    Ep. 13 - How Far Can They Go: Are we reaching peak trans?

    We recorded this episode on September 17, just days prior to the start of Amy’s disciplinary hearing before the British Columbia College of Nurses and Midwives. The allegation? Knowing there’s a biological difference between females and males. The impetus for this episode was an explosive story that Anna Slatz, editor-in-chief of Reduxx Magazine, had broken just the day before: Ontario High School Teacher Seen Wearing Massive Prosthetic Bust to Class. The story immediately went viral in both the corporate and independent media internationally – well, of course it did. The bizarre situation sits at the intersection of absurdity, public policy, gender identity, feminist theory and child safeguarding. Whether to express ridicule or outrage, this story has absolutely everyone talking. And talk we did – this is our longest episode to date. Also joining us to discuss a few more completely insane gender ideology stories were Mia Ashton, contributor at The Post Millennial, and Heather Mason, founding member of caWsbar - Canadian Women's Sex-Based Rights. Recorded September 17, 2022 on Twitter Spaces.

    Ep. 12 - The Haters Inside the Canadian "Anti-Hate" Network

    What is hate and just who exactly are the haters? Amy and Esme felt it was high time to expose the haters inside the Canadian Anti-Hate Network, an apparently independent non-governmental organization funded by Trudeau’s Liberals to the tune of $268,000 per year. Their stated mandate is to "monitor hate groups, far-right groups and hate crimes in Canada." However, the CAHN, in its overzealous search for hatred, has targeted a number of groups and individuals in Canada who are respectfully asking legitimate questions about the Trudeau regime’s unconstitutional legislation and mandates. Their targets include gender critical women and pro-freedom journalists and activists. Joining us in the discussion were Jonathan Kay, Editor at Quillette and op-ed contributor at the National Post, Andy Lee, independent investigative journalist, Libby Emmons, Editor-in-Chief at The Post Millennial, Raine McLeod, Founder of Alberta Radical Feminists and Mia Ashton, contributor at The Critic and The Post Millennial.

    Veteran investigative reporter Sue-Ann Levy joins Amy and Esme to talk about her recent forays into exposing gender identity ideology in the school system, how journalism has changed over the 30+ years she's practiced her craft and what it's like to be a conservative lesbian. During Q&A, evolutionary biologist Colin Wright pops in to give us a sneak peek into what he's discovered about Egale while working on a piece about the LGBT lobby group.

    Ep. 10 - Heather Mason and Linda Blade

    We're back from hiatus! Esme finally convinced Amy to get into a Twitter Space and we invited our good friends Heather Mason and Coach Linda Blade to talk about everything you ever wanted to know about males in women's prisons and sports but were (not) afraid to ask. We think the Space experiment went well, especially because it gets us out of the echo chamber and into the wider online community -- and it allows us to do a live Q&A. We were lucky enough to have women's prison advocate Amie Ichikawa grab a mic and share her experiences in the California penal system. So if you enjoyed this episode, follow us on Twitter and join our next Space. See you there!

    Ep. 9 - Cancel Club: Amy & Esme

    Amy and Esme talk about the personal and professional repercussions of being an outspoken gender critical woman in Canada after Amy recently went public about her professional association investigating her for alleged "transphobia". It gets messy and real.
