I hadn’t heard about it until a couple of days ago. I’ll have to look into it!

Grabbing a drink near Denia.
We live in a time when the federal government considers it taboo to name officers. I asked @sergioolmos.bsky.social about his team's decision to identify five Border Patrol officers who spent last year traveling the country and violently arresting people -- and the inevitable criticism they'd face.
It was huge fun having @tobyballnh.bsky.social back on the Seen for a member-only bonus episode
@maritalks2much.bsky.social & I cannot apologise enough to Toby for what we subject him to 🔎
Fun episode though with heaps of fantastic recommendations

I think you're thrown off by my newly acquired Spanish accent. 😂
for the weekend crowd: I dug into a new podcast that pins a bunch of notorious murders on a long-dead Jewish man from San Diego. It's the ugliest true crime property in recent memory. [gift link] defector.com/michael-conn...
Well, if I find myself really missing brass band dirges during this year's Fallas, I'll know where to go!
And I don't know what to say about that ad but I guess in this day and age, we should just be glad someone will purchase an ad in a print newspaper!
I can’t get a message like this and not share it. To get episodes of Crimes of the Centuries early and ad free, go to www.grabbagcollab.com.
Definitely do if you can!!

For six years, I’ve reported on the Elwood Jones case and raised questions about an incomplete investigation. Today, the prosecutor agreed — and dropped all charges. New episode is up.

Here's a fun article from @nytimes.com about UFO tourism in New Hampshire. It mentions the Strange Arrivals podcast and movie. Great visuals, too.

I think so. As I explained in the episode, even the people who increased the criminal penalties for tree spiking couldn't find examples beyond George Alexander. It feels like a propaganda effort, to be honest.
Thanks Heather!

1) DnD resurgence came with Stranger Things
2) you ABSOLUTELY need to do the reading of the Book of Enoch with former guests!
3) Brandon falling into his Texas roots with his “y’all” near the end of the ep - classic!
Loved this episode!

RIP to my Tubi recommendations
At the start of Rip Current ep. 2, hear me describe an encounter with visionary environmentalist Judi Bari one year after the vicious car-bomb attempt on her life. #Judibari @tobyballnh.bsky.social podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/s...
The first episode of Season 2 of the Rip Current podcast is in your podcast feeds! This season: radical environmental activist Judi Bari - her battles with the timber industry and the pipe bomb that nearly killed her. Listen on any podcast app or here: podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/r...
New podcast about visionary environmentalist Judi Bari comes out Nov 5 -- Rip Current by @tobyballnh.bsky.social. Judi overcame polarization and exposed divisive tactics used to break social movements. We'll see where Rip Current takes this important story. podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/r...
