Venting Sesh

Surprise! Last session was a two-parter! This week I ask tough questions like: What does "race" mean? Are all psychopaths killers? Is the f-word really that bad? and more. Since this is the first double digit episode, I decided to give you double the minutes. So get comfy, cause we're gonna be here for a while.

After a month long hiatus, your favourite host is back to share some of my hot takes! There are a lot of thoughts circulating my mind on a regular basis. This session, I consider topics ranging from desensitization to violence, western conceptualizations of childhood, MURDER, and so much more. I have truly missed talking to y'all for 20 minutes straight, let's hope you missed listening.

There is a lot to cover in this week’s session all about the economic system that I’m sure everyone has an opinion about. After all, it’s hard not to think about capitalism when it dictates so much of our lives. Learn more about its history, why it’s problematic, and how to navigate it as an occupant.

Where are my Muslim characters? It's a question I asked myself four years ago, when we were hardly showing up on the big screen. That's all changed now, but is it for the better? This session I discuss the gross misrepresentation of Muslims, why it happens, and what we can do about it. So listen to the episode, vibe it, really really dig on it, and then, remember that feeling.

We all know that if you have nothing nice to say, you shouldn't say anything at all... But what if "nice words" can also cause harm? We get into it this session where I consider the Model Minority: what it means, where it comes from, and how it's a myth. Replenish your mind with knowledge on the plight of Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders.

Choose your fighter in this session where I discuss an array of female archetypes. I dive into all “kinds” of girls from the Bruh girl to the Home-wrecker, and consider how internalized misogyny contributes to these reductive characters. Take your pick from the selection and see which stereotype best describes your singular, static personality!
