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

    Neither of us realized there was an International Men’s Day and, when we discovered it, we thought it was probably a bunch of Men’s Rights Activist BS. Turns out, parts of it are… kinda great and uplifting?

    #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.
