Davis and Shirin Sadeghi sit down with journalist Amanda Marcotte, a senior politics writer at Salon and the host of "Standing Room Only," a weekly show about culture and current events available on YouTube.This week's discussion: the "tradwife" phenomenon and the rise of influencers like Hannah Neeleman of Ballerina Farm who are selling nostalgia for pre-20th century gender roles. Why is this happening now? Who is the target audience? And are women persuaded by content that encourages them to abandon their careers for a life raising kids on the farm?And are "tradwives" even real? Marcotte and the hosts discuss Vice President JD Vance and his wife, Usha, and whether their relationship is actually traditional or just a performance.https://www.patreon.com/c/CriticalSupport
