The Moderate Podcast

This week, we pointed out several examples of leaders being disingenuous...which can only mean we are close to an election!  We talk about what people are missing about wanting to send kids back to school, the status of suburbs, and school choice.  We also touch upon the passing of civil rights icon John Lewis, how Coronavirus has hampered my travel plans, and Big Brother.

This week, my dad joins the podcast to talk about the #cancelhamilton movement, and cancel culture in general, as well as some of the history around the electoral college, Civil War, and California statehood. We also talk about the possible return of Big Brother and the return of the NHL, NBA, and NFL.

I don't know what it is, but people have all of these (stupid) reasons why they don't want to wear a mask. Is it because they simply don't like to be told what to do? Is it because they only care about themselves and "aren't afraid of the virus"? Is it because of some vast left wing conspiracy? Who knows! But we talk about it all on today's program.

Also, we talk about President Trump's speech at Mt. Rushmore and, as a special treat, my kids come on to talk about their Zoom learning experience and how they see the next school year going.

This week, I address a video sent to me by a listener about the switch in the parties. Also, I talk about the confusion involving Bubba Wallace and the hangings in the High Desert region of Southern California, a new encryption act introduced in the Senate, Trump's COVID testing joke, and the return of Major League Baseball.

First of all, I apologize for the length of this episode...but when you're trying to tackle such a complex issue, it's going to get long. This week, I dive deep into racism and what the left and right are saying the problems are. But do they offer solutions? Do they even agree what the problems are? Or how to solve them? I get into all of it, and how this issue might get fixed once and for all.

It's the second weekend of the month, which means my dad is on the show this week! Coming to a day earlier than normal, we talk a little bit about a variety of subjects in terms of what's going on the world right now, including police brutality, the Coronavirus, presidential politics, and the Confederate flag.

This week, I go into a deep discussion about the debate on racial inequality, and attempt to get to the root cause. I also reflect on how we can perhaps try to begin solving the true root causes of the divides that we see.

As if it wasn't crazy enough, the world has gotten even crazier in the past week. We talk about Trump going off the deep end on several subjects, some of the activity at the State Department, and of course, the murder of George Floyd.

This week, I get into the instincts and psychology of politics and why there is a difference between what's happening in blue states versus red states during this pandemic. I also talk about the myths from the "documentary" Plandemic and the latest Joe Biden gaffe.
