round table MINDSET
Drowning in the noise? Tired of debates that go nowhere? Round Table MINDSET cuts through the chaos with bold, unfiltered conversations on the issues that matter. No echo chambers. No screaming matches. Just honest dialogue that challenges assumptions, sparks curiosity, and exposes you to perspectives you won’t hear anywhere else. 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
