  • Newsom and Kirk chatted about transgender athletes, anti-abortion liberals and whether Democrats could replicate Republican's podcast success.

In a recent episode of his podcast, California Governor Gavin Newsom engaged in a heated debate with conservative commentator Charlie Kirk over the issue of transgender athletes in sports. Newsom criticized Kirk for what he described as "demonizing" transgender children, arguing that the focus on transgender athletes distracts from more pressing issues like gun violence, which he believes is a far greater threat to children's safety. Kirk, on the other hand, maintained his stance against transgender women participating in women's sports, citing concerns over fairness and safety. The discussion highlighted the stark ideological differences between the two, with Newsom advocating for inclusivity and protection of transgender rights, while Kirk emphasized traditional sports categories and the potential disadvantages to cisgender female athletes.
