Anyhoo, Teresa joins Podcast Therapy to geek out on politics and democracy in this country.
As humans, politics can be emotionally charging and exhausting. Everyone has an opinion and it's unfortunate how political biases can affect our relationships.
From pandemic masking to the media channels where you ingest your news, what is fact and what is click bait? Our attention span is waning and who has time to fact-check?
Plus, TLDR. How this generation is getting their news from TikTok.
There is comedic relief to all this heavy talk: a Ted Lasso reference is mentioned and how we fantasize a new way to run debates which might include some lessons from The Voice or Survivor!
Teresa gives us practical tips on how you can make your vote count and a reminder to make sure you’re registered to vote!
In Wisconsin, the local races are this Tuesday, April 5.
