Lets dive deep into one of the most alarming and controversial topics facing the LGBTQ+ community right now — the Supreme Court’s consideration of cases that could allow conversion therapy for LGBTQ youth in certain states.

We’ll break down what’s happening, what this means for LGBTQ rights and protections, and how these potential rulings could impact queer youth, families, and mental health providers across the country. Joshua also shares quotes from both sides of the debate — from lawmakers and organizations defending “parental rights” to advocates fighting to protect LGBTQ youth from harmful, discredited practices.

This is more than politics — it’s about lives, safety, and the right to be yourself.

This country is off the rails ain't it? Joshua Robert dives into three explosive stories making waves across the country. First, the shocking new details in the Trey Reed case, where a second autopsy—funded by Colin Kaepernick’s organization—contradicts official reports and reignites the fight for racial justice and transparency. Then, we unpack Liberty Counsel’s decades-long crusade to overturn marriage equality, tracing how this extremist group has been quietly building the groundwork to dismantle LGBTQ+ rights in America. Finally, we confront the disturbing truth behind Donald Trump’s spiritual advisor, Pastor Robert Morris, who pled guilty to sexually abusing a child—raising serious questions about power, religion, and accountability.

These stories expose the systems that protect power and punish vulnerability, from courtrooms to churches. It’s raw, it’s real, and it’s the kind of news conversation the mainstream avoids.

Listen now to stay informed, enraged, and ready to act.
