Adelsons' Dark Holidays, D4VD's Body in the Trunk, Rex Heuermann's Trial Tightrope In this episode of Hidden Killers Live with Tony Brueski, Stacy Cole, and Todd Michaels, the conversation swings from lighthearted Halloween chatter into some of the darkest cases dominating headlines today. The show opens with pumpkins, pasta sauce, and a creepy animatronic doll that leaves Harper screaming — but the mood shifts quickly as the hosts turn their attention to the Adelson family. Once known for wealth and influence, the Adelsons now face prison cells, empty chairs at holiday tables, and children left in the middle of a murder-for-hire plot. What do the holidays look like for a family split between freedom and incarceration? And how does Jeff Lacasse's painful, raw testimony continue to shape public perception of Wendi Adelson and the damage she left behind? From Florida, the spotlight moves west to Hollywood. Rising star D4VD's career collapsed overnight after the decomposed body of 15-year-old Celeste Rivas Hernandez was discovered in the trunk of his Tesla. Tony is joined by defense attorney and former prosecutor Eric Faddis to unpack the legal nightmare: ownership vs. possession of the vehicle, the disturbing revelation of matching tattoos, grooming allegations, missing-person timelines, and deleted social media trails that may point to destruction of evidence. Is this the fall of a star — or could someone in his inner circle be framing him? Finally, the team shifts to Long Island, where accused serial killer Rex Heuermann faces a consolidated mega-trial after a judge ruled that seven murder charges will be tried together. With groundbreaking DNA technology, victim dignity concerns, and family fallout all in play, the Gilgo Beach case has become one of the most complex trials in recent memory. Can Heuermann's ex-wife Asa Ellerup or even his daughter be called to testify? Can jurors truly remain impartial under this level of public scrutiny? And will new forensic science set precedent for murder prosecutions across the country? This episode blends sharp analysis, dark humor, and deep dives into three of the most haunting cases of our time — the Adelsons, D4VD, and Rex Heuermann — exposing not only the crimes, but the rippling human cost.

In this week's episode of the Gloria Grahame Acteurist Oeuvre-view series, our heroine battles an organized crime ring in Fritz Lang's classic noir The Big Heat and the Soviets, or in any case her beleaguered circus capitalist husband, Fredric March, in Elia Kazan's Man on a Tightrope (both 1953). Dave and Elise are somewhat at odds about the effectiveness of Tightrope's anti-censorship message, but united on the effectiveness of Lang's use of the noir genre, and Grahame, to depict heroism in a world familiar with the horrors of fascism.  Time Codes: 0h 00m 25s:    Man on a Tightrope (1953) [dir.

Brad Zerbo and Zak “RedPill78” Paine unpack a bombshell undercover report from O'Keefe Media Group, where DOJ investigator Glenn Prager allegedly confirms Epstein's ties to the CIA and Mossad. The conversation digs into Prager's claims that Bill Clinton appeared in Epstein's flight logs tied to assaults, while Trump never was—though Trump may be protecting others by holding back full disclosure. The hosts explore witness payoffs, buried investigations, and how the infamous “Epstein list” may have been destroyed to shield the Clintons. From DOJ denials and James O'Keefe's follow-up call to Prager, to speculation about narrative control and intel drops, Brad and Zak piece together the latest in a saga of corruption and cover-ups. The episode broadens into Trump's UN speech, Russia as a “paper tiger,” and the Deep State's games on the world stage, blending current events, whistleblower drama, and cultural breakdowns into one of Altered State's most charged episodes yet.

Ever wonder if being too nice, too open, too tolerant can actually backfire? It sounds crazy, but that's the heart of Karl Popper's 'Paradox of Tolerance.' In this episode, we're wrestling with a huge question: To maintain a peaceful, tolerant society, must we be intolerant of intolerance? We'll explore the fine line between open-mindedness and self-destruction, touching on free speech, social justice, and what it truly means to build a world where everyone can coexist. This isn't just a dusty old philosophy; it's a question that echoes in our headlines and our daily lives. Get ready to have your assumptions challenged.

