    Welcome to the podcast where there really IS only one side to the story!

    Tracy Schorn, cartoonist and author, regularly attacks Esther Perel, a licensed psychotherapist (look her up in New York State!).

    Schorn makes her living repeating stories that betrayed spouses post on her Web site. Perel actually treats individuals and couples, and she's bound by a code of ethics. Schorn bars cheating spouses from her Web site, so every story she tells amounts to hearsay. There's no need to ask the other... more

  • For the haters…

    Coming for ChumpLady is akin to a bad rerun of the Crucible. For you. This Nation is powered by the tears of cheaters, liars, and abusers. A constant reminder that the esther perel drivel of the world is, well, just that. Drivel. Keep spreading the word CL. Keep speaking the truth CN. Leave a cheater, gain a life. Eat it all and leave no crumbs. TBelle ❤️

  • Brave Truths

    Tracy and Sarah have taken the brave step to empower the victims of cheaters. Let’s be honest, it is mostly women. Standing up for them and shining a light on the injustice is an act of feminism. Cheating is a crime not recognized by our laws, and their conversations provide a place for people to know they are not alone.
