Talk To Me Taylor

Covid ain't shit. The insecure male is the new pandemic in town. From Jonah Hill to Dave Portnoy, and the mother-load of the Andrew Tate-Tucker Carlson sit-down, this episode discerns the difference between plain insecurity and true misogyny in this all-around mess of masculine identity I've been vocal about for years. Big picture, guys: Why did 50 million people watch the Tate-Carlson circus show in one day? Further, why did it resonate with so many as gospel? Hate to say I told you so, but as an advocate for the restoration of REAL, honorable masculinity, I could've predicted this years ago. And if Andrew Tate is your messiah of what a man should be, consider me concerned... and yourself cancelled.

While tech companies race in their taking-over-our-consciousness-but-make-it-chic era, I have some major questions about AI and the accelerated pace its moving. With me is expert Artem Petrov (@tommyart), recent Tech Creative Director at META (formerly at Snapchat) with a new project GetGen AI. He weighs in on our existential concerns like: AI dwindling (or helping?) kids' brain cells in schools, its effect on social interaction, potential to eradicate artists and real people jobs and taking over our brains, and the indistinguishable physical avatars we can have in the metaverse. PLUS, his new DEI Standard-aligned project that is FASCINATING fodder for (and potentially at odds with?) the Cancel Me, Baby philosophy.

We got the brains, body, bimbo trio of the new action flick SHEROES in the house today. First half, join me with Wallis Day (Sex/Life) and Sasha Luss (Anna) followed by Isabelle Fuhrman (Orphan) in half two. From strip teases to manning firearms, consider them your new sheroes. TGIF*ck yeah.

The Titanic submarine search captivates the nation. Elon Musk literally challenges Mark Zuckerberg to a cage fight. Joe Rogan riles up RFK Jr, Aaron Rodgers, and Mark Cuban. Aside from an average tax bracket, what is missing from this picture.......

PART 2: Our panel picks up where we left off as Caitlyn and Chris dive into disability as its portrayed in our culture and the mainstream, under the "diversity" buzzword. They both acknowledge the PC antics can be ridiculous and, as Chris put it, "inclusive language is hilarious." ('Cus it is.) But how do entities like the Olympics miss the mark? Why does Hollywood always have to victimize them? Did Kim Kardashian's SKIMS get it right? Do they feel like a punchline? A quota? Does the inclusivity of it all go too far? Enjoy part 2 and be sure to stick around for the behind-the-scenes chat at the end.

PART 1: Ain't no quotas here at Cancel Me, Baby. This is the honest conversation we deserve. Pop culture and advertisers are really proud of themselves for railing "representation" in our heads so much so that we've heard the word more than our own thoughts. But how do people on the other side of it actually feel? Namely, ones with disabilities? I'm joined by two badasses, who happen to be friends and Cancel Me, Baby fans, to find out. Chris Koch (@ifican.chriskoch) was born with partially developed limbs, is a Tedx and motivational speaker, and will happily screw with people who act weird around him. Caitlyn Pallas  (@caitlynpallas) is technically quadrapelegic, beat stage 3 lymphoma, and prefers the "JUST ASK, don't stare" approach when she's in a wheelchair. So I ask the questions you want to know answers to. Is "disability" even the right word? Are they put in some kind of box? Can people around them lighten up? And so much more.

ATTENTION, LADIES: not sure if you knew this, but you're a victim exploited by men at all costs whether you like it or not, OK? Glad we're clear! But seriously, Hollywood, the media, and the internet's obsession with victimizing powerful women has gotten out of control. Rachel Bilson lost a job for saying she likes being "f*cking manhandled" (no you don't, it promotes toxic masculinity!), and Lily-Rose Depp defends her highly controversial show "The Idol" that Rolling Stone called "torture porn" and the internet called a "grotesque rape fantasy." My question is: have any of these people actually talked to a woman... or listened to the ones here? Our culture's "progressives" have turned into the conservatives they mock, and you all can get snipped like The Weeknd's rattail for boxing women in as far as I'm concerned.

My most personal episode yet. Ep 200 of Cancel Me, Baby shot exactly one year to the day since I began the physical and mental transformation journey of a lifetime. With cultural extremes on all ends dictating image, acceptance, standards, and boxes, this is MY story. Live-action footage included and all, Operation: Sex Goddess Body has landed. And we're just getting started.

Maybe I'm just so tired of seeing young girls half naked on Instagram, that middle-aged celebs doing it is a breath of fresh air! Either way, we're taking a break from the heavy political scene today to dive into the very pressing question: Why is everyone getting naked?! It's a Hollywood trend that I'm not sure I even have the answer to, but the journey, the speculations, and the visual aids are fascinating, nonetheless. 

No virtue signaling detected here. This striking new social commentary is the real deal. Entering the chat is BAFTA Winner Laya DeLeon Hayes, star of the SXSW-selected horror film "The Angry Black Girl and Her Monster." A chilling "Get Out"-like commentary on urban culture and black-on-black violence, the film depicts the modern black experience inspired by Mary Shelley’s original “Frankenstein." Laya talks about how it feels taking on the iconic Frankenstein role as a woman, her real thoughts on the "angry black person" stereotype and white folks navigating these convos behind the scenes, and her experience as a young black woman with black history and integration versus generations prior. Get your mad scientist hats on and check it out in theaters on June 9 and on demand June 23.
