Sox and Sandals Podcast
This podcast exists to create dialogue among people with various worldviews. Our faith, religion, political stance, etc are things in society that we easily allow to drive us apart. Trust me, Sox and Sandals is all for a good debate every now and then, but there comes a time when we have to put ego aside and allow the individual define who they are, and for subject matter experts to be given the room to speak on the subject at hand. We ascribe to so many labels now days that we think we know who someone is or what they're about before they even put two sentences together. I believe that if we take the time to understand each other's worldview we can achieve meaningful change that will set up the next generation for true long lasting success. Here at Sox & Sandals compassion is key, love is the ultimate ethic, and everything thing we do is for the greater good of society.

It's election season! It's time to vote for the people that tell us what we want to hear! It's time to put our trust in new people because the people we trusted 4 years ago, well... They're just like everyone else that let us down in the past, right? Oh yeah, and Ye is in his rant bag once again, so there's that too.
