Welcome back to "Weighty Conversations!" In Episode 11, Jon and Rod interview Jose Robles, who is not a communist, but is a self proclaimed Democratic Socialist. We asked Jose to come on the podcast in order to better understand exactly what the Democratic Socialist movement is all about, what they want to accomplish, and how, if they get their way, will it directly impact America. We ran out of time but not questions, so Jose will be back soon for a part 2 of the the conversation. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app
