    #8: Short King Spring

    People are declaring it Short King Spring so consider this episode our coronation ceremony. We're vaxed, waxed, and ready to ask for help reaching that thing off the high shelf... but in a sexy way. Short hosts Bo Méndez and Jackson Bird discuss their opinions on the term "short king." Is it empowering? Is it patronizing? How does its usage intersect with gendered assumptions placed on us and how much has being short men impacted us in our lives? One thing's for sure: this episode is not a short king. Buckle in for a long one.

    #5 The Patriarchy Doesn’t Want You To Care | Live From Granger Leadership Academy

    In Everything’s Bigger’s first-ever live recording, Bo Méndez and Jackson Bird talked to attendees of the Granger Leadership Academy about the ways in which the patriarchy discourages us from being unironically enthusiastic about our passions––whether that’s a nerdy interest or taking action on an important social issue.  Watch the video version at youtube.com/c/everythingsbigger everythingsbigger.simplecast.com twitter.com/biggerpod instagram.com/biggerpod Email us at everythingsbigger69@gmail.com   Bo twitter.com/el_enmascarabo instagram.com/el_enmascarabo   Jack twitter.com/jackisnotabird instagram.com/jackisnotabird youtube.com/jackisnotabird   Stuff we mentioned: You can attend the Granger Leadership Academy’s Fall Into Democracy virtual mini-conference 10/15 - 10/16 by registering at granger2020.org/gla The Gayly Prophet

    #3 International Men's Day... But Really

    #2 Don't Toy With Our Emotions

    It’s Christmastime and we’re feeling the joy, the merriment, and the stress. What’s stressing us out? Oh, just the constant gendering of all things in society–including friggin’ children’s toys! Why do toys have to be divided along binary gendered lines? Hosts Bo Méndez and Jackson Bird delve into the history of gendered toys in America, discuss the toys we received as kids (as well as the ones we WANTED to receive), how attempts at gender-neutral dolls aren’t all they’re cracked up to be, and much more in this tangentially* holiday-themed episode. *Jack is wearing red and green plaid flannel in this episode so he would like it noted that it is much more than just tangentially holiday-themed. twitter.com/biggerpod instagram.com/biggerpod Watch the video version at bit.ly/Bigger2 everythingsbigger.simplecast.com/ Email us at everythingsbigger69@gmail.com   Bo twitter.com/blackwork_1 instagram.com/blackwork1 Jack twitter.com/jackisnotabird instagram.com/jackisnotabird youtube.com/jackisnotabird   Stuff we mentioned Pink and Blue: Telling the Boys from the Girls in America by Jo B.
