This a bit of a bonus episode for the week!

If you listened to the last episode, you know that I went to an LGBTQ event in Provo, Utah put on by the Raynbow Collective. The event featured a "Family Friendly Drag show" and there had been protest organized by a group. I went as an observer and spoke with a few of the attendees as well as a handful of the protesters.

Tommy reached out to me and said that he'd be willing to be on the podcast. This episode features Tommy and Luke of the BYU Conservatives instagram group. We discuss the purpose of the protest and some of the concerns a handful of the protesters had. Fair warning to those who listen: we talk briefly about suicide as well as transgenderism. Tommy and Luke do list some statistics, however they don't cite any sources (to be fair, I had not ask them to cite sources, but certainly should have). 

If you're curious about a lot of the data that they do mention, you can find a lot of it in Abigail Shrier's book "Irreversible Damage" and the sources she cites in her work.
