    MIND OF A KILLER | Episode 3: The Vampire of Sacramento | Anneliese Chase

    In this chilling conclusion to Mind of a Killer, host Anneliese Chase examines Richard Trenton Chase—the “Vampire of Sacramento”—who murdered six people in 1977–78, drinking their blood and mutilating their bodies. We trace his descent from a tortured childhood of animal cruelty and untreated schizophrenic delusions to a horrifying killing spree fueled by paranoid psychosis. Through expert analysis and firsthand accounts, we explore how genetic vulnerability and environmental neglect combined to create one of America’s most disturbing killers.

    MISSING OUT | Episode 3: NOMO (No More Missing Out) | Tori Richardson

    In this final chapter of Missing Out, Tori Richardson introduces NOMO—No More Missing Out—a personal framework for finding balance between engagement and simplicity. Rather than dwelling on fear or even joy in what you skip, NOMO celebrates the normalcy in life’s trade-offs. To illustrate this, Tori sits down with her parents, Jenny and Adolf Richardson, who share how their own childhoods—rooted in discipline, community and family activities—shaped a mindset where missing out was simply part of a well-rounded life. As Tori guides her parents through questions about regret, “normal” experiences, and pivotal life decisions, you’ll discover that there isn’t a one-size-fits-all blueprint for happiness. Instead, NOMO is about owning your schedule, honoring the stages of life, and trusting that the moments you choose to embrace—both big and small—are exactly where you’re meant to be. 📧 Email us at info@nationalhumanservices.org for details on how to get involved with The Student Podcast Collaborative.

    TURF TALK | Episode 3: Managing & Merging Identities | Roderick Boyd

    In this third installment of Turf Talk, Roderick Boyd reflects on a season unlike any other—one defined by a serious labrum injury that benched him for his senior year and forced him to rediscover who he was off the field. From the locker room to the media center, Roderick shares how he leaned on teammates like Gavin and Quinn Seager to stay connected, then channeled his energy into his true passion: communications and media. You’ll follow Roderick’s journey into TV-production classes, behind-the-scenes work at Assumption’s Media Center, and a bold leap into daily vlogging that skyrocketed his TikTok views. He explains how he balanced early-morning workouts and film study with editing graphics, live-streaming D2 combines, and even shooting battle-rap events for his family’s businesses. As he prepared to return to the gridiron, Roderick confronted the challenge of merging two identities—student-athlete and content creator—and learned to embrace vulnerability in front of the camera and on the sideline. This episode is packed with hard-earned insights on staying motivated through identity shifts, finding new ways to contribute when you can’t play, and the mindset it takes to step back into competition after a year away. If you’re navigating your own crossroads—whether injury, career change, or creative pursuits—you’ll walk away inspired to merge your passions without losing yourself. 📧 Email us at info@nationalhumanservices.org for details on how to get involved with The Student Podcast Collaborative.

    MIND OF A KILLER | Episode 2: The Highway Killer | Anneliese Chase

    In this chilling second episode of Mind of a Killer, host Anneliese Chase unravels the story of Aileen Wuornos—dubbed “America’s first female serial killer”—and asks how a deeply abused child became a cold-blooded murderer on Florida’s highways. You’ll hear the harrowing details of Aileen’s childhood: abandonment by her teenage mother, sexual and physical abuse at the hands of her grandfather, and a life on the margins where survival meant drug use, sex work, and petty crime. As she drifted from motel to roadside, Aileen developed a profound distrust of men—one that she later claimed justified her brutal killings in self-defense. Through eyewitness accounts, court testimony, and the voices of psychologists like Todd Grand, we explore each highway slaying—from Richard Mallory to Steven Nesson—and how ballistic evidence, stolen property, and Tyra Moore’s betrayal finally brought Aileen to justice. Along the way, we delve into nature vs. nurture debate: Were her violent impulses born from a genetic predisposition and neurological differences, or forged by decades of trauma and neglect? This episode paints a nuanced portrait of a woman shaped by both her biology and her brutal upbringing. 📧 Email us at info@nationalhumanservices.org for details on how to get involved with The Student Podcast Collaborative.

    MISSING OUT | Episode 2: JOMO (Joy of Missing Out) | Tori Richardson

    In this episode of Missing Out, Tori Richardson tackles the flip side of FOMO and dives into JOMO—the Joy of Missing Out. Inspired by comedian Nate Bargatse’s “Hello World!” special, Tori and her guest, Professor Christopher Gilbert, explore why sometimes saying “no thanks” is the best decision you can make. They unpack how intentional solitude—choosing a cozy night in, a solo bike ride, or family time—can bring genuine happiness, even as social media and peer pressure ping us to stay plugged in. Professor Gilbert shares his personal criteria for choosing meaningful alone time over constant engagement and explains how structuring your day and resisting external influences (like Strava or Instagram pings) can transform anxiety into joy. From rediscovering the simple pleasures of farmstead hobbies to trading a Friday night out for quality moments with loved ones, you’ll learn strategies to reclaim your schedule and embrace experiences on your own terms. 📧 Email us at info@nationalhumanservices.org for details on how to get involved with The Student Podcast Collaborative.

Deuce takes us through his transition from high school recruit to college athlete, sharing how he built friendships in the locker room and leaned on upperclassmen to find his footing. He digs into the reality of “student-athlete” life—early morning workouts, back-to-back classes, film study, and how a single missed assignment can derail both your GPA and your game-day focus. You’ll discover Deuce’s proven time-management playbook: map out your weekly schedule and syllabi, tackle homework in every available gap, resist the nap trap, and communicate early with professors when travel or games threaten deadlines. He explains why a disciplined routine unlocks true freedom—letting you savor college life without sacrificing grades or the grind on the field. Whether you’re headed to campus next fall or striving to sharpen your own productivity, this episode delivers hard-earned advice on staying consistent, carving out quality relationships, and thriving under pressure. 📧 Email us at info@nationalhumanservices.org for details on how to get involved with The Student Podcast Collaborative.
