In this chilling episode of Stuttering in Silence, Matt and Gavin take us back to Chicago in 1982 — when ordinary bottles of Tylenol turned into weapons of mass fear. Seven people died in just days, and America's most trusted pain reliever suddenly became the face of terror.Together, the hosts unpack how Johnson & Johnson went from “America's family company” to the center of a national panic, the shocking recall that rewrote corporate crisis management forever, and the haunting theories about who really laced those capsules with cyanide. From the bearded man caught on tape, to James Lewis's extortion letter, to whispers of an inside job — the Tylenol murders remain one of the most disturbing unsolved cases in U.S. history.This is more than a true crime story — it's the reason you crack open a tamper-proof seal every time you open a bottle today.#TrueCrime #TylenolMurders #UnsolvedMystery #Podcast #StutteringInSilence #JohnsonAndJohnson #ColdCase

Dr. Dillon Pruett has lived both sides of stuttering: the anxious kid rehearsing every word and the scientist searching DNA for answers. His groundbreaking research, recently published in Nature Genetics, uncovered 57 genetic hotspots tied to stuttering -- proof that our voices carry a biological story as complex as any human trait. In our conversation, Dillon shares how his personal journey shaped his path into research, what the findings reveal about stuttering's overlap with traits like musicality and sleep, and why the goal isn't to “fix” stuttering but to demystify it. At its heart, this episode is about turning stigma into science and science back into compassion.You can read the study here. -----

In July of 1972, 17-year-old Dolores Della Penna stepped off a Philadelphia trolley just one mile from home—and vanished. Eleven days later, her dismembered body was found scattered across the remote pine forests of New Jersey. Her head was never recovered.What followed was a decades-long investigation involving drug dealers, biker gangs, and secret informants. Witnesses claimed to know what happened—some even described the brutal killing in chilling detail. And yet, no one was ever charged.In this episode of Stuttering in Silence, Matt and Gavin dive deep into one of Pennsylvania's most haunting cold cases. Who really killed Dolores? Why was she targeted? And why, after more than 50 years, does justice still feel so far away?We tell the story like a true-crime novel—layer by layer—with hard facts, disturbing details, and the devastating silence that still surrounds this case today.

Feared for decades, blamed for every unexplained death from the Colorado River to Searchlight, Queho became the ultimate boogeyman of the desert.But was he truly a cold-blooded killer, or a scapegoat shaped by racism, fear, and myth? And what happened after he disappeared into the Mojave's shadows—only to be discovered decades later as a mummified corpse surrounded by dynamite, stolen weapons, and a deputy's badge?This chilling story only gets stranger: his remains were paraded through Las Vegas, put on display in a replica cave, and literally celebrated in a parade.

In today's episode of Psych Talk I chat with Sam Gennuso, LMFT about stuttering and its connection with authenticity. Sam defines stuttering for listening and shares her personal story as a person who stutters. Sam discusses how stuttering can be a complex trauma and it it impacts one's self-esteem and self-concept. Further, she describes how stuttering relates to authenticity and vulnerability, and how that connection with authenticity has directed much of her clinical work. Sam describes various ways that individuals cope with stuttering, as well as some interventions or supports people who stutter can receive. Further, Sam disusses how people can own their experiences when they have a difference that may have historically caused shame, low self-esteem, or other challenges.Connect with Sam:Website: www.samgtherapy.comIG: ⁠@samgennusoTherapy IG: @therapywithsamgAlchemizing the Anxiety GroupResources mentioned in this episode:Stuttering is an Act of LoveAmerican Institute for StutteringNational Stuttering AssociationFriends Who StutterConnect with Me:Follow me on IG ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@jessicaleighphd⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Follow the podcast on IG ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@psych.talk.podcast⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Follow me on TikTok ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@jessicaleighphd⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Follow me on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Youtube⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Follow me on Threads ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@jessicaleighphd⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Welcome to Group Therapy Podcast⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Join my Facebook community: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Grow Through What You Go Through⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Ways to Work With Me:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Mind Over Matter⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠LGBTQ+ Affirming Masterclass⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Be a guest on my podcast⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Resources:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Anti-Racism Resources⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠LGBTQ+ Affirming Resources⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠The Helping Professional's Guide to Boundary Setting⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Intro/Outro Music⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Life of Riley⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ by Kevin MacLeod⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Music License⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠

