Excellent

The podcast I wish I could have had as a teenager and also one I would have loved my daughters had access to.

I think Clementine hates men

I’ve listened to quite a few episodes of Dear Clementine and honestly there’s a bitter woman in there ..
I’m a forty something year old woman so we are from same generation but she’s bitter ( not in a good way ) and generally gives a awful lecture rant on the evils of nearly all men. Her feminism is 1970s with a dash of contemporary woke. Latest episodes in particular are unbearable. Perhaps peri menopause is hitting I have had similar female friends turn strangely militant and nasty as they age … I still might listen for a chuckle … x
