Episode 069: "Probably the Ugliest Woman"

Kate and Jacqueline analyze what made a man on Twitter say such a nasty thing. The hags reflect on the indecency of Pop Crave and the courage it takes to feel ugly next to beautiful women. Jacqueline recounts interactions with trolls and Kate considers starting a Serial-esque podcast to get closure. Some of these men have dogs — daughters, even. Ultimately, this is the abstraction of violence — but the Hags wonder whether Daniel was just fulfilling his sacred contract to Kate. The walking brain is different and if you post about Tom Cruise he will see it. Edited and mixed by Allie GrahamMusic by Naomi McPherson 🎙️ Rate and Review. 🌟 Premium Feed: Subscribe🛍️ Shop Our Favorites: Shop My Store👕 Official Merch: Merchtable Store📱 Instagram: @poogpodcast If you ever hear an ad during the show that you suspect shouldn't be there - please immediately let the Berlant & Novak ads team know at podcasts@wearebv.comWhile there are strict blocks on certain ad categories in the show's automated ads system, **sometimes advertisers find ways to circumvent these restrictions**.
