Summary

Bethany Mandel, co-author of Stolen Youth: How Radicals Are Erasing Innocence and Destroying A Generation , sits down with Bridget for a frank conversation about motherhood, abortion, and why the gender identity debate always seems result in women paying a price. They discuss the odd disparity between the the idea that men will do anything - except lie about their gender - coming on the heels of the #metoo movement, how much of this is starting to get on the radar of the normies, how people are willing to risk the safety of other people’s children in order to not run afoul of their peers and risk being called a bigot, and the danger of girls being taught that even if they’re uncomfortable they have to stay quiet. They also cover the disdain for the average taxpayer, why most of the amazing feminist voices against the gender ideology are coming from the UK, how totalitarians try to capture a society by ideologically indoctrinating children, using the term "antisemitism" as a weapon, the staggering rates of illiteracy among children due to Covid, and why we need to radically reinvent the American classroom.

Bridget Phetasy admires grit and authenticity. On Walk-Ins Welcome, she talks about the beautiful failures and frightening successes of her own life and the lives of her guests. She doesn’t conduct interviews—she has conversations. Conversations with real people about the real struggle and will remind you that we can laugh in pain and cry in joy but there’s no greater mistake than hiding from it all. By embracing it all, and celebrating it with the stories she’ll bring listeners, she believes that our lowest moments can be the building blocks for our eventual fulfillment.
