Third Rail with Nick Beaton: A Comedy Guide to Social Outrage

Comedy


On this week's episode I talk about Naomi Osaka.  She's been in the spotlight recently as a beacon for strong women and mental health awareness, but has she really done anything other than throw a tantrum about hating press conferences?  I also talk about Brian Stelter's interview with Jen Psaki.  He asks a question so softball, he should stop pretending he's a journalist.   My guest this week is Steven Kerzner.  We talk about a woman in Scotland who faces up to two years in jail for tweets that were deemed transphobic. We end up talking about about trans activism in general. Full Video here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IxceADNROrY All of that and more!  Plus the "Tweets of the Week" and the "Ground News Blindspot of the Week" segments.
