The podcast your mother warned you about

Village SquareCast is the podcast your mother warned you about. We talk politics, religion and race — across color, creed and ideology — and we do it like the partners in democracy that we really ought to be.  

At The Village Square, we've had hundreds of conversations with tens of thousands of people — and now we bring you our favorites of these conversations via podcast.  We talk in bars, we talk in churches, we talk across a hundred continuous tables in the middle of a street downtown.  And through all this talking, we've discovered something truly remarkable — people are hard to hate close up.

Oh, and we really think civics ought not to be boring.  We hope you'll join us.
