Asuhhh dudes! April is finally here, and with it, everyone's favorite allies: Chad and Brad, who took over today’s episode for just a lil’ bit! As for the newest news, March is officially over, but marching is not! Because Pride across the country is putting the capital P in Protest this year. Less funding from big money, and more community out on the streets. And while we are talking protests – LGBTQ people (*Luh-Gi-Bi-Ti-Quas*) in Utah were waving a huge trans flag out at the capital. Why? Because Utah became the first State to ban LGBTQ+ pride flags in Government buildings, and it’s already costing them big time. Sundance Film Festival said (we) Gone Girl, to Utah, and it’s in part because of the ban. Governor Spencer Cox is pretending to be optimistic about it, but no worries Spenc, Vico and Nay have some really solid ideas for y’all! In Governors Nay doesn’t hate – J.B. Pritzker from Illinois gave a wonderful speech in support of trans kids in the country. Spoiler: Chad agrees with Governor Pritzker that it’s ok to “punch the bullies in the face.” We also get into Yellowjackets discourse, and himbos are involved!
