Podcasts about witch hunt

I've been wanting to cover Witch Hunts for years! But I knew I didn't want to just tell another rendition of the Salem Witch Trials. I will get to Salem in Part 2 but I wanted to know where all of this stemmed from. When was the moment in time that "a witch" became associated with the Devil. In Part 1, I tell Russ about the men that created this hysteria, the way they used their faith to justify murder and how whole towns would come out and watch a woman burn as if it were a spectacle. Moral of this story ... witches aren't the scary ones, ordinary people are. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

The Daily Beast's must-read legal columnist Shan Wu joins the Beast's Hugh Dougherty to dissect Trump's shaky case against James Comey. Wu, a former federal prosecutor, explains why the indictment reeks of politics: a weak grand jury vote, rookie prosecutors sent to do Trump's dirty work, and a DOJ reshaped into a loyalty machine. He lays out the defense playbook, from motions to dismiss to jury battles, and warns how much damage the spectacle will inflict on Comey and the justice system itself. With Trump burning political capital chasing old enemies as crises mount at home and abroad, the question becomes: is this justice or just Trump's vengeance dressed up in legal robes?

Journey back to 1487, a Europe ravaged by plague, famine, and a desperate Catholic Church clinging to power. In this haunting episode, we expose how corruption, papal chaos, and mass paranoia collided to create the perfect storm for witch hunts. One book, the Malleus Maleficarum, turned fear into a weapon, unleashed brutal torture chambers, and set thousands of innocents ablaze. From secret sabbats to twisted trials and the lingering shadows of Satanic Panic today, this is the dark blueprint for how power turns fear into fire.

Lady Victoria Hervey has voiced deep skepticism about the Maxwell trial and its fallout, framing Maxwell not solely as a villain but also as a victim turned scapegoat. She's claimed publicly that Maxwell used people—including Hervey herself—as “bait” to further Epstein's operations, suggesting Hervey was “naïve” and manipulated in those circles. Simultaneously, Hervey has cast doubt on the narrative pushed by prosecutors and media, contending that Maxwell is being unfairly punished as “there is no one else to blame.”Hervey has also challenged the authenticity of some key evidence, most notably a photograph depicting Prince Andrew and Virginia Giuffre, which Maxwell's allies—and Hervey—have insisted was doctored or manipulated. She uses these claims to further argue that Maxwell's prosecution is tainted by bias, selective narrative control, and a lack of full transparency.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com

TALK TO ME, TEXT ITReady for a wild news day? We're diving into three jaw-dropping stories that'll have you questioning reality.First up, a truly disturbing revelation: a Jezebel writer proudly admitted to hiring witches from Etsy to curse Charlie Kirk just days before his assassination. Yes, you read that correctly. As Megyn Kelly revealed, Kirk's widow Erica was deeply shaken by these curses, even seeking spiritual guidance from a Catholic priest. The timing – with the article published September 8th and the assassination occurring just two days later – adds an extra layer of darkness to an already horrifying situation. Whether you believe in the supernatural or not, the normalization of wishing harm on political opponents should concern us all.From human malevolence to nature's terrors, our second story takes us to Texas beaches where massive pink jellyfish with 70-foot tentacles are washing ashore. These aptly-named "pink meanies" weigh up to 50 pounds and weren't even classified as a distinct species until 2011. How such enormous creatures evaded scientific categorization for so long remains a mystery – and a compelling reason to reconsider that ocean swim on your next beach vacation.Finally, some accountability in the tech world as Google announces it will reinstate YouTube accounts that were removed following pressure from the Biden administration over COVID-19 content. This confirmation of government-influenced censorship affects prominent voices like Dan Bongino, Sebastian Gorka, and Steve Bannon, raising critical questions about free speech and the dangers of labeling dissenting viewpoints as "misinformation."What creature gives you the creeps?

Steve welcomes David A. Kallman, Senior Partner at the Kallman Legal Group, to break down a massive win for justice in Michigan. A state judge has just slammed the door shut on Attorney General Dana Nessel's politically motivated witch hunt against Michigan's Republican Electors. Kallman, who has been on the front lines of this fight, explains why the case collapsed, how Nessel abused her office in an attempt to criminalize conservatives, and what this ruling means for the future of election integrity in Michigan and across the country.

