Politics and Religion. We’re not supposed to talk about that, right? Wrong! We only say that nowadays because the loudest, most extreme voices have taken over the whole conversation. Well, we‘re taking some of that space back! If you’re dying for some dialogue instead of all the yelling; if you know it’s okay to have differences without having to hate each other; if you believe politics and religi... more

    “When did capitalizing on devastating natural disasters to score political points become a thing?" – Corey Nathan

    2005 Hurricane Katrina. I was 23, so that would have been my earliest recollection of it becoming “a thing.”

  • Great insights, great guests, ideas you can use!

    I am always entertained, fascinated and taught when I listen to Corey and his guests. Used to be a 'compassionate conservative' and in most ways I still am. As a Gold Star dad and faithful Christian, I truly want what is best of all people - not just 'my team.' I try to live that out and my time with Corey helps me consider how to best engage those around me without getting into the P&R stuff before it is safe to do so. Thanks Corey. Would love to meet and talk sometime.
