Riley Gaines Barker trained her entire life to compete at the highest level of women’s swimming. Then one race changed everything. How did 1/100 of a second in the pool turn a competitive swimmer into a national voice in one of today’s biggest cultural battles? In this much-anticipated episode, Riley joins Frank to tell the story leading up to that moment and how it transformed her life. From tying biological male "Lia" Thomas in the women’s 200 free (yet they gave HIM the trophy!) to confronting NCAA officials, lawsuits, protests, and even serious threats of violence, Riley shares how she unexpectedly found herself leading the charge on the front lines of truth and reality. You'll learn: -- What was it like for Riley to compete against William “Lia” Thomas? -- What gave Riley the courage to speak up after initially remaining silent and who did she go to first? -- Why does Riley believe her journey into advocacy involved divine intervention? -- What career was Riley planning to pursue before starting a podcast and becoming a contributor to TPUSA and FOX News? -- What's the current status of Riley's lawsuit against the NCAA? -- Why is it essential for Christians to vote in the upcoming midterm elections? -- What terrifying event happened to Riley at San Francisco State University in April 2023 and how did university officials respond? -- How did Charlie Kirk personally inspire Riley and how did his tragic death impact her? -- How has becoming a mother changed her perspective on being a political advocate for unpopular truths? -- What advice does Riley have for young people? Defending women’s sports is about much more than who gets the trophy. Don't miss this remarkable story of faith and courage and please pray for Riley as she continues to boldly speak out on this issue that is highly controversial (but wouldn’t be if more would speak up).
