EP194: Women Can Be Predators, Too.

EP194: Women Can Be Predators, Too.

A 28-year-old female teacher. Multiple teenage boys. And a case that forces us to confront one uncomfortable question: Why is society so much slower to recognize abuse when the predator is a woman and the victim is a teenage boy? In this episode, we examine the case of Rebecca Joynes, a former teacher convicted of sexually abusing teenage students she was entrusted to protect. We break down the evidence presented in court, the grooming behaviors that allowed the abuse to continue, the lasting impact on the boys at the center of the case, and the psychological dynamics that make female sexual offending uniquely misunderstood. This episode also explores the societal double standards that can prevent male victims from being recognized, believed, and supported. Please Follow/Subscribe wherever you are listening!

EP193: The Skara Cannibal

Trigger warning: This episode discusses domestic violence, homicide and cannibalism. Please listen with caution. On November 12, 2010, Isakin Drabbad, aka The Skara Cannibal, walked into his girlfriend's bedroom carrying a knife and committed one of the most brutal homicide cases in modern Scandinavian history. After fatally slashing Helle Christensen's throat, Isakin violated her body, decapitated her, dismembered her remains, and removed portions of her flesh, which he later cooked and consumed. The cannibalism is certainly what made headlines...but it wasn't the full story.  It was merely the final, devastating expression of a mind that had been unraveling for years.

EP192: "BIG Girls Wanted" — Content House or Fetish Farm?

Trigger Warning: This episode discusses the difficult topic of sexual abuse. Listener discretion advised. "Big Girls Wanted: Escaping Pearadise" has taken the internet by storm, and it's easy to see why. Beyond the allegations themselves, it forces us to confront a number of uncomfortable but important conversations.  In this episode we dive deep into Pearadise, the viral content house in Las Vegas built around "BBW" (Big Beautiful Women) that's igniting debates about body positivity, feederism, fetish culture, and online fame. Is Pearadise creating a space where plus-sized women can thrive and take control of their image, or is it blurring the line between empowerment and exploitation? From the business model and growing backlash to the lawsuit and allegations of sexual abuse, we examine every side of the Pearadise controversy. The opinions expressed in this episode are my own and are based on publicly available information, court records, interviews, and other source material available at the time of recording. Where allegations of abuse, misconduct, or criminal behavior are discussed, they are presented as allegations unless they have been proven in a court of law or otherwise established by reliable evidence. This episode is intended for commentary, analysis, and educational purposes and should not be interpreted as a definitive statement of fact regarding any disputed claim. Join my Patreon family!
