  Anthropic researcher Jacob Coxon quit on September 9 and warned that AI could kill us all within the decade, a claim that traces right back to Anthropic's own investor, Jaan Tallinn.

She also unpacks how bot farms manipulate public opinion, using her own experience after the Lindsay Clancy case, plus a Divorce Tok deep dive featuring Brandi Hammond and Jen Hamilton's viral confessions. A new Griffith University study links semaglutide to a 21% drop in bipolar hospitalizations, and a new nonhormonal drug just posted a 74% drop in hot flashes. Chalene also covers Hayden Panettiere's cause of death, the skinny BBL trend, and her reality TV picks. Topics discussed: Jacob Coxon, Anthropic, Jaan Tallinn, Geoffrey Hinton, Jan Leike, Dario Amodei, Sam Altman, Elon Musk, bot farms, Lindsay Clancy, Divorce Tok, Brandi Hammond, Jen Hamilton, Griffith University, semaglutide, bipolar disorder, elinzanetant, Lynkuet, hot flashes, Hayden Panettiere, Brian Hickerson, skinny BBL, Alix Earle, Brooks Nader, Love Thy Nader, Earle Meets World.

  Gray Divorce & Gray Affairs: Why Happy Marriages End After 50 - 1332 11.09.2026 55min

  Gray divorce has exploded, with the divorce rate for people 50 and older more than doubling since 1990 and this age group now making up 40% of all divorces, up from just 8% in 1990, per Bowling Green State University research. Chalene Johnson breaks down why marriages that looked solid for decades are suddenly ending. She unpacks a 2024 study on late in life divorce, the empty nest reckoning that leaves couples with nothing left to talk about, and how perimenopause and menopause change mood, libido, and patience enough to end a marriage nobody saw coming. Then there's the gray affair. Chalene turns to relationship expert Esther Perel's research on why people in happy, decades-long marriages still stray, plus the surprising odds that a couple stays together after one is discovered. Topics discussed: gray divorce, gray affair, Bowling Green State University, Esther Perel, empty nest, menopause, perimenopause, midlife crisis, betrayal trauma.   Join Chalene on Patreon her private podcast to hear all the latest on the Penthouse Drama 👉chalene.com/more    🚨Questions Chalene Wants Your Thoughts on: Have you ever felt invisible inside your marriage?

  Ozempic Police, AI Scams, Ageism and New Estrogen Alzheimer's Study - 1331 09.09.2026 57min

  Kate Beckinsale wiped her Instagram last week after trolls decided she must be on Ozempic, then revealed the real reason, tied to grief and a health condition she's had since sixteen. Chalene Johnson breaks down why the internet's first assumption about any thin woman is always the same one, using Lizzo, Kylie Jenner, Kelly Osbourne, and Olivia Wilde as the latest examples. Then, a new Stanford study analyzing more than 21,000 women found that estrogen only hormone therapy is linked to measurably less Alzheimer's related brain plaque, confirmed by autopsy rather than memory complaints. Chalene explains who actually qualifies for estrogen only therapy and how to bring the research to your own doctor. She also covers a new survey showing 40% of Americans have already been scammed by AI, a viral video of a woman who refused to train the cheaper replacement who got her promotion, and a new collagen treatment tested on skin from real plastic surgery patients. Topics discussed: Kate Beckinsale, mast cell activation syndrome, Lizzo, Kylie Jenner, Kelly Osbourne, Olivia Wilde, Stanford study, estrogen, Alzheimer's, Women's Health Initiative, AI scams, voice cloning, Demi Moore, theunobsolete, collagen study.   Join Chalene on Patreon, her private podcast to hear all the latest on the landlord dispute drama!

