n today’s episode, Peter and Sonny concluded the conversation started in episode 79 about our chapter’s legacy in political advocacy. Over the last 50 years, we have taken a stance on what we believe is right, and because of it, our voice is respected. This is the reason why Vice President Pence called ABC the Marine Corps of American Politics. Even those politicians who disagree with us still respect us, which shows that our stance on things is solid and established.

To get the gist of the entire conversation, we recommend you go back to Episode #79 if you haven’t heard that one yet. 

Also, the first person to email The Obvious explaining why Peter rang the bell will win a The Obvious Podcast tumbler just like the one Peter and Sonny have in the show (sans your name).
