This F***ing Guy!

On this episode, Ren decides to celebrate Autism Awareness month by talking about a group that hates autistic people, but, don't worry, that feeling is mutual. Autism Speaks is known for the blue puzzle piece, being obsessed with curing autism, and producing films that make autism out to be the bubonic plague and the Zodiac Killer combined. Ableism: the true conspiracy theorist. Featuring the penultimate verse of Mr. Brightside, the menacing aura of the Duolingo owl, and grown men being upset about Disney World.

On this episode, Ginger recalls two wars humans declared on birds and subsequently lost. First, the Emu Wars of Australia, where the military sent two machine guns to wipe out 20,000 birds the size of Tom Cruise with the same energy. And, like a real life cartoon, it goes about the way you expect. Second, the time when Maoist China declared war on sparrows, took it way to seriously, and millions died from starvation. Basically, the moral of the story is don't f*** with birds. Featuring the benefits of buying secondhand birds, Ren's lifelong feud with a parrot, and the odds of Ginger winning in a fistfight with an infant. Bonus: DJ and DJ Sr. making way too much noise.

On this episode, Ren and Ginger wonder aloud if the best part of waking up is fascism in your cup. Black Rifle Coffee Company is supposed to sell coffee, but what they really sell is "owning the libs" to guys whose entire personality is "GUNS!" Unfortunately, when you package your product in American flags and assault weapons in order to cater to military LARPers and right-wingers, the other circle in this already terrible Venn Diagram includes mass shooters and Nazis. Triggered, yet? Featuring Matt Gaetz federal sex trafficking takes, whether doing cocaine is too gay, and yet another term Ginger has to explain to her dad. Citations at thisfnguypod.com.

On this episode, Ginger returns to her roots: true crime, bad science, and sexual predators. We're talking about Richard Gardner, child psychiatrist and man who was definitely subscribed to TheRedPill on Reddit, whose name was recently dropped in HBO's "Allen V. Farrow" docuseries. Gardner was the brain behind "Parental Alienation Syndrome," a thing that is definitely not real but still managed to use in order to ruin lives for decades. This is definitely a Vodka Cranberry (hold the Cranberry) kind of episode. Featuring Ren's new favorite serotonin-boosting TV show, Destiel becoming canon, and the eternal reminder to stop comparing your hurt feelings to the Holocaust. Citations at thisfnguypod.com. 

CW: child physical and sexual abuse, domestic violence, divorce, suicide, misogyny

On this episode, Ginger discusses another historic inventor who was weirder (and worse) than you thought. Alexander Graham Bell is well known as an American icon for his invention of the telephone, despite the fact that he was Scottish and lived mostly in Canada. What's less known is his party trick of fisting his dog's mouth, dating and marrying his teenage student, and--oh yeah--all the ableism and eugenics. Happy Deaf History Month! Featuring a Monty Python reference, the ethics of masturbating to Space Jam, and the revelation that Ren and Ginger don't know anything about President James A. Garfield.

On this episode, Ren talks about the very recent phenomenon of burning down entire ecosystems in order to learn the shape of your unborn child's genitals. Gender reveal parties are only about 10-12 years old, a pre-pubescent sh*tbird that's composed entirely of gender stereotypes and capitalism. But, who cares about undermining the gender binary when there's cake involved, I guess. Mazel tov! Featuring Ren's terrible college roommate, Laverne Cox as our gender guardian angel, and the best compliment anyone's ever received. Citations at thisfnguypod.com.

On this episode, Ginger returns to her favorite subject: terminally horny historical figures. Victor Hugo is most well known for 'The Hunchback of Notre Dame' and 'Le Miserables', two very sad stories that became hugely popular musicals that Ren sings while in the shower. He was also a noted poet, an outspoken statesman, and a giant pervert who kept a secret f*** diary. Truly, la vie boheme. Featuring live bats, all things French (tm), and a world united by the desire to be stepped on by a ten-foot-tall vampire lady. Citations at thisfnguypod.com

On this episode, Ren reminds us about the Golden Rule: The Internet doesn't forget and it doesn't forgive. Not-yet-expelled Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Green clearly did not learn this lesson. Racist Facebook memes, harassing school shooting survivors, calling on her followers to storm the Capitol back in 2019: it's been a whirlwind for this Crossfit wine mom on her first month at the job. Who knew that calling for the death of your coworkers would come at the performance evaluation? Featuring apologies to 2000s pop icons, handcuffing the devil, and, of course, Jewish space lasers.

Welcome to the 50th episode of TFNG! As a special treat, Ginger is gonna make this so weird! We're talking intactivists, a very niche corner of the internet, which is claims "No Foreskin, No Peace." Unfortunately, this group also overlaps with men's rights activists, incels, and the other cool internet kids, all with a healthy dose of--what else?--antisemitism. Featuring crusty pasta nipples, clitoris envy, and another term Ginger has to explain to her parents. Citations at thisfnguypod.com.

On this episode, Ren takes us through the worst American Girl book, starring Kelly Lynn Loeffler, a woman who really wants you to forget she owns a castle. From her humble farm girl origins, to her and her husband owning the New York Stock Exchange, all the way to her (thankfully) brief Senate career, this is a story of "More Conservative Than Attila the Hun" Barbie© who won Homecoming Queen seven years in a row and definitely did not support the conspiracy theories that led to a violent insurrection attempt. Featuring a Clueless reference, catering by Maggiano's, and Apple Jacks, the cereal of Marxists. Citations at thisfnguypod.com.
