About This Podcast
Without questions, we don’t get answers. Amid the swirl of opinions being thrown around in today’s world, what I call a mix of news and hysteria, how often are we actually going through the process of breaking down the plethora of opinions to be able to come up our own rational thoughts about what makes sense? I try to take a current news story and present both sides in a rational way. Opinions formed? Yes. But a little better understanding of what makes sense.
