The podcast episodes cover various aspects of social status, including how it is gained, lost, and wielded by individuals and groups.

For example, the episode 'Why Must Widowhood Be So Difficult?' examines how widows historically lost social standing and legal rights upon the death of their husbands, particularly in patriarchal societies. This highlights the connection between social status, gender, and power dynamics.

Another episode, 'Bill Gates has a problem (E)', explores how the social status and perception of wealthy philanthropists can influence their charitable giving. The host suggests reframing philanthropy as a status game to drive positive cultural change.

The episodes also touch on other facets of social status, such as its role in workplace dynamics ('Dog Salon Divas with Hayes Brown'), the normalization of misandry ('The Bear vs. Man Meme is a Big Deal'), and its importance in the lives of middle school students ('Introducing Here Lies Me').
