For thirteen years, the Smurl family reported being terrorized by invisible forces in their Pennsylvania duplex - entities that threw their German Shepherd against walls, sexually assaulted both Jack and Janet, and somehow knew to hide whenever priests came to investigate. The Catholic Church sent multiple clergy who witnessed nothing, the Warrens recorded hours of supposed evidence, and neighbors threw bricks at the house during the media circus, but no one could definitively prove whether the Smurls were victims of a genuine haunting or something else entirely. Join the DARKNESS SYNDICATE for the ad-free version: https://weirddarkness.com/syndicateTake the WEIRD DARKNESS LISTENER SURVEY and help mold the future of the podcast: https://weirddarkness.com/surveyCHAPTERS & TIME STAMPS (All Times Approximate)…00:00:00.000 = Lead-In00:01:19.246 = Show Open00:03:14.088 = Part One: Foundation Cracks00:13:02.456 = Part Two: The House Knew Their Names00:34:04.296 = Part Three: The Intelligence That Hid From Priests00:55:32.269 = Part Four: The Evidence That Remains01:02:24.920 = Show CloseSOURCES AND RESOURCES FROM THE EPISODE…List of sources at bottom of page: https://weirddarkness.com/smurl-family-conjuring/=====(Over time links may become invalid, disappear, or have different content.

In this chilling episode, we share six first-hand encounters that go far beyond blurry photos or footprints. These are raw, emotional testimonies from ordinary people forever changed by what they witnessed in North America's wild places.A wildlife biologist loses drones and trail cameras to unseen figures in the Cascades. A school bus driver quits after decades on the road when children begin sketching the same figure they all saw in the fog. A teenager finds strange comfort from a massive presence during a family crisis. A retiree in West Virginia is driven from her land by relentless harassment and towering shapes. A Tennessee hunter discovers hidden valleys guarded by something ancient. And a seasoned camper uncovers chilling evidence of mimicry deep in the Boundary Waters.These stories reveal patterns of intelligence, intent, and an ancient presence watching us from the shadows. Some people are merely observed, others warned, and some are forced to leave. Each account challenges our belief that the wilderness is fully known and mapped.This isn't about proving Bigfoot exists—it's about listening to those whose lives were altered by the impossible.Whether you believe or doubt, these encounters will make you rethink that primal feeling of being watched in the woods.Turn off the lights, put on your headphones, and prepare to confront the unknown.Get Our FREE NewsletterGet Brian's Books Leave Us A VoicemailVisit Our WebsiteSupport Our SponsorsBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/sasquatch-odyssey--4839697/support.

We bring you this week's episode from Los Angeles and New York City, as we prepare for tomorrow's performance of the OCTOBER 7 play at Bowdoin College in Maine.We traveled to Israel after that terrible day and interviewed survivors, the bereaved and the heroes who saved lives, and brought their testimony to the world in the form of a verbatim play.We are nervous, but excited. It's a dangerous time to bring the truth to College Campuses. And just at the weekend there were threats against a Bowdoin College vigil organised to honor Charlie Kirk. We are ramping up security for the play- we are taking every precaution to ensure the safety of attendees but the bad people who walk among us want to shut us up. They want to prevent you from hearing the truth. We are determined to bring the truth to Bowdoin and colleges across the US. It is the least we can do to honor Charlie Kirk after he was assassinated while doing God's work, bringing the truth to university campuses that preach wokeness and toxic, left-wing ideologies. We are heartbroken for his wife who has been left without a husband and their children who are now without a father. This week we talk about why Charlie Kirk was so effective and why his legacy will always continue, even in the face of danger. You can still come and support the OCTOBER 7 play at Bowdoin. If you know anyone in the area please send them the link below to register. It has been very disturbing to see the response of the many on the hateful left to Charlie's assasination. Particularly disturbing was the number of teachers and so-called educators who openly celebrated his death. We expose them all. It is shocking that they have influence on our children. Phelim also reveals why they are celebrating. He has seen it all before, growing up during the Northern Ireland troubles. You can read the truth about these people through the link below.And we tell you as journalists how to handle breaking news stories such as Charlie's murder - what to watch for and how to untangle the truth from the errors and lies. You can read Phelim's substack on the issue (linked below).  As we mentioned OCTOBER 7 the play is coming to Bowdoin College in Maine tomorrow. The play is verbatim with no editorializing and no spin, presented in an American university where Hamas-sympathizing radicals have been intimidating students who don't agree with them. Please register to attend the play at October7Bowdoin.com, or by clicking the link below. We have over 600 seats to fill up and look forward to seeing you at Pickard Theater at 7:30 pm, doors open at 7:00 pm. And please remember that we are a non-profit organization so please go to unreportedstorysociety.com and give what you can so that we can continue to bring our special projects like the play, and our weekly podcast, to you.

