Today's episode is all about inspiring you to engage with your dreams in 2021! We've had an undeniably rough 2020, and we wanted to start 2021 on an upbeat note. Therefore, we're beginning the year with a re-telling of the amazingly inspiring Susan Boyle story--her 2009 audition on BRITAIN'S GOT TALENT, its incredible outcome and her unbelievable success as the singer she always dreamed of being.  We follow this up with quick discussions of other BRITAIN'S GOT TALENT standouts and a short synopsis of a great scene in FACING THE GIANTS. 

Dreams DO come true!

Our Political Talk segment today features a dramatic (!) reading from the United States Constitution; Kelly reads the Twelfth Amendment, ratified in 1804, and we discuss what it means for presidential elections and how it might affect what's happening today in the joint session of Congress to certify the votes from the 2020 election.
