Podcasts about Consent

When Paris Hilton publicly revealed the abuse she says she endured at Provo Canyon School, it ignited a movement—and now, that school is closed. Journalist Maia Szalavitz joins Vanessa and Natalie to talk about how she exposed the industry's hidden world in her landmark book, Help at Any Cost: How the Troubled-Teen Industry Cons Parents and Hurts Kids. We talk to Maia about what Paris's story changed, what it didn't, and why the fight for accountability is far from over.

Colin McGinn joins to discuss sexual ethics on campus. Drawing on thought experiments and his own experiences in academia, McGinn argues that universities too often conflate harassment with consensual relationships while overstating the role of power imbalances.

WelcomeHello, lovelies. It's Juliette here.If you feel nothing when your partner touches you, you are not cold and there is nothing wrong with you. This week Andrew and Tristan Tate were arrested in Miami on rape and trafficking charges, which they deny, and which are not proven in court.The Epstein files resurfaced. An old tape of a man bragging about grabbing women played again. While you read it, your body was not only reading headlines. It was gathering evidence about how safe it is to be a woman with a body. So it did the intelligent thing. It braced. A braced body cannot receive, however gentle the hand.This episode is about what lives in the body when we watch this happen and the world shrugs, the manosphere machine that sells young men contempt as masculinity, the good men caught in the middle who genuinely want to help, and how a body that learned to brace comes back: through structure, on your terms, never by surprise.Try tonight (women). Warm, Weight, Where. One hand on your own forearm. Notice the warmth where they meet, let the hand land with its full weight, name the exact edge where you feel it. Ninety seconds of coming back inside a touch that is yours.Try this week (men). Before you touch her, ask, "Can I put my hand here?", and believe her answer.If it is not now, let that be completely fine. No cost, no atmosphere. Ask, believe, no cost. Do it ten times.Women → free masterclass Be Touched, Sunday 26 July, 7pm UK → https://feelfullyyou.com/be-touched-masterclassMen → free guide When She Goes Quiet → https://feelfullyyou.com/when-she-goes-quiet · then the Touch Reset Quiz → https://feelfullyyou.com/touch-reset-quiz

In an episode trying to speak for those looked down upon, details matter, and underlying context may be missing as we try to make sense of different decisions. There's a man's voice memo that's been going around TikTok, and there are a lot of thoughts on it. Then, a man's realisation after dating many single mums outlines the cons that dating them would/could carry. This leads down a path of FYIs that come with dating a single mum, as well as what to look for when going headfirst into that... >Give your feedback here

Andrew Tate built an online empire by selling young men a fantasy of wealth, dominance, and absolute power over women. But behind the cartoonish “pimp” persona, prosecutors allege something way darker: a sprawling human trafficking operation. New Yorker investigative reporter Heidi Blake joins Vanessa and Natalie to discuss her excellent article, “Andrew Tate's Empire of Abuse.”Since this conversation was recorded, the brothers have been arrested in Miami and are fighting extradition to the UK, where they now face dozens of criminal charges.

Almost everything you're already doing in bed is a kink. In this episode, Alex Gay, porn star, kink educator, and host of Kink Curious, joins us to break down what kink actually means (spoiler: it's way broader than you think), why almost everyone is "kinky" without realizing it, and how shame keeps so many of us stuck. We get into the difference between a kink and a fetish, consent and communication in kink spaces, why aftercare matters just as much as the main event, and how to start exploring safely if you're kink-curious but don't know where to begin. ✨ Special Offers: ✨Splash Blanket! | Use code Jordan15ProDx Health | Use JordanDnelle to save 25%Thank you to our Sponsors: Splash Blanket, Prodx, PhexxJump to the Good Stuff:06:52 – What is a kink, really?07:14 – Kink vs. fetish14:27 – Why most people are "kinky" without knowing it28:00 – Biggest misconception about kink community31:55 – How to start exploring a kink34:11 – Building confidence outside the bedroom37:17 – Consent in kink scenes41:00 – What kink taught Alex about communication and vulnerability44:27– Aftercare 101Pleasure Highlights:Kink is broader than most people thinkConfidence in kink starts outside the bedroom.Consent looks different and more intentional in kink.Aftercare isn't extra, it's part of the experience.Shame is the real barrier, not the kink itself.Connect with Alexxx:Instagram @HeyAlexGayTikTok @HeyAlexGayFacebook @HeyAlexGayYouTube @HeyAlexGayPodcast: Kink CuriousEnhance your self-awareness by acknowledging and understanding your behavior patterns, and foster a deeper connection with your inner self.

