Annie takes us through the tragic (yet very iconic) tale of Mata Hari, the woman falsely accused of espionage and treason against France during WWI and one of the most infamous victims of being “woman’d.” Because, as it turns out, a woman shaking ass can be responsible for the shortcomings of an entire nation. Also this week, Chloe and Annie exercise their superior intellect in finally figuring out the difference between the Dutch, Danish, and Norwegians.

This week, join us for a discussion of intimate partner violence through the lens of country music that talks about- you guessed it- killing your spouse. Annie pulls a few iconic lyrics from both male and female country singers to look at the reasons men kill their wives and the very different reasons women kill their husbands. Digressions include trauma of the quail and marmot type.

This week, Annie does the hilarious and haunting work of surfing the annals of the Manosphere to take us inside the Incelosphere. Annie imparts on us knowledge of phrases such as "roping," "looksmaxxing," and "black pilling," terms which are, shockingly, not just invented by teens. From the humble and not-so-bad beginnings of the men's rights movement to the black-and-green text that adorns today's Incel Wiki, join us while we take a peek inside the minds of the men who can't get laid.

This week, Chloe takes us on a beautiful and meandering adventure through the world of GLP-1s. We discuss how these medications are disproportionately prescribed and utilized by people with more financial means, how they are being marketed toward adolescents, and how we could do better as a society to increase overall health. Most importantly, we talk about Annie’s inflammatory Tik Tok career and misogynistic men on the internet.

This week, Annie takes the gals on a tour of the history of Western witchcraft and Christianity’s (obviously) negative impact on how witches have been viewed for hundreds of years. Come along for a bit of Biblical scholarship worthy of JD Vance, some light etymology, and a discussion of why women were accused of feeding oats to stolen penises (really!).
