Episode 8: More Conversations about Sex Crime

Heads up, this is an episode Todd and Tim recorded the first days after US Senator Dianne Feinstein came forward that her office had received allegations of sexual misconduct by then supreme court justice nominee Brett Kavanaugh. Very little was known at the time, it would be weeks before Christine Blasey Ford had the chance to testify before the Senate Oversight Committee regarding her sexual assault. They attempt to use the news as a jumping off point to talk about the culture of vilifying women who bring allegations against powerful men, but they discuss the specific case with very little information at the time of recording. Please see the show notes for links for better and more thorough information on the specific cases discussed. Deepest apologies to US Representative Connor Lamb who Tim continually confuses for someone who had sexual misconduct allegations brought against them. He is someone who in his military career as a Judge Advocate prosecuted sexual assault and sought sexual justice for survivors and victims.The Quiz this week will cover the following: Mansplainnation Classic from the distant past of September 2018, where Tim just hit record and they tried to figure out what the show was about on the fly; The Pseudonyms; Business Ideas based on customer Ages; Jousting to the Death; Furries; Anthrocon; Crazy Convention Sex; Todd’s Mascot Costume Experience as Albert the Owl; The level of kink that unnerves Todd; Tim Tattooed himself on the knee; Face tattoos; Todd’s Six Month Rule; Robbing 64 Banks and getting 65 female friends to sign a letter vouching for you; The culture of victim blaming, guilty until proven innocent, and dismissing accusations as boys being boys; Bill Cosby, Connor Oberst, the Duke Lacrosse Team, Brock Turner; How do you react as a fried when someone you know is accused of sexual harassment/assault; The mating display of of dick pics; Casual Relationships; Exhaustion of trying to be friends with bad behavior; Jerry Sandusky; What the survivor wants; Get your friends to do the right thing and what does that entail; The Person We Know Defense;Christine Blasey Ford & Sexual Assault Allegations Against Justice Brett Kavanaugh:https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christine_Blasey_Ford#Sexual_assault_allegation_against_Brett_Kavanaughhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brett_Kavanaugh_Supreme_Court_nominationBill Cosby:https://www.cnn.com/2018/09/25/us/bill-cosby-sentence-assault/index.htmlConor Oberst:https://www.billboard.com/articles/columns/rock/7897942/conor-oberst-effects-false-rape-accusation-car-crashConor Lamb:https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conor_Lamb
