Marina,
I think you have the show because you get worked up over stuff. The show is your medium for venting your spleen.

I open doors for anyone…it is to avoid running in to each other…duh.
Also you can see if the guy has a hot ass!
Double doors are for entry on the right ONLY so opening the left door is BAD!
The more I listen to ILL… ( i just noticed I Love Lard initials are ILL )… the more I think Ben should be sainted or slapped…not sure which?
Marina I love ya to death but you make me very glad I am gay : )
Oh and to the listener who thinks only possibility of a good job is college is smoking crack.
Both my sisters and my Brother have at least a 4 year college degree and I make more money than all of them.
Robin had trouble with his costume and his HUGE member…they had to make him tuck his monster.

Isn’t chivalry about how the performer of the act wants to be perceived?
You want to be perceived as a kind, thoughtful person, especially when it’s in the eyes of a member of the opposite sex.
Even if you’re not directly trying to attract the person you’re holding the door open for, other people can also observe you being chivalrous, or maybe later, if the subject is brought up in conversation, it’s easy to bring up your own good deeds if someone else fails to do so.

Hey, I totally missed this show! I suck at keeping up with your podcast, sorry.
Since by your next show this comment will be from two shows ago, you in no way have to read this, but I thought I’d add some fellow feminist cuntyness to the chorus of dudeness. One thing you said that you kind of let pass was that when you don’t let people hold the door for you, they can get weird (which in some women’s experience, equates to rude or mean or angry; not sure about yours), so now you end up just acquiescing to them. Boom! Patriarchy in a nutshell. And that, among other things, is why things like door-opening and other chivalrous crap is still a big deal to women.
I guess your point about working harder than the guy behind you (although “working harder” in this case often equates to “get luckier, live in a better region,” and a lot of other situational stuff is fine for a piece of personal advice to an individual. But you were applying it as a general mode for success, and again, as you acknowledged, that’s not how a capitalistic system works. You have to be ahead of the guy behind you, and there are always going to be people trailing behind–not because they don’t work hard enough, which I think you kind of imply with your statements, but because by the nature of capitalistic society, there are only so many people who can get to the top. Sorry to get so blah blah blah over this, but “Poor people are lazy” (or “poor people don’t work hard enough,” which is basically the same thing, even if you didn’t mean it that way) is a huge oversimplification of the issue, and is the kind of thing I’ve seen a thousand times in every conversation about whether poor people say, deserve or don’t deserve to die in the streets because their job doesn’t provide them with health insurance and they can’t afford an independent policy. So it tends to be kind of a button.
My complaint about Wonder Woman’s outfit isn’t that she’s wearing pants, it’s that she doesn’t look like a superhero. Superheros can wear pants, but ffs it should look like a *costume*, and it should at least call back to the original costume in something other than fugly armbands.