Every few months, the discourse turns to comics journalism. What is it? What's its value? Does it even exist anymore? Of course, if you read SKTCHD or listen to Off Panel every week, these questions are easy to answer. For years, David Harper has been our go-to source for what's happening within the comics industry, and due to recent events in his own life, he's upped his game and committed to comics journalism in a fashion he previously has not. Can the industry sustain him? That all depends on us. This week, we chat with David Harper about his total immersion into SKTCHD/Off Panel. We confront him about his pivot to video, the state of comics journalism, and how he ignores the recurring Chicken Little screams of “The sky is falling.” It's not all so dire, though. We also discuss his ideal comic book shop and the books he's absolutely loving in 2025. Stories and storytellers are vital to human existence, but for various, always frustrating, reasons, we must continually be reminded of this. You, dear listener, are already fighting the good fight, but how do we get others to join us? Share, baby, share. Below you'll find links not only to David Harper's good work, but also to the good work of others working within the field of comics journalism. Give them your clicks, give them your eyes, and maybe, just maybe, if you can afford to do so, give them your dollars.

In today's episode Eoin chats with Jason Ziobrowski (Chef Jay Z).Today's guest brings flavor, passion, and purpose to everything he does. Jason Ziobrowski — or as many know him, Chef Jay-Z — has spent nearly two decades as a corporate R&D chef, creating recipes and nutrition programs for hospitals, patients, and communities. His mission? To influence people positively through food and to help change the American palate, one dish at a time.But behind the chef's coat is a deeply personal journey. After years of being told he was simply ‘pre-diabetic,' Jason was finally diagnosed in 2020 with type 1.5 diabetes. At the time, his fasting sugars were nearly 22.2mmol/L (400mg/dL), and his A1C hit 14.Instead of giving up, Jason took charge. He overhauled his lifestyle cold turkey, dropping his fasting sugars down into a healthy range and transforming not just his health, but his outlook on life.Today, Chef Jay-Z is thriving with type 1, using technology like the Medtronic pump, leaning on his family, and continuing to inspire others through food, education, and his own story of resilience. From hospital kitchens to his own blood sugar battles, Jason has learned that lifestyle change isn't just necessary — it can be one of the best things to ever happen to you.As always, be sure to rate, comment, subscribe and share.

How can nonprofits tell powerful, compelling stories without compromising the dignity of the people they serve?In this episode of Nonprofit Nation, I welcome Carly Euler, Marketing Director at MemoryFox and creator of the Ethical Storytelling Report. With a rich background in fundraising, marketing, and communications across organizations like the Breast Cancer Coalition of Rochester and the BOMA Project, Carly has seen firsthand how storytelling can both uplift and unintentionally harm.We dive into Carly's recent article, “I Wish Someone Would Have Told Me: Stories Can Be Ethical & Still Raise Funds,” and unpack the fundraising industry's overreliance on trauma-driven narratives. Carly shares a powerful personal moment that reshaped how she approaches storytelling, and offers tangible strategies for nonprofit professionals who want to center consent, agency, and dignity while still driving results.

