What the Manosphere Gets Right - And Wrong

In this episode, Charis Alura explores the unsettling and complex world of the manosphere. Sparked by Netflix’s powerful and disturbing miniseries Adolescence (SPOILER ALERT), Charis unpacks the roots of male anger, the appeal of red-pill ideology, and the heartbreaking reality of boys and men growing up without strong masculine role models. With vulnerability and nuance, she shares personal reflections on bullying, self-worth, attraction, and gender roles—drawing connections between modern disempowerment, ancient primal instincts, and societal shifts away from toxic patriarchy. This episode is both a critique and a call for compassion, understanding, and a new model of strength for men.
