EP# 33 A Nation's Wake-Up Call: The Disappearances of Etan Patz & Adam Walsh | Podcasthon 2025 Special

Send us Fan MailFor this special episode of Chambers of the Occult, we’re honored to be part of Podcasthon 2025, a powerful event bringing together over a thousand podcasts to support charities making a real impact. This year, we’re shining a light on the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children (NCMEC)—an organization dedicated to finding missing children, fighting child exploitation, and supporting families in their darkest moments.In this episode, Kai covers the case of Etan Patz, the six-year-old boy whose disappearance in 1979 forever changed the way missing children cases are handled in the U.S. His case led to groundbreaking changes, including the establishment of National Missing Children's Day.Then, J takes on the tragic case of Adam Walsh, whose 1981 abduction and murder shocked the nation and led his father, John Walsh, to become a relentless advocate for missing children—ultimately leading to the creation of NCMEC itself.Together, we discuss the lasting impact of these cases, the life-saving work of NCMEC, and how we can all help protect the most vulnerable.Listen now, stay informed, and support the cause at missingkids.orgPlus, check out more incredible podcasts supporting meaningful causes at podcasthon.org
