We spoke with Knowles -- a longtime podcast host at Ben Shapiro's Daily Wire -- came by "TMZ Live" Wednesday to discuss the court's ruling this week ... explaining he's all for it because mental health issues in the trans community prevent them from being effective soldiers.

JoJo gave more details to hosts Cat Deeley and Ben Shephard ... saying that even though 'CBB' was only 3 weeks long, it felt like 4 years. Naturally, she was ready to fix what needed repairing as soon as she left -- and it seems Kath ended up bearing the brunt of that.
