Navigating the icy divides of American politics, we're reminded that the frost has bitten before. We reflect on the turbulent times from the 1960s to the 1980s, drawing parallels and seeking solace in the strength and unity that history shows us is possible. Laughter isn't far behind as we recount the tale of an email scam with the classic premise of an unexpected windfall, proving that some things, like the need for digital vigilance, never change no matter the era.

With a sharp turn into the serious bends of current affairs, we dissect the intricate layers of new legislation on gun control, tax relief in New Mexico, and the imperative for voter involvement in governmental account. The conversation doesn't shy away from the hard-hitting topics of border crisis, lack of media oversight, and the stances of Senator John Fetterman that cross party lines, much to our surprise. We're piecing together the puzzle of media bias and political transparency, hoping to arm you, our listeners, with a clearer picture of the world outside your frost-covered windows.

Welcome to an episode that takes you from personal family stories to tackling the hard-hitting issues of our time. We share the joy of watching our daughter's school play and how it led to a broader discussion about her struggles with swimming, and all the life lessons that experience has taught us. It's a conversation that reflects our own experiences, competitiveness and resilience.

The world is complex, and so are our discussions. We don't shy away from voicing our views on issues like the push unwise for EV mandates in New Mexico, or the controversial political attacks happening right now.

If it's sparking debate, we're talking about it.

We're not just about the discussions, but also about critiquing the critics. As Elon Musk faces off with environmentalists and Pope Francis calls for the end of fossil fuels, we talk about the negative implications of merging faith and environmental movements. We also analyze the ongoing border crisis, the escalating situation in Texas and Arizona, thanks to the Biden administration's policy failure. Lastly, we give our spin on the DeSantis and Newsom debate and what we think about DeSantis's performance. Buckle up, it's a wild ride of discussion, debate and discovery.

Our exclusive chat with Paul Gessing of the Rio Grande Foundation is an absolute must-listen for anyone curious about the inner workings of New Mexico's economic landscape. Gessing pulls no punches in laying bare the threats posed by current policies, while also illuminating pathways to improvement and growth. 

A significant segment of our discussion orbits around the dramatic push towards Electric Vehicles (EVs) in New Mexico, a move championed by Governor Lujan Grisham. The implications are vast and to be frank not good; from environmental impacts to the strain on the electricity grid, the fallout on car dealers, and, not to mention, the consumers. We don't hold back as we question the feasibility and potential negative ramifications of this potentially seismic shift in the state's automotive industry.

Our genuine concern over the possible impact of the EV mandate on rural areas leads to a discussion on the obstacles faced by manufacturers in producing EVs at a profitable cost. The political landscape in New Mexico is further scrutinized through the lens of Governor Michelle Lujan Grisham's failed policies.
