E20 Level Up - VOTING 101 with Matthew E Fox

Knowledge Action Success presents: VOTING 101 with Matthew E. Fox

Welcome to episode 9 of The Knowledge Action Success coaching series Level Up podcast.

Today's supercharged episode is in response to the media's very biased brainwashing views of the presidential election.  News feeds and social media algorithms are telling us how to think.  I have had some wild conversations with random folks, friends, family, and neighbors and it truly seems we all forgot how to vote.

My hope/intention is to get people to think for themselves again and be able to navigate through all the fear, hate and accusations we are bombarded with everyday and vote with an educated and informed choice by heading back to the basics.

Let me introduce to you our "professor" for today's show, Mr. Matthew Fox and let me tell you why he is the man for the job.

Matt is a proud graduate of The University of Michigan, Duke Law School, and Johns Hopkins School of Advanced International Studies.  Beginning his career under the first President Bush, Matt held positions with the Department of State, where he focused on the Middle East and counter-proliferation issues, and later the Department of the Interior, dealing with domestic energy production.  In 2015 he left the federal government and now finds himself working on issues related to international affairs, most notably as the author of the Monday Morning Diplomat substack.  In his spare time, he has worked on political campaigns as an advisor to the candidate and has taught classes and lectured on US government and the political process.   

 We try not to give any political bias (you get enough already), but instead bring you the knowledge and voting value that we all so desperately need now.  So listen up, "level up" and get out there and feel confident (not arrogant) in your educated VOTE.
