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.

Well, if it isn't obvious from the title of this episode, we're back again breaking down more #CooperClaims. This time, we're talking about the difference between riots and protests; looking at his claims of cooperation between protest organizers, local officials, and media outlets; learning about Color Revolutions; talking about the nuts and bolts of media censorship; and spending more time talking about pee than we ever have before.
Buckle up kids, this one's a wild ride.