Controversy has swirled for years over litigation in which a plaintiff sues a friendly government defendant, and the case concludes with a favorable settlement. Critics argue that this practice creates a non-adversarial process that allows aligned litigants and agencies to shape policy and reward political allies outside the normal rulemaking and appropriations procedures. Defenders respond that these settlements generally resolve legitimate claims while conserving judicial resources and taxpayer dollars. The debate intensified during the Obama administration as the practice proliferated, particularly in environmental consent decrees.The controversy received renewed attention after the district court’s July 13 ruling in Trump v. IRS, concerning the settlement of President Trump's lawsuit against the IRS over the leak of his tax returns. The court concluded that the parties were never genuinely adverse and that there was therefore no Article III case or controversy. Its order went further, however. Reasoning that the suit was brought for an improper purpose, the court imposed sanctions on the plaintiffs and their counsel and directed that the order be transmitted to the bar authorities of senior DOJ officials.Join us for a discussion of Trump v. IRS, and the broader legal and policy concerns surrounding sue-and-settle litigation.Featuring:Anne Austin, Senior Advisor, Burke Law GroupZhonette M. Brown, General Counsel, Senior Litigation Counsel, New Civil Liberties AllianceAbhishek Kambli, Partner, Holtzman Vogel Baran Torchinsky & Josefiak PLLC(Moderator) John Shu, Attorney and Legal Commentator

In this episode of *Pediatric Perspectives*, I'm joined by Peter McCullough, M.D. — one of the world's most published cardiologists, an epidemiologist, and the lead author of what may be the most comprehensive scientific document on autism spectrum disorder ever produced. His McCullough Foundation report, *Determinants of Autism Spectrum Disorder*, spans 52 pages with 308 references and extensive supplemental material. Dr. McCullough entered this arena not from a place of advocacy but from an epidemiologic one: when the numbers stopped making sense, he followed the data.

Just qualified — so why does it feel like the learning is only just beginning? What should you actually focus on in year one: the flawless dentistry on your feed, or something far less glamorous? How do you tell a patient their nerve might die — without it sounding like YOUR fault? And when a patient says “just do whatever you think” — what do you say back? This is the conversation every new dentist needs and every experienced one recognises. Our guest is Dr Emma Hutchison — a former dental nurse who trained at the University of Glasgow, and has been the face of the Protrusive Students series across her studies. We recorded in her final weeks of dental school, right on the threshold of practice, and talked through everything the syllabus skips: the safe-beginner mindset, what to learn (and what to ignore) early on, how to protect your standards under time pressure, which cases to take on, and how to talk to patients about risk, cost and consent so the words actually land. If you're fresh out, this one hits hard. If you're an oldie, it's a trip down memory lane — and a reminder of how far you've come. https://youtu.be/gjJiDVP4w-4 Watch PDP276 on YouTube Protrusive Dental Pearl: Predict the Complication Before It Happens A communication pearl for every deep restoration. When a filling sits close to the nerve — a big cavity, a crack — name the likely complication before it happens. Show the patient the images, then tell them what to expect: a twinge to cold or hot that can linger a few days, so keep taking painkillers and keep the area clean. And warn them what a red flag looks like: a severe throbbing ache keeping them up at night, or pain out of the blue without eating or drinking, means the nerve is struggling and they should call you. Do this and, if the complication ever arrives, you look like the expert who called it — not someone something went wrong for. Skip it and reception fields the panicked calls instead. It reassures the patient, lowers your callback rate, and quietly reduces your risk profile. Obvious, easy to forget, and worth saying out loud every single time. What You'll Take From This Episode The safe-beginner mindset — why qualifying is the driving licence, not the destination, and how the happiest dentists keep getting 1% better. Just-in-time learning — study for the cases actually in your diary, not the obscure pathology you won't meet for years. Get good before you get fast — master the bread and butter, protect a little extra time early, and reflect on every procedure. Clever hacks vs cutting corners — how to tell the difference, and why every shortcut quietly rewires the habit. Consent that works — getting patients to own the problem, and giving a clear recommendation instead of a fifteen-item menu.

