Content

Last week on our Patreon exclusive episode, we loved being able to answer a question that one of our Gem's had for Dr. John regarding power in the LDS Church. If anyone else has any questions or topics they want Dr. John's take on, we would love to talk through them in our Patreon exclusives. Feel free to drop any questions below and we will try to get to as many as we can over the next few weeks!
P.S. We'll have another episode up on Patreon later today!!

Paula Marie Cornell

Welcome Gems!!! Looking forward to sharing all our thoughts with one another!

Jeremy Christensen

I'd like to hear Dr. John do an analysis of Sean Combs.

Eliza Osborn

Early in the podcast, he had mentioned Israel Keyes. I very much like to hear his thoughts on that. A crossover episode with Josh Hallmark would be awesome!

Audra Neurauter

Hello HTC. I’d love to understand what Dr John thinks about all of these familicide events that occur or this recent case of the kid who killed his dad then moved in with mom and liked her too.

Kathy McCauley

I’m curious who’s answering your questions about the LDS church? I’m a devout, upstanding member and I’m hoping and praying your info is correct. Most of what is out there is incorrect.😔

Alison Clark

My spouse is a victim of CSA (pretty extreme), physical abuse, and neglect. He displays behaviors similar to narcissistic personality disorder when he is confronted with something he doesn't like. He is really spinning after starting therapy and relating the depths of the abuse to me. It's like he got worse after starting therapy. Can you discuss the intersection of abuse and NPD/BPD and how a spouse can help. We have been married 23 years and I feel alone and misunderstood.

Karlien Fourie

Why do people want power, or why do people want to be better than another person? Does it all come back to us humans needing to have purpose in order to understand why we are here, alive and on earth?

KD

Fantastic! Thank you! Is there a system/database in place to monitor children who are high risk for developing ASPD? How do we prevent these children from falling through the cracks? I think our society needs to focus on red flag behaviors, responsible reporting, intervention, mental health education and early childhood development!

Kelley Gee

Can you please share behind this paywall what happened with the Barsotti case and what made you decide it was too dangerous? I wish so badly for justice for Rebekah!

ShaRee

The last conversation was fascinating! Thank-you!!! All the good LDS leaders I know, don’t want the positions they serve in, they are people trying to serve the Lord and they lead with love. There are exceptions to these good people. I’m always interested in polygamy. Is it more out of lust on the man’s part. I continually encounter people on a monthly basis, who are still being raised in this polygamous life.

I have a technical question. Sometimes on YouTube there will be a video that is just for members. I have been a patron member for a while. I first started watching you during the pandemic trying to understand the Daybell case. Sometimes while on YouTube I will see "members only" video and I can't get on. Is this a different membership? Am I doing something wrong? I love your content so much I just want to watch it all. I am an "older" gem so I am always suspect of my tech knowledge. You guys are the best!! And please don't worry about your Patreon members if you get busy. I don't support you for the Patreon stuff (although I love it) I support you so you can have your main channel. And as an older parent myself (my daughter is 14) you are in the cupcakes years. Ignore us before your son. The cupcake years go by very quickly. There are many good crime channels but you are above everyone else.

Debbie Fulton

I was raised in a religious cult, I won't mention the name, JMJ, MY GREAT grandparents were sent to JMJ boarding schools, were beaten, made to cut hair, and in all due respect as a parochial school student for 12 years, I was told by a flying whoopi, that until all churches come under one Italian leader we wouldn't see the next coming. So I am now trusting in my Creator next time I want to come back as a better person, than the one I let go of the old ideas, self will run riot. 🏃‍♂️ peace, in no hurry. Respect you and this channel, always real!

Hi Alicia, you’re not doing anything wrong however they are two different platforms. The members only episodes are specific to YouTube channel members. The Patreon episodes may not always appear on YouTube. Hope this clarifies but if any other gems have any further input or can confirm or correct me, please add below 👍

JenAus

Hi Lauren, thoughts still with you as you balance family, travel and work. I do have a question but I’m still formulating it in my mind but it’s around what, if anything, Dr John has to do or put in place professionally before or after he interviews people such as Stacey Wondra who later become suspects? Also, have there been circumstances that you have interviewed people with the intention of broadcasting and opted not to broadcast, even behind a paywall? Do interviewees change their minds mid-interview and ask not to proceed?

