I'm Ashley C. Ford, and I host Into the Mix, a Ben & Jerry's podcast about joy and justice produced with Vox Creative.

For the past few years, I've seen a lot of hand-wringing about Governor Ron DeSantis' agenda to end what he calls woke indoctrination.

But we wanted to know, what does that mean?

And how does this agenda actually affect the people living and working there?

Especially those who have benefited from the diversity, equity, and inclusion programs

that DeSantis' policies would uproot.

I am your host, Brad

Roland. It is Tuesday, August 1st, and I'm joined as often by Scott Coleman. Scott,

the deadline is over and the Braves made some moves, but they did not trade for anyone famous.

Are you distraught? I am not distraught. I was really genuinely curious to see how today was going to go. At this point, I think Alex

Synthopoulos and the front office deserve every benefit of the doubt with their decisions.

I really wasn't sure. I thought there was a world where they would be creative and make a couple

of bigger moves. And then I also thought there

was a real chance that they evaluated this roster and said, there's no real weakness here and

went with the horses they have and added a couple of pieces over the last week. So always a fun time,

not a ton of movement either across the league, which we should probably talk about.

But nonetheless, always a fun day and always a pleasure to do one of these with you in the late evening on Tuesday night.

Yeah, so number one, if you have missed anything on the brave side of things on this podcast feed i encourage you to listen to it we

purposely because i had some travel i had of course covid last week you listened to the podcast
