A creator went viral for telling parents they can request IEP meetings during the summer and teachers pushed back. Chesko and Regan break down how quickly a reasonable take became an entitlement spiral, why "I'm the customer" is the wrong frame for literally any classroom, and how anti-intellectualism is showing up in spaces you wouldn't expect.

Men online are furious about the new God of War installment, where you play as Laufey (Kratos's wife and the character the entire series is built around), so naturally someone made an AI game called God of Laundry where she does dishes and changes diapers. Chesko and Regan connect the outrage to a larger pattern: the same men demanding empathy for male loneliness are openly, publicly building communities around hating women.

Chesko and Regan react to a viral clip from Dr. Mike's podcast in which a guest claims the left doesn't care about men's issues (including male loneliness, depression, and declining college enrollment). They push back hard, arguing that these problems are products of patriarchy, that feminists (especially women and gay men) have been addressing them for decades, and that the real complaint isn't that no one is talking about masculinity, but that no one is centering men's feelings without context or accountability. They also dig into male friendship deficits, the myth that men and women can't be friends, the harm of gendering personality traits, and why rehabilitating men in pain isn't women's job.

In this episode, Chesko and Regan dig into a clip from the Modern Wisdom Podcast about men and women's differing political views in relationships, using it as a springboard to discuss how voting reflects core values and morality, the myth that ethics require religion, and why women are increasingly treating political alignment as a dealbreaker. The conversation weaves through personal stories about discovering friends' hidden bigotry, being used as someone's token minority or LGBTQ+ "reference," proximity to fame, and the predatory patterns behind large age-gap relationships which all build to the episode's central thesis that shitty behavior isn't a partisan issue. Shitty dudes exist across the political spectrum.

Regan and Chesko discuss a viral video of a woman recounting her husband's Disney World meltdown after their stroller went missing. We dig into the red flags, the privilege baked into acting that way without consequences, and the unexpected turn the conversation takes when the poster responds to commenters telling her to leave...revealing the early, fragile stages of recognizing you're in a bad situation. Plus a broader talk about rage-bait, internet pile-ons, and the responsibility creators and commenters share to leave space for the women who actually need to be heard.

Regan and Chesko break down what might be the most sexist article ever written, a New York Post hit piece on Greta Thunberg with a misleading headline implying she’s caught up in a Freedom Flotilla sex scandal she has nothing to do with. The article mocks her “short stint” in Israeli prison after being kidnapped, calls her the “Swedish queen of sanctimony,” fixates on her “angry” face, and reduces her entire career to one “how dare you” moment. From there, the conversation widens into the Monica Lewinsky playbook of sacrificing women to protect powerful men, misogyny on the left, and the constant pressure to soften accountability for the sake of coalition-building.

This week, Regan and Chesko tackle the strange male phenomenon of refusing feedback in the bedroom (and what speech and debate national champions can teach us about taking the note). Then a beach interview goes absurdly wrong when a woman dares to mention she likes scrawny guys, prompting the interviewer to launch into a monologue about his net worth, his anatomy, his late wife, and his daughter, all in roughly twelve seconds. Along the way, they cover the mythical "6-6-6," the impossibility of accidental cheating, and why men with zero female friends keep mistaking rejection for personal tragedy.

Chesko and Regan dive into the great "coffee date debate" after a viral clip from the Girls Gotta Eat podcast sparked conversation online. They break down their own opinions as to what it really means when a guy asks you out for coffee, push back on the transactional framing of dating ("are you worth the spend?"), and explore how manosphere-adjacent advice is quietly reshaping modern dating culture. In short, two long-term partnered people confidently discussing modern dating that they have never personally experienced (You're welcome).Support us on Patreon (and hear bonus content!):https://www.patreon.com/mrpickmeandthemanhaterMerch Store:https://www.bonfire.com/store/mr-pick-me--the-manhater/Follow Us on Social Media:https://www.youtube.com/@mrpickmeandthemanhaterhttps://www.instagram.com/mrpickmeandthemanhaterFollow The Manhater: Regan (F the Nice Guy) -TikTok: http://www.tiktok.com/@ftheniceguyInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/buckle.up.babesPodcast: https://ftheniceguypodcast.podbean.com/Follow Mr. Pick Me: Chesko (The Speech Prof) -Substack: http://www.thespeechprof.comTikTok: http://www.TikTok.com/@speechprofInstagram: https://www.Instagram.com/thespeechprofFacebook: https://www.Facebook.com/thespeechprofYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@TheRealSpeechProfTheme song by Sara Spicer - https://www.Instagram.com/saraspicermusicand Tera Lynne Fister - https://www.Instagram.com/iamfister

Chesko attempts to speed-run the viral "Bro Cruise" saga from Threads (a bachelor trip so chaotic it became internet legend) but naturally, he and Regan end up deep in tangents about holiday magic, parenting, privilege, and egg-laying Easter bunnies.

