  • Episode 2: Let's Talk Politics (Federal Edition)

    Join us for another episode as we get ready to head into another federal election (we swear we just had one....). 

    In this episode we go through some handy resources to help you get familiar with who the parties are, what they stand for, what the federal government is responsible for, and how you can vote. 

    While we're sure most of you can guess where we politically lean (sorry, not sorry?), our goal of this episode was more to help you understand what the heck all of this means and provide you some tools to help you feel more confident in your voting choices, whatever that may look like.
