The conversation also touches on the contentious issue of transgender athletes in sports, cultural shifts in political trust, and Newsom's leadership accountability, culminating in a discussion about the future of California politics.Are you a Californian who feels isolated and alone in your political views in a deep blue state? Feel like you can’t talk about insane taxes, an overbearing government, and radical social experiments without getting a side eye?