Read the original article (includes sources): https://weirddarkness.com/witch-trial-facts/From Salem's gallows where twenty innocent people swung in 1692, to modern Tanzania where elderly women are butchered with machetes for having red eyes, the pattern of witch hunts remains horrifyingly consistent: torture until confession, murder for being different, and children weaponized against their own families. What most people don't realize is that these brutal executions never stopped; they simply evolved, moved to new countries, and learned to hide behind the masks of religion, justice, and mob rule while continuing to claim thousands of lives every year.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: Between the 15th and 18th centuries, approximately 50,000 people died accused of witchcraft across Europe and America, their bodies hanged, burned, crushed, and torn apart in ways that reveal more about human cruelty than supernatural evil. The most disturbing truth isn't in the historical record though; it's that right now, somewhere in the world, someone is pouring acid down a child's throat, setting a woman on fire, or hacking an elderly person to death for the same imaginary crime.CHAPTERS & TIME STAMPS (All Times Approximate)…00:00:00.000 = Lead-In00:02:21.296 = Show Open00:03:46.926 = Ropes, Stones, and Chains: How Salem Killed Its Innocent00:12:26.103 = The Werewolf Panic: Europe's Other Supernatural Trials00:23:52.912 = Children, Coins, and Continuing Horror: The Witch Hunt That Never Ended00:29:34.556 = Show Close=====(Over time links may become invalid, disappear, or have different content.

In this powerful episode of the Witchhunt podcast, we dive into a conversation around how to trust the whispers of your intuition, weave sacred practices into your daily life, and redefine success on your own terms. Nadine Moffat, a modern-day witch, priestess, and healer, shares her profound insights on embracing life transitions, honouring your unique path, and reconnecting with your inner magic.Through her personal story of rediscovery after losing herself in an unfulfilling marriage, Nadine offers wisdom on how to listen to your inner guidance, integrate ritual into your routine, and navigate life with intention and reverence. Alex and Nadine discuss the power of nature as a partner (of reverence)  in magic, the importance of building supportive communities, and how to break free from patriarchal systems that keep women disconnected from their true selves.Whether you're navigating a life shift, seeking spiritual alignment, or simply craving more magic in your life, this episode will leave you feeling inspired to reconnect with your innate power.Key Topics Covered: 1. Trusting Intuition: How listening to the quiet whispers of your inner voice can transform your life. 2. Sacred Daily Practices: The importance of integrating rituals, such as meditation, working with plant medicine, and connecting with crystals and cards. 3. The Witch vs. The Priestess: Nadine's definition of the witch as a self-connected being rooted in the earth versus the priestess as a facilitator devoted to holding space for others. 4. Cultural and Systemic Conditioning: Reflections on how societal expectations, like the nuclear family model, contribute to women's disconnection from their authentic selves. 5. Redefining Success: Creating your own definition of success that honors slow living, nervous system regulation, and community-centered prosperity.Connect with Nadine Moffat: • Website: becomingstill.ca • Instagram: @becoming_stillAdditional Resources: • Mentioned books: Braiding Sweetgrass and Serviceberry by Robin Wall Kimmerer • Mentioned episode: Emily Paulson's What's the Women's Wealth Transfer? | Curious Life of a Child-Free Woman podcast

Simply put, Demonology is the study of Demons; what they do and how they interact with humans. While most cultures throughout time here in the west have had their own specific Demonology, from the middle ages onwards a particularly strong sort of European Demonology formed. This Demonology eventually lead to the hunt and persecution of tens of thousands of people for hundreds of years as witches and sorcerers. How this Demonology took shape is both fascinating and very telling of how our society conceives and adopts deleterious paradigms during certain periods of time.

I sat down with historian and author Gareth Russell at Harvington History Festival to talk about an aspect of his new biography of James I of England/VI of Scotland, "Queen James" which is less discussed, and that is James's views on Witchcraft! I asked Gareth about James's transformation from a skeptic to a fervent believer in witchcraft and back again! The conversation touched on the significance of James's 'Demonology' and the lasting impact of his decisions on society.We also discussed the success so far of Gareth's book "Queen James: The Life and Loves of Britain's First King" and the reason behind the title change for the US and Canadian markets.Chapters00:00 From Skeptic to Cheerleader: The Transformation of James06:04 Queen James: The Controversial Nickname and Its Implications12:37 Witchcraft and Demonology: James's Evolving Beliefs16:32 Exploring Scotland: The Legacy of James and His InfluenceHi!

