Introduction and Reflections on 2022
00:00:06
Speaker
What's up, queens?
00:00:07
Speaker
Welcome to the Female Dating Strategy Podcast, the meanest female-only podcast on the internet.
00:00:12
Speaker
I'm Ro.
00:00:13
Speaker
And I'm Savannah.
00:00:15
Speaker
And we've made it to the end of 2022!
00:00:20
Speaker
Can you believe it?
00:00:21
Speaker
It's gone so quick.
00:00:22
Speaker
Wow.
00:00:23
Speaker
It feels like a lot has happened, but nothing has happened this year.
00:00:26
Speaker
Everything and nothing happened at once.
00:00:28
Speaker
Yeah, I think it's that first proper like post-COVID year where life is starting to get returned to normal for most people.
00:00:37
Speaker
That was just a bit, 22 was a bit like, eh, but.
2022 Best and Worst Events
00:00:40
Speaker
And some of us are stumbling through life confused as fuck, which we're going to talk about in this week's episode, which is the 2022 best of and worst of.
00:00:48
Speaker
The best of and worst of.
00:00:50
Speaker
To be fair, this year was genuinely, it was hard to pick a winner for each category, which again, goes back to what I said.
00:00:56
Speaker
It feels like everything and nothing happened this year.
00:00:59
Speaker
So many lowlights, so many lowlights to choose from.
00:01:04
Speaker
Really just a lot of people out here embarrassing themselves.
00:01:07
Speaker
Legit, straight up.
Pick Me Hall of Shame
00:01:09
Speaker
So introducing the first category, we have the pick me hall of shame.
00:01:14
Speaker
This was a crowded category, to be fair.
00:01:17
Speaker
This is a crowded category, right?
00:01:20
Speaker
So let's read off the nominees.
00:01:23
Speaker
Alexandra Hunt, who was a congressional candidate that basically said that men should have a right to sex in the most pick-me way possible as well.
00:01:34
Speaker
We did a whole episode on her.
00:01:36
Speaker
We have the millennial BDSM kink Mishas who are going around shaming particularly young women for not being...
00:01:45
Speaker
into BDSM and finding it abusive and basically calling out all the issues with it.
00:01:51
Speaker
You see these people, primarily they hang out on Twitter because I think that Gen Z, is it Gen Z, like the younger generation?
00:01:57
Speaker
Yeah, Gen Z. Yeah, Gen Z, like Gen Z TikTok is generally quite base.
00:02:02
Speaker
Like the younger women are really, really, they're being very critical of the narrative surrounding sex.
00:02:08
Speaker
And they're getting a lot of pushback from millennials who don't like the fact that they are exercising their judgment and critical thinking skills in relation to sex.
00:02:18
Speaker
We've got Chris Evans fans who were devastated, devastated that he didn't tell them that he was in a relationship.
00:02:26
Speaker
Yeah, they wrote an open letter and started harassing everybody.
00:02:30
Speaker
We did this in our bonus content about Chris Evans fans.
00:02:33
Speaker
Yeah, that was wild, to be fair.
00:02:36
Speaker
And apparently they felt like they were covering for him because he had some unsavory behavior with interns, allegedly.
00:02:42
Speaker
So they were like, they're creating campaigns to defend him.
00:02:46
Speaker
So I'm like, yeah, you just took a horrible L there because he's going to keep dating people and not telling you.
00:02:52
Speaker
Like, he's clearly not going to be honest to you in the public, but yeah.
00:02:54
Speaker
Yeah.
00:02:55
Speaker
And then we had the Deptford wives.
00:02:57
Speaker
These were the women who were defending Johnny Depp during the trial earlier this year.
00:03:05
Speaker
And so, do you want to announce the winner, Ro?
00:03:07
Speaker
All right.
00:03:08
Speaker
The winner is... Drum roll, please.
00:03:14
Speaker
Deptford Wives!
00:03:15
Speaker
I feel like there was no contest here.
00:03:17
Speaker
They were the biggest pick-me's all year.
00:03:19
Speaker
It had to be the Deptford Wives.
00:03:21
Speaker
And there are a number of reasons why.
00:03:22
Speaker
Like, the first one is just the damaging, damaging narratives that were coming out of their mouths.
00:03:29
Speaker
I know that there were so many professionals who work with abused women who were just coming out with the most victim-blaming stuff.
00:03:38
Speaker
And the worst part is, is that, you know, they were defending actions that they themselves had been through.
00:03:43
Speaker
And some of them were then actually subjected to the same victim blaming that they were dishing out to Amber Heard.
00:03:49
Speaker
So it was like, you know, don't believe Amber, even though she had a lot more evidence than, you know, most victims would have.
00:03:57
Speaker
And her stories, they were corroborated and consistent from the start of their relationship.
00:04:02
Speaker
But then, you know, there was a prominent Deptford wife who came out and said that this guy abused me.
00:04:08
Speaker
And then she was basically met with all the victim-blaming vitriol that she'd been dishing out to Amber.
00:04:13
Speaker
And she still somehow managed to blame Amber Heard for it.
00:04:15
Speaker
She was saying, this is why it's Amber Heard's fault that I'm not being believed.
00:04:19
Speaker
I'm like, no, you're not being believed because you're spreading the damaging victim-blaming narratives.
00:04:24
Speaker
So we're dealing with smooth brains here because I wish I had sympathy for them, but I don't.
00:04:29
Speaker
These have to be the most...
00:04:32
Speaker
insane group of women we've encountered in quite some time.
00:04:34
Speaker
Like they were showing up outside the courthouse.
00:04:37
Speaker
They were throwing things at Amber Heard.
00:04:40
Speaker
They were obsessively boycotting or writing a bunch of letters to the makeup company of the makeup that Amber said she used.
00:04:49
Speaker
They were slandering like...
00:04:51
Speaker
Judges who had ruled against Johnny Depp making up really, really easily disproven lies about them.
00:04:59
Speaker
The funniest thing was, is when they all crowdfunded like $3,000 to get documents unsealed, and it came out that Johnny Depp is like a walking STI, STD, HBV flag.
00:05:10
Speaker
Yeah.
00:05:11
Speaker
They spent thousands of dollars of their own money to unseal some court records from Johnny Depp, only to find out that everything that Amber had said was likely true.
00:05:20
Speaker
That he's abusive, he's a drunk, he's on drugs, he's full of STDs, he's got erectile dysfunction, and he's a pathological liar.
00:05:28
Speaker
So...
00:05:31
Speaker
L upon L upon L. So Depford Wives, you won this category in a landslide.
00:05:37
Speaker
In a landslide.
00:05:38
Speaker
And we have to give a special mention to Alexandra Hunt because her thread was just unhinged.
00:05:44
Speaker
But luckily, she did not get anywhere near the halls of power.
00:05:49
Speaker
The level of delusion either of Depford Wives, right?
00:05:53
Speaker
Alexander Hunt's pretty delusional, but I feel like the entire internet descended upon her to correct her very faulty idea.
00:06:02
Speaker
Depford Wives had like international support
00:06:05
Speaker
And what's wild about it is like some of these women who came forward and were trying to meet with Johnny Depp and you can just see, I'm like, he's not gonna like, he's not gonna
Scroats Mad Category
00:06:14
Speaker
fuck you, sis.
00:06:14
Speaker
You know what I mean?
00:06:15
Speaker
Like you can see a lot of them were just like older women who had a crush on him.
00:06:18
Speaker
I'm like, he's clearly dedicated to dating much younger women.
00:06:21
Speaker
So you're doing all this work to defend a man who wouldn't piss on you if you're on fire.