This week, Chesko and Regan dive into a fascinating question posed by author Jason Pargin. "Why do women seem to do far fewer double-takes at attractive men in public than men do at women?" The conversations opens up into a discussion about grooming standards, the social pressure on women to maintain their appearance at all times, the "metrosexual" panic of the 2000s, and how safety concerns shape the way women move through public spaces. Along the way, they also discuss pain stims, smutty book clubs, the dad bod double standard, and (inevitably) men's hygiene habits in ways that cannot be unheard. Support us on Patreon (and hear bonus content!):https://www.patreon.com/mrpickmeandthemanhaterMerch Store:https://www.bonfire.com/store/mr-pick-me--the-manhater/Follow Us on Social Media:https://www.youtube.com/@mrpickmeandthemanhaterhttps://www.instagram.com/mrpickmeandthemanhaterFollow The Manhater: Regan (F the Nice Guy) -TikTok: http://www.tiktok.com/@ftheniceguyInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/buckle.up.babesPodcast: https://ftheniceguypodcast.podbean.com/Follow Mr. Pick Me: Chesko (The Speech Prof) -Substack: http://www.thespeechprof.comTikTok: http://www.TikTok.com/@speechprofInstagram: https://www.Instagram.com/thespeechprofFacebook: https://www.Facebook.com/thespeechprofYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@TheRealSpeechProfTheme song by Sara Spicer - https://www.Instagram.com/saraspicermusicand Tera Lynne Fister - https://www.Instagram.com/iamfister

Chesko and Regan kick off with some chaotic parent energy (haunted dolls, goblin accusations, and the recycling bin of shame) before diving into a viral video of a husband handing his wife a shirt to cover herself up. They break down why "he dresses you because he loves you" is a gateway to control, how tradwife influencers sell a lifestyle they don't actually live, and why women thriving after barriers are removed is apparently a crisis. From the manosphere as radicalization pipeline to DEI, legacy admits, and benevolent sexism, it's an episode full of pattern recognition and ranting.

After some fun cold-open chaos to the show (as per usual) Chesko and Regan dove into the main topic: Timothy Chalamet's repeated, dismissive comments about ballet and opera. They unpacked how his remarks aren't just a bad take in isolation, but fit a broader pattern of men seeking masculine credibility by devaluing feminized art forms. The conversation expanded into how Chalamet's whole rebrand feels like a failed attempt to be a hustle-culture alpha while still claiming the identity of a serious artist and drew comparisons to similar falls from grace by Chris Pratt, Zachary Levi, Hugh Jackman, and others. The episode wrapped with some lighter tangents about winking, grumpy resting faces, and anticipation for Michael B. Jordan's performance in Sinners.Support us on Patreon (and hear bonus content!):https://www.patreon.com/mrpickmeandthemanhaterMerch Store:https://www.bonfire.com/store/mr-pick-me--the-manhater/Follow Us on Social Media:https://www.youtube.com/@mrpickmeandthemanhaterhttps://www.instagram.com/mrpickmeandthemanhaterFollow The Manhater: Regan (F the Nice Guy) -TikTok: http://www.tiktok.com/@ftheniceguyInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/buckle.up.babesPodcast: https://ftheniceguypodcast.podbean.com/Follow Mr. Pick Me: Chesko (The Speech Prof) -Substack: http://www.thespeechprof.comTikTok: http://www.TikTok.com/@speechprofInstagram: https://www.Instagram.com/thespeechprofFacebook: https://www.Facebook.com/thespeechprofYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@TheRealSpeechProfTheme song by Sara Spicer - https://www.Instagram.com/saraspicermusicand Tera Lynne Fister - https://www.Instagram.com/iamfister

