Building Whalls

In this episode we chat about the 1st presidential debate of 2020. It was anything, but presidential.

Time to wrap up our 2 part series. We talk about our current political atmosphere and how we would like to branch off and discuss different topics, but NEW things come up every week. Every week. It's amazing. The new stuff this week is of course about our beloved Supreme Court.

If you're a snowflake, beware. If you don't like facts, beware. If only reading headlines and not understanding the full story isn't your thing, beware. Otherwise, have fun. We chat about #sayhername, Netflix's Cuties, officers dying in the line of fire, and all other triggerable offenses. 

Interesting topics from different motivational speakers, to taxes, to video games. What's better to do: gardening or video games? You doing what interests you is better! The world is always evolving. Let's not rest on what was and break the barriers into new things.

No matter what it is so hard to get the whole story. Hypocrisy and biased opinions will run wild if we let them!

We talk about a lot here! Looking at things from different viewpoints and what the foundation of that is. Are the political agendas you follow motivating by fear or by faith and hope? Hopefully the latter. Some say fear is the greatest motivator. I think it is in the short-term. In the long-term it's people's faith and hope that move us forward. 

Most of us have played the board game Monopoly. And, let's be honest there's usually an argument or a fight somewhere in there about "well that's not fair!". We often hear that quite a bit in life. The difference between life and Monopoly is that in one you have full control and in the other you roll the dice. That is, of course, unless you choose to roll the dice in life.

What is the American Dream? Why is this topic important in today's society and how has it shifted over the years? If we move away from the American Dream than we move away from why America was founded in the first place.

Reading headlines can be a dangerous game. Chris posed a question out to the FaceBook audience about whether or not school teachers are essential. We discuss that here. Also...racism is not a systemic issue and is not widespread like the headlines would have you believe. 

What is the role government? More specifically that question has to be broken down to the level of government being referred too whether it's local, state, or federal. At those levels is our current government doing what it should? That's what we discuss.