On behalf of the whole Protruserati: we're proud of you, Emma.

AGD Subject Code: 770 Self-Improvement  Aim & Learning Outcomes Aim: To give early-career dentists a practical framework for the transition from dental school to independent practice — how to keep developing, how to protect clinical standards under time pressure, and how to communicate risk and treatment options as part of valid consent. Learning Outcomes — by the end of this episode, dentists will be able to: Apply a “just-in-time” approach to continuing development, prioritising the competencies relevant to the cases in front of them over isolated advanced techniques. Differentiate time-saving efficiencies from quality-compromising shortcuts, and describe strategies to maintain clinical standards early in practice. Apply structured communication techniques to explain procedural risk, establish a patient's treatment goal, and make a clear, defensible recommendation as part of valid consent.

Maria Bryan is the Partnership Marketing Manager at Donorbox, which offers "Robust online and on-location fundraising with meaningful donor relationship management, so your mission thrives." Maria joins host Steve Boland to talk about her work with trauma-informed storytelling. She begins with the idea to first, protect and support people we work with in telling stories. The lines can get fuzzy with the big video at the donor gala, and it is important to practice a "Hippocratic oath" of ensuring we do no further harm when talking about trauma. We can share impact stories without harming either the people who's story your telling or the person who may be listening for the first time. Maria cautions us to slow down and take time to tell those stories. Consent forms (with expiration dates!) are good and important, but conversations about the impact of sharing is important. Trauma responses can include fight, flight, freeze, or fawn. A slow consent process includes asking what is the goal of the person telling their story. Each person has their own agency (listen for the conversation about agency versus "empowered""). Trauma comes in many different forms, including vicarious trauma. Simple content warnings, and scaling content warnings are helpful ways to move forward. Maria is the host of the When Bearing Witness podcast, where listeners can hear more about her work.

Our laws still don't clearly define what consent is. Instead, they focus on what consent is not.

Set against the backdrop of one of the world's toughest child protection laws, Brishbhanu Baruah explores how India's landmark Protection of Children from Sexual Offences Act (Pocso) is reshaping the lives of young people. Introduced after the 2012 Delhi gang rape, Pocso has been praised for exposing hidden abuse, trafficking, and child marriage. But as reported cases surge into the tens of thousands each year, a growing number involve teenagers in consensual relationships who now face investigation, trial, and the possibility of long prison terms. Through testimony from lawyers, campaigners, families, and young people themselves, he examines how a law designed to protect children can also criminalise young couples, strain families, and devastate education and career prospects.

Advocates calling for a change in New Zealand's sexual consent laws say they're disappointed reforms are taking so long. Campaigner, Layba Zubairis said the issue's been unnecessarily politicised. National announced it would change consent laws if re-elected in November. Justice spokesperson Paul Goldsmith spoke to Ingrid Hipkiss.

If re-elected, National says it will modernise New Zealand's sexual consent laws to make it clear consent requires an explicit yes, rather than the absence of no. Currently, the Crimes Act gives examples of what consent is not, without defining what it is. Advocate Layba Zubair spoke to Ingrid Hipkiss.

