34 min - Back off the GOAT
Simone Biles is the greatest gymnast of all time. So why did she withdraw from some of the events in the Tokyo Olympics? And why are right wing pundits calling her a shame to the country? Spoiler alert: we disagree.

35 min - Vicky's Secret
Victoria’s Secret is dropping the angel wings to try to sell clothes that appeal to women instead of men. Will it work? We also discuss the latest major “Karen” who broke down in a New Jersey Victoria’s Secret.

- Mature Minors and Muzzles in the Mail
It’s almost never good when we make national news, and last week was no exception. Tennessee’s top vaccine expert was fired for pointing out existing law - the “mature minor doctrine.” We chat about why she was let go and what we make of this law.

- Pointlessly Gendered
We hope whatever device you’re using to listen in this week is the appropriate color (either pink or blue). Also possibly scented if you’re a lady. We’ve all seen products that are just for men or just for women. But does it get silly? And does gendering products have a financial impact?

About That Other F Word
From the publisher's feed
Rynn Young and Katrina Vargas take back the word "Feminism" one episode at a time. Feminism isn't a bad word! It just means people shouldn't be treated differently because of genetics. Using current…
events and personal experience we analyze the perceptions of feminism. We even get male perspective from our producer, Mitch Wheeler for optimal transparency.
