In this episode, I tackle Rule 3 of Jordan B. Peterson's 12 Rules For Life which is MAKE FRIENDS WITH PEOPLE WHO WANT THE BEST FOR YOU. Believe it or not, I found a lot to agree with in this chapter.

But of course, once again, Queer Eye wore it better. Stick around until the end to find out which episode you can watch instead of reading about how much of a shitty friend Jordan Peterson is. Because as much as I agree with the premise of this rule, damn does he come across as a huge asshole in this chapter.

Do I make your ear holes feel good? Why not...

This is my favorite remix so far and it was worth the wait. I got funky with it after some technical difficulties made me start over from scratch. Kari and Kelly from the Workationing podcast cover the finer points of death, being a bitch, and looking a shark dead in the eye in this very special, originally Patrons only Lavish Mouth Noise Remix. This one was too fun to keep a secret. ;)

***cw: rape, sexual violence, glib mentions of violence

In this solo episode I cover MeToo as a movement for restorative justice, killing your heroes before they become rapists, and why you should Give Your Money To Women. I didn't plan it, I just grabbed my mic and started bitching.

Thank you to an anonymous donor for the new mic, getting used to it and having a blast. Next time I'll use a pop filter like a proper person.

Two inspirational ladies join me for Episode 20! Kari DePhillips and Kelly Chase host the weekly Workcationing podcast, where they detail their world travels as digital nomads. Kari also founded The Content Factory and Kelly works for the company as a digital strategist. These women are living the dream and explain how you can do it too.

In this episode of the ongoing Petering Out series, I tackle Chapter 2 of Jordan B. Peterson's 12 Rules for Life: An Antidote to Chaos titled TREAT YOURSELF LIKE SOMEONE YOU ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR HELPING.

I get into Peterson's "gender-promorphized" view of order and chaos, why the Bible probably isn't the best source for self esteem, other resources for self compassion, and of course the superior Queer Eye episode you could watch instead. Goodness he's so wrong in this chapter while also being so right occasionally--I edited out zero sighs.

In the second episode of the series on Jordan B. Peterson's book The 12 Rules for Life: An Antidote to Chaos, I examine some claims made in the first rule: Stand Up Straight With Your Shoulders Back.

I talk about what I like (good posture!) and what I don't (nearly everything else!). I reveal the analogous Queer Eye episode you should watch instead because it says the same thing, is more wholesome, and doesn't feature as many sea roaches.

Massive thanks to the patrons and chosen family that made my recent birthday extra special. xoxo

*Ooooh weeee* I start deconstructing Jordan B. Peterson's book 12 Rules for Life: An Antidote to Chaos. This is the first episode in a series critically examining the bestseller point by point. I start at the very beginning, the pre-party if you will, with The Overture before Rule 1.

This chapter gives a good outline of two of the major premises the rest of the book builds on. I talk about cultural dominance hierarchies, what the data says about Peterson's worldview, history, patriarchy, and why Jung and Peterson got their metaphors backwards--if you believe them in the first place.
