How anti-Muslim reactionaries feign concern for women's rights abuses in Islamic countries and cultures in order to use these legitimate issues as tools to further oppressive policies and attitudes, making it more difficult for genuine activists to make their voices heard.

Are you sure you aren't getting different groups confused? Keep.in mind that not everyone who disagrees with the Islamic ideology is part of the alt-right. In fact, a lot of liberals disagree with it based on it's regressive tendencies, but that's away from the point.
-
Part of my point is precisely the fact that the anti-Muslim movement has made it increasingly difficult for rational critics of Islam to hold indispensable conversations. Many liberal ex-Muslims and Islam critics are wary of getting hijacked or used by ill-intentioned people.

An episode about how disability issues are largely ignored by most progressive movements (particularly in the wake of Time's Up). Also, how the many various slurs for disability/mental illness are still considered acceptable, even by people claiming to fight oppression.

Seconded.

The portrayals of poor people. Particularly the working class. I got enough of people assuming they are all lazy and/or criminals.

To expand though you can begin by talking about Times Up, but then speak to how people w/ disabilities are the most vulnerable to sexual assault, which can then open up the topic as a whole.

I’ve been reading a bit lately about the concept of “queering” media. I’d love to hear your take on it & whether or not you think it’s an effective critical tool

Maybe do some episodes about how the patriarchal gaming culture is bad for men as well. To shut up all those idiots, who think feminists are only concerned about women.

I'd love to see you cover toxic feminists and the double standards they use all the time to dismiss all possible responsibility and blame men 100% of the time. But I'm guessing you're going to ignore it like the plague.
