What a conversation we have here today! Let's be honest we all know that friend who is lost in the world of "political talk." We engage or watch as our friends bring their blood pressure up because this is how their ideal of society "should" act. Shawn and Alex have their own opinions, and they don't matter for this talk because it's not about the policy, it's about the "why?" Why do we get angry, combative, and very biased? Join Shawn with his guest Alex as they dive into why.
