from The Focus Group · host Bleav + The Focus Group

The famous Judy Garland song from “Meet Me in St. Louis,” “The Trolley Song,” has found new life 80 years later as an unlikely PRIDE anthem. But first, Tractor Supply Co. bowed to pressure from the right and will stop all diversity, equity, and inclusion efforts, (DEI), saying they “disappointed their consumers and have taken feedback to heart.” Corporate America continues to go back into the closet and it is their own doing for not hiring experts in the LGBTQ+ space to craft programs and messaging. Finally, a Tennessee bakery sends care packages to people having gender affirming surgery.Apple Podcasts: apple.co/1WwDBrCSpotify: spoti.fi/2pC19B1iHeart Radio: bit.ly/4aza5LWTunein: bit.ly/1SE3NMbYouTube Music: bit.ly/43T8Y81Pandora: 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.
