I know Ben from Bluesky, he’s lovely. The few of us non-crazies there (usually identifiable by the Jesse Singal follower tag) have to stick together!

I think you’re the only non crazy on Bluesky.

Katie in the US how are trans demands re sports, women’s spaces and children to be checked if not by pulling funding and threatening licensing. I see is as a push back against a war on women and children.

As far as I can tell the Democratic Party is still all in on all these issues

Post the recording! Some of us have jobs! Not that I won't listen to BARPOD at work, but I had a meeting!

Ben, you've been pretty fair in your reporting and it does bother me when my side (pro-trans) takes cheap shots at you and your work.

Any thoughts on a recent Fox News poll that showed voters favor Democrats on transgender issues over Republicans by 22 points? Have we hit peak anti-trans? Any hope for moderation or should we still be expecting Republicans, and their allies, to continue pursuing policies antagonistic to both trans youth and adults?

Looking forward to the chat!
