  • What a great podcast!

    As someone who lives is Trump country; we were chastised by family members about speaking out against Trump. This podcast has been very informative and helpful as I have balanced the love of family, the desire to not just turn my back in people that are important to me but, but also be true to my own convictions. Thank you!
