Episode Synopsis

For the first time in the podcast's history, we have a guest return for an episode! We are once again joined by Dr. Mark Spencer, physician activist, as we discuss the ongoing issues in the Atlanta area with the proposed building of a police/fire training facility. We discuss everything from misuse of city funds to carceral humanism. Issues within our societies are numerous but we won't be able to initiate change without learning about foundational inner workings that make people more vulnerable to negative outcomes.
