TFG Unbuttoned: China Un-Friends Friends

from The Focus Group · host Bleav + The Focus Group

In ten years the USA LGBTQ population has doubled according to a new Gallup/NBC Poll. 7.1 percent of the USA population now identifies as LGBTQ with Gen Z—those 18-25—having 21% of their cohort identifying as such. It really is about people being more comfortable in living their authentic selves. Then, the Chinese government has censored lesbian and other story lines deemed unfit for Chinese viewing. Many fans of the show in China are not happy and question why streaming services are even showing it if censors are going to be so heavy handed. Finally, a 3rd person has been cured of HIV. While the treatment is not ready for primetime, it is a step in the right direction to eradicate HIV AIDS.Apple Podcasts: apple.co/1WwDBrCSpotify: spoti.fi/2pC19B1iHeart Radio: bit.ly/2n0Z7H1Tunein: bit.ly/1SE3NMbStitcher: bit.ly/1N97ZquGoogle Podcasts: bit.ly/1pQTcVWPandora: pdora.co/2pEfctjYouTube: bit.ly/1spAF5aAlso follow Tim and John on:Facebook: www.facebook.com/focusgroupradioTwitter: www.twitter.com/focusgroupradioInstagram: www.instagram.com/focusgroupradio Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
