Originally published on April 2 of 2024, we bring you a story by Morgan Sutton that embodies everything a story should embody. The story uses no extra words; the narrator looks inside herself; and the story matters to the broader world. The story is so important because it explains a very dangerous and ugly assumption that is often made about women who've been raped. Morgan does it by examining her own situation and her own assumptions. There's no preaching. And there's nothing dogmatic. This is what writing and storytelling is all about. Getting to the truth. Morgan workshopped this story at Writing Class Radio's annual writing boot camp in Key Largo. She did the work to make the story great. Morgan Sutton is a hospice nurse who lives in Austin, Texas with her husband.Writing Class Radio is hosted by Allison Langer and Andrea Askowitz. Audio production by Matt Cundill, Evan Surminski, Chloe Emond-Lane, and Aiden Glassey at the Sound Off Media Company.

The importance of this podcast includes the critical component of continuing to amplify the voices of those who've survived the unimaginable. This week, the show marks a significant milestone—Episode 150—and it's only fitting that I have a truly monumental guest, Whitney Vergés. Whitney's story is one of incredible courage as she bravely shares her experience of being drugged and raped. But what makes her journey even more powerful is the context surrounding her assault. Whitney, who has worked in the adult entertainment industry as both a stripper and the manager of the strip club, is the first sex worker to share her story on the Sexual Assault Survivor Stories platform. The stigma and victim-blaming that individuals in the sex industry face often silence them, but Whitney's decision to break that silence speaks volumes. She chose to be here today, sharing her truth, and I am deeply honored to give her the platform to do so. Whitney's hesitation in coming forward was rooted in a fear of judgment, but hearing the stories of others on the SASS Podcast helped her find the courage to step up and speak out. She reflects on how often those in the sex industry are marginalized, making their voices harder to hear. Her raw and vulnerable testimony is a game-changer; one that will resonate with many listeners who may have felt isolated or silenced by societal shame. It's a reminder of the profound impact of sharing our stories—of breaking down barriers, shattering stigmas, and embracing the power of truth. All of this is vitally important to normalizing the conversation, to which Whitney is dedicated! My deepest thanks go to Whitney for her incredible bravery. Not only is she sharing her own pain, but she is also channeling that pain into a mission to help others. Whitney is working towards opening a shelter home for victims and survivors of sexual assault, providing a safe space for healing. Her resilience and commitment to helping others heal is truly inspiring, and I have no doubt that her story will leave a lasting imprint on all who listen. Thank you, Whitney, for your strength, your heart, and your willingness to be here today.

Ariel Sorensen reached deep inside herself to muster the strength and fortitude to reach out to me to find out if she could share her gripping and harrowing tale of her rape and sexual assault during what was supposed to be the trip of a lifetime to South Africa. Ariel and her male companion, strangers in a foreign land, were offered nightly accommodations by an elderly couple they had just met. The couple's generous offer seemed harmless at first, but as Ariel recounts, it was part of a carefully orchestrated manipulation. Things got worse when she was invited to stay in a separate bedroom from her friend, a decision that, in hindsight, proved to be catastrophic. Ariel's is a story of trust betrayed: revealing the devastating reality that grooming tactics aren't just used on children—they can be directed at adults as well.          Ariel's narrative goes beyond the details of the assault itself, exposing us to her emotional aftermath and the challenges of navigating a foreign justice system. She bravely describes the complexities she faced while reporting the crime in South Africa, highlighting the systemic obstacles that many survivors encounter when seeking justice abroad. One of the most impressive elements of Ariel's experience is that she advocated for herself in ways she herself wasn't even aware she could!  And Ariels is another prime example of why I continually emphasize the need for trauma-informed care in these situations, as well as the vital role of support systems in helping survivors begin their healing journey. Throughout this episode, Ariel emphasizes how her story can help others who may have suffered similar experiences. She also shares her thoughts on the importance of raising awareness about grooming tactics and the ways perpetrators manipulate their victims. As Ariel explains, understanding these behaviors is crucial in preventing future assaults and empowering individuals to recognize when they are being manipulated. Plus, her insights into the South African criminal justice system and the healing process offer invaluable lessons not only for survivors but for anyone looking to better understand the complexities of sexual violence. This is an episode full of learning points…start to finish! Ariel's bravery in sharing this painful chapter of her life speaks volumes about the resilience of survivors. Her story shines a light on the emotional, legal, and societal challenges that come with surviving sexual assault, while offering hope and healing to those who have faced similar struggles. I am super-impressed with Ariel's compelling and courageous account; it's prime example of from her journey toward justice and healing, and she joins me in the mission of normalizing the conversation. And she's an awesome example of someone who found out what can happen when you're a victim or survivor of rape or sexual assault and you reach out to me for a platform to tell your story.

