    The Cornell Seven Case | We're Asking The Wrong Questions - 1341

    The Cornell Seven case raises questions beyond the allegations surrounding an October 2024 fraternity encounter, including what consent means when alcohol, drugs and incomplete memories enter the picture. Chalene Johnson explores why Jane Doe's reported text messages have fueled competing narratives, and what screenshots can leave unanswered about sexual consent. For parents and grandparents of Gen Z and Gen Alpha, Chalene examines research from the Children's Commissioner for England and Common Sense Media about pornography exposure, sexual expectations and body image. School Chromebooks, Snapchat and AI pornography bring another question into focus: how much do adults really know about the sex education kids are getting online? Topics discussed: Cornell University, coercion, incapacitation, sexual trauma, parental controls, school devices, Patreon.   Join Chalene on Patreon, her private podcast for 50% off Your first month for the Month of October Use code CHALENE 👉 chalene.com/more   🚨Questions Chalene Wants Your Thoughts on: How quick are you to believe what you see or hear on Social media?

    The F-Factor Diet Feud | The Shocking End

    F Factor Diet founder Tanya Zuckerbrot faced more than 4,500 Instagram posts in 75 days, but how did a fiber powder become the center of an influencer war? Chalene Johnson revisits the controversy involving Emily Gellis, anonymous health claims, and a weight loss brand Chalene once bought on eBay. From the appeal of fiber and protein to The New York Times reporting and years of defamation litigation, Chalene follows the F Factor story beyond the screenshots. The Instagram battle raises a sticky question about influencer accountability: when does sharing someone's story become spreading something nobody has verified?

    Pete Davidson told Variety he has a problem with female content creators making $40 million, and Chalene Johnson has a few things to explain to him.

Jasmine Guy returns as Whitley Gilbert in Netflix's A Different World revival, and the internet goes straight for her face. Chalene names the thing almost nobody talks about: symbolic annihilation. Plus, why she's nearly stopped typing, and what happens when an ADHD brain calls an AI assistant.

    10 Must Watch Documentaries + Honest Money Talk & Miami Gym Life

    The Widower on Netflix follows a man with six marriages, four dead wives, and two death penalty trials, and it's just one of ten documentaries Chalene Johnson says you can't miss this weekend. Hidden gems include Wildcat on Prime Video, The Remarkable Life of Ibelin, Kill. Bury. Print. on Peacock, and A Killer Story on HBO Max. Then a raw conversation from Patreon about money mindset. Why does calling yourself wealthy feel so uncomfortable? Is "more money, more problems" actually true? Plus, why are so many men in their 40s at the gym suddenly tan and ripped? Chalene has a theory involving Melanotan, HGH, and peptides. And why building muscle after a hamstring avulsion is so hard at this age. Topics discussed: The Widower, Wildcat, The Remarkable Life of Ibelin, World of Warcraft, Kill. Bury. Print., Thailand cave rescue, I Survived a Serial Killer, The Swan: Behind the Mirror, Should I Marry a Murderer?, The AI Doc, A Killer Story, confirmation bias, money mindset, money memories, self-sabotage, wealth, PhaseIt, Melanotan, HGH, peptides, tesamorelin, ipamorelin, ketamine, hamstring avulsion, building muscle   Join Chalene on Patreon, her private podcast for 50% off for the Month of October Use code CHALENE 👉 chalene.com/more   🚨Questions Chalene Wants Your Thoughts on: Have you seen any of these Documentaries or what others do you recommend?  Does talking about money make you uncomfortable?
