The Sweet Tea Series

DEI is burning through our colleges - sometimes, literally. Today, Ariana chats with Kate Bierly, a college volleyball player and alumnus of the "wokest" university in America, about men in women's sports, diversity, equity, and inclusion programs and courses, the idea of "intersectionality," and more!

Is the Bible back in schools? To answer that question, Ari is joined by experienced Texas teacher, Courtney Bagley, to talk homecoming, Texas' new curriculum, and what "cultural context" means for Texas school kids. Hint--it means they'll be able to understand common sayings, phrases, and the American ideals. 

Aliyah Formont joins Ariana Guajardo to chat TikTok cruise drama and drop new information on Texas' emerging water crisis - things are about to get real dry, real quick if we don't act!

Join Ari as she chats with Sherry Sylvester, an award-winning journalist and political insider on all things Texas, as they break down women's voting trends in 2024, feminism and femininity in the modern world, and what the future looks like for women in politics. 

Tired of trying? Be brat. Join Ari and America to dissect "brat summer," whether it's healthy for our self-image, and what might be the antidote to the self-aggrandizing brat culture: homeschooling. America also talks about what it was like to be one of six homeschooled kids, classical education, and her mother's unconventionally strong example. 

The Ballerina Farm drama has the internet going CRAZY, and the olympics aren't any different. Ariana sits down with Grace and Ella Grace to spill the sweet tea and discuss what it all means - especially in light of Title IX reform.

Ariana Guajardo is joined by  Kristen Eichamer from the Problematic Women Podcast. They discuss discuss the threat to kids' online safety - especially in light of Kris Tyson's behavior. They also talk about how Americans can support their Olympic athletes without accepting the attack on Christianity.

This week, Taylor traveled to Washington, D.C. to sit down with Kelsey Good, Digital Director at The Strategy Group Company, and talk about life in our nation's capital, her experiences working on political campaigns, how politicians use social media and storytelling to engage with people, and how being a mom has impacted her view of politics.

Happy Mother's Day! Powerhouse Mom and TPPF's Next Generation Texas Campaign Director, Mandy Drogin, is back! She sat down with Ariana to share stories of moms in Texas who are fighting for school choice, the parenting challenges facing moms today, and how her mom has inspired her.

Calling all foreign policy girls: this one's for you! Taylor sat down with Alexandria Paolozzi, Director of Government Affairs for Christians United For Israel Action Fund, to discuss the current conflict in the Middle East, the rise of anti-Semitic protests around the world and on college campuses, the history behind the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, and the United States' relationship with Israel.
