Who is Zohran Mamdani and What is a Resse?

Dana dedicates the whole show to the flip-flopping ban on publicly prescribed puberty blockers and hormones for children experiencing gender dysphoria. The ban was announced to everyone's shock in late January of this year by Queensland Health Director-General Dr David Rosengren, ruled unlawful by the Supreme Court of Queensland, and then almost immediately reinstated by Minister for Health Tim Nicholls, what the heck!? Listen to Dana pick her way through this one as best she can.
