Judge Not Lest Ye Be Judged
Very Powerful show. The hosts seem to have a large capacity for forgiveness and understanding.
It's almost as if technology has set society back thousands of years to a highly puritanical mindset.
It's too easy these days to "delete," or "block" somebody.
Worrying for the future
Listening to the interview with Seth Cifferi , being a tattoo artist myself and as a male artist. I’ve had numerous conversations with coworkers about the implications of cancel culture. I’m glad you guys are bringing these things to light with conversation. I’m worried that sooner or later people are going to be so self censored that any meaningful conversation between people will be impossible. We are living in a “walk on eggshells “ I have tons of female clients that I joke with constantly. They tell me how nice and respectful I am. But I do worry that if even one of them accused me of anything… that my career would be over. Scary times. Keep up the good work!
i’d give this 0 stars if i could
why are they giving certain abusers air time ? there’s a huge difference between canceling someone for a tee shirt saying something a bunch of cry babies are taking the wrong way vs. an abuser being outted by a former partner. this is ridiculous and how/why men keep getting away from it
