Cancel Me, Daddy

Katelyn Burns, Christine Grimaldi, Flytrap Media

The pearl clutching about “cancel culture” and “censorship” has become louder and more absurd while also getting more and more play in the media. Journalists Katelyn Burns and Christine Grimaldi see this panic for what it is though: a grift. They take a closer look at these temper tantrums, dispelling myths, laughing at the most outrageous takes, and shedding light on which perspectives are actually being suppressed and left out of the conversation.

    Democrats Were Banned From Saying These Progressive Words??

    According to the centrist group Third Way, Democrats should scrub their vocabulary of 45 words and phrases spanning six pejoratively titled categories: therapy-speak, seminar-room language, organizer jargon, gender/orientation correctness, the shifting language of racial constructs, and explaining away crime. “Was it something I said?” Third Way asks of Democrats’ losing streak. No—winning is something you do. This week, Katelyn and Christine cancel "Centrist Language Nannies,” debunking Third Way and the rest of the pundit class’s overhyped language policing.

    Inside the Secret Conservative Plan to Censor the Internet (ft Siri Dahl)

    Age verification laws are the latest front in the religious right's movement to censor your speech and limit your Internet access, including what information you can access. Whitewashed as interventions to "protect children," these conservative laws and their so-called content moderation actually make it more dangerous for kids, especially trans and queer kids cut off from digital lifelines. No one in Mississippi can access Bluesky, including critical local news alerts, thanks to the state's ban. You know who warned us this would happen, back when Visa and Mastercard first started refusing to process payments for what conservatives—not you—have deemed NSFW video games, the games you can no longer play? Sex workers. This week, Katelyn and Christine interview adult performer and content creator Siri Dahl, one of the first people to call out the Trump administration’s anti-pornography crackdown for what it is—an effort to suppress free speech for all. The Supreme Court’s June decision upholding age verification laws for porn—“corn”—websites arms Trump’s federal lackeys with your data and allows them to more broadly encroach on internet privacy. What is obscene? This government wants to decide and limit what information you can access, from gender-affirming info about trans identities and hormone therapy for trans and menopausal people to reproductive health issues about menstruation, contraception, and abortion. It is a fascinating conversation between intersectional feminists who recognize that sex work is another facet of bodily autonomy. Stream on our YouTube channel—remember to ring the bell!

    Excommunicated, Executed, Deposed: Medieval Cancel Culture Was Ruthless (ft Eleanor Janega)

    Excommunicated! Executed! Deposed! What did today’s equivalent of cancellation look like in Medieval Times? For Edward II, it was losing the throne. For Anne Boleyn, it was losing her head. Get your Justice for Anne Boleyn merch: https://www.cancelmedaddy.store This week, Katelyn and Christine time travel through cancel culture history with Dr. Eleanor Janega, co-host of the hit history podcast “Gone Medieval.” Need a good laugh? Despite the ruthless punishments, it’s a convo on the lighter side that skewers Braveheart propaganda to tell the real story of how “She-Wolf” Isabella of France and her latest lover, Roger Mortimer, deposed her husband, Edward II. Join Cancel Me, Daddy’s alliance with Eleanor of Aquitaine, whose beauty and brains led her two lesser husbands—King Louis VII of France and King Henry II of England—to contribute to her reputation as a “femme fatale.” Then there’s Frederick II, the Holy Roman Emperor who would rather “excommunicate and chill” than crusade and conquer.

    The Scandal That Could Actually Break Trump's Base (ft. Ken Klippenstein)

    Donald Trump is bungling the Jeffrey Epstein scandal in real time. The Trump-Epstein connection is the politics news of the month, with no end in sight to further developments about the extent of the so-called “Epstein files” that may or may not be in the administration’s possession. Trump’s MAGA base is openly angry at him for seemingly the first time over the course of two administrations. Some Republicans have demanded answers, even as GOP leaders have shut down the House to stop Democrats from pursuing the release of further information. Both parties are using the scandal to their advantage, to the detriment of Epstein’s real-life victims and survivors.  This week, Katelyn and Christine interview independent journalist Ken Klippenstein about the Epstein discourse that split MAGA and might finally, finally stick to Teflon Don.

