The People Who Could Have Been: Ep 249, Nov 17, 2025

When your parent has a personality disorder, it affects you for life, but you can grow past the trauma if you let go of unrealistic hopes. We'll talk about how to re-frame your view of what's possible with abusive parents so you can get to the other side and find peace.  -Sadism has become mainstreamed and normalized. Two months after the assassination of Charlie Kirk, brand-name figures like Katie Couric are saying he had it coming. We'll watch her try to drag the thoroughly decent Senator John Fetterman down into the black pit where her heart should be. How would you feel if you were one of the most famous and richest women in America? If you're Michelle Obama, you'd feel hard done by indeed. Let's mock the former first lady as she does her Joan Crawford impression on the podcast circuit.  Did you like the show? Throw us some cash support! https://www.paypal.com/donate/?hosted...