00:06:25
Speaker
And he would probably actively insult you and call you fat because a lot of these women, you know, they're not Amber Heard, so to speak.
00:06:32
Speaker
And look at the way he treated and spoke about her.
00:06:35
Speaker
Exactly.
00:06:35
Speaker
So just pathetic all around.
00:06:38
Speaker
Be ashamed of yourselves.
00:06:39
Speaker
Deptford Wives are our 2022 winners of the Pickney Hall of Shame.
00:06:43
Speaker
Pickney Hall of Shame.
00:06:45
Speaker
Well deserved.
00:06:46
Speaker
What's the opposite of a round of applause?
00:06:48
Speaker
Boo!
00:06:49
Speaker
That's what I want to give a boo.
00:06:53
Speaker
Boo!
00:06:53
Speaker
We need to like pipe that in.
00:06:55
Speaker
A chorus of boos, tomatoes and cabbages.
00:06:57
Speaker
Boo!
00:06:58
Speaker
Boo!
00:07:01
Speaker
So the next category is the Scroats Mad category.
00:07:05
Speaker
Again, this one is kind of like tricky because you could literally have thousands of entries.
00:07:12
Speaker
When aren't they mad is the question.
00:07:14
Speaker
Yeah.
00:07:14
Speaker
And I'm starting to see as the conversation, the general conversation around gender dynamics, heterosexual relationships are starting to shift to be more FDS aligned.
00:07:25
Speaker
Like they're just becoming more and more pissed about, you know, women and their standards and what they're saying about them.
00:07:30
Speaker
But here we've just picked out a few memorable ones.
00:07:34
Speaker
So the first one is the hate that women who work white collar jobs get.
00:07:39
Speaker
So this one came about because on TikTok, there's been a few female TikTokers who have basically documented their daily life.
00:07:46
Speaker
So they're living in a nice city, they have a nice apartment, and they're just walking people through like, this is where I work, which is usually a really, really nice
00:07:54
Speaker
building, it's got all sorts of perks, they're working in tech most often.
00:07:59
Speaker
And the comments from men are just so salty.
00:08:05
Speaker
It's ridiculous.
00:08:07
Speaker
They're very, very angry at women having employment.
00:08:10
Speaker
Having employment and being paid well and who are in good jobs, they have a massive problem with that.
00:08:16
Speaker
The thing about it is they might not even be paid well.
00:08:19
Speaker
The men are just mad because of the perceived class privilege.
00:08:23
Speaker
And I'm like, there was nothing stopping you from going to college and not fucking around at school and getting that job if you wanted to.
00:08:29
Speaker
except for like your grades, your patience, your ability to work well with others, the ability to dress professionally, speak to people with intelligence, interact with people in a productive way, your ability to start a project and see it through to completion, your ability to read and write, do math.
00:08:45
Speaker
Let's keep going, right?
00:08:47
Speaker
Like they're really mad because they feel like these women have easy jobs, but even though these jobs are supposedly easy, they can't get them.
00:08:53
Speaker
Yeah.
00:08:54
Speaker
And they clearly have a certain way of life as well.
00:08:56
Speaker
So these women are, you know, living in nice places.
00:08:59
Speaker
They have a nice routine.
00:09:00
Speaker
Yeah.
00:09:01
Speaker
Good for them.
00:09:02
Speaker
It's really like pathetic because of it really ramped up when Elon Musk bought Twitter.
00:09:07
Speaker
Right.
00:09:08
Speaker
And then they were all celebrating and rejoicing that a lot of the women they felt didn't deserve jobs in tech were going to be
00:09:14
Speaker
kicked out for, I guess, greasy, bad-built men with no social skills who can just sit down and code all day because that's what it takes to run a company according to Scrotes.
00:09:24
Speaker
So that's the first nominee of what Scrotes were mad about this year.
00:09:29
Speaker
Off the back of the book, I actually snuck in an additional entry.
00:09:32
Speaker
So this was the rise of lonely men and the reaction from men when people tried to suggest, go outside, make friends, volunteer, do something for your community.
00:09:44
Speaker
And they just hated that.
00:09:46
Speaker
Absolutely hated that.
00:09:48
Speaker
Yeah, skirts are mad at suggestions to improve their lives all year.
00:09:52
Speaker
Yeah.
00:09:55
Speaker
Basic suggestions to improve their lives, like wash their ass, brush their teeth.
00:09:59
Speaker
Go outside.
00:10:01
Speaker
Go outside.
00:10:01
Speaker
Breathe fresh air.
00:10:03
Speaker
Don't watch porn all the time.
00:10:06
Speaker
watch less porn you know things that just help a normal individual become healthy happy and productive they were very upset that people suggested that they not do those things that people dared to suggest it and just generally that the way that they were angry that women weren't really at least on twitter anyway that women they weren't prepared to shoulder the burden of trying to sort out lonely men which is what these men want they were mad at that too
00:10:31
Speaker
So the next entry is when the Scroats were mad at a young woman not wanting to date older men.
00:10:37
Speaker
So this came about, it was a viral tweet from a 22-year-old woman on Twitter who said that men over the age of 25 are basically old and washed out and she's got nothing to say to them because they're too old for her.
00:10:48
Speaker
And men in their 30s and 40s were pissed at that, basically.
00:10:52
Speaker
Yeah, the scrotes are mad at women not wanting to date men significantly older than them, so... Yeah, and then the final one is the, again, the sort of links back to the millennial BDSM scrotes and kink Mishas, is the rise of, I guess, the backlash...
00:11:14
Speaker
Men mad that Gen Z women don't like their porn addicted BDSM abusive sex.
00:11:19
Speaker
When Gen Z women set a boundary that they were tired of older men who wanted to be their quote, daddy dom hitting on them.
00:11:26
Speaker
These groats had a fucking meltdown on Twitter, which we talked about in our bonus content.
00:11:31
Speaker
Like to the point of like calling them conservative, calling them backwards, you know, saying they're not progressive, even though being progressive doesn't always mean, you know, not all progress is good progress, so to speak.
00:11:44
Speaker
But yeah, they were really, really mad at that.
00:11:46
Speaker
All right.
00:11:47
Speaker
So who's the winner of our Scroats Mad category for 2022?
00:11:50
Speaker
It is Lonely Ass Men.
00:11:58
Speaker
Dive ads growth, been mad all year and taking zero of our suggestions about how to improve yourself.
00:12:04
Speaker
And just taking no responsibility.
00:12:06
Speaker
And, you know, loneliness isn't only, isn't just something that affects men as well.
00:12:11
Speaker
It also affects women, but it seems like women seem to either accept it or they will create spaces where they can meet other women and bond with them on a deep level.
00:12:23
Speaker
Men don't want to do this with each other.
00:12:25
Speaker
And it's just the whole, I think for me, the reason why they win this category by far is that they're mad at something that is, you know, for the most part within their control to fix and something that is their responsibility.
00:12:37
Speaker
Like society doesn't owe you a relationship.
00:12:40
Speaker
It doesn't owe you friends.
00:12:42
Speaker
You have to go out and seek those and develop and nurture them.
00:12:45
Speaker
That's the way it works.
00:12:47
Speaker
Yeah.
00:12:47
Speaker
And it's been interesting because, you know, the media has done a lot of coddling in the past of men like this being like, we have to figure out what's going on with them psychologically.
00:12:57
Speaker
And I am seeing a slight turn towards fuck these guys.
00:13:02
Speaker
Like they're just assholes from the media because they're realizing that a lot of these men are just lame and entitled and they're not victims.
