The fallout from Thursday’s show is real. Producer Rebecca joins the conversation from South Africa to voice her frustration over Justin and Colm’s "Manosphere" discussion. Is the "sidelining of men" a reality, or is it simply a shift in a social balance that has been one-sided for centuries?


Justin doubles down on the psychology of young men under 25, citing the data that suggests a growing "minority" feeling among males, while Rebecca argues that the "ascendancy" of women is a hard-fought correction of history. From the "austere" walls of Justin’s mystery room to the viral influence of figures like Scott Galloway and Jimmy Carr, this is an unfiltered dive into the shifting social landscape of 2026.


In this episode, we uncover:

  • The Global Feed: Recording from Ireland, France, and the River Cowie in South Africa.
  • The "Incensed" Producer: Why Rebecca had to speak up about the sidelining of men.
  • The Ascendancy Argument: Are women taking over, or just catching up?.
  • The Jimmy Carr Paradox: Why comedy and "man-influencers" aren't solving the underlying psychological crisis.
  • The Minority Feeling: The statistics behind the disenfranchised young male.
