Podcasts about Misogyny

This compelling episode features Lala, the anonymous voice behind "Lalalaletmeexplain" - a former social worker turned influential author who's helped thousands recognise red flags and find their worth. Rhona and Payman explore deeply personal territory as Lala shares her childhood trauma, decade-long career in child protection, and the systemic failures she witnessed firsthand. The conversation weaves through heavy topics, including misogyny, male influencers like Andrew Tate, and the recent concerning developments in UK abortion rights. What emerges is a raw, unflinching look at how childhood experiences shape our adult relationships, why anonymity can be liberating, and how society's treatment of vulnerable people - from social workers to women seeking healthcare - reveals our collective blind spots.In This Episode00:02:45 - The birth of anonymity 00:04:40 - Why hiding can mean truth-telling 00:09:10 - When dads abandon and mothers struggle 00:15:15 - Forgiving the unforgivable 00:24:15 - From personal pain to professional purpose 00:28:40 - When systems fail the vulnerable 00:42:35 - Blackbox thinking 00:59:55 - Misogyny as cultural DNA 01:11:55 - The Andrew Tate problem 01:15:00 - When women turn on women 01:32:05 - Justice on trial 01:38:45 - Tracking women's bodies 01:47:15 - Healing through words 01:52:35 - Moving trauma through movementAbout LalaLala is a former social worker who spent over a decade in safeguarding, witnessing firsthand the realities of domestic abuse and child protection.

Ellen Adair and Eric Gilde discuss the baseball portions of "Twilight." They introduce the film (1:49), with an overview of the story, the cast, and filmmakers, and review the 20-80 baseball scouting grades for rating the film (6:01). Amount of Baseball (10:35) opens with a true conundrum: what is the amount of baseball in the baseball portion of "Twilight"? Do we consider the "first Mariners game" and spring training? Baseball Accuracy (15:30) considers the viability of a four-vampire baseball team and a three-vampire baseball team, with the varying degree of problems that arise. Discussion of vampires' familiarity with John Fogarty's "Centerfield," seventh-wheel vampires, and the Mike Fiers of vampires (?). Ellen has issues with the lack of analytical positioning, and Eric queries the notion of thunder from an aluminum bat. Is Alice tipping her pitches? A brief history of baseball gloves (w/r/t Charlie Waitt, Albert Goodwill Spalding, Bill Doak, Rawlings). Some baserunning headscratchers with Carlisle. There is no spring training in Jacksonville (h/t Meg Rowley), but there ARE spring training/regular season timeline issues in this film. Storytelling (40:11) digs in on the substance of the vampire feud, Ellen's annoyance with the notion of the Cullens as "vegetarians," and Eric's annoyance with the sparkliness. Are they good at baseball? Would putting Bella's hair down really help mask her human scent? Some discussion of the directorial style and costume choices. Score (55:39) addresses the use of Radiohead, the Black Ghosts, Muse, and the squealing guitars. Acting (1:00:03) discusses the performances of Kristen Stewart, Robert Pattinson, Peter Facinelli, Elizabeth Reaser, and Edi Gathegi, with shout-outs to Anna Kendrick and Gil Birmingham. Delightfulness of Catcher (1:04:57) weighs the Moment of Utmost Delight, Elizabeth Reaser's line deliveries, and the matriarch as catcher, while Delightfulness of Announcer (1:07:28) doesn't offer so much. Lack of Misogyny (1:08:01) considers the strength of female players, the film's upgrade over the book, with only a brief foray into the misogyny of the whole premise. No spoilers on the following segments: Yes or No (1:14:20), Six Degrees of Baseball (1:19:52), Favorite Moment (1:22:01) Least Favorite Moment (1:23:50), Scene We Would Have Liked to See (1:26:37), Dreamiest Player (1:28:12), Favorite Performance (1:29:41), Review Thank You (1:30:41) and Next Time (1:32:39).