He forged her signature and notarized this forgery which he served to CAS. He also crafted a forged document as a Plan of Care, all purporting that Marianne gave up her daughter. In the interim he played her by telling her he was preparing to defend and would get her daughter back in 4 days on the day of the motion hearing.      On the day of the motion hearing on June 17, 2013, JD Coon came down the court house hallway to Marianne before the start and said he reached an agreement for her to get her daughter back and told her to sign a lone signature page and to initial it. He refused to give her the two content pages as he said it was a huge rush and when she asked him what the agreement was for he told her it was for CAS closing the file and her daughter returning to her via her aunt and uncle where she would live. The CAS had a weak case so this made sense to Marianne.......To Reach Marianne Perz:  dismantlingfamilycourtcorruption.comSupportshow(https://www.buymeacoffee.com/maryannpetri)Maryann Petri: dismantlingfamilycourtcorruption.comhttps://www.tiktok.com/@maryannpetriFacebook:  https://www.youtube.com/@slamthegavelpodcasthostmar5536Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/guitarpeace/Pinterest: Slam The Gavel Podcast/@guitarpeaceLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/maryann-petri-62a46b1ab/  YouTube:  https://www.youtube.com/@slamthegavelpodcasthostmar5536  Twitter https://x.com/PetriMaryannEzlegalsuit.com   https://ko-fi.com/maryannpetrihttps://www.zazzle.com/store/slam_the_gavel/about*DISCLAIMER* The use of this information is at the viewer/user's own risk.

In this summer short Rosemary speaks with a familiar voice in wordsmith and Pulitzer prize winning opinion writer Mark Mahoney. President Trump is a talented communicator who sways the populace through the use of strong and repeated expressions. "Witch Hunt" and "Fake News" and "Hoax" come to mind. He also effectively casts doubts on information critical of him or that he doesn't like by crying "weaponization." This week he fired the country's chief labor data collector because her statistics didn't put his economy in the best light. His message has gotten out so powerfully that other institutions are doing his work for him. The Smithsonian institute pulled down material about his double impeachments and American Eagle pushed his white is superior agenda with a Jeans ad.

Our six part mini-series examining the seventeenth-century witch hunts across the eastern counties of England continues with a discussion looking at a topic not generally explored in this context: the environment.Professor Marion Gibson and Dr Tabitha Stanmore of the Leverhulme Foundation funded Seven County Witch Hunt Project join folklorist and host Mark Norman once again. Topics include the influence of the weather, farming and crops and the coastal fishing trade and how all of these have a bearing on the witch trials.To support the work of The Folklore Podcast in creating more specialist mini-series and other folklore content, please visit our Patreon page at patreon.com/thefolklorepodcast

Claims that Ghislaine Maxwell's trial was a "witch hunt" reveal more about the people making the claim than the actual proceedings themselves. Framing her prosecution as political theater or scapegoating for Epstein's death ignores the mountains of evidence presented by survivors, investigators, and even Maxwell's own associates. She wasn't dragged into court on vague allegations or hearsay—she was tried based on detailed, corroborated accounts of her role in recruiting, grooming, and enabling the abuse of underage girls over many years. Calling that a “witch hunt” is a rhetorical shield—an attempt to reframe a hard-earned moment of accountability as hysteria, all while ignoring the systemic failures and powerful networks that allowed Epstein's operation to flourish unchecked.This revisionist push to rebrand Maxwell as some kind of martyr isn't just offensive—it's dangerous. It discredits survivors, undermines public trust in criminal accountability, and fuels the exact kind of misinformation campaign that let Epstein operate in plain sight for decades. The “witch hunt” narrative serves a particular crowd: those desperate to deflect scrutiny from the institutions, financiers, and power brokers who were too close for comfort. If anything, Maxwell's trial barely scratched the surface. To call it overreach is not just dishonest—it's a calculated distraction from the justice that remains unserved.To contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:https://www.dailymail.co.uk/femail/article-10467497/Prince-Andrews-ex-Lady-Victoria-Hervey-44-says-Ghislaine-Maxwells-trial-witch-hunt.html

