Episode 36: Being Taught Not to Feel

Welcome to HEART REACTS, an advice podcast for all of us trying to remain emotionally functional through the collapse of late capitalism.

We're back! And we have thoughts on masculinity, heterosexuality, and capitalism. First about the Olympics, and the pleasures and misfires of watching sports through the lens of the nation, and then we answer a letter about being a "lonely male," and how to learn to be comfortable with feeling.

Stuff We Talk About:

Men's Freestyle Skiing Big Air Final (Highlights)

I, Tonya

Red Army

Miracle

Craig: No Crying Shame

A.S. Hamrah on Tech Won't Save Us

We are Craig Gent, a writer and researcher living in Leeds, and ⁠Sarah Jaffe⁠, a journalist and author based in London.