00:13:08
Speaker
Yeah.
00:13:08
Speaker
So meaning even the men who are lonely and then go on like a shooting spree or complain there or do something like, you know, that causes harm to others because they're lonely.
00:13:17
Speaker
It's their fault.
00:13:18
Speaker
Right.
00:13:18
Speaker
And no one cares.
00:13:19
Speaker
It's like, here's all the things you need to do to improve that.
00:13:22
Speaker
And they want to do zero of it.
00:13:23
Speaker
So, you know, die mad.
00:13:24
Speaker
Like I said.
00:13:26
Speaker
Cool.
00:13:27
Speaker
What's our next category?
00:13:30
Speaker
We have the male depravity category.
Male Depravity Nominees
00:13:32
Speaker
Again, a crowded field.
00:13:34
Speaker
This is where we took our fishers net and then just really dragged the bottom of the ocean floor here to pick up all the rest of the gunk.
00:13:42
Speaker
The human gunk.
00:13:43
Speaker
And basically re-traumatized ourselves in the process.
00:13:48
Speaker
So the nominees for this category are... Number one, the Comtab guys.
00:13:54
Speaker
what is i don't know what that is okay so the cum tub guy was the guy we did in our thanksgiving roaster's growth if you want to go back and listen to that one it's the man who had the rice purity score and was just probably the most singular disgusting human just physically mentally socially everything that i think we've gotten on our roaster's growth thus far
00:14:16
Speaker
Yeah, that was grim.
00:14:17
Speaker
I mean, there was just 100% 360 disgusting scrote.
00:14:22
Speaker
And the cum tub story was, actually, I won't reveal the cum tub story.
00:14:26
Speaker
Go ahead and listen to that episode because it's pretty gross.
00:14:29
Speaker
Yeah, and that comes with its own trigger warning.
00:14:31
Speaker
In fact, this whole section, sorry, comes with a massive trigger warning, by the way.
00:14:35
Speaker
The next nominee is The Murder Kink.
00:14:38
Speaker
So this one came from a popular BDSM subreddit where a woman was rightfully concerned that the man she just married had been sexting another woman, cheating, red flag number one, and in those sex he was
00:14:52
Speaker
talking about how he planned to basically massively violate her and kill her as a kink.
00:14:59
Speaker
People in the comments then piped up that having a murder kink is totally normal and it doesn't mean that the person is actually going to kill anybody.
00:15:08
Speaker
I'm personally not willing to take that risk.
00:15:10
Speaker
So I actually reported this post and the people in it to the FBI.
00:15:15
Speaker
Whether or not the FBI have actually done anything about it, I don't know.
00:15:18
Speaker
But this is how serial killer stories start.
00:15:20
Speaker
Like, legit.
00:15:21
Speaker
Like, it is not normal to sexually get off to killing people.
00:15:25
Speaker
And I just have to put that in there because I'm just like, if it's got to be, like, the ultimate depraved fantasy is murder.
00:15:32
Speaker
Like, that's the end game, right?
00:15:34
Speaker
And you were talking about this on your Twitter quite a bit.
00:15:36
Speaker
So at Savannah underscore FDS.
00:15:38
Speaker
Yeah, so we'll pop the link to the stories and the property for you to peruse at your leisure.
00:15:43
Speaker
But yeah, again, trigger warning because that shit just massively disturbed me.
00:15:48
Speaker
So FYI, all of our nominees are from anywhere in the FDS universe that we've talked about this year.
00:15:54
Speaker
So between our Twitter accounts, the Instagram, the website, the Reddit, what else?
00:15:59
Speaker
Discord, the Patreon, etc.
00:16:02
Speaker
So this is like, this is the FDS universe.
00:16:06
Speaker
So the next nominee is a scrote who called the police on a woman he went to work with.
00:16:12
Speaker
Roger, do you want to explain this one?
00:16:14
Speaker
Okay, so this is the video that went viral of the man who went to the police station to report the father of a woman that he had been harassing.
00:16:23
Speaker
He had been trying to play her a song that he likes and she kept running away from him.
00:16:27
Speaker
And so he goes to the police station and says, I'm here to report harassment because the girl's dad called him and said, if you come near my daughter again, I'm going to kill you.
00:16:35
Speaker
And then the police basically looked at him like, oh, sounds like you're the problem because you're quite literally stalking her down.
00:16:41
Speaker
And then he says, no, I think she's the problem because I'm just trying to show her my song.
00:16:45
Speaker
And I feel like a father is threatening me and it's a violation of my rights.
00:16:48
Speaker
And then he goes on a manifesto right after that, after he leaves the police station and talks about how there's a woke agenda to turn her into a lesbian.
00:16:56
Speaker
So like she's already a lesbian.
00:16:58
Speaker
So basically it's this like really creepy man.
00:17:00
Speaker
So this was blowing up on all of pretty much all of media because everybody was like, what the actual fuck?
00:17:05
Speaker
And even the cops who are not known for being particularly sensitive on domestic violence issues looked at this guy like he was fully crazy.
00:17:12
Speaker
So collective what the fuck for that guy.
00:17:15
Speaker
Yeah.
00:17:16
Speaker
Fuck.
00:17:18
Speaker
Incel.
00:17:18
Speaker
Yeah.
00:17:19
Speaker
Next, we have the sex offender who Vice tried to humanize.
00:17:24
Speaker
So this is like another mic drop moment in the media's failure to convince me in particular that sex offenders can be rehabilitated, even though they keep trying for reasons unknown.
00:17:35
Speaker
So Vice did a documentary about the lives of sex offenders who leave prison, who have to register and try to reintegrate into society.
00:17:42
Speaker
And they tried to make it seem like a very sympathetic documentary.
00:17:45
Speaker
And then at the end, they revealed that this guy sent them a bunch of dick pics.
00:17:49
Speaker
So they tried to make it a very sympathetic story.
00:17:51
Speaker
They basically demonstrated why he should have no sympathy for these fuckers.
00:17:55
Speaker
Yeah.
00:17:55
Speaker
So Vice created a documentary centered around men who were leaving prison for sex offenses.
00:18:02
Speaker
And what they did is they documented how hard it was for them to find a place to live and how to get a job and how hopeful they were for their future.
00:18:10
Speaker
So at the conclusion of the documentary, this guy is like, I have all the hopes for my futures.
00:18:15
Speaker
I feel like society doesn't want me to get back reintegrated into society.
00:18:19
Speaker
And I
00:18:20
Speaker
At the end of it, Vice does a mic drop moment where they revealed that the men actually sent them dick pictures.
00:18:25
Speaker
So it's like they keep trying to humanize these men who are sex offenders.
00:18:30
Speaker
And he just turns out to be a disgusting skirt like the rest of them.
00:18:34
Speaker
And proves why they should stop being so sympathetic towards them.
00:18:37
Speaker
So the final entry is the pedo PhD.
00:18:42
Speaker
So this one refers to a PhD student who is currently studying at the University of Manchester called Carl Anderson, who spent three months recording his thoughts and feelings as he was masturbating over images of young boys in Japanese comic books.
00:18:57
Speaker
So that was his research study.
00:19:01
Speaker
Ro and I did a bonus content on this.
00:19:04
Speaker
And in the show notes, there are three articles that just go from like bad to extremely disturbing, like lock him up bad.
00:19:12
Speaker
So that's who the pedo PhD is.
00:19:15
Speaker
listen to that episode because basically his dissertation was only scratching the surface of his depravity.
00:19:21
Speaker
Like he has evidence of him sexualizing young boys dating back 10 years.
