    Science Fiction with Jon Del Arroz

    Science Fiction author and journalist Jon Del Arroz was canceled before being canceled was cool (2016) and sued WorldCon for banning him in 2018. He discusses author communities, latinx armor, being both marginalized and having white privilege, crowdfunding for comics, Trump Derangement Syndrome, the twist of no twist, small presses, Marion Zimmer Bradley, Neil Gaiman, John Scalzi, the noncompliant majority, the swing of the political pendulum, alien pronouns, Revelation, bringing God’s kingdom on earth, Christian nationalism, and abortion vans. Cori reminisces about when science fiction was more libertarian, and Nina asks: what about the weirdos?  Links: Jon’s website: https://delarroz.com/ Jon’s YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/c/jondelarroz Jon on Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/stores/author/B01NBOZVCP Jon on Twitter: https://x.com/jondelarroz Agents of H.A.G.: https://store.ninapaley.com/product/agents-of-h-a-g-comic-book/ Compliance Comix: https://store.ninapaley.com/product/compliance-comix/ Science Fiction & Fantasy Writers Association: https://www.sfwa.org/ Marion Zimmer Bradley: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marion_Zimmer_Bradley Wikipedia article on the Sad Puppies: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sad_Puppies Hugo Award nominees (best novel) on Wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hugo_Award_for_Best_Novel John Scalzi: https://whatever.scalzi.com/2013/07/16/and-now-here-i-am-in-a-regency-dress/ Nina’s outdated bio (2005): https://ninapaley.com/bio.html --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/heterodorx/support

    Queering the Law with Judge TERF

    The Honorable Justice Elspeth B Cypher (Retired) left her appointment on the Supreme Judicial Court of Massachusetts to become the most-interviewed yet least-heard Heterodorx guest. Cypher discusses the Biden administrations attempts to replace sex with gender in Title IX, and the efforts of 20+ states and Moms for Liberty to push back. We also cover women in Afghanistan, the Chevron Doctrine, federal money held over foster care, Tickle vs. Giggle, Tennessee vs Cardona, stays, staying stays, appeals, districts, the MA Supreme Court-to-TERF pipeline, faith in the judicial system, why pi does not equal 3 in Indiana, making unpopular decisions as a judge, retroactively transing Ruth “Theyder” Ginsburg, biological height, masculinity, fighting oppression with more oppression, flexibility vs functionality of law, hijacking compassion, and boobs. Cori gives Elspeth his Trans Blessing but doesn’t have enough testosterone to give Nina his Andro-Blessing, proving once again there is no justice.  Links: The Alabama case Cori was talking about: https://media.ca11.uscourts.gov/opinions/pub/files/202211707.2.pdf scold’s bridle: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scold%27s_bridle WoLF: https://womensliberationfront.org/ Chevron Doctrine: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chevron_U.S.A.,_Inc._v._Natural_Resources_Defense_Council,_Inc. https://www.whitecase.com/insight-alert/us-supreme-court-strikes-down-chevron-doctrine-what-you-need-know Tickle vs. Giggle (Australia): https://quillette.com/2024/08/27/tickle-vs-giggle/ TN vs Cardona: https://adfmedia.org/case/state-tennessee-v-cardona Fight the Bears: https://indamidle.substack.com/p/fight-the-bears Email Judge TERF: elspeth@womensliberationfront.org --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/heterodorx/support

    Gender in the Church with Brandon Showalter

    Journalist, denominational mutt, and little-o orthodox Christian Brandon Showalter covers the “gender beat” at the Christian Post. He fills us in on how gender ideology is infiltrating churches, and answers: What is a Christian? What is gnosticism? How do denominations differ? What are human rights? What state has the worst drivers? (Maryland.) We also discuss the Nicene Creed, Reality’s Last Stand, heresy, redemption, the flesh, self-idolatry, bioethics, the rise of the “nones”, evangelism, zealotry, sex scandals, martyrdom, persecution complexes, and how resistance to gender ideology is overcoming political divides. In the words of the world’s most beloved un-killable zombie, you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free (John 8:31).

