A Voice for Men

Tonight we are celebrating the month of Movember and International Men’s Day by asking all of our News Directors to call in, if they can of course.  We invite you to call in and tell us what you did for IMD or if there was an event in your area.  We will also be talking about the importance of men’s health in keeping with the theme of Movember so call in and share your stories and thoughts on this as well.

Tony Porter gives a talk at TEDWomen, in which he blatantly removes all volition and agency from women everywhere and places it all on men. Has TED become a bastion for feminist thinking? Join us as we discuss this and the 50th anniversary special of Doctor Who on Tales From The Infrared.

Like all professional damsels in distress, Anita Sarkeesian had to choose a good dragon. Just the right looming shadow to fall over her delicate and fragile sensibilities; just the right cackling stage-villain to inspire her cries of helpless horror.

 

She chose 4-chan. An internet forum known for it's underbelly of foul-tempered and hair-triggered trolls. 

 

But we at Honey Badger Radio have noticed something… odd. The wave of so-called hate that Anita received from her carefully chosen dragon, wasn't really all that bad.

 

Compared to 4-chan's usual scorched earth strategy--raizing everything to the ground and pissing on the ashes, Anita got a little singed, like she sat too close to a campfire.

 

So we have to ask… Did 4-chan white knight Anita? I mean, come on. Was that the best 4 chan could do?

Tonight we have as our guest Sage Gerard, A Voice for Men’s Director of Collegiate Activism.  Gerard was given the title after months of hard work setting up a Men’s Issues group at Kennesaw State University in Georgia. His new job is to offer advice and support to students across the country interested in establishing men’s groups at colleges and universities.  We will be talking about the obstacles he had to overcome to establish the group at KSU and what he hopes to accomplish with that group and others sure to be follow.  

This would be a great opportunity for students to call in and ask questions or discuss the state of men in at their schools so please call in!

On November 8, Huffnágel Pista, James Huff and Lucian Vâlsan will be talking about women’s sports in Europe and how under the guise of “equality” we have come to have legally sanctioned and publicly funded female privilege – with sportswomen who work two times less and achieve 100 times less than sportsmen, but they get paid the same in the name of the sanctimonious “equality” that the gender ideologues have been preaching to us.

Chess is segregated by sex, despite the fact that there’s no reason whatsoever – not even an ideological one – that women can’t compete on the same chessboard with men. In tennis, women play over 2 times less tennis but the get the same prize money as men. In football (soccer) the sales are next to nothing and the women’s football leagues generate losses. Yet UEFA and FIFA organize major women’s tournaments equivalent to UEFA Euro Cup or FIFA World Cup using the funds generated by men’s football teams. And the list goes on and on.

We’ll evaluate all this and many others and we’ll talk about this “equality”.

This discussion will be a little more relaxed than usual but nonetheless necessary to point out a huge example of redistribution of money from men to women in the name of “equality”. Call in at (001) 310 388 9709, or Skype in, after the news.

The show will commence at 7 PM GMT (London, Reykjavik and Lisbon time).

That is 8 PM CET (Budapest/Berlin time)

That is 9 PM EET (Helsinki/Bucharest time)

That is 10 PM FEET (Minsk time)

And, finally, 11 PM Moscow time.

For the listeners in America this means 2 PM EST, 1 PM CST, 12 PM MST and 11 PM PST.

For the listeners in Australia, this means November 9, 2 AM (AWST) in West Australia and 4 AM AEST.

Feminist Mary Koss says that we live in a rape culture in which we just don't take the rape of women seriously enough. Mary Koss also says men who are raped by women aren't really rape raped. Maybe sorta raped, well, not sorta raped, but maybe forced into sex you know? 

 

Actually forced sex is too strong for Mary Koss. Women give men unwanted sex. Like your mom giving you an ugly sweater she knitted for christmas. You know, one that's blocky-reindeer themed? And you slip it on anyway because, well… your mom gave you a sweater.

 

When a woman rapes a man at knifepoint, she's also is just giving him unwanted sex. We shouldn't go labelling it something it isn't, like rape. After all it's just an unwanted gift and it's the thought that counts right? 

 

All you raped men out there? Don't forget to wear your ugly sweater like a champ!

 

And Mary Koss insists it's really women who aren't taken seriously when they're raped.

This week on Tales from the Infrared, geek culture from a men's human rights-aware, red pill perspective, examines the new Star Trek Continued web series, along with other things including video games, comic books, and more. Dare to peer into the Infrared!

On November 1, Huffnágel Pista, James Huff and Lucian Vâlsan will be talking about how the workplace is now in a Europe hit by recession with a labor marked that it’s tightly regulated, highly feminized and which provides less and less.

We will discuss about how the workplace has changed in the last 20 years, with an emphasis on how this affects men, and will try to pop up solutions for young men today who can see clearly that accommodating to the current workplaces is a much tougher job than it was for their fathers.

This discussion will be of particular interest for the young folks listening to us and we would appreciate some calls from those that are in the labor force for over 10 years. Call in at (001) 310 388 9709, or Skype in, after the news.

The show will commence at 7 PM GMT (London, Reykjavik and Lisbon time).

That is 9 PM EET (Helsinki, Tallinn, Riga, Vilnius, Kiev, Chisinau, Bucharest, Sofia, Athens, Ankara and Nicosia time)

Japanese roboticist Masahiro Mori described a phenomena called "the uncanny valley". As a robot approaches human in appearance and behaviour, it becomes more relatable and lovable. But at some point as it gets closer and closer to looking and acting human, it starts to become… well, eerie and disturbing. Almost right but still slightly wrong.    It becomes creepy. Even a creep.    This all begs the question, what is the standard of "human" that we're judging so-called creeps by? Who got to set this standard?    The answer is that women do. Women decide what is and is not creepy and by extension what is and is not human.   But if women have taken it upon themselves to be the arbiters of what is and isn't human, isn't that itself… sorta creepy?

Tonight we have as out guest A Voice for Men’s Australian News Director Dr. Greg Canning.  He will be talking about the recent National Men’s Health Gathering held in Brisbane which he attended.  We also intend to catch up with him on Australian politics and other news issues related to men and boys in that country.  We are always excited to have our friend Dr. Canning on the show and expect the usual insightful perspective he brings from down under.