National's justice spokesperson says new consent laws in other jurisdictions haven't materially changed conviction rates. The party's announced if re-elected, it'll ensure consent has to be actively given, meaning there must be a "yes" rather than the absence of a "no". It says it brings us in line with jurisdictions like the UK and parts of Australia. National's Justice Spokesperson Paul Goldsmith told Mike Hosking that it won't fundamentally change the high test for a conviction. He says it sends a clear signal, society wants people to be very clear about consent. LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In this episode, I am sharing some thoughts that have been on my mind: from parenting in the age of social media to why protecting children online should be a priority.I talk about influencer culture, the importance of children's consent and privacy, and what our actions teach kids when they do NOT match the values we say we have. I also discuss the reality of online predators, why I believe parents need to be more aware of the content they share, and why these conversations matter now more than ever.I also share my personal perspective on some public discussions surrounding Taylor Frankie Paul and Dakota, including their actions that left me with questions.To lighten things up, I catch you up on life lately, share a few funny stories, and explain why I have been watching a lot less TV.Whether you are a parent, single and childless, enjoy conversations about social media and influencer culture, or just want to hang out for an honest chat, I hope you will join me! Fan Mail HereSupport the show

If you normally listen to this podcast with young children, maybe tell them we didn't upload this week, or give them an old episode and test their memory!Okay we'll level with you, this episode has given us a bit of anxiety. Having a moderately successful podcast can sometimes lead to the erroneous thought 'people like listening to us talk about climbing, so maybe people like listening to us talk about other stuff too'. That has often proven to be very wrong, however we have said many times that we think climbers are more interesting than climbing so we feel this episode is true to that. Lillian is a keen climber but not one that cares too much about progressing through the grades. She has written a book entitled 'Fingerbanging for climber boys' which is about exactly what it sounds like it's about, but it's also about the value of communication and the importance of consent. This stuff is important, and we do believe talking about it and breaking a few taboos is a worthwhile endeavour. That said, we do understand that some of you will feel this isn't the right place, or time, or that we're not the right people to be having this conversation, and we understand and respect that critique but on this occasion we elected to go with our gut  (and the wise guidance of our Patroon community) and do it anyway. Love, Sam and AidanIf you would like to check out Lillian's book : https://www.fingerbangingforclimberboys.com/If you still like this podcast and would like to support us please consider checking out our Patreon page: https://www.patreon.com/user?u=70353823Support the show

Join us LIVE AT FIVE (PT) on YouTube for the watch party every Wednesday: https://www.youtube.com/@birdsandbeesdontfck Ariel Zucker is a producer, director, and writer from Atlanta, Georgia where sex education was taught through abstinence, fear-based messaging, and wildly unhelpful visuals that left her and her peers confused about their bodies and sexuality. In this episode we talk about growing up with abstinence-based sex education, the confusion and shame that comes from fear-driven messaging, how sex education shapes our early experiences, and what it actually means to unlearn all of that as an adult. We get into working in production and storytelling, intimacy coordination and creating safer sets, navigating desire and communication, kink and lifestyle communities, and how humor, curiosity, and real conversations can create better sex education than anything we learned in school.

