We always see kids used in political ads, campaign flyers, or posed for the perfect picture — but how often do we actually hear from them?

This week on the podcast, I brought on my son Connor for a conversation that was real, unfiltered, and refreshingly human. We talked everything from surviving a zombie apocalypse to what he’d do for the city if he were a councilman.

It was a reminder that being human isn’t about titles or politics — it’s about perspective, imagination, and having real conversations that matter.

Sometimes the most insightful voices aren’t in office… they’re still doing homework.
