In this solo episode of Sexual Assault Survivor Stories (The SASS Podcast), host Dave Markel takes the mic alone to deliver a powerful, reflective, and informative monologue. While there's no guest again this week, the episode is anything but empty. Instead, it offers a thoughtful exploration of recent survivor stories making headlines, along with an in-depth look at survivor-led advocacy, cultural change, and resources for healing. Dave begins by spotlighting three courageous individuals: Alex Cooper, host of Call Her Daddy, who recently spoke out about the harassment she endured as a Division I athlete at Boston University; Tina Johnson, a Roy Moore accuser whose home was destroyed under suspicious circumstances after she came forward; and Nicky Campbell, a UK broadcaster whose disclosure of childhood abuse sparked a wave of similar testimonies from others silenced for decades. Each of these stories reveals the complex layers of trauma—ranging from institutional betrayal to physical triggers—and illustrates how public disclosures can ignite change and connection. The episode also honors the work of prominent survivor-advocates like Amanda Nguyen, founder of , who authored the Sexual Assault Survivors' Rights Act (passed unanimously by Congress in 2016). Nguyen's legislation has inspired over 67 similar laws across the U.S., while her global What Were You Wearing? exhibits continue to dismantle victim-blaming narratives in powerful and public ways. Also highlighted is Chanel Miller, formerly known as “Emily Doe” in the Brock Turner case, whose viral victim impact statement and bestselling memoir, Know My Name, redefined the survivor's voice in modern discourse. This episode closes by offering a collection of vital resources for survivors. If you or someone you know is in need of support, please reach out: · – 24/7 hotline: 800-656-HOPE · – Support specifically for male survivors · – Education and national hotline for harassment survivors · – Survivor-led legislative training and advocacy · Even without a traditional interview, this episode is filled with substance, reflection, and a deep commitment to the healing process. It's a powerful reminder that survivor stories don't stop when the mic does—and that advocacy can take many forms, including quiet reflection. This one is for every voice that hasn't been heard yet—and every listener who's ready to believe, support, and speak up.

Amanda Nguyen was aiming for the stars when she was accepted as a student at Harvard. She dreamed of becoming an astronaut. But in her senior year of college, she was raped. That propelled her into a public role as activist to change an infuriating gap in the law when it comes to rape survivors. “When I found out that my rape kit could be destroyed, untested, in six months — even if the statue of limitations was 15 years — I felt like that was against everything I was taught about the criminal justice system,” she told Kerri Miller on this week's Big Books and Bold Ideas. “It was [at] that moment that I decided I would actually be fighting the criminal justice system to reform it, because that was my definition of justice — to make sure that no one else would go through what I had to go through.” Nguyen's new memoir, “Saving Five,” is an inspiring, infuriating and ultimately hopeful testament to how one courageous woman fought the system and won. Guest:Amanda Nguyen is an astronaut for Blue Origin and an activist. Her new memoir is “Saving Five: A Memoir of Hope.” Subscribe to Big Books and Bold Ideas with Kerri Miller podcast on Apple Podcasts, Google Podcasts, RSS or anywhere you get your podcasts.Subscribe to the Thread newsletter for the latest book and author news and must-read recommendations.
This episode is a bit special. Julian is joined by one of his closest friends and former AWS colleagues, Huy Nguyen, to talk about something we often overlook in our careers and lives — the power of genuine human connection.In 2024, Huy made an unusual choice. He chose to get off the hamster wheel and take a career break to focus the entire year on being present with friends and community. From a Big Fat Greek wedding in Greece to conversations on balconies in Vietnam, his travels weren't about sightseeing. They were about belonging.Together, Huy and Julian unpack what it takes to build a strong community over time. Huy shares two timeless principles that guide his approach: show up and be curious. You don't need any plan or intention beyond these two things. Making time and being interested is enough. Messy is still effective if you show up with curiosity.They also dig into:The quiet epidemic of disconnection, and what to do about itWhy texting someone you haven't spoken to in years is never as weird as you thinkHow connection can be one of the most overlooked forms of self-careWhy moments of “I was just thinking about you” matter more than you realizeThis episode is warm, honest, and full of the kind of reflections that tend to stick with you. If you've been meaning to reconnect with someone — consider this your invitation.___Huy Nguyen LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/huywin/Saving Five (by Amanda Nguyen): https://pybitesbooks.com/books/dCMFEQAAQBAJ____

