Richie & John | Tuesday Newsday | August 6, 2024

Join Richie Roy and John McMullen in their latest episode of Richie & John as they unpack the surge of enthusiasm for Kamala Harris's presidential campaign. The hosts delve into significant stories impacting the LGBTQ+ community, debunking false claims about Algerian female boxer Imane Khelif being transgender and defeating Italy’s Angela Carini, nonsense propagated by dingy Colorado Congresswoman and transphobe Lauren Boebert. They explore Massachusetts’ progressive parentage laws favoring same-gender couples and dissect a failed Congressional bill that sought to limit youth access to mental health information, a maneuver by the religious right. Celebrate with them as Leah Shipps, a progressive parent wins a write-in campaign to block anti-LGBTQ+ measures in a Maine school district, and enjoy a heartwarming story of two Supermarket Sweep – TV shoppers Tim Leach and Mark Dammann – revealing they were more than “business partners” when they appeared on the show. Tune in for a blend of serious discussion, insightful commentary, and a touch of humor from one of your favorite podcast platforms and the Mutual Broadcasting System.