This episode of Mr. Pick Me and the Man Hater kicks off with Chesko and Regan in a pre-show debate about whether Chesko's appeal is purely personality-based, before diving into their main topic: the US men's Olympic hockey team's gold medal win being overshadowed by misogynistic locker room behavior, Kash Patel's questionable presence in the celebration, and a Trump phone call that treated the equally-successful women's team as an afterthought. They also touch on other Olympics moments including Alyssa Liu's empowering conditions for returning to figure skating, Eileen Gu's brilliant handling of a dismissive reporter, and a Norwegian athlete's baffling post-medal public confession about cheating on his girlfriend...all framed through Chesko and Regan's mix of utter chaos, personal reflection, and laughs.Support us on Patreon (and hear bonus content!):https://www.patreon.com/mrpickmeandthemanhaterMerch Store:https://www.bonfire.com/store/mr-pick-me--the-manhater/Follow Us on Social Media:https://www.youtube.com/@mrpickmeandthemanhaterhttps://www.instagram.com/mrpickmeandthemanhaterFollow The Manhater: Regan (F the Nice Guy) -TikTok: http://www.tiktok.com/@ftheniceguyInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/buckle.up.babesPodcast: https://ftheniceguypodcast.podbean.com/Follow Mr. Pick Me: Chesko (The Speech Prof) -Substack: http://www.thespeechprof.comTikTok: http://www.TikTok.com/@speechprofInstagram: https://www.Instagram.com/thespeechprofFacebook: https://www.Facebook.com/thespeechprofYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@TheRealSpeechProfTheme song by Sara Spicer - https://www.Instagram.com/saraspicermusicand Tera Lynne Fister - https://www.Instagram.com/iamfister

In this week's lighter episode, Chesko and Regan take a break from the serious stuff and dive into a fun (and surprisingly self-reflective) conversation about what men find "attractive" in women's hobbies. Along the way, they sidetracked on everything from ghosts and psychics, to the joys and anxieties of gym culture, to their mutual struggle with personal style and ultimately concluding that this week's villains were none other than themselves.Support us on Patreon (and hear bonus content!):https://www.patreon.com/mrpickmeandthemanhaterMerch Store:https://www.bonfire.com/store/mr-pick-me--the-manhater/Follow Us on Social Media:https://www.youtube.com/@mrpickmeandthemanhaterhttps://www.instagram.com/mrpickmeandthemanhaterFollow The Manhater: Regan (F the Nice Guy) -TikTok: http://www.tiktok.com/@ftheniceguyInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/buckle.up.babesPodcast: https://ftheniceguypodcast.podbean.com/Follow Mr. Pick Me: Chesko (The Speech Prof) -Substack: http://www.thespeechprof.comTikTok: http://www.TikTok.com/@speechprofInstagram: https://www.Instagram.com/thespeechprofFacebook: https://www.Facebook.com/thespeechprofYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@TheRealSpeechProfTheme song by Sara Spicer - https://www.Instagram.com/saraspicermusicand Tera Lynne Fister - https://www.Instagram.com/iamfister

Chesko and Reagan tackle the bizarre world of "loyalty tests" where dating coaches advise men to catfish their own girlfriends to test fidelity. They dissect why this advice is not just insecure but fundamentally manipulative, explore how influencers profit from terrible relationship guidance, and discuss the broader culture of confident ignorance plaguing social media. The conversation spirals through anti-vax parallels, accountability vs. "cancel culture," and why being called out for bad behavior doesn't make you the victim. Plus: the new theme song reveal, thoughts on forgiveness and political cults, and why "I'm not a bad person" is often the worst defense.Support us on Patreon (and hear bonus content!):https://www.patreon.com/mrpickmeandthemanhaterMerch Store:https://www.bonfire.com/store/mr-pick-me--the-manhater/Follow Us on Social Media:https://www.youtube.com/@mrpickmeandthemanhaterhttps://www.instagram.com/mrpickmeandthemanhaterFollow The Manhater: Regan (F the Nice Guy) -TikTok: http://www.tiktok.com/@ftheniceguyInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/buckle.up.babesPodcast: https://ftheniceguypodcast.podbean.com/Follow Mr. Pick Me: Chesko (The Speech Prof) -Substack: http://www.thespeechprof.comTikTok: http://www.TikTok.com/@speechprofInstagram: https://www.Instagram.com/thespeechprofFacebook: https://www.Facebook.com/thespeechprofYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@TheRealSpeechProfTheme song by Sara Spicer - https://www.Instagram.com/saraspicermusicand Tera Lynne Fister - https://www.Instagram.com/iamfister
