Most of us care about the same issues but have clouded perspectives because of our bloated state of division. Chris uses our varying views of media, Covid, vaccination, and the way we vote to invoke a sense of what matters most to each of us.

Chris uses his own experiences of being targeted by gotcha journalism to exemplify how distorted the truth can become by the time it reaches its audience.

Chris navigates through the difficult task we face when trying to find the truth in our leaders, our politics, our media, and ourselves.

Chris examines the unfortunate truth that while we have just celebrated what should be the unifying holiday of July 4th, we are still divided with regards to January 6th, the presidential election, the pandemic, and vaccination.

With the media having such a large impact on how we perceive social issues, Chris decides to address how cancel culture, "wokeness", and gotcha journalism can all increase our division.

In this immersive news cycle, Chris gives perspective on Bill Cosby's overturned conviction, the SCOTUS decisions in cases out of Arizona and California, and what we know so far about the indictments of Allen Weisselberg and the Trump Org. And a look at applying our collective "why?".

S.D. Governor Noem ordered up National Guard troops from her state to the Texas border using private GOP mega-donor funds. Are they supposed to be deployed for a political gambit? Can MAGA win again or is Trump's influence waning? And do either the bipartisan infrastructure bill or the Dem reconciliation piece stand a chance in the House or Senate?

Chris looks at the media game of false stakes, feel over fact and how that merges with the acquisition and retention of power. It's about how you understand what's happening around you in real time, and the media is not immune from erring in how and when they analyze what's important.
