On January 24, 2007, a man was stopped at Ansan Station dragging a heavy suitcase that was leaving a fresh trail of blood across the floor tiles. When a station worker confronted him, he claimed the bag just held 40kg of pork. When he wasn't allowed to board the train, he abandoned the suitcase in the men's bathroom. After a janitor discovered what was inside, police launched a massive search through Wongok-dong, a neighborhood where the local migrant workers were distrustful of the police.Find our merch here: https://koreantruecrime-shop.fourthwall.comJoin our discord today!

In episode 607, Annie Sargent talks with Julie Lynch, an Australian costume designer turned painter, about her week-long art retreat in Noyers, a tiny medieval village in Burgundy. Julie traded her precise, detailed style for loose, abstract landscapes made on a gel plate. She and four childhood friends painted all morning, then explored Vézelay, Avallon, and the Château d'Ancy-le-Franc in the afternoons. Annie and Julie talk about wisteria, lilacs, why reservations matter even in small villages, and why a slow retreat beats a packed itinerary.

Reisen Reisen - Der Podcast mit Jochen Schliemann und Michael Dietz
Ein roter Topf auf offener Flamme, darin blubbert flüssiges Gold. Ein Stück Brot verschwindet darin und kommt zurück als der pure Geschmack von Milch, Handwerk und Zeit. Jochen war in Gruyères, dem kleinen Schweizer Dorf, das genauso heißt wie der weltberühmte Käse, der von hier kommt. Zum ersten Mal widmen wir eine ganze Folge einem einzigen Lebensmittel. Jochen steht in einer Alpkäserei aus dem Jahr 1686, in der François den Käse noch über offenem Holzfeuer im Kupferkessel macht. Er sieht zu, wie aus 700 Litern Milch 70 Kilo Käse werden Zweimal am Tag, von Hand. Er fährt mit der Seilbahn hoch auf den Moléson, 2002 Meter, und blickt vom Mont Blanc bis zum Genfersee. Er lässt sich von einer Kuhherde ausbremsen, die hier einfach Vorfahrt hat. Er steht mitten in diesem Bilderbuchdorf plötzlich vor dem Alien-Monster, im Museum von HR Giger. Und er taucht sein Brot noch einmal in diese unwiderstehliche Masse aus Gruyère und Vacherin Fribourgeois - bis wirklich nichts mehr geht. :)Damit schließt sich unsere kleine Schweiz Trilogie. Hört auch gern die Folgen zu Scuol/Unterengadin und Fribourg.—
Summer in Hot Springs Village is warm, humid, and undeniably Southern, but it’s also one of the most enjoyable seasons if you know how to embrace it. In this episode, I share what the “dog days of summer” are really like, from peaceful early mornings to afternoon thunderstorms, evening porch conversations, and the slower pace that retirement makes possible. If you’re wondering whether the summer heat should keep you from considering Hot Springs Village, this honest look at everyday life during the hottest weeks of the year may surprise you. P.S. Our backyard was completely transformed by the awesome work of two small businesses inside HSV: Breshears Custom Decks (Shawn Breshears) and C&S Landscaping (Chris & Seth Graves, brothers). Honest, do-what-they-say-they’ll-do kind of guys. I highly recommend them both and thank the people who put me onto them. “Good help is HARD to find,” but I did.

Last year, a listener question inspired us to spend 12 whole hours at a park-and-ride lot in Richmond. This year, we posted up at another Vermont mainstay – a popular ice cream shop near the beaches of Lake Champlain, in Colchester. The Village Scoop is the kind of place where, if you stay put long enough, you can watch a whole Vermont summer unfold in one day. So, we arrived hours before the shop opened and stayed long after the last customer was served.During our marathon day there, we got a real taste of Vermont summer at its peak, in all its sweltering, melting glory.Click here for the web version of this episode, including photos and a full transcript.This episode was reported and produced by Josh Crane, Sabine Poux and Burgess Brown.

Modern family life offers mothers an endless supply of services meant to make isolation more manageable, but Lauren Penn began wondering why so much support had to be purchased in the first place. After a violent crash near the crosswalk her children use to get to school pushed her into local activism, she began connecting unsafe streets and missing sidewalks to the exhaustion many mothers experience while coordinating transportation, childcare and social life largely on their own. Lauren shares how books, advocacy and small experiments with her daughters changed what she thought a neighborhood could provide. A place can either force every need into another private transaction or make room for families to help one another.

