Podcasts about TaskRabbit

In the early morning hours of June 6, 1996, a frantic 911 call came in from a quiet neighborhood in Rowlett, Texas. On the line was 26-year-old Darlie Routier, who said she and her sons had been stabbed by an intruder while they slept in the downstairs family room. When first responders arrived, they found a horrific scene—six-year-old Devon and five-year-old Damon lying on the floor with multiple stab wounds, while Darlie was walking around, bleeding from several knife injuries of her own. As officers cleared the house and paramedics worked to save the victims, Darlie repeated the same story: a man in dark clothing had come into the family room, stabbed her and her children, then fled through the garage—leaving the knife behind. But as investigators began to process the scene and piece together what had unfolded in the Routier home, a new set of questions emerged—about Darlie's version of events, the physical evidence, and what she did—and didn't do—after the attack.

After wildly successful stints at Google, as CEO of Taskrabbit, and on prominent boards, Stacy Brown-Philpot decided it was time to start her own venture capital fund. She talks with host Jeff Berman about how she raised $172 million for Cherryrock Capital, why she's focusing on underinvested founders, and how she owes it all to a six-day silent retreat.Read a transcript of this episode: https://mastersofscale.comSubscribe to the Masters of Scale weekly newsletter: https://mastersofscale.com/subscribeSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Matt and Alexa Fraser step Behind The Rope. New parents to their second son, Psychic Medium, NYT Best Selling Author and former E! Reality TV stars. Now onto what everyone wants to talk about, The Real Housewives of Rhode Island. Providence, RI natives, Alexa (and Matt) were contacted to star in RHORI. They spill the tea on the casting process, production, current rumored chosen cast and more explaining all the various reasons why they decided to turn the project down. They discuss Caroline Manzo's involvement in their “no” decision, Dolores Catania's true ties to RI, Andy's “very Italian” comments, Teresa Giudice and whether, as local boots on the RI ground, RHORI will in fact replace the still very much on pause RHONJ.  @meetmattfraser @alexafraserofficial @behindvelvetrope @davidyontef BONUS & AD FREE EPISODES Available at - ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.patreon.com/behindthevelvetrope⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠  BROUGHT TO YOU BY: TASK RABBIT - ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠taskrabbit.com⁠ (Tackle Your To-Do List Today & Get 15% Off Using Promo Code INSIDERS on Taskrabbit.com or On The Task Rabbit App)  BOLL & BRANCH - ⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠bollandbranch.com/velvetrope⁠⁠⁠⁠ (Get 15% Off Plus Free Shipping On Your First Set Of The Most Comfortable Sheets) WARBY PARKER - ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.warbyparker.com/velvet⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ (Try On Any Pair of Glasses Virtually of Visit One of Their Over 270 Locations) DELETEME - (Get 20% Off By Texting VELVET to 64000 - To Take Control Of Your Data & Keep Your Private Life Private) TRUDIAGNOSTIC - ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.trudiagnostic.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ (Use Code VELVET To Find Out The “Real” Age Of Your Body) RO - ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ro.co/velvet⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ (For Prescription Compounded GLP-1s and Your Free Insurance Check) MOOD - ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.mood.com/velvet ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠(20% Off With Code Velvet on Federally Legal THC Shipped Right To Your Door) PROGRESSIVE - ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.progressive.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ (Visit Progressive.com To See If You Could Save On Car Insurance) ADVERTISING INQUIRIES - Please contact ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠David@advertising-execs.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ MERCH Available at - ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.teepublic.com/stores/behind-the-velvet-rope?ref_id=13198⁠ Learn more about your ad choices.

