Together, we research and break down complex, and even controversial, topics facing our society. Our goal isn’t to convince you to see things our way. We want to build a foundational understanding of these complicated topics so that we can address them together. We talk about some pretty heavy stuff on this show, and we tackle topics that might feel polarizing. But we do that because we have an important goal in mind: We want to change the way people have hard conversations. And, we think we can do that using research and discussion to create common understanding. And, since you’re here, we hope you want the same thing. So we suggest getting comfortable, and maybe having a good drink on hand as we work through this stuff. Welcome to our fireside.

S2 | Session 5: Insurrectionist Logic - Ukraine Edition!

”We now know that Trump's request for Ukraine to cooperate w/the DOJ regarding Biden's financial activities in Ukraine was in support of an active investigation being pursued by the FBI and Ukraine AG at the time, and so a completely legitimate request.” - Darryl Cooper (@MartyrMade)
Those, sir, are some big claims.
We’re back this week with our second episode breaking down Cooper’s viral Twitter rant. This time, we’re going to jump a little out of order. And, honestly, this one could easily be a series by itself. Buckle up, because it's time to dive into the Ukraine/Biden/Burisma/Trump conspiracy milieu.
Oh! And we have a mystery we hope that you super sleuthy listeners can help us tease out! We get to it toward the end of the episode.
