Spilling the Tea on Politics

Join us on our podcast where the only thing hotter than the tea is the truth and trust us we're not afraid to spill it. This is where politics meets plain talk. No jargon, no fluff, just straight-up conversations you can follow while you sip your morning coffee... or your evening tea. Listen in for hot takes and truths about how generation can affect politics and how each generation's point of view of political and economical policies is different. Welcome to Spilling the Tea on Politics.
