In this episode, we delve into the concept of being "qualified" in the workplace, examining who gets labeled as such, who doesn't, and the underlying reasons. We explore "competency checking"—the practice of scrutinizing individuals' abilities—and how it disproportionately affects underrepresented groups, often going unnoticed or unchallenged. Our discussion aims to redefine qualifications in a fair, equitable, and actionable manner. Our guest, Shari Dunn , is an accomplished journalist, former attorney, news anchor, CEO, university professor, and sought-after speaker. She has been recognized as Executive of the Year and a Woman of Influence, with her work appearing in Fortune Magazine, The Wall Street Journal, Ad Age, and more. Her new book, Qualified: How Competency Checking and Race Collide at Work , unpacks what it truly means to be deserving and capable—and why systemic barriers, not personal deficits, are often the real problem. Her insights challenge the narratives that hold so many of us back and offer practical solutions for building a more equitable future. Together, we can build workplaces and communities that don’t just reflect the world we live in, but the one we want to create. A world where being qualified is about recognizing the talent and potential that’s been overlooked for far too long. It’s not just about getting a seat at the table—it’s about building an entirely new table, one designed with space for all of us.

As she listens to the wind outside, a sense of dread envelops her, feeling as if she were not alone despite being physically cut off from the world.

2:13:11

**Beware the Ides of March - A Chilling Compilation** Step into the eerie shadows of "Weekly Spooky," where host Henrique Couto invites you to contemplate the haunting resonance of fate and retribution in this special compilation, "Beware the Ides of March." This captivating episode presents a chilling series of tales that intertwine themes of vengeance, remorse, and the sinister implications of choices made under duress. As the episode unfolds, listeners are treated to a narrative rich in suspense and dark twists that echo the famous cautionary adage, "Beware the Ides of March." Henrique sets the tone, urging you to dive deep into stories where characters grapple with the consequences of their actions in a wicked and unpredictable world. The compilation promises to chill you to the bone, highlighting the complexity of human morality, the pull of regret, and the tantalizing nature of revenge. Our first featured tale, **"Dead Ahead" by Joe Solmo,** introduces us to Becca and Tom, a couple caught in a harrowing accident that spirals into a dark descent of bad choices and supernatural consequences. As they struggle with the implications of their actions, the line between guilt and the supernatural blurs when the jogger they thought they buried returns from the grave to exact its revenge. The tension rises as Becca must confront not only the specter of their crime but also a reckoning with her own past. Next, **“Hell Hath No Fury” by Aaron Cook** draws us into the life of Zelda Mae Darling, a woman trapped in the confines of a disastrous marriage. As she navigates the complexities of love, betrayal, and the haunting effects of her choices, Zelda finds herself entwined in a web of chaos that ultimately leads to her desperate act of self-defense. The chilling twist reveals not only the cost of her actions but the consequences that echo long after her demise. The momentum continues with **“The Stop Sign Man” by Bryce Gibson,** which amplifies the familiar ritualistic urban legend surrounding a cursed stop sign that leads to untold consequences for a group of teenagers. As Stratton Duke celebrates his 17th birthday, the risks of youthful bravado intertwine with a sinister journey that cost him dearly, setting up a nail-biting exploration of innocence lost and the heavy price of recklessness. In this mesmerizing compilation, we are also treated to **“The Devil Reaps the Harvest” by John Oak Dalton** and **“Grave Consequences” by Killian Crane**, which expand on the dark depths of desperation, moral collapse, and the harrowing consequences of one’s actions in life and death. Each tale builds on the overarching theme of justice—often delivered in a supernatural form—that awaits those who tread the line between right and wrong. Finally, **“Dead and Breakfast” by Morgan Moore** closes the episode with a breathless encounter that blends survival and horror in a twisted game of life and death at a seemingly benign bed-and-breakfast. The juxtaposition of warmth and terror unfolds, leading to a shocking climax that leaves listeners questioning the very nature of safety. 🎉 Subscribe to "Weekly Spooky" for more spine-tingling tales that entertain and disturb in equal measure! 📬 Connect with us and entwine your fate with ours: Twitter: @WeeklySpooky Facebook: facebook.com/WeeklySpooky Email: WeeklySpooky@gmail.com 🎵 Music by Ray Mattis.

