[hosts contributing on this episode: Joey Svendsen, Stoy Prioleau, Amy Alderman, Robbie Madison, Matt Oxley, Jed Payne]

Joey opens up about what he feels may be too much personal apathy about politics and voting.  After sharing with a handful of the show's co-hosts on this one, he's met with more cynicism than he can handle.  Four of the five  present are convinced that the USA "political machine" doesn't care about people; only getting more votes for their team and acquiring more money and power.  And the guilt that many Christians try to push onto those who aren't more involved in political activism isn't merited, nor fair, according to some of the Christians on this one.
