  • Love/hate this podcast

    I enjoyed listening to all of the episodes of wider lens but am disappointed with the activist tone and narrow mindedness of this reboot. The hosts are convinced there is no rational possibility a brain could be wired in such a way to make someone more aligned with the opposite sex, and that any resulting medicalization could positively impact those identifying as trans. It’s all a “delusion” in their minds and must be treated as such. No exceptions.

    Feelings of gender incongruity, and the... more

  • Love it a request

    Mia and Stella have accomplished so much for our culture in recent years. I’m huge fans of each for many years and love this podcast. A request of our beloved Stella: Please call men men. That is, “trans-identifying man” is correct, honest, and respectful. “Trans woman” is an impossibility and it is to uphold a fallacy that only exists in the mind of a single person. We must maintain honest language, including honest pronouns, at all costs, unapologetically, as there is nothing truer or more eth... more

  • Forget the naysayers

    It’s a great podcast. Not just ‘yes’ guests. It explores difficult questions in an easy way.

    It gives time to some that when challenged don’t have answers. We need to hear those non answers. Because the activists have been avoiding them far too long.

  • James Lindsey

    James, take a breath. Mia and Stella said about 20 words the whole podcast. Stella even at point had to say, " stay on the tracks".

    Look, James is very intelligent but he hurts his cause by talking in chapters.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

What Has Marxism Got To Do With Transgender Ideology? with Emmet Connor
Q: Is trans activism part of a larger globalist project or a standalone issue?
The guest contends it is one facet of a coordinated, internationalist strategy tied to Marxist theory, designed to destabilize traditional social structures and push for a revolution.
What Has Marxism Got To Do With Transgender Ideology? with Emmet Connor
Q: What do you mean by national sovereignty as an antidote to globalism?
He argues that national sovereignty, skeptical of international bureaucracies, helps protect educational content and borders, and opposes open borders, while cautioning about the unintended consequences of global governance.
What Has Marxism Got To Do With Transgender Ideology? with Emmet Connor
Q: Could you trace back how you came to write The Red Pandemic and how you arrived at this conclusion?
The guest explains that his interest in communism began around 2012, expanded through studying the cultural dimensions of Marxism, globalism, and their connections to woke movements, and led to the book.
Alex Byrne & Moti Gorin
Q: If the label transgender did not exist, would adults who currently identify as transgender be better off?
They discuss that removing the label could disrupt lives and identities; some would be worse off due to established social roles, while others might benefit from a clearer understanding of their motivations without oversimplified categorization.
Alex Byrne & Moti Gorin
Q: How do you define a transgender child, and is it an adult-created label or a child-created category?
They argue that there is no easy definition; instead, the category is historically contingent and socially constructed, with paradigm cases like Jazz Jennings illustrating that children can be recognized as transgender within a broader social framework.