    The Age of Bourgeois Guilt with Gary Saul Morson

    Before White Guilt afflicted American liberals, the Russian intelligentsia set a precedent of their own. Famous professor of Russian literature Gary Saul Morson joins the Dorx to talk about Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn’s literary masterpiece The Gulag Archipelago, which leads to so much more: the self-hatred of educated people; political orthodoxy; peer monitoring; doublethink; whether consciously telling falsehoods is lying; neurodivergence; literary appropriation; terrorism as a career path; the charisma of ruthlessness; and Nina’s fetish for shoe polish. Solzhenitsyn saw the US heading in the same direction as Soviet Russia, and if you listen to this episode you might too.

    Armed and Gay and Running for President with Chase Oliver

    Libertarian Party candidate for US President Chase Oliver forced a runoff election in Georgia in 2022, is a former Democrat, loves guns, hates taxes, was disappointed in Obama, is the first openly gay presidential candidate on most ballots, is dyslexic and dysgraphic, likes audiobooks, would like to weaken the office of President, will be 39 in August, wants government out of education (and pretty much everything else), supports the harm reduction model of addition management, implies free market will solve everything, and sounds like a politician. Cori earnestly tries to convince Oliver of the problems of medicalizing “trans kids”; Nina pleads for protections for individuals and asks if Pacifism is a luxury belief; and our interview is briefly interrupted by a power outage.  This is the first in our series of Heterodorx Interviews With US Presidential Candidates. We’re waiting for the Trump and Biden campaigns to get in touch so we can finish.  Links: Find Chase @chaseforliberty on all major social media platforms Chase Oliver website: https://www.votechaseoliver.com/ Chase Oliver 2024 Explained - Illustrate to Educate video: https://youtu.be/pGh2cYIPWsI?si=4xDXcoiqb6z4z_oI Against Intellectual Property by Stephan Kinsella: https://mises.org/library/book/against-intellectual-property Our Stephan Kinsella episode: https://www.heterodorx.com/podcast/episode-10-i-p-everywhere-featuring-guest-heterodork-stephan-kinsella/ Nina’s IndyGoGo canceling: https://blog.ninapaley.com/2023/01/06/indiegogo-cancels-agents-of-h-a-g/ --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/heterodorx/support

    Ideology Obscuring Orientation with Jules Louise

    Jules Louise was same-sex attracted, but more importantly she wanted to be a Good Person and “safe space for others” — so wound up married to a man. How did that happen? In this nuanced, heartfelt, and open conversation, Jules recalls her indoctrination into an ideology which destabilized her understanding of the world and herself, and her later emergence, along with that of her husband, detransitioned autogynephile Ray Alex Williams. We discuss Social Justice Camp, the Five Isms, hormones, polyamory, crossdressing vs dressing in crosses, internalized homophobia, Marxist Feminist analysis, the importance of material reality, phenomena, reconceptualizing vulnerability, and leaving the cult of gender for the cult of Taylor Swift. Plus: Cori correctly guesses the sex of a “they,” Nina is a cruel and horrible person who will never be invited to dinner at some people’s houses, and a proposed TERF-Tranny Christmas in July!    Links: Our Ray Alex Williams episode: https://www.heterodorx.com/podcast/episode-121-unblinded-by-the-light-with-ray-alex-williams/ Gender: A Wider Lens: https://www.widerlenspod.com/ Phenomena: https://youtu.be/Dnk0Be4a0aw?si=n-Q4Au7QE8_i1eqy Our Jamie Reed episode: https://www.heterodorx.com/podcast/episode-126-mitigating-the-damage-with-jamie-reed/ Nina’s Sex-Pozzie Memoirs: https://4w.pub/sex-pos-memoirs/ The Man Who Would Be Queen by Michael Bailey (free PDF): https://faculty.wcas.northwestern.edu/JMichael-Bailey/TMWWBQ.pdf Caliban and the Witch by Silvia Federici: https://www.akpress.org/calibanandthewitch.html The Lesbian Heresy: a Feminist Perspective by Sheila Jeffreys: https://sheila-jeffreys.com/book/the-lesbian-heresy-a-feminist-perspective/ For more information about RISE on The Land for WOMEN, email Char at riseontheland2020s@gmail.com --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/heterodorx/support
