I ask my friend Bob Jensen, a *cough* anti-sexist man. [Update!! In my conversation with Umut Özkırımlı I am afraid I mis-aged Bob Jensen who is in fact 64 NOT 67! My sincere apologies to Bob]
Lovely conversation! I graduated university in 2018, the year Dr. Jensen retired, and I regret to say that I was a liberal feminist. I never harassed anyone for radical feminist beliefs, but I’m sure I contributed to an environment of self-censorship. I’m grateful for the true feminists and allies that were patient with me, and I try to extend my patience and plant seeds of doubt in my sisters 💜
Thank you, Julie and Bob, for all your work. I just wanted to let you know that it reaches places you might not expect and helps shape my point of view.
I’m a big fan of your newsletter but you should know the podcast is basically unlistenable in my car. Blocked and Reported had this problem when they started on Patreon and they managed to fix it; I’d really appreciate it if you could look into it! I pretty much only listen to podcasts when I’m driving so it’s sad to miss so many of yours.
Hello to Julie or moderators: Just to say that the sound is awfully low on these podcasts, this one especially. So, sadly, it's pretty hard to hear. The cause isn't my computer, I don't think, as on other podcasts, the sound is fine. Nevertheless thank you so much for this interview, as well as your channel!
I could name a host of writers and commentators, including Professor Janice Fiamengo and William Collins, author of "The Empathy Gap: Male Disadvantages and the Mechanisms of Their Neglect" and "The Destructivists".
Janice's SubStack website is full of gems on feminism, a recent example - and one of particular relevance to TERFs - is "Anti-trans Feminists Are Now Reaping the Whirlwind (But they won’t admit they sowed the wind)":
Great conversation! thank you both
This was a terrific interview and I look forward to your sharing the joint project.

Brilliant interview.
Thank you for sharing this
Please remove these horrible comments by this anti-feminist sexist woman-hater Mike Buchanan.