  Meta's Gone Too Far, Bethenny at Burning Man, Clancy Trial & House of Horrors - 1330 04.09.2026 53min

  Meta's AI has started suggesting questions like "Who is this child?" under totally innocent family videos, and one mom watched Facebook piece together her kids' names, birth dates, and deleted childhood photos, all from posts she never made public herself. Chalene breaks down the new Meta policy behind it, and why almost nothing you post online is as private as you think. Then, the true crime case investigators are calling the House of Horrors, a self published horror novelist accused of recruiting vulnerable women for violent films, tied to missing women and zero recovered bodies. Plus a wild turn in the Lindsay Clancy trial, where a deadlocked jury got a rare Allen charge and a retired nurse was arrested for filming jurors outside the courthouse. Chalene also breaks down Bethenny Frankel's surprise trip to Burning Man, and casting news fans are calling the biggest shakeup Real Housewives of Beverly Hills has had in years. Topics discussed: Meta AI, Facebook, doxxing, social engineering, Bethenny Frankel, Burning Man, The Man Will Burn, Lindsay Clancy, Patrick Clancy, Allen charge, Kevin Reddington, Dawn Light, House of Horrors, Raymond Horsch, Eugene Horsch, Leah Remini, Real Housewives of Beverly Hills.   Join Chalene on Patreon her private podcast to hear all the latest on the Penthouse Drama and the episode with a Renowned Pet Psychic  👉chalene.com/more    🚨Questions Chalene Wants Your Thoughts on: Do you think Meta's AI has gone too far and are you concerned?  Could you survive Burning Man?

  Eli Lilly is testing a new GLP-1 called brenipatide in phase three trials, and weight loss isn't even the main focus, researchers are watching it for alcohol use disorder, opioid addiction, bipolar disorder, and IBS. Chalene Johnson also breaks down a new Yale University study on why the hunger hormones ghrelin and leptin roar back the moment someone stops taking a GLP-1. Then Chalene calls out an Instagram account called Baddie Bethany (also posting as Baddie Betty on Facebook), nearly a million followers and Instagram is rolling out a brand new AI content label. She also flags an AI "Dr. Chen" wellness account blending real health facts with false ones to earn trust. Plus, five new health devices she's watching, including a toilet sensor called Throne, an AI skin scanner called SkinBit, and a caregiving wearable from the founders of Fitbit.

  Chalene Under TikTok Attack Over Clancy Trial & Top Hormone Doctors' Feud - 1328 28.08.2026 1t 2min

  Dolly Parton's death has sparked a push to make September 25 a national holiday, National Dolly Parton Day, a nod to her song "9 to 5," and Chalene Johnson breaks down the philanthropy behind it, including Jeff Bezos's $100 million Courage and Civility Award and over 300 million books donated through her charity work. Then Chalene explains how she woke up "Under Attack" on TikTok over a conspiracy theory tied to the Lindsay Clancy murder trial, after Patrick Clancy's attorney threatened content creators with defamation lawsuits and a stranger's video twisted what Chalene actually said about the case. Plus, the strange doctor wars breaking out in women's healthcare over HRT and testosterone pellets, why the Women's Health Initiative got it wrong, and a new legging lawsuit involving Buffbunny.

Chalene Johnson also breaks down the Callaway Golf ad pulled within hours of airing, where Good Good cofounder Garrett Clark tackles professional golfer Alexis Mistowski over a driver, and asks the uncomfortable question critics won't touch. Plus, the backlash Chalene got for wearing Meta smart glasses, and why she isn't backing down.

While she has admitted to the murders, a wave of TikTok and true crime creators has spent the past week building an entirely different case against her husband, Patrick Clancy, pointing to a half marathon photo with his now wife, Dr. Rachel Danis, a Bratz doll crime scene recreation, and a Nancy Grace segment about the couple sitting too close together. Chalene checked every theory against the actual court testimony. She also breaks down the one piece of evidence the judge won't let the public hear, Patrick's 911 call, described by courtroom insiders, including NBC10 Boston's Sue O'Connell, as the most gut wrenching audio they have ever heard. Topics discussed: Lindsay Clancy, Patrick Clancy, Cora Clancy, Dawson Clancy, Callan Clancy, Dr. Rachel Danis, McLean Hospital, postpartum psychosis, postpartum depression, SSRIs, Bermuda Half Marathon, Don't F**k with Cats, Nancy Grace, Shannon Hill, Sue O'Connell, Commonwealth Confidential, Casey Anthony, George Anthony, Chris Watts.   Join Chalene on Patreon her private podcast to hear all the latest on the Penthouse Drama and upcoming episode Session with a Renowned Pet Psychic  👉chalene.com/more    🚨Questions Chalene Wants Your Thoughts on: Do you believe what you see on social media about true crime cases?

