Production note: I apologize for the first 10 minutes of really poor sound quality. My microphone was facing the wrong direction. Sit back, relax, fast forward if you need to, and let us know ...

June 16, 2020 18:00 - 58 minutes - 40.3 MBIn light of everything that’s going on in the world, we want to be real and discuss it. What’s going on? There is a global pandemic and hundreds of thousands of people are dying in the U.S. and all over the world.

Protests, riots, and a generally in...
