  • Pink Pill Ideology

    Pink Pill Ideology
    Jun 30 2025
    This week on The Audaci-Tea Podcast, your hosts Lisa, Sovereign, and Gwen unpack the rise of Pink Pill Ideology — the hard-lined and seductive spin on "feminism" that ultimately leads women right back into the arms of the patriarchy. But first, in Tea Time, we break down the U.S. airstrikes on Iran and how growing global instability is creating dangerous conditions for women everywhere. In our main discussion, we examine how alt-right content creators are co-opting feminist language to push regressive ideals, how binary thinking erases important nuance, and why conservative feminism often excludes marginalized voices. If you’ve ever scrolled past a video that sounds empowering but just doesn’t sit right, this episode will help you make sense of it all. 🎧 This episode is your reminder: just because it’s pink, doesn’t mean it’s feminist. 🎙️ Topics Discussed: The Pink Pill to alt-right pipeline and how it traps womenConservative feminism and its erasure of marginalized voicesHow binary thinking fuels extremism and apathyThe unpaid labor of wedding culture and gendered expectationsWhy the patriarchy harms men too but still rewards them for itEncouraging critical thinking when consuming online content ✨ Links and Resources Mentioned: Trump faces bipartisan pushback to Iran strike https://abcnews.go.com/Politics/congress-faces-uphill-battle-challenge-trump-war-powers/story?id=123116301 Iranian missiles fired at US base in Qatar intercepted https://www.cnn.com/world/live-news/israel-iran-us-strikes-06-23-25-intl-hnk What is BRICS? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BRICS Funeral arrangements announced for brain-dead Georgia woman who delivered baby while on life support https://www.atlantanewsfirst.com/2025/06/22/funeral-arrangements-announced-brain-dead-georgia-woman-who-delivered-baby-while-life-support/ Syria’s beachwear laws spark global backlash https://www.reuters.com/world/middle-east/syria-requires-women-wear-burkinis-public-beaches-2025-06-11/ Teen murdered in coach-led murder-suicide https://people.com/michigan-teen-killed-by-bowling-coach-murder-suicide-11759244 Red states push to end no-fault divorce https://www.npr.org/2024/07/07/nx-s1-5026948/conservatives-in-red-states-turn-their-attention-to-ending-no-fault-divorce-laws The Y chromosome is disappearing https://www.earth.com/news/y-chromosome-is-disappearing-may-already-be-causing-problems-for-men/ 📚 This Week’s Recommendation: Right Wing Women by Andrea Dworkin https://us.macmillan.com/books/9781250359216/rightwingwomen JoJo on TikTok – the creator who inspired this episode https://www.tiktok.com/@heyyy_jojo 💌 Join the Conversation: Got questions or wild stories to share?

  • No Kings!

