EP. 406 — 406: Reproductive Coercion, Trump Admin Asks SCOTUS to Legalize Firing LGBTQ Workers, Guest Kayla McLaughlin

The latest stories on this week’s Throwing Shade – but first, a very important Lori Loughlin update! Erin talks about a recent study regarding “reproductive coercion,” or the interference with a partner’s reproductive decision-making process, and other sad facts relating to the abusive behavior. Then, Bryan takes us through the most recent Trump injustice following a request by the administration asking the Supreme Court to legalize firing employees on the basis of sexual orientation. Plus, Physician Assistant Kayla McLaughlin joins to discuss what drew her to the field of transgender medicine, little-known facts about gender affirming surgery, and the one time she spent a holiday with Keanu Reeves.
