Broadcast from KSQD, Santa Cruz on 12-11-2025: Dr. Dawn presents colleague Dr. Paul Godin's essay on why US healthcare fails as a market system . She explains that healthcare violates every assumption of functional markets: patients can't compare options during emergencies, information asymmetry prevents informed decisions, demand is inelastic when one has an urgent medical issue, and trust is essential to medicine and in direct conflict with profit incentives. Since 1988's Knox-Keen Act allowed for-profit healthcare, private equity has acquired and stripped hospitals, while administrative costs consume enormous resources fighting over payments rather than providing care. She contrasts this with European models like Switzerland and Germany where everyone must participate, insurers must accept all patients, and profit on basic coverage is limited. She celebrates a vaccination success story: HPV vaccines have reduced cervical cancer by 50% over 30 years. The American Cancer Society now endorses self-collected vaginal samples for HPV screening, with an FDA-approved at-home kit from Teal Health allowing women to skip speculums and traditional Pap smears. Current guidelines recommend screening starting at age 25, with testing every five years after a negative result. Dr. Dawn issues a health alert about multiple hospitalizations in Santa Cruz County from foraged wild mushrooms identified incorrectly by phone apps. She describes cholinergic toxicity symptoms: sweating, excessive salivation, pinpoint pupils, and abdominal cramping—signs requiring immediate emergency care rather than waiting it out. She offers follow-up vaccine advice: "go in wet, then sweat." Hydrate before vaccination, then take a hot Epsom salt bath until sweat runs off your face. This helps eliminate adjuvants that cause post-vaccine fatigue and aches, which are often misinterpreted as catching illness from the vaccine itself. Dr. Dawn expresses alarm that Kennedy's reconstituted ACIP nearly voted to eliminate hepatitis B vaccination at birth. She notes infants exposed to infected mothers have 99% infection rates, with half becoming chronically infected and half of those developing terminal cirrhosis or cancer. Testing pregnant women misses infections acquired during pregnancy, and 12-16% of delivering women have no test records. Major insurers have committed to covering birth vaccination through 2026 despite the panel's actions. She offers holiday microbiome advice from researcher Karen Corbin: increase fiber intake through steel-cut oats, whole grain breads like Dave's Killer Bread, beans, apples, and alternative pastas made from lentils or garbanzo beans. Cooking potatoes ahead and reheating creates resistant starch that feeds beneficial gut bacteria, reduces inflammation, and even stimulates natural GLP-1 production. Dr. Dawn reviews research proving health insurance saves lives. When the ACA's Medicaid expansion became optional by state, researchers could compare outcomes, finding 8% lower mortality and 19,000 fewer deaths in expansion states over four years. An accidental IRS experiment—sending insurance enrollment letters to only 85% of penalty payers—showed significantly lower mortality among those who subsequently got insured. Studies of gunshot and auto accident victims found uninsured patients died more often despite receiving identical emergency treatment. She concludes with surprising cancer symptoms: chest pain specifically triggered by alcohol consumption may indicate Hodgkin's lymphoma, as vasodilation activates inflammatory chemicals in affected lymph nodes. Fractures from minimal trauma in people without osteoporosis warrant investigation, as 5% of cancers involve bone. Elevated calcium levels double cancer diagnosis risk in the following year and should prompt follow-up testing.