Click here now to access the tool > ‍ Rethinking Growth: How to Scale Without Sacrifice Have you ever considered scaling to seven figures and thought: ‘I couldn't do that,' or ‘That would cost me too much?'  ‍ More hours. More stress. More sacrifice. ‍ It's this belief that keeps so many women playing small. They remain convinced that bigger growth must come at the expense of their freedom, their family, or their wellbeing. ‍ But Fabienne Fredrickson, founder of Boldheart and author of The Leveraged Business believes differently.  ‍ In this episode of The Brilliant Business Book Festival, she shares how female entrepreneurs can move from six to seven figures with ease — not by working harder, but by leveraging smarter. ‍ This episode is a must-listen if you've ever dreamed of expanding your business, but worried it would mean losing yourself in the process. ‍ ‍ Prefer to WATCH? ‍https://www.youtube.com/@melittacampbell  ‍ “To grow, you don't need to work more — you need to work less, and leverage more.” – Fabienne Fredrickson ‍ The Feminine Way to Scale When Fabienne first left corporate, she quickly realised that the typical “success formulas” didn't fit. The traditional models — hustle harder, outwork the competition, close sales with rigid scripts — felt heavy, masculine, and misaligned. ‍ And yet, she also knew that ignoring growth wasn't an option. So she chose a different path. ‍ Instead of chasing every tactic, Fabienne focused on what truly worked, cutting away the 80% that drained time and energy. Over time, she developed a distinctly feminine way of scaling — one that honours rest, values alignment, and creates space for life outside of business. ‍‍ The Eight Leverage Activators for Sustainable Growth Her book outlines eight “activators” that, like switches in a dark room, bring clarity and momentum as you flip them on. These are:  ‍ 1. Leverage Your Team – Build and trust a team that takes work off your plate so you can focus on growth rather than doing everything yourself. 2. Leverage Your Systems – Put in place documented processes so the business can run smoothly even when you're not directly involved. 3. Leverage Your Time – Be strategic about how you spend your hours, limiting low-value work and protecting time for high-impact tasks. 4. Leverage Your Business Model – Shift from doing everything yourself to one-to-many models or other scalable designs so revenue isn't tightly tied to your hours. 5. Leverage Your Marketing – Build omnipresent, automated or semi-automated marketing so leads come without you personally doing every outreach. 6. Leverage Your Accountability – Create external structures or supports (mentors, peers, boards etc.) that help keep you on track and responsible for progress. 7. Leverage Your Differentiation – Clarify what makes you unique and position that strongly so you attract clients who value you, not just any client. 8. Leverage Your Lifestyle – Design your business around the life you want rather than letting business demands dictate your personal time. The common lesson between these activators is that sustainable growth happens when you work less, but smarter, and when you trust others (and yourself) to hold more. ‍ ‍ “Scaling is not about hustle; it's about shifting your identity to receive more with ease.” – Fabienne Fredrickson ‍ ‍ Mindset Before Strategy Fabienne highlighted that that business growth begins with identity, not tactics. The mindset that carries you to six figures will not take you to seven. To step into that next level, you need to: Believe it's possible for you, not just for others. Strengthen your capacity to receive more. Let go of hyper-independence and embrace support. And the fastest way to build that belief? Surround yourself with women who've already done it. Evidence and community reshape what you see as possible — and allow you to claim more for yourself. ‍ Redefining Ambition Scaling doesn't mean sacrificing. It means designing a business that sustains you instead of drains you. A business where evenings and weekends are yours. A business where freedom and growth go hand in hand. As Fabienne reminds us, when you leverage wisely and shift your mindset, expansion can feel natural, aligned, and deeply nourishing. If you've ever secretly thought, “I'd love to reach seven figures, but not at the cost of my life,” in this episode, Fabienne shows you a different way forward. A Final Thought to Reflect On Scaling isn't about chasing more — it's about choosing differently. The moment you stop trying to do everything and start focusing on the few things that truly move the needle, your business (and your life) begin to expand. So, instead of asking “How much harder do I need to work?” try asking “How much more can I allow?” Because the future you're dreaming of doesn't require more sacrifice. It requires more space, more trust, and more you. ‍ ‍ Want to explore what this could look like for you? ‍Learn more about the ways you can work with Melitta Campbell to uncover your Value Sweet Spot to market, sell and grow your business confidently, and always on your terms.

Tobin kicks things off front and center at GM Bill Zito's press conference—emotions run high as he jokes he just wanted to hug him. Leroy sparks a thoughtful debate about whether the Panthers' recent success is tied to a lack of pressure, just before Eetu Luostarinen joins to talk offseason fun, sharing the Stanley Cup with Finland (including a nod to the Finnish President), and easing back into hockey. Newcomer Jeff Petry shares his excitement about joining the back-to-back champs, and Jonah Gadjovich talks about his reputation as a fighter—despite claiming he's really just a chill guy. Hour two keeps it rolling with Jesper Boqvist on team chemistry and bulking up in the offseason, while Tua Tagovailoa's viral comments about Josh Allen lead to a mini-meltdown from Leroy. Mackie Samoskevich shares his Cup experience and new jersey number, and Captain Aleksander Barkov reflects on leadership, going viral with Sam Reinhart, and his special moments with the Cup. In Hour three, the gang reacts to Matthew Tkachuk's injury and Bill Zito's December return timeline, while Tobin spirals into college concession stand stories and rage over Zach Sieler ruining his sack bet. Leroy, now fully hangry, lashes out as they preview Dolphins vs. Bills and react to Tua's deep-ball comments. The final hour brings a heated debate about whether Sergei Bobrovsky is past his prime, more Dolphins breakdown, and a heartfelt moment as Tobin opens up about a rough day with his daughter—prompting Jfig and Brittney to urge a make-good. The show wraps with a special shoutout to the Florida Panthers and their incredible media team for an unforgettable day.

