Co-hosts Wendy Sheridan and Robin Renée kick off the show with facts about "TikTok voice" and the world's largest baguette in This Fortnight I Learned. In the News, the 4th Circuit Court in Richmond Virginia ruled that state health-care plans must pay for gender-affirming surgeries, Washington state GOP delegates come out against democracy, Methodists end anti-gay bans in the church, and blue whales return near the Seychelles. Before the featured interview in the Geekscape segment, Wendy leads the geek-out about repairing stuff. At the end of the show, Robin nominates Allison Gill for Lefty of the Week.
