Episode 45: Making Boilers, Changing Discourse with Patrick Petersen and Dansen Wang


Listen Later

In this episode, UnityNow’s Toby Davis sits down with Purdue students Dansen Wang and Patrick Petersen, members of their school’s Political Discourse Club (PDC). They discuss the challenges of running the PDC and fostering healthy conversation between members of different political tribes. Is it better to focus on policy positions, or look at the philosophy of dealing with various issues? How do you make sure discussions work off a shared set of facts? What are the hardest discussion topics to keep civil? And how do current undergraduates view the hot topics of the day?
