95. Pioneering Women's Refuges | Erin Pizzey
This episode was recorded on January 4th, 2024. Erin Pizzey, born in China with her twin sister Kate, settled in England after a childhood of frequent moves due to her diplomat father. In 1971, she opened the world's first women's refuge in Chiswick, London, and later established numerous shelters during the 1970s and 1980s. Erin became well-known for her court battles over overcrowded refuges and her appearances on top chat shows, earning a reputation as a crusader for the destitute. Her advocacy extended to squatting in properties to provide shelter. Erin brought domestic violence to public attention, compelling authorities to address the issue. She moved to Santa Fe, New Mexico, in the 1980s after receiving death threats for highlighting female-perpetrated abuse, as detailed in her book "Prone to Violence." She returned to London in 1997 and advocated for male abuse victims, becoming a patron of ManKind Initiative and Families Need Fathers. In 2013, Erin joined the advisory board of A Voice for Men and appeared in the 2016 documentary "The Red Pill." In 2023, she was featured in "Erin: Beyond the Bruises." Erin authored several cult classics, including "Scream Quietly or the Neighbours Will Hear" and "This Way to the Revolution: A Memoir." She believes domestic abuse is generational and not gender-specific, advocating for multi-generational therapy to break the cycle of violence.

94. Trust and Faith in Politics | Alex Vanopslagh
This episode was recorded on December 19th, 2023. Born in 1991, Alex has been the leader of the Liberal Alliance since 2019. He took over a party on the verge of extinction and has since managed to turn the party into a pillar of the Danish center-right. This was achieved by a political reorientation from a globalist and hyper-individualist platform to a far more communitarian platform, emphasizing not merely the power of personal freedom but the meaningfulness of responsible citizenship – coupled with a reinvigorated and innovative style of political messaging that made him and the party into the youth favorite at the most recent election. Alex' message was encapsulated in the words "Du kan godt" ("You can do it"), a very contentious claim in a welfare state such as Denmark. Alex would like to bring attention to his own book, "Vejen til ansvar" ("The Road to Responsibility") – even though it's a bit inaccessible to the non-Danish speaking audience.
