Virtual Late-Night Dorm Room with Lev Polyakov
Russian-American animator Lev Polyakov hosts and produces the Break The Rules podcast, which brings together extremely diverse viewpoints from the online testosteronosphere. A thoughtful, well-spoken, and generous conversationalist, Lev can talk to anyone - even the Dorx. After discussing such serious topics as the war in Ukraine, America’s military-industrial-propaganda complex, and “counter-semitism,” Lev moves on to the Estrogen experience (Corinna’s and Nina’s differ greatly), alchemy, waking dreams, trippy psychedelic meditation stuff, his vibrating Third Eye, generating 3-D movies inside his head, Torah, and the New York animation scene of 2004.

Fediverse Follies with Alex Gleason
Where do you go when you get banned by fecebook and twitter - or, conversely, when you think mainstream social media isn’t censoring enough? To the Fediverse, where free-speech refugees and would-be Orwellian dictators form ever-more polarized online communities. Returning Heterodork Alex Gleason, who created the popular Soapbox platform, relates some recent behind-the-scenes Fedi drama. The same tribal politics skewing mainstream social media, guide Fedi developers as well - but with less money! This makes the Fediverse the worst social media system, except for all the others. (Which are so much worse you really should join the Fedi.)Episode 8: Guest Heterodork Alex Gleason: https://www.heterodorx.com/podcast/episode-8-guest-heterodork-alex-gleason/Pleroma Is Dead: https://blog.alexgleason.me/pleroma-is-dead/The first and best woman-centered social media: spinster.xyzNina’s terrorist Fedi site: neenster.orgAlex's Fedi instance: gleasonator.comSoapbox: https://soapbox.pub/Join the Fediverse: https://jointhefedi.com/--- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/heterodorx/support Get full access to Heterodorx Podcast at heterodorx.substack.com/subscribe

Maud Maron, TERF for Congress
A defense lawyer and Democrat who knows what a woman is, Maud Maron is running for Congress in New York’s 10th District. She discusses Title 9, woke fragility, getting canceled by other Democrats, trans narratives pushed on teenagers, TERF Island, illiberalism on the Left, pronouns, Truscum fallacies, TERFs, men in women’s sports, TERFing, language, TERF, guns, TERFs, abortion, TERF, COVID, TERFs, and all things TERFy. Did we mention she’s a TERF? Nina almost regrets moving away from NYC’s West Village 10 years ago. Maron may be a little ahead of her time, but might (hopefully?) signal political changes to come.Maud Maron for Congress: https://maudmaron.com/Maud Maron on Twitter: https://twitter.com/MaudMaronEpisode 66: Truscum Talk with Evie: https://www.heterodorx.com/podcast/episode-66-truscum-talk-with-evie/--- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/heterodorx/support Get full access to Heterodorx Podcast at heterodorx.substack.com/subscribe

An Education on Education with Dr. Lyell Asher
First, please listen to Dr. Lyell Asher's video, Why Colleges Are Becoming Cults. Then come back to hear more about the low quality of ed schools, the supply of racism not meeting demand, how supporting free speech is an “employment killer", cowardly Boards of Directors, tenure, race as a distraction from class, administrative bloat, and grade inflation. Plus, Nina reveals her plans to kill trans people by inviting them on long bike rides when they’re out of shape, and Corinna wishes there were more Marxists.Why Colleges Are Becoming Cults [Full Series] | Dr. Lyell Asher https://youtu.be/0hybqg81n-MB******t Jobs by David Graeber https://www.rentabasicauniversal.es/wp-content/uploads/2018/09/B******t-Jobs_-A-Theory-David-Graeber.pdfWoke, Inc. https://www.vivekramaswamy.com/wokeincRob Henderson - Luxury Beliefs https://nypost.com/2019/08/17/luxury-beliefs-are-the-latest-status-symbol-for-rich-americans/Nina’s Open Letter to the U of I https://blog.ninapaley.com/2019/02/28/open-letter-to-the-university-of-illinois/FIRE: https://www.thefire.org/Gibson’s Bakery v.