Nina Alvarez joins Dr. Sandie Morgan to unpack a question raised after The New York Times published images from Figueroa Street: was legal consent enough to prevent harm? Together they explore the ethical duty of care journalists owe survivors, the lasting life of images, and why covering trafficking responsibly takes more than good intentions.Chapters(00:00) - Introduction: welcoming journalist Nina Alvarez (03:46) - What "ethical duty of care" means for journalists (06:00) - Consent, trauma, and the limits of a release form (16:42) - Why "rescue" is the wrong word for trafficking recovery (22:14) - What editors and organizations should ask before publishing (28:44) - Power, images, and protecting sources long after publication (38:03) - Media narratives, public misunderstanding, and what needs to change (43:14) - Closing thoughts and how to get involved About Nina AlvarezNina Alvarez is a journalist, documentarian, video photographer, and the CBS Assistant Professor of International Journalism at Columbia Journalism School. She has spent more than twenty-five years reporting breaking news, feature stories, radio reports, broadcast segments, and long-form documentaries around the world.Alvarez began her career at ABC News, working on the documentary series Turning Point before covering the southeast U.S. and Latin America from ABC's Miami Bureau and helping establish the network's Mexico City Bureau in 1997. Her work has aired on World News Tonight with Peter Jennings, Good Morning America, Nightline, and 20/20, earning three national Emmy Awards.Since 2001, she has reported and produced for Univision, NBC, CNN, NPR, MTV News, and Al Jazeera, with work spanning the Middle East, Africa, Central Asia, Latin America, and the Caribbean. She produced, directed, and photographed Very Young Girls, a Showtime documentary following New York City girls who had been sexually exploited and trafficked domestically, and was a producer on the Oscar-nominated Which Way Home.Key Points• Nina Alvarez explains that the ethical duty of care means weighing the lasting impact a story will have on the person in it, since a published story is permanent and the subject may not fully grasp what that means when they agree to participate.• Consent is not the same as a signed release form; Alvarez describes consent as an ongoing process that journalists have to revisit before, during, and after a story is published.• Alvarez points out that turning 18 makes someone legally able to consent, but it doesn't erase the effects of years of trauma, so journalists still have to weigh whether a survivor's "yes" is solid.• Morgan and Alvarez agree that "rescue" is the wrong frame for trafficking recovery, since most survivors leave and return to their situations multiple times before they're fully out.• Alvarez explains that rescue-centered narratives draw more funding and legislative attention toward policing, while recovery-centered approaches that give survivors housing and health resources get less support.• Alvarez says editors should be asking why minors' first names and identifying details were included in a story at all, and whether a survivor understood that their words to police would end up published nationally.• Alvarez encourages organizations to set ground rules with journalists, including reviewing the story and images in advance, and warns that survivors who depend on an organization for access may feel pressure to say yes.• Alvarez reflects that Very Young Girls, made in 2007, didn't anticipate how permanently images would circulate online, and the women in that documentary now say they can never fully escape those images.Resources• Figueroa Street and the Ethical Duty of Care (Columbia Journalism Review)• Very Young Girls (documentary)• GEMS (Girls Educational and Mentoring Services)• Humanitarian Initiative Bridges• Columbia Journalism School

This week, we are revisiting a previously aired episode.Jess and Scott dive deep into the science of impulse control in children, explaining why little ones struggle to control their impulses and how parents can effectively support this critical developmental process. They explore brain development across different age groups—from toddlers who are "completely run by impulses" to teens experiencing a rush of emotions while their logical brain struggles to catch up. Listeners will gain practical, science-backed approaches to help navigate impulsive behaviours, understand the "why" behind children's actions, and learn how to balance setting boundaries with maintaining the warm connection that makes children most teachable.This episode was originally released on June 2, 2025.Get 10% OFF parenting courses and kids' printable activities at Nurtured First using the code ROBOTUNICORN.We'd love to hear from you!

In this episode of the California Sports Lawyer Podcast, host Jeremy Evans examines why consent is becoming one of the most valuable commercial assets in entertainment, media, and sports. As technology continues transforming how content is created, distributed, licensed, and consumed, consent has evolved beyond a legal requirement into a strategic business advantage that increasingly shapes commercial relationships across the industry. Jeremy discusses how artificial intelligence, intellectual property, contracts, publicity rights, name, image, and likeness (NIL), licensing, and digital content are redefining the importance of transparency, trust, and permission. The episode explores how businesses, creators, athletes, and rightsholders can better protect their interests while navigating rapidly evolving technologies and business models. As entertainment, media, sports, business, technology, and law continue converging, consent is becoming the foundation upon which modern content businesses are built. Understanding how contracts, technology, and trust intersect provides valuable insight into why the organizations creating the greatest long-term value will be those that earn, negotiate, protect, and clearly define consent.

I'm joined today by Dr. Ben Lynch, DNM — one of the most knowledgeable experts I know on methylation pathways, biochemistry, and how prenatal nutrition shapes a child's lifelong health. Dr. Lynch is the author of *[Dirty Genes](https://www.amazon.com/Dirty-Genes-Breakthrough-Program-Optimize/dp/0062698141)* and founder of [Seeking Health](https://www.seekinghealth.com/), and over the years he has become one of the physicians I turn to most for insight on these critical early developmental windows. In this episode, we go deep on a topic that doesn't get nearly enough attention in conventional obstetrics: the difference between synthetic folic acid and the natural folate forms that developing babies actually need — and what happens when we get it wrong.
