  341: Can Postpartum Psychosis Cause You to Kill? & Jared Leto's Sex Cult 30.07.2026 3h 9min

  This week on Without A Country, Corinne Fisher covers an enormous slate of political, true crime, and cultural stories, beginning with shocking allegations surrounding Costco's chicken supply chain, she then discusses the tragic murder of influencer Sara Gilson (Sarah Duffy) after she publicly accused her estranged husband of sexually abusing a minor. The centerpiece of the episode is an in-depth breakdown of the ongoing Lindsay Clancy trial, and, more specifically postpartum psychosis. Corinne also dives into the explosive BBC investigation into Jared Leto, discussing decades of allegations involving teenage girls and celebrity power. The show continues with updates on the mysterious death of Nolan Wells, as well as another suspicious death involving a young Black woman that has received far less national attention. Later, Corinne examines Daniel Ortega's announcement that Nicaragua will no longer hold democratic elections before reacting to newly released body-camera footage in the fatal police shooting of an unarmed teenager in Austin. The episode wraps up with a discussion of newly released material from Anthony Fauci's personal diaries and Elon Musk's latest AI lawsuit.

  336: TULSI GABBARD IS THE PROTEGE OR A CULT LEADER AND VIOLENT WHITE HOUSE DRONE ATTACK FOILED 25.06.2026 2h 50min

  This week on Without A Country, Corinne Fisher breaks down the political shakeups coming out of New York City’s primary elections and what Zohran Mamdani’s growing influence could mean for the future of the Democratic Party heading into 2028. She examines surprise victories from DSA-backed candidates, the role of endorsements in modern politics, and the broader battle for the direction of the American left. Corinne and Mike also dive into Jimmy Fallon’s controversial decision to host Conor McGregor despite the fighter’s recent civil seggsual assault ruling. Then, in a deep-dive exposé, Corinne unpacks the bombshell Washington Post investigation into Tulsi Gabbard, her upbringing in the Science of Identity Foundation, allegations of cult-like influence, and the mysterious network of advisers who may have helped shape her political career.

  329: RAT CRUISE & FBI STEALS BEASTIE BOYS 07.05.2026 2h 8min

  On this episode of Without a Country, Corinne Fisher dives into one of the strangest and most unsettling stories of the week: a deadly hantavirus outbreak aboard a quarantined cruise ship off the coast of Africa. With multiple deaths, questions about human-to-human transmission, and passengers trapped at sea, the story quickly turns into something that feels ripped straight out of a thriller movie.Corinne also takes a deep look into the disturbing online communities tied to the Columbine shooters and how vulnerable teenagers are being pulled into extremist internet subcultures through platforms like Roblox, Discord, TikTok, and private chat groups. The conversation explores loneliness, bullying, internet radicalization, and the growing difficulty parents face trying to understand what their kids are exposed to online.Later in the episode, the focus shifts to AI, data centers, and the future of American jobs. As towns across the country push back against massive AI infrastructure projects, Corinne breaks down the tension between technological progress, environmental concerns, corporate power, and the fear of what automation could mean for everyday workers.From cruise ship paranoia and internet cult behavior to AI expansion and political hypocrisy, this episode covers the chaos, contradictions, and weirdness shaping modern life right now.ENEMY OF THE STATE: Columbine ShootersDeadly Online Communityhttps://archive.is/bX5A8Hantavirus https://archive.is/3Zasthttps://nypost.com/2026/05/06/world-news/health-officials-think-theyve-tracked-down-source-of-cruise-ship-hantavirus-outbreak/Travel influencer  - https://archive.is/4eJSjDictator Article of the Monthhttps://www.wfmz.com/news/area/lehighvalley/northampton-county/slate-belt/opposition-grows-as-residents-push-back-on-proposed-data-center-in-northampton-county/article_882e5674-b4c1-459a-a930-e0fd840c36ee.htmlFROM THE ATLANTIC: https://archive.is/J3zk2https://www.forbes.com/sites/deloitte/2026/04/13/when-sustainability-becomes-tax-policy-what-leaders-need-to-know/FBI/Beastie Boyshttps://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/us-politics/kash-patel-beastie-boys-sabotage-snl-b2970120.htmlRape Kit Reformhttps://www.hollywoodreporter.com/tv/tv-news/mariska-hargitay-rape-kit-backlog-campaign-wins-50-states-1236582234/Mifepristonehttps://www.pbs.org/newshour/health/what-to-know-about-a-mifepristone-maker-asking-the-supreme-court-to-restore-access-to-the-pill-by-mailIran Warhttps://www.aljazeera.com/news/liveblog/2026/5/6/iran-war-live-trump-says-hormuz-operation-paused-amid-us-tehran-talksVoting Rights Acthttps://archive.is/tNpurWoman Found Dead in Big Surhttps://www.ksbw.com/article/suspicious-marks-woman-dead-big-sur-strangulation/71056881Disabled Adultshttps://newjerseymonitor.com/2026/05/01/benefits-cut-disabled-adults/ See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
