The Middle American
Far left. Far right. Conservative. Liberal. Republican. Democrat. Can't fully relate? Me either. But nearly all public discourse and media is centered upon the views share by one of the two political parties - and often those shouting the loudest from the extremes of both sides. This isn't just a political podcast. It's a podcast on life and society, with politics mixed in. But from a viewpoint we do not hear enough from - the middle.

First Presidential Debate Debacle
Biden bombs. Trump meanders. The Debacle of a Debate was an overall embarrassment. In a debate that viewers cared more about what they saw versus what was said, we saw a lot. Enough that calls for Biden to withdraw from the race have surged, even amongst Democrats. But there were things said as well. Like denying having sex with a porn star. Felony accusations. Comments on weight. And even a comparison of golf handicaps. Biden supporters are despondent while Trump supporters are elated. But both feelings may be premature. Keep Biden, and the Democrats will lose in November. But Trump did not perform to a level where he would beat a replacement, and that should concerns those popping celebratory bottles today.
