Ever wonder who started this whole presidency job and created every tradition that we know and love in this nation’s government? That’s right, Washington! But how far have we strayed from the blueprint? Is the president just a figurehead? Wasn’t that the whole point of the genesis of the presidency, to avoid creating another socialistic monarchy?

Remember the days of opening up your newspaper and having time to digest the news, and not getting polarized ideas shot at you at light speed on TikTok… with no time to digest what you’ve just heard?! You do? Then you’re in luck, this week is all about what a moderate vote means, and how powerful moderate ideas can be in such a polarized political universe we exist in. The evolution of what a moderate vote/opinion means is astounding… they’re really just people who take a minute to digest who they’re voting for and what they believe in… much like we did once upon a time, in the age of carbon-scented newspapers and intelligent conversations.

This week is one of those weeks where our team really had to test our devotion to the show’s motto, having really uncomfortable, but important and necessary conversations. It’s no secret that harsh language causes a really aggressive and harmful narrative for everyone of every race and culture. We need to recognize that and change the direction these conversations are headed, especially for the next generation. The rhetoric is broken, we’re trying to earn equity with passive aggressive language and blanket statements, and it’s just simply not going to work. Like, comment, follow, and message us anytime!
This week it’s back to basics. Everyone needs to be reminded of where they came from, so that’s what we decided to do!

A day after the 21st anniversary of the tragic day 9/11, we reflect on the origin of our great heroes. How did the police and other forms of law enforcement/safety begin? Do those beginnings influence how different members of our nation see law enforcement today, particularly police officers. We dig deep, but it gets good and enlightened! Share with your friends and have important conversations with those who you wouldn’t ever think to.
This week is all about discovering different perspectives and how they see our same world; more specifically tapping into young minds and asking them what their initial thoughts of media were. To kick this segment off, we have Ava Cuchiarale and her incredible insight on what makes today’s media and generation, different than others. This sets the tone for understanding why people believe what they believe! Enjoy:)
Welcome back everyone! We’re back with a really heavy, but VERY important topic. This was hard to get through and hits close to home during this time of strife in the nation, but is ESSENTIAL to discuss. We need to stop having amnesia and desensitization to these shootings. Is it terrifying? Sure. But breaking it down and learning about the history of these tragedies, really brings awakening on how differing sides could come TOGETHER and make a big difference. Learning about this and wanting to prevent them from happening, does not mean we hate guns or want them taken away from people; instead it means we care about the world and just want a little more control in who’s pulling that trigger. Give it a listen on Spotify or Apple Podcasts, it’s a must listen if you want the right sort of change.
