Podcasts about psychopaths

On this week's episode of The Lo Life, Lo sits down with psychologist and author Joe Nucci for an eye-opening conversation that cuts through the noise of viral “therapy talk” on social media. Nucci's new book Psychobabble: Viral Mental Health Myths & the Truths to Set You Free tackles some of the most misunderstood psychological buzzwords dominating TikTok and Instagram—from gaslighting and love bombing to narcissism, psychopathy, and beyond. Together, Lo and Nucci pull back the curtain on the labels we throw around too casually and reveal what the science actually says. The conversation goes deeper into relationships, toxic patterns, and the difference between traits and true diagnoses, offering clarity for anyone who's ever wondered where internet myths end and real mental health begins. They also discuss the process of finding a therapist who's right for you—why it's like dating, the questions you should ask, and how to build a relationship that leads to genuine healing. Thoughtful, relatable, and packed with insights, this episode will change the way you see mental health—and maybe even the way you see yourself.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

SEASON 4 EPISODE 20: COUNTDOWN WITH KEITH OLBERMANN A-Block (1:45) SPECIAL COMMENT: “The President is unhinged. He is Unwell. The President is Unwell.” Representative Madeleine Dean of Pennsylvania with perhaps the most important eleven words in the past decade, perhaps the most important eleven words in the history of this country, CERTAINLY the most important eleven words for the FUTURE of this country. “The President is Unwell.” We have at LEAST one – probably TWO – presidential health crises in full flower at the same time: And near as I can tell, only Representative Dean is talking about it (and directly to Speaker Mike Johnson, in what was not intended to be a public conversation) along with Governor Pritzker of Illinois, whose diagnosis was SIXTEEN words long and just as important. Quote: "There is something genuinely wrong with this man, and the 25th Amendment ought to be invoked." The two crises are obvious: at his insane speech to the Generals Tuesday, Trump sounded as if his charger had been left unplugged for three weeks, his voice husky, indistinct, words slurred. And what he DID say made next to no sense. Pritzker suggests dementia which could explain both the rapidly declining mental capacity AND the audible collapse AND why Trump was invisible yesterday and had to send Vance to ride Day One of the government shutdown Trump orchestrated. It would all ALSO explain that missing week around Labor Day and the cabinet meeting – the LAST televised cabinet meeting – in which his Departmental Slaves shoveled twice as much laudatory BS as usual, as if it were a going-away roast for Trump. Maybe it was. “The President is unwell.” CAN TRUMP PASS A SANITY TEST? I have grown old talking about Trump's sanity. I first did it publicly in June, 2016, and a month later Vanity Fair published my article "Can Trump Pass A Sanity Test?" As I wrote then: short answer? Probably not. This is a layman using professional tools: an actual kind of "triage" test used by working psychology professionals to assess if somebody is injured, tripping, or psychopathic. I had an active therapist walk through the examination and assign the points per topic. It's an important time to review what we knew - or should have known - nine long years ago. Because he was unwell then, too. B-Block (35:23) PART TWO OF "CAN TRUMP PASS A SANITY TEST": We conclude the annotated 2016 piece on Trump's already provable mental distress with the disturbing reality that takes us back to where we began with Madeleine Dean's lament: "The president is unwell."

