This week on Disaffected, we tackle the sickening aftermath of Austin Metcalf's murder—a 17-year-old stabbed to death by Karmelo Anthony over a seat at a track meet. Anthony's family shamelessly spins the story, raising half a million dollars as fake victims of racism, while Metcalf's father inexplicably downplays race and rushes to forgive. Host Joshua Slocum cuts through the bullshit, exposing a culture poisoned by identity politics, entitlement, and moral cowardice.

Four years ago, I woke from a spell that I had been under since childhood.  After decades of torment, I recognized my mother for what she truly was: a personality-disordered abuser.  She wasn't the victim she had always claimed to be.  Then I saw the same behavior and abuse tactics being adopted and applauded by the social justice left.

A New Plateau: Episode 219, April 21, 2025

The cases of Jason Arday, Karmelo Anthony, and Linsday Clancy form one magic mirror that shows the state of our souls. We're sympathetic to liars and murderers, not to their victims. The American character is corrupt, and it's long past time we admitted it.

Funnies return with a review of a Vermont restaurant that treats grown ups like toddlers, and toddlers like jaded streetwalkers. Come visit Miss Rachel's Taqueria and Play-Skool.

Character Corrupted: Episode 289, Aug. 30, 2026

In the early 70s everyone recognized that serial killer fans the Manson Girls were insane. But today thousands of Clancy Girls are supporting a mother who strangled her three children, and it's apparently just. . . normal. 

The Crappy Childhood Fairy, Anna Runkle, joins us to talk about her suit against the California Board of Psychology. Anna is a coach who helps child abuse survivors, and the state wants to shut her mouth and put her out of business. 

Karmelo Anthony's defense team tries for another bite at the apple, but whoops! Karmelo's past texts threatening violence along with his girlfriend's accusation of stalking are making it harder.

Post-Birth: Ep 288, 8.23.26

-Jason Arday, plagiarist extraordinaire who resigned from his Cambridge professorship after his plagiarism and lies were exposed, has killed himself. But he's not a victim, he's a perpetrator. He wasn't "vulnerable," he was predatory. And Jason Arday alone is responsible for Jason Arday's suicide. 

-How many American women have lost their moral sanity? Going by social media, it's quite a lot. They're out there in the thousands defending Lindsay Clancy, a Massachusetts mother who murdered her three children in cold blood and now wants to claim she had "psychosis." Lindsay Clancy was not a victim, she was a perpetrator. The same moral inversion that makes a sociopathic con artist like Jason Arday look like a poor bullied boy is convincing women to defend a modern-day Medea.
