From truly awful Pokémon lore to Minecraft monstrosities, here are some creepy videogame theories to ruin your childhood.

In this episode of The Intelligent Vocalist, John unpacks how scientific understanding of vocal resonance has evolved. He explains how these changing theories impact how we teach and experience singing, and why resonance is less about static shapes and more about interactive energy. Understanding this evolution helps singers work with, not against, the natural behavior of the voice. Episode highlights: Resonance is dynamic and constantly adjusting as we sing. The science of voice is always evolving, just like our understanding of it. When singers tune into sensation and sound, resonance takes care of itself.

**Discussion beings 9:07**On October 9, 2013, 14 year old Abigail Hernandez disappeared while walking home from school in North Conway, NH – a small town with a population of about 2000. The school librarian reported seeing her walking in the direction of her home at 2:30 PM, and she was not seen again for nine months. While she was missing, her mom never gave up the search for her – convinced that she was alive and being held against her will. Her father on the other hand, claimed that she had likely just runaway. The only sign of life was a letter mailed to her mother, which was received nearly a month after the disappearance – letting her know that she was alive and apologizing for leaving. This letter, as well as the lack of crime in NH, led to the accepted belief amongst the locals that Abby had likely conspired to willingly disappear. The public was outspoken with their disdain for the young girl, and what they perceived to be a drain on finances and resources spent looking for her. It was known that she likely couldn't have survived on her own - did she have an older boyfriend that she had run away with? Theories had circulated around the school that she had fled due to a teen pregnancy. Conspiracy theories only got worse 9 months later when she walked through the front door of the home she shared with her mom and sister. She was wearing the same clothing she had been wearing when she disappeared. She refused to tell anyone where she had been or what had happened to her. So what really happened in those missing 9 months? Was Abby the victim of a terrible crime? Or the perpetrator of a horrendous conspiracy?Send us a textSupport the showTheme song by INDA
Monday marks 50 years since the Edmund Fitzgerald took its final voyage, before getting swallowed by Lake Superior in a November storm. All 29 crew on the ship died. The story of the Fitz has become an urban legend of sorts around the Great Lakes region. Exactly what led to the ship sinking is a mystery. A new book is dedicated to looking at the theories and telling the stories of the crew, through interviews with their family members. The book is called “The Gales of November: The Untold Story of the Edmund Fitzgerald.” Its author, John U. Bacon, sat down for an interview with MPR News reporter Dan Kraker.

Welcome back to Breadcrumbs & Broomsticks, the Thursday companion to our Heir of Fire season. This is where we step out of the strict chapter-bound analysis, and step into the theory pit. In this spoiler-friendly episode, Jac and Amy read listener submissions and talk through the biggest discourse moment of these chapters: Rowan punching Aelin. We expand on reader reactions, unpack whether this moment earns its place in the arc, and dig into the foreshadowing this scene plants for their future dynamic, trust, and eventual reversal of power. We also chase down theories tied to: Maeve's manipulation & long game (who benefits from restraint?) the symbolism of mist / cold / the moon-white imagery Manon's wyvern introduction + what that unlocks later Dorian, Sorscha, Chaol, and the political fuse that's already quietly smoldering This is where your thoughts get center stage — from “Rowan was unforgivable here” to “this is deliberate low point arc engineering,” to “SJM is mirroring Aelin/Rowan with Manon/wyverns on purpose.” Full spoilers are allowed for all future Heir of Fire chapters and the rest of the Throne of Glass series.

