Episode 3 - Who are the Alienators?

David Shubert Season 1 Episode 3

In this episode, I take an honest look at a question many of us ask but rarely get answered — who are the alienators?

I talk about what I’ve seen over the years: how they present themselves, how they manipulate, and why they’re often believed. Alienators don’t always look like villains. Sometimes they appear calm, composed, even caring — until you see what happens behind closed doors.

I’m not here to diagnose or label; I’m here to expose the patterns that tear families apart and to help other parents recognize them sooner. Because understanding who the alienators are is the first step toward stopping the cycle — and protecting what’s left of our connection with our children.