Your people are already using AI - but they might not be telling you about it, because they are worried you will think they are lazy, incompetent, or cheating! If they are afraid to tell you, that's YOUR fault - and a huge missed opportunity.https://swiy.co/go-ai-secretsSomebody recently asked me whether I thought there's too much hype about AI. I said yes, and he immediately jumped on that and said,“So you admit AI is all hype!”No! That's not what I said.Yes, there's too much hype about AI. But there's also real value you can get from AI. Both of those things can be right – there's no contradiction.It's like Katy Perry going into space and then claiming it as a milestone for feminism. That's hype! But equally, you could praise Amanda Nguyen – a real scientist, advocate for women's rights, and nominee for the Nobel Peace Prize – who also went on that same trip to space.Hype and value aren't necessarily contradictory.A lot of technology is over-hyped – especially something like AI, which pushes a lot of emotional buttons. It's also hyped by the American tech bros (or “broligarchs”) trying to talk up the value of AI to push up the value of their own companies.At the same time, millions of people are rolling up their sleeves, using AI, and getting real value from it.And this is true of your employees, too.Some recent research from Google and Ipsos found that in Australia, 74% of people – that's three out of four – are using AI at work. But some other research from Slack done at about the same time found 42% of them don't want to admit it to their manager!Why? You can guess at the reasons – the top three were:1. Their manager might think they are lazy2. Their manager might think they are incompetent3. Their manager might think they are cheatingSo what are YOU like as a leader?Are you open to AI? And more importantly, are you publicly open to it?Do you make it clear to your team they can use AI and should be using it? And are you giving them the tools, resources, environment, and guidelines on using it well?As you bring your people on the AI journey, it's more important than ever that you have clear, open, transparent conversations with them – about how they feel, what they want from AI, what they are already doing with it, and what worries them about it.AI is here. It's not going away. And you might already be in a lucky position with your people embracing it.Just be sure you support it, facilitate it, and help them go further with it.Download my worksheet here for some questions you can ask in these AI conversations with your team.Download the worksheet:https://swiy.co/go-ai-secrets Hosted on Acast.

We hear why Sarah is starting to get messages from people from "beyond the grave." We discuss animal sounds and how people around the world imitate animals through onomatopoeia, and why they're all different. We're mad about the ladies that went to space and acted like morons. We debate whether a man who got stolen casino chips should be able to cash them out. We get an update on the family who accidentally ended up with 52 octopuses, and it offers insight about the dangers of virality. We think aliens are stealing cows again and we don't understand why the town doesn't realize that's where their livestock went. Sarah thinks aliens also turn people into limestone though, so who knows. Plus, we learn what makes a good apology by analyzing the apologies on Real Housewives of Salt Lake City.Listen to more podcasts like this: https://wavepodcastnetwork.comJoin our Candy Club, shop our merch, sign-up for our free newsletter, & more by visiting The Brain Candy Podcast website: https://www.thebraincandypodcast.comConnect with us on social media:BCP Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/braincandypodcastSusie's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/susiemeisterSarah's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/imsarahriceBCP on X: https://www.x.com/braincandypodSponsors:This episode is sponsored by BetterHelp.

