Podcasts about Torture

Focusing on India between the early nineteenth century and the First World War, Colonial Terror explores the centrality of the torture of Indian bodies to the law-preserving violence of colonial rule and some of the ways in which extraordinary violence was embedded in the ordinary operation of colonial states. Although enacted largely by Indians on Indian bodies, particularly by subaltern members of the police, the book argues that torture was facilitated, systematized, and ultimately sanctioned by first the East India Company and then the Raj because it benefitted the colonial regime, since rendering the police a source of terror played a key role in the construction and maitenance of state sovereignty.Drawing upon the work of both Giorgio Agamben and Michel Foucault, Colonial Terror contends, furthermore, that it is only possible to understand the terrorizing nature of the colonial police in India by viewing colonial India as a 'regime of exception' in which two different forms of exceptionality were in operation - one wrought through the exclusion of particular groups or segments of the Indian population from the law and the other by petty sovereigns in their enactment of illegal violence in the operation of the law. It was in such fertile ground, in which colonial subjects were both included within the domain of colonial law while also being abandoned by it, that torture was able to flourish.

https://patreon.com/marieshadowsHey friends,Today, I want to break down the Super Junior Tag League 2025 with you—every team, every potential story, and the bigger picture of where New Japan Pro Wrestling (NJPW) is right now. We're going to talk about everything: from Hiromu and Gato's wild mismatched team to the missed opportunities with AEW and other promotions.First off, the tag teams:Hiromu and Gato: Honestly, this is one of the strangest pairings in NJPW history. I love what both do in the ring, but I just can't take them seriously as a team. That said, they're the sleeper team to watch. Don't be surprised if they steal a few moments of the show.Ichiban Sweet Boys – Robbie Eagles and Kosei Fujita: Returning champions, last year's winners. They're going to be dominant, fun to watch, and could carry most of the tournament's spotlight. Robbie and Kosei always amplify the energy.Bullet Club War Dogs – Taiji Ishimori and Robbie X: Taiji is solid as ever. Robbie X? I feel he tries too hard with flashy moves that sometimes look cartoonish. Still, as a duo, they'll likely steal the show in the Tag League.El Desperado and Kukai: Debuting team with strong chemistry. El Desperado consistently picks quality partners, so this is one to keep an eye on.Tiger Mask and Yamato: Another debut pairing. Tiger Mask is heading into retirement, so this could be a fun send-off, though I'm not expecting them to win.Kushida and Yuki Yoshioka: Debuting as well. Kushida is incredible, but I don't see this team advancing far.House of Torture – Yoshinobu Kanemaru and Dick Togo: Expect chaos. Anything can happen here, and shenanigans will be guaranteed.IWGP Junior Tag Champs – Doki and Sho: These veterans always have tricks up their sleeves.Beyond the matches themselves, I want to talk about the bigger picture of NJPW:We need fresh storytelling. Repeating the same faces over and over is stifling. The Super Junior Tag League could have been an opportunity to bring in new teams from All Japan, Pro Wrestling NOAH, TNA, and even AEW. Instead, we're seeing missed opportunities for collaboration and growth.The AEW partnership is not serving NJPW well. Wrestlers aren't being utilized to maximize storylines, and money is being left on the table. For example, Jack Perry as a potential House of Torture member could've been huge for Super Junior, but it never materialized.The Dojo system is still strong, but it's no longer clear who the “next big stars” are. NJPW used to cultivate talent visibly and create a sense of legacy. That clarity is gone, and it affects fan engagement.NJPW must start building slowly, branching out, and taking control back. Partnerships are fine, but they shouldn't dictate who wins titles or who represents NJPW.Constructive criticism is key here. I love NJPW, and I will continue to use my voice to advocate for story growth, collaboration, and giving fans the chance to see new talent thrive. Blind positivity doesn't help anyone; we need balance—acknowledging flaws while celebrating strengths.I want to hear from you: how excited are you for the Super Junior Tag League 2025? Which teams do you think will shine? Let's keep this conversation thoughtful, honest, and constructive.Thanks for reading, engaging, and helping me keep independent wrestling commentary alive.