Happy New Moon witches! Gemini and Scorpio read How to Kill a Witch By Claire Mitchell and Zoe Venditozzi, the Witches of Scotland, and had a LOT to say about it. The subtitle for this episode might just be "The Blood Magic of the Patriarchy" or "Resistance in the Face of a Witch Hunt" because this book managed to be not just a really fun read about a historical period for Scotland, but also a facilitator of conversation about the struggles of living in the version of America that is on fire. Also, we talk about Sinners and how y'all should watch that (not Gemini though, she's soft)!

Why? Because he's the author of “The Russia Hoax: The Illicit Scheme to Clear Hillary Clinton and Frame Donald Trump” and “Witch Hunt: The Story of the Greatest Mass Delusion in American Political History” What does he think of Todd Blanche's recent appointment?

In this episode, Professor Marion Gibson and Dr Tabitha Stanmore turn their attention to the families involved in the witch hunts. Were all family members tarred with the same brush? How did dynamics work when families were accusing each other of witchcraft?Moving on from this, we also look at the role of familiars - not necessarily the animal familiars which are more well recognized, but ghostly assistance provided from within the family and beyond, and the role of spectral evidence that emerges from this time period.Once again, podcast host Mark Norman leads the questioning.To support the Folklore Podcast is producing more mini-series' and content such as this, please visit www.patreon.com/thefolklorepodcast and sign up for a membership tier for extra rewards.

This Interview was conducted for the Sean Hannity Radio Show when Rose guest hosted.Gregg Jarrett – author of “Witch Hunt” joins Rose to discuss; Former CIA Director John Brennan pushed to include the infamous Steele Dossier in the intel report—yet testified it wasn't central to the assessment. James Clapper said the same. So what were they playing at? We dig into how this impacted Trump's presidency, why Brennan and Comey may have been so determined to make the Russia collusion narrative stick, and whether this was more than just political hostility. Plus—Tulsi Gabbard says a reckoning is coming. Could real accountability be on the horizon?And in another headline-grabbing case, Bryan Kohberger—accused of the brutal Idaho college murders—continues to withhold any explanation or motive. As the justice system inches toward trial, the silence is deafening. What don't we know?From government cover-ups to criminal enigmas, this episode asks the hard questions about truth, trust, and the systems meant to protect both.https://thegreggjarrett.comPlease Support this Podcast:www.mypillow.com Promo Code: ROSEhttps://patriotmobile.com/partners/rosewww.americansforprosperity.orgwww.wordmarketingservices.com Rose's Ministry: www.sheiscalledbyhim.comSubscribe for free newsletters

Originally released for Patrons on Sep 26, 2024 In this episode, Hallie dives into the web of social factors that likely drove the Salem Witch trials. The bewitched girls, called the afflicted, were from one faction in town, while the accused were from another. Is this a coincidence? Probably not.

Former Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro is in a moment of reckoning. In January 2023, after his election loss, thousands of his supporters attacked the presidential palace, the Supreme Court and the Congress as they protested an electoral defeat that Bolsonaro had baselessly attributed to electoral fraud. Now Bolsonaro is awaiting a criminal trial before the country's Supreme Court for allegedly plotting to kill his rivals and stay in power. Bolsonaro is barred from running for office until 2030, and he could very well go to prison for decades. Last week, U.S. President Donald Trump weighed in on Bolsonaro's situation. He called the trial a “WITCH HUNT” on social media and in a letter to Brazilian leaders when announcing a 50 percent tariff on Brazilian goods.Reporters Terrence McCoy and Marina Dias, who are based in Brazil, got a rare window into Bolsonaro's thinking and his desire for a Trump intervention during a visit to his office this past spring. Today on the podcast, host Elahe Izadi sits down with McCoy and Dias, to learn what their visit revealed about Bolsonaro, about Latin America's largest democracy and about the United States. Today's episode was produced by Elana Gordon with help from Sabby Robinson. It was edited by Peter Bresnan and Reena Flores. It was mixed by Sean Carter. Thanks to Jesse Mesner-Hage.
