October 25, 2020 Episode 147: The Republican Party, where do we go from here?
It no surprise that President Trump is a polarizing force, especially within 'conservatives/Republican' circles. We make an attempt to run down possible scenarios of 'what happens to the Republican Party' after the 2020 election. The easy answer is 'it all depends'. Also WTH? is going on with the NY Supreme Court Justice? And Wells Fargo voluntarily creates a program to expand minority homeownership and MN oldest craft brewery, Lake Superior Brewing Co., finds a new home and new owners.

October 18, 2020 Episode 145: All Things Election: Rules, regulations, barriers and where to find solid info.
This episode we discuss all thing election related. The were, how, when etc. As well as some of the rules and regulations that are designed to keep our elections 'safe' and some designed just to keep some people from voting. We also cover President Trumps vow to reverse inclusive language changes to the Navy Seal Ethos & Gov. Abbott's limiting absentee collection boxes to 1 per county in our 'What the Heck?' segments. But never fear because Chef Jose Andres and the World Central Kitchen folks make plans to feed hungry voters and chocolate makes (almost) everything better.

October 11, 2020 Episode 143: Abortion.
In this show we make an attempt to recreate the conversation that started us down the path to what has become Flyover Logic. We feel, particularly in this election season, that it was important to discuss this hot button issue. This subject, more than many others, can be a minefield to navigate. We hope we provide an example of what a productive conversation can look like and show that even when it may seem that the ‘two sides’ may be worlds apart, we likely agree on more than we think. Mainly when it comes to abortion, we all want less.