Start Your Transformation Now  In this episode of the Transform Your Life from the Inside Out podcast, Jim Fortin reveals a trait that rarely makes the “top 20 lists” of success skills but is, in reality, a game-changer: resourcefulness. Through powerful stories—from Tom Hanks' Castaway to entrepreneurs like Steve Jobs, Jeff Bezos, and Susie Batiz—Jim shows how resourcefulness, not resources, is what separates those who thrive from those who stay stuck.  Many people wait for the “perfect time” or for more money, connections, or opportunities to arrive. Jim challenges that mindset by making it clear: your life doesn't change when you get more resources; it changes when you choose to become more resourceful. Fear, excuses, and victimhood hold us back, but resourcefulness makes growth inevitable.  If you've ever felt like you don't have what it takes to move forward, this episode will give you the clarity and inspiration to figure it out, break free from resignation, and finally create what you want.  What You'll Discover in This Episode:  Why Resourcefulness Matters More Than Resources (06:17) Jim defines resourcefulness and explains why it is the foundation of real success.  Stories of Resourceful Entrepreneurs (08:00) How companies like Apple, Amazon, Subway, and Ring started with almost nothing but became billion-dollar brands.  The Role of Fear and Victim Mentality (14:29) Why fear keeps you powerless and why shifting to resourcefulness transforms everything.  Settling vs. Creating (18:00) How “agreeing” to your circumstances keeps you stuck—and how to stop settling.  The Subconscious Mind as a Tool (21:00) How engaging your subconscious mind can unlock answers and creative solutions.  Resourcefulness in Action (22:00) Jim's personal stories of becoming resourceful to create multimillion-dollar outcomes.  Listen, apply, and enjoy!  Transformational Takeaway  Resourcefulness is more important than resources. If you want more in life, you must figure it out, get creative, and choose action over excuses. If you refuse to become resourceful, you are in silent agreement with your current reality. The truth stings, but freedom comes when you own it—and then act.    Let's Connect:  Instagram | Facebook | YouTube | LinkedIn  LIKED THE EPISODE?  If you're the kind of person who likes to help others, then share this with your friends and family.

Patrick unpacks listener questions about why bishops can’t marry, offers candid advice on dealing with awkward moral conversations at family events, and doesn’t shy away from what he thinks about clapping or disruptions in church. He clarifies the real story behind Adam and Eve’s children, addresses concerns about hypnotism and teens with cell phones, and draws sharp lines on what should, and shouldn’t, be open to discussion in modern classrooms. Stories, tough calls, and unexpected perspectives roll in rapid succession. Eva (email) - Can you talk today about the first reading from Timothy and the bishop being married? I mean, I know Deacons can be married currently, but the bishop? (01:03) Steve - How did the world get populated by Adam and Eve? Did Cain have children with his siblings? (12:05) All of the Charlie Kirk related audio we’ve played on the show has been posted in one spot on Facebook and X (21:02) Ellie (email) - Several members of the congregation responded vocally to what the priest was saying in his homily. For instance, when the priest asked a rhetorical question, some of the congregants would loudly answer the question. Not only that, but some of the parishioners waved their hands in the air. (25:37) Ruben (email) – Is the Vatican having a LGBQT event? Michael (email) - Do you really believe that today, in the 21st century, a man with a hunting rifle, assault rifle or any kind of firearm could stand a chance against the might of the United States military? (30:03) Heberto (email) - Is hypnotism a sin? (33:23) John (email) – I don’t understand how X (twitter) works (38:45) Audio: Teacher training model for school district in Naperville references topics that are closed for discussion because they are “settled” by social scientists, and students should not be allowed to discuss any opposing views in the classroom. For example, global warning and systemic racism have already been settled per this clip and are not open to discussion on if it exists but only what to do about it. (41:22) Jacob (14-years-old) - When should I get a smart phone? (47:09)

