Hysteria

In our 36th episode of This F*cking Guy, Erin and Crooked Media's Kendra James dive deep into the past of supermodel villain, Naomi Campbell. From her “feud" with Tyra Banks, to her unsavory taste in men, to her laundry list of assault charges, to her murky friendship with Jeffrey Epstein, this may be one of our most hostile, prima donna guys yet.

Erin and Alyssa react to the bombshell reporting on civil rights activist Cesar Chavez and the allegations of a lifelong pattern of sexual abuse. They also cover the election results out of Illinois, the latest on the SAVE Act in Congress, Louis Theroux’s new Netflix documentary on the Manosphere, and how the right is shaping culture from sex education to reality TV.

In our 35th episode of This F*cking Guy, Erin and Alyssa dive deep into the past of the AI Scammer, Sam Altman. From his early tech bro days at Loopt and Y Combinator, to getting a thrill by playing “God" with AI decision-making, to acting VERY shady about the death of an OpenAI employee, this may be our most disingenuous guy yet!

Erin Ryan and Akilah Hughes dig into the results from Tuesday's primaries, Trump’s Armageddon war in Iran, Hillary Clinton’s Epstein deposition, and the ever-moving goal posts for women in Washington. They also cover a horrifying new law in Kansas targeting trans people, Kristi Noem’s bad day at the Senate, and Politico’s unsettling profile of Nancy Mace. Then Kiran Deol joins for a very petty edition of the Sanity Corner, where they rant and rave about curling, tall men, and revisit a perfect network sitcom that was canceled too soon.