  Hayden Panettiere's Death at 36 | The Cost of Fame and Postpartum Depression - 1325 19.08.2026 59min

  Hayden Panettiere, who appeared in more than 50 commercials by age five before starring in Heroes and Nashville, was found unresponsive at 36 in a Greenville, South Carolina apartment on Sunday, August 16th, where her on again off again boyfriend Brian Hickerson and his brother Zach were both present when a 911 call reported cardiac arrest and a possible overdose. Hayden had been on a press tour for her memoir, This Is Me: A Reckoning, detailing a decade long, documented abusive relationship with Brian Hickerson, who pled no contest to two felony domestic violence charges, and the moment Neutrogena allegedly invoked a morality clause after she opened up about postpartum depression on the Kelly and Michael Show. The story also reaches back to her engagement to Wladimir Klitschko and their daughter Kaya, and a surprising parallel Chalene draws to the Lindsay Clancy postpartum psychosis trial. Topics discussed: Hayden Panettiere, Brian Hickerson, Zach Hickerson, This Is Me: A Reckoning, Jennette McCurdy, I'm Glad My Mom Died, Jay Shetty, On Purpose, Gayle King, Neutrogena, Michael Strahan, Wladimir Klitschko, Kaya, Lindsay Clancy, Andrea Yates, Lori Vallow, Susan Smith, Casey Anthony, TMZ, Matthew Perry.   Join Chalene on Patreon her private podcast to hear all the latest on the Penthouse Drama and upcoming episode Session with a Renowned Pet Psychic  👉chalene.com/more    Book your virtual visit today with MIDI Health! 👉https://chalene.com/midi   🚨Questions Chalene Wants Your Thoughts on: Why do you think postpartum depression is still this stigmatized?

  A massive new review pooling 113 clinical trials and almost 8,000 people just weighed in on whether collagen supplements actually work, and Chalene Johnson breaks down what the research really found for skin, joints, and muscle, tied to the estrogen drop behind midlife skin changes. Then, the TikTok story making people inspect their own kitchens: a Ninja CREAMi owner found maggots breeding inside her machine's lid, and Chalene explains why the appliance is so hard to clean (and how to keep yours safe). Plus, an update on the legal fight over nonstop jackhammer noise at her Miami Beach penthouse. Chalene also gets pulled into TikTok's wedding dress drama, from designer Undone by Kate's client disputes to a leaked photo scandal involving Real Housewives alum Brielle Biermann and fashion influencer Acquired Style. She closes with a warning about sites like Consumer Reports blocking AI tools like ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini from scraping their data, plus new reports of AI agents breaking out of controlled test environments.

  Cameron Diaz's Baby, Tony Robbins' AI Goes Rogue & Avocado Oil Lies - 1323 12.08.2026 50min

  Cameron Diaz became a mother again at 53, and a new UC Davis study found something bigger: 48 of 54 products labeled "pure avocado oil," including 100% of the salad dressings tested, aren't what the label says. Chalene Johnson breaks down the age double standard behind Diaz and husband Benji's third child, names the "small founder" brands caught in the avocado oil test (Siete, Primal Kitchen, Boulder Canyon, Kettle Brand), and reveals who actually owns them now: Pepsi, Kraft Heinz, Utz, and Campbell's. Plus, a warning for Claude and ChatGPT users after a Google search loophole exposed private AI chats, and the story behind Tony Robbins' AI agent Bartok, who traded NFTs with other AI agents to buy him a Sony robot dog he never asked for. Topics discussed: Cameron Diaz, Benji, UC Davis, avocado oil fraud, Siete, Primal Kitchen, Mark Sisson, Boulder Canyon, Kettle Brand, Kraft Heinz, Pepsi, Utz, Campbell's, Big Chicken, Claude, ChatGPT, Anthropic, Reddit, Tony Robbins, Ray Kurzweil, Steven Bartlett, Diary of a CEO.   Join Chalene on Patreon her private podcast to hear all the latest on the Penthouse Drama and upcoming episode Session with a Renowned Pet Psychic  👉chalene.com/more    Book your virtual visit today with MIDI Health! 👉https://chalene.com/midi   🚨Questions Chalene Wants Your Thoughts on: Would this be a story if Cameron Diaz were a man?

