Alan discusses the current political situation: the actions of the Trump administration, the flailing of the Democrats, and how they both are complicit in where we find ourselves. He then explains his own political activities and motivations over the last few decades, why he created this channel, and where he might go from here.

Alan interviews Desmond Silveiria, an activist in the American Solidarity Party, about the party's principles, platform, strategies and more. Silveira was the party's Presidential campaign manager in 2016 and a candidate for California Governor in 2018, among other roles he has played in the party.
