"I don't do politics" "Well baby, politics is going to do you!" - Nina Turner, July 6, 2023 People avoid politics because we've been socially conditioned to roll our eyes at anyone involved in making laws. The history of this is intentional and Ryan wants to help people undo that stance. Each episode covers a event, story or theory and why we should reconsider the way we look at things. Everything is political, all politics are local. Your voice is your power.
