Abomination, Red Eyes & Shadows of Dead ChildrenEpisode 443 | July 29, 2025 EPISODE HIGHLIGHTS...“For six months, it was like living in a horror film. Things flew off shelves, and electronic devices malfunctioned constantly. My car failed without explanation. Thick, black sludge bubbled up from the sinks and bathtub. I began hearing voices…”“Then I opened my eyes and I saw them; the dead children. Around thirty shadows, sitting all around us, on the benches. Toddlers, babes in arms of older kids and even teenagers, all sitting, silent, see -through, grey, motionless.”(For a full transcript, visit paranormalmysteriespodcast.com/episodes)INFO & CONTACT...To learn more about the show, or to share your experience, please visit paranormalmysteriespodcast.com.

Here are the creepiest true crime stories from all around the world currently going down.

In this episode, Kimberley Quinlan breaks down the subtle but crucial differences between OCD, ARFID, orthorexia, and eating disorders—and how understanding these distinctions can lead to more effective, compassionate treatment. What you'll learn in this episode: Why the function behind food-related anxiety matters more than the behavior itself  How OCD, ARFID, and orthorexia can look similar—but require very different treatment approaches  What exposure therapy looks like for each condition (and why it must be values-led)  The unique role disgust plays in ARFID and how to gently work through it  How to involve family members in the recovery process without reinforcing avoidance  Why healing doesn't mean perfection—and how to measure progress with compassion

An FBI agent with an odd connection to a serial killer discovers cryptic clues to a pattern of murders that hits close to him.Longlegs is successful in blending a true crime vibe with the occult and is overshadowed by the creepy and unsettling performance of Nicolas Cage. The film had great marketing efforts to really build up tension and create that ominous mystery that leaves the viewer haunted by the presence and evil depicted by the murders in the movie. Maika Monroe has a standout performance in her effort as the FBI agent assigned to the murders that are spanning through decades. While Longlegs is a movie that will work for some, it may not land the same way for others, but certainly was shot and acted very well.

Tonight's guest had his encounter about two months ago. He and his wife were driving home from a casino and it was very late. They didn't have any reason to think their trip home would be any different than all the prior times they'd headed home, late at night, on any of the prior trips they'd taken. This night would be different, however. What was waiting for them was something that would change the way he looks at the world around him, forever. He never would have believed anything like what he saw could have been extant. Seeing is believing, though. Now, not only does he believe in the existence of Dogmen, he knows they exist now.MY NEW DOGMAN PODCAST!My new podcast is called "Dogman Tales.” It features fictional stories about Dogmen and people who have experiences with them.

This week, in Breckenridge, Colorado, a twisted story begins with 2 young women, disappearing, on a cold, snowy night. On the sam e night, a man is miraculously rescued from a snowy mountain pass, when a passing airliner sees his headlights, down below. Police initially blame one of the women's husband, since everything he did looked suspicious, but eventually a lone orange sock found near a body, links both murders, and helps to reveal the true killer!!   Along the way, we find out that 13 pound gold nuggets exist, that just because a man tells you where a body may be, and when it will be found, doesn't mean he's the murderer, and that you should never throw out any garbage.

