A podcast about the ways that shame shapes everything.

About Shame Rules!
Shame Rules! is a new podcast that explores the many, many, many ways that shame, often invisibly, shapes not just our own lives and experiences, but our entire world.
Shame plays an important role in how we raise and educate our children, which laws get written, how we treat marginalized people, how we view change itself, who has power - and who doesn’t, and that’s just to name a few…
Produced by Nick Jaworski & Epiphonic, each episode uses stories to highlight just how all of this shame works. To help tell these stories, Nick will be joined by leading shame scholars, researchers, authors, and filmmakers.
