heads up!!! From like 4:00-6:00, something happened with some of Aubrey’s audio. We’re experiencing some issue with our podcast host where the files are clean and then when we upload… it gets wacky? Mackenna will be correcting it when she gets home later this evening! 

Hosted by: Mackenna Goodrich (she/they; @mack3nna) and Dr. Aubrey Hoffer, PHd (she/her; @hoff.phd)

This week, Mackenna and Aubrey start a two-part discussion on how the hell did Joe Rogan go from a slacker stoner stand-up comedian to a man who has sway over who wins presidential elections? We will relate this to the alpha male manosphere aesthetic and how it really is all for the boys.

Mackenna might be taking things too seriously again! This week, she galaxy brains out about how current trends in plastic surgery - amongst both Hollywood elite and alt-right politicans - reflect the rise of fascism in the United States. But first, a walkthrough of the history of plastic surgery trends in the US and Aubrey dunks on her brother for bullying children at pickleball.

Aubrey discusses the epic highs and lows of insurance mascots i.e. all the mascots are cool, but insurance is irreparably evil. And Mackenna takes us on a tangent about drinking culture. 

Hello, this week, we're back with the mascots and Aubrey is ranking her top 10 hottest fast food mascots. Also, Mackenna forces them both to make a tier list of all the McDonald's characters. 

This week, Mackenna and Aubrey watched Candyman. This episode has a little bit for everyone: the history of the Chicago housing projections, discussions of white saviors, Tony Todd, girl boobs, and also Ryan Reynolds.

It's time to get personal! We're bringing you a two-part series about the "goth girlfriend" meme on the Internet. This week, we define what goth actually is, discuss the "goth" girls we grew up with in movies and TV (Shego, the Hex Girls, Sam Manson, Wednesday and Morticia Addams, etc.), and get into the damage the big t*tty goth girlfriend meme has done to Mackenna and alt girls everywhere. We're going back to Reddit, baby!
