Jonny continues to to cover events for SIU's LGBTQ+ History Month, including a focus on Sonalee Rashatwar's contributions. Our Flipboard site is full of articles and podcasts if you would like to know more about Rashatwar's important work! Building on her work, Jonny offers a caution to queer advocates and progressives who use the term "woke" as a pejorative or derisively. He then discusses the premier episode of the second season of Jon Stewart's "The Problem With" that focuses on gender affirming healthcare for trans youth. He covers a district court judge's decision in Texas pushing back against Biden Administration policy protecting LGBTQ people from work place discrimination. In the back third of the show, he highlights examples of conservative hypocrisy, highlighting GA Senate candidate Herschel Walker's abortion scandal and Awake Illinois's legal actions against their critics. He closes the show with an opportunity to receive free tickets to "Mort," a locally made horror short film premiering at The Liberty Theatre in Murphysboro on October 28th.
