Jason and AC have always believed that most of us have more in common than we think. But the deepening political divide—especially when it comes to Donald Trump—has challenged that belief. In this episode, they talk openly about how political polarization has made it harder to communicate with people we care about, even when respect and shared history are still present. They reflect on the growing difficulty of finding common ground when values seem to conflict at a fundamental level.

While they don’t claim to have the answer, they remain committed to the idea that respectful conversation matters. And even if today’s climate feels discouraging, they still believe in the possibility of reconnection. This episode doesn’t solve the problem—but it doesn’t give up on it either.
