Erin covers how women are exposing the "bro-coding" algorithm on LinkedIn by changing their gender marker from female to male and seeing an increase in their reach and visibilty on the networking platform. Bryan discusses the modern day Lavender Scare and how right-wing influencers and government officials are on the hunt for "woke" government employees and policies and firing people for how they identify.
