In Episode No. 28 of Miss Understood, we analyze the latest feminist news to hit the scene. From Serena Williams retiring from tennis cause she has a uterus to actress and producer Mindy Kaling promoting single motherhood, it appears this movement doesn't really believe it when they say “women can have it all.”

Plus, did you know working from home more negatively impacts women than men? We certainly didn't (because it doesn't).

With the bungled response at the start of the COVID-19 pandemic, and given the Trudeau government treating it as incredibly severe, why is Chief Public Health Officer Theresa Tam getting a raise instead of a notice of termination?

Welcome to Rebel Roundup, ladies, and gentlemen — and the rest of you — in which we look back at some of the very best commentaries of the week by your favourite Rebels. I’m your host, David Menzies.

For those who embrace freedom, last Friday was a shocking day indeed. A 24-year-old hooligan attempted to murder author Salman Rushdie at a public event in New York. But why? Raheel Raza will try to make sense of it all.

And say hello to our newest Rebel News reporter. That would be Katie Daviscourt based in Seattle, Washington. And what a story she has to tell. You see, Katie first got involved in journalism when city council and the mainstream media in Seattle decided to completely ignore the violent antics of Antifa and Black Lives Matter as they laid siege to her city. Katie shall explain all.

And letters; we get your letters; we get your letters every minute of every day. And I’ll share some of your letters about my monologue last week regarding how the World Economic Forum wants us to give up our cars in the name of climate change… or something. Sorry Klaus Schwab. It just ain’t gonna happen. But hey, Mr. Schwab, nothing’s stopping you from giving up your chauffeur-driven limo or trading-in your filet mignon for a cricket sandwich… I think that’s called leading by example… which ain’t gonna happen either.

Those are your Rebels, now let’s round ‘em up…

GUEST HOST: David Menzies

My spouse said something the other day that struck me. She said that it seems that in our not-so-wonderous woke world of 2022, apartheid is making a comeback. Not in South Africa, mind you, where it was eradicated in the early ’90s. No, a form of apartheid-lite, if you will, is being embraced in so many western democracies due to political correctness and woke-ism and, yes, Marxism.

GUEST: Mark Meincke is a veteran and the host of the Trauma Recovery Podcast.

One of the most exciting guests to ever grace Andrew Says, former Bachelorette in Paradise star Leo Dottavio takes a break from stand-up comedy to join the show.

Dottavio, who is a staple on the Danny Mullen channel, also spent time as a Hollywood stunt man before his foray into the reality show world. As the lead in one of Universal Studio's most highly regarded attractions (Waterworld), the former Division 1 college athlete has transitioned smoothly into podcasting, comedy and the world of YouTube.

The California native joins Andrew Says to discuss all of his former careers, including being a 'controversial' reality show participants, a world where Dottavio says he truly didn't belong.

“I wouldn't call it fake...but there's definitely acting going on and they aren't telling people there is,” he explained.

The comedian described some of his most hilarious encounters, including at the infamous — and notoriously left-wing — Evergreen College as well as attending a WNBA game and trying to get a date with one of the players... during the game.

“A WNBA game is actually a great place to host a bachelor party, I invite everyone watching to have their bachelor party at a WNBA game and you won't be disappointed,” Dottavio told Andrew Chapados.

Exclusively on RebelNews+, Leo Dottavio gives his words on the political climate in the United States and explains why his channel was deleted from YouTube.
