Nail Tech Encapsulates LIVE Animals In Acrylic Nails

Hi all, today we're talking about a nail technician big on Instagram and Tiktok who, horrifically, encapsulated live frogs, ladybirds and ants inside her acrylic nails and mishandled mice as part of her social media content. This type of mistreatment of animals is never ok and can never be excused as just 'art' so today we're going to talk about it.

Matt Walsh and His Creepy Views on Consent

In today's episode I'm talking about Matt Walsh, an American right-wing political commentator. Recently I found some of his older videos which express incredibly concerning views around consent, children and child marriage and I think we need to talk about it.

The Most Insecure Men on Youtube

Insecure, emotional, not smart enough - call it whatever you like but these three from the Reality Check Podcast had no idea how to hold their own in a conversation with someone intelligent and they let themselves get too angry and over-emotional. Here's what happened. Plus let's start taking bets now: How long before a bunch of their fans get mad about the title and tell me to just 'debate them, bro'?!

The Saga of Paul and Morgan

A quick note on the title of this episode:I feel very conflicted about using the title ‘The Saga of Paul and Morgan’ for this video because I didn't want to use that word anymore - Saga. I’ve been worried in the past that it makes it sound too much like this is all a fictional story and stops people seeing the subjects as real people. But I also feel like Paul and Morgan have been posting for such a long period of time, there have been so many twists and turns and ‘eras’ in their content, and that their online content has become such an ingrained part of who they are that it really feels like the most appropriate word here which is why I’m comfortable using it this time but with the disclaimer that I don’t want you to forget that these are real people and please be considerate of their feelings.

The Whatever Podcast Is Rotting Men’s Brains

Today we're responding to the Whatever Podcast - one of the worst and cringiest podcast where men attempt to 'debate' women about relationships and feminism, despite most of them not having a clue what they're talking about. Today we're fact checking them and calling out a lot of this nonsense. Their behaviour is so embarrassing for them.Sources and Further Reading: https://worldanimalfoundation.org/advocate/bear-attacks-statistics/https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC4484276/ https://www.thehastingscenter.org/news/gender-affirming-care-for-cisgender-people-qa-with-theodore-schall-and-jacob-moses/ https://code-medical-ethics.ama-assn.org/ https://www.gmc-uk.org/professional-standards/the-professional-standards/good-medical-practiceThe Women’s Day Off / The Long Friday: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/magazine-34602822 https://www.futurelearn.com/info/courses/a-global-history-of-sex-and-gender/0/steps/168422 https://www.unwomen.org/sites/default/files/2024-11/femicides-in-2023-global-estimates-of-intimate-partner-family-member-femicides-en.pdfhttps://www.unodc.org/documents/data-and-analysis/statistics/crime/UN_BriefFem_251121.pdf https://data.unicef.org/topic/child-protection/female-genital-mutilation/ https://www.who.int/news/item/09-03-2021-devastatingly-pervasive-1-in-3-women-globally-experience-violence https://rapecrisis.org.uk/get-informed/statistics-sexual-violence/ https://www.womankind.org.uk/resource/a-femicide-factsheet-global-stats-calls-to-action/ https://www.girlsnotbrides.org/about-child-marriage/where-child-marriage-happens/ https://www.worldbank.org/en/news/press-release/2022/03/01/nearly-2-4-billion-women-globally-don-t-have-same-economic-rights-as-men https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/8008535/ https://papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.cfm?abstract_id=4314192 https://www.reuters.com/article/fact-check/derogatory-poster-shows-misleading-statistics-about-children-with-same-sex-paren-idUSL1N31Z2TZ/ https://www.healthline.com/health/womens-health/childbearing-age Books: Modern Misogyny: Anti-Feminism In A Post-Feminist Era - Kristin J.

The Most Dangerous Pickup Artist On Youtube: Jack Denmo

Today we're taking a deep dive into the content of Jack Densmore, Jack Denmo, or just Denmo as some people know him. He originally started out as a prank and "interview" channel and has slowly got worse over the years - today I'm asking, how is he still even allowed on Youtube?

Penelope Douglas Is Completely Unhinged

Well, this may be one of the worst books I've ever read it's 'Corrupt' by Penelope Douglas, the first book in the 'Devil's Night' series and it's so awful - poorly written, nonsensical, has awful characters and is just a complete mess.
