Neuroscientist: The Devices Schools Hand Out Are Backfiring | Dr. Jared Cooney Horvath
Dr. Phil sits down with neuroscientist and educator Dr. Jared Cooney Horvath for a wake‑up call every parent needs to hear. Across the country, kids are more distracted, more anxious, and less interested in school, even as classrooms fill up with laptops, tablets, and “learning” apps. Dr. Horvath issues a chilling warning: the very school devices families were promised would boost achievement may actually be quietly eroding children’s attention, memory, and motivation. He and Dr. Phil expose how classroom tech can blunt deep thinking, lower test scores, and reshape developing brains in ways most parents never see coming. In this urgent, brain-based conversation, Dr. Phil pushes for straight answers and simple, powerful steps parents can take right now—at home and at school—to protect their child’s focus, learning, and future before more damage is done.Brought to you by SleepCreme: The foundation of health begins with sleep.

Thousands of UAP Sightings Swept Under the Rug
Another Epic UAP Failure. Dr. Phil breaks down why 93% of Americans have no official way to report a UFO/UAP sighting. Thousands of civilian UAP reports sit untouched while the government turns a blind eye. In today's Real Story, Dr. Phil exposes the broken UAP reporting system: no public reporting channel through AARO or PURSUE, 1,855 "Tier One" credible UFO sightings sitting in NUFORC's database, and two former U.S. presidents (Jimmy Carter, Ronald Reagan) who saw UFOs with nowhere to report them.Brought to you by Preserve Gold, call 844-718-2642 or text ASK PHIL to 50505 for your free wealth protection guide.Brought to you by SleepCreme: The foundation of health begins with sleep.

Dear Dolly, Because of You, The World is A Better Place
She wasn't just a country legend — she was family we never met. Dolly Parton's passing revealed a real psychological phenomenon: parasocial grief, the one-sided bond that makes losing a stranger feel like losing a loved one. From the wildfire relief fund she launched in 48 hours, to the Imagination Library that's put hundreds of millions of free books in kids' hands, to a million-dollar check written out of her own pocket after Hurricane Helene — Dolly proved family isn't about blood, it's about who shows up. This is The Real Story on why the world grieved her like kin. 💔🎶 See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Don't Forget The Ultimate Victims in the Lindsay Clancy Case
21 days of testimony. Seven days deadlocked. And the Lindsey Clancy jury still couldn't agree. Everyone's got an opinion on this case. But Dr. Phil says most people watching had no idea what the jury was actually deciding. He breaks down the real legal test, why 11 of 12 jurors sided with her, and how "hired gun" witnesses turn tragedies like this into a battle of the experts. But here's what should actually scare you: postpartum psychosis. Not depression. Not the baby blues. A psychiatric emergency that can hit a new mother — and Dr. Phil lays out the exact warning signs before it's too late. He also connects it to a chilling case in Illinois that suggests this story may already be repeating itself.*Brought to you by Preserve Gold — call 844-718-2642 or text ASK PHIL to 50505 for your free wealth protection guide.*See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

The Dangerous and Deadly Takeover Crisis
Dr. Phil discusses the dangerous and deadly national takeover trend that thousands of teens and young adults are participating in throughout small towns, and big cities, across the country. A trend that is being promoted on social media and results in hundreds of minors and young adults taking over streets, beaches, parks, malls, and even abandoned properties.Dr. Phil sits down with parents, Terri and Ivan, who say they had never heard the words "Teen Takeover," until it was too late. Tragically, their beautiful and loving 17-year-old daughter, Ali, lost her life after being shot while caught in the middle of crossfire, at a teen takeover party she was attending. Dr. Phil will also speak with Volusia County Sheriff, Michael Chitwood, who has vowed to go after the promoters of these takeovers, as well as Polk County Sheriff, Grady Judd, who has not minced words when it comes to holding parents civilly and possibly criminally accountable for their teen’s takeover behavior.Sponsored by Preserve Gold: Get up to $20,000 in FREE Gold & Silver with a qualified purchase.