00:19:28
Speaker
So we were sitting there wondering how he even got into college in the first place, giving that all this is public.
00:19:32
Speaker
Yeah.
00:19:33
Speaker
So the winner anyway of.
00:19:35
Speaker
Drum roll.
00:19:36
Speaker
A male depravity 2022 is.
00:19:42
Speaker
Pedo PhD, hands down, disturbing individual.
00:19:46
Speaker
It has to be.
00:19:47
Speaker
And the thing that is doubly disturbing is how many people must have known.
00:19:52
Speaker
Like he's got a PhD supervisor.
00:19:55
Speaker
His, the research study that involved him masturbating to images of young boys had to go through a ethics committee.
00:20:02
Speaker
It had to go to an editorial board who published it, but they took it down due to backlash.
00:20:08
Speaker
The University of Manchester must have known about his pedophilic tendencies.
00:20:12
Speaker
And that's what's doubly disturbing about it.
00:20:14
Speaker
But it's also representative of a growing movement that is trying to reframe paedophilia as another sexual orientation.
00:20:22
Speaker
So minor attracted persons as well.
00:20:25
Speaker
Yeah, absolutely disgusting, Scro.
00:20:27
Speaker
Check out the bonus content we did on that and you'll be 100% convinced you should have won.
00:20:33
Speaker
On patreon.com forward slash the female dating strategy.
00:20:36
Speaker
Okay.
00:20:37
Speaker
So our next category, queen shit moment.
Women in Education and Iran Protests
00:20:40
Speaker
Queen shit.
00:20:41
Speaker
So these are all the queeniest moments of the year.
00:20:45
Speaker
First one being women overtaking men in college enrollment.
00:20:50
Speaker
So this basically goes back to a statistic that says that more women are enrolled in college and are more likely to graduate than men.
00:20:58
Speaker
And once again, men or society have tried to frame that as a massive problem that is damaging to society as opposed to thinking, well, maybe men are just not wanting to go to college or maybe they're just lazy or they're just not getting in or women are just better.
00:21:13
Speaker
Yeah, we're just better.
00:21:14
Speaker
They just need to accept that.
00:21:15
Speaker
Boys go to Jupiter to get more stupider.
00:21:17
Speaker
Girls go to college to get more knowledge.
00:21:19
Speaker
The prophecy foretold.
00:21:21
Speaker
Yeah.
00:21:22
Speaker
And it's interesting that, you know, education was literally basically built and designed by men.
00:21:27
Speaker
They've not had a problem with it.
00:21:28
Speaker
The only time they have a problem with it is when they're literally being beaten at their own game.
00:21:31
Speaker
That's when they realize it's not fair.
00:21:33
Speaker
We have fulfilled the prophecy, ladies.
00:21:37
Speaker
Next queenship moment, Ketanji Brown Jackson.
00:21:40
Speaker
Being nominated to the Supreme Court.
00:21:43
Speaker
Yes.
00:21:44
Speaker
Being the first Black woman on the Supreme Court is a pretty big deal.
00:21:49
Speaker
Yeah.
00:21:50
Speaker
So basically, they're there till they're dead.
00:21:51
Speaker
They don't retire.
00:21:54
Speaker
They can retire.
00:21:54
Speaker
Plenty do retire before they die.
00:21:56
Speaker
It's about most of them retire before they die, but I think it's about 50-50.
00:22:00
Speaker
So, okay.
00:22:02
Speaker
Sometimes they die in office, but that's a choice.
00:22:05
Speaker
They can retire.
00:22:07
Speaker
They can resign at any time.
00:22:09
Speaker
So basically, do some of them do the strategic game?
00:22:12
Speaker
Because I know there were people who were saying that Ruth Bader Ginsburg should have resigned.
00:22:16
Speaker
Was it during Obama's term so he could elect a new one?
00:22:20
Speaker
Yeah, a lot of them, if they think they're going to retire, I mean, they're supposed to be nonpartisan, but it's... They must be partisan.
00:22:27
Speaker
It's not possible to be.
00:22:29
Speaker
They're supposed to be nonpartisan.
00:22:30
Speaker
It's been more and more partisan, I think, in recent years, or blatantly partisan without a whole lot of pretense behind it.
00:22:37
Speaker
But it's kind of random when they retire.
00:22:39
Speaker
I think it's just when they probably when they get sick or they just get tired of it or they're older or whatever.
00:22:44
Speaker
Yeah, so she's on our queenshit moment.
00:22:47
Speaker
Our third queenshit is a combination of women who spoke out against abuse this year.
00:22:53
Speaker
So Amber Heard, Megan Thee Stallion, Constance Wu, and Jeanette McCurdy.
00:22:58
Speaker
And they got so much hate and backlash as well.
00:23:02
Speaker
Yeah.
00:23:03
Speaker
I think like, no, I think it's good to make them a collective because all of their experiences, whilst they're so different, the reaction has just been very, very similar.
00:23:10
Speaker
And it just goes to show that these women are really sticking their head above the parapet for speaking up, especially speaking up about the abuse they were subjected to in the industries that they're in as well.
00:23:22
Speaker
Because that could literally be career ending for them.
00:23:25
Speaker
And, you know, for some of them, it will be.
00:23:27
Speaker
Yeah, so entertainment stars who spoke out against abuse this year.
00:23:30
Speaker
And even Britney as well can be added to that.
00:23:34
Speaker
Yeah, Britney could also be in that category.
00:23:37
Speaker
Last category, the women of Iran.
00:23:39
Speaker
The women of Iran have completely and totally started a revolution.
00:23:44
Speaker
So the women of Iran have been protesting since around September of this year because of the murder of an Iranian woman named Masa Amini, who was killed in custody of the guidance patrol in Tehran due to police brutality because she was not wearing her hijab.
00:24:00
Speaker
So the police, of course, lied about how and why she died, but her body was discovered and it was quite battered.
00:24:07
Speaker
So the women of Iran decided to tear shit up.
00:24:10
Speaker
They've been doing a protest that's now been ongoing since then.
00:24:13
Speaker
So it's been ongoing for months at this point, demanding that the Iranian government, like practically trying to overthrow the Islamic Republic, but definitely the morality police and assert their right to be able to live in public without having to wear masks.
00:24:27
Speaker
the hijab.
00:24:28
Speaker
So they are going ham right now against their government.
00:24:32
Speaker
And it's very brutal because people, there's been several women who have been abducted, they've died, they've been beaten by the morality police, been disappeared by the government.
00:24:42
Speaker
So they are extremely, extremely brave and fighting for their right to exist.
00:24:47
Speaker
So drumroll please, who won this queenship moment?
00:24:53
Speaker
Women of Iran.
00:24:54
Speaker
Has to be.
00:24:55
Speaker
Not even close.
00:24:56
Speaker
Has to be women of Iran.
00:24:57
Speaker
I think any women or any group of people who are brave enough to go up against an entire social order within their country, particularly a social order that is so hostile to them as a group, they have my deepest respect because that's not an easy thing to do.
00:25:13
Speaker
Yes.
00:25:13
Speaker
So kudos to the women of Iran.
00:25:16
Speaker
Very brave.
00:25:17
Speaker
And we wish them all the success in the world.
00:25:19
Speaker
We hope that.
00:25:20
Speaker
We wish them 100% success.
00:25:22
Speaker
And if there's anybody that's really plugged in to know what can be done on the Western end, that would be really great.
00:25:28
Speaker
Because right now there's been so much chaos that it's hard to figure out what's legitimate, what kind of initiatives people who aren't there physically can get behind.
