About this episode

The episode discusses various cultural topics including the implications of a female umpire in tennis, the concept of 'boy moms', and the meaning of POV.

Is a female umpire the reason a big-deal tennis player lost his match? He certainly thought so.  A famous 'boy mom' has insisted she only want her sons to marry women with ‘dead mothers’ and everyone’s just a little disturbed.

Oh, and just throwing it out there: An argument for why women should not be allowed to write books. Obviously.