Teenage Brides and a Polygamous Prophet: A Rescued Teen Returns
20 years ago, Warren Jeffs, the self-proclaimed prophet and leader of a polygamist and religious sect, called the FLDS, was captured – leading to a conviction, and life sentence for aggravated sexual assault against two minor females. But one year prior to Jeffs apprehension, Dr. Phil received a guest submission that introduced him to 2 teenage girls, both named Fawn, who claimed to escape the religious sect. At just 16 years old, both girls, in the middle of the night, claimed they ran away from their families who were embedded in the FLDS community. Both Fawns claimed that if they hadn’t escaped, they would have been forced to become teenage brides to older men, and immediately begin having children. But although they were safe, both teenage girls admitted were feeling pulled to return home. Today, Dr. Phil speaks with one of the Fawns, now almost 40 years old, to see how she is doing over 2 decades after their first meeting. Plus, Fawn was only 18 years old when Dr. Phil first met her, now she has an 18-year-old daughter of her own, find out how she feels about her mother's inspiring story of survival.

Polygamist Prophet Warren Jeffs Captured: 20 Years Later
20 years ago, Warren Jeffs, the self-proclaimed prophet and leader of a polygamist and religious sect, called the FLDS, was captured – leading to a conviction, and life sentence for aggravated sexual assault against two minor females. The FLDS has been described by numerous experts, news outlets, and survivors as a dangerous cult, where young girls, many of whom were minors, were being forced to marry men three times their age, and bare as many children as physically possible. But one year prior to Jeffs apprehension, Dr. Phil received a guest submission that not only placed his focus on Warren Jeffs, but also introduced him to 2 teenage girls who claimed to escape the religious sect, a decision they feared may have been a mistake. Today, Dr. Phil reflects back on that pivotal episode, and shares never before details about how he prepared to help prevent both teenage girls from returning to the FLDS, and the alleged abuse they claimed was occurring.

No Child Should Repeat Grades To Be Better At Sports
Is holding your child back a grade really the key to gaining an edge in youth sports? Dr. Phil examines the growing trend of “reclassing,” where parents delay a child’s academic progression in hopes of creating a competitive athletic advantage. With NIL deals and direct college payments dramatically increasing the financial stakes of amateur sports, Dr. Phil explains why more families may be tempted to view an extra year as an investment in their child’s future. But for most young athletes, he argues the potential academic, emotional, social, and financial costs can outweigh the benefits. The goal should not be athletic status at any cost. It should be raising confident, healthy kids whose happiness and self-worth are bigger than the scoreboard.Thank you to our sponsors:Sponsored by Preserve Gold: Get up to $20,000 in FREE Gold & Silver with a qualified purchase.

Honor Roll But Can't Read?
Dr. Phil argues that American schools are masking declining academic achievement through grade inflation, lowered proficiency standards, generous grading floors, and pressure to pass students, leaving parents and students unaware of their actual capabilities. He cites falling standardized-test and reading scores, remedial college placement among high-school graduates with high GPAs, and international performance gaps as evidence that diplomas increasingly fail to represent mastery. He also warns that excessive classroom technology may weaken learning by replacing handwriting, deep processing, and independent problem-solving. He urges parents to independently assess their children’s reading and math skills, calling for an education system that prioritizes genuine competence over graduation rates and funding incentives.Thank you to our sponsors:Get up to $20,000 in FREE Gold & Silver with a qualified purchase.

Sextorted To Death: Teens Being Hunted Online
Dr. Phil discusses how young adults, specifically teens, are being targeted online by sophisticated predators who work to entice victims into sharing explicit photos or video of themselves, and once the content is sent, the second part of the plan ensues and the threats begin … it’s called Sextortion. The sextortionist will threaten to share the images everywhere if the victim doesn’t comply with their demands which can include sending more images, money, and sometimes convincing victims to commit sadistic acts, self-harm and even suicide. Dr. Phil sits down Adam, a devoted and caring father who says he had never heard of the word Sextortion, until it was too late. Tragically, only 7 months ago, Adam’s 15-year-old son Bryce, a remarkable young man, with an unbelievably close relationship with both of his parents, ended his life, less than three hours after being contacted by on an online predator.

