the Patriarchy Show

A happily married family man, Ian Erickson is an author and religious scholar. He lives in a lovely suburban home with his wife and 3 kids. Pat Dixon is a three-times divorced standup comic with no kids. He lives in the smallest room in New York City, where he enjoys chain smoking, and that's about it. Their coverage of U.S. news, politics and culture is a lively, irreverent survey of the most pressing issues of the day, which highlights the absurdity of pandemic-era living and the stupefying complexities of clown-world logic. In this crisp and funny - but always accurate and truthful - podcast hour, Ian and Pat put aside their differences to mutually confront the rampant dishonesty of our media, and to say what will never be said by any of the so-called journalists who run interference for federal and state government: That our leaders are attempting to induce a mass psychosis that will forever alter American life.