Physics has been full of astonishing discoveries over the past century. But they open up even bigger mysteries that scientists are working feverishly to explain. What is dark energy? And why is the expansion of the universe accelerating? In public talks at the Perimeter Institute for Theoretical Physics in Waterloo, Ontario, two prominent physicists – Sarah Shandera of Penn State University and Stanford University's Savas Dimopoulos – discuss the breakthroughs of recent decades and what it will take to solve the most nettlesome mysteries that have deepened in their wake.
This conversation explores the intersection of mathematics and human experience, focusing on historical figures, philosophical debates, and the ethical implications of scientific progress. Jason Socrates Bardi discusses his book 'The Great Math War', which delves into the personal stories of mathematicians, the challenges of teaching math, and the relevance of these themes in today's world, particularly in the context of AI and misinformation.Takeaways The personal experiences of mathematicians shape their work. Philosophical clashes in mathematics reflect broader societal issues. Hilbert's optimism about problem-solving parallels today's AI discussions. Historical context is crucial in understanding mathematical developments. Ethics in science must be prioritized to avoid past mistakes. There are limits to human knowledge that we must acknowledge. Mathematics is a fundamental human skill, not just for the gifted. The future of mathematics will be influenced by AI and technology. Understanding historical fallacies can inform current practices. Kovalevsky's story is an inspiring example of overcoming barriers.Chapters 00:00 The Personal Journey Behind The Great Math War 03:08 The Philosophical Clash in Mathematics 05:13 The Great Math War: Key Players and Their Missions 07:38 The Foundations of Mathematics: Paradoxes and Theories 08:55 The Role of Historical Context in Mathematics 10:00 The Human Side of Mathematics: Stories of Resilience 12:36 Ethics in Science and the Modern Age 14:56 The Future of Mathematics and Technology 25:32 The Spectrum of Idealism and Realism 26:13 Understanding Ignoramus et Ignoramnibus 29:04 Neuroscience and the Evolution of Mathematics 33:12 The Future of AI and Consciousness 35:31 Fallacies and Paradoxes in Mathematics 38:31 The Legacy of Sofia Kovalesky 43:10 The Great Math War: A Reflection on Logic and HumanityFollow Jason on LinkedIn, Twitter, and find his new book here.Subscribe to Breaking Math wherever you get your podcasts.Follow Breaking Math on Twitter, Instagram, LinkedIn, Website, YouTube, TikTokFollow Autumn on Twitter, BlueSky, and InstagramBecome a guest hereemail: breakingmathpodcast@gmail.com

Reports paint Andrew's days at Royal Lodge as late starts, war films, golf and Call of Duty on a wall-sized TV, with rare rides out and growing loneliness. Friends say Sarah Ferguson faces “nowhere to go, and no one to go with” if the Lodge era ends. A Scottish refuge offer at Carbisdale Castle has been withdrawn after threats; talk of “exile” to the Castle of Mey persists, though commentators say Frogmore or even Abu Dhabi is likelier. Then a tech hiccup: Andrew's defunct website briefly reappeared — in Vietnamese — before redirect issues were fixed. Opinion writers argue his position is untenable and that the Firm's survival relies on decisive action.Check out "Palace Intrigue Presents: King WIlliam" here.
The Libet experiment didn't kill free will, says professor of neuroscience Aaron Schurger; the brain's "readiness potential" is simply stochastic neural noise. We then tackle consciousness's role in initiating action, the hard problem, and what it'd take for neuroscience to truly disprove our choices.

Welcome to Breadcrumbs & Broomsticks, the Thursday companion to our Heir of Fire analysis! This week, we dive into listener thoughts, spoiler theories, and deep-cut foreshadowing across the Throne of Glass series. In this spoiler-friendly episode, Jac and Amy read your submissions and explore the hidden threads in Heir of Fire chapters 1–7. From Celaena's descent into despair in Wendlyn to Manon's bloody debut, we uncover early clues pointing toward Aelin's transformation, Rowan's purpose, and the shifting power dynamics across Terrasen and Rifthold. We revisit key moments that seemed small on first read—the mist, the ring, the sword of Orynth, the word “coward”—and ask what they really foreshadow about the fates of Celaena, Dorian, Chaol, and Manon. Through the Feminist and Marxist lenses, we analyze how grief, class, and power converge in these opening chapters, setting the stage for one of Sarah J. Maas's most pivotal character metamorphoses. What we discuss: Listener insights and predictions from Instagram and booktalkforbooktok.com Hidden symbols and early foreshadowing that pay off later in Heir of Fire and beyond Theories on Maeve's manipulation, Rowan's role, and Celaena's “monster” identity How Dorian's magic and Aedion's loyalty mirror Marxist ideas of rebellion and labor Manon's introduction as the Feminist subversion of power and violence Spoilers: Full spoilers for Heir of Fire (all chapters), Throne of Glass, Crown of Midnight, and light discussion of future books in the Throne of Glass series.

Jacob Gray, a 22-year-old experienced outdoorsman, disappeared in Olympic National Park on April 6, 2017, after his bike and belongings were found near the Sol Duc Hot Springs area. Despite extensive search and rescue efforts involving ground teams, aerial reconnaissance, and specialized canine units, no trace of Jacob was found until over a year later, when hikers discovered his remains near the Hoh River, 15 miles from where his gear was initially found. The cause of death remains undetermined due to the decomposition of his remains, leaving his disappearance a mystery. Theories range from an accidental injury or hypothermia to a voluntary disappearance or mental health crisis, but no conclusive evidence has been found. Jacob's case serves as a sobering reminder of the dangers of solo adventuring in remote wilderness areas and the emotional toll on families left without answers.(commercial at 8:42)to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com
