I am endlessly fascinated by the messiness of being human, and I find people who are vulnerable and honest about their struggles and shortcomings to be incredibly sexy. I invite you to join me as I explore other people’s stories. We will celebrate, above all, the challenges and setbacks that ultimately lead to growth and betterment. What qualifies me for such an endeavor? More than a decade of sobriety, a degree in Anthropology and four years of improv training. I will attempt to discover human “truths” without any laboratory work, clinical trials or data collection. I will be, in the great tradition of 16th-century scientists, an Armchair Expert.","last_synced_at":"2026-07-17T16:19:56.634074+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/armchair-expert-with-dax-shepard-229033"},"episode":{"title":"Dr. Elizabeth Letourneau & Luke Malone (on child sexual abuse prevention)","slug":"dr-elizabeth-letourneau-luke-malone-on-child-sexual-abuse-prevention","published_at":"2026-05-20T07:30:00+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/armchair-expert-with-dax-shepard-229033/dr-elizabeth-letourneau-luke-malone-on-child-sexual-abuse-prevention","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/armchair-expert-with-dax-shepard-229033","url":"https://rss.art19.com/episodes/fc25c87d-ca75-4d4a-814d-17c42030c724.mp3?rss_browser=BAhJIg90cmFuc2NyaWJyBjoGRVQ%3D--952c5701c84ad333c69d5faa668f8177091704f0","audio_url":"https://rss.art19.com/episodes/fc25c87d-ca75-4d4a-814d-17c42030c724.mp3?rss_browser=BAhJIg90cmFuc2NyaWJyBjoGRVQ%3D--952c5701c84ad333c69d5faa668f8177091704f0","summary":"Dr. Elizabeth Letourneau (One in Five) is a leading prevention researcher and Luke Malone is an Emmy-nominated journalist. Elizabeth and Luke join Armchair Expert to discuss the staggering prevalence of child sexual abuse, why this subject is so difficult to talk about publicly, and how a reluctant interview became a long collaboration. Elizabeth, Luke, and Dax talk about the difference between pedophilia and offending, why so much child sexual abuse happens at the hands of other kids, and how the current justice system often fails both victims and young offenders. Elizabeth and Luke explain why prevention should be treated as a public health issue, how shame prevents people from seeking help before harm happens, and why compassion and accountability have to exist together.
