Ooo I like the sound of this! I need something less depressing to listen to than my current list of podcasts!
I studied political science, and thought that's what I wanted to do, but I got burnt out after actually working with politicians and as precinct committeeman. So. Much. Infighting. I took a brief break, but I still find myself wanting to be in the know and discuss politics as much as possible.

I am more like you, except lean a bit more conservative libertarian. My husband on the other hand is a far left democrat. hilarity ensues

I am looking forward to this podcast! Welcome!