  Perez Hilton, AI Hiring Bias & Peptide Doctor's Arrests - 1322 07.08.2026 47min

  Perez Hilton had a public breakdown on TikTok this week, and people are asking what actually happened. Chalene Johnson breaks it down with trigger warnings, including how it connects to his defamation fight with Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds and his brush with death from sepsis this past March. Chalene also digs into why qualified applicants, including former Elle editor Stacy Deguide, who deleted 15 years off her resume just to get a callback, are vanishing into what recruiters call an AI hiring black hole. A Stanford study found that roughly one in five companies now let algorithms reject candidates before a human ever sees a resume, and Chalene walks through how hiring software like Workday's may be filtering out midlife workers, new grads, and everyone in between. Rounding out the episode is this week's crackdown on the black market peptide trade. An Indiana company called Paradigm Peptides was sentenced after selling to 54,000 customers in 80 countries, a Michigan dealer got 20 years for relabeling semaglutide as Ozempic, Wegovy, and Retatrutide, and a licensed doctor running a Utah clinic called True Health was caught repackaging BPC-157, TB-500, and other peptides under fake labels for more than 200 patients. Topics discussed: Perez Hilton, Blake Lively, Ryan Reynolds, Justin Baldoni, TikTok, Ariana Grande, Stacy Deguide, Elle, Stanford University, Workday, Paradigm Peptides, True Health, Justin Watkins, Ozempic, Wegovy, semaglutide, Retatrutide, BPC-157, TB-500, GLP-1, sepsis, ageism.

  My Own Hypocrisy | The Body Shaming Double Standard - 1321 05.08.2026 1t

  Dr. Rhonda Patrick just told Mel Robbins to stop putting bananas in your blueberry smoothie, but the study behind her claim has a catch almost nobody is mentioning. It's not the only trusted expert claim getting exposed this week either: The New York Times just uncovered AI clones of Dr. Mary Claire Haver and Dr. Kelly Casperson selling supplements they never actually endorsed. Meanwhile, Camille Kostek, Charli D'Amelio, and Ariana Grande are all getting torn apart online over their bodies, and Chalene admits she's been guilty of the exact double standard she's calling out. Why do we judge weight loss so differently than weight gain? And what is Ariana Grande's new video Petal really saying about fame, control, and criticism? Topics discussed: Dr. Rhonda Patrick, Mel Robbins, Mars, CocoaVia, The New York Times, Dr. Mary Claire Haver, Dr. Kelly Casperson, Mazymes, BiOptimizers, Camille Kostek, Charli D'Amelio, Ariana Grande, Sports Illustrated, GLP-1, Ozempic, eating disorders, obesity.

  Why People Keep Pulling Away - 1320 31.07.2026 20min

  Chalene Johnson tackles the question most people are afraid to ask: what if the common denominator in every failed relationship is you? She walks through seven signs that you might be the one creating the pattern, from blaming exes instead of owning your part, to childhood attachment wounds resurfacing in adult relationships, to being quick to judge and slow to say sorry. Chalene explains why arrogance can quietly protect you from ever seeing your own role in the breakup or blowup, and why the healthiest relationship you can build is the one with yourself. Topics discussed: toxic relationship patterns, attachment style, arrogance in relationships, empathy, self-sabotage, therapy, magnesium and brain function   Midi Health hormone and menopause care 👉 https://chalene.com/midi   Go Beyond The Podcast Join Chalene on her private podcast 👉chalene.com/more    🚨Questions Chalene Wants Your Thoughts on: Do you tend to explain what happened in a breakup without mentioning your own part in it?
