All righty, welcome listeners to episode 114 of No Your Enemy. I'm Matt Sitman, your podcast, co-hosts, and I'm here as always with my great friend Sam Adler Bell. Hey, Sam. Hi, Matt. Happy belated birthday, by the way. Thank you. You're entering your Jesus year, right? What's your Jesus year? 33. Oh, my God. I'm 35. Okay, cut this, Jesse. No, the important thing about this year is that I can run for

president. You know, Sam, the day of your birthday, I woke up with a strange sense of relief

that knot in the pit of my stomach untightened some. And now I know why. I realized patriots could be in

control, you know? Well, we're here to introduce a very interesting episode about a topic

that no one on the internet has any thoughts about. Bros. Men, podcasts, hanging out with the

Bros. Podcasting, so on and so forth. We had a perfect guess for it. We had Andrew Morant's friend of the show,

New Yorker staff writer, who had just written a piece in The New Yorker about the idea of

2024 being the podcast election. Who's the left's Joe Rogan? Yeah, yeah. And, you know,

I think we really got to the bottom of it. Matt's the left's Joe Roken. No, but this was a very good conversation with Andrew and a couple of listeners had asked if we had any thoughts as podcasters about this culture of Manosphere podcasts that Trump went on during the campaign. And you get to hear all of our thoughts about this matter in this episode.

Yes. You know, we haven't done kind of media criticism for a while. This is something definitely, definitely out there.

And Andrew was the perfect guest to have on. We mostly draw from Andrew's great New Yorker essay titled Battle for the Brows.

The essay is great, and I really enjoyed the conversation.

Me too. Well, shall we get to some housekeeping items? Yeah. As always, we're grateful to our

partners at Descent. They sponsor the podcast and one thing they do for us is if you subscribe to

fun. Yeah, we do it all here. Media criticism, film criticism. Every so often the history of the

American right. Yes. As always, we want to thank our intrepid producer, Jesse Brennan, and Will Epstein, who does the music for the podcast. I did want to say one thing that Jesse asked me to disclaim here at the beginning, which is that there are several clips from bro podcasts and Twitch streams that are included here for the listeners who don't already listen to many media products from the Manosphere.

But Jesse said that he had to fight every instinct in his body not to edit them to make them sound good