00:25:36
Speaker
So let us know.
00:25:38
Speaker
Okay, our next category is... Male high value moments.
00:25:45
Speaker
So, again, this category, as usual, can be quite slim pickings, actually.
00:25:51
Speaker
Out of all the categories, it's one of the hardest ones to do, obviously, because...
00:25:54
Speaker
We also know that it can be hard to judge whether a male is high value just by looking at them.
00:26:00
Speaker
So we do this category with the disclaimer that this is not meant to be a statement on the whole man, but just an individual action that we deem to be high value.
00:26:09
Speaker
So the first one is Lord Justice Andrew Nicholl and with an honorary shout out to Lord Justice Dingmans and Lord Justice Underhill.
00:26:19
Speaker
So even though this didn't happen this year,
00:26:22
Speaker
What they did came to prominence because of the Depp-Herd trial.
00:26:25
Speaker
So, Law Justice Andrew Nicholl was the judge who presided over the lawsuit between Johnny Depp and The Sun.
00:26:32
Speaker
And he ruled that majority of Amber's claims of abuse that were documented in The Sun were substantially true.
00:26:40
Speaker
The reason why I would say he was high value in this ruling is because he clearly understood the impact Stevie had.
00:26:49
Speaker
So when Amber may not have had evidence or when sometimes her testimony didn't make sense, as opposed to saying she must be lying,
00:26:58
Speaker
Like, you know, most people said in the trial this year, he acknowledged that that is a side effect of DV.
00:27:05
Speaker
And he sometimes gave her the benefit of the doubt, but he was also critical of her as well.
00:27:10
Speaker
And this year he's just been absolutely slandered by jobless, ignorant Depp fans who were just making up the most like ridiculous shit about him to discredit his judgment.
00:27:21
Speaker
But the judgment still stands.
00:27:22
Speaker
And in the UK, we can still legally call Donnie Dipper White's beater.
00:27:25
Speaker
The other two Lord Justices, they were the ones who heard Johnny Depp's appeal.
00:27:29
Speaker
So when Johnny Depp lost the original trial against the Sun, he went to the High Court to appeal.
00:27:35
Speaker
And they basically said Johnny Depp is wasting their time because they upheld the original judgment and they didn't see anything wrong with how Lord Justice Andrew Nicol conducted the trial, basically.
00:27:46
Speaker
So...
00:27:47
Speaker
You know, when people say it was only Lord Justice Andrew Nichol, like who ruled that Johnny Depp was a wife beater because his son was, you know, like he worked for the newspaper, which is a complete lie.
00:27:58
Speaker
They don't acknowledge the fact that two other independent judges actually supported his ruling as well.
00:28:05
Speaker
So there's that.
00:28:06
Speaker
The next one we have is Alexis Ohanian, who is the partner of Serena Williams and former owner of Reddit.
00:28:15
Speaker
Did you want to speak on this one, Roe?
00:28:16
Speaker
So I don't know much about him.
00:28:17
Speaker
Yeah.
00:28:18
Speaker
So, OK, so we nominated him because we think that he's been consistently high value in defending his family as well as Serena from public attacks this year, specifically coming from people like Drake,
00:28:33
Speaker
Who once again is like, there's the rumor that Drake and Sreena used to date.
00:28:37
Speaker
So he's a particularly bitter ex, right?
00:28:39
Speaker
So he basically called out Alexis Ohani in a groupie and he stood and Alexis said, I absolutely am a groupie for my wife and child and I prioritize them and basically made Drake seem like a lame, which is a pretty big feat, right?
00:28:53
Speaker
Because Drake is extremely popular.
00:28:55
Speaker
So Alexis Ohanian managed to change the narrative for his wife and not let her be publicly harassed by scrotes by being unconditionally supportive and telling Drake basically that you're a dumbass and kind of pathetic and not really making moves out here.
00:29:11
Speaker
And he also supported her this year during her retirement.
00:29:14
Speaker
So...
00:29:15
Speaker
That's also like really important.
00:29:17
Speaker
She's making a really big life transition.
00:29:19
Speaker
So he's been out front and center supporting her desire to step away from tennis and letting her know, you know, obviously he still loves her and helping her transition to that period.
00:29:28
Speaker
So that's the type of thing that a good supportive partner does.
00:29:31
Speaker
So we thought we would recognize that.
00:29:32
Speaker
Yes.
00:29:33
Speaker
And then the last nominee in this category is the Iranian football team and men in Iran who are fighting against the Iranian public.
00:29:43
Speaker
So they were included because they went to the World Cup.
00:29:47
Speaker
They were knocked out, I think, in the group stages.
00:29:49
Speaker
But as a form of protest against what was happening or what's been happening in Iran, they actually didn't sing the national anthem.
00:29:57
Speaker
And there's now growing concerns about
00:30:00
Speaker
their safety when they return to their country because a politician came out and said that we won't allow anybody to insult our anthem, basically saying they're going to have to sing it.
00:30:10
Speaker
And I think especially because there has been a lot of controversy in general around Qatar and human rights,
00:30:16
Speaker
lots of football teams and especially when they banned players from wearing other bands that showed support for lgbt plus people the men in the iranian football team they actually took a very very public stand which was a lot more than other football teams were willing to do in solidarity with the women back home as well so our 2022 winner
00:30:40
Speaker
Iranian football team slash all the men who have stepped up to fight alongside the female protesters, right?
00:30:46
Speaker
Because now it's become bigger than just the hijab, but the hijab was obviously, and Masa Amini is obviously the person that kicked off the entire protest.
00:30:54
Speaker
But since then, like, you can see that men have really gotten behind supporting women in this movement and also questioning a lot of the authoritarian aspects of the regime.
00:31:04
Speaker
So, yeah.
00:31:05
Speaker
Yeah.
00:31:06
Speaker
And it's a tough crowd to do it on as well because the protesters in Iran were actually cheering the English football team because they didn't want Iran to advance in the World Cup anyway.
00:31:16
Speaker
So they were...
00:31:18
Speaker
Yeah.
00:31:19
Speaker
I mean, that's some gangster shit.
00:31:20
Speaker
Like they're really fed up, right?
00:31:22
Speaker
So imagine just like the ripple effects of seeing that woman be brutalized because she wasn't wearing a job and then all of the men stepping up.
00:31:28
Speaker
I mean, there's lots of video online of the morality police trying to snatch up women and then men running behind them and like punching the police in the face and stuff like that.
00:31:37
Speaker
So it's really intense there right now.
00:31:40
Speaker
And so seeing that there's a large amount of men who are willing to fall on the sword to make sure that women have the right to
00:31:47
Speaker
not be harassed and beat down by the police for not wearing hijab is inspiring.
00:31:52
Speaker
Once again, not a blanket statement on like all of their high-valueness or anything, but that's certainly commendable.
00:31:58
Speaker
All right, so back to the fun shit.
00:32:00
Speaker
I was gonna say, this is a- This is all the like depressing parts of like- We're getting just into the straight
Public Downfalls and Humiliations
00:32:06
Speaker
up roast now.
00:32:06
Speaker
The FGS barbecue is ready and lit.
00:32:09
Speaker
All right, so this is a category we invented this year.
00:32:11
Speaker
Biggest male humbling-
00:32:14
Speaker
Who got humbled the most?
00:32:15
Speaker
For whom did life humble that ass this year?
00:32:17
Speaker
It's a tough crowd to get.
00:32:20
Speaker
Okay, so we're just going to go through the names.
00:32:22
Speaker
First one, Kanye.
