Episode: 232: "Man of the week," pronouns, etc. The boys discuss woke efforts to get rid of "man" as the description of the species, and the narcissism of pronouns.
Description: The boys drink and review Sweetwater's Glacial India Pale Cold Ale, then discuss the man of the week, pronouns, and other gender confusions.
A regular listener objected to "man" of the week. The boys discuss.
Do we have to change "fireman" to "fireperson"? What is the point here?
And how does this relate to pronouns and other "gender" issues of the day?
Some people think it's "inclusive" to say "he or she," or other silliness. The boys discuss that at length.