Ever since the announcement that Shahs of Sunset will be returning to Bravo, along with Ladies of London, many stories have been spilled as far as what we can expect when Reza, MJ and GG return to our TVs. Today we separate fact from fiction regarding their return and what we can expect when this Valley style show drops. Speaking of The Valley, Jax moves closer to the point of no return by the day and Brittany seems to be enjoying it a little too much. Speaking of MJ, her chump feud with Jeff Lewis over Chump Con takes an interesting turn and new facts arise regarding Sonja Morgan's well being. Everyone's favorite chumps, Patrik and Pol, are back to help us make sense of it all. @patriksimpson @polatteu @behindvelvetrope @davidyontef BONUS & AD FREE EPISODES Available at - ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.patreon.com/behindthevelvetrope⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠  BROUGHT TO YOU BY: TASK RABBIT - ⁠⁠⁠⁠taskrabbit.com (Tackle Your To-Do List Today & Get 15% Off Using Promo Code INSIDERS on Taskrabbit.com or On The Task Rabbit App)  BOLL & BRANCH - ⁠⁠ ⁠⁠bollandbranch.com/velvetrope⁠⁠⁠ (Get 15% Off Plus Free Shipping On Your First Set Of The Most Comfortable Sheets) PIQUE LIFE - ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠piquelife.com/velvet⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ (20% Off Plus a Free Rechargeable Frother & Glass Beaker If You're Tired of Feeling Depleted & Want to Finally Nourish Your Body the Right Way) WARBY PARKER - ⁠⁠⁠⁠www.warbyparker.com/velvet⁠⁠⁠⁠ (Try On Any Pair of Glasses Virtually of Visit One of Their Over 270 Locations) DELETEME - (Get 20% Off By Texting VELVET to 64000 - To Take Control Of Your Data & Keep Your Private Life Private) TRUDIAGNOSTIC - ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.trudiagnostic.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ (Use Code VELVET To Find Out The “Real” Age Of Your Body) RO - ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ro.co/velvet⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ (For Prescription Compounded GLP-1s and Your Free Insurance Check) MOOD - ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.mood.com/velvet ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠(20% Off With Code Velvet on Federally Legal THC Shipped Right To Your Door) MINT MOBILE- ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠mintmobile.com/velvetrope ⁠⁠⁠ (Get Your Summer Savings & Shop Premium Wireless Plans) PROGRESSIVE - ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.progressive.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ (Visit Progressive.com To See If You Could Save On Car Insurance) ADVERTISING INQUIRIES - Please contact ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠David@advertising-execs.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ MERCH Available at - ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.teepublic.com/stores/behind-the-velvet-rope?ref_id=13198⁠ Learn more about your ad choices.

Today, I'm talking with Taskrabbit CEO Ania Smith. Taskrabbit is an interesting company; it's known best for being a platform for hiring people to put together your furniture, so much so that IKEA acquired it in 2017. But Taskrabbit is still operating as a mostly independent company all these years later, and Ania is now in charge of maneuvering a fast-changing labor market during uncertain economic times and a potentially major AI disruption to the workforce on the horizon.

Should there be legal consequences for those who hire day laborers outside Home Depot without verifying their immigration status? That's today's poll question at Smerconish.com. Michael dives into the immigration debate sparked by weekend clashes in Los Angeles, the legality and ethics of on-the-spot hiring, and a personal story about TaskRabbit, a missing sofa, and a revealing look at how many Americans navigate the labor market. This is about more than immigration—it's about who we hire, why we hire, and what it says about us. Listen, then cast your own vote at Smerconish.com, and please rate and review this podcast!

