Who should earn more: a man or a woman? Answering questions from listeners in the podcast "Who Would Talk"

Polina, Rodion and Ira - about pets, the moral side of research and cool new tips.

This podcast contains a lively conversation about what is happening in the country and the world, discussion of Lifehacker's articles and phenomena of mass culture.

In a difficult period for everyone, we wanted to support you, our listeners, and be closer to you. Observing all the norms of self-isolation, of course. Therefore, this large issue consists exclusively of answers to the questions that you sent to our Telegram-bot @KtoGovorilBot. And if you haven't done so yet, but want to hear your question in our podcast, feel free to send a voice message to the bot. We will definitely answer in the next issue.

04:45 - what to do if you want to do everything at once, and will you succeed in this way? Polina believes that a variety of interests will always help to stay afloat, especially in times of crisis. And Rodion and Ira tell how they suffer from their need to try everything and everyone. If you have the same problem as our listener, read the article on how to organize your hobbies.

16:34 - is it worth combining study with work? Our young listener is interested in how a student can get money and whether it is possible to work at all before receiving a diploma. Spoiler alert: you can and should. Why could Polina sleep on any surface, how was Meladze's work influenced Ira, was it true that Rodion voiced the cat Matroskin and how is all this connected with earnings? We will tell you in this block.

28:26 - is it worth having pets? It is worth it if you follow certain rules. You can read about it in our article. The guys share personal stories. Rodion really wants a dog, Polina tells how she felt goodbye to her hamster, and Ira's story will shock all animal activists: her hamster flew! And not on their own.

39:38 - does income affect the relationship in a couple? Our regular listener asks if it is normal for a man to earn less than a woman. Does this not infringe on his rights? Doesn't hurt, says our alpha male Rodion. Polina drowns for equality in a couple and does not even see anything criminal in a man leaving on maternity leave. Ira tells why for a long time she believed that a woman should receive less.

53:46 - can moral norms be disregarded in research? A very difficult question, which the guys could not find an answer to. But we remembered the most terrible experiments in history.

62:16 - We will not leave you in quarantine without the heading "Soviets". Rodion reread the Harry Potter and the Methods of Rational Thinking fanfiction, and he warmly recommends it, as well as Leonid Agutin's home concert. Polina freaked out and watched a lot of films and advises all of them, write down: "Get the knives", three pictures with Jake Gyllenhaal (Lefty, Brothers, Source) and the very complex work of Yorgos Lanthimos The Lobster. Ira recommends watching the series "Why Women Kill", as well as listening to Alla Pugacheva's song "You know, it will still be" and believe in the best.
