Podcasts about Tragedy

When Elzire Dionne gave birth to five identical babies, she caught the attention of reporters and doctors hundreds of miles away, the Chicago World's Fair – and the Ontario government. Before the quintuplets were ten months old, they passed a new law: the Dionne Quintuplet Guardianship Act. “These children are our own royal family.”  Sarah Miller's book is The Miracle and Tragedy of the Dionne Quintuplets.

California will rename Cesar Chavez Day after the New York Times reported Wednesday that the labor icon had sexually abused, assaulted and raped girls and women, including his longtime collaborator Dolores Huerta. The Times' yearslong investigation, which was corroborated by more than 60 interviews and hundreds of farmworker union records, broke decades of silence by Chavez's victims, who said they refrained from speaking for fear of tarnishing the union leader's storied reputation. As Californians reel from revelations that upend popular assumptions about Chavez, we talk about how his legacy's being reshaped and hear your reactions. Guests: Miriam Pawel, journalist and author, "The Crusades of Cesar Chavez: A Biography" Manny Fernandez, California editor-at-large, The New York Times Matthew J. Garcia, professor of Latin American, Latino and Caribbean studies, Dartmouth College; author, "From the Jaws of Victory: The Triumph and Tragedy of Cesar Chavez and the Farm Workers Movement" Alexandra Macedo, assemblywoman representing California's 33rd assembly district, which includes Fresno County, Kings County and Tulare County Learn more about your ad choices.

What happens when life keeps knocking you down — job loss, divorce, the death of a child, a failing business, a spinal crisis — and you keep getting back up anyway? In this powerful episode, Dr. Debi sits down with Jarrod Barakett , President of Light Systems, to explore one of the most remarkable resilience stories you'll ever hear. Jarrod Barakett's journey is a masterclass in accountability, forward-focused thinking, and the healing power of frequency — and his message will stay with you long after the episode ends.  About Jarrod Barakett   Jarrod Barakat is the President of Light Systems, a global wellness technology company with centers in dozens of countries worldwide. Jarrod has rebuilt his life multiple times through tragedy, betrayal, and loss. He's a passionate advocate for personal accountability, intentional living, and the body's innate capacity to heal.  What You'll Hear in This Episode  How a jealous boss ended Jarrod's 30-year career in golf — and what he did the very next morning that set the tone for everything that followed  Why Jarrod refused to ask "why me?" and instead asked "what's next?" — and the visualization practice his father taught him at age 8 that made this possible  The devastating loss of his 12-year-old daughter in a boating accident in 2018, and how he found the will to keep going  How a business partner's addiction cost Jarrod what was meant to be his retirement — and why he still refuses to see himself as a victim  The spinal crisis that left him facing potential paralysis, and the technology that helped him return to the gym at week 10 (when doctors said wait six months)  Why Jarrod tried three therapists and found that his support network of close friends and family served him better — and what that teaches us about finding the right healing path for you  The concept of personal accountability as a healing tool: how Jarrod came to understand that the frequency we put out shapes everything around us  Key Takeaways  Betrayal doesn't have to define your trajectory. Jarrod was fired by a jealous boss after a 30-year career. His response: shower, get dressed, go to the "office" — even when the office was an unfinished basement. He never stopped showing up.  Forward focus is a decision. The lesson Jarrod taught his daughter — and lives himself — is to stop thinking about what was and start thinking about what will be. It sounds simple. It isn't. It's a daily, intentional choice.  Grief doesn't have a timeline, but responsibility doesn't pause. After losing his daughter, Jarrod returned to work within two weeks — not because he was healed, but because his family needed him. He shares this honestly, without pretending it was the right call, but with deep insight into what kept him moving.  Your support system is everything. When tragedy strikes, the people you've invested in over a lifetime show up. Fifty friends flew in from Montreal and Boston for his daughter's funeral. That network was decades in the making.  You are 100% accountable — and that's actually empowering. Jarrod's most powerful insight: if you are fully accountable for every outcome in your life, then you are also fully capable of changing your future. The power is yours.  The body responds to frequency. After emergency spinal surgery, Jarrod discovered Light Systems technology — and went from excruciating post-surgical pain to training in the gym at week 10. The body knows how to heal when we give it what it needs.  Resources & Links  Find Jarrod on Instagram: @ JarrodBarakett   Learn more about Light Systems technology and find a center near you: lightsystems.com  If This Episode Resonated With You...  If you've experienced betrayal — whether by a person, a business partner, or life itself — and you're wondering how to find your way through, this conversation is proof that the human spirit is more resilient than we imagine. Share this episode with someone who needs it today.  When life delivers blow after blow — job loss, divorce, the death of a child, business betrayal, spinal surgery — how do you keep getting back up? Jarrod Barakett shares his raw, remarkable story of resilience, accountability, and healing through the power of frequency and forward-focused thinking.

