Welcome back to Collecting Issues, your monthly comic book club! To close out 2025, we are wading deep into the bog of Irish Myth to discuss Tuatha, the stunning one-shot from Irish creator Gavin Fullerton, published by IDW Comics.If Samurai Jack and Hellboy had a baby and sent it on a grim quest across a war-torn ancient Ireland, it would look like this.In this episode, Michael and Benjamin break down this largely silent visual masterpiece. We explore how Fullerton strips away the "Leprechaun Museum" version of folklore to reveal the gritty, bloody roots of Celtic legend.Join us as we decode the hidden mythological references scattered throughout the book; from the Brown Bull of Cooley to the Dagda, and discuss why this might be the best visual storytelling of the year.In this episode, we cover:Visual Storytelling: How Gavin Fullerton uses silent narrative and cinematic paneling to tell a story of grief and duty.Mythology Decoded: We identify the cameos from Irish Legend, including Queen Maeve, Cú Chulainn (maybe?), The Dagda, and Balor of the Evil Eye.The Vibe: Why this feels like "Dark Souls" meets an apocalyptic end to the Age of Myth.That Dog: Emotional damage and the fate of the protagonist's wolfhound.2026 Reading Schedule: We've announced our lineup for the first half of 2026!

November 3, 1880. Congressman James Garfield wakes up on his quiet farm in Ohio to learn that he's been elected President of the United States. He never campaigned to be on the ticket. He never wanted the presidency. But the nation, weary of corruption and hungry for reform, has chosen him to lead. But four months after taking office, Garfield will be shot by a man who believes he's owed a government position. And the president's short, remarkable life will end in tragedy. This week, we're talking with writer and showrunner Mike Makowsky, creator of the new Netflix series Death by Lightning, about the extraordinary story of America's forgotten president. How did Garfield rise from poverty to the presidency? What might he have achieved if he'd lived? And what does his assassination reveal about political violence, then and now? Death by Lightning releases on Netflix on November 6th. It's an adaptation of Destiny of the Republic by Candace Millard, which we also consulted for this episode. -- Get in touch: historythisweekpodcast@history.com  Follow on Instagram: @historythisweek Follow on Facebook: ⁠HISTORY This Week Podcast⁠ To stay updated: http://historythisweekpodcast.com To learn more about listener data and our privacy practices visit: https://www.audacyinc.com/privacy-policy Learn more about your ad choices.

With the sad and tragic event of Charlie Kirk's assassination, the self-professing prophets are once again claiming that they received words from the Lord pertaining to it. While some individuals are promoting their books in the process, others are claiming recycled words that they appropriated to another event now to Charlie Kirk. Join me as we look at two of these prophets, and we consider their alleged prophetic words and the current events in light of Scripture.

In this powerful episode of the BraveCo Podcast, Jason dives deep into the tragic shooting of Charlie Kirk and the impact it has on men and society today. As a man of faith and experience, Jason shares his raw emotions, reflecting on the loss of a fearless truth-teller who stood up for freedom and faith in the face of hate. This episode is not just about mourning the loss of Charlie Kirk, but about what it means for men to stand up in a time when masculinity is being shamed, truth is under attack, and the world feels more volatile than ever.Jason challenges men to reflect on their own lives and the role they play in the battle for truth.

Whether it's through being a strong leader in your family, standing for what's right in your community, or defending truth in the face of opposition, this podcast calls men to rise up and take action. It's not about making noise online—it's about living with integrity, purpose, and boldness in every area of life.Finally, Jason highlights the importance of getting back to the basics—immersing ourselves in Scripture, taking on the armor of God, and preparing ourselves for the spiritual battles we face every day. Charlie Kirk's life serves as a wake-up call, reminding us that we're all in a fight for truth, faith, and morality. Now is the time for men to step up, and this episode serves as a clarion call for every man to take responsibility for his role in the kingdom of God.Timestamps:00:00 - Introduction to the Episode and Charlie Kirk's Tragic Death00:27 - Reflecting on 9/11: A Day of Tragedy and Loss01:04 - Charlie Kirk's Legacy: A Fearless Freedom Fighter02:17 - How Charlie Kirk Handled Hate and Conflict with Grace03:31 - The Real Threat: Why People Hated the Truth Charlie Presented05:12 - The Impact of Charlie Kirk's Life on Our Generation08:21 - Losing a Voice to the Youth: The Tragedy for America11:29 - What It Means for Men to Stand Up in This Cultural Battle16:06 - How to Take Action and Make a Difference as a Man of Faith20:56 - The Call to Engage in the Battle and Be Fully EquippedABOUT BRAVECOWe live in a time where men are hunting for the truth and looking for the codebook to manhood.

