Mr. Pick Me & The Manhater

Chesko and Regan kick off with some chaotic parent energy (haunted dolls, goblin accusations, and the recycling bin of shame) before diving into a viral video of a husband handing his wife a shirt to cover herself up. They break down why "he dresses you because he loves you" is a gateway to control, how tradwife influencers sell a lifestyle they don't actually live, and why women thriving after barriers are removed is apparently a crisis. From the manosphere as radicalization pipeline to DEI, legacy admits, and benevolent sexism, it's an episode full of pattern recognition and ranting.

After some fun cold-open chaos to the show (as per usual) Chesko and Regan dove into the main topic: Timothy Chalamet's repeated, dismissive comments about ballet and opera. They unpacked how his remarks aren't just a bad take in isolation, but fit a broader pattern of men seeking masculine credibility by devaluing feminized art forms. The conversation expanded into how Chalamet's whole rebrand feels like a failed attempt to be a hustle-culture alpha while still claiming the identity of a serious artist and drew comparisons to similar falls from grace by Chris Pratt, Zachary Levi, Hugh Jackman, and others. The episode wrapped with some lighter tangents about winking, grumpy resting faces, and anticipation for Michael B. Jordan's performance in Sinners.Support us on Patreon (and hear bonus content!):https://www.patreon.com/mrpickmeandthemanhaterMerch Store:https://www.bonfire.com/store/mr-pick-me--the-manhater/Follow Us on Social Media:https://www.youtube.com/@mrpickmeandthemanhaterhttps://www.instagram.com/mrpickmeandthemanhaterFollow The Manhater: Regan (F the Nice Guy) -TikTok: http://www.tiktok.com/@ftheniceguyInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/buckle.up.babesPodcast: https://ftheniceguypodcast.podbean.com/Follow Mr. Pick Me: Chesko (The Speech Prof) -Substack: http://www.thespeechprof.comTikTok: http://www.TikTok.com/@speechprofInstagram: https://www.Instagram.com/thespeechprofFacebook: https://www.Facebook.com/thespeechprofYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@TheRealSpeechProfTheme song by Sara Spicer - https://www.Instagram.com/saraspicermusicand Tera Lynne Fister - https://www.Instagram.com/iamfister

This episode of Mr. Pick Me and the Man Hater kicks off with Chesko and Regan in a pre-show debate about whether Chesko's appeal is purely personality-based, before diving into their main topic: the US men's Olympic hockey team's gold medal win being overshadowed by misogynistic locker room behavior, Kash Patel's questionable presence in the celebration, and a Trump phone call that treated the equally-successful women's team as an afterthought. They also touch on other Olympics moments including Alyssa Liu's empowering conditions for returning to figure skating, Eileen Gu's brilliant handling of a dismissive reporter, and a Norwegian athlete's baffling post-medal public confession about cheating on his girlfriend...all framed through Chesko and Regan's mix of utter chaos, personal reflection, and laughs.Support us on Patreon (and hear bonus content!):https://www.patreon.com/mrpickmeandthemanhaterMerch Store:https://www.bonfire.com/store/mr-pick-me--the-manhater/Follow Us on Social Media:https://www.youtube.com/@mrpickmeandthemanhaterhttps://www.instagram.com/mrpickmeandthemanhaterFollow The Manhater: Regan (F the Nice Guy) -TikTok: http://www.tiktok.com/@ftheniceguyInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/buckle.up.babesPodcast: https://ftheniceguypodcast.podbean.com/Follow Mr. Pick Me: Chesko (The Speech Prof) -Substack: http://www.thespeechprof.comTikTok: http://www.TikTok.com/@speechprofInstagram: https://www.Instagram.com/thespeechprofFacebook: https://www.Facebook.com/thespeechprofYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@TheRealSpeechProfTheme song by Sara Spicer - https://www.Instagram.com/saraspicermusicand Tera Lynne Fister - https://www.Instagram.com/iamfister

In this week's lighter episode, Chesko and Regan take a break from the serious stuff and dive into a fun (and surprisingly self-reflective) conversation about what men find "attractive" in women's hobbies. Along the way, they sidetracked on everything from ghosts and psychics, to the joys and anxieties of gym culture, to their mutual struggle with personal style and ultimately concluding that this week's villains were none other than themselves.Support us on Patreon (and hear bonus content!):https://www.patreon.com/mrpickmeandthemanhaterMerch Store:https://www.bonfire.com/store/mr-pick-me--the-manhater/Follow Us on Social Media:https://www.youtube.com/@mrpickmeandthemanhaterhttps://www.instagram.com/mrpickmeandthemanhaterFollow The Manhater: Regan (F the Nice Guy) -TikTok: http://www.tiktok.com/@ftheniceguyInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/buckle.up.babesPodcast: https://ftheniceguypodcast.podbean.com/Follow Mr. Pick Me: Chesko (The Speech Prof) -Substack: http://www.thespeechprof.comTikTok: http://www.TikTok.com/@speechprofInstagram: https://www.Instagram.com/thespeechprofFacebook: https://www.Facebook.com/thespeechprofYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@TheRealSpeechProfTheme song by Sara Spicer - https://www.Instagram.com/saraspicermusicand Tera Lynne Fister - https://www.Instagram.com/iamfister