Welcome to a heavy, packed episode of the Afterburn Podcast. Today, we are covering breaking news out of the Middle East, rapid tactical escalations, and a highly concerning mystery stateside. We open today's show by addressing the tragic breaking news regarding the U.S. Air Force KC-135 Stratotanker mishap in western Iraq. We discuss the known details of the mid-air collision during high-tempo Operation Epic Fury refueling operations, the inherent and often-overlooked dangers of nighttime tanking under combat conditions, and we honor the American crew members who lost their lives. Next, we transition into our Day 13 update for Operation Epic Fury. The U.S. has unleashed the colossal 30,000-pound GBU-57 Massive Ordnance Penetrator (MOP). We analyze the strategic strike on the Parchin military complex outside of Tehran, a facility long suspected of nuclear weapon development. Despite the regime's efforts to harden the site, the deployment of the "Mountain Buster" proves there is nowhere to hide. Finally, we close out the episode with the bizarre and unsettling news regarding retired Major General William Neil McCasland. We discuss the details surrounding his sudden disappearance from his New Mexico home, the active Silver Alert issued by the Bernalillo County Sheriff's Office, and the wild speculation—ranging from his past command at the Phillips Research Site at Kirtland AFB to the resurfacing of old UAP and Roswell lore—that has taken over the internet in his absence.   00:00 Intro 01:56 KC-135 06:01 Day 13 Update 14:57 General MaCasland    Air Force Officer Qualifying Test (AFOQT) Prep with AFOQT Wingman https://afoqtwingman.com/Code: AFTERBURN for 10% off

xAttack on Michigan Synagogue. Tragedy and Heroism at ODU's ROTC. Bombing Civilians is Bad. Trump Drops Russian Oil Sanctions. UFO General Missing. RIP Rick Bolanos. Mid-East F1 Cancelled. American caskets are coming home again. In this fierce, fiery Friday episode, Paul Rieckhoff breaks down the escalating “Iran overflow” war, the KC‑135 crash that killed six American service members, the growing drumbeat of troop movements into the Middle East, and the total failure of Congress to do its job on questions of war and peace. He calls out Trump's illegal “no quarter” rhetoric, Pete Hegseth's authoritarian war on the press, ICE's abuses at home, and the dangerous normalization of UFC “Freedom Fights 250” on the White House lawn—while reminding listeners why if you're not angry, you're not paying attention.​ Then Medal of Freedom recipient, Air Force veteran, and TAPS founder Bonnie Carroll returns to go deeper on what really happens when someone is killed in action, in training, in terror attacks at home—or lost to suicide. Paul and Bonnie unpack the brutal realities of casualty notifications, the lifelong journey for surviving families, and the heroic work TAPS is doing right now for the loved ones of those lost in Iran, Iraq, Old Dominion, Michigan, and beyond—and how you can help. It's a powerful conversation about grief, courage, accountability, and hope that will leave you informed, inspired, and ready to stay vigilant. -WATCH full video of this episode here. -Check out and support TAPS and all of their programs.

Hello everyone!! Today we're starting off with our new kinds of episodes, as we discuss a more broad element... the discourse on the new Oddyssey film! We've often talked about historical representation, mythology, and what "historical accuracy" can mean, but not as directly as of yet. So this time we went full into some of the terrible ways those are all used, distanced from any interesting or useful cultural critique, and only a terrible weapon to brandish. So come along as we seek to prepare ourselves and others to not fall into those same pitfalls and traps that are misrepresenting and confusing all at once. Enjoy! Video Mentioned:

They also share insights from Odesa on the repair of the electrical grid and the ongoing struggle against infrastructure attacks. And do an analysis of the ongoing dispute with Hungary and Ukraine's growing diplomatic influence in the Gulf. Join Saul and Julius for an atmospheric debrief on the endurance of the Ukrainian spirit, captured in transit as they head toward the final leg of their tour.

