Episode 7: Gay Panic Defense, Sportsball, and The Power of Our Words

Meet Paris-based journalist Leah Gillis and New Jersey legal eagle Elura Nanos, college friends who talk current events and life girlfriend-style. Join them to hang, learn, and catch up on their lives an ocean apart. On Instagram: @aleahthing @elurananos @youguysthepodcast (All times are estimates) :30 - We’re going to start you out with a Terrible News Update from journalists in Zimbabwe to federal judges in New Jersey, there’s a lot of awful in the news this week. Plus, John Lewis died. Ugh. ‪3:30 John Lewis and Elijah Cummings: two civil rights icons, two Black men, lots of white people showing they don’t know any better.‬ ‪5:00 We talk Trader Joes, how we need to stop exoticising non-European cultures in daily life, blind spots in the grocery store, and companies that bring their A game for damage control. And one that didn’t with Leah. ‬ ‪22:00 Sportsball: The Washington Redskins, Elura’s lack of sports knowledge, and an important ignored truth about the SuperBowl and domestic violence.‬ 25:00 Good Legislation Alert: The Gay Panic Defense has been outlawed in Colorado. This is an LGBTQ+ issue that’s not getting much coverage. We break it down and talk about why it’s such an important step in protecting the rainbow world and thus everyone. 40:00 L&E talk Cancel culture, political correctness, and the importance of paying attention to the power our words. 50:00 Time to check in on the rest of the world and COVID. Spoiler: there are more places than just America, and we should probably take a gander at what’s happening on the Nile River.
