Ep 671 | Fake Racism, Fake Oppression, Fake Science, Fake Love

Published: Sept. 1, 2022, 7:11 p.m.

Today we're looking into a recent story about a college volleyball player who claimed that someone in the crowd continuously yelled a racial slur while she was playing. The problem? It didn't happen. Then, we talk Meghan Markle's interview with the Cut, in which she seems to compare herself to Nelson Mandela, and explain why she should stop trying to play the victim and the hero at the same time. We discuss how the American Academy of Pediatrics is\xa0still\xa0saying that kids should be wearing masks in schools despite all the evidence to the contrary. We look at the devastating long-term speech issues that forced mask-wearing has created for children. Lastly, we'll take a look at two women who claim that if you have a problem with your spouse going to strip clubs, you're the problem. We explain why this is a terrible, sad take.\n\n---\n\nTimecodes:\n\n[02:17] BYU volleyball race hoax\n[19:09] Meghan Markle's interview with The Cut\n[26:05] Masks\n[41:01] Should you let your spouse go to a strip club?\n\n---\n\nToday's Sponsors: \n\nCozy Earth \u2014 go to CozyEarth.com/ALLIE & use promo code 'ALLIE' at checkout to save 35% off your order!\n\nNetsuite \u2014 go to NetSuite.com/ALLIE to get your one-of-a-kind flexible financing program.\n\nEdenPURE \u2014 get 3 Thunderstorm Air Purifiers for under $200 at EdenPureDeals.com, use promo code 'ALLIE'!\n\nGood Ranchers \u2014 change the way you shop for meat today by visiting GoodRanchers.com/ALLIE & use promo code 'ALLIE' to save $30 off your order and lock in your price!\n\n---\n\nToday's Sponsors: \n\nWashington Post: "BYU bans fan, relocates volleyball match after racist slurs, threats" https://www.washingtonpost.com/sports/2022/08/27/byu-duke-volleyball-racist-incident/\n\nWashington Examiner: \u201cMedia go all-in on apparent volleyball racism hoax at BYU\u201d https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/opinion/media-go-all-in-on-apparent-volleyball-racism-hoax-at-byu\n\nDaily Wire: "Meghan Markle Under Fire For Story Comparing Her Marriage To Nelson Mandela\u2019s Release From\xa0Prison" https://www.dailywire.com/news/meghan-markle-under-fire-for-story-comparing-her-marriage-to-nelson-mandelas-release-from-prison\n\nThe Cut: "Meghan Markle on Her New Life in California" https://www.thecut.com/article/meghan-markle-profile-interview.html\n\nABC WPBF: "Palm Beach therapist sees increase in children's speech delays during COVID-19" https://www.wpbf.com/article/palm-beach-covid-therapist-speech-delays/38189805#\n\nNBC: "Babies learn to speak by lip-reading, could offer autism clues" https://www.nbcnews.com/health/health-news/babies-learn-speak-lip-reading-could-offer-autism-clues-flna1c6436520\n\nNature: "Titanium dioxide particles frequently present in face masks intended for general use require regulatory control" https://www.nature.com/articles/s41598-022-06605-w\n\n---\n\nBuy Allie's book, You're Not Enough (& That's Okay): Escaping the Toxic Culture of Self-Love: https://alliebethstuckey.com/book\n\nRelatable merchandise \u2013 use promo code 'ALLIE10' for a discount: https://shop.blazemedia.com/collections/allie-stuckey\nLearn more about your ad choices.