This week, while ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Dave Bittner⁠⁠⁠⁠ is on vacation, hosts ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Joe Carrigan⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠, and ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Maria Varmazis⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ (also host of the ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠T-Minus⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Space Daily show) are sharing the latest in social engineering scams, phishing schemes, and criminal exploits that are making headlines. Users are reporting a potential new Signal scam involving fake in-app messages posing as official support, though Signal confirms it never contacts users first and only communicates via Signal email addresses. Joe's story is on South Korea targeting Cambodia's scam industry after reports of kidnappings, torture, and a death, as officials crack down on criminal groups luring citizens into forced online fraud operations across Southeast Asia. Maria has the story on how AI-driven scams like deepfakes and virtual kidnappings are increasingly targeting Gen Z, using fake voices and videos to power extortion schemes that exploit their mobile-first, always-online lives. Listener DarkProphet6 shares a clever phishing attempt disguised as a fake Cloudflare “I'm not a robot” check, which tried to trick users into pasting malicious code into their terminal — a move that could have created a remote shell for attackers.

This week's show features stories from France 24, Radio Havana Cuba, and Radio Deutsche-Welle. http://youthspeaksout.net/swr251024.mp3 (29:00) From FRANCE- Start with press reviews on Trumps war in South America, bringing a large military force ostensibly against drug traffickers. Then Angela Diffley interviews Daniel Landsberg-Rodriguez from Northwestern University about the changing approach from the US in Latin America. He talks about the history of Gunboat Diplomacy in Venezuela in 1910, and new alliances with governments shifting to Populist anti-institutional leadership. Daniel calls it a contest of affinity, the more Trump style you are, like Argentina and El Salvador, the more privileged your treatment. Those countries wishing to remain independent, like Colombia and Venezuela, are facing the impositions of the 19th century From CUBA- The Colombian President Petro denies the Trump accusation that he involved in drug trafficking and says the Colombian military will not assist the US in overthrowing Maduro in Venezuela. He also accuses Trump of violating a free trade agreement between the nations, harming attempts to diversify agriculture in Colombia. Israel is continuing its raids in Gaza despite agreeing to a ceasefire, and in the West Bank Israeli settlers made 71 attacks on Palestinians in the past week, beating them and driving them off their property. From GERMANY- Israel released hundreds of Palestinian prisoners in exchange for hostages and many of them were tortured while in Israeli prisons without being charged with crimes. An interview with Helena Sola Martin of the World Organization Against Torture. She discusses the Israeli policy of detention without charging and banning the International Red Cross from monitoring the 18,000 Palestinians they detained. The prisoners reported beatings, lack of food and medicine, humiliation and cruelty.

The Quaker experiment at Eastern State Penitentiary was meant to be a sanctuary for the soul, a place to reform criminals through silence and reflection. Instead, it accidentally engineered a form of psychological torture: solitary confinement. This episode uncovers the complicated history of this "Great Experiment" and then journeys to the offices of AFSC Prison Watch, where a new generation of Quaker activists are confronting this legacy by listening to the raw, firsthand accounts of people who have survived the modern system.  ---------------------------------------------Westtown School, a leading Quaker day school for Pre-K to 12th grade is hosting Open Houses this Fall. Upper School, Saturday, October 25th, 9:30 to 11:30 a.m.Middle School, Thursday, October 30th, 9:00 to 11:30 a.m.Lower School, Wednesday, November 5th, 9:30 to 11:30 a.m.Learn more at www.westtown.edu/fall.

