So. The crusty orange rapist won again. Now what?

Sarah and Adam record a new episode after a too long hiatus to discuss the 4B movement, how to stop interacting with men at all to stay safe, screening out men who voted for the bloated shitstain, and how to retain your bodily autonomy in a society where women have been relegated to second-class citizens. 

We also don't know what we're going to do about the podcast. Is it the end? Lis...

Who would you rather encounter in the woods, a man or a bear? This question has proven controversial for many men in the world (and rather simple to answer for most women, overwhelmingly choosing the bear).

It's official - women don't need men. They can buy homes, get bank accounts, and live happy, fully satisfied lives without men getting in the way, and men don't like it.

Should crusty "alphas" with unwashed asses start to worry? 

Also this week, Adam and Sarah talk about their lives since Fe...

This week, Adam and Sarah will talk about types and why men and women approach them differently. Also in this episode, a call about dating anxiety from a listener, Sarah explore...
