Psychiatrist Spots a Major Problem w/ Lindsay Clancy's Defense | Hannah Spier
Sep 5, 2026 · 25m
Summary
Dave Rubin interviews psychiatrist Hannah Spear about the Lindsay Clancy case and the controversial public reaction supporting the mother who killed her three children. Spear argues that feminist ideologies have distorted psychiatric diagnoses, leading to the pathologization of motherhood and a culture of victimhood. She contends that the defense’s claim of postpartum psychosis is medically inconsistent with Clancy’s behavior and that society must acknowledge women’s capacity for evil.
