Common Good Conversations
A few years ago brothers-in-law Nick Brock and Shawn Skinner started doing the unthinkable at family gatherings – talking about politics and faith at the dinner table. While at times tense and cautious those conversations were filled with curiosity, nuance, grace, and humor. Wanting to lean into that experience they decided to start a podcast. Common Good Conversations is a weekly opportunity for Nick and Shawn to talk about the politics and faith of West Michigan by being curious, nuanced, grace-filled, and humorous; perhaps they’ll learn something along the way.
Common Good Conversations
Educating Voters about Michigan's Election Process, with the Kent County Clerk's Office
Hey, Everybody!
Nick and Shawn had the privilege of being in conversation with Kent County Clerk Lisa Posthumus-Lyons and Chief Deputy Clerk Robert Macomber. The two, both Republicans, have been educating voters about Michigan's new election laws and helping them overcome obstacles to election misinformation.
In this episode you'll learn about the technical term for a cow's udder, Michigan's new election laws, election integrity, if Michigan's Qualified Voter File is bloated and problematic, and debunking the local voting narrative about undocumented immigrants.
