Ever wonder why dating in 2026 still feels like we’re running ancient software on a glitchy new system? This week on a cunts guide to peace, I dig into my theory of outdated genetic coding—the idea that our brains are still wired for survival patterns that made sense thousands of years ago… but now just leave us ghosting, chasing, self-sabotaging, and calling it “chemistry.” Are you actually in love, or just biologically misfiring?...

What if the chaos in modern dating isn’t just bad behavior… but outdated genetic coding running the show?

In this episode of A Cunt’s Guide to Peace, I break down the wild Catfish documentary “Hey Beautiful” and use it as a case study for something I call outdated genetic coding — the old biological signals that once helped humans bond, choose partners, and survive… but are now colliding with the internet, dating apps, and digital ...

What if your DNA is running your love life… and it’s about 200,000 years out of date? this episode covers netflix's "Sweet Bobby" I unpack how outdated genetic coding may have helped enable one of the most astonishing nine-year catfishing stories - proving that even intelligent women can be outmatched by both evolution and Wi-Fi.

 Ever accidentally dated a “diamond mogul”… who turned out to be a financial black hole? 

Episode 2 of A C*nts Guide to Peace – Season 2 is OUT NOW and we’re diving headfirst into the wild world of Tinder Swindler Simon Leviev 

I’m unpacking the chaos, the manipulation, and my spicy little theory about how our outdated genetic coding might actually make us WAY more vulnerable to smooth-talking con artists than we’d like to admit.

Have you ever looked back at an old… let’s call them a chapter… and thought, with a full-body shudder, “why on earth did I ever find that smouldering skip-fire attractive?” Well, welcome to Season Two of A Cnt’s Guide to Peace, in which I present my perfectly serious, entirely “academic” thesis: that many of our worst dating decisions aren’t personal failings at all, but the result of outdated biological software still running in t...

🎙️ New Episode: “Sober vs. Cali Sober” Longtime sober legend (and rock star) Tommy Vext drops by the studio - and what started as a quick hello turned into a full-on debate! We dive into the whole “sober vs. Cali sober” conversation — why I don’t totally hate the term (even if, let’s be real, you can’t reinvent “sober”), and why I think scaling back before getting fully clean can actually be part of the process. Tommy, who’s hardc...

I could try to explain the absolute disaster that was this flight - BOTH ways - but where do I even begin? Let’s just say I’ve enjoyed years of smooth, carefree travel… so apparently the universe decided I was long overdue for a train wreck in the sky. And oh, did it deliver. Here’s the kicker: among the things that went missing in the lost luggage was the portable podcast gear we were going to use for the Paul Harris interview in ...

Picture this: you’re in your first year of sobriety, and you find out your father-the pilot you grew up both fearing and loving-took his own life by crashing his plane. Now imagine a childhood where food was withheld because he thought you were overweight, where you learned to sneak and hide just to eat. Imagine being disowned when you developed the very same addictions and disorders he struggled with himself. Layer that with the c...

I had the absolute joy of sitting down with one of my favorite humans, the incomparable actor Max Martini! My first encounter with Max wasn’t in real life but on screen—through his unforgettable role as Mac in The Unit, one of my all-time favorite characters. Years later, life tossed in a twist: I moved to NYC, started dating someone, and—surprise—it turned out he was a close friend of Max’s. We crossed paths briefly, and then near...

Rashaad has always been something of an intriguing figure in my life. As he shares in our interview, I first noticed him years ago at the gym-back when I was still drinking heavily and carrying extra weight. We’d occasionally cross paths at Ralph’s too; his cart neatly stacked with nourishing food to fuel his training, mine filled with wine and whatever indulgence I craved to soothe the aftermath of a hangover.

For years, that was ...

The fascinating thing about having friends like Firefly is that they’re a bit like the sun. It rises and sets every single day, and because it’s always there, we forget the sheer magic of it. That’s how I (and I suspect many others) perceive Firefly. On one hand, she’s the friend I’ll have wonderfully long, meandering chats with whenever our schedules align. On the other, she’s this radiant force of nature effortlessly brightening...

the artist episode,how deliciously overdue.

As some of you know, I’m an abstract surrealist painter, and in sobriety, I’ve found my way back to the studio with a clarity and reverence I hadn’t known before. Art has always been my portal, but sobriety gifted me the stillness to step through it properly. It’s one of those strange and sacred gifts of a clear mind like suddenly being fluent in your own soul again.

Oh, don’t mind us,just two women fan-girling over each other in broad daylight!  Marissa is one of those skaters I quietly admired from a distance at the park, unsure exactly what drew me in beyond her obvious talent on wheels. Maybe it was the way the whole space seemed to light up when she was around-the sincerity in her hugs, that radiant smile that made everyone feel seen. We only just properly connected, and I honestly don’t k...

    Betrayal Season 5

    Saskia Inwood woke up one morning, knowing her life would never be the same. The night before, she learned the unimaginable – that the husband she knew in the light of day was a different person after dark. This season unpacks Saskia’s discovery of her husband’s secret life and her fight to bring him to justice. Along the way, we expose a crime that is just coming to light.
