In this episode, host Kip Ioane tackles three compelling topics that challenge our perceptions of masculinity and respect for women:

Man vs. Bear Debate: Kip explores the viral TikTok debate where many women prefer being stuck with a bear over a man, discussing the real fears and statistics on violence against women.

Harrison Butker's Graduation Speech: Kip critiques the traditional gender roles promoted in Butker's speech at Benedictine College, highlighting the need for evolving views on masculinity and equality.

Kendrick Lamar vs. Drake Rap Beef: Initially siding with Kendrick, Kip reconsiders his stance after a powerful TikTok video by @jamylecannon, exposing troubling behaviors of both artists towards women.
