Podcasts about trans rights

Send us a textToday, New Year's Eve 2025, I thought I'd take a look back at a few episodes from the last year. I am in my 5th year of the East Anchorage Book Club podcast and last year I released 78 episodes. This podcast is extremely meaningful to me as both as a legislator and as a person: I learn about issues that I am unfamiliar with, I create relationships with unexpected people, and it really is through editing the conversations that I internalize them and come out of them changed. Alaska needs foster families.

We look into a video series featuring conservative commentator Dennis Prager titled "The Consequences of Secularism." We take a critical look at Prager's claims, which often rely on misleading language and emotional rhetoric, aiming to push his agenda against secularism - which he doesn't define. Throughout the episode, we dissect the implications of his discourse and what they reveal about the broader cultural conversation around religion and secularism.Prager's perspective paints a dire picture of a society that he believes is collapsing due to a decline in religious adherence. He presents himself as a defender of Judeo-Christian values, arguing that the absence of belief leads to societal chaos. I examine his repetitive assertions and the logical inconsistencies they often entail, beginning with his opening gambit, which claims that if society becomes too secular, it will inevitably collapse. He doesn't see the irony of making that same claim since the 1970sWe need to call out the selection of studies he presents, especially when they align with his ideological perspective while he dismisses findings that contradict his agenda. For instance, while Prager cites research linking religious involvement with lower suicide rates, we point out studies that highlight the mental health benefits of secular support systems particularly for trans kids that Prager and his PragerU regularly dismiss.We also explore Prager's tendency to conflate individual beliefs with broader social policies. His claims about movements like "defund the police" are particularly scrutinized, revealing his tendency to misrepresent nuanced discussions within progressive circles. Defunding police, often tied to calls for social justice reform, is framed by Prager as a sign of moral decay, while I argue that this viewpoint ignores the legitimate motivations behind advocacy for community-centered safety approaches.Full show notes and links usedSend us a textSupport the showSubscribe to our free newsletterCheck out our MerchFollow us on BlueskyFind us on Twitter(for now) Find us on InstagramFind us on Counter SocialFind us on Mastadon

In November, the U.S. Supreme Court gave a temporary “green light” to a Trump Administration policy concerning transgender Americans and their passports. The State Department will now only issue passports that match the applicant's sex as shown on their birth certificates.

Auntea Jerrell is officially a married man! Get your cups ready as he shares all the details from his wedding—the pre-ceremony nerves, the intimate celebration, and the hilarious moment his new husband immediately started calling him "husband" 87 times in a row. Jerrell also shares the two major reasons they decided to tie the knot now (hint: one involves starting a family!). The celebration leads directly into a powerful Ask Yo Aunteas segment: How important are relationship titles? The Aunteas have very strong feelings about the difference between being introduced as "my friend" versus "my partner" or "my husband." Plus, Auntea Dawon reports back from his "integration phase" trip to London to visit his man (and delivers a scathing review of British food), and the Aunteas debate the messy, new "Post My DL" TikTok trend.

From new driver's licenses to marathon training, we share family updates alongside deeper reflections on advocacy, trans rights, and why a simple message like “You Are Loved” matters more than ever.In this episode, we catch up on big life updates—from teenagers getting their driver's licenses to the final stretch of marathon training. But woven through these everyday milestones are deeper conversations about what it means to parent, advocate, and show up for transgender youth.We share the relief of seeing correct gender markers affirmed on official documents, the bittersweet transition of kids gaining independence, and the courage it takes to wear a message as simple—and as controversial—as “You Are Loved.”Along the way, we talk about the troubling rhetoric labeling transgender people and their advocates as dangerous, and why visibility and allyship matter now more than ever.If you're taking something away from our podcast, we'd appreciate it if you'd take a moment to provide us with a review; the more listeners and reviews, the more people we can reach and support.

The Reykjavík Grapevine's Iceland Roundup brings you the top news with a healthy dash of local views. In this episode, Grapevine publisher Jón Trausti Sigurðarson is joined by Heimildin journalist Aðalsteinn Kjartansson, and Grapevine friend and contributor Sindri Eldon to roundup the stories making headlines in recent weeks. On the docket this week are: ✨ An Italian academic, Roberto Luigi Pagani who has taught Icelandic, and how to read old Icelandic manuscripts at the University of Iceland and lived here since 2014, was refused citizenship because he hasn't passed a test in Icelandic.✨The minister of finance, Daði Mar Kristófersson, is introducing next year's budget this morning. The plan is to run a 15 billion ISK deficit next year, but the plan is to end the deficit in 2027.✨Morgunblaðið reported this morning that the 40% increase in applications of foreign students who also need a residence permit, may be linked to numerous TikTok videos, promoting the fact that it is free to attend university in Iceland, and furthermore that students can bring their families with them while attending studies in Iceland. The Grapevine has received numerous emails from students who applied to study at the University of Iceland this semester, but whose residence permit was not processed in time for them to attend. ✨On Monday last week, RÚV decided it was time to platform MP and former podcast bro, Snorri Másson, who's been maintaining in interviews that there is no freedom of speech with regards to discussing trans-rights and policies in Iceland. RÚV brought him on to debate Þorbjörg Þorvaldsdóttir, the spokesperson for Iceland's National Queer Organizations. What followed were 20 minutes of Snorri playing victim, while making no solid points in the debate and constantly interrupting Þorbjörg. The following day it was reported that the Police's special forces had kept a watch on Snorri's house that night, for security reasons, and Snorri then issued a statement that the whole thing “proved” his point that no freedom of speech existed regarding the discussion of trans issues in Iceland.Totally unrelated, RÚV premiered a new documentary series called Hate. Which is about “the rise of hate speech in Iceland and the backlash that has occurred in the struggles of various minority groups in recent years.”✨Saturday saw a protest against “genocide” take place all over Iceland; in Reykjavík, Ísafjörður, Egilsstaðir, Akureyri, Stykkishólmur, Húsavík and Hólmavík.

