Where feminism meets fringe. Host Cristen Conger dissects the myths, messes, and media shaping modern womanhood—and un-womanhood. From bisexual imposter syndrome to tall girl therapy, gun culture to birth control backlash, she mentions it all—backed by deep research, sharp interviews, and just enough unseriousness to demystify the uncanny valley of 21st-century patriarchy without doomspiraling. Gender. Power. Culture. Context. Unladylike.

🎲 Baldur’s Gate 3 Fancast – Part 1 🎭
Welcome back to Gaming the System, the podcast where three intersectional feminists take a deep dive into the world of gaming! In this special Baldur’s Gate 3 fancast series, Matt, Alex, and Jem are joined by returning guest Fin, a certified BG3 superfan (with 693 hours logged, an Astarion tattoo, and a hand-stitched Astarion blanket—yes, really).
Together, we’re fan-casting our dream actors for the game’s iconic characters, sharing unhinged devotion, surprising insights, and plenty of feminist critique along the way.
🏆 Episode Highlights
🎮 Hour Count Confessions: Turns out we’re all way too deep into this game. But Fin’s 693 hours? Legendary.
🐻 Bear Mode Romance? We talk Halsin, the druid daddy of dreams (or nightmares, depending on your choices). Did everyone go full bear? Maybe. Maybe not.
🧙♂️ Gale, the Divisive King: Love him or loathe him, we break down the wizard with the tragic backstory. Also, why do two of us think he’s basically Doctor Who?
🖤 Shadowheart’s True Age: Is she 40? Does she act like it? Do half-elves even age? The existential crisis begins.
🎭 Casting Chaos: Henry Cavill as Halsin? Aubrey Plaza as Shadowheart? Richard Armitage as “handsome but brooding” Gale? This is peak fandom debate.
🔥 Stay tuned for Part 2, where we fan-cast more BG3 legends and debate the best (and worst) romances in the game!
