Co-hosts Mahlon and Jamie are polar opposites—gender, politics, religion, worldview—but after 30+ years of friendship, they’ve mastered the art of tackling tough topics with respect, humor, and a lot of heart. We don't just talk about the tough stuff—we dig into it. Got a perspective? A question? A challenge? Pull up a chair and join the conversation and be part of something real. New episodes drop the 2nd and 4th Thursday. Phone: (402) 819-8999 Email: roundtablemindset@gmail.com Facebook: Round Table Mindset Podcast