For nearly 175 years — from 1563 until its repeal in 1736 — this act stood as part of Scotland's law. In that time, it is estimated that 3,000 to 5,000 people were accused of witchcraft. Of those, a staggering 84 percent were women. Torture, often in the form of sleep deprivation and relentless interrogation, was routine. Executions followed — frequently by strangulation or burning — and their bodies were often destroyed so they could not even be buried, denied the final dignity of rest.Our guests know this story better than anyone.Today, we're joined by Claire Mitchell KC — a distinguished Scottish lawyer, specialising in criminal defence, constitutional and human rights law. She is co-founder of the Witches of Scotland campaign, which seeks posthumous pardons, a memorial, and an official apology for those persecuted under the Witchcraft Act.Zoe Venditozzi is a writer, teacher, and co-campaigner. Born and raised in Fife, she brings storytelling, archival curiosity, and moral urgency to this mission. Her literary debut Anywhere's Better Than Here won the Guardian's Not the Booker popular prize; now with Claire she's co-author of How to Kill a Witch: A Guide for the Patriarchy.Their new book weaves together legal history, archival testimony, fictional vignettes, and sharp critique. It lifts the stories of those accused — women, and a few men — out of dusty court records and into the present. It asks: how did this system become possible, and how do we make amends?

In this episode of the Crack House Chronicles Donnie and Dale tell the story of Colleen Slemmer and her murder by Christa Pike.  Christa Pike was 18-years-old when she thought her 19-year-old job corps classmate, Colleen Slemmer, was trying to steal her boyfriend, Tadaryl Shipp. Pike spent over 30-minutes beating Colleen with her hands and feet, as well as a box cutter and a meat cleaver. Colleen tried to escape. Shipp caught her so Pike could continue the beating. Pike carved a pentagram into her chest, used the box cutter to slice her throat. When she didn't die, Pike picked up a chunk of asphalt and slammed it onto her head. The next day Pike brought a piece of Colleen's skull to breakfast and told classmates what she had done. https://www.crackhousechronicles.com/ https://linktr.ee/crackhousechronicles https://www.tiktok.com/@crackhousechronicles https://www.facebook.com/crackhousechronicles Check out our MERCH! https://www.teepublic.com/user/crackhousechronicles SOURCES: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christa_Pike https://deathpenaltyinfo.org/tennessees-execution-of-christa-pike-would-make-her-the-first-woman-to-be-executed-in-the-state-in-over-200-years https://creators.spotify.com/pod/profile/unforbiddentruth/episodes/Interview-with-Christa-Pike-Part-II-ekpc39 https://creators.spotify.com/pod/profile/unforbiddentruth/episodes/Interview-with-Christa-Pike-Part-I-ekm9b5  

In this week's episode of Movie Torture, our fearless hosts dive into the 90s classic "The Faculty," where aliens take over a high school, and the only defense is snorting fake cocaine. Baby Hands Brad questions the allure of Josh Hartnett's hair, while the Gothfather Jacob ponders why the faculty didn't just throw salt on the aliens like snails. Meanwhile, The First Lady Hannah is just relieved she can watch this without nightmares. Join us as we explore why this movie is a triple gold despite being a one-time watch, and why Brad might just legally change his name to Fun Dip. Tune in for a nostalgic trip down memory lane, complete with alien fish people and a soundtrack that screams 90s angst.Checkout the new Hopecast website:https://thehopecastnetwork.com/Follow Movie Torture here:https://www.instagram.com/movietorturepod/Buy Merch here:https://www.bonfire.com/store/the-hopecast-network-swag/This show is brought to you by The Hopecast Networkhttps://www.instagram.com/hopecastnetwork/

September 11th, 2025, Yu Menglong, a Chinese actor with 25M followers is found dead in pools of his own blood after an alleged industry dinner party. Police quickly claim that he ‘drunkly fell' from the fifth floor of the luxury Beijing apartment and close his case. Chinese netizens couldn't disagree more. A list is released of all the high ranking celebrities that were alleged to have been at the fatal dinner party. A late-billionaire's wife who inherited all of his money after he suspiciously died in prison. A director known for his bright red hair and predatory behavior towards young male actors. An art director of a museum exhibit showcasing alleged preserved human torture scenes that was visited by Yu Menglong prior to his death. The husband of that same art director, who is also the owner of the luxury Beijing apartment where Yu Menglong ‘fell.' And those are just four of the 17 guests that netizens suspect were with Yu Menglong during the last moments of his life. That list plus his two beloved dogs that have also mysteriously ceased to exist. And what about the other ten different celebrities under Yu Menglong's same talent management who have also passed away under very suspicious circumstances? This is part two of the Yu Menglong case.   Full show notes available at RottenMangoPodcast.com Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

In 2011, the Syrian people rose up against Bashar al-Assad's regime. It was the start of a deadly civil war. Across the country, thousands of men, women and children were arbitrarily arrested. Throughout the 13 years of conflict, rape and sexual violence were systematically used as weapons of war, regardless of age or gender. In this powerful documentary, Asma, Yasmine and Houda chose to share their stories with FRANCE 24 journalists Dana Alboz and Assiya Hamza, who travelled to Turkey and Syria to meet these "survivors".

