The Aisle Podcast
The aisle can bring us together, or the aisle can separate us. The aisle is a path that can lead to a destination of connection and reconciliation. It is a clearing that is kept free of the clutter of confusion, dissension and hostility. And, it is an inviting opening to friend or foe alike where understanding is promoted, civility nourished, and harmonious relationships developed. In these podcasts, we will explore just how the aisle has influenced our leaders and public servants; Republicans and Democrats, elected and appointed. Join us in the Aisle where together we can deepen our understanding of the things that separate us, and explore how we can work together for the common good.
