I love how no one admits they listen to P&TG without some sort of disclaimer. Like admitting they watch Jersey Shore.

Dale, thats the oldest trick in the book of men. Learned that when I was an early teen.


Mom - Mike, *sniff sniff* you smell like marijuana!!!

Me - WHAT??? Mom, you're nuts!! I've NEVER smoked weed...... I mean marijuana. You need to get your head checked out!!!

Mom - Well, maybe its just the neighbors burning leaves or something. Ok, nevermind.

Me - Yeah, ok mom. *all squinty eyed*

I've decided to listen to every episode of Free Talk Live a week, except Sunday.
Mr. Edge, consider another host or go back to the guest show format.

I listened to the last Porc Therapy with Buzz and for the life of me, I can't figure out what all the outrage is about. Most everything she said in there seemed like calm, sensible opinions.

She brought up the question of why there aren't more ladies in the liberty movement. I wish you guys would realize what a great ally Stephanie can be in answering that question. I suspect liberty-oriented ladies are a bit ahead of the game in rejecting a lot of standard sexist brainwashing. I suspect most of them are turned off by misogynist behavior and maybe just don't stick around and persevere the way Stephanie has and maybe they aren't quite as good about communicating what it is. So maybe they just get discouraged and leave.

It seems like you'd rather sweep dust under the rug and not think about it but that ain't gonna get us nowhere. You guys want your libertarian boys club more than you want there to be more women here. You're gonna make your bed and lie in it.

Not everyone, of course, not by far. But those who protest the loudest, I think it would serve you well to analyze what you're really so upset about.

...the repeated harping...it's painfully unlistenable.

FWIW, if you asked my wife, mother and sister, they'd laugh at you if you asked whether I was a misogynist.

I think you guys whining about Stephanie are way more annoying than listening to her on the podcasts.

If you don't like, don't listen - and enjoy being with whatever type women you enjoy being with.

Nothing wrong with her addressing crude guys for being crude.

Exactly.  Which is the point we are trying to make to the owners of this forum and LRN and FTL.

i.e. Ian.

Well I can practically guarantee that your whining isn't going to get her kicked off of anything so I suggest you go with your other alternative and just stop listening to her shows.

Already done.  As soon as I hear that annoying voice the channel gets changed.

To you, but it's clearly not universal. To me and certainly to many others, it sounds like she makes excellent points most of the time. When you call it harping, you're being dismissive of what she has to say as if it doesn't have a point and she's seeing problems where there are none. Obviously, that's the point of contention. I, for one, have not been convinced that's the case.

Look, I'm not trying to make this personal and label you or anything like that, but that's just not a persuasive point. The point is that women have been conditioned for generations to put up with bullshit from men. In particular, I would presume that if you were raised to not treat women with the greatest of respect, the women in your family were raised in the same environment and raised to put up with it. I imagine it's a pretty bizarre scenario when a women thinks her sibling or her son is a misogynist.

Essentially, if you disagree, then make an argument with respect to specific things she said instead of this endless trantrum throwing--

SHUT UP! SHUT UP! UR JUST WRAWNG!

Guess nobody has noticed. Mark is probably too polite to mention it, but the Sunday show is growing in both stations and advertisers. As much as I like to bust on Stephanie, she and Mark are doing well. This is good for all of us. Mark would be a damn fool to get rid of her.
Besides on the last show Stephanie was the only reasonable voice on the subject of suicide. Mark must of had a cola or something.

So, don't read this.  This is one thread on the BBS.  That's a radio show, which is not about the topic.
