0:00.0 | Hey, Thank you so much for tuning in and if it's your first time here, hey, my name is Lauren and we have a ton to talk about as usual. |
0:17.3 | So let's just jump right into it. We're going to be starting the show off with a discussion of the death penalty, |
0:21.8 | something that I don't think we've really talked |
0:24.7 | about before on this show. Then YouTube is cranking up the censorship as I warned you all would |
0:30.3 | absolutely happen. Plus Tulli Gabbard has introduced a bill that she |
0:34.2 | claims will protect biological women in sports but which critics say is |
0:38.8 | actually transphobic because hey what is it nowadays and then finally we'll be finishing off with the |

1:41.0 | very critical of the government, very pro-individual freedom. |
1:44.9 | And so for me, looking at the government, the criminal justice system, that I have so many criticisms |
1:50.9 | of and then saying, yes, I think you should have the power to put someone to death. It just doesn't really sit right with me. I guess my my kind of stance on this would be that I support it in some circumstances for very serious crimes if it is just beyond |
2:07.0 | question that the person in question absolutely 100% is guilty because it's really the thought of someone being put to death wrongfully. |