Melanie Gibb was the last person outside the family to see JJ Vallow alive.She was Lori's best friend. She heard Chad Daybell's zombie talk. She knew the children were missing. And when Lori asked her to lie to police, she finally understood: she'd been used as an alibi for murder.This is Part 4 of "The Chosen Ones," Hidden Killers' examination of spiritual abuse and religious trauma through the Vallow-Daybell case. Today we focus on the believers — the people around Chad Daybell and Lori Vallow who watched the transformation and didn't intervene.Alex Cox killed his sister's husband and her children because he believed Chad Daybell's doctrine about zombies. He told his wife to shoot him in the face if he ever became one too.Zulema Pastenes participated in castings and married Alex two weeks before he died.Chad Daybell's adult children testified at his trial — for the defense.Charles Vallow reached out to Lori's family for help and got nothing.This episode asks the hardest question about high control religion: When someone you love becomes dangerous, what's your responsibility?

Feeling overwhelmed by nonstop headlines, collective anxiety, and the wild world of pop culture? In this episode of Culture Changers, I dive into the phenomenon that is The Pitt the cult-favorite HBO medical drama that's suddenly become the most patriotic show on TV (according to a New York Times opinion piece by Frank Bruni). If you're obsessed with medical dramas, hosPittal lore, or just want to know why everyone's talking about nepo baby actors, aging double standards (ahem, Noah Wyle), or the enigma of Nurse Dana's accent, you're in the right place. I break down what sets The Pitt apart, including its gritty, real-time storytelling, behind-the-scenes accuracy with real ER consultants, and its wild Reddit fandom. We'll talk about the show's reflection of America's collective grief, the burnout crisis in healthcare, and why this gritty drama mirrors our chaotic news cycles and cultural divisions better than anything else on TV. I gleefully dissect the fan theories, messier character arcs (is Santos a sociopath or just the ultimate survivor?), and the secret sauce behind why this show is unmissable for culture critics and pop culture junkies alike. No guest today. Just you, me, snarky hot takes, and a big reminder that the stories we obsess over are way deeper than just water cooler gossip.  I talk about: Collective grief reflected in medical dramas Assumptions and embracing human complexity Empathy vs. lack of empathy in healthcare Pop culture's impact on real-world behaviors Nuance in political and social identity Trauma and resilience in modern society Fan culture and community through entertainment Timestamps: 00:00 The Pitt: Season Two Insights 03:31 Realism and Reflection in Drama 07:09 Navigating Grief and Uncertainty 11:51 Dr. Mel: America's favorite Doc 15:59 Light, Funny, and Profound 18:06 The Halo Effect and Trust 21:50 Santos: Polarizing, Resilient, Badass 26:04 Tragedy, Judgment, and Understanding 31:37 The Pitt: Resilience in Crisis 32:49 Resilience, Joy, and Perspectives 38:26 Togetherness and Finding Your Voice —--------------------------------------------------------- Links and Mentions: Watch HBO's The Pitt: https://play.hbomax.com/show/e6e7bad9-d48d-4434-b334-7c651ffc4bdf Frank Bruni's Opinion Piece in the NYT on the Pitt: https://www.nytimes.com/2026/02/23/opinion/pitt-america-tv.html Prestige TV's Podcast Episode Breakdown of the Pitt: https://youtu.be/8sB0lR0nKYk?si=nywnnbKi6CfNPk3N To Connect With Me: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/allison__hare LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/allisonhare/ Website: https://allisonhare.com Book a free podcast clarity call with Allison: https://allisonhare.com/freecall Be sure to rate, review, and follow this podcast on your player and also, connect with me IRL for more goodness and life-changing stuff.Schedule a FREE podcast clarity call with me - Your future audience is out there.

What does the Bible say about responding to personal tragedy? In the wake of a heartbreaking loss in the North Hall community, this sermon addresses the question many people ask in moments of grief: Why, God? What we believe to be true is often in conflict with what we feel, especially after tragedy. Scripture doesn't ignore suffering—it speaks directly to it. Are you in a place of honest lament before God? Many faithful people in the Bible asked the same question—Why? Discover how God works even through pain to shape our lives, both for now and for eternity. 

On June 21, 2020 Gavin Caruso and Courtney Henderson were in the midst of what would become a rescue that alters the course of both their lives. They had gone to Colorado for an adventure, and an adventure is what they got, though they hadn't intended to fall down the mountain. With a thunderstorm surrounding them, search and rescue trying to navigate the difficult terrain and both bleeding from their heads, it was up to Gavin and Courtney to survive. It is as they are extracted, though, that one of them dies. Welcome back to Tragedy with a View.

