Welcome to another episode of Sidelined Sanity with me, Michelle Tofoya. Big Change is coming in a matter of days. We hope you'll stick around and subscribe and you'll be part of that change. Someone who's trying to be a part of change is a woman named Mary Harrington. She's from the UK. She's got a book out called feminism against progress. She is fascinating.

She is smart.

She calls herself a nerd.

I call her incredibly well-spoken and well, and very, very thoughtful.

Well, she tweeted out something about gender reassignment surgery.

And that tweet got her canceled from a book launch party, her own book,

at a venue in New York City. She's going to tell us that story and how she stood up to it.

Because guess what? She's still coming to New York City and she's still having a book launch in spite of people trying to cancel her over a tweet.

If I seem a little ticked off, it's because I'm, yeah, I'm sick of people trying to cancel people over tweets.

But I am heartened by the conversation you're about to hear between me and Mary Harrington.

For nearly three decades, she's reported the action from the sidelines.

She started very young.

She's covered the NBA, NFL, Olympics, and the college football and basketball national championships.

And now, during these insane times in our world,

Michelle Tofoya thinks we need a serious dose of sanity.

This is sideline sanity with your host,

one of the sanest people on planet Earth.

Michelle Tofoya.

Thank you. sanest people on planet earth. Michelle Tafoya. Mary Harrington's welcome.

I'm so glad to have you.

And you are just so interesting in so many ways.

But one of the things I admire about people is when they refuse to be canceled.
