Jonny and Heather adapt to warming conditions and the failure of AC in their ecording studio, bringing an episode made in the virtual space of a Zoom meeting. They assess some particularly aggregious new assaults on trans rights, including the failure to honor the retirement benefits of Air Force members forced into early retirement for being trans. They also weigh in on Pete Buttigieg's mixed messages on trans support and the need for clearer, unambiguous support for trans rights in the resistance. In the back half of the show, they turn to the threats posed to other LGBTQ rights, including a full court press on overturning Marriage Equality and members of the administration's connections to platforms proud of their misogyny, transphobia, and homophobia. Unfortunately, the only real solace in all of this is the infighting and incompetence among the fascists and haters.