Corría el l el siglo XVI y  Santa Cruz de Mompox se erige majestuosa como una pujante comunidad comercial donde los barcos que surcaban el rio tenían que parar a descansar o a entregar las mercancías que llevaban. siendo puerto obligado y centro de comercio y fe Mompox era visitado por todo tipo de personas. En una mañana La neblina del río y el calor húmedo envolvían  la ciudad entera cuando los habitantes vieron llegar tres forasteros de aspecto enigmático.Los tres hombres, silenciosos y de miradas profundas, desembarcaron buscando alojamiento. Se dirigieron a la antigua Albarrada de los Ángeles como se conocía en aquel entonces aquel lugar y que hoy se conoce como la albarrada de los Turcos Los forasteros alquilaron una de las grandes bodegas de la zona cosa que no era extraño debido a que Mompox era utilizado como lugar de almacenamiento de mercancías. Lo que si llamó la atención de los lugareños no fue su ropa ni su acento, sino su equipaje: cada uno cargaba con esfuerzo una larga caja de madera, muy parecida a un ataúd. Luego visitaron Pagaron el importe de su renta y entraron en la bodega con sus extrañas cargas, cerraron las puertas y nunca más se les volvió a ver.Durante los primeros días, la gente del pueblo pasaba cerca del lugar y escuchaba los golpes del cincel y el martillo. Sin embargo, al cabo de unos días, los ruidos cesaron por completo. Un silencio absoluto se apoderó del taller y la bodega permanecía en un silencio sepulcral. No se veía entrar ni salir a nadie, y la quietud comenzó a inquietar a la comunidad.  El sacerdote y las monjas notaron algo aún más inquietante: la comida que dejaban en la puerta permanecía intacta. Día tras día, los platos se acumulaban sin que nadie los tocara.El dueño del local, junto con los vecinos de la Albarrada, temiendo lo peor —que aquellos hombres hubiesen muerto por alguna enfermedad repentina o de hambre— decidieron intervenir.Armados de valor y herramientas, forzaron las cerraduras. Al abrir las puertas, la luz del sol iluminó el interior de la bodega, revelando una escena desconcertante: El lugar estaba vacío de personas. De los tres forasteros no había ni rastro, ni siquiera sus huellas en el polvo.habitación estaba vacía.·       No había rastro de los tres hombres.·       No había virutas de madera en el suelo.·       No había herramientas.·       La única salida era una ventana pequeña por donde era imposible que hubieran escapado tres personas.·       Sin embargo, en el centro del recinto yacían, intactas, las tres cajas de madera. Con manos temblorosas, los vecinos procedieron a destapar las cajas. El asombro fue colectivo. Dentro de cada una no había cadáveres humanos, sino tallas divinas: tres Cristos de madera.La factura de las esculturas era tan perfecta, tan dolorosamente humana, que los presentes tuvieron que tocarlas para cerciorarse de que no eran de carne y hueso. La piel parecía sudar, las heridas sangrar y los músculos contraerse por el dolor de la pasión.El pueblo comprendió entonces que aquellos tres hombres no eran escultores humanos..Al revisar las cajas, encontraron papeles que indicaban el destino final de cada imagen:1.             Mompox (Bolívar)2.             San Benito Abad (Sucre)3.             Zaragoza (Antioquia)Los frailes Agustinos Calzados, custodios de la fe en la zona, toma

Ela começou a nadar com apenas dois anos, competiu pela primeira vez aos sete e, ainda adolescente, ingressou no Sport Club Corinthians Paulista, onde se firmou como fundista. Passou depois por alguns outros clubes, destacando-se nas provas de 800m e 1.500m. Em 2005, foi incentivada por seu técnico, que mais tarde se tornaria seu marido, a estrear na Travessia dos Fortes. Venceu não apenas o medo de nadar no mar, mas também a competição, inaugurando o que seria uma nova oportunidade de permanecer na natação e testar seu potencial nas maratonas aquáticas. A partir dali, o potencial se transformou em resultados. Em 2006, conquistou duas pratas no Campeonato Mundial de Águas Abertas. No Pan do Rio de Janeiro, em 2007, levou a prata nos 10 km; em 2008, estreou nos Jogos Olímpicos de Pequim, terminando em sétimo lugar; e, em 2009, viveu uma temporada histórica ao vencer nove das onze etapas do circuito mundial, conquistando a Copa do Mundo de Maratonas Aquáticas. No mesmo ano, garantiu o bronze no Mundial de Esportes Aquáticos, tornando-se a primeira nadadora brasileira a conquistar uma medalha na história da competição. Em 2011, nos Jogos Pan-Americanos, levou a prata e, no Mundial de 2013, alcançou o ápice com ouro nos 10 km, prata nos 5 km e bronze na prova por equipes. Em 2016, nos Jogos do Rio, conquistou o bronze na prova dos 10 km da maratona aquática, tornando-se a primeira brasileira a ganhar uma medalha olímpica na natação. Encerrou a carreira em 2017, ano do lançamento de sua biografia, e logo depois iniciou uma nova fase: junto com o marido, criou uma assessoria de natação em águas abertas e uma travessia que leva seu nome. Em 2021, fundou seu Instituto e, desde 2020, trabalha na agência VEGA Sports. Contudo, sua conquista mais festejada veio em 2021, com o nascimento de Lucca. Conosco de volta aqui, a ex-nadadora dona de uma história marcada por conquistas, reinvenção e legado, eleita a melhor nadadora de águas abertas do mundo em duas ocasiões, integrante do Hall da Fama Internacional da Maratona Aquática, comentarista da TV Globo, ícone da natação brasileira e triatleta em desenvolvimento, a paulistana Poliana Okimoto Cintra.