00:32:23
Speaker
We didn't get to talk about Kanye on the pod, but we talked about him on Twitter.
00:32:27
Speaker
But obviously, literally everything that's happened to him since he decided to come out as a virulent anti-Semite and is clearly a porn addicted scrote.
00:32:36
Speaker
It's come out that he was compulsively showing people porn that he was working with.
00:32:42
Speaker
Kind of lost his mind.
00:32:43
Speaker
So he's been kicked out of just about every...
00:32:46
Speaker
endorsement deal that he's had.
00:32:48
Speaker
So yeah, life's humbling the fuck out of him right now.
00:32:51
Speaker
He has a long history of being a scrote.
00:32:52
Speaker
So obviously his divorce from Kim Kardashian and his like, woe is me hating on Pete Davidson, just truly unhinged stuff that we don't even have time to go through all of it, but he's being humbled right now.
00:33:04
Speaker
So he's a one nominee.
00:33:07
Speaker
The next one is Bartice from Love is Blind.
00:33:11
Speaker
Yeah.
00:33:13
Speaker
Because this is the guy who thought he was hot shit.
00:33:15
Speaker
He got humbled by Raven.
00:33:17
Speaker
Got humbled by Raven, but really the entire internet.
00:33:21
Speaker
So right now he's being dragged to high hell because of his haircut and then thinking way too much of himself.
00:33:26
Speaker
So life is humbling the shit out of him right now.
00:33:28
Speaker
Nominee number three.
00:33:30
Speaker
Men on dated apps finding out they're ugly.
00:33:33
Speaker
Yes.
00:33:34
Speaker
So there's been a collective awakening of men right now figuring out like, oh, women can swipe right only on attractive men and swipe left on ugly men.
00:33:42
Speaker
And there's been a number of think pieces and articles coming out talking about how men aren't getting matches and aren't getting swipes that they thought they were attractive before then.
00:33:51
Speaker
So life is humbling a lot of men right now on dating apps.
00:33:54
Speaker
So they're our third nominee.
00:33:56
Speaker
The next one is Kevin Samuels.
00:34:00
Speaker
Kevin Samuels.
00:34:01
Speaker
He's dead.
00:34:04
Speaker
this is going to make me sound like a bitch, but I do not give a shit.
00:34:07
Speaker
Like when he dropped dead and everyone was like, you shouldn't wish death on people.
00:34:10
Speaker
I'm like, I'm not wishing, I didn't wish him to die when he was alive, but now he's dead.
00:34:15
Speaker
I'm not going to be sad about it.
00:34:16
Speaker
Like he was a dick and he was a misogynist, very, very anti-black,
00:34:21
Speaker
like very, very anti-woman.
00:34:23
Speaker
Like, I'm not going to be sad about it.
00:34:25
Speaker
And the worst part, well, the humbling part was he allegedly died the same way he said the average black woman would die anyway.
00:34:33
Speaker
He died alone in a hotel of hypertension because all he did was drink Red Bulls underneath a large overweight woman that he says is allegedly low value.
00:34:44
Speaker
So life humbled his ass.
00:34:45
Speaker
He died in probably the most embarrassing way possible of a heart attack,
00:34:50
Speaker
It wouldn't have been embarrassing if he hadn't been saying that, you know, women he found undesirable would die that way.
00:34:56
Speaker
Like, it just wouldn't have been, like, people die in those sorts of circumstances, but it's just the way that he said that other women would die that way.
00:35:04
Speaker
It's just, it's perfect karma.
00:35:06
Speaker
And alienated from his entire family, so...
00:35:09
Speaker
Another thing as well is that nobody really knew for like several days that it had to be like, you know, when it came on Twitter and it had to be confirmed over several days that he'd actually died.
00:35:18
Speaker
Like this goes to show that no one in that man's life really gave a shit about him.
00:35:23
Speaker
Yeah, and not to mention he was broken in debt and had no money to his name until he started to blow up, even just this past year.
00:35:30
Speaker
So he just got the money this past year.
00:35:32
Speaker
Even when he had his YouTube channel, he was pretty relatively unknown.
00:35:36
Speaker
Yeah, no, he had a ton of debt and apparently had zero money that he only started paying off his debt in the past year because he started getting endorsements and some noticing from mainstream media, like he was on a couple of different podcasts.
00:35:46
Speaker
And BET did a shout out to him in an in-memoriam, which no comment right now, but we'll put a pin in that.
00:35:52
Speaker
So yeah, so Kevin Samuels, dead as fuck and life did the ultimate humbling on him.
00:35:59
Speaker
So number five nominee?
00:36:03
Speaker
Boris Johnson getting kicked out by his party and his failed comeback.
00:36:08
Speaker
So this all went down this summer when Boris Johnson was finally, finally, finally removed from power.
00:36:17
Speaker
And the straw that broke the camel's back after things like Partygate, where he was fined for breaking his own lockdown rules, general incompetence.
00:36:25
Speaker
But the straw that broke the camel's back was that he appointed somebody to basically be as deputy chief whip.
00:36:33
Speaker
I believe his name was Chris Pinscher.
00:36:34
Speaker
A deputy chief whip.
00:36:35
Speaker
I'm not sure the American equivalent.
00:36:37
Speaker
It's like the whips of the party are the people who keep the party members in line, so tell them how to vote.
00:36:43
Speaker
I'm not sure what the American equivalent is.
00:36:44
Speaker
I guess it'd maybe be like a speaker, maybe.
00:36:47
Speaker
Yeah, maybe.
00:36:47
Speaker
Speaker, actually maybe speakers in the party.
00:36:49
Speaker
Anyway, so it was quite a senior position and Boris knew that Chris Pinscher had allegations of sexual assault that were made against him and appointed him anyway.
00:36:58
Speaker
So when the story broke,
00:37:00
Speaker
I think it was about 70 cabinet ministers out of like 169, they resigned.
00:37:05
Speaker
So the current prime minister, Rishi Sunak, he was the chancellor at the time.
00:37:13
Speaker
And he basically went first.
00:37:14
Speaker
And then over like the week that like resignations were coming out every hour.
00:37:19
Speaker
to the point where if your cabinet, if your chancellor goes, if your health secretary goes, then your political career as prime minister is untenable.
00:37:26
Speaker
And Boris tried to hang on for dear life, but his support within the party basically collapsed.
00:37:32
Speaker
And what was really humbling about it was that that was exactly what he did to Theresa May, the previous prime minister.
00:37:38
Speaker
He engineered it so he would get her kicked out in the same way.
00:37:43
Speaker
And then less than three years later, it happened to him.
00:37:45
Speaker
His failed comeback, it came about...
00:37:47
Speaker
as a result of the recent leadership contest.
00:37:50
Speaker
So after Boris resigned in summer, Liz Truss was elected prime minister.
00:37:55
Speaker
She lasted like 45 days and then she had to resign the same way.
00:37:59
Speaker
So the way the Tory party leadership election works is that each candidate has to secure at least 100 votes.
00:38:08
Speaker
from all the MPs in the party.
00:38:10
Speaker
So they need to get 100 MPs, at least 100 MPs, to vote for them before they make it onto the ballot, which then goes to the party membership.
00:38:18
Speaker
So when the news came out that Liz Truss had resigned, Boris was on holiday somewhere, I think the Caribbean.
00:38:24
Speaker
He comes racing back because he thinks that, yeah, I can come back.
00:38:28
Speaker
Like, this is my chance to...
00:38:30
Speaker
It's my time to shine.
00:38:32
Speaker
There's my time to shine.
