4: The horrible case of the Incel Martyr, Elliot Rodger
Cheryl Hole and Nikki Druce are travelling to the ‘manosphere’ to learn all about the secret world of Incels and their gross revered martyr, Elliot Rodger. It’s a warm Saturday evening in the college town of Isla Vista in Santa Barbara, California. Students all over town are getting ready for house parties at some of the biggest sorority and fraternity parties of the UCSB. But by nightfall, an angsty incel had wreaked havoc on the town, injuring 14 people, and taking 6 innocent lives. Who was Elliot Rodger, and why had his inability to get a girlfriend provoked him to do such damage? Nikki and Cheryl are going to find out. Expect misogyny galore, the cringiest autobiography of all time, and an insight into how obsessed incels are with their chins… This episode contains graphic details of violence, including mentions of suicide, and is not intended for all audiences.