Tamara Lucas, the founder and CEO of My Panda, has turned that universal feeling into a business that's transforming lives and communities. My Panda, short for “Personal Assistant Next Door App,” connects people with trusted, hyper-local assistants—called Pandas—who can handle everything from grocery runs to household chores.“What we need is community,” Tamara said during today's episode. “What we need is people to turn to that we trust to be able to ask for the help that we need and also an opportunity for people to provide assistance and help.”Unlike gig-economy platforms like TaskRabbit or Uber, My Panda emphasizes community, trust, and mutual support. Tasks submitted through the app are matched with Pandas in the user's local area, fostering a sense of connection and accountability. “You're a lot less likely to steal someone's grandmother's jewelry if you're going to run into them at Publix,” Tamara joked.The business model is as innovative as it is impactful. Users pay a flat hourly rate for services, with membership options that offer discounts and additional perks. Pandas, who are independent contractors, are primarily women—just like the users they assist. This creates what Tamara describes as “a culture of women helping women,” which has become a hallmark of My Panda.Tamara is also leveraging community to fund her vision. Through a regulated investment crowdfunding campaign on Wefunder, anyone can invest in My Panda, starting with as little as $100. “By doing crowdfunding, not only are we raising the capital that we need to grow,” she explained, “but we're also giving people a sense of ownership and deepening relationships within the community.”As My Panda prepares to expand beyond Atlanta to new markets like Charlottesville, Virginia, Tamara's vision of creating a modern-day village is gaining momentum. Her approach is about more than convenience—it's about rebuilding the connections we've lost in today's fast-paced, individualistic world.My Panda isn't just a service; it's a movement. It's a reminder that we're better together, and with the right tools, we can create a community that lifts everyone up.tl;dr:My Panda connects people with hyper-local assistants to provide trusted help for daily tasks.The app fosters community by hiring local Pandas and creating a culture of mutual support.My Panda's business model includes flat hourly rates, memberships, and perks for users.Tamara's superpower is empathy, helping her identify and act on others' needs.The company is raising capital via a WeFunder crowdfunding campaign to support its expansion.How to Develop Empathy and Connection As a SuperpowerTamara Lucas's superpower is her ability to deeply listen, empathize, and connect with others. “My biggest superpower is my ability to listen to people and connect with people, understand what their needs are, and then really creating spaces and connections for them to get those needs met,” she explained in today's episode. Tamara's background in psychology and social work has informed her approach, but it's her natural ability to engage and understand people that has been the foundation of her success.One day, a conversation with a friend sparked the idea for My Panda. Tamara's friend, a dog walker, shared her frustration: “I go into people's homes, and they need so much more than just a dog walk.” That moment of connection inspired Tamara to envision a platform where people could easily ask for—and get—the help they need. My Panda was born from her ability to listen, empathize, and act on the needs of others.To develop this superpower, Tamara's advice is straightforward yet profound:Practice Active Listening: Stop rehearsing your response in your head and focus entirely on what the other person is saying.Cultivate Empathy: Try to understand the emotions and experiences behind someone's words.Think Creatively About Support: Look for ways you—and your community—can offer help and share resources.Embrace Connection: Remember that humans are meant to live in community, not in isolation.By following Tamara's example and advice, you can make empathy and connection a skill. With practice and effort, you could make it a superpower that enables you to do more good in the world.Remember, however, that research into success suggests that building on your own superpowers is more important than creating new ones or overcoming weaknesses. You do you!Guest ProfileTamara V Lucas (she/her):CEO & Founder, My PandaAbout My Panda: My Panda (Personal Assistant Next Door App) is a tech-enabled, community-powered platform that connects people with trusted, local assistants, called Pandas - to help with everyday personal tasks.

Гость выпуска — Кирилл Островский, продакт и основатель стартапов. После опыта в крупных компаниях и стартап-экосистеме США он переехал в Остин, где открыл бизнес по ремонту деревянных террас и запустил DeepDetekt — продукт для распознавания дипфейков.Мы обсудили, почему он ушел с топовой позиции в корпорации, как запускал и перезапускал стартап в США, с какими вызовами столкнулся и как искал рынок. Поговорили про попытку создать продукт для проведения discovery calls, про фандрайзинг, ошибки на этапе кастдева и что в итоге привело к закрытию бизнеса. Разобрали, каково это — строить несколько проектов одновременно, и какие выводы он сделал, уходя в локальный офлайн-бизнес и работу с AI.Кирилл Островский (Kirill Ostrovskii) - ex Project Director Mail.ru, Product Owner в Сбере и Альфа банке.

