As Pride celebrations approach, Ash and Lindsey get into Ron DeSantis's run for president, Slovakia's bizarre new law about gender identity, and where they would want to move if things got worse.

Our hosts are sun-drunk on "hot Grimace summer" this week as Ash dusts off their tome of McDonald's lore and Lindsey  recounts the lovely time she had covering the opening of Utopia Washington's Mapu Maia clinic. An invitation to write open letters goes out to the candidates for Seattle City Council District 3, and pressing questions are pondered: What is the debt ceiling? What's the deal with Joe Biden and ice cream? And why do Seattleites complain about sunny weather?