Lindsay Clancy: Dangerous Symptoms Postpartum Psychosis
Dr. Phil examines the disturbing case of Lindsay Clancy, the Massachusetts mother charged with killing her three young children, and the critical question at the center of the case: Were warning signs of a severe postpartum mental health crisis missed? He breaks down postpartum psychosis, how it differs from postpartum depression and the “baby blues,” and the potentially dangerous symptoms including hallucinations, delusions, extreme insomnia, disorganized thinking, and loss of contact with reality. As the defense prepares to argue that postpartum psychosis and multiple psychiatric medications contributed to the tragedy, prosecutors are expected to point to Clancy’s alleged planning and coordination as evidence she understood her actions. His analysis focuses on the larger question beyond the courtroom: When a new mother shows escalating red flags, who is responsible for recognizing the danger and acting before it is too late?Sponsored by Preserve Gold: Get up to $20,000 in FREE Gold & Silver with a qualified purchase.

School Shooter Warning Signs You Need to Know
A father just became the first parent in America convicted of murder for his son's school shooting. Colin Gray gave his 14-year-old son an AR-15 for Christmas — and ignored every warning sign along the way. Now he's facing 15 years in prison. Dr. Phil breaks down the Apalachee High School case, and the pathway to violence researchers have identified over decades of study.The warning signs almost every school shooter shows:- Early childhood trauma that goes unresolved- A visible crisis point — a noticeable change in behavior from their baseline- A growing obsession with studying past shooters- Telling someone their plans, almost always a fellow student, before it happens- Access to an unsecured weapon at home- Prior contact with law enforcement that went nowhereDr. Phil walks through what happened in Georgia, what law enforcement already knew, and why these same red flags keep showing up case after case — and keep getting missed.

The Navy SEAL Left Behind: 82 years for a murder he did not do
A Navy SEAL trainee who says he was wrongfully convicted of murder and abduction to defile for a crime the actual killer later confessed to committing alone, served 31 years of an 82-year sentence before walking out of prison. This is his first interview. SHOW DESCRIPTION: In 1995, 20-year-old Navy SEAL trainee Dusty Turner watched his swim buddy Billy Brown strangle a 21-year-old pre-med student named Jennifer Evans in a Virginia Beach parking lot. Dusty says he tried to stop him, but he failed. Bound by the SEAL code to protect his teammate, he helped hide the body. Eight days later, consumed by guilt, he says he confessed to his commanding officer, led police to the scene, and cooperated fully with investigators. Then he says the system took 31 years of his life. Brown flipped and blamed Dusty for the murder. Both were convicted in separate trials. Brown got 72 years. Dusty got 82, more time than the man who actually killed her. In 2002, Brown confessed on tape that he acted alone. A Virginia judge declared Dusty actually innocent. The appellate court overturned it on a legal theory never presented at his original trial. Under Virginia law, the only crime Dusty admits to ... helping hide a body ... carried a maximum sentence of one year. He served thirty-one. On March 5, 2026, Dusty walked out of prison. He is 51 years old. His murder conviction still stands. He is not exonerated. Now, for the first time, Dusty sits down with Dr. Phil, alongside his mother Linda, who never stopped fighting ... to tell his story, confront the system that he says failed him, and face the most difficult question of all: how do you rebuild a life when the majority of it was taken from you for something you say you didn't do?This episode is made possible with the support of our sponsors.

Psychology of Disclosure: The Conversation No One's Having
The government is walking us toward the biggest announcement in human history ... a hearing here, a report there, a file at a time. Clinical psychologist Dr. Jennice Vilhauer says we're getting the truth with no instructions. She joins Dr. Phil to explain why disclosure isn't an information problem but a human one, who's most at risk when it lands, why witnesses have been misjudged for seventy years, and why "we'll be fine" is not a plan.Thank you to our sponsor:Retirement Ready?

How Harmful Hate Stickers and Retaliation Suddenly Went Wrong
A multicultural celebration meant to unite a Michigan elementary school erupted into controversy after children were offered political stickers, including one depicting an assault rifle and another containing an anti-Zionist obscenity. The mothers who organized the Palestinian heritage table say the stickers were accidentally included in a bulk online order. The school district called the material discriminatory and antisemitic, barred the women from volunteering for the remainder of the year and launched an investigation. Then the backlash escalated: one mother says her address was posted online, her employer was pressured to fire her and her 10-year-old child was confronted by older children. Dr. Phil examines the case against the backdrop of a recent attack on a nearby synagogue and asks the central question: When intent and impact collide, what does real accountability look like? He argues that the stickers caused legitimate harm but that doxing, harassment and frightening a child are not justice. Can a community protect Jewish families, acknowledge an honest mistake and reject public cruelty at the same time?This episode is made possible with the support of our sponsors.

