Paul de River. The aristocratic Krafft-Ebing was a German psychiatrist and author of the seminal Psychopathia Sexualis. J. Paul de River was the chief psychiatrist of the Los Angeles Sex Offense Bureau during the 1940s and author of The Sexual Criminal: A Psychoanalytic Study. The work of these two eccentric, obsessive, and sometimes deluded psychiatrists provide compelling time-capsules into the dark underbelly of 19th century Vienna, and the sordid backstreets of mid-century Los Angeles. Mikita Brottman is Professor of Literature at the Maryland Institute College of Art in Baltimore. She has a D.Phil from Oxford University in English Language and Literature, and is an NAAP certified psychoanalyst. She performs forensic evaluations for the National Institute for the study, prevention and treatment of sexual trauma. She is also the author of 15 nonfiction books, the latest of which, Guilty Creatures (Simon & Schuster, 2024) was described by the New York Times as “an unputdownable read.” https://mikitabrottman.com News & updates: Our next event is Saturday, August 15th, with the next installment of An Introduction to Psychoanalysis.

Episode summary: The head-spinning ascent of AI is a story of scientific innovation, but it's also, fundamentally, a story about money. Between 2013 and 2024, AI netted about U.S.$1.6 trillion of global corporate and private investment; it's estimated that by the end of this year that number will reach U.S.$2.5 trillion. How this massive investment is transforming — and will transform — the way we live and work is a matter of fierce debate and great uncertainty. One person at the centre of this technological and economic maelstrom is Pillar VC's Leah Morris. She's the executive director of Pillar's Encode: AI for Science fellowship, which provides AI researchers the time, freedom and resources to build meaningful, game-changing solutions. In this bonus episode, she discusses how new technologies are exacerbating economic inequality, the enduring value of human judgment and how the AI investment landscape is too often, in her words, “bullshit in a bull ring.” Featured in this episode: Leah Morris is executive director of the Encode: AI for Science fellowship at Pillar VC. She was previously a senior director at Radical Ventures, where she oversaw the firm's responsible AI strategy and managed research partnerships. Her background includes economic AI research at the University of Toronto and experience in global health and security with the United Nations and through nonprofit work in Jamaica and South Africa. Further reading: The next great divergence: Why AI may widen inequality between countries The man behind AlphaGo thinks AI is taking the wrong path How London became the rest of the world's startup capital Universal basic income, the utopia idea resurging in Silicon Valley How AI is transforming scientific discovery while keeping humans at the centre Solve for X is brought to you by MaRS, North America's largest urban innovation hub and a registered charity.

Bob and Matt wrap up their coverage of Grant Morrison's New X-Men.

In this episode of The Daily T, Tim Stanley and Poppy Coburn dissect the early days of Andy Burnham's premiership. From his nervous media appearances and regional presentation style to his controversial split-week at “Number 10 North” in Manchester, they ask whether “Burnhamism” represents genuine reform or simply continuity Keir Starmer in a new outfit.In the second half of the show, Tim and Poppy look at the impending crackdown on youth sickness benefits as the PM seeks out the billions he intends to spend on social care and defence. They evaluate the proposed Dutch-inspired scheme to encourage “Neets” into work, and examine whether government policy or a broader culture of “arrested development” is truly to blame.≠We want to hear from you!

Jeffrey Epstein's extraordinary ability to evade meaningful consequences for years, despite mounting allegations, witness accounts and evidence of sexual abuse, helped fuel the belief that he may have been protected because of intelligence or government connections. The 2007–2008 non-prosecution agreement in Florida became the centerpiece of that suspicion: Epstein avoided federal charges, pleaded guilty to comparatively limited state offenses and served a remarkably lenient sentence that included extensive work release. The deal was negotiated in secret, concealed from survivors and extended protection to unnamed potential co-conspirators, creating the appearance that prosecutors were not merely resolving a case but insulating a broader network. When combined with Epstein's relationships with politicians, financiers, academics, royalty and former intelligence-linked figures, the outcome looked less like ordinary favoritism and more like institutional protection.Those suspicions only deepened because Epstein continued moving through elite circles after his conviction and was not federally arrested again until 2019, even though the basic allegations against him had been publicly known for years. To some observers, it seemed implausible that a registered sex offender with such a documented pattern of abuse could remain so well connected and so lightly scrutinized without possessing leverage, powerful patrons or some form of official usefulness. None of this proves that Epstein was a government asset, and no definitive public evidence has established that claim, but the combination of his lenient treatment, the secrecy surrounding the Florida agreement and the repeated failures of law enforcement created fertile ground for the theory. The government's refusal or inability to fully explain how Epstein received such extraordinary consideration ensured that suspicions of intelligence protection would continue long after his arrest and death.to ocntact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.

