The Process

Adam gets into a quick debate analysis before having a chat with Andrew Serrone, a disability lawyer from Colorado who had an interesting takeaway from the debate about the "Proud Boys" moment. Then, Adam, Zack, and Sean are back to finish their argument and posit solutions regarding the electoral college. In other words, it's a crazy rad time.

Adam is joined by Zack and Sean to debate the issue of abolishing the electoral college.

Adam and Zack are joined by one of Zack's PHD program friends, a fellow pollitical scientist, Johnathan Eftink to discuss having conversations about politics with the hardline folks, and in particular with a Trump supporter, and how you might find ways to engage in a productive way.

A reading of some of Justice Ginsburg's most famous opinion as a Justice of the US Supreme Court in her honor. Then Adam, Sean, Zack are back together "Talking Politics" as they dig into the issue of a likely nomination coming from President Trump this week.

What the heck is the electoral college and how the heck did we get this thing?

Adam sits down for a chat with Dr. Jim Staab, a professor of political science from the University of Central Missouri to discuss the philosophy and motivation of the founders in forming the electoral college system. We start off with Adam, Sean, and Zack talking politics as they lay out the basics of the Electoral College.

Adam opens this episode with an short "essay" on leadership. Then Zack and Sean are back for "Talking Politics" as the gang talks about that leadership void, Trump's new SCOTUS list, The Missouri Plan for judge retention (and other states), A quick Senate update, and more Presidential Trivia.

Adam is joined by Zack and Sean to discuss the current state of the race, including the Woodward bombshell(s) and the huge problem Democrats face in truly reaching the rural voter who feels left behind and defaults to a figure like Donald Trump. The gang also plays some Presidential Trivia, and there is a NEW DROP!!!!!! You do NOT want to miss it.

Adam has a chat with Lindsey Simmons, Dem. candidate for the MO4th for Congress about her path from rural Missouri, to Harvard, to becoming a Mother, and now a candidate for U.S. Congress. Before that, Adam and Zack have a quick session talking politics looking back at the week for Joe Biden.

Adam and Zack break down Donald Trump's speech from the RNC accepting the GOP nomination for 2020, and his open flaunting of his use of The People's House in his reelection bid, and the realities of the Hatch Act. Then, taking a line from Trump's own speech, they get into the origin and reality of the QAnon conspiracy. Finally, they discuss the impact of these issues on the Trump supporters in places like Kenosha and what the Biden campaign could be doing in response.

Zack and Adam are doing the work so YOU DON'T HAVE TO! They watched (most of) the Republican National Convention and then they talked about it. For a while. Strap in. Also, to our mothers, who might be listening to this, sorry for the swear words in this one. But, well, these last three nights have been a lot.