Episode DescriptionWhen you think about 1980s killers, names like Bundy, Ramirez, and Dahmer come to mind. But what about the women? In this episode of Terror Talk: Killer Minds and Creepy Stuff, Shannon and [co-host's name] pull back the curtain on female psychopaths of the decade — both the ones who made headlines and the ones who terrified us on screen.We move through the decade year by year, uncovering shocking real crimes:Christine Falling, the teenage babysitter turned child killer.Genene Jones, the Texas nurse who murdered infants in her care.Diane Downs, whose narcissism led her to shoot her own children.Dorothea Puente, the “sweet old lady” running a boarding house of death.Griselda Blanco, the ruthless “Cocaine Godmother.”And the emergence of Aileen Wuornos, one of history's most infamous female serial killers.At the same time, Hollywood and international horror were building their own female psychopath archetypes:The Fan (1981) and the dangers of obsession.Bloody Birthday and Butcher, Baker, Nightmare Maker tearing apart family and innocence.Fatal Attraction (1987), where Glenn Close redefined the “woman scorned.”And finally Misery (1990), with Kathy Bates's Oscar-winning portrayal of Annie Wilkes.Together, we explore why these women — real and fictional — terrified the world. Why did betrayal of trust by mothers, nurses, and lovers cut deeper than stranger-danger? And what did these portrayals reveal about shifting gender roles, cultural anxieties, and the way society views dangerous women?This episode is part history lesson, part cultural analysis, and part psychological deep dive into why the 1980s cemented the female psychopath as both a real and reel icon.✨ Listen now and step into a decade where lipstick, motherhood, and obsession became weapons just as lethal as knives and guns.

When you're trauma bonded, wanting them isn't about love—it's about relief. The relief of the fight being over. The relief of feeling seen again, even for a moment. In this episode, I break down why your body can know they're toxic and still long for their presence, and why that doesn't make you weak—it makes you human.We'll explore how your nervous system and brain chemistry keep you hooked, why reconciliation feels addictive, and the painful truth that craving relief isn't the same as craving love.Support the showJoin the Patreon: https://patreon.com/Youarenotcrazy *New Course*: Unhooked: Map the Cycle of Abuse in your Relationship Website: Emotional Abuse Coach and high-conflictdivorcecoaching.comInstagram: @emotionalabusecoachEmail: jessica@jessicaknightcoaching.com{Substack} Blog About Recovering from Abuse {E-Book} How to Break Up with a Narcissist{Course} Identify Signs of Abuse and Begin to Heal{Free Resource} Canned Responses for Engaging with an Abusive Partner

Knox recounts confronting prosecutor Giuliano Mignini and explores how certainty, incentive structures, and “alternate realities” turned her story into a sprawling international conspiracy. She parses the feedback loop between media and Italian justice, and why today's true-crime-savvy public might have questioned the case sooner. Also: the 21 point Gaza peace plan that hasn't been faxed to Hamas, and a Spiel on why the Comey indictment reads as impermissible lawfare, not a good-faith prosecution.

But sometimes, two broken personalities collide — and the result is catastrophic. In the launch episode of our new series, It Takes Two, Simon Ford and Jacques Morrell investigate Leonard Lake and Charles Ng, a sadistic duo who turned a remote cabin in California into a chamber of horrors.We explore their warped backgrounds, the psychology of killer partnerships, and the devastating human toll of their crimes. What happens when one man's fantasies meet another's lack of restraint? Together, Lake and Ng became far deadlier than either would have been alone.

In this week's Frankly, Nate reflects on intraspecies predation (ours) and the impact psychopathic actors have on the mean and median of human behavior – in the past all the way up to our modern society. Human evolution was shaped by both cooperative, pro-social behavior and a competitive, predatory approach for survival – resulting in a balanced distribution for most of humanity's existence.   But, as agriculture, surplus, and other factors propelled more hierarchical social structure, aggregate human behavior and culture has slowly shifted over time to express more psychopathic traits. This thread of behavior continues to run through our modern society, where a relatively small (but disproportionately powerful) segment of the human population can pull societal behavior towards anti-social and individualistic values – even if the majority of people still inherently operate from a place of reciprocity. Why might our modern society provide a more fruitful breeding ground for psychopathy than past societies did? What do chickens and eggs have to do with psychopathy and the economic superorganism? And ultimately, what strategies could we begin to think about in order to shift mean and median human behavior back towards a more cooperative, prosocial middle?