In today's episode, we cover Fireworks at the Fed President Trump confronts Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell over a $2.5 billion HQ renovation and accuses him of intentionally keeping interest rates high to hurt the economy. New analysis from Bloomberg suggests the Fed's economic rationale may be flawed. Ghislaine Maxwell's DOJ Meeting For the first time, Maxwell sits down with federal prosecutors to discuss Jeffrey Epstein's trafficking network. The DOJ is probing whether she'll name names or offer new evidence on high-profile abusers. Chinese Hack Hits U.S. Nuclear Systems China-linked hackers exploit a Microsoft SharePoint vulnerability to breach federal agencies, including the National Nuclear Security Administration. The fallout raises alarm over Microsoft's security practices and Pentagon contractor policies. EV Charging Boondoggle A $7.5 billion Biden-era program has produced just 68 upgraded gas stations with EV chargers. The GAO blasts the rollout as lacking accountability, and Trump halts another $6 billion, though legal battles may force his hand. U.S. Lags in Drone Warfare The U.S. military hypes a grenade-dropping drone already used by terrorists a decade ago. Meanwhile, Ukraine and Russia churn out cheap drones at scale, leaving America struggling to catch up in the evolving drone battlefield. China's Humanoid Robots Work Nonstop A Chinese company unveils a self-charging humanoid robot capable of continuous labor. While impressive, it signals a coming clash between automation and the global workforce, especially in manufacturing and logistics. Trump Visits Scotland for Trade Talks The president travels to his ancestral homeland for meetings with the UK Prime Minister. Trade is on the table as markets seek clarity about Trump's call to "refine" the current deal. Australia Lifts U.S. Beef Ban After decades of restrictions tied to Mad Cow concerns, Canberra agrees to ease limits on U.S. beef imports. While modest, it marks another Trump win in loosening global ag trade barriers. South Korea's Birth Rate Rebound Thanks to aggressive tax incentives, parental leave, and cultural pride, South Korea sees a record baby boom, the highest since 1981, suggesting a national strategy beyond immigration to solve demographic decline. China Illegally Acquires U.S. AI Chips Despite tightened export controls, Beijing obtains banned Nvidia chips through black market resales. U.S. firms deny direct involvement, but the trade underscores China's relentless push for AI dominance. Europe Still Buys Russian Energy Despite claims of cutting ties, EU nations continue importing $26 billion in Russian oil and gas annually, mainly through pipelines, propping up Moscow's economy even amid war. Undersea Resource Race Heats Up The U.S. and China compete for deep-sea mining rights in the Pacific. Trump plans to bypass a UN agency to accelerate extraction, while environmentalists and China push back on Texas- and California-based ventures.

The 2025 Social Security Trustees Report is out and the news is bleak. This episode of the Power of Zero Show looks at the potential repercussions if nothing changes by 2033. If things don't improve, Social Security will face a cash flow deficit that triggers a 23% across-the-board benefit cut - and that's one year earlier than predicted. But that's not all… in fact, it gets far worse, says host David McKnight. The system is already $72.8 trillion in the red, an unfunded liability that's twice the size of the national debt and $10 trillion worse than 2024. This is by no means a temporary funding glitch, it's a permanent structural crisis. The first finding of the 2025 Social Security Trustees Report is that the Trust Fund goes insolvent a year earlier than anticipated in last year's report. And there's no wiggle room: Absent intervention on the part of Congress, benefits will drop automatically by 23% for all recipients. The next noteworthy aspect is the program's unfunded obligations, the present value of future benefits not covered by future taxes. That gap is a staggering $72.8 trillion, which is $10 trillion more compared to 2024. The cause for this $10 trillion jump? The removal of some pension offsets and benefit boosting by last year's Social Security Fairness Act… The final revelation of the report  is that trustees chose to focus on the 75-year deficit and ignored the infinite horizon that is so relevant in a pay-as-you-go system. The main tool to try to change the status quo and fix the issue is either cutting benefits, raising taxes, or some combination of the two. David addresses all three scenarios. The first one revolves around Congress permanently okaying a 30% across-the-board cut starting today - alternatively, they could wait until 2033 and implement a 23% cut by default. The second scenario sees an increase of the Social Security's FICA payroll tax from 12.4% to 17.6%. Thirdly, a combination of smaller tax increases and moderate benefit cuts. David touches upon the possible consequences of not addressing these issues immediately. The 1983 Greenspan Commission only patched half of the long-term hole in Social Security, leading to the problem being 2.5 times bigger today and requiring even more aggressive solutions to create a permanent fix. David explains that, if you count all the government's off-the-book promises, Medicare, defense, debt service, the fiscal gap is around 7% of GDP. That translates to the country having a fiscal shortfall year in and year out of 7% of GDP FOREVER. How bad is the situation? "You'd have to fire every federal employee, cancel every NASA mission, basically shut everything down… and you still wouldn't plug in the hole in our long-term fiscal outlook," says David. David is very clear on what's needed: Major structural reform to healthcare entitlements, taxes and benefits. David shares two things to consider before you decide to draw your Social Security benefits early. A quote by Dr. Larry Kotlikoff highlights the fact that taking benefits early won't protect you from reduced benefits later, and that the reduction could indeed be less for those who waited in order to provide equity with those who collected early. David recommends saving as much as you can so that you can compensate for any future cuts to Social Security, as well as modeling multiple scenarios (drawing now vs. drawing later), keeping an eye on Congress and the news, and to focus on other risks your retirement may face - think longevity risk and tax rate risk, for instance. In conclusion: notwithstanding all that bad news from an actuarial standpoint, it still makes sense to push off Social Security just as long as you can.     Mentioned in this episode: David's national bestselling book: The Guru Gap: How America's Financial Gurus Are Leading You Astray, and How to Get Back on Track DavidMcKnight.com DavidMcKnightBooks.com PowerOfZero.com (free video series) @mcknightandco on Twitter  @davidcmcknight on Instagram David McKnight on YouTube Get David's Tax-free Tool Kit at taxfreetoolkit.com 1983 Greenspan Commission 2025 Social Security Trustees Report Dr. Laurence “Larry” Kotlikoff

