In this episode, Bassey and Mike actually remember to press record 20 minutes after starting the conversation... They also discuss the chaotic political landscape, reflecting on their frustrations and fatigue with the current state of affairs. They explore the media's role in shaping narratives, the impact of past decisions on present realities, and the challenges of activism in a seemingly hopeless environment. The conversation delves into the obsession with conflict in politics, the implications of racial tensions, and the need for vigilance and preparedness in a hostile climate. Ultimately, they emphasize the importance of acknowledging the unprecedented times we live in and the necessity of staying engaged and aware.
Special Alert:
There is some doom & gloom in this episode... but we really believe this is where we have to be RIGHT NOW. We can't rely on and default to optimism. We have to face this monster in the eye to know exactly what we're dealing with to move toward solution. It's dark... but it has to be... and there will be light... tomorrow.
