How can we possibly even begin to understand the other side's perspective if we never see what they're seeing? Today we welcome Howard Polskin, founder of the media site, The Righting - a publication created to help readers stay informed about the conversations taking place across conservative media without requiring them to immerse themselves in it. Rather than asking readers to consume hours of conservative programming, TheRighting provides a curated snapshot of the topics influencing millions of Americans.

We discuss why understanding opposing media ecosystems matters, how narratives develop before reaching mainstream attention, what today's media landscape means for political polarization, and whether Americans can bridge divides by first understanding what information each side is consuming.

This conversation isn't about telling you what to believe. It's about recognizing that if we want to understand our neighbors—or our politics—we have to understand the information shaping both. Because meaningful conversations don't begin with agreement. They begin with understanding.