  Hey there, welcome back to Designed for the Creative Mind! Today we're diving into a topic that hits way too close to home for so many designers — the dreaded “time trap”. Yep, I'm talking about hourly billing and the never-ending stress of tracking every bathroom break like you're auditioning for TaskRabbit. If you've ever stayed up late trying to remember how long that third round of tile edits took… this episode is for you. What we're talking about in this episode: Why charging by the hour feels “responsible” but wrecks your profits (and sanity) How hourly pricing turns you into a technician instead of a trusted expert Why your efficiency should be rewarded, not penalized How to handle clients who want a minute-by-minute breakdown A real-life example of switching to a flat fee (and how it changed everything) How value-based pricing builds trust, boundaries, and breathing room for creativity I'm walking you through my own journey of breaking free from hourly billing — the mistakes I made, the lessons I learned, and how I now coach other designers (like my client “Jess”) to make this shift with confidence. Here's the big takeaway: Clients are paying for your genius, not your time. It's time to stop selling hours and start selling transformation. If you're ready to ditch the time trap and step into your role as a creative professional (with pricing that reflects it), let's chat. Book a call with me or my team and let's get you out of hourly hell. Remember — you're not alone. And you don't have to stay stuck. Until next time, keep rising — one decision at a time.

Rival scientist Jason returns with a surprising declaration.

Kevin Busque is the co-founder and CEO of Guideline, a 401(k) management company revolutionizing the retirement space for small and medium-sized businesses. Prior to Guideline, Kevin co-founded Taskrabbit, where he encountered firsthand the complexity and low participation rates of traditional 401(k) plans—largely due to confusing fee structures. After launching Guideline to address those problems head-on, the company has seen remarkable growth, hitting $120 million in ARR by June 2024. In this conversation, Kevin shares pivotal moments that shaped Guideline's trajectory, including a strategic partnership with Gusto. He also explains how his “Do the hard thing first” mindset helped the team build an industry-leading platform and disrupt an entrenched market. – Referenced: ADP: https://www.adp.com/ Aydin Senkut: https://www.linkedin.com/in/aydins/ CalSavers: https://www.calsavers.com/ DoorDash: https://www.doordash.com/ Fidelity: https://www.fidelity.com/ Guideline: https://www.guideline.com/ Gusto: https://gusto.com/ Intuit: https://www.intuit.com/ Jeremy Caballero: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jeremycaballero/ John Zimmer: https://www.linkedin.com/in/johnzimmer11/ Josh Reeves: https://www.linkedin.com/in/joshuareeves/ Mike Nelson: https://www.linkedin.com/in/mnelsonio/ Leah Solivan: https://www.linkedin.com/in/leahsolivan/ Paychex: https://www.paychex.com/ Plaid: https://plaid.com/ Taskrabbit: https://www.taskrabbit.com/ Tomer London: https://www.linkedin.com/in/tomerlondon/ – Where to find Kevin: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/kevinbusque/ – Where to find Brett: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/brett-berson-9986094/ Twitter/X: https://twitter.com/brettberson – Where to find First Round Capital: Website: https://firstround.com/ First Round Review: https://review.firstround.com/ Twitter/X: https://twitter.com/firstround YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@FirstRoundCapital This podcast on all platforms: https://review.firstround.com/podcast – Timestamps: (00:00) Teaser: “I don't believe in stealth mode” (02:51) Inspiration behind Guideline (07:56) Lessons from a year's research before Guideline (10:44) Identifying market pull for Guideline (14:28) What Kevin learnt before shipping their first product (19:10) How Guideline set their fees up (27:51) The surprising range of Guideline's early customers (31:48) Kevin's insights from the Gusto integration (39:48) Guideline's first year (44:44) Working with Plaid as Guideline's first customer (53:28) Guideline's auto-enrollment feature (57:53) Lucky 8: Kevin's unexpected pricing strategy (62:04) Franchise opportunities (64:49) Kevin's reflections on Taskrabbit (71:36) Will Guideline ever go multi-product?

