Welcome back for the second half of our two-part episode interviewing Donald Trump's voters! This week, it's all about the women. Both the interviewers & interviewees this time around are women—which we thought was necessary since at least 53% of white women voted for Donald Trump in November. First up, Cheryl talks to Anna, a young mom and Marine wife who works for The Center for Bioethical reform. In the second half, our friend Myrrh (Marian) interviews a passionate older voter outside of Waco, Texas. Music this week by Louis the Child, Bensound, Laurent Dury, and Kt.
Welcome back for the first episode of season two! To start off this season, we thought we should find out some more about the voters who helped elect President Trump this past November and why they did it—to most of our surprise! In our first part of this two-part episode, we speak with Mike, a lifetime conservative from South Carolina, and Matthew, a religious gay male from New Mexico. Happy listening!
For the final episode of the season Stephen and Cheryl interview with a wide range of voters who are less than excited about the two major party nominees. We found Democrats voting for Trump, Republicans voting for Clinton, and everything in between. Music this week by: Bensound Music and Laurent Dury.
This episode Cheryl & Stephen take you through a timeline of the most important elements in a successful presidential run.

This episode we worked a little extra hard for all of you and rounded up four incredible interviews with Hispanic/Latino supporters of the top four presidential candidates. The order is: Ellie an immigrant brought over the border as a child, supporting Hillary Clinton; Miguel, a deported Mexican citizen and avid Trump supporter; Susy, an immigrant from Cuba with a unique perspective on politics and Bernie Sanders; and Justin, a multi-generational conservative & Tucsonian, supporting Ted Cruz. Music this week by Louis the Child and Bensound.
This week, Stephen and Cheryl outline what exactly The Affordable Care Act (ObamaCare)actually is, so that, once and for all, we can finally decide if we like it—or not. Music this week by Louis the Child and Bensound.
This week we talk to Janelle, a young passionate teacher who gets chewed up and spit out of the education system in New Mexico. Then in the second half, we dive into the new Common Core standards, and try find out where things might be going wrong for teachers like Janelle. Music this episode by Louis the Child & Kygo.
This week, Cheryl and Stephen try to get to the bottom of the constant fight between parties about guns and gun legislation. Will we find any common ground? Tune in to find out—bullet-proof vests not required. Music this week by Louis the Child & Kygo.
This week we have two back-to-back interviews with educated women about their college debt: One woman, Xavier, sees her loans as a stepping stone to get her into an elite career track. While the other woman, Elyse, says her loans have essentially ruined her life. Music this week by Louis the Child and Kygo.
This week on Suspend Belief, we attempt to lift the veil on all that makes abortion and Planned Parenthood the fire-starter of political hatred—and hopefully we even find a sliver of potential for sweet sweet compromise. Music this week by Louis the Child. SuspendBeliefPodcast.Com