Yohei Yamada reunites boaters with valuables they've dropped into the lake — from cellphones to wedding rings and Rolex watches. In the water is also where he is finding himself again.Host - Iridian FierroReporter - Mack LiedermanRead More Here Want to donate to our non-profit newsroom? CLICK HEREWho we areBlock Club Chicago is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit news organization dedicated to delivering reliable, relevant and nonpartisan coverage of Chicago's diverse neighborhoods. We believe all neighborhoods deserve to be covered in a meaningful way.We amplify positive stories, cover development and local school council meetings and serve as watchdogs in neighborhoods often ostracized by traditional news media.Ground-level coverageOur neighborhood-based reporters don't parachute in once to cover a story. They are in the neighborhoods they cover every day building relationships over time with neighbors. We believe this ground-level approach not only builds community but leads to a more accurate portrayal of a neighborhood.Stories that matter to you — every daySince our launch five years ago, we've published more than 25,000 stories from the neighborhoods, covered hundreds of community meetings and send daily and neighborhood newsletters to more than 130,000 Chicagoans. We've built this loyalty by proving to folks we are not only covering their neighborhoods, we are a part of them. Some of us have internalized the national media's narrative of a broken Chicago. We aim to change that by celebrating our neighborhoods and chronicling the resilience of the people who fight every day to make Chicago a better place for all.

Sometimes, on occasions that are getting rarer and rarer, Instagram can be a place of great discoveries, and Becky Barnicoat was one of those for me. A cartoonist published by The New Yorker, Grazia, The New Statesman, The Guardian, BuzzFeed, New York Magazine, Private Eye and Netflix, she had recently published her deeply funny and touching graphic memoir “Cry When the Baby Cries”. For years, her observations of daily life and motherhood made me burst out laughing (often when I needed it the most). So join me as I finally get to laugh together with Becky! Hear her inspiring story about becoming a succesful cartoonist after years of hearing she wasn't good enough, and was dreaming of a job that didn't exist. And learn wise lessons from her and her mom Catherina about motherhood being a source the fulfilment, about creating a warm home through routine and light, about teaching our duaghters through our stories, and breaking generational cycles. To learn more about Becky, her work, and her new book, visit her website here, or her Instagram profile here.  Subscribe to Ana's new "Mama Loves…” newsletter here.  To contact Ana, to be a guest, or suggest a guest, please send your mail to: info@thankyoumama.net For more about “Thank You, Mama", please visit: http://www.thankyoumama.net Connect with Ana on social media: https://www.instagram.com/anatajder/ https://www.facebook.com/ana.tajder    

There is no place on Earth that God is not working. Even in authoritarian regimes that make following Christ illegal, He still moves. Iran is one of those countries. While we hear about Iran pretty regularly in the news, we don't typically hear about what God is doing through His Spirit and in His Church there. Today we're joined by the CEO of Transform Iran, Lana Silk.

In small churches, titles can build invisible walls—like pastors' wives on one side, “regular” women on the other. Or ministry leaders here, and occasional volunteers over there. But those labels don't tell the whole story, and they often keep us from the deep, honest community we long for. In this episode, Kristen Joy Humiston and I share from both sides of the wall, uncovering how much more we have in common than what separates us.What you'll hear in this episode:How titles like “pastor's wife” or “leader” can unintentionally create distanceWhy women in small churches often feel divided (and how to bridge the gap)Stories from both sides: living with a title and living without oneHow shared struggles (loneliness, pressure, expectations) prove we're not so different after allWhat it could look like if we ditched the labels and built friendships that actually lastConnect with Kristen Joy Humiston:www.kristenjoycoaching.com Get your FREE ticket for the Lead Well for Women in Small Churches Conference: www.smallchurchsummits.comJoin our free Facebook Community: www.facebook.com/groups/smallchurchministryRate, Review, & Follow Laurie on Apple Podcasts"I love Laurie and The Small Church Ministry Podcast!!"

Discover the sweeping story of how Indigenous, European, and African traditions intertwined to form an entirely new cuisine, with over 90 recipes for the modern home cook—from the James Beard Cookbook Hall of Famer and star of the Netflix docuseries High on the Hog. One of our preeminent culinary historians, Dr. Jessica B. Harris has conducted decades of research throughout the Americas, the Caribbean, and Africa. In this telling of the origins of American food, though, she gets more personal. As heritage is history, she intertwines the larger sweeping past with stories and recipes from friends she's made over the years—people whose family dishes go back to the crucial era when Native peoples encountered Europeans and the enslaved Africans they brought with them. Through this mix, we learn that Clear Broth Clam Chowder has both Indigenous and European roots; the same, too, with Enchiladas Suizas, tomatillo-smothered tortillas made “Swiss” with cheese and dairy; and that the hallmarks of African American food through the centuries have been evolution based on region, migration, and innovation, resulting in classics like Red Beans and Rice and Peach Bread Pudding Cupcakes with Bourbon Glaze. With recipes ranging from everyday meals to festive spreads, Braided Heritage: Recipes and Stories on the Origin of American Cuisine (Clarkson Potter, 2025) offers a new, in-depth, delicious look at American culinary history.
