SILENT MUSHROOMS: A Provocative Texas Crime Thriller with a Disabled—And Deeply Flawed—Lead
By GlobeNewswire Published on June 25, 2025, 20:00 IST Charleston, SC, June 25, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — A riveting new Texas-based crime thriller launches from Palmetto Publishing, featuring political scandals, government corruption, and a man with a deeply flawed past caught in the crossfire. Silent Mushrooms stars Tomas Peapers, a man diagnosed with nonverbal Asperger's whose voyeuristic tendencies have frequently put him on the wrong side of the law. When a savage crime takes place—the brutal murder of three women in their home—Peapers is the perfect scapegoat for hiding secrets the powerful want buried, and the judge sentences him to death row. But when Texas Ranger Jackie Morris returns from an assignment in Costa Rica after losing the love of her life, she soon comes across the Peapers case—and red flags begin to flare. Now in a new role as Chief of Detectives for Harris County and battling overwhelming grief, Morris is asked by Houston mayor Sandy Waters to look deeper into the case. As she does, she uncovers corruption at the highest levels of government. As the humanitarian organization and legal advocacy group the Justice Project works to release Peapers, Morris may have another chance to track down the real killer—if the pair can find a way to communicate. Following a trail of lies and debauchery from Texas to Costa Rica, the two will soon be pitted against political giants, corporate collusion, and dark plans for the state they call home. Silent Mushrooms is the unfolding story of a conspiracy more sinister than its characters imagine, a bleak and gritty psychological drama featuring a damaged hero working side-by-side with a morally compromised protagonist. This book by author Gerald Thompson is a thriller made for fans who aren't afraid of the dark corners of the human soul. Blending courtroom drama, political intrigue, and a relentless pursuit of justice, it is a story about how hope comes from unlikely places—a powerful meditation on redemption and human complexity in the face of corruption.

Iconic Radio DJ Makes Major Announcement After Legendary 55-Year Career
Iconic Radio DJ Makes Major Announcement After Legendary 55-Year Career originally appeared on Parade. The doctor is…out. After spending more than half a century playing some of the quirkiest and funniest music imaginable—while also launching the career of"Weird Al" Yankovic—the legendary radio personality Dr. Demento is retiring. Dr. Demento, aka Barry Hansen, began hosting The Dr. Demento Show in October 1970 on KPPC Pasadena, California (now known as KROQ-FM). A syndicated version of the show launched in 1974 and ran until 2010. And since then, fans have been able to listen to The Dr. Demento Show through its official website. In a recent episode, after counting down a monthly top 10, the good doctor told his loyal "dementos" and "dementites" that he was ending his historic career. "I'm now 84 years old, and I have been doing this show for nearly 55 years -- about two-thirds of my life," he said, according to The Pittsburgh Reporter. "It's been a blast, but I have come to the decision that I need to hang up my top hat soon. The show you just heard is the last of my regular shows." Although regular programming has ended, Dr. Demento will host a series of bi-weekly retrospective episodes leading up to a grand finale in October, culminating in his 55th anniversary. The Dr. Demento Show began as a freeform rock program before Hansen, an avid collector of novelty records, started sharing these oddball songs with his listeners. He filled the airwaves with songs like Bobby "Boris" Pickett's "The Monster Mash," Benny Bell's "Shaving Cream," and Barnes & Barnes' "Fish Heads." On March 14, 1976, Dr. Demento changed music with a 'Doctor Demento Exclusive.' After playing Frankie Yankovic's 'How Many Burps in a Bottle of Beer,' Dr. Demento brought on 'another fellow who plays the accordion.' He then played 'Belvedere Cruisin' by a young Alfred Yankovic. The response was so positive that Yankovic, newly christened "Weird Al," continued to write more parodies, like "My Bologna," his take on The Knack's "My Sharona. Dr. Demento then funded Yankovic's first EP, Another One Rides the Bus, which helped Yankovic secure a record deal and kickstart his career (which is still ongoing; Yankovic is currently on tour). Hansen, who has a BA and MA in classical and folk music, was inducted into the Radio Hall of Fame in Radio DJ Makes Major Announcement After Legendary 55-Year Career first appeared on Parade on Jun 19, 2025 This story was originally reported by Parade on Jun 19, 2025, where it first appeared.
