On This week's episode, I'm trying something a little different. Due to unfortunate circumstances I have no guest. So instead of giving you nothing, and at the risk of giving you something mediocre at best, I decided to record a short episode, on my own.

Warning: Spoilers for "Joker" movie inside.

This week, Steve sits down with returning guest Mike E to get honest about bridging the racial divide. Many of us have acquaintances from different racial or ethnic backgrounds, but too often we don't experience firsthand what it is to truly befriend someone from those different backgrounds. Steve and Mike navigate these touchy subjects, and try to focus on the things that we have in common, instead of the things that separate us.

This week, Steve brings back returning guest, Will H, to take a somewhat deep dive into the online ideology known as "Red Pill". The two discuss all the different emotional traumas, life experiences, and misconceptions that lead young men to this school of thought.
