Interviews with people like you about their lives, what they believe, and why they believe it. First, we meet someone new and learn about their life, then we dig into their opinions on political and social issues of the day and where they get their news. It's not about agreeing or convincing.. It's about trying to understand someone. People are more interesting, with richer life experience, than who they voted for in the last election or some poll result.