The Reason This Rich New Yorker Shoplifts Should Outrage You
A wealthy New York writer admits to shoplifting from Whole Foods — and says everyone else should try it too. Dr. Phil breaks down the trend some are calling "microlooting," where privileged, high-earning Americans reportedly justify stealing from big corporations as a form of protest.The backlash started with a New York Times podcast, where writer Jia Tolentino — who reportedly owns a $2.5 million Brooklyn brownstone — admitted to shoplifting from Whole Foods "on several occasions," saying she didn't feel bad about it and telling listeners to "try it, see what happens." Political commentator Hasan Piker echoed the sentiment, arguing stores already factor theft into their profit margins. Dr. Phil breaks down why this logic doesn't just hurt corporations — it hurts workers, drives up prices, and coincides with what's being called the 2025 "retail apocalypse," with reports of over 8,100 stores closing nationwide. According to industry estimates, retailers lose $45–50 billion a year to shoplifting alone, and total retail shrink has reportedly topped $112 billion annually. Self-checkout theft is said to be up sharply too, with a reported 36 million Americans admitting to stealing from kiosks — including an estimated 40% of six-figure earners. This is the real story behind "just a few lemons." 🔔 Subscribe for new episodes of The Real Story with Dr. Phil every week. This episode is made possible with the support of our sponsors.

Countries Are Banning Social Media. So Why Isn't America?
Countries around the world are moving to protect children from social media. So why is America still waiting? The United Kingdom has announced plans to ban social media for children under 16, joining a growing international movement demanding stronger safeguards for young users. In this episode of The Real Story, Dr. Phil examines the research linking excessive social media use to anxiety, depression, loneliness, cognitive decline, cyberbullying, self-harm content and dangerous viral challenges. Dr. Phil also shares the devastating stories of parents who lost children after online harms, explains how algorithms are engineered to keep young users scrolling and examines the legal protections that have helped shield major technology companies from accountability. But parents do not have to wait for Congress. Dr. Phil outlines practical steps families can take now, including delaying social media access, organizing phone-free communities and working with other parents to give children their childhood back. The verdict on unregulated social media is becoming impossible to ignore. The question is whether America will act before more families pay the price.Thank you to our sponsors:RELAXIUM® Sleep is backed by a 90-day guarantee, so you’ve got nothing to lose.

Sex Offenders: Are Communities Really Safe?
It’s been reported that we are approaching 1 million registered sex offenders in communities throughout the country. To protect communities, states have a sexual offender registry which was enacted to keep track of registered offenders, reduce re-offending, and to deter individuals not on the registry from committing sexual offenses. Tonight, Dr. Phil will discuss whether or not the sex offender registry is actually succeeding in what it was intended to do. Dr. Phil will speak with Dani, a parent who recently discovered a registered sex offender, convicted of an offense against a 12 year old girl years earlier, was performing maintenance duties as an independent contractor, at her children’s private Christian School. She claims the registry did not stop him from finding an employment at a school. Dr. Phil will also meet Taylor, the 12 year old girl, who is now an adult, and says she didn’t want to remain anonymous because she wants to lawmakers to know more needs to be done to protect children from those on the registry. Dr. Phil will also speak with Judge Rosemarie Aquilina, a 30th Circuit Court for Ingham County, Michigan, who shares why she believes the sex offender registry is a complete false sense of security, and does not protect the communities it aims to keep safe.Thank you to our sponsors:SleepCreme: The foundation of health begins with sleep.

Disclosure: What We Know, What Happens Next
For 80 years, the government's official position on UFOs was a shrug. That era is over. With presidential declassification orders, the Pentagon's new PURSUE website drawing over a billion hits, and 330+ files now public... including fighter jet targeting footage, astronaut transcripts, and a sworn account from a serving intelligence officer... disclosure is no longer a fringe theory. It's happening. Dr. Phil sits down with Christopher Mellon, the former Pentagon insider who brought the Navy UAP videos to light, and Bryce Zabel, the journalist and producer who predicted this moment 15 years ago. Together they break down what's been released, why the stigma was manufactured in the first place, and the question only Dr. Phil is equipped to answer: how do everyday people... parents, children, people of faith... make sense of the most life-changing revelation of our time?This episode is made possible with the support of our sponsors.Retirement Ready?

