Description
Hidden deep in online forums, a growing subculture thrives on anger, isolation, and blame: incels, or “involuntary celibates.” Incels see themselves as rejected by women and overshadowed by so-called “Chads”—the confident, attractive men they believe they can never be. Their frustration often mutates into open hostility, harassment, and, in the most extreme cases, acts of violence.
Incels takes listeners inside this unsettling world—not to sensationalize it, but to understand it. Through expert analysis, first-hand accounts, and the voices of former incels, we break down how these communities operate, why they’re growing, and the psychological traps that keep men locked in cycles of resentment. With chilling stories and deep insight, Incels reveals the human cost of a culture built on hate—and the path forward for those ready to leave it behind.

Half of the episodes are ads and the other half is just a long list of excuses for the violence of the incel community. You can't STILL be blaming feminists & women, as if incels don't have their own brains and free will to educate themselves. There are no role models for men? That's why they are misogynists, racist, etc etc etc? That's the saddest excuse I've heard! Feminism HAS provided role models and laid down the exact steps for them to deal with their anger and violence! Highly misguided!
