Crazy how when a girl is abused by one of her primary caregivers, someone can throw it back as an insult later. Colloquially, "daddy issues" means a woman who's more promiscous, needy, and probably dates older men. When it should actually mean "survivor who lived through childhood trauma and what the fuck is wrong with fathers for screwing over their daughters like that". Guess it just doesn't have the same ring to it. **Content warning for lengthy discussions of trauma & its lifelong effects.** (But don't worry we laugh at inappropriate times to lighten the mood, as usual.)

This week's episode: Sad Girls do Poor Things. The 2023 movie starring Emma Stone, Mark Rufio, and Willem Dafriend has stirred up some spicy rhetoric. Is it a movie about feminine agency, or an exploitative sexfest? Let's get wine drunk and discuss! Full of spoilers.

Since the dawn of time, girls have been socialized to be polite, modest, and dignified. It's an ancient, cross-cultural idea that's still around today. "Boys will be boys", while women of all ages aren't given the same allowances. We're here to say, fuck that.

We know you were desperate for more sports-related content. Last week was so fun we just had to keep it going! This one covers the Qatar/FIFA controversy and pay gap between the women's and men's soccer teams in the US (it is extreme). Then we go to discrimination, NCAA college sexual assault stats, and question whether contact sports are really all about suppressed homoerotic desires. Go team Sad Girls ._.

Sportsball. Spurtsin'. Sportsaroonees. Good or bad?? We take SPORTS! very seriously here. While there are absolutely benefits to participating in SPORTS! and it has noticeable cultural benefits, there's a dark side to it ~as well.~ But we didn't talk about it. We left out the relationship between colonization, capitalism, and SPORTS! Also avoided the pay disparity between the (majority white) top coaches and average NFL player, and the near 100% likelihood that professional players will leave that career with life changing brain damage. No. We didn't talk about that at all. SPORTS! ig: @sadgap.podcast / @misandristmemes / @txgothgf / music producer

STDs. Menty b’s. Hysterectomies. Just a few of the subjects we discuss in this episode that is more intimate conversation made public than educational content.

A proper guest on a proper podcast, this one! The gals interview Gia, a college advisor and faculty member from the East Coast. Gia’s studies were focused on queer theory & linguistics, and now they teach on systems of power / oppression. MORE IMPORTANTLY they were Alison’s roommate for 2 years, are still one of her besties, AND are all around lovely. <3

Vibes-based cinema. Bathcum. Could have been a TikTok but went on a little too long. Or the best film of 2023?? Who's to say. Everyone's talking about it so we had to, too: Saltburn. Starring some pretty great actors and directed by a gal who would have slayed on Tumblr. Late post because Alison was in a depression spiral. Enjoy!

Empathy deep dive! A discussion on the importance of empathy, mirror neurons, tribalism, and where empathy comes from, neuroscientifically speaking. Also getting into the question — will psychedelics actually make you a more empathetic person?? Tune in to find out!

Not something to take lightly! Pregnancy is a beautiful thing, but it comes with a lot of health risks. Pregnant people should be given alllll the accommodations needed to keep them safe... Instead of having their jobs threatened or being bullied at work, which unfortunately happens all the time :(
