But stay with us because, for the first time in a long time, it does not go the elitist CEO's way. 

Why Do We Defend Indefensible Men?

WHY DO WE KEEP DEFENDING INDEFENSIBLE MEN!? Melanie Hamlett is back to answer that question. Both hosts made the seemingly TERRIBLE mistake of saying we shouldn't romanticize the relationship of a rockstar who literally tried to kill his wife. However, he is just one of many famous men who have committed atrocious acts and still received a pass. Buckle up as we get back to our feminist roots.

The Insane Plane Drama

In a time when the FAA faces funding cuts, massive workforce layoffs, and a shortage of air traffic controllers, hearing about near collisions between massive 747s and B-52 bombers is shockingly not shocking. However, for today's episode, we're focusing on viral stories that occurred inside the plane. And while the plane may be soaring at heights of 30,000 feet, the audacity is cruising even higher. 

The Hubslife Rebrand Betrayal

In a world of influencers and hustle culture, it's easy to feel like living an "average" life just isn't enough. But one creator sought to change that. He was promoting and celebrating the nine-to-five life. His motto was to normalize the norm. He made people feel seen, and that led to him "seeing" a follower count closing in on 1,000,000. But what happens when the "9-5" creator decides to ditch the life he has promoted and become the very thing he built an audience railing against? You are about to find out.
This is the story of the Tiktok creator Hubslife. 

The Experimental Submersible & The Certifiable Ceo

With all of the documentaries that recently came out about the implosion of the Titan Submersible, we've learned a lot of information. However, many questions still remain. The main question being... How did this happen? The answers lie with the Founder of Oceangate Stockton Rush. Some say he's a genius, others say he's just a privileged narcissist with a god complex. What's undeniable is that he had all the information to KNOW for certain this sub would fail, and he still chose to go down that day. In this episode, we're breaking down the facts, the theories, and hopefully figuring out why this man may have done what he did.

F*** Unethical Hot Air Balloon Guys!

When I heard that hot air balloon companies were landing in my friend's backyard without her permission, I decided to make a TikTok about it to get some answers. I wanted to know who was doing it and how we could get them to stop. Little did I know that my video would get millions of views, unearth the unethical practices of hot air balloon companies, and end in the police getting involved.
But no... it wasn't me that called the police.
The Hot Air Balloon company (whom I still have not named) CALLED THE POLICE ON ME! And that's just one example of their unhinged behavior. 
 
Buckle up, friends, I am dropping all the messages and receipts. 
 
And a HUGE shout out to the Do We Know Them Podcast for featuring my story! Make sure to check out episode 251 - Hot Air Balloon Company Exposed. 

We Need to Talk about How White Women Are Often The "Nice Guys" Of Women

NOTE: This week's episode may not be easy to listen to, and it may make people uncomfortable. But it's important. If we want to unpack our misogyny, we must also unpack our racism. Please listen with an open mind and heart. 
 
Recently, a creator called the White Woman Whisperer made a video about how white women are often the "nice guys" of women. While this may be hard to hear, in the episode, we break down why it's quite accurate. 
 
Our guest this week is Jamila Bradley, an incredible creator, activist, and proud person of color who was criticized after posting a video about the Met Gala. And these attacks weren't coming just from strangers. They were coming from the very women who called themselves allies. These white women were happy to engage and support Jamila's feminist content. But the second Jamila brought race into the conversation, these "allies" became adversaries. A feeling all too familiar for Jamila and other people of color.

We'll discuss what it looks like, why it's happening, and what we can do to make sure we don't fall for these anti-women viewpoints disguised in pretty packaging.
