You Can’t Shame People Into Agreement (Hour 2)

November 20, 2024

Last hour, callers brought up the lies being spread about transgender people posing a danger to cisgender folks in bathrooms and sports. Trygve Olson sticks with us for a few extra minutes to address the reality of the situation. He also conveys an important message: you can’t shame people into changing their minds on something. 

For today’s edition of What’s Worse, Todd asks if you dread doctor visits or loathe dental appointments. 

At the bottom of the hour, Todd brings us some positive news for prospective college students in rural Wisconsin. Despite the closure of several two-year UW campuses, the Wisconsin Rural Youth Scholarship Program is designed to help get these students into schools they may not otherwise be able to afford.
