This week, extreme boredom convinced to me re-watch my absolute favorite movie, but this time around, it was a lot sadder than I remembered. While Tony Montana was for all intents and purposes "The Man," by the end of the movie, his story was more tragic than it was honorable. In this episode, I'll give you the top 3 reasons Scarface beautifully illustrates that patriarchy doesn't work for anyone, not even men. Especially not men. Please note that I use a lot of raw and uncensored language in this episode so if you're sensitive to cursing, you may not want to listen. Also, if you have a fragile ego, some of what I have to say may be triggering but I promise you'll be better because of it. Either way, thank you for being here and for even considering supporting me.
