Podcasts about Alienation

Following several recent violent incidents involving transgender-identified perpetrators, media and lawmakers are increasingly proposing firearm restrictions based not on criminal conduct — but on identity.But what happens when investigators begin examining digital footprints instead of demographic categories?In this episode of Tranny Tuesday, Chad Law walks through:Why status-based firearm bans are analytically flawedWhat investigators are actually finding in online ecosystemsThe role of AI alignment discourse in emerging ethical radicalizationThe difference between academic long-termism and downstream extremismThe rise of the Zizian network within rationalist subculturesAnd why policymakers may be designing solutions to the wrong problem entirelyBecause banning a demographic group may feel decisive —but it does nothing to address a worldview.

In this episode of The Discourse, Erika Barootes is joined by guest co-host Supriya Dwivedi for a sharp, no-nonsense conversation on Canada's growing immigration and separation tensions.

Ken Landau talks with journalist and award-winning fiction writer Fran Hawthorne, who discusses her latest novel, "Her Daughter". This book covers important legal topics including parental alienation, domestic abuse and reconciling after estrangement between parents and children.

The book of Hosea is one of the most emotionally intense and theologically rich prophetic books in the Old Testament—and its opening chapters give us a lens for reading everything that follows.In this episode, we explore Hosea 1:1–2:1 as a paradigm for the entire book. From the very beginning, Hosea alternates between devastating bad news and breathtaking good news—prophecies of judgment and discipline followed by promises of renewal, restoration, and hope. That rhythm is not accidental. It's the heartbeat of Hosea's message.We begin with Hosea's shocking marriage to Gomer, a woman characterized by persistent unfaithfulness. This marriage is not merely biographical—it is prophetic. Hosea's relationship with Gomer becomes a living parable of God's covenant relationship with Northern Israel, exposing Israel's spiritual adultery and fractured loyalty to YHWH.We then examine the three children born to Hosea and Gomer and the symbolic weight of their names—names that announce judgment, estrangement, and the sobering diagnosis of their covenant identity. In particular, we wrestle with God's declaration to Israel: “You are not my people.” But Hosea makes it clear—this is not the end of Israel's story.By the end of chapter 1, the prophecy turns. Rejection gives way to restoration. Alienation gives way to belonging. Hosea foretells a future reversal in which those once called “not my people” will be called “sons of the living God.” Crucially, this promise is anchored to geography—“in the place” where judgment was pronounced, restoration will occur—pointing to a concrete, historical fulfillment within Israel's own land.From there, we trace how the apostle Paul draws on this very passage in Romans 9:23–26, arguing that Hosea's prophecy is already beginning to be fulfilled as Israelites come to faith in Jesus the Messiah. This includes Jews living in regions historically associated with Northern Israel in Paul's own day. What Hosea foresaw, Paul recognizes as unfolding.At the heart of both Hosea's and Paul's message is a profound claim: Israel's unfaithfulness is not the end of the story. God will reunite Northern Israel and Southern Judah under one leader, restoring them to be the people He always intended them to be.And that matters—not just for Israel, but for us.Because if God can reverse Israel's destiny, He can reverse the destiny of the world. Their story is bound up with ours. Their restoration speaks to our hope. The God who refuses to abandon Israel is the same God who refuses to abandon creation itself.Key Passages: Hosea 1:1-2:1Romans 9:23-26Explainer⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Video⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ on how to use ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.biblehub.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ and ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.blueletterbible.org⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Leave us a question or comment at our ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠website podcast page⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠.

Most so-called “high conflict” divorces are not what people think they are.The term suggests two volatile adults locked in mutual chaos. But in a significant subset of cases, what looks like dysregulation is strategic. It is controlled, reputationally aware, and often concealed behind the language of concern, therapy, and child wellbeing.In this episode, I examine how some separations become arenas for status repair and control after narcissistic injury. Drawing on trait-based personality psychology — particularly the Dark Tetrad — I outline why diagnostic psychiatry and family courts frequently misread these dynamics, and why well-intentioned interventions can unintentionally strengthen them.If you have lived through this, you will recognise the pattern.If you are trying to understand why standard advice keeps failing, this will clarify why.Free material is about recognizing patterns. The paid tier exists for a different purpose: applying that understanding to real situations.