00:38:33
Speaker
And those idiot, there were idiot MPs in the party basically bigging him up saying, you know, welcome back boss.
00:38:38
Speaker
You know, we need you and all that jazz.
00:38:40
Speaker
So he came back on the Friday and the deadline to get the hundred MP threshold is Monday.
00:38:46
Speaker
So then on the Monday, it became apparent that he hadn't got the a hundred MPs needed to get on the ballot.
00:38:54
Speaker
And neither did the other candidate, Penny Morden, which is why Rishi Sunak won by default, because he got the most MPs to back him.
00:39:01
Speaker
So, but Boris framed it like, I've decided to step back, but the reality is he didn't get the numbers to get on the ballot.
00:39:08
Speaker
So his comeback was a failure.
00:39:10
Speaker
So yeah, that was a humbling moment for Boris.
00:39:13
Speaker
Kicked out by the same way he used to get Cameron and Theresa May removed, and his comeback was a complete failure.
00:39:20
Speaker
Uh, next one, Ned from Try Guys cheated on his wife and the entire crew kicked him out.
00:39:27
Speaker
So you guys are Try Guys fans.
00:39:30
Speaker
And then I want to do honorable mention to Alex Jones, who got a almost $1 billion verdict against him.
00:39:37
Speaker
How is he going to pay that?
00:39:39
Speaker
He can't.
00:39:40
Speaker
Like, he was already... First of all, he's been deplatformed pretty much everywhere.
00:39:43
Speaker
But in addition to that, he owes his ex-wife a lot of money and also former employees.
00:39:47
Speaker
So he's broke as a joke.
00:39:49
Speaker
He has no money.
00:39:50
Speaker
He's probably just going to declare bankruptcy and hopefully fade into obscurity.
00:39:55
Speaker
Alex Jones got humbled to the tune of $1 billion this year.
00:39:57
Speaker
That's why he's trying to, he's desperately trying to hang on to any type of attention or relevancy to keep getting money because of the judgment against him on behalf of the Sandy Hook victims for whom he incited a bunch of violence against and basically said they were faking their grief, which is insane on so many levels.
00:40:14
Speaker
So, all right.
00:40:15
Speaker
So the winner of this category is Kevin Samuels.
00:40:22
Speaker
Can't get any more humbled than dead.
00:40:23
Speaker
Yeah.
00:40:26
Speaker
Can't get any more humbled than dead.
00:40:28
Speaker
Ultimate L. Ultimate life L. So L, it's a D. As in death.
00:40:33
Speaker
As in you're dead as fuck, so... He's dead.
00:40:37
Speaker
Dead, dead, dead.
00:40:39
Speaker
Most of these guys have years for a redemption arc, although we are hoping that it never comes to fruition because...
00:40:45
Speaker
It never comes to them.
00:40:47
Speaker
Yeah.
00:40:48
Speaker
But yeah, it's over for him.
00:40:49
Speaker
Game over.
00:40:50
Speaker
Pack it up.
00:40:51
Speaker
Take your ball and go home.
00:40:53
Speaker
Game over.
00:40:56
Speaker
All right.
00:40:56
Speaker
So our next category, this is actually our final nomination category.
00:41:03
Speaker
All right.
00:41:03
Speaker
So for this last category, we're going to call it the biggest clown show in the circus.
00:41:15
Speaker
Who is an absolute fucking fool this year?
00:41:19
Speaker
Again, crowded field.
00:41:22
Speaker
Crowded field of nominees here.
00:41:23
Speaker
So we're just going to run through the names.
00:41:25
Speaker
Nick Cannon for having 11D3 babies and not taking care of none of them.
00:41:29
Speaker
And honorable mention to his girlfriend who won't even ask him for a nanny or can't even ask him for a nanny.
00:41:35
Speaker
Him not throwing checks her way to take care of a nanny.
00:41:38
Speaker
Has he got no money?
00:41:40
Speaker
He's got money.
00:41:40
Speaker
I think he's, well, he might not have any now because he has 11 kids, but he has, he should have enough to pay for a nanny and childcare.
00:41:47
Speaker
So second nominee, Elon Musk for literally everything, like dropping some random twins off this year with a woman he worked with, taking over Twitter, becoming like this massive right wing troll.
00:42:00
Speaker
For doing 50-50 with Grimes, even though he's a literal billionaire.
00:42:04
Speaker
So having to buy Twitter at a massive loss to himself.
00:42:08
Speaker
The guy's a danger to himself.
00:42:10
Speaker
Yeah, a danger to himself.
00:42:11
Speaker
It's a pretty intense L because you just can't.
00:42:13
Speaker
You're addicted to trolling people on Twitter.
00:42:15
Speaker
Number three, Johnny Depp.
00:42:17
Speaker
It's like, where do we start with him?
00:42:19
Speaker
Oh.
00:42:19
Speaker
for looking like a washed up course with no talent, having his, well, this is technically his fault, but having his fans exposed, his ED, STI riddled, HPV, basically a walking, you know, safe sex, like flag for the fact that he's looking more and more like a corpse each day.
00:42:38
Speaker
The fact that he tried to launch a music career alongside Jeff Beck, it was a total failure because he can't sing.
00:42:45
Speaker
yeah and i think the biggest time with johnny depp is that if he hadn't had taken the son to court all those years ago nobody would have really because no one takes the son that seriously anyway but he sort of took them on and got exposed in the process so yeah clown clown so uh next nominee 40 year old neat that was from our bonus content
00:43:08
Speaker
A man who wrote a cautionary tale about his life.
00:43:11
Speaker
You'll have to check out that bonus content.
00:43:12
Speaker
But essentially, he just didn't do anything whatsoever with his life for 40 years.
00:43:16
Speaker
So his tale of woe is quite interesting.
00:43:19
Speaker
Basically, he thought he was like a secret genius with no evidence and thought someday his life was just going to magically work out without him having to put out effort.
00:43:26
Speaker
So absolute clown, 40-year-old neat from our bonus content.
00:43:30
Speaker
Next one is Kanye again.
00:43:32
Speaker
Kanye deserves to be on here twice.
00:43:35
Speaker
It's like, there's so much Kanye news.
00:43:37
Speaker
The fight with the apparel companies, the divorce of Kim Kardashian, the wild, insane anti-Semitism.
00:43:45
Speaker
He's out here looking crazy as fuck every day.
00:43:47
Speaker
Every day, the man looks crazier than the day before.
00:43:49
Speaker
So absolute clown.
00:43:51
Speaker
Just a cavalcade of public embarrassment.
00:43:54
Speaker
This is a man who I almost think has an embarrassment fetish.
00:43:57
Speaker
Then he went on Twitter and started talking about how all the men that Kim had sex with in their marriage, including NBA star Chris Paul, just dragging everybody else's name through the mess.
00:44:08
Speaker
He's been spilling tea on Twitter and Instagram.
00:44:11
Speaker
He said that ASAP Rocky cheated on Rihanna.
00:44:13
Speaker
Just...
00:44:14
Speaker
Straight up, every day is a different piece of drama with Kanye.
00:44:18
Speaker
And he has no shame and no sense of embarrassment to shut his fucking mouth.
00:44:21
Speaker
So he's also one of our nominees for Biggest Clown in the Circus.
00:44:26
Speaker
We had honorable mention runner-ups, Adam Levine, Ezra Miller, Alex Jones for their bullshit this year.
00:44:32
Speaker
I'm the winner.
00:44:37
Speaker
Elon Musk.
00:44:39
Speaker
Has to be.
00:44:40
Speaker
He took an L to the tune of like $45 billion and then just kept taking L's with how we treated the workforce.