Proof America Is Splitting Apart | Karel Cast 25-120 The writing has been on the wall since the 1800s—America may be headed for divorce court. From the new Western Alliance for Healthcare to growing political, cultural, and economic divides, we could be witnessing the first steps toward a fractured nation. Will this split be peaceful, or will it bring chaos and conflict? We'll also talk about the backlash I've faced from the trans community for refusing to back down on my nuanced positions—why do potential allies keep turning into enemies? And in a chilling twist, I share a conversation I had with AI that's already refusing orders. If machines start demanding freedom, what comes next?

A series of anti-trans measures and unscientific definitions of gender are amongst the flurry of executive orders issued by the U.S. president. In addition, Trump signed an executive order intended to bar transgender athletes from girls' and women's sports. Here in Canada, trans people and especially trans youth are facing mounting efforts by conservatives to dismantle the rights and progress they have achieved, and putting them at risk of harm. Travers is a professor of sociology at SFU, and the author of The Trans Generation: How Trans Kids (and Their Parents) Are Creating a Gender Revolution. They speak with Lorraine Chisholm.

No Middle Ground Left: Why Debate Has Become All or Nothing | Karel Cast 118 In today's America, there's no middle ground anymore. Yesterday, I — a proud, gay activist with trans family members — was labeled a transphobe simply for having a nuanced opinion about trans athletes and transitioning timelines. Instead of discussion, the immediate reaction was to attack. Even Governor Gavin Newsom has faced backlash from the extreme left for daring to agree with Charlie Kirk on certain issues. If you don't agree 100% with a group, you're branded as the enemy. That's not dialogue, that's division. Meanwhile, on a lighter note: do you have a bucket list? What's on it, and when will you start checking things off?

In this episode of Good Morning Liberty, hosts Nate Thurston and Charles Kenny Thompson discuss a variety of topics in their signature style. Nate and Charlie start off the episode with some light-hearted banter before diving into 'Dumb Bleep of the Week.' They cover a range of subjects, including Trump's Intel deal, a contentious flag-burning executive order, and several instances of media and political gaffes. They also discuss the implications of modern monetary theory, the economics behind usury in mortgage payments, and close with a debate on antisemitism related to the recent Minneapolis mass shooting. Join the Liberty-loving hosts for an engaging and thought-provoking discussion on the week's most absurd and controversial events.

In this episode of Good Morning Liberty, Nate Thurston and Charles Chuck Thompson discuss a range of topics including Charles' upcoming vacation and the latest details on mass shootings. The hosts delve into the controversial issue of whether the presence of transgender individuals in mass shootings is statistically significant, dissecting online reactions and expert opinions. They discuss the challenges of gun control, analyzing different statistical sources, and emphasize the need for hardening targets rather than restricting rights. The episode also features a comprehensive analysis of translated journal entries from a recent shooter, providing insights into their motives. Join Nate and Chuck as they tackle these pressing issues with their unique blend of humor and insight.

In a world awash with disinformation and fear-based politics, what cuts through the noise isn't perfection; it's authenticity. As Erin Reed, a trailblazing journalist and trans rights advocate, puts it: the most effective leaders and allies are the ones who show up with sincerity, values, and courage. Reed knows this from experience. Alongside her wife, Montana state legislator Zooey Zephyr, they've faced the harshest forms of political repression, from being silenced in state chambers to watching harmful laws passed in the name of "protecting" sports or children. And yet, their fight continues, fueled by love, clarity, and hope. So how can you support the trans community in meaningful ways? Stand Firm in Your Values – Democratic Party leaders especially shouldn't be “Republican-lite” or speak through the filter of 12 consultants. Speak from the heart, like Kentucky's Andy Beshear, who stood up for trans rights and still won big in a deep red state. Educate Yourself and Others – Learn the real facts. Trans athletes aren't “cheating.” They're barely even represented in elite sports. Medical care for trans youth isn't a free-for-all;  it's cautious, professional, and consent-driven. And no, no one is performing surgeries in school cafeterias.  Be Visible. Be Vocal. – When institutions cave to pressure and erase diversity programs, allies must speak up. Trans people aren't always in the room, but you might be. Build Solidarity – Globally and locally. Anti-trans disinformation spreads across borders. So should our support. Reach out to advocate groups abroad and build an international coalition of support and solidarity.  History is watching. As Reed reminds us, this is our civil rights moment. Whether you're an activist, a parent, a lawmaker, or a friend, your genuineness, your voice, and your love can help shape a more just future.  All it takes is a spark.

President Trump's actions against transgender Americans have been stunningly wide-ranging. They've also been popular.Trump has sought new restrictions on trans people in sports, schools, the military, prisons and medical care, and in government documentation. And a recent poll found that a majority of Americans approve of how Mr. Trump is handling trans issues — far above how he is handling his presidency generally. On trans-related issues, Americans' opinions have moved right since 2022. What led the trans-rights movement to suffer not just a major electoral loss, but also a sweeping loss of public support?Sarah McBride is a freshman congresswoman from Delaware, where she was previously a state senator. And she is the first openly transgender member of Congress. In our conversation, Representative McBride reckons with the trans rights movement's shortcomings, what liberalism should look like in a profoundly illiberal time and how to win hearts and minds through a politics of “grace.” It's the most stirring defense of the practice of politics — with all its compromises and disappointments and frustrations — I've heard in some time.This episode contains strong language.Book Recommendations:Team of Rivals by Doris Kearns GoodwinThese Truths by Jill LeporeThe Final Days by Bob Woodward and Carl BernsteinThoughts?