After accused killer Lee Gilley appeared in court in Houston, Texas supported by lead defense attorney Dick DeGuerin, investigative journalists Mandy Matney and Liz Farrell dive in to what happened to Christa Bauer Gilley of Summerville, South Carolina. Court documents in the case reveal shocking details of how Lee Gilley acted after his wife's death at their Houston Heights home. You'll hear the latest on Lee Gilley's bond agreement and what's next to get Justice For Christa. And affidavits filed in Christa's children's custody case show the horrible way her family found out about her death … and about how she died. We also take a look at the U.S. Fourth Circuit Court of Appeals' decision to vacate the conviction and sentence of one of Alex Murdaugh's alleged co-conspirators — bank enabler Russell Laffitte. Why did the court do this? When will Russell be released from prison? What about all the money he still owes his attorneys? And will Murdaugh trial superstar Creighton Waters — with that Big Creighton Energy — step in to prosecute Russell on his pending 21 state charges for allegedly helping Alex steal clients' money?  Plus an update on a trial date in the Sara Lynn Colucci case and the latest in Buster Murdaugh's defamation lawsuit.

After investigative journalists Mandy Matney and Liz Farrell wrapped up last week's episode — in which Mandy wondered when we'd ever see Myrtle Beach pastor JP Miller in handcuffs — they got their wish. JP spent one glorious night in jail after a physical confrontation between him and a female protester. And the drama didn't end there...  On today's episode we look at what went down between JP and the protester as well as everything that was revealed in a May 2 recording of JP talking to his business partners about Mica Francis' death days earlier. Also we look at what Mica's medical records tell us about the three years after her alleged first suicide attempt.  Plus, updates in the Christa Bauer Gilley case in Houston Heights, Texas, including the quest for Lee Gilley's jailhouse phone calls and a look at his newest attorney …. whose name is Dick. But not that Dick! Star criminal defense lawyer Dick DeGuerin, who defended the likes of David Koresh and Robert Durst, has joined Lee's defense team, in what's turning out to be another example of a wealthy man trying to buy his way out of accountability.  Episode Resources TikTok video of JP Miller's altercation “Myrtle Beach pastor linked to Mica Miller case out on bond after assault arrest” - WMBF News JP Miller's Nov 6, 2024 Arrest Warrant “The Crocodile Rocks Tapes” YouTube Video by Robbie Harvey Mica Francis TSP & COJ Playlist Stay Tuned, Stay Pesky and Stay in the Sunlight...☀️ Join Luna Shark Premium today at Lunashark.Supercast.com.

Justice for Mica Miller is percolating six months and more than 20 episodes after investigative journalists Mandy Matney and Liz Farrell began reporting her the death and what her life looked like in the leadup to it.  On Friday, the FBI finally moved in on Mica's husband... Myrtle Beach Pastor JP Miller, who stands accused of harassing, stalking and coercively controlling her during their marriage. For more than five hours, around two dozen federal agents searched his house and left with computers and boxes of alleged evidence. On this deep dive episode, Mandy, Liz and reporter Beth Braden — talk about how the raid unfolded and what happens next. Days after the raid, JP's church, Solid Rock At Market Common, appears to have shut its doors for good... What is JP doing with all the church's assets...?

Thrice accused rapist Bowen Turner is getting out of prison on Halloween, and in this episode, journalists Mandy Matney and Liz Farrell warn the women of South Carolina while explaining who is responsible for the systemic failure that led to Turner's swift release.  Did Assistant Solicitor Kevin Hope fail when he agreed to the plea sentence for Turner's resisting arrest charge? Did Bowen change? How is Bowen Turner getting out of prison?  This wildly important episode focuses on the Bowen Turner case, highlighting a series of alleged failures within the South Carolina justice system that allowed a man accused of multiple rapes to be released from prison AGAIN. We also explore similar instances of alleged bias in the justice system, specifically towards men from privileged backgrounds, and compare Turner's treatment to other, often less privileged, individuals involved in confrontations with law enforcement. We also critique the use of the Youthful Offender Act (YOA) in Turner's case, questioning its applicability given the seriousness of the charges and the apparent lack of rehabilitation effort on Turner's part…. The team also sheds light on the most recent news on Myrtle Beach pastor JP Miller and Solid Rock church in their rebranding efforts after Mica Francis' death.  Episode Resources 'Brock Turner released from jail' - CNN 'What happened to US low-cost carrier AirTran Airways?' - Simple Flying  Youthful Offenders Act Code of Law Dash Cam: Thrice Accused Rapist Bowen Turner Arrested AGAIN After DUI Crash True Sunlight 67 Episode GoFundMe for Christa Bauer Gilley Women's Healthcare in Texas Hilton Head Man Sentenced to 10 Years For Stealing Purse Man Sentenced in Lexington County For Burglary Stay Tuned, Stay Pesky and Stay in the Sunlight...☀️ Join Luna Shark Premium today at Lunashark.Supercast.com.

