8: Love Bombing

13: Sticking it to the Man with Microfeminisms

In this episode, Skip and Carlos discuss the strategic needling of men by using "microfeminisms" in every day life. Do you want a dude-bro to hang himself with his own rope? Microfeminisms will get you there. Plus, Supreme Court mixed messages, the red flag of friendships, and of course, joys. Join us now, and see you in three weeks.

12: Gender Expectations: Mr. Mom vs. Workin' Moms

Can men wear pink? Can women have kids and work? If men watch their own kids, is it babysitting and do they get brownie points? This week, Outside the Manosphere jumps into gender expectations in the continuing exploration of our glorious male privilege. Plus, we can't comprehend the number 1,000,000,000,000, Carlos begins training to wrestle Skip, reckless driving, vampires and werewolves, green flags, and of course, joys.

11: Pride Month - Silly with Lesbians

This week Outside the Manosphere, the guys talk a history of turbulent relationships, the red flags we blow past on the way into them, and good relationships that just don't work. What's with dudes that play victim by calling all women crazy? Do they have terrible judgement or are they completely powerless within relationships? Let's man up and take responsibility for our relationships. For pride month Carlos shares a life silly with lesbians, the guys chat about the self-hating gay men of the Manosphere/GOP, growing up queer in different contexts, and the rainbow army of youth experimentation. Also, Carlos abuses sound effects, Canada moves towards a ban on minors' social media, a hopeful plan for the future, green flags about a little independence in a relationship and joys for the week.

10: Male Privilege, Alive and Well

This week the guys talk about the impending water wars, billionaire rats fleeing a sinking ship, safety after dark, vinyl records, and - are we surprised? - a touch of comics are in the mix. Also, Carlos revisits controlling men, Skip talks about being sexually harassed, and the guys espouse about the perils of shopping while male. And, does not having kids make you less of a man? All this, plus joys, green flags, and a very chill one-armed lady. Join us Outside the Manosphere.

9: What's your Body Count?

This week Outside the Manosphere: Body Count. Do women have too many? Do men have to few? Does that math even make sense? What's the deal with guys being obsessed with Body Count anyway? Status, conquest, territoriality, good ol' fashioned fun - Skip and Carlos dig into it all. The guys also chat heatwaves, espouse voting with your wallet, and wax about self-reflection and how the lack thereof can lead to de facto, if unconscious, evil. Plus, green flags, joys, and Carlos's Primus Playlist [https://open.spotify.com/playlist/51ALF17ApHqrtBRgqROD0t?si=fjRTedFmT-mz3u9ogLg8HA&pi=NqbrAd28RV2TF⁠ ].
