We're a one 'ssue show today because we have to get to our Lady Attorneys! This week turns into a wellness podcast with us discussing the merits of supplements and a doctor who eats 9 cups of vegetables a day, plus how Bryan went to a brunch where "FUN" was the word of the day. This week Bryan covers the South Carolina Arts Commission defunding two of the only queer organizations, The Greenville Gay Mens' Chorus and The Proud Mary Theatre Company for not meeting their new "artistic merit" requirements.

Put a pillow and sick on it! This week is a reverse course from last week's appeal to white men over 60 as we try to confuse Gen Alpha with some potential new slang, plus we fawn over Nigella Lawson as she replaces Prue Leith on The Great British Bake-Off. Erin discusses University of Texas' provost office rejecting "DEI classes" for core requirements based on "student feedback", and the removing of majors involving urban unrest, gender and sexuality. Bryan examines how six major hospitals reached deals with the Trump administration and the DOJ to stop providing gender affirming care to people 19 and under to avoid lawsuits and releasing underage patient information to the government.

It's a balmy 80 degrees at the start of fall and we're wearing burnt orange repping our Texas roots (Hook 'em horns! UT is in the finals!), and somehow get into a deep dive on college football coach Major Applewhite and watch how the players rehearse for the big game. Bryan discusses Turkey increasing their attack on the LGBTQ+ commnity by ordering more activists to be held in pre-trial detention and the blocking of websites and social media accounts for journalists and human rights groups, plus how a study from Prevention Science is showing an increased use of vaping by the queer community as a result of bullying and rejection. Erin details how Texas is purposely delaying the release of the state's Health and Human Dervices maternal mortality report until after the midterms out of concern Republican candidates will receive backlash as a result of their reproductive health restrictions.

This week Erin's luggage (with her mic) still hasn't been returned to her, but she's sipping on eucalyptus and discussing her appearance on the Scriptnotes podcast! Bryan has symptoms of exhaustion but managed to get a $70 haircut and learned all about the Seventh Day Adventists. Erin is Paul Revere spreading the news from the recent ProPublica study from 2020-2025 showing ectopic pregnancy deaths nearly doubling since the overturning of Roe V. Wade Bryan spins his big gay globe to lead us through Turkey's recent raids on its LGBTQ+ citizens, Hungary making progressive changes, and how here in the U.S. Democrats are failing its trans citizens in this conservative culture war.

This week Erin is recovering from being stranded for hours at the Seattle airport surrounded by owl merchandise, Bryan is back in his Texas childhood bedroom cuddling his stuffed lamb ottoman, and Sally Kellerman's daughter's legal war in Scotland over her emotional support dog spawns a new tech idea for our show. Bryan discusses the new study ordered by the Department of Health & Human Services linking trans rights supporters to being more prone to political violence and how it could be used against left-leaning individuals in the future. Erin reports on celebrity hairstylist Frédéric Fekkai who is being sued in New York City under the Gender-Motivated Violence Act by Epstein victims who claim his salons were used in Epstein's sex trafficking ring.

We start this week by mourning the loss of our North Star - Dolly Parton, the one and only hero we'll never have again, followed by Erin reading a selection from a translated Nordic book about a haunted wax doll. Erin discusses the forgotten rete ovarii that was written off by the medical community as a vestigial clump of cells but was determined to actually assist the ovaries in 2025, which somehow leads into a discussion of the John Grisham novel turned movie Christmas with the Kranks. Did you know Gray's Anatomy is an actual medical book? #themoreyouknow

We're doin' it live with our Lady Attorneys on a late night recording after a full day of work on a Monday! Bryan is trying to figure out whether or not to buy a car, and our suggestions weren't helpful. Erin is back in a Canadian AirBNB with no front door, or hangers. Bryan discusses The Log Cabin Republicans continuing the conservative trend of cutting ties with the trans community and their new focus of protecting straight people. Erin tells us of a recent court victory with a federal judge in Idaho blocking a near-total abortion ban when a physician believes continuing the pregnancy poses serious risk to the patient.

If you are still needing some new content, Bryan sat down with the Brief Recess Podcast!

This week Erin's spilling the tea (from a paper cup) about the Baywatch reboot set drilling next door to her office, and Bryan's wrapping up his Off-Broadway run this weekend and is going to start putting his thoughts in a gratitude journal to remember the experience. Bryan discusses two former professional cisgender male basketball players publicly declaring they are "identifying as women" in order to declare for the women's league draft to exploit the vague language in the official WBNA policy. Erin details abuse of Flock Camera data by local police officers to stalk and harass women, and how the federal government can weaponize the information collected to target queer people moving to liberal cities and women crossing state lines to access reproductive healthcare.
