  • Ep12: China’s Power Move-Belt and Road Initiative
    Ep12: China’s Power Move-Belt and Road Initiative 
    Hosts Bennett and Ashley, have Meg Thomas on the show from a meta-perspective to demonstrate the magnitude of the actions being taken by the Chinese to secure their future dominance when it comes to trade. It seems like China is definitely woke enough to understand that the war of dominance cannot be won using force but rather by more conventional means, trade domination. China is out to re-create the ancient Silk Road and upgrade it to a level the world has never seen before. We discuss the Chinese strategies used to make deals with these nations for cooperation even if it's not always in their best interest...Listen for more! Thanks for your support.

  • Ep10: Hong Kong Protests with Meg Thomas

    Hosts, Bennett and Ashley have Special Guest Meg Thomas who has been studying Chinese Language and Culture, for at least 12 years and has a degree in International Business. We discuss the fundamentals of the situation and how we came to this turning point in the country that uses a unique government structure with their One Country Two Systems plan. When the Chief Executive (HK's version of a President) announced the arrival of a bill that would allow the extradition of Hong Kongers to Mainland China to be criminally tried in Chinese courts. The people of Hong Kong have since risen up and taken to the streets to protest the Chinese State, police forces, and the proposed bill (that has since been shelved).  We also discuss the significance of Umbrellas in the resistance movement in Hong Kong.

  • Ep8: AOC SLAMS house Republicans, 2020 most expensive Dem primary EVER, DNC member tries subverting the candidate with the most voter support

    Host, Bennett and Co-host, Ashley,  dive deep into today's most controversial topics with a strong perception when it comes to being on right side of history. 

    • Episode 8 begins with a clip of Democratic firebrand, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez berating house republicans for using religion in the most backwards way possible, tip of the hat to AOC on this one. Fantastic job! 
    • Segways into a conversation in which we discuss how much money has been spent so far in this Democratic primary with the help of 2 billionaires running for the nomination. We also compare the money spent in the 2020 Dem primary to 2016, 2012, and 2008 to give a better  perspective of the scale to which money continues to influence our elections...today. 
    • The hosts also discuss an article by The Intercept in which they sound the alarms on a Tennessee-based DNC member backing an effort to use so-called superdelegates to select the party’s presidential nominee — potentially subverting the candidate with the most voter support — is a Republican donor and health care lobbyist. 
    • Bennett goes off about how frustrating it is to be a progressive within the Democratic party because it seems a lot of their actions goes contrary to that belief.
