Mr. Pick Me & The Manhater

Latest Episodes:

Tomorrowland Today, Disney Jail Tomorrow May 22, 2026

Show notes

Regan and Chesko discuss a viral video of a woman recounting her husband's Disney World meltdown after their stroller went missing. We dig into the red flags, the privilege baked into acting that way without consequences, and the unexpected turn the conversation takes when the poster responds to commenters telling her to leave...revealing the early, fragile stages of recognizing you're in a bad situation. Plus a broader talk about rage-bait, internet pile-ons, and the responsibility creators and commenters share to leave space for the women who actually need to be heard.

Is This The Most Sexist Article Ever Written? May 11, 2026

Show notes

Regan and Chesko break down what might be the most sexist article ever written, a New York Post hit piece on Greta Thunberg with a misleading headline implying she’s caught up in a Freedom Flotilla sex scandal she has nothing to do with. The article mocks her “short stint” in Israeli prison after being kidnapped, calls her the “Swedish queen of sanctimony,” fixates on her “angry” face, and reduces her entire career to one “how dare you” moment. From there, the conversation widens into the Monica Lewinsky playbook of sacrificing women to protect powerful men, misogyny on the left, and the constant pressure to soften accountability for the sake of coalition-building.

Six Foot, Six Figures, Six Excuses May 04, 2026

Show notes

This week, Regan and Chesko tackle the strange male phenomenon of refusing feedback in the bedroom (and what speech and debate national champions can teach us about taking the note). Then a beach interview goes absurdly wrong when a woman dares to mention she likes scrawny guys, prompting the interviewer to launch into a monologue about his net worth, his anatomy, his late wife, and his daughter, all in roughly twelve seconds. Along the way, they cover the mythical "6-6-6," the impossibility of accidental cheating, and why men with zero female friends keep mistaking rejection for personal tragedy.

Are You Worth A Coffee Date? Apr 20, 2026

Show notes

Chesko and Regan dive into the great "coffee date debate" after a viral clip from the Girls Gotta Eat podcast sparked conversation online. They break down their own opinions as to what it really means when a guy asks you out for coffee, push back on the transactional framing of dating ("are you worth the spend?"), and explore how manosphere-adjacent advice is quietly reshaping modern dating culture. In short, two long-term partnered people confidently discussing modern dating that they have never personally experienced (You're welcome).

The Bro Cruise (Sort Of) Apr 14, 2026

Show notes

Chesko attempts to speed-run the viral "Bro Cruise" saga from Threads (a bachelor trip so chaotic it became internet legend) but naturally, he and Regan end up deep in tangents about holiday magic, parenting, privilege, and egg-laying Easter bunnies. Somehow it all makes sense...hopefully.

The Metrosexual Panic of 2004 Apr 06, 2026

Show notes

This week, Chesko and Regan dive into a fascinating question posed by author Jason Pargin. "Why do women seem to do far fewer double-takes at attractive men in public than men do at women?" The conversations opens up into a discussion about grooming standards, the social pressure on women to maintain their appearance at all times, the "metrosexual" panic of the 2000s, and how safety concerns shape the way women move through public spaces. Along the way, they also discuss pain stims, smutty book clubs, the dad bod double standard, and (inevitably) men's hygiene habits in ways that cannot be unheard.

I Dress You Because I Love You Mar 23, 2026

Show notes

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.

Nice In Private, Insufferable In Public Mar 18, 2026

Show notes

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.

U-S-A...MISO-GY-NY!!! Mar 02, 2026

Show notes

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.

Men Aren’t The Villains...We Are Feb 26, 2026

Show notes

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.
