  • Week In Review: Democrats Gun Control Push & The DeSantis Rebuttal; Rays' Pride Night Objections & Taylor Lorenz Journalism Malpractice; San Francisco Recall & John Deere To Mexico
    The honorary co-host Ryan from Between the Liars joins the main host to discuss a wild week of current events, starting with the Democrats pushing for gun control amidst the recent mass killings in Uvalde and Buffalo. What is hidden in the bill and is it a distraction from the bigger problems that is leading to these mass killings? However, Florida Governor Rob DeSantis has taken a different approach, as he vetoed a budget to give the Tampa Bay Rays a new practice facility due to their stance on gun control--is it justified? The stories from Tampa don't stop there, as five Rays players decided to opt-out of wearing the rainbow patch symbolizing the LGBTQ community on "Pride Night." The backlash from the media gets hostile, as the focus transitions over to the Washington Post, with Taylor Lorenz-- is there a better way to hold our media accountable for journalism malpractice? The topic of accountability remains a point of focus, as an elected official in San Francisco gets recalled. Lastly, what led to John Deere moving their manufacturing over to Mexico? Is it selling out the American working-class or is it just business?

    Your one and only host goes over current events after an action-packed week, starting with a softball- what social stigmas still exist with smoking marijuana and is it acceptable for parents to do so? Then we heat things up by traveling to Washington D.C for Biden's war on fossil fuel, as his administration cancels Alaska's oil and gas lease sale. Will this exacerbate the problems at the fuel pump? And just how out of touch is congress after they tried to pass a $40 billion dollar package for Ukraine and codify Roe.

  • Hot Seat: Abortion & Men

    The general sentiment with the pro-choice side tends to be men don't have a say on the manner because they don't have to carry the pregnancy. This comes as the result of what's transpired with the presumption Roe will be overturned. But today I get personal and share some content that may be uncomfortable to hear, however this is my story why abortion is more than a women's issue. Abortion always involves a man, it's just a matter of how they are involved.
