In this episode we look at how men can reflect on their own behaviours in light of the Sarah Everard case. We explore how such violence often takes place and how men can be more honest about the roots of violence - including how close to home it is. We're ultimately all responsible to make changes as men.
We discuss a bit of feminist geography (ooo fancy) exploring urban spaces and the ideas behind gendered fear. We also delve into how the Sarah Everard case has been portrayed in the media, receiving more attention than other horrific cases, often overlooked largely due to race and class. We round up by picking apart the argument of "not all men" with a bit of sympathy, because unfortunately, "yes, all men".
We don't play a silly quiz in the episode because it's not a funny topic - like wanking or poutine - but we do read out a hilariously baffling tweet regarding gender-based violence.
