A podcast born out of love. How a book gave way to a podcast. A new form of captivity has emerged—draped in rainbows, driven by ideology, and enforced through shame. Rich Guggenheim—a gay rights activist and scientist—exposes how gender ideology hijacked the LGB movement, medicalized vulnerable children, erased same-sex attraction, and silenced dissent through blacklisting, censorship, and fear. With global evidence—from the Cass Review to the WPATH Files, and from school policies to hospital protocols—Guggenheim exposes how gender ideology has not only destabilized childhood, but also undermined the very foundation of society: the family. It has corrupted the pillars we once trusted most: Science. Medicine. Academia. Media. Government. These institutions were built to seek truth, serve the public, and protect the vulnerable. Today, they’ve become tools of indoctrination and enforcement—compelling speech, concealing data, and silencing opposition. This book is a warning—and a roadmap. A warning that if we do not resist, we risk losing the meaning of woman, the safety of children, and the integrity of our civil society. And a roadmap for how to reclaim reality, rebuild our institutions, and escape the rainbow plantation once and for all. This isn’t just about policy. It’s about truth, liberty, and the survival of the family as the cornerstone of a free society.

Simon Amaya Price, a native Bostonian, is a passionate advocate for desisters and detransitioners. A music enthusiast and Berklee College of Music alumnus, Simon faced severe homophobic bullying in middle school, leading him to question his identity in ninth grade. Despite pressure from doctors to pursue hormone therapy, his father’s refusal allowed Simon to eventually desist, a decision he now considers lifesaving. Simon’s journey inspired him to speak out, despite facing death threats, doxxing attempts, and hostility from peers at Berklee, where his event on detransition was initially silenced. Undeterred, he collaborated with the Foundation for Individual Rights and Expression (FIRE) and the MIT Open Discourse Society to host the event at MIT, later joining the LGB Courage Coalition, Democrats for an Informed Approach to Gender, and Do No Harm to amplify his message. His advocacy has reached lawmakers in multiple states and the Federal Trade Commission, emphasizing the risks of medical transitions for LGB and neurodivergent youth. Simon proves to us every day that he will choose the right path over the easy one, always.
