An insightful podcast that discusses the news of the day and cultural issues plaguing our society. The goal of the show is to bring logic and context to these topics and address solutions, something that is rarely discussed by mainstream pundits. The trio has a knack of approaching serious issues with tremendous wit, humility, and occasional humor but never from a place of anger and with absolutely NO BULL!

Charles Love, Shemeka Michelle, and Wilfred Reilly
