    She Never Knew She Was Pregnant... Then She Was Convicted of Murder | Director Jessica Earnshaw on Baby Doe

    In 1993, a newborn baby was found abandoned along a rural Ohio road. More than 26 years later, advances in DNA genealogy led investigators to his mother—a devoted wife, mother of three, and active church member who insisted she never knew she was pregnant. Director Jessica Earnshaw joins Rachel to discuss her powerful new documentary, Baby Doe, executive produced by Sarah Paulson. Together, they explore the little-known psychological condition known as unperceived pregnancy, the murder trial that followed, and the evidence that continues to divide opinions about what really happened. They also discuss: The cold case that remained unsolved for decades How DNA genealogy changed the investigation The psychology behind unperceived pregnancy Why the jury never heard one critical detail The emotional impact the trial had on Gail's family Whether the criminal justice system is equipped to handle cases like this This is a conversation about justice, psychology, and the human stories that exist beyond the headlines. --- --- --- PLEASE LIKE, SHARE, SUBSCRIBE, AND GIVE US A 5-STAR REVIEW!: ratethispodcast.com/missunderstood Become a Patreon Member: https://www.patreon.com/c/MissUnderstoodwithRachelUchitel Shop Miss Understood Merch https://missumerch.com/ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Follow Rachel on Instagram!⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ https://www.instagram.com/racheluchitelnyc/?hl=en Follow Rachel on TikTok! https://www.tiktok.com/@itsracheluchitel Email us infomissunderstoodpodcast@gmail.com Executive Producer: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠George Carmona

    An Astrologer, a Trump Pentagon Official, an Affair... The Messiest Scandal I Never Asked to Be In

    Amy Tripp — the self-proclaimed “internet’s most notorious astrologer,” the woman who predicted the exact day Joe Biden would drop out — had a 15-month affair with a retired general who became a Senate-confirmed Trump Pentagon official. It ended in restraining orders, dueling lawsuits alleging harassment and extortion, and a scandal that dragged in people who wanted nothing to do with it — including me.. and HARRY DUBIN !!! I was subpoenaed as a witness for the prosecution. Then they quietly settled, and I thought this chapter was closed. It wasn’t. Out of the blue, she’s now posting wild accusations about me — claiming I “groomed” her, claiming I’m giving astrologers a bad name — despite the fact that I’ve had her blocked and haven’t mentioned her in a year. So fine. Let’s talk about it. In this Patreon-exclusive episode, I’m walking you through the whole saga: the dating app meeting, the Pentagon nomination, the affair described in those court filings, how I got pulled into it, the settlement — and why she’s decided to come after me now. Every receipt, every detail, and my honest reaction to the most laughable feud I’ve ever been dragged into. You think you know the story. You don’t. Only on Patreon.

    Inside the Las Vegas Massacre: The Survivors Who Refused to Give Up

    Rachel sits down with author and longtime entertainment journalist Mark Gray, who was covering the Route 91 Harvest Festival for Rolling Stone on October 1, 2017—never imagining he'd become part of one of the darkest nights in American history. Mark shares what it was like to be inside the festival as gunfire erupted, the lasting impact of surviving the deadliest mass shooting in modern U.S. history, and why he chose to write Las Vegas Massacre Connections. But this conversation isn't just about tragedy. It's about the extraordinary people who found purpose after unimaginable loss. From widows and first responders to survivors who transformed grief into acts of kindness, Mark reveals the remarkable stories that inspired his book and changed his perspective on resilience. Rachel also reflects on her own experiences with trauma, healing, and why moving forward doesn't always mean moving on. A powerful conversation about loss, hope, and the strength of the human spirit.

    Bahamas Diaries: The Good, The Bad & The Unexpected

    This week on Patreon, I'm checking in from the middle of the ocean as Dan and I make the crossing from Eleuthera to Bimini! I share stories from our two-and-a-half-week adventure through the Bahamas, including celebrating nearly six months of marriage, our stay with friends Lori and David, a night at the Nassau casino, and the scary moment we were forced to abandon our boat after getting caught in dangerous waves at Pink Sand Beach. But the best part of the trip? Meeting an unforgettable stray dog we named Wilson, who spent the afternoon with us and completely stole our hearts. I also give you a sneak peek at what's next on our journey—including swimming with nurse sharks and stingrays at Honeymoon Cay—and share some exciting updates about new Miss Understood merchandise coming soon after so many of you asked where to get our SPF shirts and hats.

    Sarah Edmondson never thought she'd join a cult.Like so many others, she was searching for personal growth, community, and purpose when she discovered NXIVM—a self-help organization that promised to help people become the best version of themselves.Instead, she found herself trapped inside one of the most notorious cults in modern history.In this eye-opening conversation, Sarah shares how she became involved with NXIVM, the red flags she noticed from the beginning, and why she ignored them. She opens up about the secret inner circle known as DOS, the shocking branding ritual that changed everything, and the moment she realized the organization was far more dangerous than she ever imagined.Rachel also shares her own experiences with coercive environments and explores the psychology behind manipulation, control, and why intelligent, successful people can find themselves caught in systems they never intended to join.This is more than a story about NXIVM.It's a conversation about trust, belonging, influence, and how easily our instincts can be overridden when the right person—or organization—knows exactly what we want to hear.
