”Great in the Sack”: When Misogyny Leads to Mayhem

Don’t let the name of the podcast fool you...it’s a passive-aggressive poke at the way women seem to be viewed by society: expendable objects to be utilized and quite literally ended, if a perpetrator so chooses..that’s the message that I GET from the lack of action over the entire world, within our societies to protect women and girls. Let’s face it: femocide is on the rise. If you’re anything like me, then you know how important it feels to witness the stories within these cases. To be able to identify patterns of misogyny in our own lives is empowering and can also make us feel more prepared. We will be discussing crimes that include honor killings, intimate partner violence, war crimes, anti-abortion violence..all things caused by misogyny. My hopes are to educate everyone on a safer society because EVERYONE lives in society. I’m neurodivergent af and am doing this podcast alone. Sometimes episodes are late, but i’m doing my best to get them out every other week!

  ​"Throw reason to the dogs..": Gender Apartheid and the Erasure of Afghan Women, pt.1

  Jul 9, 20261h 14mS1

  We’ve all seen those viral internet photos from the 1960s and ’70s, amiright? Afghan women in mini-skirts…walking freely in the streets. But what do those photos actually say…who actually got to experience that level of freedom? ​In Part 1 of our deep dive into Afghanistan, we are going back into history. We track who holds power at what time periods, and which way the pendulum swings according to those two things: more towards freedom…or rural uprising? From the rise of ancient tribal codes all the way through to the very beginning of the Taliban’s rise, we talk about what all this meant for women all over Afghanistan. ​Along the way, we discuss the different groups of people living in Afghanistan, Islam & Sharia Law, and the ways women have shown resistance throughout different time periods. Both episodes, part 1 and 2, will take a look at how misogyny, class divides, and anti-intellectual populism at the hands of the Taliban has affected Afghanistan, and the women living there.

  Ep. 18 - The Evolution of Exploitation: The cases of Marita Verón & Kristen Galvan

  Jun 16, 20261h 10mS1

  Human trafficking has a long history. It began with what we know as slavery, but as the world changed, the structure of exploitation evolved to fit that environment. When most people think of modern sex trafficking, they might pictture the movie Taken, where a victim is physically snatched off a public street by strangers...and in real life, it can look exactly like that. But thanks to the things like social media, it has also adapted. Decades ago, the internet existed, but it wasn't literally in our pockets, and the predatory behaviors of social media apps hadn't yet been born.               In this epi...
