Tawnya's brother DeMarco makes his seasonal visit to the podcast; this time in a professional capacity as a community organizer. They break down some of the lyrics to Billy Joel's iconic song "We Didn't Start The Fire" and get into an in depth discussion about how many of the things mentioned are still relevant today. What role do you play in helping to put out the fires? What is "political hobbyism" and "righteous anger"? Tune in to find out.
