This is one I've been avoiding doing for a while. If I could boil down politics in one word it would be: CONTROL. What we all seem to crave is a feeling a safety. However, we will never feel safe if we keep demanding others change for our own feelings of safety. Safety comes from a sense of inner-security. I talk about abortion (in a non-partisan, open-minded way), the lockdowns and mandatory V-s during the pandemic, and how taking money out of medicine would solve a lot of our culture wars. Tell me what you think! This is certainly a big topic, with a lot of valid perspectives to consider.   ------------ ABOUT YOUR HOST: Porter Singer is a spiritually-inclined musician, emotional fluency coach, podcaster and the founder of Body Cello.
