Listeners of Prose and Bros, this week we rise against the biggest threat to both women and men of this world. That's right, we're taking down "The Pastryarchy." Duclaw's sweet treat brew divides our hosts as the Bros discuss why Root Beer Floats are either disgusting or amazing, since this version of the Pastryarchy is taking on a decidedly uniquely American form. Paired with this brew we're discussing a classic poem in "A Woman's Labour," by Mary Collier. One of the first poetic oppositions to mansplaining, this poem rolls of the tongue and lifts our rebellious spirits. So join us as we rise up to fight the power, and as always, enjoy!
Cheers!
