21: Incels, Pick Up Artists, and Chads, Oh My!
Episode description
This week the girls are bringing a little something different for you to enjoy. Join Bree and Suze while they dive into the world of misogynist incels, pick-up artists, and the violence often resulting from their shared belief system. These guys are no freaking joke and the worse thing we can do is underestimate what they believe and what they are willing to do to achieve their goals.
The girls needed a strengthy cocktail to help get through all of the awfulness so Suze whipped up a "Dark & Stormy" for the occasion.
Come hang out with us on social media! This is where we post the shopping lists (so you can stock up your bar ahead of time), drink recipes, and other fun things.
