Dom Giordano, WPHT host and former teacher, has dedicated much of his daily show toward parents who are taking it into their own hands to push back against school boards that have a negative impact on their children. This has culminated in a weekly podcast on education, Readin', Writin', and Reason, which has allowed wonderful relationships to develop between Giordano, educators, and parents throughout the country who are speaking out against overbearing school boards.
First, Dom welcomes Emily Greene, Deputy State Director of Americans for Prosperity Pennsylvania, to hear about an infringement of the First Amendment by her alma mater, the University of Pittsburgh, who sought to cancel an event held by women's rights activist Riley Gaines, who leans conservative. Recently, AFP and the Lincoln Institute revealed that lawmakers have sought to cancel events from speakers that don't agree with the liberal mentality of Universities, allowing officials to silence ideology as they please. Emily Greene explains what AFP hopes to do to push back against the push here, directing listeners to KeystonePlaybook.com for more information.
Then, Dom brings in former University of Kentucky swimmer Riley Gaines, now working with the Independent Women's Forum, to hear about her time spent this week at the University of Pittsburgh, where she was met with protests and violence for speaking on campus. Riley has been in the news a lot recently, speaking out heavily against UPenn swimmer Lia Thomas, a transgendered individual, pointing out the unfairness of allowing biological males to compete against females. Gaines first reflects on her speaking engagement, telling that a heckler called her a 'pervert' for looking at Lia's genitalia, pointing out the idiotic nature in thinking that would be perverse, even if untrue, while thinking it's okay for women to be forced to see a biological male's genitalia. Then, Dom and Gaines delve into her background, with the swimmer telling, in depth, her training background and the dedication it takes to be a female athlete, only to have chances of success ripped away by unfair advantages in allowing trans individuals in women's sports. Also, Riley offers her thoughts on the horrific school shooting involving a transgendered individual in a Nashville school, and tells where listeners can find more of her work as she continues her push back against this radical ideology.