    No Kings!
    Jun 23 2025
    This week on The Audaci-Tea Podcast, your hosts Lisa, Sovereign, and Gwen take an extended Tea Time to unpack the increasingly volatile political climate in the United States. From ICE raids and the militarization of Los Angeles to the targeting of marginalized communities and protesters, we’re breaking down the signs of authoritarianism and reminding our listeners why No Kings means no man rules over a free people. Later, we dig into the importance of intersectionality in modern feminism, discuss how assimilation and white feminism leave too many women behind, and spotlight how real solidarity across marginalized groups is the key to survival in a patriarchal society. Finally, we review the Anna Kendrick-directed thriller Woman of the Hour and explore how it both reflects and details the real-life dangers of male privilege and violence against women. 🎧 This episode is your reminder: We don't do kings in America. No one is above the law, no group is disposable, and your voice matters. If you’re waiting for someone else to act, you’re already too late. 🎙️ Topics Discussed: * The rise of fascism and the myth of American exceptionalism * ICE raids, immigrant scapegoating, and due process * Why intersectionality matters in modern feminism * Political violence against marginalized communities * Film review: Woman of the Hour and male entitlement ✨ Links and Resources Mentioned: What To Know About ‘No Kings’ Protests Against Trump’s Policies https://www.pbs.org/newshour/politics/what-to-know-about-no-kings-protests-against-trumps-policies People In America Shall Not Be Deported Without Due Process https://constitution.congress.gov/browse/essay/artI-S8-C18-8-7-2/ALDE_00001262/ ‘Snatching off the streets’: ICE targets churches, car washes and workplaces https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025/jun/12/los-angeles-ice-raids Texas Was Annexed Into The US From Mexico in 1845 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Texas_annexation The Trump Family’s Immigrant Story https://www.history.com/articles/donald-trump-father-mother-ancestry Melania Trump on the Harsh Immigration System https://www.cbsnews.com/news/melania-trump-immigration-process-harsh-realities/ Trump Administration Pauses Immigration Raids https://www.pbs.org/newshour/show/trump-administration-pauses-immigration-raids-on-farms-hotels-and-restaurants Minnesota Shooting Suspect Had Hit List of 45 Democrats https://www.npr.org/2025/06/16/nx-s1-5433748/minnesota-shooting-suspect-vance-boelter-arrested-melissa-hortman-john-hoffman Brooklyn Woman Says Man Posed As ICE Agent Before Attempted Rape https://abc7ny.com/post/brooklyn-attempted-rape-woman-says-man-posed-ice-agent-before-attempting-sexually-assault-heights/15897592/ LA Troops and Marines Report Low Morale Amid Domestic Deployment https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025/jun/12/los-angeles-national-guard-troops-marines-morale Trump Vows to Indemnify Police https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2023/12/23/trump-police-indemnify-qualified-immunity/ New VA Rules Allow Doctors to Refuse Treatment Based on Politics https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025/jun/16/va-doctors-refuse-treat-patients All About No Kings https://www.nokings.org Lawsuit Over Kamala Harris Getting Zero Votes in NY Moves Forward https://www.latintimes.com/lawsuit-challenging-2024-election-results-moves-forward-after-kamala-harris-received-zero-votes-584787 📚 This Week’s Recommendation: No Human Involved (Documentary) https://vimeo.com/ondemand/nohumaninvolved 💌 Join the Conversation: Got questions or wild stories to share?

  • Never Date For Potential (feat. Cindy Noir)

    Never Date For Potential (feat. Cindy Noir)
    Jun 16 2025

    This week on The Audaci-Tea Podcast, your hosts Lisa, Sovereign, and Gwen are joined by special guest Cindy Noir to break down why dating for potential is a trap, and how too many high-achieving women get finessed by low-effort, manipulative men. But first, in Tea Time, we dive into the Trump Administration’s dangerous rollback of EMTALA protections and its implications for women’s health. We also respond to a Patreon Tea VIP voicemail claiming Rose from Titanic was NOT the villain. (Spoiler alert: we agree.)

    In our main segment, we unpack the latest developments in the Wizard Liz scandal and discuss how women can protect their peace, trust their intuition, and avoid confusing red flags for potential. And in this week’s Mailbag, we respond to a heartfelt voicemail from a single mom navigating her post-divorce glow-up while trying to unlearn pick-me behavior and rebuild her confidence.

    🎧 This episode is your reminder: you don’t owe dusty men grace, potential is not a plan, and your power is not negotiable. Believe him the first time.

    🎙️ Topics Discussed:

    • The EMTALA rollback and threats to emergency abortion care
    • Why women should stop dating men for potential
    • The Wizard Liz scandal and the danger of dating down
    • Pick-me rehab and reclaiming your self-worth
    • Navigating life after male-centered relationships

    ✨ Links and Resources Mentioned:

    • Trump withdraws federal directive requiring abortion care in an urgent medical crisis
    • Women in 30s now having more babies than younger moms in US (2017)
    • Man drives family off a cliff, charged with attempted murder

    📚 This Week’s Recommendation:

