The Devil's Ledger - Week of March 9th

🎙️ The Devil’s Ledger Week of March 9 Welcome back to The Devil’s Ledger, the weekly dispatch from across the Evio Universe — where we catch you up on everything happening across the network and occasionally ask the kinds of questions that make you realize nobody is really in charge of anything. For example… Daylight Saving Time. Really? Still? We’re still doing this? Let’s do better, government. This week on The Devil Within, we travel to Scotland and investigate one of the most ominous places in the entire United Kingdom: Hermitage Castle. For centuries this fortress has been associated with demonic possession, violent hauntings, shadow figures, and enough verified paranormal encounters to make even experienced investigators take a step back and say, “You know what… maybe we’ll just admire this one from the parking lot.” This is the castle that guards what historians call the bloodiest valley in Britain. And if the accounts are even half true, Hermitage Castle might be one of the most paranormally active places in Europe. That’s this week on The Devil Within. Meanwhile on The Ides of April, we conclude our series Son of the Blade. For more than two thousand years historians have been arguing about the untimely death of Alexander the Great. One of the greatest military commanders in human history conquers most of the known world by the age of thirty-two… and then suddenly dies... Over on Criminal Mischief, we’re proud to re-release Episode One of The Shadow Girls. For many listeners around the world, this was the podcast that first introduced journalist Carolyn Ossorio to a global audience. There’s a reason we’re bringing this episode back — and that reason will be revealed during the episode itself. So if you’ve never heard The Shadow Girls, or if you remember the impact it had when it first premiered, don’t miss this one. Taboo Treasures is dark for the week — but the show will return soon with more strange, rare, and occasionally unsettling artifacts from history. Meanwhile comedian Josh Wolf is — as they say — here all week. His daily podcast and journal Finding Me continues to explore his personal journey of self-discovery, creativity, family life, comedy, and the strange process of figuring out who we are while we’re still in the middle of becoming it. And finally, in horror this week we have a fascinating adaptation coming to streaming. The Long Walk — based on Stephen King’s 1979 novel. The premise is simple and terrifying. In a dystopian version of the United States, fifty teenage boys are forced into a televised endurance competition. The rules are brutally straightforward. Each walker must maintain a pace of three miles per hour. If they slow down, they receive a warning. Three warnings… and soldiers execute them. That’s The Long Walk, coming soon to streaming. And that’s it for this week’s Devil’s Ledger. Thanks for listening… and we’ll see you this week across the Evio Universe. 💼 SPONSORS 🛋️ RULA Online therapy that takes your insurance.
