Notre Dame basketball coach Muffet McGraw wasn’t planning on making a speech about feminism and gender equality. But at a press conference before the Final Four tournament, that’s just what she did, launching into a screed about the dearth of women in government, politics, corporate C-suites, and sports. “We don’t have enough female role models,” McGraw said. “Men run the world!” The viral moment was a lifetime in the making.
Guest: Muffet McGraw, head coach of the Notre Dame women’s basketball team.

Why did some millennials vote for President.Barack Obama in 2012 and President Donald Trump in 2016? Jonathan Jakubowski, author of "Bellwether Blues: A Conservative Awakening of the Millennial Soul," joins The Daily Signal Podcast to discuss.

It didn’t happen because of one podcast or one show or one friend. It was conversations. It was things that they read. It was life events that ultimately culminated in a deep change."
