Andrew Schulz's Flagrant with Akaash Singh
Andrew Schulz's Flagrant with Akaash Singh
"Y'all ever forced yourself to be open-minded and then when it backfired, you're like, 'Mother fucker, if I just trusted my goddamn prejudice, I could have handled this shit so much easier.'" — Shulti
"My initial feeling is this food ain't gay here, yeah? That's my initial feeling, but I go instead of canceling the order, like my loins are telling me to do, I go, 'You know what, let me just give her a fair shot,' right?" — Shulti
"I'll hold the lesbian up to any expectation. I'll hold a man up to. Because she can go that extra mile to prove herself." — Unnamed Speaker
The episode features a humorous anecdote from the host, Shulti, about a negative food delivery experience. He recounts ordering food via Postmates and expressing initial skepticism when the assigned delivery person, "El Vira," was described as a woman on a bike. Despite his internal doubts and a desire to cancel, Shulti decided to give the delivery person a chance. However, during torrential rain, the delivery person remained stationary under an overpass, leading to a significant delay and the eventual cancellation of the order. This experience prompted a discussion about whether perceived gender-based differences in resilience or willingness to endure hardship played a role in the situation.
The conversation then delves into broader societal observations about masculinity and suffering, contrasting it with perceived limitations in other groups. The speakers humorously speculate on how gender, and even sexual orientation, might influence performance or expectations in challenging tasks, using analogies and exaggerated scenarios. The discussion touches upon the idea that certain groups might be perceived as having a greater drive to prove themselves, citing a hypothetical scenario involving a lesbian delivery person.
The hosts conclude by playfully referencing a TV show that might be misunderstood due to the suggestive nature of its title, highlighting a misinterpretation of the show's name. The segment serves as an example of the exclusive content offered to Patreon subscribers.
