Can you imagine converting a historic church into a rock climbing gym? This week, we tackle the controversy surrounding the potential repurposing of St. Anthony's Catholic Church in Toledo, Ohio. As plans emerge to transform the church, we question the suitability of one idea for the distressed neighborhood and explore possible alternatives.We also touch on the deletion of a scene in the 1971 film The French Connection. What are the implications of the scene's removal, and how does it affect our perception of the characters played by Gene Hackman and Roy Schneider? Is this just a political issue?Lastly, we discuss the anti-LGBTQ advocacy of the American College of Pediatricians and the introduction of the transgender ban on gender-affirming care in Ohio. The group colluded with another hate group to manufacture medical justification to harm LGBTQ+ people.Show Notes01:00 Five Years Later Still No Use For Old Church19:43 Revising Classic Media Properties33:16 Hate Groups Colluding To Harm The LGBTQ CommunitySend us a textSupport the showSubscribe to our free newsletterCheck out our MerchFollow us on BlueskyFind us on Twitter(for now) Find us on InstagramFind us on Counter SocialFind us on Mastadon
