Episode Description

If there’s one major theme that defines our work, it can be best summed up like this: The right has a well-funded propaganda media ecosystem and it’s poisoning the minds of a lot of young men. 

Director and content creator Brenna Perez is very, very good at explaining why men get sucked into an online ecosystem that’s fueled by a bizarre and ugly definition of performative masculinity.

We had an amazing conversation with Brenna about the new Louis Theroux documentary Inside the Manosphere, which then led to a complete autopsy about why the man-o-sphere exists, if men are bad in general (spoiler: of course not), and how to mentor young men so they stop getting sucked into the alt-right’s deep-pocketed content pipeline.

It’s not easy to have these discussions and we really appreciate Brenna taking the time to share her sharp insights into what is a super important topic.