Monthly Spooky | Swallowed by a Whale, Abandoned Morgues, and Secrets of the Cosmonauts! 2:01:31

hace 15 días2:01:31

2:01:31

In this episode, I dive into a chilling specter of tales both eerie and mystifying, starting with the phenomenon of a kayaker nearly swallowed by a whale. We recount the adventure of Adrian Simancas, who, while kayaking in the Strait of Magellan, found himself lifted by the massive creature. As we explore this story, we reflect on not only the frightening nature of the encounter but also the curiosity of whales that can lead to such close interactions with humans. Next, we turn our attention to an inexplicable occurrence in Munich, Germany, where over 1,000 gravestones were marked with mysterious QR code stickers. Initially perplexed by the sudden appearance of these stickers, which simply provided names and locations of the deceased, the investigation revealed that a gardening company had affixed these codes for maintenance tracking. However, the audacity of placing such markings on graves led to an inquiry into potential property damage, and we discuss the implications of such oddities. As our conversation unfolds, we delve into the realm of conspiracy theories, focusing on the 'Lost Cosmonauts' narrative steeped in Cold War era secrecy regarding the Soviet space program. I share captivating details about Yuri Gagarin's historic flight, then pivot to unsettling hypotheses suggesting that other cosmonauts may have vanished during clandestine missions. With tales of alleged recordings from the Judica Cordiglia brothers revealing voices of cosmonauts in distress—images of desperation that haunt the void of space—I draw connections to the dark history of the Soviet regime's cover-ups, underscoring the rollercoaster of human ambition and the cost of silence in the face of tragedy. Throughout our exploration, I invite guests to contemplate the horror of history obscured by shadows and state-sponsored silence. The episode culminates in a contemplation of our fascination with such forgotten narratives—echoes of lives never celebrated, journeys never completed, and the haunting beauty wrapped in humanity's quest for mastery over the skies. As we close, I leave you with lingering questions about the boundaries of our knowledge and the secrets that may continue to hide just beyond the reaches of our understanding.

Cutting Deep Into Horror | It Comes at Night (2017) 1:38:14

1:38:14

Welcome back to another spine-tingling episode of **Cutting Deep into Horror**, where your hosts, Henrique Couto and Rachael Redolfi, shine a light on the darkest corners of horror cinema. This week, they're diving into the chilling 2017 film *It Comes at Night*, a psychological horror experience that explores themes of fear, paranoia, and the fragility of human relationships in the face of an unseen threat. As they set the stage for their discussion, Henrique and Rachael share their initial thoughts on the film, which was released by A24 during the rise of "elevated horror." They unpack the unique blend of psychological tension and existential dread that permeates this unsettling narrative. While the film portrayed a world ravaged by disease, it's more about the human condition than any monsters lurking in the shadows. The duo emphasizes the film's ability to keep viewers guessing about its true nature—there’s no creature out there, just the deeply ingrained fear of the unknown. Delving deeper, Henrique and Rachael reflect on the pivotal opening scene, where we witness a family's harrowing decision to end the suffering of a loved one amidst a viral apocalypse. This gut-wrenching moment serves as a precursor to the psychological turmoil that follows, setting the tone for a film that constantly challenges perceptions of safety, trust, and survival. They discuss the dynamics within the family, particularly teenage Travis, whose emotional struggles and nightmares shape his journey as the story unfolds. As the episode progresses, the hosts dissect the film's characters, including Travis' relationship with his parents, Paul and Sarah. They highlight how the weight of survival and personal sacrifice alters family dynamics, leading to moments of tension and emotional distance. Rachael points out how Travis feels a disconnect from his father, as Paul is forced to make impossible decisions in the name of protection, leading to a realistic portrayal of parental sacrifice in dire circumstances. Throughout their analysis, Henrique and Rachael touch upon the various elements that contribute to the film’s psychological horror—a labyrinth-like house, the ever-looming absence of light, and the omnipresent anxiety that escalates with every scene. The raw emotions depicted in the characters and the unsettling atmosphere successfully blur the lines between perceived safety and lurking danger. As they navigate the twists and turns of the plot, our hosts discuss the fateful arrival of Will and his family, whose introduction to the isolated household raises the stakes considerably. Constructing a fine balance between cooperation and mistrust, the families’ interactions reveal the fragility of alliances when survival is on the line. This theme of distrust continues to build until the climactic confrontation, which leaves listeners reeling from the implications of human desperation. In the shocking conclusion, Rachael and Henrique articulate how the film culminates in a tragic fate that fully encapsulates its messages—what happens when fear takes over and the lengths people will go to, even to protect their own loved ones. Each character’s development leads to harrowing decisions that escalate the conflict, rendering them spectators of their own downfall as trust evaporates in moments of crisis. In the aftermath of their emotional exploration of *It Comes at Night*, your hosts urge listeners to forge their own connections to this deeply emotional horror film. They end the episode by inviting fans to share their thoughts, theories, and recommendations for future episodes.

