If you listened on April 14th, you'll remember Vince rebroadcasting a show un-heard on KCAA in 6 years. It was his first in a series of specials by, for and about victims of childhood sexual abuse, at the hands of clergy. It was called "Tapestry of Torment." He hosted two more of these specials. Today, you'll hear the follow-up, "Tapestry of Torment II: A Life Interrupted," which also has not aired since its original air date of September 30, 2006. Speaking of interruptions, there will be none for commercials, except one break early in the first hour. For more info on guests and format, click the Facebook logo above to your left.
Your Invitation to Some Classic Vinnie ...
Segment 1
On March 3rd from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. (PST) travel back in time with us for a special show featuring two segments unheard in years. They are from Vince Daniels' original incarnation of "The Many Moods" and are hosted by Daniels and show announcer, Bruce Barker.
First-up is a segment that originally aired on KCAA in September, 2006. What began as a study of religious cults and cultish mentality (with guest, Dave Touretzky of Carnegie Mellon University), grew into something bigger. Touretzky introduced Vinnie to Tory Christman, an OT-7, one of the higher levels in the Church of Scientology.
Thinking that her story was more than enough to carry the show, Vince had no idea that Dave would surprise and shock him more by introducing him to Greg Beha. While the above picture of Greg (shown sitting in truck) seems to tell the whole story, wait till you hear him confront Clark Carr, the president of Narconon on this explosive show. It was the beginning of a long, protracted battle for a man and his family that had no idea that they were sending their son to a Scientology indoctrination center, when they thought they were sending him to get cleaned up from a terrible drug addiction.
If you think that's something, wait till you hear from Mr. Bob Adams, VP of Public Affairs for the Church of Scientology in Los Angeles who asked to be on the show following Beha's segment - especially when he's face to face with Tory Christman in studio, whom Adams described as an "apostate" before asking her to remove her headphones.

One of my friends, Joel Dockum, whom I have come to know over the
internet, appeared on your station today. I listened to every second of it via webcast ... what I witnessed was nothing short of a genuine and moving story.
Both Joel and Trish won the respect of my parents and nephew, who were very nosey and sat on my bed while I was glued to the computer chair ... I was listening to The Many Moods of Vinnie Daniels on WPMD over the internet, waiting for Trish and Joel to come on. I`m uber excited about this ... The story they have to tell is the best I`ve heard in a while ... if you don't know what I'm talking about ... When he was a baby, Joel was diagnosed with a hole in the muscle wall of his heart. He always dreamed of one day playing professional baseball, but subaortic stenosis forever denied him that opportunity. Filled with bitterness and rebellion, Joel met a young lady on the internet named Trish in Indiana. Trish was able to help him have his moment in the sun. Joel, his Mom and their dog, drove 2200 miles to Fort Wayne for a week that changed his life forever.
I`m highly amused listening to an American radio station ... the accent, oh yeah, I love me some American accents ... My crappy town doesn`t have cable internet capabilities yet, so I`m on crappy dial-up. SO ... I`ve had to inform the dwellers of this household that the telephone line will be unusable for the next two hours. Oh how they love me ... OK my mum just walked past my bedroom door and said "eeww who`s that talking?" heh I don`t think she`s down with the American accent.
"And then a HERO comes along" was the song they closed the show with. It was wonderful, I listened to every second of it ... both before and during Joel and Trish`s appearance ... I really loved what I heard. I find your station, to be real, so damn real - unlike many of the stations I have listened to before ... I won`t go on, I just wanted to give a major shout-out to Joel, Trish and Vinnie ... It was a very moving show ... My dad, mum and nephew were sitting in here on my bed listening, and I could still hear them talking about Joel and Trish half an hour after the show ended!
I just want to say Joel that you belong on the freakin' airwaves!

Segment 2
Put Me In Coach ...
I'm Ready to Play
Starting at approx 11:25 a.m. (PST) you'll hear a 90-minute story that goes all the way back
to almost the beginning of "The Many Moods" and from Vince's first venue, WPMD Internet
Radio, Cerritos College. In those days, "Newsman Nick" was the sports director using the handle,
Nick Nathanson.
The inspiration for this 'Make-A-Wish' segment came from a young lady named Trish Garigen who
e-mailed Vinnie an article that she thought would make a great story for his show. Over the years
it would be remembered as the best and most moving story ever shared. Get ready to go back
to a hot summer Saturday in 2003 when Daniels' show used to be on from 4 to 8 p.m. From the
moment you hear John Fogerty sing "Centerfield" at the beginning of the 90 minutes, you'll
understand the back-drop to this story.
This was also a show about the coming together of 3 pen-pals in the early days of social networking
on the internet, prior to Myspace and Facebook. To read the story about Trish and Joel, check
out the article from the Fort Wayne Journal Gazzette, "Wizards Make a Wish Come True" by going