Explosive Proof the Government Hid UFOs for 80 Years
Dr. Phil breaks down the Pentagon's newly released UFO files, 40 declassified UAP documents, videos, and audio recordings, some hidden for 80 years and shows the proof behind his statement that the government has been lying about UFOs for 79 years. In this episode of The Real Story, Dr. Phil examines the declassified evidence for himself: JANAP 146, the 1953 military regulation that threatened pilots with 10 years in prison for discussing UFO sightings; the secret 1971 Turner Report, in which an Australian intelligence officer documented a U.S. "facade of ridicule"; Project Sign, the Air Force's first UFO investigation; the retired officials who spoke out, including the first CIA Director; and the Bolender memo proving national security UFO reports were kept out of Project Blue Book.

Convicted for Surviving
What would you do if your daughter called you from jail and said " I killed him. He was beating me and I killed him.” Should she spend the rest of her life in prison? That question is not hypothetical. It is happening right now in every state in this country. Up to 95% of women behind bars were abuse victims before they ever set foot in a courtroom. More than 40 states have no legal mechanism to help them. None. Oklahoma tried to change that. In 2024, the state passed the Survivors’ Act... landmark legislation giving domestic violence victims who committed crimes as a result of their abuse a chance at a reduced sentence. It passed with near-unanimous support in one of the reddest states in America. One person has walked free. Dr. Phil sits down with survivor and advocate Audrey Prosper, the attorney who built the law from the ground up, and the DA who says he supports it ... and has opposed every case brought under it in his county. What happens in Oklahoma's courtrooms isn't just an Oklahoma story. It's a warning, and a blueprint, for the rest of the country.CarShield is how you move from chaos to control.

Stop Lying To Yourself: Why You Do What You Do and Don't Do
Part 2: Why do we keep repeating the same patterns even when they hurt us? In this episode, Stop Lying to Yourself examines the logic behind behavior: the beliefs, payoffs, and scripts that can quietly shape how we see ourselves, what we believe we deserve, and the choices we make. Viewers are challenged to assess actions by their results and thoughts by their rationality; identify the life chain, life script, and personal truth influencing their lives; and stop rewarding the behavior that keeps them stuck. Part 2 moves from insight to action, asking viewers to decide who they are on purpose, earn better by showing up differently, and take one courageous act of non-silence. The message is clear: you can respect others and still tell the truth and speaking up may be the first step toward finally living your own life.

The Ultimate Squatter Scam: Is Your Home Safe?
Across the country, thieving squatters are staking claim to homes they don’t own, and these professional trespassers are so sophisticated that when they are finally discovered, they know the loopholes that keep police from being able to arrest, and kick them to the curb! Dr. Phil will speak with Irma, a realtor who says it took 9 months to remove a squatter that she found living in a condo she had purchased. Find out why Irma says the civil and criminal court system protected the squatter more than it protected her -a man who was never identified or arrested. Dr. Phil will also meet Connor, who says it took him 2 months to remove an alleged female squatter he claims illegally moved into the 7-bedroom rental property he owned. Connor claims the squatter did more than just make herself at home, she attempted to prove that she was the rightful homeowner, and he was the criminal trespasser. Plus, Dr. Phil will speak with civil and criminal law attorney Donte Mills about how homeowners can protect their homes from being stolen by squatters.This episode is made possible with the support of our sponsors.Pure Blue Fish grows the freshest fish in the world.

Fentanyl, Suicide and Isolation: The Truth About America’s Lost Generation
America is one of the wealthiest nations in the world so why are younger Americans dying at dramatically higher rates than their peers in other developed countries? Dr. Phil breaks down the growing crisis of “deaths of despair”: drug overdoses, fentanyl poisonings, alcohol-related illness, suicide, depression, and profound social isolation. He examines the widening mortality gap facing Americans under 45, the role of screens and social media in replacing real-world connection, and why digitally connected young people may be more emotionally disconnected than ever. Do not wait until tragedy happens to reach out. A call, an invitation, or one act of kindness could help someone feel seen and could save a life.This episode is brought to you by:Get up to $20,000 in FREE Gold & Silver with a qualified purchase.
