Today, we?re sharing a preview of The Final Hours, a true crime podcast from Crime House,

powered by PAVE Studios.

Hosted by Sarah Turney and Kourtney Nichole, The Final Hours examines the moments just

before a person disappears. The routines. The timelines. And the small details that often get

overlooked, until it?s too late.

Sarah is an advocate for missing and murdered victims whose sister disappeared in 2001.

Kourtney is a true crime storyteller and investigator who witnessed firsthand how crime can

change a family forever. Together, they bring lived experience into every case, looking not only

at what happened, but what led up to it.

Listen to and follow The Final Hours on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Amazon Music, or wherever

you listen to podcasts. New episodes are out every Monday.

Caitlin Mathis is a victim advocate and survivor from Texas. In the summer between graduating high school and entering college, she began a relationship with a man whose future actions would change her life - and a whole town - forever. After consequently navigating the inner workings of the law enforcement and criminal justice systems during her college years, she now shares in the media all that came next in her journey. Caitlin hopes to inspire awareness and change for survivors everywhere, in honor of Jackie Vandagriff and all other victims. We are so grateful for her work and all the good she?s spurred from her heartache. This episode is dedicated in loving memory of Jackie Vandagriff.

Please note: Kenny Pannell and Mary Alexine have never publicly responded to allegations against them. They appear to be no longer involved with Chrysalis in Eureka, Montana since its sale to Embark Behavioral Health. Chrysalis opened in 1998; however, the exact year when Kenny and Mary left is not readily available information.

*Correction: In a previous draft of this episode, we incorrectly reported that, "Intermountain Hospital in Boise, Idaho, which is still in operation and under the ownership of Intermountain Health." which is incorrect. Intermountain Health has no affiliation with Intermountain Hospital. We apologize for the error and appreciate it being brought to our attention. Thank you!

Season 24 of Something Was Wrong shares the harrowing truths of international Institutional Child Abuse (often called the ?troubled teen industry?) through powerful interviews with survivors of wilderness therapy programs, therapeutic boarding schools, and other institutions around the world. 

These firsthand accounts expose an alarming pattern of abuse, neglect, and trauma disguised as treatment, alongside testimony from parents who entrusted these programs with their children. With expert insights from leading voices in the children?s rights advocacy space and adolescent mental health, Season 24 explores how programs have operated in the shadows for decades and why their harmful practices continue today.

John Callas is a writer, director, and producer with an extensive list of projects including his six novels, the television show Bobby's World, and much more. His career began in the mid-seventies, and offered John a creative outlet after a very tumultuous childhood. From losing his father at a young age to surviving highly abusive school environments, He joins us today to share all that came next for him after publicly disclosing his difficult childhood, and releasing a memoir that was fifty years-in-the-making. The Broken Cycle Media team is deeply appreciative of John's time, energy, and creativity in curating healing.
