- ‘We were always pressured to behave like Disneyland employees…in reality, it was complete chaos’
The Informer reveals what it was like to work in a corrupt rehab facility.

Patients were picking up on-site and staff were even having affairs with each other. Profit was constantly prioritized over patients, with serious consequences on their recovery.

With intensive training and firearms experience, their presence in extremist groups presents a pretty dangerous combination. These are the people who, ultimately, decide who lives and who dies.

The only group of its kind, BDS essentially functions like a normal sorority with chapters all over the country & they offer support, host events and classes.

- 30 Years With the Yakuza | Bad Blood
- Date posted
- 4 years ago
- Description
- Seung-Woo Yang entered the universe of the Korean Yakuza in his teens. The death by suicide of his friend drove him to start capturing the world, to cement his memories with his friends, some of whom are still active members of organized crime in South Korea.
When he moved to Japan in 1997, he started photographing the Yakuza elite of Tokyo's underworld. There he discovered the intricacies of honor, pride and violence in the subculture.
Over the years, he's intimately captured the soft underbelly of South Korea and Japan and has seen some pretty sordid things.
He’s widely renowned for the rare access he has to the Japanese and Korean Yakuza.
We follow him on his news assignments, capturing the gambling games of fairground workers called the Tekiya and glitzy life of the Host bars in Japan, all while he shares one enrapturing story after the other of his noir life with the Yakuza.

- Making $1.5M/month on OnlyFans and Twitch: Amouranth | My Life Online
- Date posted
- 4 years ago
- Description
- In this episode of My Life Online, we dive into the life of Amouranth, one of the most-watched women on Twitch, who rakes in $1.5 million a month.
Kaitlyn Siragusa, aka Amouranth, spent 60% of the last 5 years (that’s 1055 days) live streaming and often live streams for 14 hrs straight - gaming, dancing, talking to fans, licking microphones and even sleeping. Because her content is considered to be sexually risque, she often gets trolled, swatted & banned but she does her best not to listen to the haters and works tirelessly on her media empire. Every minute she spends online gets her closer to her ultimate goal of building an animal sanctuary-- but she struggles with chronic fatigue, overall deteriorating mental health, and perpetual loneliness -- is it worth it?

- Date posted

- Description
- Tassie tigers, otherwise known as thylacines, were thought to have become extinct after the last known specimen “Benjamin” died in a Hobart zoo in 1936. But new evidence and a growing civilian movement are challenging that belief, with the Thylacine Awareness Group of Australia (TAGOA) boasting 10,000 members Australia-wide.
In this episode of Australiana, we embed with its president, Neil Waters, a retired gardener who commits his life savings to an epic two year search for the ancient marsupial. As Neil edges closer to a tantalising ‘re-discovery’, the search brings him hope and meaning, but we also learn the price of this obsession.