After a forty-eight-day ordeal, she was rescued, her brother wasn't. Surviving those weeks in the woods was only the beginning of her harrowing journey. In the following years she struggled to outrun her trauma, a pattern of self-destructive behavior shadowing her like an ever-worsening thunderstorm. But she still had hope buried deep inside, every bit as much as the little girl who had been held captive in the woods. This would be an all-new battle for Shasta. And she was determined not to lose.In this EXCLUSIVE Part 1 Episode, Shasta recounts in graphic and harrowing detail, the events leading up and including the murder of her family in front of her, and her abduction and the forty-eight day ordeal and her eventual escape!Shasta's experience has been turned into an amazing book by #1 New York Times Best Selling author Gregg Olsen who will feature along with Shasta in Part 2.  The book is: ‘OUT OF THE WOODS: A Girl, a Killer, and Lifelong Struggle to Find the Way Home'Gregg was able to get Shasta to open up and share her trauma. He is a true talent and an impassioned voice for victims and their families. Olsen has been a guest on Dateline, 48 Hours, 20/20, Good Morning America, CBS Mornings, Today, FOX News, CNN, Anderson Cooper, MSNBC, Entertainment Tonight, Snapped, Forensic Files, Inside Edition, Nancy Grace, Extra, Access Hollywood, NPR and Biography, among dozens of other shows. We can't wait to have them both on for PART 2 to understand Shasta's continued trauma recovery from this utterly devastating ordeal. Thank you Shasta we are blessed to have you.Out Of The Woods: https://a.co/d/1l3GoP9Wikipedia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joseph_Edward_DuncanSupport the show

Welcome to "Made Up Movie," where Ashley and Brad take listener-submitted pitches and turn them into cinematic gold, or at least something shiny. This week, Katie from Torrington, Wyoming, sends in a horror movie idea that quickly spirals into a sci-fi epic with more plot twists than a pretzel. As Brad pitches a dozen storylines at once, Ashley valiantly tries to keep the train on the tracks, all while debating whether a fart can really trigger a solar apocalypse. Spoiler: It can.

On January 15, 1974, 15-year-old Charlie Otero and his siblings came home in Wichita, Kansas, to find their family murdered — the first known victims of the BTK killer: Bind, Torture, Kill. Dennis Rader, a father, church leader, and city worker, hid in plain sight while terrorising a community for decades. After years of taunting the police, he was finally caught in 2005. His daughter, Kerri Rawson, later shared her story. In the new Netflix documentary My Father the BTK Killer, director Skye Borgman explores Kerri’s journey. She also directed Unknown Number, about Kendra Licari — the mother who anonymously harassed her own daughter online for nearly a year. Skye joins us to talk about both disturbing true crime stories. Watch My Father, the BTK Killer here and Unknown Number: The High School Catfish here.

Earlier this month, the UN Subcommittee on the Prevention of Torture visited Aotearoa for the first time since 2013. The delegation made a range of unannounced visits to facilities such as prisons, police stations, and youth justice and protection residencies.     The end of visit observations included a repeated emphasis on strengthening investment in and utility of our National Preventative Mechanism - the collective of Aotearoa's independent statutory organisations tasked with advancing the kaupapa to keep detained people safe.   The subcommittee's final report will be delivered to Aotearoa's government, which is then up to government discretion whether the document is made public.    Producer Jasmine Gray spoke to Meg de Ronde, CEO of Te Kāhui Tika Tangata (Human Rights Commission) - the coordinating body of the National Preventative Mechanism - about the subcommittee's statements.