On this episode of Vibin' & Kinda Thrivin', I'm joined by YouTuber and host of Toni Bryanne TV Podcast and The Decision Podcast; Toni Bryanne, for a no-filter deep dive into the chaos of modern life. We're talking everything from the rise (and fall) of ethical journalism in the age of AI to why Gen Alpha can't read, and how misinformation is warping our collective empathy. We get into the Sydney Sweeney bathwater situation, the oversexualization of women in media, and whether it's possible to reclaim power through sex work or if the marketing is just getting lazy.Plus, we're going in on modern dating, emotional unavailability, choosing peace over partnerships, and why women in their 30s are living their best, most intentional lives. And of course, we wrap with a Spill the Tea that had both of us yelling “drop him off at his mom's!” If you've ever felt like you're changing faster than the world can keep up, this one's for you.Subscribe to Toni's ChannelFollow Toni On InstagramTo write in your own Spill The Tea For Therapy submission email Alessandra at vibinandkindathrivin@gmail.com.Follow Alessandra @vibinwithabgTo support the show please check out the sponsors!Earnin': Download Earnin today on the google play and apple app stores.Shopify: Start your $1 a month trial period at shopify.com/vibinSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Feminist campaigner Laura Bates has fought for women's safety for over a decade. But now her battle against misogyny moved online. She tells Amol how social media platforms are fuelling hatred against women, with algorithms promoting increasingly extreme content. The popularity of figures like Andrew Tate, whose videos are widely available, and offensive material is being pushed to teenage boys and young men, even if they don't seek it out.So how can it be stopped? What responsibility do the big tech companies have in combating this problem? How can they be held accountable?

Manosphere's Political Influence DiscussedNick Cohen talks to author James Bloodworth about his new book which explores the toxic so-called "Manosphere", focusing on its origins and influence, particularly in the context of political movements like Donald Trump's campaign. James highlighted his book, "Lost Boys," which explores the manosphere's impact and is set to be released on June 5th.Origins of the Manosphere MovementJames explained the origins of the manosphere, which emerged from pickup artist communities in the early 2000s. He described how pickup artists viewed seduction as a science and gender relations as a power game, attracting both men seeking advice on social interactions and those with darker, manipulative intentions. James noted that the movement often targeted neurodivergent men and sold expensive courses based on essentialist gender ideas, leading to a culture focused on conquest and objectification of women.Pickup Culture and Online ExtremismJames discussed his experience with a pickup boot camp, describing it as expensive and objectifying, but noting that some counterintuitive advice, such as being more of a challenge rather than nice, was helpful. He explained how the pickup artist scene evolved into more political and conspiratorial rhetoric, leading to the emergence of the Incel movement and increased misogyny. James also highlighted the role of algorithms in radicalising individuals by funnelling them towards increasingly dark and political content online.Manosphere Radicals and Social InfluenceJames and Nick discussed the radicalisation process within the manosphere and how figures like Jordan Peterson can unintentionally influence their audience towards extreme right-wing views. James explained that content creators often lean into controversial topics to increase their audience and revenue, which can lead to self-radicalisation. They also touched on the phenomenon of "gamer gaze," where young men online suddenly turn against women, and the role of social media algorithms in promoting extreme content. The conversation highlighted the complex interplay between individual circumstances, cultural messages, and the influence of charismatic figures in shaping political and social views.Right-Wing Resurgence in the 2010sJames discussed the rise of right-wing movements in the 2010s, focusing on how liberal feminism and identity politics created resentment among certain groups. They explored how this resentment was harnessed by right-wing influencers and politicians, including Donald Trump and Nigel Farage, who capitalized on "loser culture" and anti-establishment sentiment. James highlighted the shift in media and journalism towards clickbait and contrarian content, which helped spread right-wing ideologies.Read all about it!James Bloodworth, @J_Bloodworth, the author of The Lost Boys, A personal journey through the Manosphere published on June 5th by Atlantic BooksNick Cohen's regular Substack column Writing from London on politics and culture from the UK and beyond is another must-read.

