If men can’t listen to...
Learning how to be a better option than the bear. If men can’t listen to women, LGBTQ+, minorities, or anyone with a different perspective, then maybe they can listen to another man’s journey to become a better listener by having a conversation with these people and maybe meet some intriguing people along the way. This podcast is meant for everyone who wanders in with an open mind, from skeptics looking to better understand their fellow citizens, to the mildly curious looking for personal growth, all the way through die-hard feminists and activists; anyone who wants to work together towards understanding and making the world a better place.

If men can't listen to women, maybe they can listen to a man listening to Nicole Davenport of the podcast "Great in the sack: when misogyny leads to mayhem". Nicole's podcast approaches the inaction in solving misogyny and femocide by bearing witness through storytelling to the way the world uses women and girls as expendable objects. We dive into the mechanisms of insecurity, incel culture, and lifting each other up instead of tearing our perceived competition down, and how the competition itself originates in downward manipulation.
You can find Nicole's podcast in all of the major podcast distributors and on social media:
