A podcast aimed at getting to the heart of the matter. It's not NOT about politics - but it's about MORE than politics. We'll enter The DEpoliticized Zone and take on topics that are political or political-adjacent but in a non-conventional way: Without reference to politician, party, or ideology - no relying on labels, pigeon holes, or talking points as a crutch.
For this episode of #MTTP, I was joined by RedState Editor at Large Kira Davis, a woman of many talents -- writer, podcaster, political pundit extraordinaire. In addition to the many hats she wears, Kira is a resident of Southern California. And, given the news that's constantly emanating from The Golden State, I thought it might be interesting to chat about it with someone who actually lives there and can speak to the struggles the state is facing as well as some of the glimmers of hope.
For this episode of Moore to the Point, Susie is joined by RedState Senior Editor (and teacher) Joe Cunninghams to discuss education -- particularly through the lens of COVID. They discuss the effects the virus and attendant lockdowns have had on the system, students, parents, and teachers -- and how it may have changed the face of education forever -- all (mostly) without reference to politician, party, or ideology.
In Episode 5, Susie is joined by RedState Managing Editor Bill Crews ("Streiff") to discuss elite incompetence -- or, the myth of the competent elite. They explore what it means to be "elite," why people assume that coincides with competence, and how that plays out in public policy (particularly health policy) and our daily lives -- all (mostly) without reference to politician, party, or ideology.
In Episode 4, Susie is joined by another RedState colleague, Thomas LaDuke ("Duke"), who also happens to be her producer. Susie and Duke have an in-depth conversation about Term Limits -- the pros, the cons, and some alternative solutions -- all without reference to politician, party, or ideology!
For this episode, Susie is joined by her RedState colleague, Jeff Charles, to discuss the concept of Free Speech -- and how it applies in numerous facets of our lives. Again, they do so without reference to politician, party, or ideology. (Can they do that?!)
Continuing with their conversation regarding election integrity, Susie and her brother John discuss absentee and mail-in voting, voting technology -- current and future -- and how we all might be better off if we could rediscover our sense of humor. (All without reference to party, politician (mostly), or ideology.) Grab a beer, whiskey, glass of wine, or non-alcoholic beverage of your choice and settle in for Part Two of their chat!
For the inaugural episode of #MTTP, Susie is joined by her brother John to discuss a hot topic: Election Integrity. There was so much to talk about, it's a two-parter. Can they have a conversation about such a hot button issue without referring to politicians, parties, or ideologies? Grab a beer, whiskey, glass of wine, or non-alcoholic beverage of your choice, settle in, and listen to find out!
