In this episode, Amanda and Jenna try to cover the latest headlines around men being toxic but there are SO MANY. From Derek Chauvin to the Minnesota Supreme Court saying "Go for it, Rapists!", to an astounding number of mass shootings committed by men so far in 2021, to Matt Gaetz buying teenage girls to have sex with and then bragging about it, it's just a toxic masculinity jackpot up in here lately, but in the worst way. After that, we tell the story of Vicki's stalker, "Stalker Steve," who decided that Vicki breaking up with him was unacceptable (hi, male entitlement!) and stalked her relentlessly for two years, at one point calling her 1,200 times in one month alone. We offer tips for how to respond to stalking (spoiler alert: you don't) and share what Vicki did that was super smart that ended up putting her stalker behind bars. (1 hour 35 minutes)
