Some of the lines during the sex ed convo are the funniest I've ever heard. I just laughed my ass off, you guys are the best.

As a woman, I see both his past actions and his current summation of those actions as very troubling. To some degree, "agreeing to disagree" seems like a very white, male privilege position as someone like Kilstein poses little danger to either podcast host but could damage the careers and lives and livelihoods of women in his professional and personal lives if he still views women as tools and not as people with views and needs equal to his own. Or to take this question to a broader perspective, how can you agree to disagree with people whose political choices directly affect your family's survival or the livelihood of loved ones? I understand the desire to connect to people different from yourself and to reach points of agreement, but it's a matter of life and death for some people, and when others can't or won't see that their positions cause you or loved ones harm, it makes "agree to disagree" an untenable position.
