Today I speak with Andrea Ramsey, who is running to be the 2018 Democratic nominee for Kansas’ Third Congressional District. I also disclose my Big Mood about 2018 elections at the state and national level.
Today I speak with Kristin Schultz, campaign consultant for Carl Gerlach’s re-election campaign for Overland Park Mayor. We discuss how anti-government ideologues are seeking to re-make city government in the Brownback model.
Young adult writer Paffi Flood, author of "Mystery Ink: A Killer Strikes Home" and I talk about the Young Adult online community and the strength and hope of their fandom as a bright point in the #Resistance.
Todd Stone shares his journey as a conservative activist who became alienated from the Republican party in his ‘30s and ‘40s to eventually cast his first vote for a Democrat in 2016. His story is one of persuasion through critical thought and how he uses the rhetorical language of conservatism to persuade others to support progressive goals. Also, I get vulnerable.
This week, I talk to Planet Comicon creators and cosplayers about what they geek out over and what meaning they derive from the act of fandom.
Davis Hammet and Gail Shafton chat with me about Millennials (all good, I promise), Climate, Justice, and Jobs, and how the way we treat Earth is part and parcel of how we treat one another.
JoCo native, Olathe teacher, and State Representative for House District 29 Brett Parker talks fiscal conservatism, efficiencies, and the rights of individuals. Did I mention he’s a Democrat?
KU Political Science professor Patrick Miller dashes my idealism, as we parse the terms Moderate and Extremist and ask of the #ksleg Twitter: Why Can't We All Just Get Along?
