There's been an increasing amount of very warranted focus on the damage that negative body images have had on girls & women. But very little on how body image issues affect men.
Yes, it's a problem. Boys are fed media and advertising messages that stunt their development emotionally, demolish their sense of self & confidence and lead to acting out in ways that harm them and everyone around them.
@stevenjkerzner, @feezydoesit, @andylandradio @aronseal and special guest @edthesock get real about their relationship to their body image, how it's impacted them and how they deal with it. Plus, plenty of laughs as usual. This is FU_Politics, not CNN.
Important, honest, frank & funny conversations among real people who say what you've been thinking - that's FU_Politics. Help keep us going by becoming a patron at patreon.com/funetworktv or give us a one-time boost on Paypal at funetworktv@gmail.com!

MADNESS!
Trying to talk political realities, not political ideologies, with #BernieBros who can't seem to tell the difference between them. Is it lack of comprehension or lack of interest in comprehension?
COVID-19 - a global pandemic has international trade shut down, whole countries quarantined, hoarding toilet paper at Walmart, public spaces empty, the worst stock market rash since 1929, the world economy plunging toward recession....but is the panic justified or an overreaction considering in many countries the mortality rate is lower than the annual influenza toll?
Steven Kerzner (@stevenjkerzner) and Stephen Lautens (@stephenlautens) dissect the world's departure from sanity in ways that will no doubt enrage, engage and enlighten. Hopefully in that order.

Grief is hard enough to handle, but when you're also struggling with a mental illness, grief can change you in ways you never anticipated. And some of them are positive, like the story of today's guest.
In this second episode of our Exploring Grief series, Michelle Budiwski is joined by Paul Marlow from www.tallpaul.ca to discuss how the loss of his father brought his own mental health into question and how his grief has turned his life around as he now dedicates his time to help others find their way with mental health struggles through fitness, diet and personal growth.
Through his own grief, Paul is breaking down barriers and stigmas as he openly explores his own mental health and through the creation of Never Alone apparel is dedicated to continuing to provide online help to suffering peers who need someone to talk to - for free!

Few issues ignite passions, debates, arguments, tempers and violence than Abortion. But the issue runs deeper than "Pro-Choice" or "Pro-Life."
Roze Jardine and Michelle Budiwski (@Butterflymbca) join host Liana Kerzner (@redlianak) for a discussion about how race, poverty, mental health, and Indigenous rights factor in to the seemingly unending debate on abortion. Though abortion rights are more under fire in the US, where the Supreme Court will once again rule on further restrictions on abortion access, the debate in Canada is far from settled.
Liana Kerzner is a journalist, award-winning TV producer & comedy writer, feminist, Youtube influencer, college lecturer and video game editorialist.
Michelle Budiwski is a social activist, author motivational speaker living in rural Manitoba just outside of Brandon with her husband and four children. Michelle hosts her own real-life, real-talk podcast on FU_Politics,"Keeping It Real."
Producer and playwright Roze Jardine' is a life coach and a youth advocate, who uses the arts as a catalyst to bring to light a variety of social issues for the purpose of dialogue, community engagement and social change.

The lost art of Critical Thinking for people who like to be right more than twice a day.
Liana Kerzner (@redlianak) and Maus Merryjest (@wordofmaus) commit more political thought crimes - this time daring to talk about stereotypes in politics! Which politicians use stereotypes to their benefit? Which politicians are hurt by stereotypes? Also - why Lady Gaga could get elected president (seriously)!
*Note: This podcast was recorded before Elizabeth Warren suspended her presidential campaign.

Why does anger seem the default, go-to setting for men's reactions to tough or uncomfortable situations?
Generations of social programming on 'manly' behaviour has created a psyche men have been trapped in and it's hurt their friends, loved ones, co-workers, job prospects - and themselves.
So what's the reason men find comfort in anger? What's really going on under the surface? How can men turn off the "on" button? Can they? This is an episode of Mensplaining that men, women, boys and girls should listen to - it's an important dialogue that needs to happen more often - and despite the serious topic, there's also a lot of humour between the host and panelists, including our special guest panelist, therapist Dale Curd.
Dale Curd is a therapist who has specialized in talking to men about the issues, emotions and inner conflicts men face every day, but rarely talk about. In 2019, Dale launched themenslist.com, an online directory of mental health and wellness professionals who offer support and information to men seeking counselling in Canada, the US and UK. As well, he and his wife Kimberly Alexander wrote the book Living Lightly, Bring Happiness and Calm To Your EveryDay, published by HarperCollins.
Steven Kerzner hosts with panelists from our Mensplaining bullpen:
Paul Doroshenko, Q.C. is an experienced criminal defence lawyer with a practice devoted to criminal defence and drunk driving law in British Columbia. His main goal is ensuring that his clients avoid a criminal record.
Vancouver's Andy Willis hosts Andyland radio every Wednesday at 10:30PM Pacific time on CIRT FM and can be streamed 24/7 on andyland radio.com
Also on the west coast is Hafeez Noorani is one of the most sought after digital analysis & marketing experts in the field and the very excellent producer of this show.

Why is it so hard to have a reasoned, intellectual or realistic conversation with Bernie Sanders supporters - especially his infamous 'Bernie Bros'?
Maus Meryjest and Liana Kerzner (@redlianak) attempt to calmly, rationally and dispassionately discuss Bernie Sanders' policies and his movement... and fail repeatedly, resorting to singing show tunes to calm down.
Why is this particular Democratic candidate for president so difficult to discuss without drama?
I'll bet some of you are already angry just from reading this. See?
Listen for some salient points on why Critical Thinking is not the forte of ardent Bernie supporters who want Trump out of office, because if it were, they wouldn't be ardent Bernie supporters.

FEMINIST! FEMINISM! There are few words that trigger such immediate emotional reactions - in men and women.
Why???
What scares men about feminism/feminists? Are men scared of feminism/feminists? What does the concept of 'feminism' mean to men? Are there different kinds of feminism and different kinds of feminists? Can men really be feminists?
The answers to all these questions will probably surprise you. That is, if you're not too triggered to listen. And if you do listen, make sure to leave 5 star reviews and good comments!

The Men's Rights Movement - an angry association of men (and some women) who feel society is conspiring to rob men of their rights - and give them to women. Where do they get their ideas? What evidence supports their grievances? Or are they simply driven by emotionally charged rhetoric that hijacks reasoning.
Do the main talking points regarding "Men's Rights" hold up to seriously scrutiny? Join Maus Merryjest (@bywordofmaus) and Liana Kerzner (@redlianak) on a journey down that rabbit hole, crashing through 2300 years of philosophical thought along the way!
Critical thinking - boy, does the world need more of that or what?! And we present it on FU_Politics paired with civility, insight and - yes- fun!