September 15, 2025 | Season 7 | Episode 34The financial world holds its breath as the Federal Reserve prepares for its most consequential meeting in months. Markets have climbed to record highs, yet beneath this strength lies a complex economic puzzle that affects every investor's decision-making process.At the heart of this week's financial drama is the Fed's delicate balancing act. Fresh data reveals a labor market losing steam faster than expected, with the Bureau of Labor Statistics dramatically revising job creation figures downward by 911,000 positions. Meanwhile, weekly unemployment claims have spiked to their highest levels since 2021. Yet inflation remains stubbornly above the Fed's 2% target, creating a central banking dilemma that Chair Jerome Powell must navigate under intense political scrutiny.This economic contradiction directly impacts your money's future purchasing power. We explore why funds sitting in traditional bank accounts earning negligible interest (often 0.01%-0.05%) face the silent threat of inflation erosion. Even "safe" Treasury bills now yield just 3.63%, potentially delivering negative real returns after taxes with inflation running near 3%. This changing landscape explains why many investors are reevaluating their approach to cash positions.Despite these challenges, equity markets display remarkable resilience. The S&P 500 and NASDAQ continue setting records amid global tensions and economic uncertainty, while the IPO market shows signs of renewed vigor with successful debuts from companies like Klarna. Historical patterns suggest markets often perform well after the Fed begins cutting rates, providing a potential tailwind for investors willing to look beyond current concerns about valuations.From rising food and healthcare costs to the opportunities in alternative investments, we unpack the complex factors shaping today's investment landscape. Whether you're focused on preserving capital or growing your portfolio, understanding these economic crosscurrents is essential for making informed financial decisions in today's challenging environment.Subscribe for more insights that help you navigate market uncertainty with confidence and clarity. Your financial future depends on staying ahead of these critical economic shifts.** For informational and educational purposes only, not intended as investment advice.

Their analysis of a routine medical call that escalated to deadly force sparks a profound discussion about when force becomes necessary and how proper training might prevent tragedy.As tensions between law enforcement and communities continue to simmer nationwide, the panel doesn't shy away from discussing the controversial "thin blue line" and what it truly represents to officers.

SEND ME A TEXT MESSAGE NOWIt's Friday, and that means one thing: the week may be over, but the madness is still rolling downhill. A World Gone Mad is back with the Friday Edition — the mix of hard news, sharp commentary, and a trip to News from the Edge of Sanity to lighten the weight before the weekend hits.This episode kicks off with the kind of headline you can't ignore — the powerful using power to settle scores. I dig into the latest raid making waves in Washington and why the story isn't about documents, but about something pettier and more dangerous.From there, I head south — where a detention facility in the swamp has become a national flashpoint. What it represents goes way beyond barbed wire, and it raises a bigger question about how far politicians will go when they're chasing headlines and trying to look “tough.”Then I turn my focus to the economy. Markets are rattling, leaders are talking, and your wallet is caught in the middle. I look at the signals coming out of Jackson Hole and what they could mean for everything from mortgages to grocery bills — and why the spectacle isn't just about Wall Street.After that, it's time for the Friday tradition: News from the Edge of Sanity. The headlines may be heavy, but the sidelines are downright unhinged. Strange cargo spills, bizarre traditions that refuse to die, and public meltdowns that belong more in a comedy sketch than real life.As always, the absurd lives right next door to the serious — and if you can't laugh at it, you'll go mad from it. That's the balance I bring: news with teeth, and satire with purpose.The madness isn't slowing down — and neither am I.Send your comments to:MadWorldTalk@gmail.comAWorldGoneMadPodcast@gmail.com

Wall Street heads to Wyoming as the Fed's Jackson Hole summit begins, with Jerome Powell walking a policy tightrope under close investor watch. Plus, chip stocks face fresh pressure after steep losses, and later, retail earnings take the spotlight with futures in the red.

Empathy is one of the most critical leadership skills we can have—but like any strength, it can become a liability when it's out of balance. In this episode, I'm diving into the dangers of both too much and too little empathy as a leader. Because here's the truth: leaders without enough empathy lose trust, connection, and team cohesion… but leaders with too much empathy risk burnout, decision fatigue, and losing their leadership edge. We will dig into what happens when empathy turns into emotional over-functioning, when we're not just feeling with our people, but we're carrying their feelings as our own. This is especially common for leaders who are natural caretakers or people-pleasers, or who've been taught that being liked equals being effective. I'll also break down how leaders with too little empathy often miss opportunities to connect, inspire, and build loyalty. Most importantly, I'll walk you through practical ways to find your Goldilocks “just right” empathy zone. You'll learn how to be compassionate without losing your boundaries, how to acknowledge people's experiences without absorbing their emotions, and how to lead with both heart and backbone. This is the work of becoming a leader who is deeply human and deeply effective. If you've ever wondered whether you're caring too much—or not enough—about the emotional side of leadership, this conversation will help you recalibrate so you can lead with clarity, confidence, and courage.

