About this episode

In the 100th episode, Lizette and guest Luchina Fisher discuss parenting, LGBTQ issues, and recent social events.

In our 100th episode of the Parent Advocate, Lizette and I bring back their our first guest, Emmy award winning director, Luchina Fisher, and talk about her upcoming feature, The Dads, what life has been like since she first appeared on our show, and advice she has for parents navigating this moment. In Today’s Topics we cover the end of Tucson Pride, Nicki Minaj going off on a homophobic tirade on Don Lemon, and the Department of Education opening a Title IX investigation into a middle school because a trans student joined the co-ed cheerleading squad. Finally, in Allies & Assholes we celebrate MacKenzie Scott for her historic $45 million donation to the Trevor Project to support LGBTQ suicide prevention. And we drag Bill Donohue, president of Catholic League, for his unhinged screed about Renee Nicole Good, the mother killed by ICE agents in Minneapolis.