Bonnie Schoeneman-Dilley

I would love to get Dr. John's take on 3 cases 1. State of WI v Chandler Halderson 2. State of Missouri vs Pam Hupp 3. State of Colorado vs Chris Watts One more.. Keith Ranire -NXIVM I would like to have Dr. John and Lauren share their insight on the LDS church, Scientology, and other Religions that fail to address abuse, or use corrosive control, shame and guilt that harms their followers

Thoughts are with you Alison - this is difficult for you too and you’re not alone. Therapy for CSA and PTSD that goes with it can open the Pandora’s box from hell. Thoughts with your husband also as he navigates this journey and may he have the support and strength that he needs.

Natascha Truong

I know Dr. John has mentioned Israel Keyes before I would like to hear him discuss Keyes. He is really interesting to me because he's the same age as me and I think I would have probably have liked him as a person - not his murderous side, but the side he showed everyone. Another case I would like his thoughts on is Kathleen Peterson / Michael Peterson. I found Michael Peterson really likeable, but my conscious mind knows that he can still be guilty.

Cindy Ginter

Our culture has changed since I was a child, I never had to worry about going to school and getting shot. That seems unimaginable to me to have our kids bare this burden. I am thinking about how kids use power or feel like they have to use power to bully other kids. I know there is a power imbalance for kids vs. parents, but is there anything we can teach to have children use power in a more healthy way? Maybe the parents of bully's abuse their privelege of power over their children? I have been thinking about this quite a bit, as I want to identify the antecedents to mass shootings.

I followed your coverage on the UHC CEO assassin. I wonder about reading the circumstance as entirely about his internal psychology. I grew up in the south for example and I think you can clearly see the effect of centuries of cognitive dissonance and rationalization of the obviously awful. The southern society was sick and it manifested in ways in its people. People in my family (we are descendants of enslavers) still struggle to absorb (sometimes even seeming to have their memory wiped out) uncomfortable or unflattering news. I think today we all know that letting someone die or be permanently in debt or forced into homelessness for healthcare is a moral stain.

I think when you trace your way through Greek tragedies you see an interplay between personal and political or societal moral transgressions that haunt the protagonists.

Lisa Layne

Given the work that you both do, how do you safeguard your own mental wellbeing? Both of you have witnessed some traumatizing things on the job.

Amy

I'd love to hear about the psychology of cult leaders/leaders of high demand religions,etc. Also, I'm wanting to hear more about autism vs aspd. I know flat affect is a characteristic they both share. For example, Elon musk. My understanding is that he is not diagnosed with autism, but many speculate he is. But couldn't be that he is a sociopath? One of my children is autistic and she is so kind and loving.

Marmalade's Mom

I’d love Dr John’s take on scrupulosity, and OCD in general. I feel like there is a great deal of behavior that could be perceived as arising from scrupulosity in the Vallow-Daybell and Ruby/Jodi crimes. Arguably the whole Mormon prepper movement and some of the more fundamentalist evangelical movements as well. Would also love Dr John’s thoughts on the so called dark triad.

Trish

I’m from Ohio and followed the Pike County murders of 8 Rhodes family members by the Wagner family in a custody battle case. So many twists and turns. The murdering family leaves the state for a year and then they come back. I would love y’all’s take on this case. Why would they come back, why wouldn’t one of the four family members say NO! We are not murdering all these people. I don’t get it. They still have one trial to go.

Emm Vee

Maybe a little off topic, but I'd love to hear Dr. John and Lauren's take on the show Severance. I think we are all asked to disassociate from ourselves in the corporate landscape, and see cult-like conditioning in some work environments. A little further into the subject of disassociation, I'd also like to know Dr. John's opinion on DID. A reputable podcast did a story on a young woman suffering the disorder, but I've honestly been very skeptical of the condition after reading more deeply into the most famous cases.

Natalie Daniels

A little out of the box but I’d love to hear Dr John’s insights as to why so many women are drawn to true crime. Why are more women fascinated by true crime than men? My husband often tells people my hobbies include running, reading, crafts and murder 🙄😂. My fascination is with the psychology behind why people do what they do (part of the reason that I love HTC so much) as well as the investigation process and the justice system (another reason I love HTC so much). But I’d love to understand why so many of us are so drawn to it.
