    Ivy Insights

    The To All the Men I've Tolerated Before podcast is an incredibly insightful and thought-provoking show that delves into everyday misogyny and the experiences of modern women. Hosted by Natalie, this podcast features great conversations with interesting guests who offer unique insights. The conversations on this show highlight the presence of misogyny in our society and challenge listeners to reevaluate their perspectives. I highly recommend this podcast to everyone, especially those who want to hear intimate stories of women navigating the world.

    One of the best aspects of this podcast is Natalie herself. She is an amazing host who does an excellent job facilitating each conversation and highlighting important points. Her wit, skill, and passion for unpacking societal issues are infectious and make for engaging episodes. Whether it's discussing relationships, body image, or systemic misogyny, Natalie brings a fresh perspective that keeps listeners hooked.

    Another great aspect of this podcast is the quality of guests and discussions. The show features a diverse range of individuals who offer valuable insights into various topics. From sharing personal stories to discussing broader societal issues, these guests contribute to a rich and fulfilling listening experience. The exploration of systemic misogyny is particularly commendable as it sheds light on pressing social issues that need more attention.

    On the downside, one potential criticism of this podcast is the absence of Dina, a former co-host mentioned in some reviews. While her presence may have added another dynamic to the show, it does not detract from Natalie's ability to create meaningful conversations with guests.

    In conclusion, The To All the Men I've Tolerated Before podcast is a must-listen for anyone looking for deep insights into everyday misogyny and the experiences of modern women. Natalie's hosting skills combined with excellent guest discussions make for an addictive and relatable listening experience. This podcast challenges listeners' perspectives while offering transparent insight into dating women and navigating a male-centered culture. Incorporating this podcast into your routine will undoubtedly provide valuable and eye-opening content.

    Natalie is joined by her friend Shanaz to get her thoughts straight on the Netflix docu-series, America's Sweethearts Dallas Cowboy Cheerleaders. After a casual watch of the show, Natalie was convinced that DCC and the series was a great work of women supporting other women and her ideal type of feminism. It took a lot of people, including Shanaz, to get her to watch it again and see the sinister misogyny lurking behind the pretty facade. Shanaz and Natalie will talk about a lack of body diversity, low pay, women being in competition with one another, women being a commodity for men, and other ways misogyny presents itself within DCC.Make sure you have subscribed to us on Patreon!

It didn't take us long to realize that this season would not be delivering us the girl power season of our dreams were we abandoned trying to see Tom Sandoval and Tom Schwartz as good people who deserve audiences. Instead, we were delivered a season of any type of misogyny you could see in your everyday life. We had women be expected to the do the emotional and mental labor to make men feel better about their actions. It was a season where women spent more time disrespecting one another's boundaries then lending a helping hand. And it was worst of all, a season that tried to center and put on a pedestal the very men who were hurting the women of the series. We wanted better, Bravo. At least Ariana Madix and Katie Maloney were there to show us how our boundaries are important, we are allowed to be honest about the way we've been hurt, and we don't need to live our lives in the name of hoping the men around us like us.Make sure you have subscribed to us on Patreon!
