    "You Don't Look Autistic" (ENCORE)

    "You Don't Look Autistic" (ENCORE)

    What happens when adult women discover they're autistic? Cristen busts the gender stereotypes and neurotypical myths of Autism Spectrum Disorder with help from unladies who've been there. The Loudest Girl in the World host and producer, Lauren Ober, details the (expensive!) jungle gym she had to cross for a middle-age diagnosis. Meanwhile, listener Sarah has mixed feelings about self-diagnosis, and listener Anna feels finally free to unmask. Highlights include: refrigerator-mom blame, too-tight ponytails, a queer correlation and America's Next Top Model cringe.

    Comstockery!

    Comstockery!

    Could an 1873 law that hasn't been enforced in nearly a century be a national abortion ban just waiting to happen? Legal friend of the pod Natalie Birnbaum (Repro Solutions) returns to explain what the Comstock Act is, why it's getting so much attention lately and whether it could it ban medication abortion and even birth control. Highlights include: Gilded Age abortionist Madame Restell, a postmaster general gone wild, fake-out abortion referenda and Justice Samuel Alito's revisionist legal history.

    Magical Overthinking

    Magical Overthinking

    What do vision boards and Princess Diana conspiracy theories have in common? They both rely on a kind of magical thinking called proportionality bias. It's one of many cognitive biases that returning guest Amanda Montell connects to all the woo-woo and delulu going around these days. From the sunk cost fallacy of toxic relationships to the halo effect of female celebs to the declinism of everyday doomsday speak, Amanda makes even the most mindboggling and brainrotting realities of today's (mis)information overload more bearable.
    Highlights include: Beyonce's vegan surprise, Charli XCX stans, Earth Mamas, therapy influencers, TikTok astrologers and "learning to stomach a sense of irresolution."
    Amanda's new book is The Age of Magical Overthinking: Notes on Modern Irrationality.

Tnank you ladies

C&C I’ve never written to you but I’ve gotta thank you for all those years helping me get through the day in mexican catholic community, I started listening when I was 13, I’m 18 now. You ladies were there for me when ever i felt like everything i believed in was wrong, i was told on a daily basis that feminism was evil and that feminists were a bunch of sinners. In a way you along with many other amazing women i discovered online, helped me find to courage to speak up for what i believed in. You were also there the a long summer when i worked in a corn field for eight hour under the sun and when i was sent to a village with no internet to think about my sins. I have so much to thank you for and this episode where you featured a mexican girl talking about how much harder it is here in Mexico to have access to safe abortion was really moving because even if personally I've never been in a situation where I’ve needed one being involved with the feminist movement in my country has opened my eyes to the reality girls all across the country live in. As a catholic it was very hard for me to come to terms with my support for reproductive rights but I’ve finally done it and i have to thank you again for that.
When the SMNTY podcast ended i was very upset because i felt like a part of my feminist world was donde and don't get me wrong i love E&B but it is a different podcast it is amazing but different. I love that you guys are back in the podcasting world! Thank you so much again for everything you’ve done for me and i would like to suggest bringing back listeners’ mail, we all learned so much from it i hope it will be back soon. Thank you again!

Love from Mexico
Fatima
