John and Craig welcome back Liz Alper (Day of the Dead, The Rookie) and Brittani Nichols (Abbott Elementary, A Black Lady Sketch Show) to discuss how much progress has been made on issues from #MeToo, #PayUpHollywood, and depictions of police on screen. We look at common threads between the movements, and the difficulty of maintaining momentum once the initial impetus has passed. We also answer listener questions on how to deal with ethically complicated projects and why there's still so much copaganda on television. In our bonus segment for premium members, John tells Craig a real life fairy tale about ‘The Writer Who Left his Reps.' It's magical and full of hope.

What do the business of sports, Adam's email inbox, Stockton California pizza chains, and the contents of Amanda Rollins's stately pleasure dome have in common? Well, they all come up in our especially tangent prone rundown of "Hunt, Trap, Rape and Release" (S22E7) Munch My Benson's first taste of SVU Season 22. Along the way, we rate the loudest blouses in SVU, the greatest challenges in home laundry, and the least believable cast members of Law & Order: Criminal Intent among many, many other topics.

【主播的话】 Qing: 这是一期关于“她”和”她们“的节目。 过去几年之中,我们听到了许多来自“她”的讲述:她可能是好莱坞辛勤打拼的演员,遭到食物链顶端的骚扰;她可能是中国知名高校里的学生,遭到导师的掠食;她可能是遭遇强暴开启诉讼、却始终不能以真名示人的华裔女生。 今天的这位她,是我们的主播,我们的好友,若含。 法律不总是在场,但”她们“的讲述,本身就是意义,本身就是赋权。感谢勇敢的”她们“。 若含: “6年前,我被性侵了” 这6年时间中,我经历过许多挣扎。很长一段时间,我一度无法接受“我被性侵”的事实,也苛责过自己为什么当时不奋力逃跑或更有防人之心…… 我知道,许多有过类似经历的人,也会像当时的“我”一样自责。那个时候的“我” 对于“性同意”没有概念,也不知道“醉酒”不应该成为一个女生遭到性侵的理由。 我只是从小被教育,一个女孩子出门在外,应该多多小心。但从来没有人告诉过我该如何小心,小心什么,尤其当女性面对的是自己熟悉的师长和前辈时。 直到最近两年“Me Too”运动在全球范围内兴起。我看到许多勇敢的女性站出来讲述她们的故事,在她们的叙述中,我找到了面对这件事的勇气和力量。 因此,我也决定说出自己的故事,是因为我希望把这份力量传递下去。 尤其当我目睹最近的事件,更觉得心痛。在我 20 岁时,当面对和自己权力关系不对等的人时,都会一度感到迷失,甚至精神崩溃;更何况是那些未成年的、被精神操控,没有庇护之所的女孩。我也惊讶和愤怒于一个女孩在成长过程中要面对的种种困难,性骚扰发生的频率如此之高。 当然,也不是没有积极的方面,比如我们在节目里提到的哈维·韦恩斯坦,终于获刑入狱;伊藤诗织在日本赢得了诉讼;以及最近的新闻,台湾导演钮承泽被重判。 这一切,是因为女性打破了沉默,越来越勇于发声。所以,我们要说话,要拿回叙述权。要教育更多的男性“未经同意的性行为”就是犯罪,而非苛求女性成为“完美受害者”。 如果我的故事能够启发到哪怕一个女孩,放下对自己的苛责。又或者愿意说出自己的故事,这份力量就算是传递下去了。 【主播】 若含(微博:@X_Ruohan) 王磬(微博:@声几又石) 【本期剧透】 3'10 从韦恩斯坦在监狱里感染新冠说起 6'15 沈阳事件给北大同学带来的反思 9'20 鼓舞了若含的意大利女演员故事 12'00 华裔女生Chanel Miller和Know My Name 15'05 伊藤诗织的故事,报案过程的艰难 17'40 若含首度公开讲述 19'14 为什么过去了这么久还要再来讲述 21'29 当时发生了什么:我为什么没有更激烈地反抗? 30'40 过去几年里,那天晚上的细节,从来没有离开过 31'18 Morning Show:受害者内化了自责 37'04 掠食者的控制手段与话术 39'38 反抗了之后,然后呢? 42'01 那些期待完美受害者的人才是有病 44'10 性侵案里,取证太难了 48'30 如果你感到,你也正被同一个人骚扰,请微博联系我们 【延伸资料】 《From Aggressive Overtures to Sexual Assault: Harvey Weinstein's Accusers Tell Their Stories》By Ronan Farrow 纽约客报道 《Know My name》Chanel Miller 《黑箱》伊藤诗织 【音乐】 《Departure》(Max Richter) 《Elephant Woman》(Blonde Redhead) 【logo设计】刘刘(ins: imjanuary) 【后期制作】Tako 【制作总监】王若弛 【收听方式】 推荐您使用「苹果播客」、Spotify、小宇宙App或任意安卓播客客户端订阅收听《不合时宜》,也可通过网易云音乐、喜马拉雅FM收听。 【本节目由JustPod出品】 【互动方式】 微博:@不合时宜TheWeirdo 官网:https://theweirdo.fireside.fm/