Ellen Adair and Eric Gilde discuss the 1940 Warner Brothers cartoon, "Porky's Baseball Broadcast." They introduce the cartoon (1:23), with an overview of the script, the cast, and creators, and review the 20-80 baseball scouting grades for rating the cartoon (5:10). (Again, the lawyers advise that this is a cartoon, and nothing in this podcast can be used to relitage Posnanski v. Sepinwall.) Amount of Baseball (11:10) once again relies on this being a ratio and not counting stat for a seven-minute cartoon, some which even feels padded for time. Baseball Accuracy (15:00) digs in on the truly most confusing question in this cartoon: which, and how many, teams are even playing in this World Series, with the Red Sox, Yankees, Cubs and Giants all being candidates. The colorization doesn't help. The two-headed pitcher has a flaw in his/their plan, plus do they use a Pat Venditte glove? Some discussion of the 1940 World Series, including Willard Hershberger, Ernie Lombardi and Jimmy Wilson, along with the Carl Hubbell reference. Storytelling (36:45) grapples with the unsatisfying nature of the baseball play as a story, and discusses the many simple jokes. The scouts debate the pros and cons of the "round dog looking for his seat" storyline. Eric reveals the recycled material from "Boulevardier from the Bronx," and they discuss the screamingly problematic section of the cartoon. Score (50:27) addresses Carl W. Stalling's handiwork, including the tick method and musical references. In Acting (53:19), they discuss whether or not Mel Blanc is responsible for all of the voice acting, and if that impacts the score. Delightfulness of Catcher (55:18) presents our scouts with a conundrum, given the derivation of the turtle catcher. The rabbit catcher is unquestionably adorable. Delightfulness of Announcer (1:00:49) weighs the notion that the eponymous Porky Pig is the star of the show. Are the double-entendres part of his delightfulness, or just the cartoon? Lack of Misogyny (1:04:29) had the scouts scouring the background of every single frame, and coming up disappointed. No spoilers on the following segments: Yes or No (1:07:32), Six Degrees of Baseball (1:13:18), Favorite Moment (1:13:57) Least Favorite Moment (1:14:53), Scene We Would Have Liked to See (1:18:01), Dreamiest Player (1:20:09), Favorite Performance (1:22:52) and Next Time (1:22:52).   Join Our Discord & Support The Show: PL+ | PL Pro - Get 15% off Yearly with code PODCASTProud member of the Pitcher List Fantasy Baseball Podcast Network

The colorization doesn't help. The two-headed pitcher has a flaw in his/their plan, plus do they use a Pat Venditte glove? Some discussion of the 1940 World Series, including Willard Hershberger, Ernie Lombardi and Jimmy Wilson, along with the Carl Hubbell reference. Storytelling (36:45) grapples with the unsatisfying nature of the baseball play as a story, and discusses the many simple jokes. The scouts debate the pros and cons of the "round dog looking for his seat" storyline. Eric reveals the recycled material from "Boulevardier from the Bronx," and they discuss the screamingly problematic section of the cartoon. Score (50:27) addresses Carl W. Stalling's handiwork, including the tick method and musical references. In Acting (53:19), they discuss whether or not Mel Blanc is responsible for all of the voice acting, and if that impacts the score. Delightfulness of Catcher (55:18) presents our scouts with a conundrum, given the derivation of the turtle catcher. The rabbit catcher is unquestionably adorable. Delightfulness of Announcer (1:00:49) weighs the notion that the eponymous Porky Pig is the star of the show. Are the double-entendres part of his delightfulness, or just the cartoon? Lack of Misogyny (1:04:29) had the scouts scouring the background of every single frame, and coming up disappointed.

This episode is going to ruffle some feathers—and that's exactly the point. SOMEONE HAS TO SAY IT

