We’re back! This week, Annie takes us on a journey to learn about the history and origins of patriarchy, and asks the question- can a world without patriarchy really exist?

This week, Chloe leads us on a journey of learning about Playboy founder Hugh Hefner. Was he actually as bad as he first appears? Well, yes! But he was also a surprisingly staunch advocate of a number of social justice issues, including civil and gay rights. Throughout this journey we will be taking minor detours to hear about Chloe’s champagne problems, Annie’s struggles with Chemistry, and a high school trend that never actually existed.

Annie takes us through the tragic (yet very iconic) tale of Mata Hari, the woman falsely accused of espionage and treason against France during WWI and one of the most infamous victims of being “woman’d.” Because, as it turns out, a woman shaking ass can be responsible for the shortcomings of an entire nation. Also this week, Chloe and Annie exercise their superior intellect in finally figuring out the difference between the Dutch, Danish, and Norwegians.

The girls are back to drop another Hot New Bombshell into the villa.

This week, Annie does the hilarious and haunting work of surfing the annals of the Manosphere to take us inside the Incelosphere. Annie imparts on us knowledge of phrases such as "roping," "looksmaxxing," and "black pilling," terms which are, shockingly, not just invented by teens. From the humble and not-so-bad beginnings of the men's rights movement to the black-and-green text that adorns today's Incel Wiki, join us while we take a peek inside the minds of the men who can't get laid.