Yu Menglong, a famous actor is confirmed to be dead. The authorities say he fell to his death from the 5th floor of a luxury Beijing apartment that wasn't his.They say it's just a drunk accident and quickly rule out any foul play. They don't investigate the dozen plus partygoers in the apt that evening…They don't even investigate further into his death.   Instead, the authorities begin censoring any netizens openly questioning the events of that night. Livestreams are shut down mid-stream.Comments and profiles get taken down and deleted. Still, netizens are one step ahead as a video slips through the cracks.Bloodcurdling screams are captured on audio. A man begging for his life between cries. A conspiracy spreads like wildfire: Yu Menglong was tortured to death after he swallowed a USB containing government secrets. Could there be truth to this theory? Why would a government go so far to censor a movie star's death? And why are there rumors saying his mother has now gone missing…   Full show notes at RottenMangoPodcast.com Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

The common view of hell is that it is a place of separation from God where the unrighteous suffer eternal conscious torment (ECT) in a fire with no relief and no hope of escape. Problem 1: ECT contradicts scriptures that speak of the destruction of the wicked, including Gen 3:19-23; Ps 1:6; 37:9-11, 20-22, 28-29, 34, 37-38; 92:7; 145:20; Prov 2:21-22; 12:7; 24:10-20; Is 66:15-16, 23-24; Mal 4:1-3; Mat 3:11-12; 7:13-14; 10:28; Jn 3:16; 5:28-29; Rom 6:23; 2 Thes 1:6-9; Heb 10:26-27; 2 Pet 2:6, 12-13; 3:7. Problem 2: ECT violates the ethic of proportional justice. Torturing the wicked forever is out of proportion to their crimes. Since we know that Yahweh judges with righteousness and equity (Ps 9:7-8), he cannot also be excessive in his punishment. Problem 3: ECT implies that God is cruel. If you had a friend who was so sensitive and offendable that he wished to punish his enemies by tormenting them forever, what would that tell you about his character? God is not sadistic; he is loving, gracious, merciful, and just (Ex 34:6-7; Deut 32:4; Jer 9:24). When the day of judgement comes, the dead will rise and stand before the judge (Rev 20:11-15). Those not in the book of life will be annihilated. In Rev 20:10 (and 14:9-11) John saw a vision of people getting eternally tormented in a lake of fire. In Rev 21:7-8, we learn that the symbol of people getting tormented in a lake of fire actually refers to “the second death.”The post Who Told You That? Hell Is a Place of Eternal Torture first appeared on Living Hope.

In 1985, what seemed on the surface to be a routine call for petty theft soon escalated into something unimaginable. Authorities arrived on the scene and began questioning the suspect, only to find that his face didn't match the picture on the ID provided, the car's registration showed that it belonged to someone else, and more disturbingly, the suspect had a pistol with an illegal silencer in the trunk of his car. Things would only get more confusing as the suspected admitted to living under false names, and mentioned several others as well. But before the police could pry any deeper, he had swallowed a cyanide pill and died in the hospital days later. Part 1 - We trace the background of the suspect, revealed as Leonard Lake, as well as that of his mysterious partner, Charles Ng. Part 2 - We pick up from the heinous crimes that the duo have embarked upon within their bunker, and the disturbing details that would be uncovered from its depths.

In this episode of Movie Torture, Brad, Jacob, Hannah and MTD bravely tackle "I Know What You Did Last Summer," a film that Brad lovingly refers to as "straight dookie." Join the crew as they unravel the mystery of why anyone thought this movie needed a sequel. With a plot twist that even a pretzel would envy and characters as memorable as last week's grocery list, Brad's disdain reaches new heights. Meanwhile, Hannah surprises everyone by finding a silver lining in this cinematic storm, proving that one person's trash is another's... well, still trash. Tune in for a rollercoaster of sarcasm, laughter, and Brad's epic rants! Plus, MTD reminds Brad of their 1997 theater outing to see the original during Brad's military graduation—a memory Brad had conveniently blocked out. Adding to the hilarity, Brad recounts how MTD, armed with a trusty VHS camcorder, managed to record the wrong guy at his graduation, mistaking him for Brad.