Sexual coercion is one of the most misunderstood and silenced forms of abuse. It's not seduction. It's not miscommunication. It's pressure, guilt, manipulation, and punishment used to get sex when you've already said no, shown hesitation, or felt unsafe. It's not about intimacy—it's about power and control.This is a bonus episode from Unhooked—my private podcast series for survivors breaking free from emotional abuse.In this episode, I break down how sexual coercion works, the subtle (and not‑so‑subtle) ways it shows up, and how it maps directly into the cycle of abuse. You'll learn:What sexual coercion actually is—and what it isn'tExamples of how it sounds and why survivors often can't name it in the momentHow coercion weaves through the tension‑building, incident, reconciliation, and calm stages of the abuse cycleThe emotional and body‑based trauma responses it creates, including dissociation and loss of sexual agencyWhy “yes” isn't real consent if it's given out of fear, exhaustion, guilt, or to avoid conflictIf you've experienced this but never had the words for it, this episode will help you see it, name it, and understand that it is abuse.This bonus episode is part of Unhooked: Mapping the Cycle of Abuse—a private podcast where we break down each phase of the abuse cycle, explore trauma bonding in depth, and help you reclaim your clarity, your nervous system, and your sense of self.Support the showJoin the Patreon: https://patreon.com/Youarenotcrazy *New Course*: Unhooked: Map the Cycle of Abuse in your Relationship Website: Emotional Abuse Coach and high-conflictdivorcecoaching.comInstagram: @emotionalabusecoachEmail: jessica@jessicaknightcoaching.com{Substack} Blog About Recovering from Abuse {E-Book} How to Break Up with a Narcissist{Course} Identify Signs of Abuse and Begin to Heal{Free Resource} Canned Responses for Engaging with an Abusive Partner

They're kind again… so does that mean they've changed? In this episode, we unpack why the “nice” version is part of the abuse cycle — and how to tell the difference between real change and a calculated reset.One of the most confusing parts of an emotionally abusive relationship is when the cruelty suddenly stops — and the “nice” version of the person shows up. Maybe they're warmer, calmer, even kind for a while. You start to wonder… are they finally changing? Was I wrong about the abuse?In this episode, I break down why that “nice” version isn't separate from the abuse — it's part of the cycle. We'll explore how kindness can be used as a tactic, why it often appears when you're pulling away or setting boundaries, and how intermittent reinforcement keeps you hooked in the trauma bond.Support the showJoin the Patreon: https://patreon.com/Youarenotcrazy *New Course*: Unhooked: Map the Cycle of Abuse in your Relationship Website: Emotional Abuse Coach and high-conflictdivorcecoaching.comInstagram: @emotionalabusecoachEmail: jessica@jessicaknightcoaching.com{Substack} Blog About Recovering from Abuse {E-Book} How to Break Up with a Narcissist{Course} Identify Signs of Abuse and Begin to Heal{Free Resource} Canned Responses for Engaging with an Abusive Partner

This episode revealed to the world that Tiff has a history of dating psychopaths. Fortunately, it seems to be a phase she's now moved through but nonetheless, our resident Rain Man (Gillespo) was able to provide Tiff with some insights into (1) why she may have done that and (2) how to avoid it happening in the future. We also covered a range of weird and interesting, but unrelated topics. You know when you get a bunch of random things from the fridge, throw them all together and make a meal that nobody has ever made before?