Join us in the heart-wrenching and chilling episode of Terrifying and True, we delve into the harrowing life and crimes of Charlie Brandt. A tale steeped in tragedy and hidden monstrosity, Brandt's journey from a seemingly ordinary youth in Fort Wayne, Indiana, to a serial murderer in Florida raises unsettling questions about the duality of human nature and the horrors hidden beneath the surface of everyday life. 🎧 Listen now and subscribe for more horror! 🎉 Unlock bonus content and support us on Patreon !📬 Contact Us / Submit Your Story Twitter: @WeeklySpooky Facebook: facebook.com/WeeklySpooky Email: WeeklySpooky@gmail.com 🎵 Music by Ray Mattis Check out Ray’s work here! 👨‍💼 Executive Producers: Rob Fields, Mark Shields, Bobbletopia.com 🎥 Produced by: Daniel Wilder 🎧 In this episode, Henrique recounts the horrifying incident that ignited Brandt's twisted journey: a shocking act of violence at just 13 years old. On January 3, 1971, within the supposed safety of his family's home, Charlie unleashed chaos, killing his pregnant mother and leaving his father severely injured. The tragic aftermath resulted in silence—the family choosing to suppress the horror as they cast a facade of normalcy, a decision that would haunt them for decades. As the narrative unfolds, we explore Brandt's life after this horrific incident, marked by troubling events lurking just beneath the surface of his seemingly conventional existence in Florida. Listeners grapple with the complexities of his life—how a man could live a double life, hide in plain sight, and ultimately succumb to the dark impulses that would lead to devastating consequences. Henrique masterfully navigates through Brandt's marriage, his struggles for normalcy, and the eventual eruption of violence that would culminate in the brutal murders of his wife and niece in September 2004. The investigation that followed Brandt's death unveils disturbing patterns and connections to multiple unsolved crimes in Florida, leading to the chilling question of how many lives he might have claimed over his decades of secrecy. As Henrique details the gruesome findings at the crime scene—an array of meticulously inflicted wounds on his victims and the shocking discovery of Charlie's unsettling possessions—listeners are drawn deeper into the labyrinth of his disturbed psyche. With each revelation, the episode exposes the stark contrast between Brandt’s outward persona and the shocking brutality of his actions. The compelling storytelling invites listeners to ponder the nature of evil and its capacity to hide among us. How could someone so seemingly ordinary commit such unfathomable acts? How many victims lie in the shadows of his past, left without justice? These questions linger as we reflect on the haunting legacy left in Brandt’s wake. Discover the relentless pursuit for truth as authorities sift through cold cases, seeking answers to unfulfilled justice. Each unsolved murder creeps closer to a horrific possibility—that one man’s dark secret could encompass far more than anyone dared imagine. Charlie Brandt’s story serves as a chilling reminder of the unpredictable nature of humanity, compelling us to confront fears that dwell within and around us. His tale encourages us to scrutinize those we think we know, as sometimes, the most dangerous monsters are those hidden in plain sight. As the curtains close on this episode, listeners are left with an unsettling challenge—a haunting contemplation of the darkness that looms in everyday life. Tune in to hear this profound journey of darkness, and find solace in knowing you are not alone in unraveling the mysteries of the human mind.