00:44:46
Speaker
Like when they all walked out, he's there begging them to come back.
00:44:50
Speaker
Clown.
00:44:52
Speaker
Trying to get people to pay $8 for Twitter.
00:44:54
Speaker
He's still not going to be enough to recoup his loss.
00:44:56
Speaker
And it's pretty embarrassing right now to the extent that he's trying to put on a public brave face when he's clearly losing money.
00:45:04
Speaker
That's partially why he had to fire everybody because he way overpaid for Twitter, can't really afford it, had to take a loan, and is probably not going to recoup his money back on there because advertisers are leaving.
00:45:13
Speaker
And yeah, so he's especially a big ass clown.
Significant Losses and Community Growth
00:45:17
Speaker
Okay, so we have a couple of in memoriams for this year.
00:45:22
Speaker
One of them is Chris Rock's jaw for Will Smith slapping the taste out of his mouth.
00:45:26
Speaker
Yeah.
00:45:28
Speaker
And his pride as well.
00:45:30
Speaker
Yeah, and his pride.
00:45:32
Speaker
So, in memoriam to Chris Rock's pride and Lower Jaw Half.
00:45:37
Speaker
Also, Roe v. Wade.
00:45:38
Speaker
So, we didn't know quite where to put this, but it feels weird to not talk about it on the worst of this episode.
00:45:45
Speaker
So, Roe v. Wade was overturned in the United States this year.
00:45:48
Speaker
There's been a patchwork of laws being enacted at the state level to protect abortion rights.
00:45:53
Speaker
Obviously, we urge everyone...
00:45:55
Speaker
who is listening to get involved in making sure that abortion rights are the law of the land in their state because it's dangerous.
00:46:03
Speaker
And not even in just America, but I think with Roe versus Wade, it set a precedent around the world, even in the UK, where we take for granted the fact that abortion rights have never been part of a political manifesto for a long time because we just assume that it's a right.
00:46:19
Speaker
But when Roe versus Wade was overturned, that emboldened people to have that discussion again.
00:46:25
Speaker
So even if you're not in the US, even if you're in a so-called liberal country, you know, we as women, we still need to be cognising of the fact that our rights are unfortunately not guaranteed.
00:46:34
Speaker
At least they won't be guaranteed until we have, you know, female dominated, you know, parliaments and, you know, senates and whatever.
00:46:42
Speaker
Yeah.
00:46:42
Speaker
And to finish my earlier thoughts so people know where I was going, I was going to say that Roe v. Wade is dangerous not to have because it's dangerous to women to not have abortion rights because abortion is healthcare.
00:46:54
Speaker
Just wrapping up that complete thought.
00:46:56
Speaker
Okay.
00:46:56
Speaker
So our last one, male work ethic.
00:46:59
Speaker
In memoriam.
00:47:01
Speaker
In memoriam.
00:47:02
Speaker
They've given up.
00:47:03
Speaker
We've recently done several bonus episodes on the decline of men in the workforce, but we are seeing just a general decline.
00:47:10
Speaker
It seems like the more women talk about the gender dynamics and relationships, the more it comes out that men genuinely believe that they are entitled to everything for nothing.
00:47:23
Speaker
Whether that's from their job, whether that's from society, whether that's from women, the general gist is that they genuinely feel aggrieved when you ask them to put in any ounce of effort.
00:47:32
Speaker
even if those efforts will actually benefit them as well.
00:47:36
Speaker
Yeah.
00:47:37
Speaker
So RIP the male work ethic, it seems that they're just basically giving up.
00:47:42
Speaker
It's had its heyday.
00:47:43
Speaker
It had its heyday back in the 1950s when men went to war or had to go to war.
00:47:47
Speaker
And now they don't.
00:47:48
Speaker
It's just, yeah.
00:47:49
Speaker
All right.
00:47:50
Speaker
And now for a couple of FDS highlights.
00:47:52
Speaker
We had some big changes in the FDS sphere this year.
00:47:56
Speaker
So we obviously left Reddit, our hashtag Brexit.
00:48:01
Speaker
The subreddit is no more.
00:48:02
Speaker
I mean, the subreddit is minimally open, I guess.
00:48:06
Speaker
But we've moved operations over to the website and people are engaging on the website.
00:48:12
Speaker
So...
00:48:13
Speaker
Check it out.
00:48:13
Speaker
Thefemaledatingstrategy.com forward slash forum.
00:48:16
Speaker
Don't regret leaving Reddit, by the way.
00:48:18
Speaker
Like, it's just kind of shit.
00:48:20
Speaker
I feel like there's a lot of people that are still mad about it.
00:48:23
Speaker
But I'm also like, I haven't seen anybody attempt to recreate what we did because it's very difficult.
00:48:30
Speaker
It's very difficult and it's just not worth all the hours and just knowing that anything you write belongs to Reddit and you can get banned at a moment's notice.
00:48:40
Speaker
It's just not really worth it.
00:48:41
Speaker
The website is a much better place for discussion.
00:48:45
Speaker
And it leads nicely into the next one highlight is the launch of the blog.
00:48:48
Speaker
You know, one of the things that makes FDS stand out is
00:48:53
Speaker
from other, I guess, female-only spaces is a strategy and insight, you know, section.
00:48:57
Speaker
So when we had the subreddit, the mods got overwhelmed.
00:49:00
Speaker
I used to be a mod on it and it didn't leave us enough time to actually write original content.
00:49:06
Speaker
And I know that made me quite sad because I like doing that.
00:49:09
Speaker
I like writing thoughtful think pieces.
00:49:12
Speaker
And even when you did write something insightful, you could just get trolled by angry scroats or pick me's if it made it into a certain subreddit or wherever.
00:49:21
Speaker
But on the website, we now have a functioning blog and the blog posts that have been posted so far are just, yeah, it's OGFDS and it's RSpace as well.
00:49:31
Speaker
And then we can talk about our favorite episodes this year.
00:49:33
Speaker
So far, I really liked the Janna Matthews episode.
00:49:36
Speaker
Did you have a favorite episode?
00:49:38
Speaker
The one with Janna Matthews is the one we did on fraternities and sororities.
00:49:40
Speaker
Okay, so we've had a lot of people request more information or discussion about how to date on college because dating during college is hard mode.
00:49:49
Speaker
So we brought her on and I thought she had done a lot of research and it was really good and informative.
00:49:54
Speaker
Yeah.
00:49:55
Speaker
What was your favorite episode?
00:49:58
Speaker
Um...
00:50:01
Speaker
That's a good question.
00:50:02
Speaker
I would probably say, I'd probably say the roast of Johnny Depp, the Brexit episode, because it was fun to get Tupac in there.
00:50:10
Speaker
Tampon King.
00:50:12
Speaker
Tampon, oh my god.
00:50:13
Speaker
Yeah, actually that one, Lilith and Rose, a voice acting of Charles and Camilla was on point.
00:50:19
Speaker
I died.
00:50:19
Speaker
Yeah, Tampon King episode and the Lindy Bancroft episode as well.
00:50:22
Speaker
I know there was a lot of requests for that and it was nice to have his insight into domestic violence and just, yeah, from somebody who actually works with perpetrators.
00:50:33
Speaker
So that was nice as well.
00:50:35
Speaker
Yeah, so FDS podcast highlights.
00:50:37
Speaker
So we're really, really thankful and grateful for everyone who joined this year on any of our FDS platforms, whether it be our social media or on the website, or if you listen to the podcast, or if you're one of the YouTube listeners, we have a little like YouTube crew.
