Pat opens the show this week by talking about the Rally Against Project 2025 event happening across the state of Michigan on Saturday, July 27th. It's put-together by our good, progressive fans from Distill Social! 

Pat also talks about President Joe Biden's decision to step aside, and pass the torch to Vice President Kamala Harris in the Presidential election. Pat notes how he correctly predicted a new candidate would inject a jolt of enthusiasm and hope into the Democratic Party base. Then, Pat reviews the extreme MAGA record of Michigan Republican State Rep. Matt Maddock.

41:36-48:15: Last Call: Michigan Is a Pro-LGBTQ+ State

In this week's "Last Call," Pat highlights a new study declaring Michigan a friendly state for the LGBTQ+ community, and that's due in a huge part to the many pro-LGBTQ+ policies that Michigan Democrats have passed in the last two years.
