62 Million Men: Part 2

Trigger warnings: sexual assault, abuse, and discussion of violence. Episode 20 of Traumatically Speaking, 62 Million Men Part 2, continues a conversation that started with a courtroom and expanded into something far more disturbing. What began with the case of Dominique Pelicot and Gisèle Pelicot, a woman who was drugged and assaulted for years without her knowledge while her husband invited other men to participate, becomes a much larger examination of the systems that allowed it to happen. Gisèle’s decision to be seen and to reject shame set the tone for a conversation that refuses to look away. Building on part one, Sloan and Lex go deeper into the investigation that revealed this was not an isolated case, but part of a much larger network. Through months long work, investigators uncovered online spaces where abuse was not only shared, but encouraged and monetized. On platforms that drew tens of millions of visits, there were entire communities dedicated to content involving unconscious women, alongside discussions that normalized and facilitated that violence. This episode also brings attention to other survivors, including Amanda Stanhope and a woman known as Valentina, whose experiences further highlight the reality that this is happening across different spaces and to different people, often without accountability. The conversation centers on the fact that this is not rare, it is not hidden, and it is not disconnected. It is happening within relationships, within homes, and within systems that continue to fail survivors. Before closing, Sloan shares her own personal experience with spousal SA, grounding the discussion in the lived reality behind the headlines. This episode is heavy, intentional, and a continuation of a conversation that demands to be had. Want a chance to have your story shared on the pod?

62 Million Men: Part 1 (Rerun)

Trigger warnings: sexual assault, abuse, and discussion of violence. Episode 19 of Traumatically Speaking, 62 Million Men Part 1 rerun, is a re recording of an episode that Sloan felt could not stay up in its original form. After recognizing that key facts were misstated, important context was missing, and the conversation did not do justice to survivors, Sloan and Lex made the decision to revisit it and do it right. In this updated episode, they take a deeper and more accurate look at a CNN investigation into what is often referred to as sleep content, where victims are filmed and assaulted while unconscious, frequently by their own partners. They also talk about Gisèle Pelicot, whose case helped bring attention to the issue and sparked broader awareness of how widespread and normalized this kind of violence can be. Through the work of Saskya Vandoorne, also known here as Queen Sassy, Sloan and Lex unpack the darker corners of the internet where these behaviors are shared, encouraged, and too often dismissed. The conversation centers on the reality that this violence is happening within relationships, not outside of them, and why that makes it even more difficult to confront. Before closing out part one, Sloan shares Zoe Watts story, bringing a human perspective to the broader discussion and grounding the episode in the real impact these experiences have on survivors. This episode is a more thoughtful, informed, and intentional retelling of a conversation that deserved to be handled with care the first time. Want a chance to have your story shared on the pod?

T.T.T.K.U.U.A.N. #3: “You too.”

Episode 19: T.T.TK.U.U.A.N. #3 What’s up, Chaos Cousins—welcome home, bitches (Lex said it, not Sloan 💅). This week is pure silly goose chaos to cleanse your emotional palate, and somehow it still spirals. Sloan brings part two of her full-blown identity crisis where—brace yourselves—she went on dates with MEN???? Yes. Plural. On purpose. For science. For therapy. For chaos. Lex, meanwhile, delivers the most unhinged Elf on the Shelf story you’ll ever hear—featuring tongs and a child absolutely fighting for her life after making accidental contact. Trauma? Yes. Hilarious? Also yes. And just when Sloan thinks she’s recovered, she shares the pickup line fumble that humbled her to her core. We’re talking life-altering, ego-bruising, 3AM ceiling-staring embarrassment. (“You too” has never hit harder.) Moral of the story: trust your instincts, don’t touch the elf, and if you have a hot one-liner—COMMIT. Send us your funniest “things that keep you up at night."

T. T. T. K. U. U. A. N. #2: A Bummer Lamb

Trigger warnings: sexual assault, childhood trauma, and animal death. Episode 17 of Traumatically Speaking brings back The Things That Keep Us Up At Night, where the late night thoughts get a little darker and a lot more honest. In this episode, Sloan and Lex move through a mix of stories that are uncomfortable, unexpected, and hard to shake. They talk about a bummer lamb, read a traumatic submission from Chaos Cousin Debbie, and Sloan shares a very unfortunate work story that lives rent free in her mind. Lex closes the episode by opening up about a deeply personal experience of being assaulted by a male best friend in high school, and the lasting impact that kind of betrayal can have. It is dark, a little chaotic, and a reminder that some things do not just go away when the lights turn off. Want a chance to have your story shared on the pod?