Movie of the Year: 1999ElectionWhy Election Still Wins in 2025Election (1999), directed by Alexander Payne, is more than a high school satire—it's a prescient political commentary that resonates even more strongly today. In this episode of the Movie of the Year podcast, our panel dissects the themes, characters, and real-world connections that make the 1999 film Election a lasting cultural touchstone. Whether you're a cinephile, a political junkie, or just love smart storytelling, this episode is for you.Tracy Flick: Ambition MisunderstoodReese Witherspoon's portrayal of Tracy Flick has become iconic—a name synonymous with hyper-ambition. But is she the villain the culture made her out to be? Our hosts dig into Tracy's motivations, the pressures she faces, and why she remains such a lightning rod in discussions about women in power. We also explore how Tracy has been unfairly weaponized in political commentary and what her character says about gender dynamics in leadership.Related Link:Tracy Flick and the Misogyny of Ambition – The AtlanticMultiple Narrators: A Study in SubjectivityOne of Election's standout narrative techniques is its use of multiple unreliable narrators. The podcast explores how shifting points of view from characters like Jim McAllister (Matthew Broderick) and Tracy Flick enhance the story's depth. By hearing each character's internal monologue, viewers are invited to question their judgments and reconsider the "truth" behind every action.This layered storytelling approach reflects the film's central themes of bias, self-deception, and moral relativism—perfect fodder for a podcast discussion.The Real-Life Politics of ElectionAt its core, Election is a biting political allegory. Our panel draws parallels between the film's student election and the real-world electoral process, both in 1999 and today. We discuss how the film anticipates the rise of personality-driven campaigns, performative outrage, and the weaponization of narrative control.From Clinton-era scandals to 21st-century political polarization, Election serves as a surprisingly accurate mirror of American democracy. We also examine the cultural aftershocks of Tracy Flick's character, who continues to be cited in political discourse more than two decades later.External Resources:IMDb: Election (1999)Roger Ebert's Review of ElectionRevisiting the 1999 Season: American Beauty in the SpotlightAs part of their ongoing mission to revisit the films of their first 1999 season, The Taste Buds also take a fresh look at American Beauty in this episode. They reflect on how the film has aged, explore its themes in the context of today's culture, and consider how its reputation has evolved. This bonus discussion offers added value for long-time listeners and new fans exploring the best films of 1999 through a modern lens.Final Thoughts: Election Still Gets Our VoteMore than two decades after its release, Election remains eerily relevant and endlessly entertaining. Through nuanced performances, clever storytelling, and bold satire, Alexander Payne crafted a film that continues to spark debate. This episode of Movie of the Year unpacks all that and more, providing listeners with a thoughtful and engaging breakdown of why...

We begin with a silence, the kind that rings heavy in the ears of the alone. This is the quiet place many young men now occupy—a self-imposed solitude, carved out not of preference, but of defeat. The dating app didn't swipe back. The college classroom became a battleground of ideas they couldn't win. The workplace offered no solace. And so they withdraw—not only from dating, but from the belief that women are allies in life. They begin to bond instead with other wounded men in digital caves, places where contempt is currency and mockery of women is misidentified as empowerment. What has happened? How have we arrived here, in this silo of misogyny?

Ellen Adair and Eric Gilde discuss the 1992 Babe Ruth biopic, "The Babe." They introduce the film (1:36), with an overview of the script, the cast, and filmmakers, and review the 20-80 baseball scouting grades for rating the film (4:05). Amount of Baseball (10:01) is surprisingly baffling for a relatively objective tool, but our scouts try to parse the true amount given the unsatisfying, nothing-but-dingers nature of the gameplay. There is a sad player comp. Baseball Accuracy (15:00) dives in on this film's Babe Ruth pitcher erasure, including striking out Ty Cobb, and inaccuracies with Ruth's first career game and his performance in the 1916 World Series. His time with the Orioles and Jack Dunn also elided, with some unfortunate consequences including the creation of his nickname. Some examination of very young George as a rapscallion, his home life, and his time at St. Mary's Industrial School for Boys, plus Brother Matthias accuracy. Did Babe Ruth ever come late to a game drunk? There are many, many timeline problems, particularly with Claire and Helen. Ellen plays a game of What Year Is It. Discussion of Joe Dugan, Dorothy, Ruth punching an umpire, Ernie Shore's "combined" no-hitter, Eddie Bennett, Harry Frazee's sale of Ruth, the Called Shot, the Johnny Sylvester story, the feud with Lou Gehrig, and Ruth's "milk." Ruth's relationship with Miller Huggins, and his desire to become a manager himself, including anecdotes with Frank Navin and Connie Mack, are examined. WTF is up with the depiction of Ruth's athleticism, (including his purported use of a courtesy runner)? The final game has as many problems as the rest of the film. Storytelling (1:04:02) highlights this film's main problems: the classic biopic problem of trying to tell the entire life story, timeline jumbles, and the depiction of Ruth as a dumb man-child. Yankee Stadium propaganda. Ellen has a list of Unanswerable Questions. Score (1:20:10) envisions the scenario in which consummate professional Elmer Bernstein was asked to compose the music for this film. Acting (1:23:13) discusses this disappointing John Goodman performance, backed by a whole lot of It's Fine. Ellen uplifts one Trini Alvarado moment. Delightfulness of Catcher (1:29:00) had so many good catcher names and Ruth's own catcher feats as possible fodder, but nothing is made of them. Delightfulness of Announcer (1:30:31) considers the culpability of the announcers for the inaccuracies. Lack of Misogyny (1:33:40) has much to contend with given Ruth's biographical philandering, but somehow this movie makes it so, so much worse.

