115. Pac-12 adds San Diego State, Boise State, Fresno State and Colorado State

Chris and Kaylia talk about the slow burn of progressive resistance that is finally starting to pick up steam, from Corey Booker's record-breaking Senate speech to an interview with Feleipe Sousa-Lazaballet from Florida's District 42, who is running to be the first Dreamer ever elected to the State House in that state. We also talk about some good news, the importance of protest, the inherent risks of free speech when you work for a corporation (or a university), and a few ways you can get involved in local LGBTQIA activism.

Friends Foes, and Finding a Voice in Florida

In this episode, Matt takes a field trip to California State University Fresno to talk about the spooky stories associated with the campus, including haunted music rehearsal spaces, a demon stalking the dormitories, and the spirit of a respected journalism professor. Along the way, he is nearly run down by scooters and encounters horses walking through campus. He also tries to persuade a ghost to open a door for him, which goes about as well as you would expect.
