Remember that scene in “Say Anything” when John Cusak stands outside the window of the woman who has just dumped him, holding a boombox playing “In Your Eyes”? At the time, we all thought of it as a grand romantic gesture, right? But when something like that plays out in real life it can be entirely different. In this episode, Cynthia and Josie share their strange and terrifying experiences with stalkers. They also chat with Julie S. Lalonde, women’s rights advocate and author of Resilience is Futile: The Life and Death and Life of Julie S. Lalonde about her terrifying experience with an ex, why it was such an unmentionable and her thoughts on what needs to change in order to protect women from stalking.
