TMZ directly: "Nick's defense is Nick's defense. They're not involved." The high-profile defense attorney they initially funded—Alan Jackson, known for winning the Karen Read acquittal—withdrew from the case in January. Nick Reiner now has a public defender. Reports indicate his siblings won't attend the trial. In over two months of incarceration, his only visitor has been his lawyer. This Hidden Killers Week In Review examines what brought two siblings to this point—and what his not guilty plea actually signals.Nick Reiner pleaded not guilty to two counts of first-degree murder with special circumstances in the December 14th stabbing deaths of his parents, Rob Reiner and Michele Singer Reiner, at their Brentwood home. But that plea wasn't a claim of innocence. It was a procedural placeholder keeping all defense options open.In California, pursuing an insanity defense requires a dual plea. The single not guilty keeps doors open while psychiatric evaluations continue. Door one: full insanity under M'Naghten—a longshot given Nick was arguing with his father at a party hours before the killings. Door two: diminished actuality using his schizoaffective disorder to argue he couldn't form specific intent. Door three: incompetence to stand trial.After eighteen rehabs, a conservatorship, and years of police visits to the family home, what does it cost to finally stop holding on? Tony Brueski examines what three other families can teach us. Peter Lanza walked away from Adam after Sandy Hook. The Roof family went silent after Charleston. Kerri Rawson had to grieve BTK as two separate losses.The question isn't whether Jake and Romy were right to step back. It's what it cost them to hold on this long.The death penalty remains on the table.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

The Nick Reiner murder case reached a new turning point when siblings Jake and Romy Reiner — children of the late Rob and Michele Singer Reiner — officially distanced themselves from Nick's defense following his not guilty plea on February 23rd, 2026.Nick Reiner, 32, faces two counts of first-degree murder with special circumstances in the December 14th, 2025 stabbing deaths of his parents at their Brentwood, California home. He is held without bail. The Los Angeles County District Attorney's office has not ruled out the death penalty. His next hearing is April 29th, 2026.Sources with direct knowledge told TMZ that Jake and Romy no longer plan to fund a private defense attorney — and that they will not attend the trial. The family had previously hired prominent defense attorney Alan Jackson, who withdrew in January citing circumstances he said were legally and ethically impossible to disclose. Public defender Kimberly Greene is now Nick's sole legal representation. In more than two months of incarceration, she is reportedly the only person who has visited him.True Crime Today's Tony Brueski examines the legal and personal implications of the family's decision, and places it alongside three high-profile cases where families made the same impossible choice: Peter Lanza after Sandy Hook, the family of Charleston church shooter Dylann Roof, and Kerri Rawson — daughter of BTK killer Dennis Rader — who processed her grief in a memoir that reframed what it means to love someone who turns out to be capable of something monstrous.With the death penalty on the table and a preliminary hearing to be scheduled April 29th, the Reiner case is far from over. But for Jake and Romy, it may already be.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?