Blue Origin, Amazon founder Jeff Bezos's space tourism company, completed its latest spaceflight on Monday with a six-member all-female crew that included pop singer Katy Perry; CBS Mornings host Gayle King; and Lauren Sánchez, an author, TV host turned philanthropist and Bezos's fiancée.They were joined by activist Amanda Nguyen, ex-NASA engineer Aisha Bowe and film producer Kerianne Flynn on the suborbital flight, which lasted less than 11 minutes.King defended the Blue Origin mission in an interview with Entertainment Tonight on Tuesday after hearing criticism from people she knows, likes and “considers friends.”uaydarius Davis, a former 4-star recruit from Skyline High School in Dallas, Texas, was arrested and charged with burglary, domestic abuse and battery by strangulation, according to an arrest affidavit obtained by WFAA. Davis, who played college football for Jackson State University, Texas Southern University and most recently Southern University, according to his player bio on ESPN.com, was arrested in Tulsa, Okla., after video footage showed him choking a woman until she lost consciousness, according to the affidavit.Coachella ticket prices are around $599, to experience headliners like Lady Gaga, Travis Scott, and Post Malone. But how are fans paying that in this economy? Thanks to payment plans, those steep costs are becoming increasingly manageable. This year, around 60% of general admission ticket buyers used Coachella's in-house payment plan, which allowed fans to reserve tickets for as little as $49.99 upfront. The remaining balance was typically spread over three months—a model reshaping how festivals are marketed.
As the title suggests, it's been a bit of a month for pop culture. A crew consisting of Katy Perry, Gayle King, Lauren Sanchez, Aisha Bowe and Amanda Nguyen launched their astronautical careers and flew up to space where they duly conquered it in a respectable 11 minutes. We speak about other topics too! Things are getting a bit crazy in the white lotus eating world with Walton Goggins and Aimee Lou Wood confounding eagle eyed social media users with their feudal antics. What's your view on these topics?
Pope Francis passes away on the Easter Long Weekend. Pop Star Tate McRae faces backlash choosing to collaborate with country music star Morgan Wallen. Update on Australian election campaign and policies. Gayle King defends her trip to space with Katy Perry and Amanda Nguyen's story overlooked. Harvard goes head to head with the Trump administration.
This week in women: the UK Supreme Court declares that transwomen are not women, and women are lauded for putting on matching jumpsuits and being launched into space for a minute. In Britain, rapists can no longer pretend to be women; in the United States, we are asked to celebrate one of the oldest plays in the book—attractive woman attaches herself to wealthy man and attains power—and pretend that it represents female empowerment, while conveniently forgetting actually skilled women who have come before. Also: a hostage situation in Podcastistan: in which we explore the strange about-face of some prominent free speech warriors. Finally: the amazing institution that is Ralston College, whose themes are truth, freedom of inquiry, beauty, and fellowship.*****Our sponsors:Timeline: Accelerate the clearing of damaged mitochondria to improve strength and endurance: Go to http://www.timeline.com/darkhorse and use code darkhorse for 10% off your first order.ARMRA Colostrum is an ancient bioactive whole food that can strengthen your immune system.

6 Women took flight on Blue Origin's New Shepard rocket to the edge of space and a powder keg of hype and celebrity blew up the internet. Something about this all-female mission triggered people from all sides, with many jumping on the trend or not even realizing this billionare space race has been underway for a while (or even what the Karman line is). This episode lays out some basic facts about the mission and dedicates coverage of the two women with (IMO) the most powerful stories of the NS-31 crew, Aisha Bowe and Amanda Nguyen. These are chaotic times, with people chasing the algorithm - but that doesn't mean we can't share the powerful stories underneath the hype & celebrity of it all. The Space Conundrum is in full effect! So let's dig in to try and understand WHY and hear Aisha & Amanda's stories in their own voices.

Opening: • The crew (Jordan, Mr. Williams Comedy, and Jason) open with playful banter about comedy names and Jason's signature response: “I'm dynamite.” • They officially announce the Three's Comedy Tour, with stops in: • Atlanta (Stage Door Theater – May 29) • Ferryville, VA (Copper Fox Distillery – July 18–19) • Williamsburg, VA (Copper Fox Distillery – August 29–30) • Plans to add a June date are in the works. • The idea is to build synergy between the podcast and their stand-up acts, with potential for live podcast tapings in the future. Middle Segments: • 60 Hours in a Day? A long and hilarious debate unfolds about time, days, and Earth's rotation. Jonathan jokingly proposes that a true day should be 60 hours, sparking back-and-forth arguments about circadian rhythms, Mars time, and how arbitrary time systems really are. • Blue Origin Controversy: The group discusses Jeff Bezos' latest Blue Origin space flight, which featured an all-women crew (including Katy Perry and Gail King). While the mission was promoted as a feminist milestone, the hosts critique it as tone-deaf, self-serving PR, especially given the political climate and global instability. • Special note: They show empathy for Amanda Nguyen, a survivor-turned-activist whose spaceflight dream had a deeper meaning. • They slam the commercialism and celebrity inclusion, joking about a “Blue Orgy” and mocking the performative nature of the launch. • Festival Fails & Coachella Moments: • They react to d4vd's viral Coachella backflip fail and compare it to a stage dive gone wrong by Ginuwine and a now-infamous Miguel leg-drop. • They roast festival stunts, influencer culture, and the generational divide in handling on-stage mishaps. Final Segment: Bernie Sanders at Coachella • A surprise Coachella appearance by Bernie Sanders sparks heated (and hilarious) debate: • Jonathan argues that Bernie's message is necessary and urgent, even if it interrupts the party vibe. • Others point out the tension between escapism and activism—but agree that in this political moment, awareness is critical. • They close with sharp political commentary balanced with comedy and a reminder that the world can't be ignored just because we're having fun.