Investigative journalists Mandy Matney and Liz Farrell begin their look into the Oct. 7 death of 38-year-old Christa Bauer Gilley in Texas and the arrest of her husband, Lee Gilley, who initially told investigators that Christa died by suicide after an argument they had. Christa, who was nine weeks pregnant at the time of her death, was strangled to death according to investigators. It's yet another instance in which a woman's cause of death is presented to law enforcement as a suicide when evidence points to homicide. Mandy and Liz consider whether this is a new trend or something that has existed for generations and it's taken until now to see through the Big Suicide Lie from spouses and romantic partners. Also on the show, the Top 10 Systemic Failures that have benefitted thrice-accused rapist Bowen Turner who is due to be released from prison on Halloween — including his latest quickie appearance in court where he was sentenced to time served after pleading guilty to resisting arrest earlier this year. Remember that ride to jail? When Bowen asked the state trooper to take him to his grandmother's house because he didn't believe White boys should go to jail? Plus updates in Buster Murdaugh's defamation case and the Mallory Beach civil conspiracy case. Please consider supporting the GoFundMe for Christa Bauer Gilley children. Any money raised beyond the immediate needs of the family will go directly to Christa's children to help provide for their futures. gofund.me/041c0f9a Episode Resources The State v. Bowen G.

Investigative journalists Mandy Matney and Liz Farrell return to the Mica Francis case and to March 23, 2018 … the day of Mica's alleged first attempt at suicide.... Medical records from that day say her husband — pastor JP Miller — called one of Mica's mental health providers at 10 a.m. to say that Mica had stolen JP's credit card, snuck out of the house while he was sleeping, gone ot Dick's Pawn Shop that morning, purchased a gun, received a lesson on how to use it and then tried shooting herself in their front yard. And, like with most everything else in this case, JP's account contains inconsistencies, contradictions and raises a lot of questions. Such as could Mica have done all of that in less than an hour?  Mandy and Liz talk about that and what else is contained in the medical records from that day. Also on the show, an update on the Nautilus case — WILL ALEX MURDAUGH AND CORY FLEMING BE REUNITED?!?  Plus, Alex finally settled the Mallory Beach boat crash civil liability case and an update on the Beach family's second civil conspiracy case and their request for a judge to step down.  Finally, October is Domestic Violence Awareness month and … we're all aware. Now is the time for meaningful change, starting with South Carolina Attorney General Alan Wilson who needs to trade his photo ops with paper dolls for actual action in the courtroom … starting with getting a trial date for the Sara Lynn Colucci case.  Episode Resources “SC AG honors fallen victims of domestic violence” article Law & Crime's article on Christa Gilley's murder PRESS Act FAQ's H.R.4250 - PRESS Act NewsNation Interview with JP Miller Stay Tuned, Stay Pesky and Stay in the Sunlight...☀️ Join Luna Shark Premium today at Lunashark.Supercast.com.

In today's Premium Dive Bonus episode, Attorney Rebecca Lindahl and reporter Sam Berlin discuss the implications of Buster's media interviews and public appearances, which could make him a public figure, complicating his defamation case. They highlight the legal protections for press, such as the Fair Reporting Privilege and Absolute Privilege. Also, Mandy Matney and producer/husband David recount Mandy's defamation lawsuit involving former USC professor, David Voros, criticizing the attorney Bill Padgett for pursuing baseless claims. Mandy shares the emotional and financial toll of the lawsuit, which cost over $33,000 plus all the stress, emotional toll, and havoc it caused. Becky Lindahl advises on handling defamation claims, emphasizing the importance of gathering evidence and seeking legal counsel early.   We believe in the importance of anti-SLAPP laws and the need for legal protections against strategic lawsuits aimed at chilling public speech or silencing specific individuals.

