The Daily Signal - Casey Mattox on Why Students Who Fight for Free Speech Often Win

Free speech has seen better days on the college campus. Increasingly, conservative ideas are unwelcome and even shouted down. At some schools, religious groups are being kicked off campus for not allowing non-believers to run their organization. It’s a concerning state of affairs—and yet, many students are pushing back and winning in the courtroom. In today's episode, I speak with Casey Mattox about upholding the First Amendment on campus. We also discuss whether tech companies have any role in protecting free speech.

Read the lightly edited transcript of the interview, posted below, or listen on the podcast:

We also cover the following stories:

  • Daily Signal pushes back on YouTube after being censored.
  • U.S. family is massacred in Mexico by drug cartels.
  • Project Veritas hot mic sheds light on a potential Epstein cover-up.

Brought to you by... - 38: The Coed Scouts of America

The Boy Scouts of America (BSA) caused a stir when it reversed its “no girls allowed” rule for the Boy Scouts last year. But it turns out, this isn’t the first time the BSA has gone coed. We take a closer look at what happened, and one Sea Scout reflects on how gender affected her experience in the Scouts.

CORRECTION: An earlier version of this episode made reference to new Boy Scout (now known as Scout BSA) troops including girls and boys. While there are now all-girl and all-boy Scout BSA troops which sometimes participate in activities and events together, there are not currently coed troops.

Philosophers In Space - 0G79: The Ones Who Stay and Fight and The Paradox of Tolerance

Now imagine an even greater and glorious afrofuturist podcast, where everyone gets equitable access to boxes. What price would you be willing to pay for that podcast?! Could you truly enjoy such a podcast knowing that those who challenge the podcast are summarily executed? What if we call their objections a disease that must be cut out at the root? Better or worse?

This week we're doing the N.K. Jemisin's The Ones Who Stay and Fight, and we cover the paradox of tolerance and try to interpret what the story is saying about this very relevant issue.
