Before the Positive Cynicism Podcast Network (#PCPN) was formed, Politicalamity was part of the Positive Cynicism series on the Jittery Monkey Podcast Network.  Those episodes have been repurposed for the "From the Archives" series here.

With the midterm elections quickly approaching, @chadsmart ventures into the convention halls to experience his first PolitiCon. Speakers from all sides of the political spectrum take over the Los Angeles convention center to share their thoughts on the current political landscape.

Chad samples a little of everything. From reasons why not to be a liberal to #MeToo to former American Idol contestant Clay Aiken moderating a discussion with conservative fireball Tomi Lahren, no topic was left unspoken. What was the takeaway? Are we heading to a political showdown with swords drawn or is there a chance to coexist even if you don't agree with the person next to you? Find out Chad's thoughts in this edition of Positive Cynicism.