Just after 8:00 pm on the evening of February 19, 1994, thirty-one-year-old Gloria Ramirez was admitted to Riverside General Hospital with what Emergency Room staff believed were symptoms of a heart attack. When Ramirez failed to respond to the medications and emergency treatments, medical staff began preparations for defibrillation; however, when they removed the woman's shirt, they were surprised to find her skin covered in an oily sheen and her body seemed to be emitting an odd fruity odor. Stranger still, when a nurse took a blood sample from the woman's arm, the blood smelled of ammonia and appeared to have slightly yellow particles floating in it. The nurse turned to leave the room, intending to take the sample for immediate analysis, but she didn't even make it to the door before she lost consciousness and was caught by a coworker before her limp body hit the floor. Less than an hour after she was admitted to the Riverside General Emergency Room, Gloria Ramirez was pronounced dead, but her story was far from over.Within hours of Ramirez's visit to the ER, medical personnel who attended her that evening became sick with symptoms typically associated with insecticide poisoning (tremors, apnea, burning skin), and several required hospitalization. In the days and weeks that followed, the doctors and nurses who'd come into direct contact with Ramirez continued to experience bizarre symptoms that seemed to defy logical explanation and left everyone wondering, how had a seemingly ordinary woman's body been transformed into Trojan horse of toxicity most associated with chemical warfare?Thank you to the Amazing Dave White (of BRING ME THE AXE PODCAST) for research and writing assistance!ReferencesAyers, B.

John talks about Turning Point USA founder and CEO Charlie Kirk who was shot and killed during a speaking engagement at Utah Valley University in Orem, Utah. News of the assassination spread quickly across social media and details, and suspects, are still unknown at this time. Kirk, at only 31, had become a major influence in MAGA politics and his Turning Point USA organization helped codify far-right conservative ethos among an entire generation of young Americans. At the exact same moment, in Colorado, another school shooting left three students critically wounded. The 46th and 47th school shootings this year. John discusses this and other news with podcast star Bob Cesca; Desimber Rose and Dillon Naber Cruz AKA The God Squad; and legal analyst Dr. Tracy Pearson.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

8/8. The tragic death of Patroclus is a pivotal moment in The Iliad, rendered intensely by Professor Emily Wilson. Despite Achilles's warning, Patroclus, wearing Achilles's armor, pushes too far and is killed by Hector, with Apollo's intervention. This event unleashes Achilles's terrifying rage, propelling him back into battle in new, divine armor crafted by Hephaestus. Achilles's subsequent, relentless slaughter, even against the river god, is driven by his all-consuming quest to avenge Patroclus, culminating in the brutal confrontation with Hector. 1600 HECTOR

When Harold Dahl saw UFOs over Puget Sound in 1947, he never expected a visit from a man in black who would threaten him to keep quiet—spawning a phenomenon that would haunt UFO witnesses for decades.Join the DARKNESS SYNDICATE: https://weirddarkness.com/syndicateTake the WEIRD DARKNESS LISTENER SURVEY and help mold the future of the podcast: https://weirddarkness.com/surveyIN THIS EPISODE: The Bermuda Triangle isn't the only watery region with a reputation for unexplainable events and tragedies. For centuries, a triangular portion of Lake Michigan has been ground zero for sunken ships, disappearing crews, and vanishing aircraft. As if these incidents aren't creepy enough, what is now known as the Lake Michigan Triangle is also notorious for UFO sightings and strange lights appearing on the horizon. (The Lake Michigan Paranormal Triangle) *** There's a beast living in the woodlands outside of Rhinelander, Wisconsin – and its description is beyond belief. I'll introduce you to the hodag! (Meet the Hodag) *** Sylvia Plath died by suicide at the age of 30 on February 11, 1963, following a barrage of literary rejections and her husband's infidelity. We'll look at her haunting story and tragic death. (The Tragic Death of Sylvia Plath) *** It's approximately four hundred years old, full of colorful illustrations of plants, flowers, the stars, women, medicinal herbs, and text… yet no one has been able to decipher exactly what the Voynich Manuscript is for or what it says. (The Voynich Manuscript) *** The disappearance of a person is a tragedy no matter how you look at it. When we first read about missing people we usually automatically assume the most logical explanation was what happened. But what if we're wrong? We'll look at the vanishing of Claude and Sue Shelton. (The Shelton Disappearance) *** Unlike their Hollywood counterparts, the real-life Men in Black are mysterious figures who threaten people who have reported paranormal experiences.

Tonight, we dismantle the cruel myth of Canada's “world-class” healthcare system. Finlay van der Werken, a vibrant 16-year-old, walked into an Ontario hospital pleading for help—he left in a body bag. Eight agonizing hours on a hallway stretcher, ignored while his vital signs crashed. This isn't a fluke; it's the inevitable result of a bureaucratic healthcare monopoly designed for failure. While politicians celebrate this system as “progress,” families are burying their children. Canada's Minister of Canadian Identity, convicted felon Steven Guilbeault, wants you to believe our nation was built on slavery and “enduring anti-Black racism.” It's a lie so absurd it collapses under a basic history lesson. Canada didn't even exist when the British Empire abolished slavery in 1834. Guilbeault's revisionist fairy tale whitewashes Indigenous slave networks, cherry-picks atrocities, and shamelessly imports America's racial guilt complex to divide Canadians.

