Hi. Cristen Conger (@CristenConger), host of the Unladylike podcast, joins Katy and Cody to talk about the Respect For Marriage Act, the newly-uncovered text messages from Republican representatives about the 2020 election, the redpilling of Elon Musk, and the fusion breakthrough that's a legitimate piece of some good science news. Also: There was an issue with Katy's audio this week, so we had to use her audio from the Zoom recording. It's a little lower quality than usual, so thank you for bearing with us!

Hi. Those Republicans sure are hypocritical, aren't they? In this episode, we take a look at some of the many things they are hypocritical about, and analyze what that says about who they are and what they really believe.Note: During a brief discussion of Gamergate in this video, we accidentally used the wrong pronouns to refer to Zoë Quinn, who uses they/them pronouns.

Hi. Fascism has been on our minds lately and it looks like it's been on Ben Shapiro's as well. But, in looking through Shapiro's writing, he seems pretty confused about what fascism is, who is promoting it, when he doesn't like it, and when he totally does.

Hi. In today's episode, we look at the similar patterns followed by nearly all moral panics, whether they're about teenagers eating Tide Pods or nonsense stories about litter boxes in school restrooms.
