Last night, Matt McGorry, a previous OITNB star who is known for being incredibly proactive towards equal rights for women and people of color, exposed the truth of an unbelievable talk show in Los Angeles to his 450,000 Twitter followers.
Matt starts off his drag-of-the-century by tweeting about what he heard in his LA cab ride.
It's called "The Woody Show," something most of us have never heard of, and probably for the best. It's repulsive.
Apparently, the show has a segment that involves interviewing anonymous females, and based on how those females answer questions, the show's hosts are left to guess whether the woman in question is skinny or fat. Did I mention one of those questions included their particular like or dislike for anal sex? Can it get any worse? Yes. Yes it can.
Whoever runs "The Woody Show's" Twitter page must have felt panicked enough to immediately act defensively after being called out by the greatest male feminist icon of our time. It seems they couldn't think of a great enough argument in time before Matt's fan army attacked.
The talk show employees demanded proof of the TV star's experience. Pics or it didn't happen.
Matt responds quickly, "Around 10:30 PM in L.A." "The Woody Show" jumps to defend themselves.
In other words, "we only air at 6 a.m. You couldn't have heard that at 10:30 p.m." They continue to ask Matt for proof, which was undeniably, a mistake. Keep in mind, Matt's followers are watching this unfold. The talk show social media goers attempt to shut down the argument quickly, continuing to ignore the content of their "Fat Chick Vs. Skinny Chick" segment and fight about the time of day instead.
His argument is locked and loaded with a video of the show playing during his cab ride for proof, which you can see below. In under two minutes, you can hear the disgusting questions these "professionals" call fun and games. Listen closely for when they ask questions like, "What kind of alcohol do you like to drink when you go out? How drunk do you have to be to be DTF? How do you feel about back door sex? Do you like diet soda or regular soda?"
Watch the video here.
Within minutes of Matt tweeting his video, "The Woody Show" deletes all of their responses used to defend themselves. Every. Single. One. You couldn't find them within 30 seconds of that video being posted. So now they just want to act like it never happened.
"The Woody Show" then responds to Matt with two weak screenshots of a few of their Instagram posts -- one of the show raising money for charity and another post of an LGBT ribbon showing support for the Orlando victims. Wow. Gold star for you, ALT 98.7.
Thank you, Matt, for constantly being the voice we need. Thank you for, once again, speaking up on an issue that needs to be spoken about. Thank you for exposing a "talk show" that we don't ever need or want to hear, never mind allowing our children and young women to hear it. The last thing we need is more sexism and women objectification.
Not only are "The Woody Show's" actions disgusting, unjustified, and incredibly sexist, their terrible grammar seems to match up to their equally poor excuse for a radio show. Being called out and exposed not only embarrassed the people who run this radio station, but hopefully now that someone has brought attention to their lack of morals, Los Angeles listeners will choose to turn to a different radio station tomorrow morning.
