Lady Gaga got this one Wrong-Wrong

Byl Holte (pronounced “Bill Holt”) is many things.  He is Black.  He is gay.  He is Patti LaBelle’s adopted son/nephew.  And he has a significant following on X.  But he has been largely isolated from his family and friends because of (wait for it)… politics. That hasn’t stopped him from expressing his opinions about feminism, Barack Obama, and Joe Biden’s America.  This is his first-ever on-camera interview.  Oh — and he was at the Capitol on January 6th.

A Gay Black Man who was Changed by the Brett Kavanaugh Hearings

Imagine having an extremely adverse reaction to the COVID-19 vaccine.  Should you just be brushed aside as an unfortunate side effect to a vax that was supposed to shield people from COVID?  Or should there be recourse for your injuries?  Craig Norkus is a cameraman for an NBC Station in Minneapolis/St. Paul.  He tells the harrowing story of his vaccine injury — including what it has cost him in time, money, and anguish.  He’s not alone.  But his story is unique.

COVID Stories Still Matter

Alan Dershowitz is one of the most celebrated lawyers in the world.  He joins Michele to discuss (1) how he intends to hold anti-Israeli NON-PEACEFUL protesters accountable in court and defend — pro bono — Jews who’ve been victimized by these attacks… (2) how and why antisemitism has taken root in academia… and (3) his latest book, “Get Trump: The Threat to Civil Liberties, Due Process, and our Constitutional Rule of Law.”  You can’t hear Dershowitz speak on college campuses anymore (he tells us why), so listen to him here.