In 2013, Amanda Nguyen was a Harvard senior interested in pursuing a career at NASA or the CIA. But she says those plans were temporarily derailed when she was raped just a few months before graduation. Nguyen went on to become an advocate for survivors of sexual assault – and her advocacy resulted in federal legislation that changed the way law enforcement handles rape kits. Now, she's out with a book about her experience called Saving Five: A Memoir of Hope. In today's episode, Nguyen speaks with NPR's Ailsa Chang about navigating bureaucracy as a survivor, sharing her story with lawmakers, and her parents' response to her activism.To listen to Book of the Day sponsor-free and support NPR's book coverage, sign up for Book of the Day+ at plus.npr.org/bookofthedayLearn more about sponsor message choices: podcastchoices.com/adchoicesNPR Privacy Policy
In 2013, the trajectory of Amanda Nguyen's life was changed forever when she was raped at Harvard. Determined to not let her assault derail her goal of joining NASA after graduation, Nguyen opted for her rape kit to be filed under “Jane Doe.” But she was shocked to learn her choice to stay anonymous gave her only six months to take action before the state destroyed her kit, rendering any future legal action impossible. Nguyen knew then that she had two options: surrender to a law that effectively denied her justice, or fight for a change―not only for herself but for survivors everywhere. She comes to Commonwealth Club World Affairs to discuss the issues raised in her memoir of survival and hope, Saving Five, which braids the story of Nguyen's activism―which resulted in Congress's unanimous passage of the Sexual Assault Survivors' Rights Act in 2016―with a second imagined adventure, of Nguyen's younger selves as they―at ages 5, 15, 22, and 30―navigate through dramatic incarnations of the emotional stages of her path toward healing, not only from her rape but from the violent turmoil of her childhood. Nguyen did go on to work at NASA and other scientific institutions, and in 2024, private space company Blue Origin announced that Nguyen would be the first Vietnamese woman to fly into space on one of its upcoming missions. Additionally, Nguyen ignited the Stop Asian Hate movement and continues to help others through Rise, her civil rights accelerator. For her groundbreaking contributions she was nominated for the 2019 Nobel Peace Prize and is a 2022 Time Woman of the Year. Our program will begin with an introduction by Rowena Chiu, a former assistant to Harvey Weinstein. In 1998, she was sexually assaulted by him at the Venice Film Festival, and was coerced into signing a non-disclosure agreement (NDA), which silenced her for over 20 years. In 2017, a New York Times journalist came to her home and doorstepped her husband of over a decade, revealing information about the assault and NDA. Rowena was featured in the subsequent Timesinvestigation, but she insisted on remaining anonymous. In 2019, she finally broke her story on the NBC "Today" Show, live in front of 3 million viewers. Rowena's story has featured in both the book and the movie, She Said. She has given over 1,000 media interviews across four continents, for international news outlets such as: ABC, BBC, CBS, and NBC. She has testified at the House of Commons, the Massachusetts State House, and attended the State of the Union. She is writing a memoir, a novel, and a screenplay, in addition to working as a global #MeToo activist, advocating for the rights of those who are oppressed or voiceless, in churches, schools, universities and workplaces around the world.

We learn about what is causing the backlog and about the short amount of time that many assault survivors have before their kits are destroyed.
