It's A Lot with Abbie Chatfield

The trial of Lindsay Clancy has made headlines around the world and has sparked countless debates and conversations, some more productive than others. Abbie unpacks some of the extreme manosphere reactions, why we still have a long way to go when it comes to talking about mental illness, and why some hot takes actually have nothing to do with the case.

Abbie found a new op shop book about gender roles!!! This one is called Why Men Don't Listen And Women Can't Read Maps, and of course features complete fabrications about 'caveman times', among many other hilarious takes that attempt to turn sexism into science. Plus a nice, long tangent about cheating and surveillance culture!

It's a NMF situation we've all had to endure; listening to a co-worker's insane opinions because you're stuck on shift together at a minimum wage job. But some of these conspiracy theories even WE haven't heard of!! Abbie didn't take a dexie today so this NMF comes with extra rants!

Abbie has made it well known on this podcast that she is not a fan of generative AI and LLMs. But, as journalist Marc Fennell found in his new podcast series Unreal, AI is already fundamentally changing the way we relate to each other and understand ourselves. Abbie and Marc talk about why he wanted to focus on human stories, the real-world effects of AI he encountered when making the series, and how they've both had their views challenged by these stories.

NOTE: This episode contains discussions of gun violence, please listen with care.