From founding the Everyday Sexism Project to unpicking how AI is entrenching misogyny, Laura Bates has become one of the UK's most unflinching feminist voices. In this episode of Full Disclosure, she joins James O'Brien to explore how one devastating week in her early twenties sparked a lifetime of activism- and why storytelling, statistics, and school visits remain central to her mission.Laura traces her path from a bookish childhood to acting ambitions, before recounting the moment a string of seemingly “everyday” experiences of harassment triggered a wider awakening. The conversation spans her battles with media hostility, the evolution of digital misogyny, and the personal toll of online abuse. With clarity and urgency, she discusses how sexism is coded into everything from CV-sorting algorithms to deepfake pornography, and why AI may be the next great battleground for gender equality.Honest, analytical, and deeply human, this conversation delves into what drives Bates to keep going, and what gives her hope for the next generation.Find out more about Laura Bates book,The New Age of Sexism, here

Welcome to the 3-timers club, B.J. Colangelo! The intrepid co-host of This Ends At Prom and /Film staple returns with a 2000s horror comedy that is, for better and worse, a cultural time capsule: Monster Man. Misogyny runs rampant in this wannabe direct-to-video American Pie sequel, but to a comically exaggerated degree that shines a light on social norms of the period. Then the Joy Ride and Texas Chain Saw vibes take over, with eyeball chili and corpses crushed into ground beef. It's a raunchy caricature sure to give 2000s kids PTSD, but weirdly enough, and because behaviors are so significantly overstated, that's ultimately the film's "charm."

This year marked ten years of Bravo's Southern Charm, where we get a glimpse at the lives of southern gentlemen and their ever present Peter Pan Syndrome. Annie Sieg returns as our reality tv historian to break down all the ways the men of Southern Charm reflect the misogyny we experience in our culture. The episode will cover Katherine Dennis, southern culture, Shep finally getting told he gives someone the ick, Craig and Paige's breakup, and all the discourse Bravo fans are having in the comments.Support the Show:Follow us at @menivetoleratedpod on Instagram! https://www.patreon.com/menivetoleratedpod on Patreon for bonus content! We are currently running a free trial on all three tiers!All ways to support the show can be found at https://linktr.ee/menivetoleratedpod.

In 2022, hip hop artist and author Psalm-One spoke to us about the abuse and mistreatment she endured at the hands of Rhymesayers Entertainment, including artists on the label. This experience led her to write the book Her Word Is Bond: Navigating Hip Hop and Relationships In A Culture of Misogyny. It was recently announced that Atmosphere, a Rhymesayers Entertainment artist will be headlining the Minneapolis State Fair, which was attended by almost 2 million people in the summer of 2024.

In this powerful episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Sana sits down with Marie Birtel—journalist, lecturer, psychological counselor, and author of I Love You, When. Together, they confront the rarely discussed realities of transgenerational trauma, covert narcissism, and misogyny within families. Marie courageously shares her personal journey of emotional abuse, generational silence, and eventual liberation. This conversation explores how abuse cloaked in societal respectability often goes unnoticed, how family systems condition women to stay small, and what it takes to break free. Marie's story is a mirror for many—revealing that healing is not only possible, but a powerful act of reclamation. About the Guest:Marie Birtel is a French-German journalist, university lecturer, psychological counselor, and author. Her book I Love You, When is a self-help narrative that exposes the hidden layers of family abuse and offers hope to those navigating trauma. Through her writing and counseling work, Marie empowers others to recognize covert narcissism and reclaim their inner truth. Key Takeaways: Covert narcissism often appears under the guise of victimhood, using control and dependency to manipulate. Emotional abuse in families can manifest subtly through guilt, gaslighting, and mood-based punishment. Eating disorders, depression, and relationship struggles can be symptoms of unresolved trauma. Misogyny within families perpetuates generational cycles of silence and shame. Healing begins with awareness, courage to speak out, and often cutting ties with toxic family dynamics.
