What Everyone Got Wrong About the Kiss Cam Scandal

What Everyone Got Wrong About the Kiss Cam Scandal

Author: Francis Tapon February 14, 2026 Duration: 27:50

Dr. Isabelle Morley is a couples therapist and author of "They're Not Gaslighting You."

The kiss cam moment exposes much more than a couple’s private drama—it reveals how we judge, label, and punish one another in the court of public opinion. In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Isabelle Morley to unpack why cheating feels unforgivable to most people, how labels and “therapy-speak” get weaponized online, and what gaslighting really looks like beyond the memes. We also explore when it makes sense to set boundaries, walk away from toxic situations, or hire a therapist instead of relying on social media for armchair diagnosis.