n this raw and validating conversation, fitness expert and former pro athlete Holly Rilinger shares her first public telling of the emotional abuse she endured inside a long-term relationship that looked perfect on the outside.Holly opens up about how the relationship began with admiration and love bombing, then slowly eroded her confidence, identity, and sense of self. From subtle criticisms about her appearance to the complete absence of repair after conflict, she found herself living in constant fatigue, self-doubt, and silence — all while running a successful fitness business and motivating others to feel strong in their own skin.The discussion unpacks the patterns of narcissistic abuse, the manufactured discard, the loss of identity, and the physical toll of living in fight-or-flight for years. Holly reflects on the moment a friend finally witnessed the behavior, how she began waking up to the truth, and the small ways she's reclaiming her body, voice, and power in the seven months since leaving.If you've ever questioned your reality in a relationship that looked “fine” to the outside world but felt like slow erasure on the inside, Holly's story will remind you that you're not crazy — and that healing is possible.You can follow Holly here: https://www.theliftedmethodcoaching.com/Support the showJoin the Patreon: https://patreon.com/Youarenotcrazy *New Course*: Unhooked: Map the Cycle of Abuse in your Relationship Website: Emotional Abuse Coach and high-conflictdivorcecoaching.comInstagram: @emotionalabusecoachEmail: jessica@jessicaknightcoaching.com{Substack} Blog About Recovering from Abuse {E-Book} How to Break Up with a Narcissist{Course} Identify Signs of Abuse and Begin to Heal{Free Resource} Canned Responses for Engaging with an Abusive Partner

In this episode of Building Better Developers with AI, Rob Broadhead and Michael Meloche revisit one of their most memorable past discussions: “Unpacking ‘Psychopaths' Scenarios and Tough Coding Challenges.” That earlier conversation explored the “opposite of the happy path”—those frustrating moments where unclear requirements, unrealistic expectations, or hidden bugs make coding feel nearly impossible. Now, with the help of AI prompts and fresh anecdotes, the hosts take a lighthearted but practical look at how developers can survive tough coding challenges and even grow stronger through them. Revisiting Past Tough Coding Challenges The original “psychopath” metaphor described the bizarre, unpredictable situations developers encounter—like half-baked requirements or strange user paths no one expected. In this revisit, Rob and Michael highlight how tough coding challenges remain timeless. Unclear specs still lead to messy solutions and wasted effort. Requirements written on napkins, “urgent” tickets with no prioritization, or unrealistic interview questions all qualify as classic tough coding challenges that force developers to adapt. Common Tough Coding Challenges Developers Face The hosts share a humorous “starter pack” of scenarios every developer will recognize: Legacy code packed with seven levels of nested if statements. Interview questions that ask you to “write a compiler on a whiteboard.” A vague spec that says only: “Make it user-friendly.” A “small change” that balloons into a complete rewrite. Though exaggerated, these challenges highlight a real issue: projects succeed when expectations are realistic and communication is consistent. Developer War Stories Rob and Michael also revisit their personal developer war stories: The Semicolon Bug – Days lost to a missing character when linters weren't in place. The “Everything is Urgent” Boss – Prioritization chaos that left the team paralyzed. Merge Conflicts – Overwritten code when developers skipped repositories and unit tests. Teams that ignore coding standards and repositories will keep reliving the same tough coding challenges.c Coping Strategies for Tough Coding Challenges Surviving the madness takes both discipline and humor. The hosts share practical coping strategies, such as: Rubber Duck Debugging – Explaining the problem out loud often sparks insights. Snacks and Caffeine – Reward yourself for solving a challenge. Take Breaks – Walking away can reveal solutions faster than brute force coding. Michael also warns against the “ship it and patch later” mentality, pointing to unstable game launches and OS rollouts as cautionary tales. How Tough Coding Challenges Build Superpowers The conversation closes on a positive note: tough coding challenges don't just test developers, they strengthen them. Debugging Ninjas spot subtle errors instantly. Documentation Detectives can decipher legacy systems with ease. Interview Survivors gain confidence from handling curveball puzzles. Michael encourages developers to document their solutions and share them with the community. Not only does this help others, but it also creates a reference point for your future self when the same challenge reappears. Final Takeaway Revisiting the original “Psychopaths” episode with a fresh perspective shows that while technology evolves, tough coding challenges never go away. What changes is how developers respond. With clear requirements, strong processes, and healthy coping strategies, chaos can be transformed into growth—and even a little humor along the way.
