  How European Speech Laws Are Silencing Americans Online (Feat. Lorcan Price)

  Aug 18, 202629 min

  In this episode of The Pod Millennial , host Libby Emmons opens with a personal story about her father tossing a Beastie Boys cassette out the car window and her thoughts on parental responsibility vs. censorship. Then, attorney Lorcan Price of Alliance Defending Freedom International joins the show to unpack how the EU's Digital Services Act and the "Brussels Effect" are quietly exporting European speech restrictions to American platforms—and by extension, Americans. They cover Germany's law against insulting politicians, the shifting definitions of "hate speech" and "Islamophobia," how free speech advocacy flipped from left to right over the past three decades, and why AOC and Mamdani's calls for the U.S. to embrace international human rights law should worry anyone who values the First Amendment.

  Pregnancy at 42 & the Lies Culture Tells About Your Biological Clock (Feat. Rachel Reeves)

  Aug 11, 202636 min

  What if everything culture tells you about the "right time" to have a baby is wrong? This week, Libby Emmons sits down with Rachel Reeves — political commentator, writer, and mom of four — to talk about what our culture gets wrong about motherhood, fertility, and the so-called perfect timeline for women's lives. Rachel had her fourth daughter at 42, and she's not here to apologize for it. She opens up about the shocking questions her doctors asked her during that pregnancy, the pressure women face to follow a prescribed life script — college, career, then maybe kids — and why she believes releasing control opened her family up to unexpected joy.

  Book Banning, Then and Now, Feat. ‘Cis White Gay’ Author Ben Appel

  Aug 4, 202654 min

  What does a 1980s sitcom about banning Huckleberry Finn have to do with today's censorship battles?  On this episode of The Pod Millennial , host Libby Emmons opens with a look back at a surprisingly prescient Family Ties episode about free speech and book bans — then welcomes author Ben Appel to unpack the bizarre censorship of his book “ Cis White Gay: The Making of a Gender Heretic” and what it reveals about a movement that claims to fight for acceptance while quietly punishing anyone who steps out of line. Ben traces the eerie parallels between the authoritarian cult he was raised in and the ideological conformity he encountered at Columbia University, where he says he learned fast that his identity mattered more than his actual views. It's a candid conversation about ideological capture, dogma dressed up as liberation, and what it costs to speak an inconvenient truth. Find Ben Appel on X @benapell , on Substack (Ben Appel's Newsletter), and at benapellwrites.com . His book Cis White Gay: The Making of a Gender Heretic is available in hardcover, paperback, e-book, and audiobook wherever books are sold. This episode is sponsored by SoundMoney.

  Gold Just Got An Upgrade: Buy It Like Bitcoin, Send It Like Venmo

Open a free account: https://www.sound.money/libby In this special episode, Libby Emmons sits down with Josh Anderson, co-founder of SoundMoney, to break down why buying precious metals has traditionally felt expensive, complicated, and out of reach for everyday people — and how his company is changing that. Josh explains how SoundMoney lets anyone buy gold and silver fractionally, starting with as little as $1, at the same price per ounce as large buyers get. They cover how the platform works from account setup to instant liquidation, why storing your metals in SoundMoney's insured, and how gold and silver have historically preserved purchasing power far better than cash — including some eye-opening real-world comparisons and decades of dollar inflation. Whether you're gold-curious or just tired of watching cash lose value, this conversation makes the case for why real assets belong in everyone's portfolio — not just banks and hedge funds.

  Trapped With Predators: An Incarcerated Woman Exposes California's Trans Prison Policy

  Jul 28, 202623 min

  In this episode of The Pod Millennial , host Libby Emmons examines the controversial policy allowing biological men who identify as transgender to be housed in California's women's prisons. In an exclusive interview, Libby spoke to Tomiekia Johnson, an inmate at the Central California Women's Facility in Chowchilla who was convicted after a fatal domestic violence altercation with her husband. Johnson describes being forcibly housed with convicted male rapists and child molesters, detailing sexual harassment, assault, and retaliation she and other women have faced for speaking out — while alleging that the men involved face little to no consequences. Johnson also discusses the Department of Justice's ongoing investigation into the California prison system, led by Assistant Attorney General Harmeet Dhillon.