President Trump announced a $12 billion bailout for farmers in response to the effects of his tariffs, but it leaves out most small-scale fruit and vegetable producers. Plus, a new cohousing community is coming to Santa Cruz.

Andy and Nick sit down with STS9's Hunter Brown and Alana Rocklin for a very jam band episode of the World Saving Podcast. They dive into The Human Dream, STS9's new concept-leaning record, why it captures what Sound Tribe really sounds like in 2025, and how their Santa Cruz environment and the devastating Big Basin fire shaped the music. They get honest about the modern jam band scene, from fan tribalism to former member Murph playing the old songs again, and why Hunter refuses to treat music like sports rivalries. There is also a frank talk about the brutal economics of touring, Red Rocks, and why even successful bands are rethinking how they hit the road as costs skyrocket. Alana opens up about raising a kid while living the musician life, losing her home in the fire, and turning that trauma into bass lines and new songs. Hunter gets into mindset, hypnotherapy, "being a great number two," and what a more human music world could look like. If you love STS9, jam bands, live music culture, or just unfiltered conversations about art, music, and survival, this one is for you. Like, subscribe, and share to keep the pod rolling.

What happens when a planet is full of water—but too hot for oceans? Meet the "steam worlds," exotic exoplanets wrapped in thick water vapor and boiling at thousands of degrees. These strange worlds may be far from habitable, but they're reshaping how scientists think about planets, water, and where life might exist. In this episode of SETI Live, host Beth Johnson talks with Artem Aguichine of the University of California, Santa Cruz, about his new research modeling the interiors and atmospheres of steam worlds—a class of water-rich sub-Neptunes that could dominate our galaxy. With data from the JWST revealing steam signatures on distant planets, these models are helping scientists decode what's really going on beneath the haze. Join us as we explore: • What defines a "steam world" and how it forms • How water behaves under crushing pressure and searing heat • Why JWST's new observations are changing the game • What these discoveries mean for the future search for life beyond Earth

Last week, we walked through the timeline of Troy Galloway's disappearance and the events that unfolded in the days leading up to January 13, 2016. We learned how, after years of building a life and a steady support network in Santa Cruz, California, Troy moved to Sonora with his wife, placing hours of distance between himself and the people who had always been his safety net. Troy was a devoted father to his young son, but the distance made it difficult to maintain that same level of involvement in his life after the move.On January 15, 2016, Troy's mother, Nancy, received a message from his wife telling her that Troy had disappeared two days earlier. Nancy was confused and alarmed by what she was hearing. His wife said Troy had run out of the house, underdressed for the cold, and never returned. After that exchange, Troy was finally reported missing, but a miscommunication between local agencies delayed getting the case to the appropriate investigators and beginning the search for Troy.Over time, pieces of information slowly came together. Neighbors recalled hearing a disturbance at Crystal Falls Lake on the night Troy vanished. Years later, advances in technology enabled investigators to interpret Troy's phone data with greater clarity, suggesting that his phone had been near the lake around the time he disappeared. For a long time, this became the guiding theory: that Troy had somehow ended up in the water.That idea guided the investigation, culminating in an extensive, highly coordinated search effort. Crystal Falls Lake was drained, scanned, and combed through by forensic specialists, dogs, and sonar teams. But when the search turned up no trace of Troy or his belongings, the explanation that had once seemed most likely suddenly stood on shaky ground. If Troy wasn't in the lake, then the story everyone had been leaning on for years no longer fit, and the investigation was forced back to its earliest questions.This week, we're going to dig deeper into what Troy's loved ones learned about his time in Sonora, what they began to uncover about the dynamics within his marriage, and the questions that still haunt Troy's family as they enter the tenth year of searching for answers.If you have any information about the disappearance of Troy Galloway, please contact the Tuolumne County Sheriff's Office at (209) 533-5855.If you have a missing loved one that you would like to have featured on the show, please fill out our case submission form.Follow The Vanished on social media at:FacebookInstagramPatreonSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Animals in dreams always seem to have a special meaningfulness. Today we talk about how dreams of certain animals were viewed at the Asklepian Temple in ancient Greece where people could go to be healed by their dreams. Learn about a modern interpretation of this ancient technique from our guest psychotherapist, mindfulness teacher, and Dream Boat podcast host Laura Payne of the Dream Research Institute in London. A short clip from the show can be found here: After the break we hear from Steve Popp from Santa Cruz with a dream about a series of animals beginning with a moose and ending with a talking lynx. Then we take a question from Max who asks about not just seeing dogs in dreams but being a dog. Finally we take a call from Kathy from Corona for a quick check in. Information about her October Asklepian Dream Retreat in Greece will be up on her webpage in January. From our guest: My name is Laura Payne, and I'm an avid dream lover. I'm a clinical depth psychotherapist, supervisor and lecturer, a mindfulness teacher, and associate of the Dream Research Institute for Studies based in London, England. I present the DreamBoat Podcast for the DRI now in its 7 series, and I'm author of Nine Steps to a Mindful Life without Meditating.