The egg industry is calling for better labelling of products using imported eggs, and for all imports of eggs and egg products to be checked at the border. The British Egg Industry Council says there's been a rise in imports and they're concerned that eggs contaminated with salmonella are not being picked up. Plums used to be a big crop for British farms back in the 1960s, but over the decades the amount grown here has fallen dramatically. However, one farm in Kent believes the tide is turning. WB Chambers near Maidstone say new varieties, new orchards and new technology are extending the growing season and providing consumers with British plums for longer.As part of our week-long focus on harvest, we see how this year's oil seed rape crop has fared. We visit a farmer in East Yorkshire who used a drone to help seal the pods with a special sealant a couple of months ago, to stop them falling off too early. He says it's saved a lot of crop - and money.Presenter = Anna Hill Producer = Rebecca Rooney

When you mention Japanese War crimes in World War Two, you'll often get different responses from different generations. The oldest among us will talk about the Bataan Death March. Younger people, coming of age in the 1990s, will mention the Rape of Nanking or the comfort women forced into service by the Japanese army. Occasionally, someone will mention biological warfare. Frank Jacob has offered a valuable service by surveying Japanese mistreatment of civilians and soldiers comprehensively. His book, Japanese War Crimes during World War II: Atrocity and the Psychology of Collective Violence (Praeger, 2018), is short and doesn't treat any event or issue in depth. But he offers a lucid and thorough evaluation of the literature and nuggets of additional insight. And he frames it with a thoughtful attempt to explain the conduct about which he is writing. If you're looking for a deep dive into a particular topic, you're not the audience Jacob had in mind. But this is a good place to come to grips with the broad picture of Japanese misconduct during the war.

Órla O'Donnell, Legal Affairs Correspondent, reports ahead of the Court of Appeal decision on the Conor McGregor case

Conor McGregor has lost his challenge against a High Court jury's finding that he raped Nikita Hand in a Dublin penthouse. Ms Hand sued the former MMA fighter for damages for raping her at the Beacon Hotel on December 9, 2018. Last November, a jury of eight women and four men found that McGregor (37) civilly liable for the assault and awarded her almost €250,000 in damages. Speaking outside the High Court, Ms Hand thanked her legal team, the rape crisis centre, and three judges of the appeal court. ‘I'm deeply grateful for everyone who supported me, believed in me and stood by my side during this long and painful journey. “This appeal has retraumatised me over and over again. “Being forced to relive it, what has happened has had a huge impact on me.” See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

148. Dave Markel: Reflections and Impacts This week, since there's not guest again, I want to take a moment to reflect on the growth and impact of the podcast. I am deeply grateful for the unwavering support from all my listeners, whose commitment has fueled the show's success and exponential growth. Whether long-time listeners or relatively new to the show, your passion and dedication are what have made SASS what it is today. I also want to emphasize the importance of normalizing the conversation around rape and sexual assault. By creating a safe space for survivors to share their stories, SASS works to remove the stigma and silence that too often surrounds sexual violence. This episode highlights the vital role that all of you play in breaking down barriers, supporting healing journeys, and fostering an environment where these difficult topics can be openly discussed without shame or judgment. Finally, I discuss the significance of becoming trauma-informed, not just for professionals, but for everyone. Understanding the effects of trauma—whether in the workplace, at home, or in our communities—is essential in offering empathy and support. As always, I want to encourage you to continue sharing the podcast to help spread awareness, normalize these crucial conversations, and ensure no survivor feels alone.

Patricia Douglas was a young dancer and an extra working in Hollywood during its so-called Golden Era when she was tricked into attending a party Tinseltown's most powerful studio, MGM, was throwing for the salesmen who were making it rich on May 5th, 1937. At this party, she was dragged into the parking lot and brutally raped by one on of those salesmen. The studio would bury her assault... but decades later her truth would finally come to light and help lead to much needed change in the movie industry.  For Merch and everything else Bad Magic related, head to: https://www.badmagicproductions.com

This week on The Roseanne Barr Podcast, Roseanne welcomes Audra Lynn—model, survivor, and spiritual whistleblower—for one of the most explosive interviews yet.  For the first time, Audra tells the world: "I was raped by Jeffrey Epstein."  But this isn't just a story about one predator—it's about the ancient, blood-soaked power structure that created him.   Audra exposes the satanic elite network behind Epstein, a lineage that traces all the way back to the bloodline of Cain—the cursed descendants who've ruled empires, built cults, and orchestrated global control for generations.  From ritual abuse to political blackmail, from underground temples to the halls of power, this is not conspiracy—it's the spiritual war playing out in real time.  They want your soul, your children, and your silence.  But Audra isn't staying silent. And neither is Roseanne.   AUDRA LYNN https://www.facebook.com/audralynnplaymate   https://www.instagram.com/srt_playmate ------------------------------------------------ Sponsored By: Republic Life Now Access your life insurance before you need it.