Alienation and Lament

Ribbentrop in London: Gaffes and Alienation: Colleague Charles Spicer describes Ribbentrop's arrival in London as Ambassador with a cynical mandate from Hitler to neutralize Britain diplomatically, characterizing his tenure as a social disaster marked by gaffes such as giving the Nazi salute to the King; his wife Anneliese is depicted as thin-skinned and unable to handle the British press's mockery, while Sir Neville Henderson, the British Ambassador to Berlin, whose desire to accommodate Hitler was exacerbated by his secret battle with terminal cancer, influenced disastrous appeasement policies. 1933

Using the framework, A.R.T. (Alienation, Restoration, Transformation) to show us how the sin of unforgiveness keeps us alienated to God and others, we highlight the behavioral markers that help us to recognize when we have unforgiveness and wickedness in our hearts and what God's word instructs us to do about it. We are encouraged us to seek repentance and restoration.

PREVIEW — Richard Reinsch — Alienation in America: The Loss of Political Membership to the Supreme Court. Reinsch discusses the alienation of Americans resulting from the transfer of decision-making authority from state legislatures to the Supreme Court. The centralization of deeply intimate and controversial public policy decisions to national judicial bodies disconnects citizens from local political participation and community standards, generating widespread anger and frustration that fuels contemporary political movements demanding systemic change. 1905

Lawrence Joss explores the deeper systemic roots of parental alienation, revealing how alienation unfolds gradually through subtle family dynamics rather than appearing overnight. He and Dr. Charlie unpack how cultural norms, family structures, and early relational patterns shape the roles parents step into, and how those roles can quietly shift power, boundaries, and attachment inside the family system.Key TakeawaysParental alienation is a gradual process.Negative talk about a parent is common in relationships.Cultural norms influence parenting roles significantly.In some cultures, mothers are primarily caregivers.Fathers often take on structural roles in parenting.Understanding alienation requires a cultural lens.Parental roles can vary widely across different societies.The dynamics of family relationships are complex.Emotional care is often seen as a mother's role.Structural care is typically associated with fathers.Chapters0:00 – Safety, Survival & Early Alienation Patterns 2:05 – What the Systemic Lens Reveals 5:40 – When Problems Become Relational 9:20 – Cultural & Structural Pressures on Families 11:55 – Alienation as a Gradual Process 14:40 – Boundary Breakdowns & Role Confusion 17:55 – Power Shifts: Children Elevated to Partner Role 21:25 – Why Kids Choose the Unpredictable Parent 25:40 – Subtle Behaviors That Shift Family Hierarchy 28:30 – Parentification & Emotional Oversharing 31:55 – Long-Term Effects on Attachment & Identity 35:50 – Attraction Patterns & the Drama TriangleIf you wish to connect with Lawrence Joss or any of the PA-A community members who have appeared as guests on the podcast:Email - familydisappeared@gmail.comLinktree: https://linktr.ee/lawrencejoss(All links mentioned in the podcast are available in Linktree)Connect with Dr Charlie Azzopardi:Website: https://ift-malta.com/⁩Courses (IFT Malta): https://ift-malta.com/courses-2/European Journal of Parental Alienation (EJPAP):https://ift-malta.com/elementor-1206/Please donate to support PAA programs:https://www.paypal.com/donate?hosted_button_id=SDLTX8TBSZNXSsa bottom partThis podcast is made possible by the Family Disappeared Team:Anna Johnson- Editor/Contributor/Activist/Co-hostGlaze Gonzales- Podcast ManagerConnect with Lawrence Joss:Website: https://parentalalienationanonymous.com/Email- familydisappeared@gmail.com