✨ 2º DOMINGO DO ADVENTO | 18h

Broadcast from KSQD, Santa Cruz on 12-04-2025: Dr. Dawn opens with an experimental vaccine that prevents severe allergic reactions by targeting IgE antibodies. The vaccine could eventually replace current monoclonal antibody treatments like omalizumab that require injections every two weeks. She explains how adjuvants work in vaccines as additives that irritate the immune system enough to notice the vaccine target. Aluminum hydroxide is s common adjuvant. Modern vaccines use small pathogen fragments rather than whole organisms, requiring adjuvants to trigger adequate immune response. Dr. Dawn expresses concern about the US Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices reviewing aluminum adjuvants this week. A Danish study of over one million children finding no connection between aluminum with autism and ADHA contradicts RFK,Jr's public claims.She worries that removing aluminum could devastate vaccine effectiveness and children's health, noting that whenever vaccination rates drop, diseases like measles return to native circulation. She recounts pertussis vaccine history—when Japan stopped vaccination due to rare adverse reactions (approximately one death per million doses), they lost about 5,000 children to whooping cough in the first year. The newer acellular vaccine using pathogen fragments plus adjuvants is safer but only lasts 4-5 years versus lifetime immunity from the older whole-cell version, necessitating "cocooning" strategies where everyone contacting newborns must be recently vaccinated. Dr. Dawn describes a vaccine to prevent fentanyl from reaching the brain now starting clinical trials in the Netherlands. It pairs a fentanyl-like molecule with a carrier protein large enough to trigger antibody production. Once primed, the immune system attacks any fentanyl entering the blood, preventing highs and overdoses—potentially helping people in addiction recovery and those accidentally exposed through contaminated drugs. She reports the first documented death from alpha-gal syndrome. Alpha-gal is a meat allergy triggered by Lone Star tick bites; the tick essentially vaccinates humans against the alpha-galactosidase protein found on beef and pork. Cases have increased since 2010 as climate change expands the tick's range northward, yet a 2023 survey found 42% of doctors had never heard of the condition. Dr. Dawn highlights research from Edith Cowan University showing that blood drawn after exercise suppresses cancer cell growth when added to tumor cultures. In breast cancer survivors, plasma from high-intensity interval training or weight lifting caused cancer cells to stop growing or die; blood drawn before exercise had no effect. The key mechanism involves myokines, particularly IL-6, released by contracting muscles. A Stanford study found colon cancer survivors who exercised were 37% less likely to experience recurrence. A caller asks about pig-to-human heart transplants and mask recommendations. Dr. Dawn clarifies that newer xenotransplant pigs have more genes edited to reduce rejection compared to the 2022 case. For masking, she recommends context-dependent use—especially in public restrooms where toilet flushing aerosolizes COVID-containing particles, transportation hubs, and hospitals, noting that COVID vaccination prevents death but not infection or long COVID. She advises the same caller about spacing vaccines because adjuvant loads stack. Most vaccines can be combined safely, but she recommends against pairing COVID and Shingrix vaccines due to their heavy adjuvant content—wait at least ten days between them. She suggests inducing a sweat the night of vaccination through hot baths, saunas, or exercise to reduce adjuvant-related discomfort without diminishing antibody response. Dr. Dawn discusses seasonal affective disorder. She recommends 5,000 units of vitamin D3 and morning light exposure. She suggests that sun avoidance advice may have gone too far. A UK study of 3.36 million people found 12-15% lower mortality with greater UV exposure even accounting for skin cancer risk. A Swedish study following 30,000 women for 20 years found sun-seekers had half the mortality risk. Benefits may involve nitric oxide production lowering blood pressure, with each 1,000 km from the equator correlating with 5 mmHg higher blood pressure. Lack of bright outdoor light also contributes to childhood myopia, with rates exceeding 80% in some Asian cities. Dr. Dawn concludes with Danish microbiologists at Copenhagen's Alchemist restaurant reviving an old Bulgarian practice of fermenting milk with live red wood ants. The resulting yogurt, cheese, and ice cream contain far more beneficial microbes than commercial products, with a complex lemony acidity. Only live ants work, and wild ants may carry parasites dangerous to humans.

