It was the slap heard around the world, quite literally. At the Oscar Ceremonies 2022, actor Will Smith slapped comedian Chris Rock after he made a joke about Smith’s wife, Jada Pinkett Smith, starring in a movie called “G.I. Jane II,” a reference to Pinkett’s baldness.

The showbiz shenanigans of this matter have been well covered in traditional and social media. What we wanted to do with this episode is delve a bit into the wide reaction to this event and examine some of the societal norms that have affected public opinion.

Our guest cohost is Rashmi Mistry, who is the author of the book, “Confident Resilient Fearless: A Guide to Revival from Within.” Rashmi talks about the impact of gender norms and the importance of having these conversations at schools. Together, we have an objective conversation about toxic masculinity and what expectations society has about different gender roles.
