What Is Wrong With Modern Women? - Whitney Cummings - #720

**Chris Williamson** (0:00)
Hello, friends, welcome back to the show. My guest today is Whitney Cummings. She's a comedian, actress, writer and a podcaster. Women aren't having a great time at the moment. They're maybe just as lost as men. The only difference is they get a little bit more sympathy. So where did the trajectory of women go awry and how can they find a way to be happy again? Expect to learn the social psychology behind the rise of Taylor Swift, Whitney's thoughts on becoming a mother and the future of motherhood, whether women really can have it all, why more men are attracted to Whitney now that she's pregnant, what we can do about the future of sex robots and much more. I was so impressed by Whitney on this episode. I found her charming and vulnerable and open and insightful and just very, very smart. I was a fan of her before, but yeah, she, I'm fully on team Cummings after this. I really hope that you take even half as much away from this episode as I did because it's really great. And there are a lot of insights here that I think we all need to be reminded of a lot more frequently. This episode is brought to you by Element. Stop having coffee first thing in the morning. Your adenosine system that caffeine acts on isn't even active for the first 90 minutes of the day, but your adrenal system is and salt acts on your adrenal system. Element contains a science-backed electrolyte ratio of sodium, potassium and magnesium with no junk, no sugar, no coloring, artificial ingredients, gluten fillers or any other BS. It plays a critical role in reducing muscle cramps and fatigue whilst optimizing brain health, regulating appetite and curbing cravings. It's how I've started my morning every single day for over three years now and I absolutely love it. That orange flavor in a cold glass of water first thing in the morning is fantastic. It is the best way to start the day. Also, they have a no BS, no questions, ask refund policy. So if you do not like it for any reason, they will give you your money back and you don't even need to return the box. That's how confident they are that you love it. Head to drinklmnt.com/modernwisdom to get a free sample pack of all eight flavors with your first box. That's drinklmnt.com/modernwisdom.
Recently I went and got a gut microbiome analysis. And one of the products that they suggested I start using was a Colostrum product. The brand they recommended was Armra. So I actually decided to partner with them. I've started drinking it with a cold glass of water on a daily basis and it improves my gut health. That's really important for me. I'm kind of focusing on gut health at the moment. And Armra's Colostrum product is literally what my doctor suggested that I should get. Unlike most Colostrums, Armra leverages their proprietary process that guarantees the highest potency and bioavailability of any Colostrum available on the market. They've got thousands upon thousands of five star reviews, offer a 30 day return policy, and you can get 15% off your first order by going to tryarmra.com/modernwisdom and using the code Modern Wisdom at checkout. That's tryarmra.com/modernwisdom and Modern Wisdom at checkout. This episode is brought to you by Surfshark VPN.