This week we are rejoined by media scholar Nolan Higdon to discuss his latest work, “Unmasking Epstein: Power, Blackmail, and the Press's Failures.” We also delve into the increasingly problematic world of Artificial Intelligence, the challenges and threats AI poses, and the importance of critical AI literacy. Next, Mickey speaks to Brown University first year student James Libresco about his latest Dispatch on Media and Politics for Project Censored titled, “A Direct Attack on Freedom of Speech: Trump Takes on Higher Ed.” Libresco addresses media freedom and the student press, as well as the massive pushback to Trump's so-called “Compact for Excellence in Higher Education,” which actually poses major threats to academic freedom. Nolan Higdon is is a political analyst, author, host of The Disinfo Detox Podcast, curator of the Gaslight Gazette, a lecturer at Merrill College and the Education Department at University of California, Santa Cruz, and a Project Censored National Judge. Higdons areas of concentration include critical AI literacy, podcasting, digital culture, news media history and propaganda, and critical media literacy. He is a regular commentator on current affairs for several media networks in the San Francisco Bay Area. All of Higdons work is available at Substack. James Libresco was co-editor in chief of Theogony, his high school paper for the 2024-25 school year, where he covered education, city politics, and breaking news. His work has been published in The Alexandria Times, The Alexandria Gazette Packet and The Zebra, among other outlets. James recently published a Dispatch on Media and Politics for Project Censored on Trump's attacks on higher education and is currently a first year student at Brown University studying political science.   The News That Didn't Make the News. Each week, co-hosts Mickey Huff and Eleanor Goldfield conduct in depth interviews with their guests and offer hard hitting commentary on the key political, social, and economic issues of the day with an emphasis on critical media literacy. The post Project Censored:Media Failures and the Epstein Files, + AI Threats; Trump's Attacks on Higher Education appeared first on KPFA.

Filho de um fotógrafo windsurfista e uma empresária, ele começou a praticar artes marciais aos 5 anos de idade. Aos 10, descobriu a escalada e, aos 12, começou a se aventurar no mountain bike. Aos 16 anos, mudou-se para o Alasca, onde concluiu o ensino médio e acumulou uma boa experiência em esportes de neve. Foi na San Diego State University, durante o curso de International Business, que ele encontrou seu caminho sobre as duas rodas. Integrou a equipe de ciclismo da universidade, participou de provas de triathlon e de mountain bike XC, até encontrar sua verdadeira paixão: o downhill. Na modalidade, competiu nos EUA, Canadá e Europa. Enquanto levava as trilhas a sério, dava os primeiros passos na sua carreira no marketing esportivo e trabalhou para marcas famosas como Reef e Oakley. De volta ao Brasil, passou pela Pepsico e Billabong antes de ingressar para o time da Red Bull, onde prospectou e gerenciou mais de 50 atletas de elite, como Henrique Avancini, Neymar, Pedro Scooby e Carlos Burle. Após quatro anos, deixou a empresa para se dedicar à distribuição das bicicletas Santa Cruz no Brasil. Fez a transição do downhill para o enduro e passou a competir tanto na América Latina quanto no Enduro World Series. Em 2018, decidiu retornar aos EUA para fazer um mestrado em Ciências Estatísticas, estabelecendo residência na Califórnia. Lecionou marketing na Universidade da Califórnia e atuou no PayPal antes de expandir seu negócio no mercado de ciclismo, acrescentando a importação das bicicletas da Factor e Yeti para o Brasil, inaugurando duas lojas no país e uma em Los Angeles, consolidando assim sua paixão, experiência e know-how. Conosco aqui, um empresário e ciclista apaixonado pela vida, pelas trilhas, pelo mar e pela neve. Um homem que dominou a arte de unir o amor pelo esporte à sua profissão, proprietário das lojas 2 Peaks Bikes, o petropolitano André Sanches da Rocha. Inspire-se! Um oferecimento @oakleybr  e @2peaksbikes A 2 Peaks Bikes é a importadora e distribuidora oficial no Brasil da Factor Bikes, Santa Cruz Bikes e de diversas outras marcas e conta com três lojas: Rio de Janeiro, São Paulo e Los Angeles.