Shocking death of a beloved actor, plus Malcolm in His Own Words From His Last Social Media Video.

Marc and Kim kick off this segment with heartbreaking news: actor Malcolm-Jamal Warner, best known as Theo Huxtable from The Cosby Show, has reportedly died at 54 in a drowning accident off the coast of Costa Rica. From tragedy to troubling trends—new research confirms what many parents feared: giving smartphones to kids under 13 is linked to anxiety, depression, and suicidal thoughts, particularly among girls. The crew urges parents to reconsider early phone access and offer basic alternatives like flip phones. Also in the mix: Elon Musk launches a retro-futurist Tesla diner in LA, complete with 1950s-style burgers, 30-minute drive-in films, and popcorn-delivering robots. You can even order food from your car and hear the audio through your Tesla. Kim remains skeptical: "A battery-powered car just doesn't fit my lifestyle." Plus: Shark Week gets ridiculous with a new underwater segment called Dancing with Sharks—yes, it's exactly what it sounds like. And in a bizarre moment of pop culture chaos, a Beyoncé concert stampede hospitalized 11 people after a child screamed at the sight of a bug. Marc jokes, “My wife does the same thing—now I know it could cause mass casualties.”

In this episode of the OutThere Colorado Podcast, Spencer and Seth chat about the wildfire that closed a national park, a prehistoric find and a new spot to visit, debunked 'survival' tips, a death at one of the most difficult foot races in the United States, a new mountain town hotel with hot spring access, and more.

Send us a textTwenty-five years ago, on June 25, 2000, Stacy Moxon Meyer took her own life at Scientology's secretive Gold Base in Gilman Hot Springs, California. She was just 20 years old. In this powerful and emotional conversation, Claire Headley is joined by former high-ranking Scientology executive Tom DeVocht to uncover the truth behind this tragedy and expose the organization's elaborate cover-up.Claire and Tom take listeners deep inside the oppressive world of Scientology's Sea Organization, where Stacy had been separated from her husband for nearly two years, forced to work at a location so secretive her own spouse wasn't permitted to know where she was. The night before her death, Stacy had desperately sought permission to visit her husband in Los Angeles but was denied – a routine occurrence in an organization that systematically restricted members' movements and personal freedoms.What followed was a calculated deception. Scientology officials, including Warren McShane (described by David Miscavige himself as "a professional liar"), concocted a story that Stacy had been electrocuted while chasing a squirrel into an electrical vault. Claire and Tom methodically dismantle this narrative using police reports and firsthand knowledge, revealing how statements to law enforcement changed throughout the day as the cover-up was coordinated.Both hosts share their personal connections to the case – Claire was on the property that day and witnessed the aftermath, while Tom observed David Miscavige's cold reaction to the news while on a yacht trip. Their insider perspectives illuminate how Scientology's leadership, particularly David Miscavige, maintains absolute control over every aspect of the organization, from who could leave the property to how tragedies are hidden from public view.This episode stands as a memorial to Stacy and a powerful indictment of the conditions that led to her death. Through their testimony, Claire and Tom ensure that Stacy's story won't be forgotten and continue their mission to expose the abuses that persist behind Scientology's walls to this day.Support the showBFG Store - http://blownforgood-shop.fourthwall.com/Blown For Good on Audible - https://www.amazon.com/Blown-for-Good-Marc-Headley-audiobook/dp/B07GC6ZKGQ/ref=tmm_aud_swatch_0?_encoding=UTF8&qid=&sr=Blown For Good Website: http://blownforgood.com/PODCAST INFO:Podcast website: https://www.buzzsprout.com/2131160 Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/blown-for-good-behind-the-iron-curtain-of-scientology/id1671284503 RSS: https://feeds.buzzsprout.com/2131160.rss YOUTUBE PLAYLISTS: Spy Files Playlist: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLWtJfniWLwq4cA-e...

After the success of our bilingual season about the first female doctor trained in the Dominican Republic, The Extraordinary Life and Tragic Death of Evangelina Rodríguez Perozo, we are adapting more of our episodes in Spanish. Starting next week, listen out for the stories of astronomer Annie Maunder, physicists Emma Unson Rotor and Carolyn Parker, and chemist and forensic scientist Mary Louisa Willard in Spanish and English. As we always say, for every Marie Curie or Rosalind Franklin whose story has been told, hundreds of female scientists remain unknown to the public at large. So, we illuminate the lives and work of a diverse array of groundbreaking scientists who, because of time, place and gender, have gone largely unrecognized. And now these stories are available in Spanish too. Learn about your ad choices: dovetail.prx.org/ad-choices
