Über diesen Titel

 It started as a fascinating and timely discussion between two friends on their daily walk through Los Angeles in the height of Covid. It's evolved into conversations about current events, public policy and opinion, politics, media, government, economics, business and individual freedoms. Every subject gets UNPACKED, exposing the ideas behind the issues, often boiling down to the central question that drives every opinion and emotion - discussions that you'll rarely, if ever, hear voiced in public. That's what we do in this Podcast. We're just two guys walking and talking; you're welcome to eavesdrop.

  • The State of Social Discourse

    The State of Social Discourse
    Jun 19 2025

    Is the term “truth” divorced from the work “fact?” The flow and free exchange of ideas is the key to a successful society. If you think politics are less polite today than 200 years ago, think again. “Fake news” is as old as civilization. The plethora of news and commentary sources are causing a fragmentation in society. Gone are the days where the big three networks espoused a broad point of view. With so much media, each source caters to a specific audience, a particular point of view, with little overlap. Is this why our country is more polarized than ever?

  • Regulation

    Regulation
    Jun 18 2025

    The pros and cons of government regulation. What is the proper role of government in our lives? If there is a problem, is the solution government, or should government power be exercised as little as possible? What happens when government puts its thumb on the scale of the free market? How can regulations hurt and disincentivize people and companies? What is the definition of “fair?” An eye-opening, possibly infuriating, but always fascinating, conversation.

  • The Second Amendment: Facts, Not Emotions

    The Second Amendment: Facts, Not Emotions
    Jun 17 2025

    The media focuses on certain hair-trigger go-to bullet points (no pun intended) when discussing the very polarizing issue of gun rights. Let's zoom out and understand the context for the Second Amendment, as well as the issues we face today in the 21st century, as opposed to 200+ years ago when the Amendment was written. No matter which side of the issue you're on, this episode should interest you!


    “They who can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety.” – Benjamin Franklin


    “Nothing can stop the man with the right mental attitude from achieving his goal; nothing on earth can help the man with the wrong mental attitude.” – Thomas Jefferson
