Full Episode
What the hell is up, y'all? It is Kareem Rahma back with another episode of Subway Takes the Damn podcast. Today I'm joined by Abdullah Saeed, writer and creator of the new show of Deli Boys, now streaming on Hulu. Abdullah came on the show a couple of weeks ago and brought a very intellectually stimulating hot take to the platform.
One that is very popular, which is that men are by far the more emotional and hysterical gender. So what's your take?
Men are by far the more emotional and hysterical gender. 100% agree.
100% agree, yeah.
No, men are always enraged. Yeah, I think everyone experiences emotions and the emotional triggers, but men manage their emotions much more poorly. You know, and I think that historically people would say like, oh, women are more emotional because they're expressing their emotions and crying or whatever, right? But they're getting past it. They're processing it in a healthy way. We do not do that.
No, no, we don't. We punch walls, punch doors, punch each other. Yeah, when we're sad or angry and we're like, ah! As a man, what is the worst emotion that you feel?
Sadness because it's really hard to actually, like, feel it without just getting angry, you know, and being like, oh, like, I'm stupid for being sad. You know what I mean? And then, like, you know, it's stuff that men have essentially set up society. That's a big bad thing. That's a big bad thing because look at where we're at today, right? We're not in a good place.
And I think it's mostly because a lot of men with power are driven by their anger.
It's OK. It's going to turn around, right? Or do we have to get off? Oh, sorry, ladies. OK. I'm so sorry. Thank you.
