Dear Listeners: 

We are finally back! The Last season of High School Politicast has certainly been an eventful one, we were able to witness political turmoil and cries for social reform happen before our very eyes and share our opinions with you all. As 2021 unfolds, new issues emerge in our country's social and political scene. The big question of this episode is: How will President Biden handle these issues and what will the future of our democracy look like under his administration? In the first episode of season 2, featuring Uchan Hwang, we attempt to answer this question. 

ATTENTION LISTENERS! This is the special episode we've been excited to announce: We are incredibly honored to have former state senator Mr. Josh Newman to chat with us about the current corruption issues regarding lobbying and campaigning in our government. As an experienced political activist and a firm advocate for grassroots lobbying, Mr. Newman shares information that is essential for understanding the grand scheme of the November election. Hope you enjoy this episode!

Hello friends! We are aware that we have been on a short hiatus, but we'd like to call it the calm before the storm.

So take a listen if you want an insight into what made this year's debate a huge meme on the internet.

The Middle East is often seen as a place drenched in constant warfare and unrest. The dark past of religious conflicts and ethnic hatred can still be reflected in the region today. One of the classic examples,  the conflict between Israel and Palestine, has been a major source of global attention. In this episode, we stray away from American politics to sit down and discuss with Sondos Elbershawi about the intricate nature of this dispute. 

The ability to end the creation of life--the fundamental mechanism that enables the manifestation of human legacy--has also become a hotbed conflicting philosophies. On one side, the stringent support for women's rights defines pro-choice supporters. On the polar opposite end, the divinity of life fuels the opinions of pro-life supporters. In this episode, featuring Priyanshi Singh, we dissect both perspectives in a detailed manner.  

Las Vegas, El Paso, Parkland, Columbine...Throughout the recent history of the United States, countless lives were lost in the hands of merciless gunners who devastated the nation with one shooting after another. To the Americans, however, the right to bear arms is part of the national identity and an unalienable right granted by the Constitution. Faced with two conflicting perspectives, this episode, featuring Uchan Hwang, pertains to the issue of gun control.