Solidarity Economy Shorts Episode #8A collaboration with New Economy CoalitionSolidarity Economy Shorts are conversations with frontline organizations & individuals that are putting solidarity economy principles into practice. They are using different strategies to build an economic system where communities are meeting their own needs outside of capitalism. Motherful is a matriarchal collective by and for single mothers rooted in non-hierarchy, mutual care, and shared resources. They are reimagining a future of motherhood where all single mothers are valued as sacred and worthy of support.In this episode I speak with co-founder Lisa Woodward and housing director Amanda King. Lisa grounds us in Motherful's origin story and how they are meeting the needs of single moms through offerings like their pantry, resource garage, and basic income program. We discuss what it means to be a matriarchal and non-hierarchical collective and how they maintain those principles with an evolving membership of over 2,000. Amanda shares their newest initiative, an eco-village in Ohio for single mothers to shape their housing, community, and the conditions they need to thrive. This conversation offers a tangible vision for what is possible when we shift from care being an individual responsibility to a collective one.Show NotesMotherful WebsiteHeide Göttner-Abendroth: an advocate for matriarchal studiesMatriarchy Now: an alliance of organizations whose shared mission is to move society towards matriarchyUp Together: organization that co-funded the Ohio Mother's Trust and is working to working to disrupt the status quo approach to ending poverty Rise Together Innovation Institute: organization that co-funded the Ohio Mother's Trust and is working to to disrupt structural racism and issues of poverty in Franklin County

Toso, my new 2026 Yamaha XMAX 300 Learning something new later in life can feel intimidating. We get comfortable with what we already know, and the thought of looking awkward or even failing can keep us from trying. In this episode, I share why I decided to earn my motorcycle license at 69, purchase a 2026 Yamaha XMAX, and embrace the challenge of becoming a complete beginner again. Along the way, I learned that countless hours spent practicing slow turns and emergency stops in an empty church parking lot weren’t just teaching me how to ride…they were teaching me something far more valuable. Without HotSpringsVillageInsideOut.com this would have never happened. Whether your next adventure involves two wheels, a new hobby, a new career, or simply stepping outside your comfort zone, the principle is the same: everything is hard until it isn’t. If you’re willing to endure the boredom of practice and the humility of being a beginner, you’ll discover new confidence, new freedom, and the joy that comes from proving to yourself that it’s never too late to learn something new. Jef with Maxim Motor Sport, Allen, TX Shout out to Jef at MaximHondaYamaha.net in Allen, Texas (972.359.0202). They’re a big shop with a massive inventory of powersport machines, gear, and accessories. It’s my first motorcycle purchase, and it was extraordinary! And I’m not getting one cent to say so. I highly recommend Jeff and the rest of the crew. Here’s a selfie I took right after Jeff loaded my new scooter onto the trailer – minutes before I pulled away to bring her back to the Village. I named her Toso, a Fiji term that conveys the idea of moving forward, advancing, or continuing on. I’m not from Fiji. Never been. But over 4 decades ago, I ran across a Fijian term, “bula”. It’s analogous to “Aloha” in Hawaiian. It’s a greeting and means both hello and good-bye. It also means “life” and carries the connotation that “life is good.” I started using it as a greeting on my internal memos in the company I was running at the time. I’d write, “Bula!” instead of some other greeting. Years later, when forming my company, Bula had to be incorporated, so I named my company Bula Network (not because of podcasting or publishing, but because of PEOPLE). So I figured this new scooter needed some Fijian name, too. Toso. It’s pronounced TOH-soh, with the emphasis on the first syllable: TOH (rhymes with “go”) and soh (also rhymes with “go”). So it sounds like: TOH-soh. • Join Our Free Email Newsletter • Subscribe to Our YouTube Channel (click that bell icon, too) • Join Our Facebook Group • Support Our Sponsors (Click on the images below to visit their websites.) __________________________________________ __________________________________________ __________________________________________

Grace & Grit Podcast: Helping Women Everywhere Live Happier, Healthier and More Fit Lives
We often hear that it takes a village to raise a child. I think it also takes a village to keep an adult healthy. Many of us have quietly come to expect one person to meet nearly all of our social, emotional, intellectual, and recreational needs. It's a burden no relationship was ever designed to carry. In this episode, I explore what a healthy relational ecosystem actually looks like, why connection remains one of the strongest predictors of long term health, and how building a broader support network strengthens the relationships we value most. A healthy life is rarely built alone. Neither is a healthy future. Want to keep going?

Kristin Smith has spent 20 years helping new families survive the hardest weeks of their lives. As the founder of Well Supported Family — a team of over 200 postpartum doulas, newborn care specialists, and nurses operating across 12 states — she's built the modern village that most families desperately need and almost nobody has access to.Now she has a two-month-old of her own. An adopted son she got the call about while she was standing at an elephant orphanage in Kenya. He came home through the NICU. And for the first time, she's on the parent side of everything she's built — learning what it feels like to need the very support she's spent two decades providing.In this conversation, Ashley and Kristin talk about the postpartum care gap, the different paths to parenthood, what actually happens in those first nights home, and what it looks like to practice exactly what you preach.In This EpisodeHow Kristin started — a postpartum doula at 19 after having her daughter with almost no supportGrowing Well Supported Family from a private practice to a team of 200+ across 12 statesWhy postpartum care in the US is so inadequate — and what it would take to fix itWhat in-home newborn care actually looks like and how it's tailored to each familyThe RV team, the travel team, and how they reach families in almost every stateNICU babies coming home — the adjustment nobody prepares families forThe call from Kenya — a failed adoption, four days into a trip, at an elephant orphanageThree rounds of IVF and what that experience gave her as a providerBeing on the parent side for the first time — and convincing herself her own baby was brokenWhy adopted babies don't get the postpartum support they need — and the rude awakening that followedThe philosophy at the heart of her work: build children into your life, not your life around themWhat's next — expanding into mental health support and more statesQuotes From This Episode“You can have a wound inside your body the size of a basketball, and it was attached. Just because nobody sees it doesn't mean it doesn't hurt.”— Kristin Smith“I don't believe parents should build their life around children. I believe they should build children into their lives.”— Kristin Smith“I was at the elephant orphanage when this baby was born. That feels so symbolic.”— Kristin Smith“I was convinced he was broken. I'm a professional. What is he doing? And then someone said, he was four weeks early. You're expecting a lot right now.”— Kristin Smith“It's not just giving them the break they need — it's helping them learn to build a life with their child.”— Kristin SmithResources & LinksWell Supported Family: wellsupportedfamily.comBaby Care Classes: available via wellsupportedfamily.comInstagram, Facebook, TikTok, YouTube: @wellsupportedfamilyFind Kristin on Facebook: Kristin LeeConnect with Ashley:Website: https://www.ashleyblackington.comPodcast website: https://www.andbothpodcast.com/Dovetail® App: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/dovetail-app/id6744341822Instagram: @mydovetail.careLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/ashleyblackington/