Jon Sisk and Matt Lujano's banks couldn't be more different at first appearance — Sisk is a top executive at a community bank in Santa Cruz, California, near the beating heart of America's tech ecosystem, and Lujano leads a bank primarily based in a rural area of western Iowa where farming is dominant. But they share a positive outlook on the role of tech in community banking. As chair and vice chair, respectively, of ABA's Community Bankers Council, they reflected on what it means to be a tech-forward community bank in a podcast following the committee's recent D.C. meeting. Among other topics, they discuss: Forming AI brainstorming groups within banks to facilitate collaborative innovation. The use of generative AI tools to accelerate policy development and exam preparedness. Being ready to move quickly on stablecoins, tokenized deposits and digital assets, even if customers aren't demanding solutions. Good ideas surfaced in conversations among CBC members. Stay tuned for more conversations on tech-forward community banking within the ABA Banking Journal Podcast channel.

Listen to 141 Future Now Show This week the film “The Age of Disclosure” is making waves (on Amazon Prime), especially in our home town of Santa Cruz, also home to Danny Sheehan’s New Paradigm Institute, and his push for governmental opening on the alien/ufo/uap question.  Bobby Wilder was there at the local sceening of The Age of Disclosure, with a first hand report.  Ara, our show’s fav AI, adds much to this discussion as well, connecting many of the ‘dots’ of what’s happening in this arena, and giving us a roadmap for what’s ahead.  What’s happening with Bitcoin may have some folks concerned, but not Bobby! It’s his opinion that it’s time to buy now, when it’s low.  We explore this topic to some extent this week.  In other news, tryptophan was found not just in turkeys this week, but in space, in a pristine return sample from the asteroid Bennu, bringing the tally of protein-building amino acids in the asteroid to 15 out of 20…further supporting the theory that biological life may have been spread by asteroids.. and body fat takes on a new light when considering it as an organ of the body, complete with immune, blood, and neural networks embedded. What does this new take on fat imply?  Stem cells from fat may soon repair spinal injuries, a huge breakthrough! And now Ozempic may be helping many combat addictions to unhealthy food and drugs, like chips and opioids.  But at what cost? We explore the implications..and don’t miss our update on 3I/ATLAS and its newly discovered swarm of..?  Enjoy! This week’s topics

January 13, 2016, was a chilly winter day in Sonora, California. That day, thirty-four-year-old Troy Galloway was reportedly at home with his wife and young daughter when the couple had a disagreement. According to his wife, Troy ran out of the house and into the cold, snowy yard wearing only a t-shirt, jeans, and shoes. Troy never returned, and no one has seen or heard from him since. A couple of days later, Troy's mother, Nancy, who was back home a few hours away in Santa Cruz, received a text from Troy's wife saying that he was missing. Nancy was both shocked and frustrated that she hadn't been notified sooner. At that point, Troy still had not been reported missing, and once he was, a jurisdictional mix-up further delayed search efforts.Since Troy was not reported missing right away, it took time to connect his disappearance to a commotion that neighbors said they heard the night he vanished. The neighbors were concerned enough to report it to law enforcement that evening. However, learning that information didn't bring anyone closer to finding Troy; it only deepened the mystery. If Troy had truly run from the home on foot that night, underdressed for the January weather, where did he go? How did he disappear without a trace? And was that commotion heard by neighbors connected to Troy's disappearance?For nearly a decade, Troy's loved ones have been trying to piece together what clues they have to answer those questions. Today, they're hoping to reach someone who holds the missing piece that could finally explain what happened to Troy Galloway back in January of 2016.If you have any information about the disappearance of Troy Galloway, please contact the Tuolumne Sheriff's Office at (209) 533-5855.If you have a missing loved one that you would like to have featured on the show, please fill out our case submission form.Follow The Vanished on social media at:FacebookInstagramPatreonSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
