In this 70th edition of WLRN's monthly podcast, you will first hear Jenna DiQuarto's greeting before hearing Jennifer Bilek's monthly gender industry report in which she calls on us to take a more offensive stance in the fight against gender ideology.

Next, Emiliann Lorenzen delivers WLRN's world news segment before she plays a clip from her interview with Ava Park, founder of the Museum of Woman and the Goddess Temple of Orange County. This interview clip follows the song 'To Be Free' by Emilianna Torrini.

Stay tuned 'til the very end for Thistle's take on the fairytale-like bicycle journeys she took over a period of three years in her young life back in the early 2000s and learn about the new fairy tales emerging in her City of Madison and what you can do to dispel the sexist connotations of the wicked witch figure in our collective mythology and to embrace the heroine's journey in women's mobile bike villages exploring the distant and magical land of Michigan.

We hope to see you in the Mad City April 22 - 24 to take back the Town Square for open and free public discussion of gender ideology and the misogyny fueling it.

Then, this Summer, get ready to join the Dragyn Ride, a mobile women's village traveling by bicycle 142 miles over five days from Big Mouth Girl on the Land near Hart, Michigan, to the Michigan Framily Reunion near Wayland, Michigan.