Investigative reporters Mandy Matney and Liz Farrell celebrate Alex Murdaugh's biggest loss yet … one that will effectively keep him behind bars for the rest of his life. Also on the show, Buster Murdaugh triples down on his defamation claims against Netflix and Hampton County reporter Michael Dewitt. In a federal filing this week, Buster argues that — though he left out the context of Dewitt's words in his original filing in South Carolina — including all of Dewitt's interview on “Murdaugh Murders: A Southern Scandal,” actually helps strengthen his claim. Plus, the drama outside Solid Rock Ministries church in Myrtle Beach has NOT calmed down. On Sunday, pastor JP Miller was accused of assaulting a protester dressed as Jesus, and protesters were accused of harassing JP's alleged paramour by shouting “demeaning” comments at her.  Mandy and Liz also took a look at the FOIA logs for Myrtle Beach and Horry County police departments to see who was seeking information on Mica Francis. And what they found was shocking: Before her death, Mica was seeking public information from the police … and they gave her next to nothing.

Investigative journalists Mandy Matney and Liz Farrell take on the Good Ole Boys once again, starting with lawyers who knowingly file frivolous lawsuits. Last week Myrtle Beach pastor JP Miller and his attorney Russell B. Long filed a defamation complaint against a paralegal who said he called her law office in search of a divorce attorney who could “destroy” his wife, Mica Francis, whose body was found in a North Carolina swamp last April. Not only is it laughable that JP believes this hurts his already-bad reputation, the complaint doesn't articulate that anything the paralegal stated as fact is untrue. Also on the show, a newly released report from Horry County Police Department shows that JP Miller was accused of bestiality this past June. What?!?! We'll share all that we know about this public document and our ongoing fight with Horry County to release all that can be according to SC state law. And Mandy and Liz take a look at the checkered past of Mica Francis' psychiatrist … Dr. Duchesne... the one who seemed to take JP's narrative as fact. Note: Mandy and Liz both pronounce Dr. "Duchesne" as they interpreted/researched it but its the same person... Plus, an update on Russell Laffitte's Federal Appeal Hearing and another South Carolina judge's conduct is raising questions in the Beach case.   So much to get into... so let's dive in...  Episode 68 Resources Join Premium for the COJ 100 Live Recording Broadcast Cups Up at Coco's On The Beach Event Russell Laffitte's Federal Appeal Hearing Russell Laffitte's Attorney Bill Wilkins Charlotte Korn's Cease and “Destist” Letter Attorney Bill Padgett from HHP in Columbia, SC Premium Dive: Am I Being Defamed (PART ONE) Collin Rugg's May 3, 2024 Tweet Mica's List & Mica's Law Stay Tuned, Stay Pesky and Stay in the Sunlight...☀️ Join Luna Shark Premium today at Lunashark.Supercast.com.

Investigative journalists Mandy Matney and Liz Farrell continue their coverage of two appeal hearings heard last week in the case of thrice-accused rapist Bowen Turner and his sweetheart plea deal.  Today. listeners will get to hear Part Two of the Chloe Bess interview, where she talks about what it was like being in the courtroom and on her thoughts about how the system continues to coddle and make excuses for Bowen, who sexually assaulted her as a teenager.  Also on the show, Mandy and Liz begin sharing their findings from the stack of medical records leaked to them in the Mica Francis case, starting with the first few months of 2018, the year of Mica's first alleged suicide attempt. From the get-go, Mica's marriage to Myrtle Beach pastor JP Miller was defined by a questionable mental health diagnosis that continues to plague her memory to this day, five months after her death. Records from January through March 2018 show that Mica had immediate doubts about this diagnosis and a — despite her husband's insistence that she remain compliant with her medication — JP himself was playing pharmacist.  Episode Resources: Bowen Turner v.