On this day, 10 March 1920, the El Bordo mine fire occurred in Pachuca, Mexico, which killed dozens of miners. The fire broke out at 6 AM, and there was a brief evacuation period before the mine shafts were sealed shut. Officials of the United States Smelting, Refining and Mining Company claimed that after the evacuation fewer than 10 workers remained inside, all of whom were declared to be dead by company doctors. When the mine was finally reopened six days later, it was clear that the company had been lying. Inside were the charred bodies of 87 miners: many of whom had reached the exit of the mine, but were burned to death as they were unable to leave. Miraculously, seven miners had even managed to survive despite being trapped underground. As in almost all historical examples of corporations killing their workers, no bosses were prosecuted or punished.More information, sources and map: https://stories.workingclasshistory.com/article/8217/el-bordo-fireOur work is only possible because of support from you, our listeners on patreon.

In Shakespeare's Hamlet, guilt does not stay buried. It festers beneath crowns and costumes, slipping through rehearsed smiles and whispered prayers. A kingdom rots from the inside, not because of the murder alone, but because of the secret that follows it,  heavy and impossible to silence. “O, my offence is rank,” King Claudius confesses, discovering that even a throne cannot shield a poisoned conscience. In the bedroom of a teenager, centuries later, those same words would land a little too close to home.In this case we will explore a modern tragedy shaped by Shakespearean shadows: ambition without a crown, desperation without a dagger, and a confession that would echo far beyond the pages of a play. Because sometimes the most dangerous poison isn't poured into a cup, it's carried in the heart, waiting for its moment to speak.Sourceshttps://www.texasmonthly.com/true-crime/poisoning-daddy/https://www.folger.edu/explore/shakespeares-works/hamlet/read/3/3/https://www.sigmaaldrich.com/US/en/product/sigald/243671https://www.newspapers.com/image/644815133/?terms=Marie%20Robardshttps://www.newspapers.com/image/823666883/?match=1&terms=Marie%20Robardshttps://www.newspapers.com/image/644815129/?match=1&terms=Marie%20Robardshttps://www.newspapers.com/image/646308983/?match=1&terms=Marie%20Robards

Finding Hope in the Deepest Pain   What happens when the unthinkable becomes your reality—and yet you still choose faith? In today's deeply moving episode, Leslie sits down with Hope Hooton, a courageous mother, advocate, and follower of Jesus whose life changed forever in May 2024 when her two children, Alec and Lydia, were tragically killed during court-ordered visitation with their father. In the midst of unspeakable grief, Hope has chosen to trust God and use her voice to protect other children. Through her testimony, advocacy, and new memoir releasing today, Hope reminds us that even in devastating loss, God's presence can still be found—and that purpose can rise from the deepest pain.   Key Takeaways Recognizing the Red Flags of Abuse Looking back, Hope can now clearly see the warning signs in her marriage—manipulation, gaslighting, emotional control, financial abuse, and power struggles. Abuse rarely starts dramatically; it often unfolds subtly over time. Naming these patterns is the first step toward protecting yourself and your children. When Systems Fail to Protect Children Despite documented domestic violence and severe mental illness, the court granted Hope's husband unsupervised visitation with their young children. This devastating decision highlights a heartbreaking reality many mothers face: the family court system often prioritizes parental rights over child safety. Faith That Holds in the Darkest Night After losing her children, Hope's life as she knew it disappeared overnight. Yet in her grief, she clung tightly to God's presence—spending time in prayer, journaling, and meditating on Scripture. Proverbs 3:5–6 became her lifeline: “Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding.” Turning Tragedy Into Purpose Hope refused to allow her children's story to end in silence. Through her social media platform Hope In The Pain, she shares encouragement, faith, and the reality of walking through grief with God. She also hosts the Voices Against Filicide Podcast, raising awareness about domestic violence, the abuse cycle, and cases of child homicide across the country. Honoring Alec and Lydia Through Advocacy Hope is now working with Arizona lawmakers to create stronger protections for children in custody cases. Her advocacy is helping bring critical attention to how family courts handle domestic violence and mental illness when making custody decisions.   Resources Mentioned Hope's New Memoir is Available TODAY (March 9): There's Still Hope: A Journey of Adversity, Tragedy, and Unbreakable Faith Arizona Legislation Honoring Alec & Lydia Arizona legislation HB2995 has already passed the Arizona House of Representatives and is now moving forward to the Arizona Senate. This bill, referred to as The Alec and Lydia Act, aims to strengthen protections for children in family court cases by ensuring judges receive training in domestic violence, coercive control, trauma response, and mental illness when making custody decisions. Please join us in praying that this legislation passes the Arizona Senate, helping protect vulnerable children and families across the state.

