What a journey I’ve embarked on since the launch of this project. I’m going to take some time to recenter myself and this podcast, but do not fear, I’ll be back soon!

This general election is so different that it’s hard to remember a time when election season was about policy proposals and not about conspiracy theories. The era of Trump has brought about so much stormy chaos.

IT'S EPISODE 10 AND I HAVE A SPECIAL GUEST!! That's right, my very good friend Vince joins me to discuss how the lack of training for police has led to the huge public bashing of police in the United States. As a first responder, Vince has a unique angle on the training, culture, and mindset of a first responder. We aslo talk about how police should be more supported emotionally and objectively. And of course, we play a game, because what would an episode of OTF be without one. In the news roundup, Trump and Pence have had really bad weeks (so just another week for them), and why the fly was the only real winner of the debate.

The president tested positive for COVID-19! Yet Republicans still aren’t taking the virus seriously. Can’t you just wear a mask for your friends, family, and neighbors? And, what a week to be an Evertonian. Feels good to have the blues!

That was a rough “debate”.

This week’s episode is all about job searching through a health pandemic, and what kinds of changes will come from it. Working from home and classist internships are just two of the many topics I talk about. Trump’s taxes and Supreme Court nominee feature, and would you rather control or read minds?

Have you ever wondered why people vote based on their faith even when church and state are supposed to be separate? What is politics and is it not the same as government? Plus, the ramifications of the passing of the Notorious RBG.

What is an adult relationship? How different is it from a college relationship? Why is reaching out to people so hard? I talk about this and more this week, and how 9/11 can teach us how the world will look post-COIVD.

Premier league table prediction!! Also, I rip on our dumbass president and Russia’s COVID-19 vaccine. But mainly, this week’s episode is a discussion on the disparity between public and private schools, and how equal access doesn’t equal equal education.

This week, not a lot of good news, and I play would you rather again. I dissect and deconstruct the arguments on both sides for abortion, taxes, the military, and guns. The media twists the true argument around each topic, so I peel back the layers and get to the root of each issue.