Chesko and Reagan tackle the bizarre world of "loyalty tests" where dating coaches advise men to catfish their own girlfriends to test fidelity. They dissect why this advice is not just insecure but fundamentally manipulative, explore how influencers profit from terrible relationship guidance, and discuss the broader culture of confident ignorance plaguing social media. The conversation spirals through anti-vax parallels, accountability vs. "cancel culture," and why being called out for bad behavior doesn't make you the victim. Plus: the new theme song reveal, thoughts on forgiveness and political cults, and why "I'm not a bad person" is often the worst defense.Support us on Patreon (and hear bonus content!):https://www.patreon.com/mrpickmeandthemanhaterMerch Store:https://www.bonfire.com/store/mr-pick-me--the-manhater/Follow Us on Social Media:https://www.youtube.com/@mrpickmeandthemanhaterhttps://www.instagram.com/mrpickmeandthemanhaterFollow The Manhater: Regan (F the Nice Guy) -TikTok: http://www.tiktok.com/@ftheniceguyInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/buckle.up.babesPodcast: https://ftheniceguypodcast.podbean.com/Follow Mr. Pick Me: Chesko (The Speech Prof) -Substack: http://www.thespeechprof.comTikTok: http://www.TikTok.com/@speechprofInstagram: https://www.Instagram.com/thespeechprofFacebook: https://www.Facebook.com/thespeechprofYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@TheRealSpeechProfTheme song by Sara Spicer - https://www.Instagram.com/saraspicermusicand Tera Lynne Fister - https://www.Instagram.com/iamfister

Chesko and Regan react to a viral video claiming women are partly to blame for men being toxic because they "reward" bad behavior by sleeping with toxic exes while making "nice guys" wait. They discuss how these men knowingly weaponize manipulation as "dating advice," how the so-called niceness is just a strategy that gets dropped when it doesn't produce results, and how the manosphere profits from telling men it's never their fault.

They discuss recent ICE actions, the arrests of journalists Don Lemon and Georgia Fort, the killings of Alex Preti and Renee Goode, and the shocking hypocrisy around First and Second Amendment rhetoric.

In today's episode, Chesko and Reagan eventually get to the main segment that tackles a viral thread asking: "What do men think is attractive but actually gives women the ick?" From "I'm not political" Tinder profiles to unsolicited hunting trophy photos, loud car exhausts, and bragging about fighting prowess, they dissect why these masculine displays consistently miss the mark. Along the way, they share personal stories about family dynamics, childhood rebellion, and why saying "you're not like other girls" is actually a massive red flag.Support us on Patreon (and hear bonus content!):https://www.patreon.com/mrpickmeandthemanhaterMerch Store:https://www.bonfire.com/store/mr-pick-me--the-manhater/Follow Us on Social Media:https://www.youtube.com/@mrpickmeandthemanhaterhttps://www.instagram.com/mrpickmeandthemanhaterFollow The Manhater: Regan (F the Nice Guy) -TikTok: http://www.tiktok.com/@ftheniceguyPodcast: https://ftheniceguypodcast.podbean.com/Follow Mr. Pick Me: Chesko (The Speech Prof) -Substack: http://www.thespeechprof.comTikTok: http://www.TikTok.com/@speechprofInstagram: https://www.Instagram.com/thespeechprofFacebook: https://www.Facebook.com/thespeechprofYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@TheRealSpeechProfTheme song by Odanis the Rapper - https://www.instagram.com/odanistherapper

Regan and Chesko tackle the frustrating trend of men who weaponize incompetence in their relationships, and worse, convince their partners to find it endearing. They break down a viral podcast clip where men suggest moms "secretly hope" the house falls apart when they leave, exposing how this narrative justifies incompetent parenting while shifting focus from men's failures to women's reactions. They discuss real examples of fathers who can't handle basic childcare for a few days, the manipulative patterns that make women defend objectively bad behavior, and why being appreciated shouldn't require watching everything fall apart.

Regan and Chesko dive into the disturbing world of men's private group chats after young Republicans' racist messages leaked online. They discuss why so many guys are suddenly admitting their own group chats would look "pretty bad" if exposed, and what that reveals about toxic masculinity in isolated spaces. The hosts break down a cringe-worthy clip from the Whatever podcast where a guest confidently shares his sexist and racist views about female pilots and mechanics, sparking a larger conversation about microaggressions, performative allyship, and the obsession with being seen as "good" rather than actually doing good.

They debate whether the "surprise" cruise was actually planned in advance, discuss the logistics of last-minute cruise bookings, and explore broader relationship red flags including lying, manipulation, and the importance of communication in partnerships.

Chesko and Regan unpack a comment from a guy who swore off buying flowers for women after one bad experience, exploring why some men treat rejection as proof that "all women are evil." They discuss toxic dating advice, the pressure to perform rather than connect authentically, collective illusions about dating, and why vulnerability is essential for real relationships.
