The Grief of Politics

Avin and I dive in to the recent protest on campus and the utility of protest and what they mean for the first amendment. It’s a long and great discussion this week.

Avin and I talk about Trump in 2024. The problems he will face and the uphill climb both he and Joe Biden have in the Presidential Race. We talk about Trumps felony convictions as well as his recent statements on abortion.

Avin and I talk about Biden and the struggles he will have to deal with trying to win the presidency in 2024. Is there too much stacked against him? We talk about that and why haven't other candidates stepped forward? It's a great discussion.

Avin and I had to talk about the upcoming election. We give updates on Trump and Biden and give our thoughts on who we are voting for and the general insanity of it all.

So, Avin and I finally did it. We finally decided to be the only podcasters to talk about Elon Musk on the internet. It’s a bit of a long talk but it’s totally worth listening to the whole thing. I promise.

For a long time now Avin and I have talked about this but never really made it a topic for the podcast. Well that ends with this episode. We talk about it, we disagree and we have a pretty good conversation about it in the end.

Avin and I talk about the Israel-Hamas conflict. It’s a longer episode this week so if you want to listen to two people talk about it in a resonable manor and not yell at one another this episode is for you. Also, don’t forget to share the episode with friends and family.

Avin talked about something deeply personal this time. Why are people leaving the faith? What happens when those people hold onto their ideas even when they have less community and fellowship, and how does that affect the larger political debate.

I picked again, and well, it’s all that’s in the news. We do use articles to go off of but really Avin nails the 2024 election down to one thing and he’s right. We will talk about all of it on this episode

Along with many new revelations from the various Trump indictments comes that face that people are being threatened for even doing their jobs. Avin and I break down the incidents that have followed Trump’s words and the actions by his supporters and how it has affected people in the day to day.

TGoP Episode 30-Trump Indictment by Avin Carroll and Joseph Carlson

Over the last several years it seems like the broader feeling in the US is that the news just isn’t a trustworthy as it use to be. In this episode of The Grief of Politics, Joe and Avin discuss their viewpoints on the current state of Mainstream Media and alternate Media. They focus on the latest from the Fox News lawsuit, the Twitter Files, and the now infamous CNN Town Hall with Donald Trump. Te...

TGoP Episode 28-Voter's Rights by Avin Carroll and Joseph Carlson

It was my turn to pick this week so I decided to go backwards. Just kidding.

Avin chose this week so he and I talked about the Second Amendment. Again, a nice light episode. Enjoy.

Avin and I catch up with all the news that happened at end of the year and local election results.

Avin was feeling great this month, so we actually got to have a discussion about housing this time, instead of me just reading his notes. Enjoy.

I chose housing this month and Avin was sick. The episode is a bit short, but I think we may talk about this again next month when Avin feels better.

It was my turn and Avin and I talk about the cost of running out of water. It was a little dark but we talk about hope in the end.

Avin and I just had to talk about the raid at Mar-a-Lago.

It was Avin’s turn to pick. He had five articles and we whittled it down to three. Enjoy.

It was my turn to pick this month and I chose this topic. Enjoy. If you want to watch the full video of our discussion go to YouTube and type in The Grief of Politics and search Episode 18. Thanks.

Avin chose to talk about taxes and the rich. We had some technical issues, but I think it turned out alright in the end.