Description:What happens when a speech-language pathologist also stutters? Some Stutter, luh! Welcomes Robert Kurliand, a trilingual SLP, neuroscience enthusiast and a person who stutters, who brings a mix of clinical expertise and personal insight on STUTTERING! Join us to know more about Robert's refreshing perspective on stuttering treatment, emphasizing authentic communication, personalized therapy, and stuttering appreciation rather than just acceptance!Notes:In this thoughtful conversation, Robert talks about therapy that should focus on helping people who stutter become effective communicators, not necessarily fluent speakers. He values authentic communication and stuttering appreciation, suggesting PWS should celebrate the personal growth that comes from the journey. He also offers deep insight into the real-life emotional and psychological challenges faced by people who stutter. Robert emphasizes that PWS shouldn't let their stutter define or limit their career choices. Robert believes the field of speech therapy is broad, so deep specialization in stuttering is rare but needed. He also highlights the emotional aspect of stuttering—fear, shame, avoidance—that is often more impactful than the physical symptoms and SLPs need better tools, frameworks, and support to address these emotional layers effectively.As the conversation follows, we see a deeper reflection on acceptance vs. appreciation, and how changing the language we use to describe our stuttering journey can lead to greater authenticity and peace. While "acceptance" is often framed as the ultimate goal in therapy, the word "appreciation," is more empowering and less pressure-filled.Many people who stutter develop ingrained habits of avoiding difficult words, situations, or speaking altogether. He points to the concept of "avoiding avoidance" that encourage confronting these strategies only when they interfere with saying something important or meaningful. Because when core identity or values are at stake, avoidance can cost more than the stutter itself. He also has powerful reflections on self-disclosure, authenticity, and why owning our stutter can bring us closer to others.Mary Wood Episode: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3sgj6jrZaMA#Stuttering #SpeechTherapy #Neurodiversity #SomeStutterLuh #SLP #MentalHealth #Communication #fluency #acceptance #stutteringacceptance #stutteringawareness #stutteringappreciation #authenticity

What does it mean to keep showing up when life changes your body, your voice, your sense of self? Dr. Phil Schneider has spent a lifetime helping people find their voice. But when he was diagnosed with Parkinson's, he found himself on the other side of the therapeutic relationship, learning how to live with a tremor, navigate shame, and reclaim agency in a body that no longer behaved the way it used to. In this episode, Uri sits down with his father, mentor, master clinician, and co-founder of Schneider Speech, for one of the most personal and moving conversations on the podcast to date. Together, they explore Phil's decades of work helping people find their voice, and how his understanding of communication deepened through his own health journey. What helped him move forward wasn't hiding. It was naming the tremor, talking about it with family, and choosing connection over shame. Opening up was the moment he began reclaiming agency. Resilience didn't come from isolation. It came from letting people in. This episode is full of warmth, story, and hard-earned wisdom on voice, vulnerability, and what it really means to be present with another human being. In this episode on connection and resilience, you'll discover: How a nonverbal girl found her voice on stage and transformed Phil's career What Parkinson's taught Phil about stuttering, shame, and self-acceptance Why communication is about connection, not correction How being seen is more healing than being “fixed” The hidden cost of hiding, and the freedom of naming what's hard How moments of presence can shape the course of a life And more invaluable insights TIMESTAMPS 01:10 Meet Dr. Phil Schneider: A Legacy in Communication 03:03 How His Career in Speech Therapy Began 08:54 Learning from a Student: A First Encounter with Stuttering 13:38 The Power of Belief: How Gladys Found Her Voice 17:09 Connecting Through Communication 26:22 Teaching, Mentorship, and Shaping Future Therapists 29:29 Why Emotions Matter in the Therapy Room 30:39 Transformative Voice Therapy 34:35 Shame, Parkinson's, and the Cost of Hiding 36:54 Openness, Vulnerability, and Reclaiming Agency 48:29 The Heart of Therapy: Growth Through Honest Connection 53:57 What Parents and Young Adults Need to Hear 57:06 Final Thoughts and Reflections ABOUT THE GUEST Phil Schneider, Ed.D.

QUOTES “ You don't really know what a person needs or wants, and the only thing you can do is really listen and try to care and try to understand.” - Dr. Phil Schneider “ I realized this sense of being diminished by being out of control of your body in front of other people, and even without other people, was intrinsically shaming. It didn't require any other people.” - Dr. Phil Schneider “ Challenge can be an invitation to growth, and it can lead to intimacy, to being really open with people.” - Dr. Phil Schneider “ So long as there's life and there's breath, there's possibility.” - Dr. Phil Schneider “ Parenting is scary because it'll always feel like it's your fault” - Dr. Phil Schneider ABOUT THE HOST Uri Schneider, M.A. CCC -SLP is co-founder and leader at Schneider Speech; creator and host of Transcending Stuttering; and former faculty at the University of California, Riverside School of Medicine.

Hey Friends~  Speech confidence is important for adults and kids.   Whether you are speaking in public or saying your name in front of a class, we all want to speak with confidence and certainly that what we intend to say is what will come out.  Fluency is one area of speech and language development. Many, many kids stutter when they are rapidly expanding their vocabulary and language skills.  Many parents come to me and ask - what do I do?  Does my child stutter?   Today's guest discusses fluency issues from a personal perspective.   So whether you have a toddler with a developmental stutter  or a teen who has been diagnosed with a fluency issue, this episode is for you!    Always cheering you on!  Dinalynn CONTACT the Host, Dinalynn:  hello@thelanguageofplay.com   ABOUT THE GUEST:   Jason Heffler is an author whose stories help young readers overcome speech disorders and fears around speaking. Drawing from his own childhood experiences growing up with and getting bullied for a stutter, he writes uplifting tales that build confidence in kids who lack self-esteem. His book 'Tongue Tied' is a resource to illustrate how speech issues do not define children. Doctors, parents and people who stutter have connected with the book's unique message: that they do not need to be "fixed." Instead of chasing a cure, they've shared how liberating it is to embrace the truth that their voice—exactly as it is—can carry them through a life filled with all the same possibilities as others.