Truscum Talk with Evie
Evie, a pseudonymous transsexual, claims True Transsexuality is a physiological condition akin to intersex, arguing childhood medical transition is a corrective for “prenatal hormone exposure, abnormal androgen receptors and physiological brain differences”. The Dorx may not agree, but have a productive and interesting conversation as Evie refreshingly backs up arguments with evidence (of varying validity) instead trying to weasel out with postmodern doublespeak. There should be more conversations like this.Trans surgeon Marci Bowers on early transitioners’ anorgasmia: https://twitter.com/DonovanCleckley/status/1521625518394773505--- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/heterodorx/support Get full access to Heterodorx Podcast at heterodorx.substack.com/subscribe

Gods, GITs, and Religion with Colette Colfer
Colette Colfer, lecturer in Religious Studies at SETU, discusses some religious aspects of Gender Identity Theory (GIT), including faith in the unprovable; hierarchical community; holy days, festivals, and symbols; heresy and blasphemy; and a a way to be born again. But there are also differences, notably the absence of God. Nina attempts to explain this with a theory of “distributed God”, while Corinna describes gender apostasy. Are we getting less religious? What is the difference between a religion and a cult? What is Reality? Hear answers, and more questions, in Colfer's delightful Irish accent (and the Dorx's unexceptional American ones).

Cathy Brennan Doesn’t Care What You Think
But if you care what she thinks, listen to this lesbian, radical feminist, lawyer, and Fake Goth hold forth about Tumblr, putting gender identity above sex in the law, the distraction of public bathroom policies, Republican lesbians, “queer” as a reclaimed slur, the civil rights of trans people, why “ROGD moms are bad moms”, and how gender criticals are stupid, boring, annoying, too reactive, care too much about identities, and should shut the f**k up.

Ask an Endocrinologist! with Dr. William Malone
Why do people without gonads (or their function) need hormone replacement? How exactly do hormones affect bone health? Should clinicians who prescribe puberty blockers have more than 3 hours of training? How did historical eunuchs get by without hormone replacement? Are gonads the human body’s only source of sex steroids? How does a detransitioner or disenchanted transsexual find a decent endocrinologist? Does Nina have superior tendon insertion points? Was Corinna’s first endocrinologist inappropriately handsy? Dr. Will Malone, MD, generously and meticulously answers these questions and more on this much-anticipated episode!Will Malone MD on Twitter: https://twitter.com/will_maloneSociety for Evidence-Based Gender Medicine: https://www.segm.org/ReThink Identity Medicine Ethics: https://rethinkime.org/--- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/heterodorx/support Get full access to Heterodorx Podcast at heterodorx.substack.com/subscribe

Gender, Government, and Law with Candice Jackson
Candice Jackson is an exceedingly smart, clear-thinking, plain-speaking, right-of-center lawyer who knows what sex is. From the Trump administration to the Women’s Liberation Front, she says gender ideology has broken through traditional left-right silos like nothing else. We discuss postmodernism in politics, religion (genderism) coinciding with plague (COVID), ideological purity, Democrats, Republicans, and how women in prison are affected when governments conflate sex and gender. Lively and information-packed, this conversation will make you want to make something great again, be it America or Anarchism.Links:WoLF: https://www.womensliberationfront.org/womens-prisonsWomen’s Declaration International: https://www.womensdeclaration.com/en/Twitter: https://twitter.com/CEJacksonLaw--- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/heterodorx/support Get full access to Heterodorx Podcast at heterodorx.substack.com/subscribe

Practical Politics with Natasha Chart
America suffers a paucity of effective women’s rights organizations. Personality conflicts, administrative scandals, and cancel culture can drive women away - only to find no alternatives. Asserting competition as the best way to dodge corruption, Natasha Chart proposes a solution: many more nonprofits, created by many more women. But first, she describes her journey from Jehova’s Witness to radical leftist to "normie"; her work on the ground in Washington DC; activists’ mutually exclusive dietary restrictions; "cowardice at the top"; and her love affair with the democratic process and representative government. Let a million (or at least a few dozen) feminist orgs bloom!Links:Natasha Chart’s web site: https://natashachart.com/Practical Politics for Bold Women: https://chartconsulting.samcart.com/products/practical-politics-for-bold-womenIRS web site: https://www.irs.gov/charities-and-nonprofits--- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/heterodorx/support Get full access to Heterodorx Podcast at heterodorx.substack.com/subscribe
