How well do you know your man... osphere?

from This Week in Breeders Podcast · host Sarah Wheeler

Man oh manosphere. Odds are, you’ve heard that there’s a wildly popular Louis Theroux documentary on Netflix these days, one where the extremely British documentarian spends an ungodly amount of time with prominent reactionary dude influencers. Garrett watched it, Sarah didn’t, so join along as he takes her on a journey through a strange world of washboard abs, one-way monogamy and, well, some of the worst imaginable opinions and actions. The big question: Do we really need to spend time with these guys? Or is there a more interesting story right outside the frame.LINKS!* A very good video about youth travel baseball. * Official Netflix site for the Theroux documentary.* Oops! Garrett snuck in Lindy West discourse into the episode. Here’s some important background, here’s Garrett’s piece, and here’s our bonus episode on polyamory and moving to the Midwest. * You definitely shouldn’t take the “female delusion survey” we referenced in the episode but here it is. * Some smart thoughts from Andi Zeisler and her teenage son (Salon).* A good review from Lucy Mangan in the Guardian. * H20 Just Add Water: An Australian show about mermaids and also a real estate developing dad who finds his heart (A Sarah recommendation? Maybe?).* Too many people (Garrett included) have opinions about the fox and bunny’s relationship in Zootopia 2. More:* This Week In Breeders is a podcast!
