Another Smart-Ass Perspective

We're Scoonie and Meagan, a couple of smart-ass friends from Ohio. We both have an opinion about everything, but also love learning and growing through our own experiences, and the experiences of others. We are two people who can see the value in discussing complex and difficult topics, but also want to have fun and create a space to escape. Our goal is to build a community, based on real conversations, where nuance and the uncommon thought is encouraged. We invite you to send us anything: Shocking videos, political articles, relationship questions, funny randomness, and everything in between. Email us directly at anothersmartassperspective@gmail.com, or follow us on the usual social networking platforms for up to date information and new episodes.
