Today we’re talking about Aella the e-girl and “rationalist," who is probably also pretty smelly — at least if her birthday gangbang breakdown is to be believed. She's known for issuing controversial polls about sex and relationships, and then scrapping with people online about the results. June Sternbach & Josh Boerman from the Ill Conceived podcast join us to trace Aella's history and her impact on the broader culture, for better or for worse.

June Sternbach from Kill The Computer and Ill Conceived goes guesto mode! We have a vibrant and wide-ranging conversation on the things that have us going sicko mode: live comedy, Pokemon, Super Smash Bros Melee, Lost, folk punk, board games where you fuckin lie, and a twitter user dedicated to defending the masculine, Christian values of Ninjago. This one was a great time, and you will have a great time when you listen to it idiot

Pete Hegseth’s résumé maps the trajectory of a man who failed upward from Fox News host to Donald Trump’s Secretary of Defense. As Brett Kavanaugh’s Supreme Court hearings proved, sexual assault allegations are rarely a roadblock to a powerful job in the Trump administration. In fact, Donald Trump has consistently rewarded Hegseth for years of documented bad behavior—from financial mismanagement of veterans organizations to the relentless promotion of toxic masculinity. Hegseth presents himself as the prototypical "man’s man," seemingly more invested in a pull-up challenge with a shirtless Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. than with abiding by the rules of war or the gravity of the Pentagon. This week, Kill the Computer podcaster June Sternbach joins Katelyn and Christine to unpack Pete Hegseth’s pathetic masculinity complex. We dissect how mainstream media sanitized his record, and how rewarding his fragile masculinity both reflects and reinforces the darkest corners of U.S. political culture. 🔔 Stream full episodes on our YouTube channel—remember to subscribe and ring the bell so you never miss a media deep dive! 🎧 Listen via Apple Podcasts or Spotify. 👕 Be sure to check out the merch store—Merch Me, Daddy! https://cancelmedaddy.store/ 🔗 Support the show on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/cancelmedaddy Episode Links: Follow June Sternbach on Bluesky, @junlper.beer Nick Schwartz for USA Today : Fox News host hits man with an axe on live TV Gabriel Sherman for Vanity Fair : Trump’s Defense Secretary Pick Pete Hegseth Said to Face Previous Sexual Misconduct Allegation Sharon LaFraniere and Julie Tate for The New York Times : Pete Hegseth’s Mother Accused Her Son of Mistreating Women for Years Jane Mayer for The New Yorker : Pete Hegseth’s Secret History Chloe Melas, Courtney Kube and Sarah Fitzpatrick for NBC News: Pete Hegseth's drinking worried colleagues at Fox News, sources tell NBC News Julie Tsirkin, Sarah Fitzpatrick and Courtney Kube for NBC News: Senators receive affidavit containing new allegations against Pete Hegseth, who denies the claims Jeffrey Goldberg for The Atlantic : The Trump Administration Accidentally Texted Me Its War Plans Calum Marsh for The New York Times : 100 Push-Ups and 50 Pull-Ups in Under 10 Minutes.