For instance, Claude is obsessed with the fact that she sometimes gets up for work at 4 a.m.It comes up constantly in their chats — apropos of nothing. So, why do large language models latch on to these random tidbits? It's the first topic in our new series “Uncanny AI.” Those moments when it becomes clear AI doesn't think like us.Here to help us unpack what might be going on is Janelle Shane, a laser scientist who writes the AI Weirdness blog.

Bob and Matt discuss "Rise of Apocalypse- Part 2".

Bob tells Matt all about his experience with the new Supergirl film.

Tonight's guest, Joe Bass, describes himself as a backwoods Appalachian with a lifetime of bushcraft experience. Growing up in the mountains of Appalachia, he spent countless hours exploring the rugged wilderness, and over the years, he had more than his share of memorable experiences there. None of them, however, compared to what happened on June 13, 2020, when he came face-to-face with a jet-black Dogman.That encounter changed the course of Joe's life and ultimately led him to found Uncanny Cryptid Cartographer. Since then, he has dedicated himself to documenting eyewitness encounters, preserving forgotten history, and uncovering lost history connected to cryptids and other unexplained phenomena.On tonight's show, Joe will not only share the details of the Dogman encounter that started it all, but he'll also talk about the observations, evidence, and discoveries he has made while investigating the Dogman phenomenon over the past six years.

Welcome back to the Healing for Hot Messes Podcast! In this episode of the Uncanny Dally Series, we are talking about the Philip Experiment. The Philip Experiment is one of the strangest paranormal investigations ever conducted. In the 1970s, a group of researchers set out to create a fictional ghost named Philip Aylesford and then attempt to contact him through séances. What happened next sparked decades of debate among psychologists, paranormal researchers, occultists, and practitioners of chaos magic.In this video, we explore the Philip Experiment through the lenses of psychology, collective belief, thoughtforms, egregores, tulpas, and chaos magic.

Welcome back to the Uncanny Dally, a series on the Healing for Hot Messes podcast that examines consciousness and high strangeness through the lens of chaos magic and depth psychology!This episode is all about the Law of Assumption and the Law of Belief, and what these ideas actually look like when you strip away the spiritual bypassing of mainstream Law of Attraction culture.If you've spent time with Neville Goddard's work- the Law of Assumption, living in the end, assuming the feeling of the wish fulfilled- you already know there's something genuinely interesting underneath the manifesting aesthetic. But what happens when you bring it into conversation with depth psychology and chaos magic? We'll look at Neville Goddard's Law of Assumption through a psychological lens, explore how the Law of Belief operates as something far more complex than positive thinking, and examine what chaos magic, with its radical, self-aware approach to belief and reality tunnels, adds to the conversation.This one is for everyone who wanted to try dabbling in manifestation but couldn't stomach the good vibes only approach.

In 1977, a U.S. Navy Pilot who was employed with the U.S. Central Intelligence Agency was en route to Japan after conducting a pair of missions over the Pacific when, suddenly, a lonely midnight flight over international waters took a turn for the uncanny.  This week on The Micah Hanks Program, we examine one of the best cases in the history of the U.S. intelligence community and its personnel's encounters with unidentified anomalous phenomena, as we analyze a harrowing incident report involving an unexplained "interloper" that followed a CIA aircraft across the Pacific. What was the strange object, and could this be one of the best—and yet, most overlooked UAP incidents in history?  Want to advertise/sponsor The Micah Hanks Program?

Something is wrong in the woods.The artist notices him first — and says almost nothing. One remark, on the way to the station, barely above a murmur. Then the train comes, and he is gone.It falls to Van Cheele to find out what his friend meant. What he discovers, by the pool in the oak coppice, is a boy with light brown eyes that hold something tigerish in them, lying in the sun with an ease that belongs to no child he has ever met.The aunt will find him charming. The dog will not stay in the house.Saki understood that the old country — the country before the parishes and the property lines — was never entirely tamed. The animals there talk."Gabriel-Ernest" was first published in 1909 in the Westminster Gazette, and later collected in Reginald in Russia and Other Sketches (1910).Saki was the pen name of Hector Hugh Munro (1870–1916), a writer of savage wit and supernatural unease. He was killed on the Western Front in the closing months of the Somme campaign.