Tonight's guest, Sabrina Sparks, got an early start, when it came to her fascination with Sasquatch. That's due, in large part, to her dad. You see, Sabrina's dad used to tell her stories about Sasquatch and watch Bigfoot movies with her. Little did she know that, years down the road, she'd go on to actually see a Sasquatch with her own eyes.On tonight's show, Sabrina's going to talk about the details behind her sighting and share other Sasquatch related experiences she's had. We hope you'll tune in and listen to her do that.If you've had a Sasquatch sighting and would like to be a guest on the show, please go to BigfootEyewitness.com and let me know.

In this chilling episode, we dive into real stories from former campers who encountered the unexplainable and the all too real. Hear the tale of a group of kids who found themselves stalked in the woods by someone—or something—watching from the tree, strange creatures prowling the a campground, and in one remote campsite, strange beings appeared just on the edge of the firelight. Are they ghosts, lost souls, or something far more sinister? Gather around the fire… and don't look behind you. These are the true scary stories of summer camp.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/uncle-joshs-true-scary-stories--1977911/support.

Specifically, his early works Six Figures Getting Sick (Six Times); The Alphabet; The Grandmother; The Amputee; The Cowboy and the Frenchman; and Lumiere, or Premonitions Following an Evil Deed.In this brisk, energetic episode, we debate the value of these early works and their influence on things we would see in his later films.

This week, in Coldwater, Michigan, a wild murder story starts with two responsible, educated people, starting a family. The marriage ends in a bitter divorce, that one of them just couldn't handle. After a violent scene, in the home, this man carries his wife to his van, and disappears. A story on "Unsolved Mysteries" sends him racing into the night, but he takes police on a chase, leading to huge confrontation. It's all so crazy, that it inspires a horror movie!!   Along the way, we find out that there isn't a whole lot to do at an Apple Festival, that it's never a good day, when you see yourself on Unsolved Mysteries, and that you know that you're really creepy, when a horror movie is based on your actions!!   New episodes, every Wednesday & Friday nights!!   Donate at patreon.com/crimeinsports or at paypal.com and use our email: crimeinsports@gmail.com Go to shutupandgivememurder.com for all things Small Town Murder, Crime In Sports & Your Stupid Opinions!   Follow us on... instagram.com/smalltownmurder facebook.com/smalltownpod   Also, check out James & Jimmie's other shows, Crime In Sports & Your Stupid Opinions on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you listen to podcasts!!

This week, in New Britain, Connecticut, what starts out as a missing woman, who police assmue was killed by her dirtbag boyfriend, turns into a massive investigation, that has nothing to do with that boyfriend. They uncover seven bodies, and they are linked to a man, who lives in his van, which he calls "the murder mobile". He eventually tells all his sick secrets, incling how he planted "seeds" in his "murder garden"!!   Along the way, we find out that when crime is up, just rename a street "Little Poland", that if you don't want to be considered a serial killer, you probably shouldn't give yourself a killer's nickname, and that no matter how many times you say you don't like murder, if you kill 7 people, you like murder!!   New episodes, every Wednesday & Friday nights!!   Donate at patreon.com/crimeinsports or at paypal.com and use our email: crimeinsports@gmail.com Go to shutupandgivememurder.com for all things Small Town Murder, Crime In Sports & Your Stupid Opinions!   Follow us on... instagram.com/smalltownmurder facebook.com/smalltownpod   Also, check out James & Jimmie's other shows, Crime In Sports & Your Stupid Opinions on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you listen to podcasts!!