Alberta's Battle River-Crowfoot is about as safe a riding as Conservative leader Pierre Poilievre could hope for as a place to regain a seat in the House of Commons in a byelection later this month. But he's facing pushback from some locals who feel they're being used as a means to an end by someone who won't represent their interests in Ottawa. The riding is also the latest target of the Longest Ballot Committee protest movement — including one dinosaur-obsessed candidate, Nicola Zoghbi, who promises to move the national capital to Drumheller and rename the riding "Raptor River-Crowfoot."Meanwhile, Prime Minister Mark Carney is facing growing pressure to secure some sort of trade deal with the United States after Donald Trump made good on a promise of 35 percent tariffs on all Canadian imports not covered by CUSMA. How much political runway does Carney have left?CBC Ottawa senior reporter Aaron Wherry breaks down both of these stories.For transcripts of Front Burner, please visit: https://www.cbc.ca/radio/frontburner/transcripts

Ankara is aiming to dodge President Donald Trump's threat of sanctions against countries that trade with Russia. While Turkey is the third largest importer of Russian goods, it has largely escaped international sanctions against Russia over its invasion of Ukraine. However, with Trump vowing to get tough with Moscow if it fails to make peace with Kyiv, that could change. “I am going to make a new deadline of about 10 or 12 days from today," Trump declared at a press conference on 28 July during his visit to Scotland. "There is no reason to wait 50 days. I wanted to be generous, but we don't see any progress being made.”  The American president admitted his efforts to end the Ukraine war had failed and that his patience with his Russian counterpart, Vladimir Putin, was at an end. Turkish President Erdogan ready to rekindle friendship with Trump   Trump later confirmed 8 August as the date for the new measures. With US-Russian trade down 90 percent since Russia's invasion of Ukraine, Trump warned that other countries importing Russian goods would also be hit by secondary sanctions. “If you take his [Trump] promises at face value, then he should look at all countries that import any Russian commodities that is of primary importance to the Russian budget - this includes, of course, crude oil, and here you have China and India mostly,” explained George Voloshin of Acams, a global organisation dedicated to anti-financial crime, training and education. Voloshin also claims that Turkey could be a target as well. “In terms of petroleum products, Turkey is one of the big importers. It also refines Russian petroleum in its own refineries," Voloshin added. "Turkey imports lots of Russian gas through the TurkStream pipeline. Turkey is very much dependent on Russian gas and Russian petroleum products." Turkey's rivalry with Iran shifts as US threats create unlikely common ground   Since Russia's invasion of Ukraine, Ankara insists it is only bound by United Nations sanctions. Last year, Turkey was Russia's third-largest export market, with Russian natural gas accounting for more than  40 percent of its energy needs. Putin has used Turkey's lack of meaningful domestic energy reserves and dependence on Russian gas to develop a close relationship with his Turkish counterpart, Recep Tayyip Erdoğan. “Putin knows that no matter what Trump wants, Turkey is not going to act in any military or sanctions capacity against Russia and Iran. You know, these are Turkey's red lines. We can't do it,” said analyst Atilla Yeşilada of Global Source Partners. “Trump is 10,000 miles away. These people are our neighbours,” added Yeşilada. “So Putin doesn't think of Turkey as a threat, but as an economic opportunity, and perhaps as a way to do things with the West that he doesn't want to do directly.” Ankara is performing a delicate balancing act. While maintaining trading ties with Russia, Erdoğan remains a strong supporter of Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky. Turkey is a major arms seller to Ukraine, while at the same time, Erdoğan continues to try and broker peace between the warring parties. Last month, Istanbul was the venue for Russian–Ukrainian talks for the second time in as many months. Such efforts drew the praise of Trump. Trump and Erdogan grow closer as cooperation on Syria deepens Trump's pressure mounts on energy and trade The American president has made no secret of his liking for Erdoğan, even calling him a friend. Such close ties, along with Turkey's regional importance to Washington, analysts say, is a factor in Ankara's Western allies turning a blind eye to its ongoing trade with Russia. “I think Turkey has got a pass on several levels from Russian sanctions,” observed regional expert Sinan Ciddi of the Washington-based think tank the Foundation for Defense of Democracies. However, Ciddi cautions that Trump remains unpredictable and that previous actions are no guarantee for the future. “Past experience is not an indicator of future happenings. We just don't know what Trump will demand. This is not a fully predictive administration in Washington,” Ciddi said. “We do know right now that he [Trump] is very unhappy with Putin. He blames Putin for prolonging the Ukraine war,” added Ciddi. Change of stance "And if he feels sufficiently upset, there is a possibility that no waivers will be granted to any country. Turkey will be up against a very, very unappetising and unenviable set of choices to make.” Trump has successfully lobbied the European Union to increase its purchases of American liquefied natural gas (LNG), replacing Russian imports. Similar demands could put Ankara in a difficult position. “If Trump pressures Turkey not to buy Russian natural gas, that would definitely be a huge shock,” warned Yeşilada. “Trump might say, for instance: 'Buy energy from me or whatever.' But I don't think we're there yet. There is no way Turkey can replace Russian gas.” However, Trump could point to Turkey's recent expansion of its LNG facilities, which now include five terminals and have excess capacity to cover Russian imports, although storage facilities remain a challenge. Turkey's energy infrastructure is also built around receiving Russian energy, and any shift to American energy would likely be hugely disruptive and expensive, at a time when the Turkish economy is in crisis. Putin retains another energy card over Erdoğan. A Russian company is building a huge nuclear power plant in Turkey, which could account for 20 percent of the country's energy needs. Ciddi argues Erdoğan is now paying the price of over-relying on Russia. Turkey's Erdogan sees new Trump presidency as opportunity “There is no need to have resorted to making Ankara this dependent on natural gas, nuclear energy, or for that matter bilateral trade. This was a choice by Erdoğan,” said Ciddi. “The fact it is so dependent on so many levels in an almost unique way is something that Turkey will have to rethink.” But for now, Erdoğan will likely be relying on his expertise in diplomatic balancing acts, along with his close ties to Trump and Turkey's importance to Washington's regional goals, to once again escape the worst of any sanctions over Russian trade – although Trump may yet extract a price for such a concession.