147. A Repeat of Episode 43: Cashaye Barrera—An Episode Worth Hearing Again!   Sometimes life throws us a curve ball when we least expect it, and it changes the trajectory of the path we were on. That's what happened this week when a guest who was scheduled to record with me had some unexpected events thwart our scheduled appointment and we weren't able to record. So, I made the decision to do something I have yet to do on this podcast, and that is to repeat a past episode. It didn't take me anytime at all to decide which one: you are about to hear Episode 43 again: my adopted daughter, Cashaye Barrera. Cashaye's extreme courage and strength in telling her survivor story is evident and powerful, and I'm honored to be able to have you listen to this again. Please take the time to not only listen to this repeat episode, but also to re-read the notes I wrote for Episode 43: This week, I made a special request to my daughter, Cashaye Barrera, to be a guest with me on this show. I was pretty sure she would agree to do this…and she did. My confidence in her response was due in part to me knowing how passionate she is about getting justice for herself…in every legal, non-violent way possible. And because I know what a tenacious and strong personality she is when she's fighting for herself and for those she loves and cares for…like, her family. But mostly because she is passionate about helping others. Especially others that are suffering in ways she can relate to…like other victims and survivors of rape and sexual assault. Cashaye's sexual assault case wasn't taken seriously when it was reported to law enforcement. Even though she was able to present physical evidence that she was raped, the agency handling the case, along with the prosecutor's office, was much more interested in giving the benefit of the doubt to the suspect than to Cashaye; to believe his untruthful explanation for the existence of his semen on Cashaye's clothing, rather than her report of incestuous and forceful rape. This is, for the most part, across most of this country, sadly, standard operating procedure. Part of this standard, this common response among law enforcement and prosecutors, is the systemic disbelief of victims. And another huge component to the problem is blaming the victim. And while Cashaye is one of the fortunate ones that did not end up being arrested herself for false reporting, she was certainly not believed, and was told by law enforcement that she should listen to and obey the very person that raped her, and that person's wife  who knew the sexual assault was occurring, who were Cashaye's foster parents. Why is this process of disbelief, blaming, shaming, of victims, and the closure of rape and sexual assault cases without the perpetrators of these crimes being so much as confrontationally questioned about the report, let alone thoroughly investigated, so rampant, so systemic? Because…it's easier to not believe reports of sexual assault and rape than it is to believe these reports. It's easier because our human brains don't like to face the malevolence, the discomfort, the taboo, the ugliness, the messiness, the vulgarness…of rape. And because some men and women who investigate rape and sexual assault cases don't like the idea that what they do, sexually, in their own personal sex lives, could very well be construed as rape or sexual assault. It's easier to disbelieve victims; to blame victims; to shame victims, and to get them to recant their report. If you don't believe me, watch the independent film, Victim/Suspect, streaming on Netflix. Then read Cry Rape: The True Story of One Woman's Quest for Justice, by Bill Lueders. Then read Missoula: Rape and the Justice System in a College Town. And read Know My Name, by Chanel Miller Then read Dr. David Lisak's research on The Undetected Rapist. Then watch The Invisible War documentary about the prevalence of rape in the military by Kirby Dick, Amy Ziering, and Tanner King Barklow. Things need to change…big time.

Please listen with care.On this episode of Virtual Sentiments, host Kristen Collins speaks with Susan Brison, author of Aftermath: Violence and the Remaking of a Self (Princeton University Press, 2002; 20th Anniversary Edition, 2023). In this conversation, Brison reflects on trauma, gendered violence, and the limits of traditional philosophy. She shares the story of her own rape, the trial that followed, and how it shaped her research and philosophy. Their conversation explores the feminist claim that “the personal is political,” emphasizing how trauma disrupts trust and identity, and how recovery requires relational support. Brison also critiques the punitive criminal justice system, advocating for restorative approaches that promote healing over retribution.Dr. Susan Brison is Susan and James Wright Professor of Computation and Just Communities and Professor of Philosophy at Dartmouth College where she is also Director of the Susan and James Wright Center for the Study of Computation and Just Communities.Read more work from Kristen Collins.Show Notes:APA Studies's special issue on Susan's work, "Feminism and Philosophy"Judith Herman's Trauma and Recovery: The Aftermath of Violence—From Domestic Abuse to Political TerrorNancy Sherman's Afterwar: Healing the Moral Wounds of Our SoldiersJonathan Shay's Achilles in Vietnam: Combat Trauma and the Undoing of CharacterRobin Dembroff's "Real Men on Top"Linda Martin Alcoff's Rape and ResistanceMary Ann Franks's "Democratic Surveillance"If you like the show, please subscribe, leave a 5-star review, and tell others about the show!