Terrific guy,” Trump booms from a speakerphone. “He’s a lot of fun to be with. It is even said that he likes beautiful women as much as I do, and many of them are on the younger side. No doubt about it — Jeffrey enjoys his social life.” In this episode, we cover: • The documented Trump-Epstein connection timeline • Political psychology of scandal immunity • How conservative media frames controversial stories • Progressive analysis of MAGA loyalty dynamics This isn't just another Trump scandal breakdown - it's a deep dive into American political tribalism and the media narratives that shape public opinion. 💬 What do YOU think?

    The Kingmaker Behind Zohran Mamdani's Upset (ft Brad Lander)

    In this exclusive interview, NYC Comptroller Brad Lander reveals how he became the kingmaker behind Zohran Mamdani's shocking primary victory over Andrew Cuomo. While mainstream media missed the story, we dive deep into the political strategy that helped Mamdani defeat establishment candidates in the race for NYC mayor. Zohran Mamdani's upset victory on his way to possibly becoming the next New York City mayor may have come as a surprise to everyone except Brad Lander. Mamdani, a Queens assemblyman, and Lander, the city’s comptroller, cross-endorsed each other in NYC’s ranked-choice primary voting system for the Democratic mayoral nominee. Mamdani and Lander found common ground in their progressive values and their mutual commitment to defeating the status quo in disgraced former New York State Governor Andrew Cuomo, a billionaire-backed “Democrat” with multiple workplace s*xual harassment allegations in his rearview mirror. With Mamdani on his way to defeating scandal-plagued NYC Mayor Eric Adams and becoming the city’s first Muslim and South Asian and Ugandan mayor, Lander is contemplating his next move. This week, Katelyn and Christine spoke at length with Lander about how he helped Mamdani overcome the Cuomo machine, his controversial ICE arrest and how it changed the primary race, and the political and media discourse over antisemitism after Mamdani’s win. What is Lander’s next move? Katelyn asks! Brad Lander breaks down the progressive cross-endorsement strategy that centrist politicians like Andrew Cuomo and Eric Adams never saw coming. From behind-the-scenes political maneuvering to the future of NYC, this conversation exposes what traditional media won't tell you about New York City politics. Key Topics Covered: -How Brad Lander's endorsement strategy changed the NYC mayor race -Zohran Mamdani's path from outsider to primary winner -The political calculations that shocked Andrew Cuomo supporters -The Media's reaction to Zohran Mamdani's win in the NYC mayor race and the weaponization of antisemitism -Brad Lander's vision for New York City's political future post-Eric Adams Links: Follow Brad Lander on Bluesky: ‪@bradlander.bsky.social‬ and Instagram: @brad.landerNo, it is not misspelled.

    We Debunked the New York Times Anti-Trans Podcast (ft. Sandy Allen)

    The New York Times’ "The Protocol" podcast was designed to cast doubt on the efficacy of gender-affirming care for youth. The podcast recycled previous NYT’s reporting that platformed dubious sources in the absence of a “smoking gun,” let alone any credible evidence. Yet, the Supreme Court would take the claims seriously, citing the Times in last week’s United States v. Skrmetti 6–3 decision upholding Tennessee’s ban on minors’ access to gender-affirming care—violating their civil and human rights.. “Letting the states decide,” as we’ve seen with post-Roe abortion access, endangers people’s quality of life and their very lives. This week, Katelyn and Christine have a robust discussion with mental health reporter Sandy Allen, a trans journalist who once worked with the host of “The Protocol.” Together, Katelyn, Christine, and Sandy debunk the Times’ reporting and expose numerous issues with the new anti-trans podcast in the context of the Supreme Court’s wreckage.
