Guerrilla Social Work Podcast

This week, we’re diving into a topic that lights up headlines and online comment sections like a Molotov cocktail at a PTA meeting: the female teacher–male student “affair.” You know the story—attractive thirty-something educator, underaged male student, and a society that somehow treats it like a subplot in a teen comedy instead of a felony. But we’re not just here for the tabloid trash—we’re also unpacking some real data. We reviewed a research article exploring how gender affects public perceptions of culpability and victimhood in student-teacher sexual relationships.

This week, we’re heading to the Lone Star State for a story that puts the “fun” in “funeral” and the “what the actual hell” in “criminal justice.” A Texas embalmer allegedly took anatomical revenge on a dead sex offender—and let’s just say, the body wasn’t the only thing getting stiff that day. It’s a tale of postmortem payback, questionable ethics, and the kind of crime scene that makes even seasoned detectives say, “You know what? I’m good.” Grab your gloves—we’re going elbow-deep into this one.

Looking for love? Maybe look somewhere else. This week, we’re exposing the states where online dating is less about finding "the one" and more about surviving the night. From catfishing catastrophes to full-blown crime scenes, we break down where your next swipe could land you—in love, in therapy, or in witness protection.

In this week's episode, we're diving headfirst into the tangled web of ethics, privacy, and professional boundaries—where the stakes are high, and one slip can unravel a whole treatment plan. We're exploring the delicate dance of maintaining informed consent and confidentiality when working with adults and juveniles who've committed a sexual offense. It's a world where secrets, trust, and legal landmines collide—and navigating it requires more precision than defusing a bomb with a blindfold on. Buckle up, because this one's equal parts nerve-wracking and enlightening.

In this week's episode we plunge into the wild, murky waters of unconventional second chances. We're unpacking the twisted saga of spouses reuniting with sex offender inmates who’ve just stepped back into the real world. Buckle up—this ride is as jaw-droppingly absurd as it is thought-provoking!

This episode explores the terrifying story of Ted Bundy, the charming yet monstrous serial killer who murdered at least 30 young women in the 1970s.

Bundy's eventual capture, conviction, and execution in 1989 are examined, shedding light on the mind of one of America's most infamous killers.

On today’s episode, Jeff and I react to an interview by Chis Williams on the Modern Wisdom channel with Abigail Shrier.