In this bonus episode of Selective Ignorance, host Mandii B welcomes the “classmates” for a lively, interactive assembly, kicking off with a warm introduction and playful nod to community-driven conversation [00:00 Introduction to Selective Ignorance]. The episode quickly jumps into one of the most talked-about topics among women—traveling with friends—as Mandii and the group unpack the unspoken rules, expectations, and preparation involved in group trips, playfully coined the Black Girl Travel Checklist [00:58 Traveling with Friends: The Black Girl Travel Checklist]. From there, the classmates dive into moments of personal ignorance and growth, sharing candid stories that highlight how humor, vulnerability, and participation fuel real conversation [05:42 Ignorant Moments: Class Participation and Sharing]. The discussion shifts to the delicate balance between critique and disrespect in the entertainment industry, sparked by reactions to Denzel Washington’s latest film and the importance of giving honest feedback to even the most respected creatives [09:56 Critique in the Entertainment Industry: Denzel Washington's Latest Film]. This leads into a deeper exploration of the challenges of critiquing cultural icons like Beyoncé and J. Cole, and how fandom, loyalty, and cultural pressure often silence honest opinion [17:25 The Challenge of Critiquing Icons: Beyoncé and J. Cole]. Pop culture continues with a conversation about Ryan Murphy’s new show and Kim Kardashian’s acting performance, questioning talent, opportunity, and industry access [23:37 Ryan Murphy's New Show: Kim Kardashian's Acting Skills]. The group then debates movie date etiquette, unpacking expectations around the “perfect first date,” gender norms, and financial responsibility [29:21 Dating Etiquette: The Movie Date Debate]. The conversation takes an unexpected but fascinating turn into legal consequences of infidelity, discussing the rarely known law of Alienation of Affection—and whether someone can actually be sued for ruining a marriage [39:07 Suing for Infidelity: The Case of Alienation of Affection]. Mandii then pivots toward larger societal concerns, examining the crisis in healthcare education and how policy changes are reshaping student access, training quality, and future care [45:15 Healthcare Education Crisis: The Impact of Policy Changes], followed by a breakdown of Project 2025, exploring its political implications and potential impact on everyday Americans [48:41 Unpacking Project 2025].

The episode wraps with a spirited conversation on tipping culture, debating when tipping is appropriate, whether it's becoming an expectation versus a reward, and how service standards have evolved [01:16:58 Tipping Culture and Service Expectations]. “No Holes Barred: A Dual Manifesto Of Sexual Exploration And Power” w/ Tempest X!Sale Link Follow the host on Social MediaMandii B Instagram/X @fullcourtpumps Follow the guest on Social Media @jayjurden Follow the show on Social MediaInstagram @selectiveignorancepodTiktok @selective.ignoranceX/Twitter @selectiveig_podSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Owen Hatherley & Michael Hofmann on the European émigrés that made Britain In the 1930s, tens of thousands of central Europeans sought sanctuary from fascism in Britain. In The Alienation Effect (Allen Lane) acclaimed architectural historian Owen Hatherley draws on an immense cast of artists and intellectuals, including celebrated figures like Erno Goldfinger, forgotten luminaries like Ruth Glass, and a host of larger-than-life visionaries and charlatans, to argue that in the resulting clash between European modernism and British moderation, our imaginations were fundamentally realigned and remade for the better. Owen Hatherley was joined in conversation about his book by poet and translator Michael Hofmann.

From the smoky cafés of 1920s Paris to the curated feeds of Gen Z, this talk traces a century of growing alienation and the quiet ache beneath every age. We look at how today's neo-pagan culture offers counterfeit gods of sex, power, money, and self, and how events like the murder of Charlie Kirk jolted a generation into asking what is truly worth living and dying for. In the middle of this war between two altars (the pagan and Catholic), we explore why young adults are drawn to the beauty, ritual, and authority of the Catholic Church, and how we can accompany them into real transcendence, authentic community, and a life of courageous mission in Christ.  This talk was given at the Diocese of Arlington Catechist Conference on Nov. 15, 2025

North Carolina is one of 7 states that has an Alienation of Affection Law, which allows a spouse to sue a third party when they can prove they had a loving marriage until that third party maliciously seduced their spouse. The wronged party doesn’t even have to prove there was an extramarital sexual affair… it is solely about someone stealing a partner’s affection, that leads to the destruction of a marriage.