The Inside Economics team turned lugubrious in this week's episode. Given this week's data dump showing that inflation is uncomfortably high and accelerating, and the job market and broader economy are struggling, it's hard not to be. They also consider what it all means for the Fed, which is in an increasingly difficult position, and prospects that the economy will fall off the narrow tight rope it is on, into recession. Guest: Dante DeAntonio, Senior Director of Economic Research, Moody's AnalyticsHosts: Mark Zandi – Chief Economist, Moody's Analytics, Cris deRitis – Deputy Chief Economist, Moody's Analytics, and Marisa DiNatale – Senior Director - Head of Global Forecasting, Moody's AnalyticsFollow Mark Zandi on 'X' and BlueSky @MarkZandi, Cris deRitis on LinkedIn, and Marisa DiNatale on LinkedInQuestions or Comments, please email us at helpeconomy@moodys.com.

In this expansive episode, Ghost dives deep into Africa's shifting alliances and the global scramble for critical resources. He opens with Trump's Africa Summit, where five West African nations were invited to Washington to negotiate trade deals centered on rare earth minerals, oil, and gas. Ghost methodically dissects NPR and AP coverage, showing how Western media narratives obscure the real incentives driving U.S. outreach, countering China's and Russia's growing footholds across the continent. Using detailed maps and timelines, he explains how military coups in Mali, Niger, and Burkina Faso have created a new power bloc aligned with Russia, and why Liberia, Gabon, and others were strategically selected for engagement. The conversation moves to the Pentagon's controversial investment in MP Materials, effectively nationalizing America's only rare earth mine to break dependence on Chinese supply chains. Ghost then pivots to Israel's turmoil, exploring how Netanyahu's government is trapped between domestic collapse, far-right coalition partners, and stalled Gaza negotiations. With plenty of sidebars, on rare earth land grabs, CIA-backed coups, and the long game of economic warfare, this episode is equal parts exposé and history lesson, revealing how old empires still pull the strings behind modern headlines.