Join us to hear from renowned historian Frank Dikötter, who offers a commanding history recasting how communists seized power in China. In April 1927, soldiers and detectives descended upon the Russian Embassy in Beijing, revolvers drawn. An hour later, they emerged with a trove of documents, some of them partly damaged by Russians who had tried quickly to destroy them. In these singed and soggy papers was proof that Moscow, despite agreeing three years earlier not to “propagate communistic doctrines,” had, in fact, sent what amounts to millions in today's dollars—along with shiploads of arms and advisors—to support nothing less than a revolution in China.  These findings are hardly ever mentioned by historians—until now. Dikötter says the history of modern China has long been framed as an organic enterprise, wherein Communists mobilized the “peasants,” took land from the rich and redistributed it to the poor. Drawing on the Beijing raid as well as several other overlooked archives, Dikötter's new book Red Dawn Over China reveals how unlikely a communist victory actually was, had it not been for massive financial and military support from the Soviet Union; a brutal war of occupation by Japan; severe miscalculations by the United States; and—most of all—the Communist Party's unflinching will to conquer at all costs. Dikötter reveals how what began in 1921 with 13 delegates in a dusty room led to a red flag being raised over the Forbidden City in 1949, forever altering the course of history for a quarter of humanity and shaping the global balance of power as we know it today.  About the Speaker: Frank Dikötter is the Milias Senior Fellow at the Hoover Institution, Stanford University. He is also Chair Professor of Humanities at the University of Hong Kong. His books have changed the way historians view China, from the classic The Discourse of Race in Modern China to his award-winning People's Trilogy, a series of books that document the lives of ordinary people under Mao: Mao's Great Famine: The History of China's Most Devastating Catastrophe; The Tragedy of Liberation: A History of the Chinese Revolution, 1945-1957; and The Cultural Revolution: A People's History, 1962-1976.

In this episode, I'm joined by the incredibly inspiring Scarlett Lewis, founder of the Choose Love Movement. Scarlett is the mother of Jesse, who was tragically killed in the Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting in 2012. When I first heard her speak about forgiving the shooter, I was deeply moved and I knew we had to have this conversation on the podcast. This episode explores how we navigate unimaginable shock and grief, and the profound choice we all have when faced with tragedy: to live from fear and anger, or to choose love. Scarlett shares how she found her way through the darkest moment of her life and how that journey became the foundation for a global movement teaching children and communities how to respond to challenges with courage, compassion, and connection. If you've ever experienced loss, supported someone through heartbreak, or wondered how healing and forgiveness are even possible after tragedy, this conversation will touch your heart and leave you feeling deeply inspired. We talk about: Moving through shock and grief, and finding your way back to real moments of joy How the Choose Love Movement is shaping the next generation of children Forgiveness as a practice that can give you your power back (without bypassing the pain) How to create meaning after loss, and let love become something you live and pass on Where to find Scarlett: Website: chooselovemovement.org Instagram: @chooselovemovement

Deep within Navajo culture lives a creature that was once human — a witch who murdered their own family to gain the power to shapeshift, possess the living, and control the dead.*No AI Voices Are Used In The Narration Of This Podcast*IN THIS EPISODE: The Navajo believe there are places where the powers of both good and evil are present and that those powers can be harnessed for either. And the masters of these powers are the skinwalkers. (Skinwalking Witches) *** If you hear the words “murder” and “London” you immediately think of Jack the Ripper – but he is only one of many brutal murderers who prowled the foggy city looking for victims. We'll look at some of the most gruesome in London's history. (Murderous London) *** Since it was built in 1981, the Sunshine Skyway Bridge connecting St. Petersburg to Tampa, Florida has been a harbinger of tragedy. The four-mile-long bridge rises like a mastodon 430 feet into the bright sunlight. On or around the bridge, there have been hundreds of suicides, as well as deadly shipwrecks. And in 2016, there was the heinous murder of a child let down by the very system designed to protect her. (The Bridge to Tragedy) *** You've probably seen a street artist in person or on video appearing to defy gravity – floating as in mid-air, hoping you'll give them some of your pocket change. And of course you've seen magicians levitate the beautiful assistant, or levitate themselves. But then there are those who say they can do it for real – no trickery involved. Some are laughable, but others make you wonder.
