Summary
Welcome back to the Ann & Phelim Scoop! In today’s episode, Ann McElhenney takes charge and explains why the Pro-Life Movement is losing ballot initiative after ballot initiative and what we can do about it. The pro-abortion people know that telling stories and producing entertainment that tells a pro-abortion story is very effective, and that's why they spend so much money on it. This is exactly why we need to support sharing the pro-life message in any medium we can, whether it be the arts or the sciences.
Then just last week, the UK's National Health Service, the NHS, decided to block puberty blockers for children. Joining us for this discussion is Baroness Fox of Buckley, Claire Fox. She is a member of the House of Lords and the director of the Academy of Ideas, which she established to promote the shocking concept that a public space where ideas can be contested without constraint is a good idea. She explains why and how the world has been captured by this trans-madness. Lastly, we share our latest book recommendation! This is an episode you won’t want to miss.

| 0:00.0 | These things are so awful and the debate has opened up in the UK in such a way that even NHS England has at least tentatively said that puberty blockers should no longer be given to teenagers by routine only in very acceptable circumstances of but this is a big step forward. |
| 0:21.4 | It's not the end of the story. |
| 0:23.2 | No. |
| 0:23.6 | It's the start of the end, maybe perhaps, in terms of medicalization of these. |
| 0:32.7 | Hello, I'm Anne McElhenney and welcome to the Anne and Phelham Scoop with Anne McElhenny on her own flying solo today. |
| 0:54.6 | Phelham is off with what I had last week so he has a terrible cough and it's terrible because yesterday we're taping on a Monday and yesterday was Simpatrick's Day and we were meant to have people over for Sim Patrick's Day, Shindig. we had to spend the whole morning telling people don't come, don't come, fail him with so unwell |
| 0:56.5 | and he's not great today either, so I'm all a people over for Sim Patrick's Day, Shindig. We had to spend the whole morning telling people, |
| 0:54.7 | don't come, don't come, Phelan was so unwell. And he's not great today either. So I'm all on my lonesome, but I'm going to do my best. Here's the photograph of us, by the way, celebrating St. Patrick's Day when we were happy and healthy. There you go. There's a little photograph of us. But in this |
| 1:08.8 | week's show, I was in Missouri last week |
| 1:11.0 | speaking to |
| 1:13.0 | Missouri right to life and little photograph of us. But in this week's show, I was in Missouri last week, speaking to Missouri |
| 1:13.5 | right to life and they're going to probably have a ballot initiative in November. Why are the |
| 1:19.9 | pro-life side losing? And what can we do? I'm going to talk a little bit about that in a moment. |
| 1:24.4 | And there are some signs of sanity happening across the Atlantic. |

| 1:52.0 | And I have a book recommendation that I'll talk about at the very end of the show. |
| 1:55.2 | But first, I was in Missouri and the pro-abortion people are looking for 170,000 signatures to get a ballot measure onto the ballot for November. |
| 2:07.9 | They need to get them by May the 5th and I speak into people down there. |
| 2:12.0 | It looks very likely that the pro-abortion people will succeed in getting this onto the ballot. |
