  • Crisis Chemistry or Trauma Bonds?

    Crisis Chemistry or Trauma Bonds?
    Mar 3 2026
    Amanda and Chris unpack the complicated idea of trauma bonds, from Amanda’s relationship with Raffaele during their wrongful imprisonment to the quieter survival mode of early parenthood. They explore how crisis can intensify connection, why Hollywood romanticizes trauma informed love, and what happens to relationships once the emergency ends. Along the way, they wrestle with whether trauma is objective or subjective, how identity shifts under pressure, and whether facing mortality together can create a bond that is destabilizing, transformative, or both.

    Why the Arc of History Still Bends Toward Justice (Timothy Egan)
    Feb 24 2026
    Tim Egan is a Pulitzer Prize–winning journalist, National Book Award–winning author, and longtime New York Times columnist who publicly challenged the media narrative around Amanda Knox’s case when few others would. In this episode, Amanda and Tim unpack how predatory journalism, cultural bias, and economic incentives fuel rushes to judgment, how misinformation erodes our ability to agree on basic facts, and why truth telling becomes harder and more necessary when narratives turn tribal. They also explore why history offers both warning signs and hope, and how ordinary individuals can still bend the arc toward justice. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