The Bowen Turner case in South Carolina has been one for the outrage records. Listeners across the country have been horrified as they watched the justice system coddle Bowen over and over while the thrice-accused rapist gave his second, third and fourth chances the middle finger. But now, something good could come from the case — a case that included the horrific bullying of Dallas Stoller, one of his accusers. Bullying that resulted in her death.  Something good might come from Bowen's 2022 sham of a plea deal hearing — orchestrated by a cunning lawyer-legislator, executed by a prosecutor blinded by ambition and approved by a Good Ole Boy judge. Change might be coming because of an appeal filed by another one of Bowen's accusers, Chloe Bess. Investigative journalists Mandy Matney and Liz Farrell take a look at the historic filing and what went down during oral arguments in front of the state Court of Appeals on Tuesday. The state's victims bill of rights affords victims the opportunity to be heard in court. In trials, victims can testify before a verdict is rendered — before a potential conviction. But in plea deals they've been restricted to being heard only after the judge has accepted the pleading — only AFTER the conviction. Chloe Bess and her legal team are trying to change that … to finally make victims' rights MEANINGFUL.

Leaked medical records from Mica Francis' in-patient and outpatient visits to mental health facilities were leaked to the public over the past week, and investigative journalists Mandy Matney and Liz Farrell are diving in. According to the records — some of which were sent directly to Luna Shark Media and others that were posted online by a TikToker sympathetic to JP Miller's plight — Mica was confused about her diagnosis and its symptoms. At the same time, these records raise questions about how Mica was being treated and where clinicians were getting some of their information about her alleged behavior. In one report, the clinician notes that Mica recognized the need to “listen to her husband when he raises concerns.” Also on the show, one of the two appeals in the Bowen Turner case is set to be heard and it's a big deal. Next week attorneys representing one of Bowen's victims — whom he pleaded guilty to assaulting — will argue that the prosecution and defenses deprived her from her constitutional right to be present at Bowen's plea hearing. How the court rules could have a lasting impact on the future of victims' rights in South Carolina. We will broadcast the hearing LIVE for Luna Shark Premium members next Tuesday at 10 am ET...

Investigative reporters Mandy Matney and Liz Farrell continue their look into the Mica Francis case with Part Two of their deep dive into the pile of “evidence” her estranged husband — Myrtle Beach Pastor JP Miller — filed in her probate case.  The evidence was meant to support JP's claims that he was a good husband and not the cause of Mica's death this past spring. Instead, Mandy and Liz are finding that the evidence — when pieced together — provides a disturbing look at the early days of the couple's marriage. From the very beginning, JP seems to have seized on Mica's alleged bipolar disorder diagnosis and appears to have used it as a way to contain and control Mica.  Also on today's episode, the Alex Murdaugh Clown Show is coming back to town. This week, jilted Juror 785 and Juror 630 make their television premier as they help Team Murdaugh manipulate the headlines ahead of Alex's hearing in the state Supreme Court for his conviction murder conviction appeal.

Investigative reporters Mandy Matney and Liz Farrell continue their in-depth coverage of the Mica Francis case.  Earlier this month, exhibits filed with Horry County Probate Court by Mica's estranged husband, Myrtle Beach Pastor JP Miller, were made available to the public. To JP Miller, they are evidence that Mica Miller was a sick woman and he only wanted the best for her — that her estrangement from him was the result of family pressure and not because of anything she felt.  He is adamant that he bears no responsibility in her April 27 death. But does the evidence show what JP says it does?  Over the next few episodes, Mandy and Liz will analyze the exhibits piece by piece and discuss what this newly revealed information actually says about JP's relationship with Mica.  In Part One, they explore the first two months of Mica's marriage to JP and specifically the events that occurred in the 30 days between Mica's surgery on Dec. 1, 2017, and their church wedding at the end of the year. JP maintains that Mica experienced a bout of post-anesthetic psychosis and that the effects of this lasted in some form or other until her death. But is that really what happened? A look at emails and texts from that time seem to point to something else … and that something looks a whole lot like coercive control.  Also on the show, a FOIA request from Luna Shark reveals new information in Mica's case. In February of this year, Mica Francis reached out to the South Carolina Secretary of State's Office to report that JP had allegedly stolen her notary seal. Premium Members get an extended episode with analysis of the so-called “undecipherable email” from 2017 that JP claims shows the depth of Mica's break from reality....