    • Cindy Noir

  • When Jealous Men Crash Out

    When Jealous Men Crash Out
    Jun 9 2025
    This week on The Audaci-Tea Podcast, your hosts Lisa, Sovereign, and Gwen unpack the Jealousy Crash Out — the chaotic spiral of male insecurity and entitlement — sparked by the viral controversy surrounding self-love influencer The Wizard Liz. But first, in Tea Time, we break down who The Wizard Liz is and why her story is a masterclass in male fragility. We also spotlight a 13-year-old girl who fought off a would-be attacker with jiu-jitsu (and broke his ankle), and respond to a fiery Tea VIP voicemail about white men’s unchecked behavior toward women and children. Then, in our Feminist Herstory segment, Gwen takes us on a ride with the Pirate Queen of the South China Sea, Zheng Yi Sao, a historical badass who built one of the most powerful pirate fleets in history, all while being a woman in 19th-century China. 🎧 This episode explores what happens when men feel threatened by women’s success and how they try to "swap destinies" with us to dim our shine. We’re not having it. 🎙️ Topics Discussed: The Wizard Liz and the male jealousy crash outHow men weaponize emotional manipulation when women thriveSafety, self-defense, and empowerment for young girlsWhite male impunity in relationships and societyLessons from Pirate Queen Zheng Yi Sao ✨ Links and Resources Mentioned: ✨ Links and Resources Mentioned: The Wizard Liz revealed her husband cheated while she’s 4 months pregnantCardi B Slams Offset's Spousal Support RequestGirl, 13 Fends Off Attacker on Walk Home from School Using Jiu-Jitsu: 'Broke His Ankle'Wing Chun, One Of The World's Youngest Kung Fu Styles11 Animals That Can Change SexCreating a sperm or egg from any cell?

  • The Love Trap

    The Love Trap
    Jun 2 2025
    This week on The Audaci-Tea Podcast, your hosts Lisa, Sovereign, and Gwen dive headfirst into The Love Trap, the twisted dynamic between how men and women view love, commitment, and emotional labor. But first, in Tea Time, we explore Trump’s dystopian “One Big Beautiful Bill Act” (yes, that’s the real name), what it means for AI regulation, and how economic policy continues to undermine women’s rights. We also respond to a disturbing listener voicemail about men using dating apps to target single mothers and the alarming safety implications that come with it. In the main discussion, we unpack how women are often conditioned to associate sacrifice with love, while men are socialized to seek relationships as status symbols, ego boosts, or conveniences. We call out the manipulative behaviors that keep women trapped in emotionally one sided relationships; and how to spot them. Finally, in our Mailbag segment, we tackle a listener question about navigating intimacy and women’s sexual needs. 🎧 This episode exposes how love, as it’s sold to women, can become a trap and why waking up to that reality is the first step to liberation. 🎙️ Topics Discussed: How patriarchy shapes men’s and women’s views of loveManipulation, infidelity, and the illusion of commitmentThe dangers of dating “for potential”Why women’s emotional labor goes unpaid in relationshipsPrioritizing self-worth over societal expectationsNavigating intimacy when your needs are ignored ✨ Links and Resources Mentioned: H.R.1 - One Big Beautiful Bill Act (Congress.gov)The Bill Would Ban States from Regulating AI (Mashable)Worst Parts of Trump’s “Beautiful” Bill (New Republic)How 3 Democratic Deaths Enabled the GOP Agenda (Daily Beast)YouTuber’s Viral Abuse AllegationsViral Post: Man Shakes His GF for $3,600 📚 This Week’s Recommendation: Free Harvard Online Courses (Government & Society) 💌 Join the Conversation: Got questions or wild stories to share?

    The Price Of Being Nice (feat. Sarah of Horrible Mean Bad Woman)
    May 26 2025
    This week on The Audaci-Tea Podcast, your hosts Lisa, Sovereign, and Gwen are joined by Sarah, the fearless feminist creator behind Horrible Mean Bad Woman to unpack the societal cost of being “nice.” In our Tea Time segment, we discuss Halle Bailey’s custody battle with DDG, updates in the Diddy case, and a horrifying story out of Georgia where a brain-dead woman is being kept alive to carry a pregnancy to term. In the main discussion, we examine how “niceness” has been weaponized to keep women small, compliant, and self-sacrificing, and how rejecting people-pleasing can be one of the most radical things a woman can do. We also dive into the sci-fi film Companion and its chilling metaphor for how some men view women as customizable emotional support systems, designed to serve. 🎧 This episode is a defiant reminder that “being nice” won’t save us. It just makes patriarchy more comfortable. 🎙️ Topics Discussed: The hidden cost of people-pleasing for womenEmotional manipulation and the illusion of reciprocityWhy saying “no” is essential for self-preservationMedia narratives that center men’s needs over women’sFeminist rage as an antidote to guilt and griefHow the film Companion reveals men’s desire for control and obedience ✨ Links and Resources Mentioned: Halle Bailey Granted Temporary Custody of Son Following Accusations Against DDG (BET)What is Sean 'Diddy' Combs Charged With?

