THE RESPONDENT is A MULTIMEDIA CHILD ADVOCACY SERIES aiming to inspire family champions.

Greg Ellis set out on a journey to explore the condition of the male experience via a new video and podcast series, The Respondent - a multimedia conversation on positive masculinity; a whodunnit, in which Greg—as both lead detective and key perpetrator—works to track down the co-conspirators of men’s demise and the secrets to their reclamation. It’s also an exploration of how becoming a modern man today demands we reimagine masculinity, rethink fatherhood and revitalize our image of family.

Season one guests include experts, educators, and celebrity Respondents discussing agitating topics including family, philosophy, fatherhood, psychology, politics, family law, pop culture, entertainment, and much more...

    Laurence Fox is an actor, musician, and political commentator. He co-founded and is the leader of The Reclaim Party and The Bad Law Project.


    In this episode, we chat about Laurence’s experience with the family court system, the current battle he is in for custody of his sons, being guilty until proven more guilty, the devaluation of fatherhood in our current culture, and much more.

    “Tomorrow we have to just pray that  the judge returns the kids to the situation they've lived in for six and a half years, and I need to get their mom and me, so I'm not saying that I'm better and she's worse. I'm just saying you need to get me, her, and our kids around a table so that we can talk about each other's problems and we can find a way through, in a way which is not impeccably hostile.” - Laurence Fox

    Listeners can find Winston on Twitter: https://twitter.com/MrWinMarshall 

    Winston’s podcast Marshall Matters: https://www.spectator.co.uk/podcasts/marshall-matters 

    Winston Marshall is a musician and was one of the founding members of Mumford and Sons. In 2021, he departed from the band, amidst controversy, and wrote about his decision here: https://mrwinstonmarshall.medium.com/why-im-leaving-mumford-sons-e6e731bbc255 

    Winston is also the host of the new podcast "Marshall Matters", in partnership with Spectator Magazine, focusing on the state of the arts and creative industries. Guests will join Winston as they discuss the taboos and the obstacles of freedom of expression that artists meet today.


    In this episode, we chat about Winston’s decision to leave Mumford & Sons, cancel culture, standing up to the mob, music, the MeToo movement, and much more!

    “…particularly after I published the letter when I quit, I got thousands of messages. It's very moving when you get messages from people who say that they feel trapped or they feel that they can't say what they think or that if they say what they think they're going to lose their job or lose something from all walks of life. Now I can afford to quit, right? I've made money. I'll be alright but a lot of people can't afford to quit. If they lose their job, they can't pay rent or they can't pay their mortgage, they've got kids, there's so much that they're juggling… when you challenge some of these big ideas, you become a pariah, you become untouchable, you become a bad guy.”

She is a men's advocate and critic of feminism. She had a long-running YouTube series called The Fiamengo File that received a permanent ban from YouTube, and she has recently begun The Fiamengo File 2.0 about the history of feminism in order to demonstrate that feminism was never about equality. In this episode, we chat about the history of feminism, the differential treatment of men and women under the law, the Me Too movement, and much more!“All feminists say they're interested in is the social and political equality of men and women, but that isn't the case at all. When one looks at what feminists advocate equality doesn't seem to be a part of the issue at all. There are so many areas in our society where men are not doing well and we don't hear feminists speaking about those issues with concern and we don't see feminists advocating for those issues.” - Janice FiamengoTop Takeaways:Feminism was founded on principles that advocate for the moral inferiority of men, disparging men, and trying to remove them from all forms of power.Life throughout history was extremely difficult for both women and men, but the focus always seems to be on women.Men are imprisoned and punished much more harshly for the same crimes that women commit.Feminism seeks to undermine the family unit.Show Notes: [1:40] Greg welcomes guest Janice Fiamengo.[1:50] Why did Janice get involved in men’s advocacy?[6:00] What is feminism?[9:50] Feminists reasons for why there are more men in prison.[13:00] History of feminism. [25:00] The misconception that in the past women were considered the “property” of men and the many responsibilities men have had throughout history.[28:10] Differential treatment under the law between men and women.[34:10] The complexity behind the issue of women’s right to vote. [36:10] Different types/brands of feminism and the label of being a “feminist”. [41:00] The Me Too movement.[44:40] The death of chivalry.[47:10] Men’s sense of attachment to women.[49:50] How feminism demeans and attacks the family unit and how it removes any agency or ownership of women’s circumstances.[54:00] Johnny Depp v. Amber Heard trial and the current culture of being “guilty until proven innocent”.[1:03:40] Where do you find meaning?  [1:04:40] What has been the most meaningful moment of your life?[1:06:50] Where do you go to find peace?[1:08:00] If you could write your own epitaph, what would you want it to say?[1:10:10] If you had one wish, what would it be?[1:11:00] Where you can find Janice.[1:15:00] Greg wraps up the show.Thanks for listening to another episode!
