Listen "It's National Paranormal Day - seems like a great time to talk politics (#019)"
Episode Synopsis
Every now and then, Rob and I have an opportunity to talk politics. We're not members of the same political party, but there's a healthy level of respect and a shared interest in finding solutions and working together, so we tend to work through the nuanced differences of opinion we have and arrive at shared (and I think better) solutions to problems.Not so when it comes to political leadership in this country.And there isn't a better demonstration of that fact than yesterday's leak of the coming ruling on Roe v Wade. It's a new political crisis in a decade that seems to have been nothing but one political crisis after another.Rob and I take a break from talking just about genre entertainment and discuss the concerns we have (some shared, some not) for our country.If you're expecting a light, fluffy talk about comic book movies, you might want to skip this podcast today. If you'd rather learn something about the hosts and where we're coming from and, I think, how we're able to disagree occasionally without being disagreeable and find points in common rather than points in conflict, then, by all means, give this a listen.I'll be writing more about all this on the ROADTRIPPIN' blog later today (and will probably post it this evening).

Just click on the "Contact Us" button in the main navigation of our website at postgeeksingularity.com and you'll be able to send us a message to let us know how we're doing and what's on your mind.We look forward to hearing from you.I invite you to listen in on my weekday conversations with my friend and business partner, Robert Meyer Burnett, as we talk about the things we love: great movies, inspiring television programming, nostalgic genre entertainment, and pop culture.This episode streamed on May 2, 2022.
