Former Paralympian powerlifter and current PhD candidate Ali Jawad joins Nadia and Rob to talk about his journey from the Olympics to founder of the accessible fitness app AccesserCise. They also discuss Microsoft's efforts to push DEI accountability throughout the organization and Goldman Sachs's disappointing representation in leadership promotions. Later our co-hosts discuss a lawsuit against NASCAR for being too woke and the deep chasm where Stephen Miller's soul should be and representation firsts from the past week's elections.