Samuel of 84a High Street selects village fêtes as this week's topic for the beans. You may well ask yourself why Samuel has made this choice and wonder if perhaps Samuel was never voted as Village Fête Prince or if Samuel's motorised float never podiumed or if Samuel shoved his hand in a lucky dip barrel and pulled it out again expecting to be holding a prize only to find his fingers had been replaced with very long springs but Samuel's motive for his choice is Samuel's business and Samuel's business alone.Join our PATREON for ad-free episodes and bonus/video episodes: www.patreon.com/threebeansaladWith thanks to our editor Laura Grimshaw.Tickets for Henry's tour: www.henrypaker.comTicket's for Benjamin's Beef And Dairy Network live show: https://www.kingsplace.co.uk/whats-on/podcast/beef-and-dairy-network-podcast-5/Merch available here: www.threebeansaladshop.comGet in touch: threebeansaladpod@gmail.com Insta: threebeansaladpod
Welcome to the Grief Series, a collection of conversations about the grief woven throughout our lives with some extraordinary women bringing their raw, vulnerable stories to the mic.

My guest, Emily Merrell, is a connector by nature, the founder of Second Degree Society, a business coach, and a two-time boy mom based in Denver, Colorado. She brought her whole, unfiltered heart to this conversation, and we both cried. We go deep into the grief of friendships that fall apart without explanation, the grandparent village that never materialized, and what it actually costs to need your mom and find that who she is now can't meet you there.TOPICS WE EXPLOREWhen your friends don't show up for your businessThe slow fade of a deep friendship and the loop that never closesBeing ghosted by people who you thought were your friendsHow ambition triggers the people closest to youThe grandparent grief nobody talks aboutAsking for help once and being let downGrieving your mom while she's still aliveBuilding a village when the one you expected never arrivedTHE POINTSometimes the hardest grief isn't the loss of someone.

Episode 426: On June 29th, 2021, Lytton, British Columbia, recorded the highest air temperature in Canadian history: 49.6 degrees Celsius. The next day, the town burned to the ground in under two hours, killing two people and destroying more than 150 homes and businesses across the Village of Lytton and the neighbouring Lytton First Nation reserves. Nearly four years later, the cause of the fire remains officially undetermined, the recovery has become its own bureaucratic disaster, and a class-action lawsuit against Canada's two largest railways is still working its way through the BC Supreme Court. This episode tells the story of the heat, the fire, the two people who didn't make it out, and the years-long collapse of the rebuild that followed. Later in the episode, Mike sits down with Tim Conrad of Butterfly Effect Communications to talk crisis communications — what the first hours of a disaster like Lytton demand, and what it takes to keep a fractured, grieving community informed years into a recovery that never seems to end.

Mea Culpa welcomes the Lincoln Project advisor Stuart Stevens. Regarded as one of the Republican Party's most talented political gurus—a body of work that includes steering Mitt Romney's presidential campaign in 2012—Stevens may also be the GOP's most prominent defector when he abandoned his party as Trump rose to power. He despises the former president in a way that feels strikingly personal. While the Lincoln Project argues that Trump is perverting the Republican Party, Stevens doesn't think Trump has perverted anything: Trump is the Republican Party, Stevens believes, and the Republican Party is Trump. Stuart believes there is no reclaiming his former party, it must be burned to the ground. Or to use a Vietnam-era metaphor, the Village must be destroyed in order to save it. Reflecting on a four-decade career in American politics, Stevens is convinced that Trump was not an aberrant zigzag. He was fate. “I saw a lot of this stuff, but I just chose to believe that this kind of dark side was the recessive gene, not the dominant one,” he says. “I was wrong.” Stevens joins Mea Culpa to discuss his fabulous new book “The Conspiracy to End America: Five Ways My Old Party Is Driving Our Democracy to Autocracy.” The book is part memoir and part Jeremiad as Stevens unpacks how we are moving towards an autocratic end.
