I found this podcast a week ago and have already listened to all 13 episodes. This has set me on a path of political belief deconstruction. I’m questioning everything I once thought I knew. On the one hand it’s relaxing because it makes the things republicans and democrats fight about look petty but on the other hand it’s terrifying to think there’s nothing that will stop the war machine.
