Without A Country

On this episode of Without a Country, Corinne Fisher dives deep into the rapidly developing Cornell University gang r4pe case, including new reporting that the Tompkins County District Attorney reopened the criminal investigation, revelations about what Jane Doe actually told campus police, the DA’s claim that he never saw a transcript in which she explicitly said she was r4ped, disturbing fraternity group-chat messages including “shop still open," confirmation that the alleged assault was never reported to the Ithaca Police Department, and the impact New York's Voluntary Intoxication Exclusion has had on the case. Corinne also reads firsthand accounts from listeners about SA culture at elite colleges and an anonymous Cornell employee’s account of how the university has handled the scandal internally. Before that, Corinne and Mike discuss two “Enemies of the State,” including Michael Tracey’s attempt to identify the Cornell Jane Doe and viral victim-blaming rage bait surrounding the case; read listener mail about a positive surrogacy experience; examine warnings from AI researchers and anonymous industry insiders about the race to build increasingly powerful AI systems; and close with updates on the Nolan Wells death investigation, Lindsay Clancy’s case following her mistrial, and the extraordinary last-minute legal battle over Tennessee death-row prisoner Christa Pike as the Supreme Court clears the way for what would be Tennessee’s first execution of a woman in more than 200 years.

This week on Without a Country, Corinne Fisher begins by discussing her reaction to Patrick Clancy's 60 Minutes interview before turning to the latest developments in the death of 18-year-old Nolan Wells, including a Mississippi grand jury's decision not to indict. The show then takes a deep dive into the lawsuit alleging that a Cornell University student was drugged and gang r4ped by fraternity members, examining the allegations, Cornell's response, the university's Title IX process, and the extraordinary reporting by the student-run Cornell Daily Sun. Corinne also discusses rape allegations against social-media influencer Clavicular. From there, it's time for a Cuties Corner focused on the Trump administration's changes to endangered species protections. The episode then turns to the White House's restrictions on media access, the fight over press freedom, a DOJ lawyer's past writing about Hitler, and historical parallels involving propaganda and control of the press. Corinne also covers the ongoing genocide in Gaza and international calls for accountability, a federal dispute over handgun sales to adults under 21, and the latest meeting between Donald Trump and Zohran Mamdani. The episode ends with a conversation about surrogacy after the Supreme Court's involvement in a case involving a surrogate who refused to terminate a pregnancy after a serious fetal diagnosis.

They also unpack the newly released 9/11 air quality documents and what they reveal about what New Yorkers were told after the attacks, Meta’s massive settlement over the harm social media causes children, the global rightward political shift and Germany’s latest elections, an Egyptian TV presenter sentenced to death in a drug-trafficking case, the backlash surrounding Gloria Steinem’s legacy and her CIA ties, and alarming warnings from AI researchers who believe the race toward superintelligence could pose an existential threat to humanity.

This week on Without A Country, Corinne Fisher covers an enormous slate of political, true crime, and cultural stories, beginning with shocking allegations surrounding Costco's chicken supply chain, she then discusses the tragic murder of influencer Sara Gilson (Sarah Duffy) after she publicly accused her estranged husband of sexually abusing a minor. The centerpiece of the episode is an in-depth breakdown of the ongoing Lindsay Clancy trial, and, more specifically postpartum psychosis. Corinne also dives into the explosive BBC investigation into Jared Leto, discussing decades of allegations involving teenage girls and celebrity power. The show continues with updates on the mysterious death of Nolan Wells, as well as another suspicious death involving a young Black woman that has received far less national attention. Later, Corinne examines Daniel Ortega's announcement that Nicaragua will no longer hold democratic elections before reacting to newly released body-camera footage in the fatal police shooting of an unarmed teenager in Austin. The episode wraps up with a discussion of newly released material from Anthony Fauci's personal diaries and Elon Musk's latest AI lawsuit. PLUS: Boy George made a reggaeton son about genocide!
