Episode Details
Back to EpisodesHow To Be A Horrible, Mean, Bad Woman (feat. Horrible Mean Bad Woman)
Description
In this week’s episode of The Audaci-Tea Podcast, hosts Lisa and Sovereign are joined by returning guest Sarah, also known as Horrible Mean Bad Woman, to ask the question men desperately don’t want you to:
What if being a “good woman” is the problem?
Together, they break down how women are socially conditioned into constant niceness, emotional labor, and moral responsibility, all while men are never held to the same standards. Sarah unpacks the power of embracing the “horrible, mean, bad woman” identity as a rejection of impossible expectations designed to keep women compliant.
Together they explore how male behavior is excused while women are expected to absorb harm gracefully, how agreeing with men’s negative stereotypes can expose the absurdity of their logic, and why redefining your identity outside of patriarchy is a necessary step toward real autonomy.
But first, in Tea Time, Lisa and Sovereign discuss the shocking murder case involving singer D4vd, the reality behind churches requiring sexual misconduct insurance, Nikki Glaser’s comments about non-monogamy on the Call Her Daddy podcast, and the internet’s reaction to influencer MJ Gray’s engagement.
Later, they open the mailbag for one of the wildest listener stories yet, covering a journey from trad marriage to dominatrix to taking down her pedophile father.