  • Mother's Day Misery

    Mother's Day Misery
    May 19 2025
    This week on The Audaci-Tea Podcast, your hosts Lisa, Sovereign, and Gwen unpack the darker side of Mother’s Day, a day that often feels more like an emotional ambush than a celebration. In our Tea Time segment, we react to a Fox News host fainting on live TV (while her co-host did nothing), Trump’s quiet retreat on his trade war with China, and a Tea VIP listener message on Logan Paul’s reaction to becoming a girl dad. In the main discussion, we confront the uncomfortable truths around how Mother’s Day can become a ritual of humiliation for women, from thoughtless gifts and weaponized neglect to the emotional labor and sacrifice expected of mothers in patriarchal family structures. In our Mailbag segment, we respond to a listener email about the power of language and its role in shaping gender dynamics. 🎧 This episode is a gut check on the unrealistic expectations placed on women, the myth of the benevolent patriarch, and why we need to rethink how we value motherhood. 🎙️ Topics Discussed: How Mother’s Day often reinforces patriarchal power dynamicsEmotional labor and the weaponization of inadequate giftsThe myth of the “benevolent patriarch” and dependency trapsNarcissistic family dynamics and the erasure of mothers' needsThe role of language in upholding or challenging patriarchyWhy women need to center self-worth and solidarity over sacrifice ✨ Links and Resources Mentioned: Fox News guest faints and host carries onTrump folds on China tariffs in trade rollbackIndia and Pakistan pull back from brinkLogan Paul becomes a father to a daughterTrump's disturbing Ivanka comment 📚 This Week’s Recommendation: Companion — (Next week’s movie review!) 👉 Learn Where To Watch 💌 Join the Conversation: Got questions or wild stories to share?

  • Medical Gaslighting

    Medical Gaslighting
    May 12 2025
    This week on The Audaci-Tea Podcast, your hosts Lisa, Sovereign, and Gwen dive into the infuriating reality of medical gaslighting, where women's symptoms are dismissed, downplayed, or misdiagnosed by healthcare providers. But first, in our Tea Time segment, we spill the tea on the latest headlines, including Trump’s executive order slashing funding for NPR and PBS, a breakdown of the SAVE Act and its threat to voter access, and looming economic impacts from shipping delays and mass layoffs at UPS. In the main discussion, we explore how women, especially women of color, face systemic discrimination in healthcare, unpack the exploitative history of gynecology, and challenge the medical establishment’s paternalistic attitudes toward birth control, pain, and bodily autonomy. And finally, in our Feminist Herstory segment, we honor Henrietta Lacks, the Black woman whose cells were taken without consent and used to power decades of medical breakthroughs, reminding us how deeply racism is woven into the fabric of modern medicine. 🎧 This episode shines a light on the intersection of gender, race, and power in healthcare, and why we must stop apologizing for advocating for ourselves. 🎙️ Topics Discussed: The cultural roots and modern rise of medical gaslightingHow women’s pain is ignored, minimized, or misdiagnosedThe racial disparities in healthcare and implicit biasThe dark origins of gynecology and stolen bodily autonomyThe weaponization of birth control and mistrust in relationshipsHenrietta Lacks and the exploitation of Black women in medicine ✨ Links and Resources Mentioned: NPR and PBS push back against Trump’s order to cut fundingHow a 10-Year-Old Rape Victim Became a Political FirestormGeorgia Dismissed Maternal Mortality Committee After ProPublica InquirySperm Quality's Role in MiscarriageThe SAVE Act, Which Could Stop Millions of Women From Voting, Is ‘Dead on Arrival’Port Watch TrackerUPS To Lay Off 20,000 WorkersImplicit Bias in Medicine: How it Hurts Black WomenWhy Women Give Birth Lying Down – And It’s Not About ComfortThe Evolution Of Birth Control And A Woman’s Right To ChooseMale Birth Control Study Halted Due to Side EffectsDisgusting Endometriosis Study RetractedRapist’s Sentence Suspended Due to “Promising Future” as Gynaecologist 📚 This Week’s Recommendation: Empire of Pain: The Secret History of the Sackler Dynasty by Patrick Radden Keefe 👉 Available here 💌 Join the Conversation: Got questions or wild stories to share?
