With Louis C.K.'s latest Netflix special, Ridiculous (out June 30th), reigniting debates about accountability, consequences, and redemption, Courtney and Tess tackle one of the thorniest questions of the post-#MeToo era: What do we actually want from people who have committed sexual misconduct? Using Louis C.K.'s comeback as a case study, they explore what accountability should look like, whether people can truly change, what meaningful atonement looks like, how victims should be treated in the aftermath of harm, the role of power and complicity in enabling abuse, the issue of workplace safety, and whether we should separate the art from the artist. This episode is a nuanced, thought-provoking conversation about accountability, rehabilitation, and what justice might look like when there are no easy answers.
