Thousands noticed. The Met didn't order remedial training. It said the criticism was because she's Muslim.

Did you know there's such a thing as "queer anthropology"?
Anthropologist Elizabeth Weiss says it's a sign of a much bigger problem. When a field abandons logic, falsifiability, and consistency, it stops being science and starts being ideology. Falsehoods get presented as truth, real problems go unsolved, and the past gets molded to fit the narrative instead of di...

"We're going to graduate students who aren't faking it."
AI can now write the essay, pass the exam, and fake the thinking. So what happens to education? Are universities making sure students can think for themselves, or are they producing graduates who outsource their minds to AI?
Peter Boghossian sits down with Loren Rotner, associate provost at the University of Austin (UATX), to dig into it. What's actually wrong with legacy ins...

Dr. Debra Soh says sex positivity killed desire, not freedom. Peter Boghossian pushes back. If sex research cannot honestly examine controversial issues or even its own bias, how could someone know what Debra claims? Frankly, how could someone know anything about human sexuality given that entire fields are ideologically corrupt?

DISGRACELAND is an award-winning music and true crime podcast about musicians getting away with murder and behaving very badly. Jerry Lee Lewis's 5th wife? Dead. Sid and Nancy? Both dead. Why? Because musicians are insane, and insane things happen to them. Why did we lose Amy Winehouse at 27? Was Debbie Harry really abducted by Ted Bundy as she claims? Is Patti Smith not just the "Godmother of Punk", but also the "Original True Crime Girl"? What really happened the night of the Jay Z nightclub stabbing? What do the Diddy indictments truly reveal? All these stories and more, on artists from every genre and their true crimes, in our massive 260-plus story archive. The Dead, the Stones, Johnny, Willie, Frank, Kurt, Courtney, Gaga, Lana, Taylor, and too many to name. DISGRACELAND is music history come to life through audio storytelling as you've never heard it before, with revealing facts: yes, assassins are the real reason the Beatles quit touring—reclaimed myths: no, Mama Cass didn't die from choking on a ham sandwich––and constant reckoning between art and artist––all told through the lens of true crime. This is the podcast for the self-proclaimed "Disgos", the musically obsessed and the true crime heads; the outsiders, the independent thinkers who know that the best history is the history that gets buried. DISGRACELAND is where host Jake Brennan tells the stories they didn't want told. The kind you'll end up telling someone else. Get ready to uncover hidden truths and buckle up for truly edge-of-your-seat storytelling. New, fully scripted, sound-designed episodes are released every Tuesday. Bonus chat-style episodes where Jake responds to voicemails, texts, and emails from Disgos hit on Thursdays, and "Rewind" episodes from our archive drop on Sundays. DISGRACELAND is not a journalistic podcast. It's an entertainment podcast inspired by true events. Certain dialogue and scenes are dramatized, as is common in scripted entertainment based on real stories. Sources and credits for each episode are available at www.disgracelandpod.com.