Chana Joffe-Walt is a producer and reporter at This American Life. Her latest story is "Five Women." “I felt like there was more to learn from these stories, more than just which men are bad and shouldn’t have the Netflix special that they wanted to have. And I was interested, also, in that there were groups of women, and that somehow, in having a group of women, you would have variation of experience. There could be a unifying person who they all experienced, but they would inevitably experience that person differently. And that would raise the question of: Why? And I feel like there is this response: ‘Why did she stay?’ Or: ‘Why didn’t she say fuck you?’ Or: ‘I wouldn’t have been upset by that. I wouldn’t have been offended by that thing.’ Which I feel like is a natural response, but also has a lack of curiosity. There are actual answers to those questions that are interesting.” Thanks to MailChimp and Credible.com. @chanajoffewalt Joffe-Walt on Longform [01:10] "Five Women" (This American Life • March 2018) [01:25] Longform Podcast #289: Liliana Segura [02:55] Joffe-Walt's Archive at This American Life [04:55] "Five Women Are Accusing A Top Left-Leaning Media Executive Of Sexually Harassing Them" (Cora Lewis • BuzzFeed • Dec 2017) [06:15] I Love Dick (Amazon Studios • 2016) [08:45] "From Aggressive Overtures to Sexual Assault: Harvey Weinstein’s Accusers Tell Their Stories" (Ronan Farrow • New Yorker • Oct 2017) [10:15] "Lupita Nyong’o: Speaking Out About Harvey Weinstein" (Lupita Nyong'o • New York Times • Oct 2017) [08:25] "Your Reckoning.

Will Director Stu allow Writer Chas on his set? Following our annual wrap up in 2017, we’ve decided to once again explore what craft issues/lessons we can garner from the latest Stars, namely Episode VIII: The Last Jedi, focusing on how consequences of character actions can do a lot of heavy lifting as to how the audience perceives that character (as well as looking at worldview and overall story structure). We also discuss how the sexual assault allegations in our industry can impact on what work we choose to analyse as well as dive into a bunch of listener questions. We end on whether - if our space pirates project gets off the ground - Chas should come on set, whether Stu will have him and whether it would do anyone any good.

Jodi Kantor is a New York Times investigative reporter and the author of The Obamas. “Being a reporter really robs you of self-consciousness and shyness. You realize that it’s this great gift of being able to ask crazy questions, either really personal or very probing or especially with a powerful — to walk up to Harvey Weinstein, essentially and say, ‘What have you been doing to women all these years, and for how long?

TRIGGER WARNING: This episode includes discussion of sexual violence. Listener discretion is advised. In today's episode, Jaye frames the Harvey Weinstein sexual assault scandal and other sexual misconduct incidents currently in the news as part of a larger discussion on how we respond to oppression and violence. Why are many of us inclined to take the word of the accused if we can relate to them, or if they are powerful figures we like? At the same time, why do we hide behind “they weren't convicted” or “I wasn't there” to justify not believing the survivors? Jaye discusses the dynamic of privilege from a place of self-awareness and gives her thoughts on how we can better respond to people who share their experiences.

In the first segment, Jenn and Daren discuss the allegations against Harvey Weinstein and the misuse of power in Hollywood. In the second segment, they dive into gaslighting, defining the term and illustrating how pervasive it is in our culture. In the third segment, Jenn and Daren talk about sexual harassment in intimate environments and why it is so important for men to be vocal about these issues.

We do “adult” differently. We are That Black Couple. Our goal is to create a space for Black millennials to discuss and embody adult life on their own terms. We aren’t beholden to “traditional” gender or parenting roles, queerness is fluid and present in the ways we show up in our relationships and in the world, and we want to build community with other 30-something Black folx who are trying to figure this ish out.
It's been a great week for sexism. Swedish model and artist Arvida Bystrom was threatened with rape, after she appeared in an Adidas advert with hairy legs; a senior writer at Vice's women's channel, Broadly, was fired after leaked e-mails revealed that he had been lobbying alt-right ‘media personality' Milo Yiannapoulos to bully ‘fat feminists'; and then, well, there's Harvey Weinstein. The 65-year-old American producer, considered to be one of, if not the most powerful man in Hollywood, has been fired from his own company, dumped by his wife and dispatched to ‘sex addiction rehab' (obviously) after it was sensationally revealed by The New York Times and a dizzying further array of publications, that he had sexually harassed dozens of women in Hollywood, from A-Listers such as Gwyneth Paltrow and Angelina Jolie, to journalists, assistants and models. You'll never look at a pot plant in the same way again…. How was Weinstein's behaviour tolerated, as an open secret, for so long? Why are women expected to come forward, more than men? Was he fired because he sexually harassed women - or because the public found out? And, as we discuss at length, will the demise of Harvey Weinstein finally lead to the dismantling of the systemic sexism upon which Hollywood's very foundations are built? Time can only tell. On a trivial note, did you know pesto pasta has more salt than a McDonald's burger? Pandora's happy, veggies not so much.