We are not what we think we are. Our self-image as natural individuated subjects is determined behind our backs: historically by political forces, cognitively by the language we use, and neurologically by sub-personal mechanisms, as revealed by scientific and philosophical analyses. Under contemporary capitalism, as the gap between this self-image and reality becomes an ever greater source of social and mental distress, these theoretical insights are potential dynamite. Shifting his explorations from the sonic to the social, amplifying alienation and playing with psychic noise, artist and performer Mattin finally lights the fuse. The noise is here to stay. Alienation is a constitutive part of subjectivity and an enabling condition for exploring social dissonance—the territory upon which we already find ourselves, the condition we inhabit today.

Mattin is an artist, musician and theorist working conceptually with noise and improvisation. Through his practice and writing, he explores performative forms of estrangement as a way to deal with structural alienation. Mattin has exhibited and toured worldwide.

We are not what we think we are. Our self-image as natural individuated subjects is determined behind our backs: historically by political forces, cognitively by the language we use, and neurologically by sub-personal mechanisms, as revealed by scientific and philosophical analyses.

Gen Con 2025 was a blast and we saw a lot and played a lot of great games! I talk with Caleb, Tom, Aaron, Elle, and David about their experiences this year. I've included links below for games we discuss. RPPR News: I just posted my sixth original PDF, Alienation

What happens when an analyst conducts interviews—and I am not speaking here about interviewing other analysts as we do at NBiP, but rather what happens when an analyst does field research, and researches one of the eternal subjects of our field which is to say love and also, to borrow from Gregorio Kohon, its' vicissitudes? Locating within himself demeaning feelings towards an other—and the setting is a psych ward in India, and in an India that continues to rework its having been partitioned, having partitioned itself, and the other is a Muslim other in a Hindu majority nation—the author, Ashis Roy, wants to know more about what he calls his “communal mind”, a mind that developed in a country where, “Muslims know the Hindu myths but the reverse is not true,” so a mind that was afforded an instant other to deposit its unwanted contents into. His book, Intimacy in Alienation: A Psychoanalytic Study of Hindu-Muslim Relationships, explicates intimacy and asymmetry, as it delves into cross-religious desire, and in this case the forbidden desire of Hindus for Muslims, and Muslims for Hindus, which, when acknowledged, threatens social, familial, and cultural mores, and also the prerogatives of the state. Who are these people, Roy asks, who take such a step, which is a step that can lead to a kind of social death, akin, in the American context from which I write, to the experience of gay people who come out and are brutally shorn of their families, communities, and sometimes their lives? The power of desire, a power beyond us, in excess of ourselves always, can propel us to this vertiginous place. Perhaps, and only perhaps, it can also push us to live in ways that reject socially and politically enforced liminality as well. One starts to imagine these couples, engaged ongoingly by Roy, as healing a malignant split that beats at the heart of contemporary Indian life. Roy's thinking draws from the myriad psychoanalytic theories of Kakar, Green, Erikson, Altman, Bollas, and Phillips, (among others), all of them kings of our trade, many of their names never uttered in the same breath—(I am thinking especially of Green and Altman.) Fascinatingly, he also orients himself to his material by engaging the work of two historians (queens of their own domains) and they are the American, Joan Wallach Scott and rather especially (or that is my read) the Italian scholar Luisa Passerini. Like Roy, Passerini delved deeply into her own milieu, and like Roy she performed interviews with her peers who participated in what is commonly called the anni interessante in Italy (known for its red brigades, the murder of Aldo Moro, wildcat strikes in the auto industry alongside acts of student solidarity) all of which happened while she was in Africa. Her book, Autobiography of a Generation (1983), reads as an effort to be in touch with something fundamental about her homeland that she missed. My impression is that Intimacy in Alienation serves a similar purpose for Roy, who realizes that there is a world nearby that remained visually and affectively sidelined. Both wanted to see what had previously been, for various reasons, scotomized. Learn more about your ad choices.
