In this episode, I sit down with Sal Naseem. A powerful voice on racism, resilience, and truth. From growing up as a Scottish Pakistani Muslim in Kilmarnock to challenging injustice at the highest levels of UK institutions, Sal's story is raw and remarkable. His early life was marked by violence, survival, and a front-row seat to systemic failures from machete attacks at his family's shop to witnessing police corruption first-hand. These experiences forged a deep understanding of empathy, moral courage, and the cost of speaking out. Now the author of True North, Sal brings insight, vulnerability, and fire to a conversation that doesn't pull any punches.We talk about what real leadership looks like, why he walked away from a senior public role on principle, and how racism, power, and fear operate behind closed doors. We unpacks the myths of imposter syndrome, the dangers organisational ethical drift, bias, and the shifting Overton Window of what society accepts. This episode is about more than race or resilience, it's about all of us. It's a call to challenge the systems and beliefs we take for granted, and to ask: What do I believe? Where did that belief come from? And how do I treat the people who aren't like me?Find Sal HEREFind his book HEREACCESS THE PODCAST LIBRARY & EVERY EPISODE, DEBRIEF & DOCUMENT CLICK HEREPODCAST GIFT - Get your FREE subscription to essential Firefighting publications HERE A big thanks to our partners for supporting this episode.GORE-TEX Professional ClothingMSA The Safety CompanyIDEXFIRE & EVACUATION SERVICE LTD HAIX Footwear - Get offical podcast discount on HAIX HEREXendurance - to hunt performance & endurance 20% off HERE with code ffp20Lyfe Linez -  Get Functional Hydration FUEL for FIREFIGHTERS, Clean no sugar  for daily hydration. 80% of people live dehydratedSupport the showSend us a textSupport the show***The views expressed in this episode are those of the individual speakers.

Cultural Christianity is bad in the Church, but really good in society. If that is true, then we need real christians in church producing culture that impacts society. We can't have fake christians and deists as our only ambassadors to the world. They will fail because they don't know Christ. They don't have the Holy Spirit within them. They don't have the Father's favor.Introduction (00:00:00 - 00:02:09)* Opening Dialogue: The hosts engage in a brief, cryptic exchange about spiritual and metaphysical questions, referencing a psychologist's inability to address good and evil without Jesus as the answer.* Podcast Welcome (00:01:05): Introduction to the Kingsplaining Podcast, self-described as the "I Told You Show," hosted by the two kings of the "Rube Empire."* Hosts introduce themselves as right-wing extremists, supernaturalists, and Christian bigots with a humorous tone.* Philosopher King: Claims 51% of the power, resides in the "Ivory Tower," and shares a satirical rumor about nicotine and caffeine producing protein.* Strong One: The "people's champ," references missing "Dusty" (a recurring figure), and emphasizes his grounded perspective.* Episode Setup: The hosts express readiness to dive into controversial topics with their signature unfiltered style.Segment 1: Marriage and Public Perception (00:02:09 - 00:08:12)* Topic: Marital disputes and public image, with a focus on French President Emmanuel Macron's alleged altercation with his spouse.* Key Points:* The hosts discuss their long marriages (15 and 19 years) and how time flies in a fulfilling relationship.* They pivot to a hypothetical marital dispute scenario, emphasizing the importance of resolving conflicts privately, especially under public scrutiny.* A controversial anecdote about Macron being “manhandled” by his “he-wife” (a derogatory reference to his spouse, Brigitte Macron) before exiting a plane, highlighting the embarrassment of public disputes.* Reference to Candace Owens' podcast, which claims Brigitte Macron is transgender, sparking a discussion about media narratives and public perception.* Comparison to Donald Trump's advice (from an interview with Elon Musk) to resolve disputes before facing the press, contrasting Macron's embarrassment with Trump's media savvy.* Themes:* Public image and political optics.* Gender roles and traditional masculinity.* Criticism of progressive narratives and media manipulation.Segment 2: Atheism and Jordan Peterson's Debate (00:08:12 - 00:29:15)* Topic: Jordan Peterson's debate with 20 atheists and his inability to defend a Christian worldview.* Key Points:* The hosts mock atheists' selective outrage against Christianity (Yahweh) while ignoring other religions like Buddhism or Islam, suggesting atheists target truth (Jesus).* Discussion of Peterson's intellectualism, labeling him a “king of gobbledygook” who relies on psychological archetypes rather than affirming Jesus as the divine truth.* Critique of Peterson's deist stance and failure to embrace Christianity fully, referencing his recent interviews and a podcast with John Rich (of Big & Rich).* The hosts argue that truth and reality are symbiotic, and atheism (like Peterson's intellectualism) abandons both by rejecting God.* Comparison to other intellectuals (e.g., Thomas Sowell, G.K. Chesterton) who critique over-educated “imbecility” and scientism (e.g., Neil deGrasse Tyson, Bill Nye).* Anecdote about Destiny (a streamer) taking his son to Auschwitz to counter Holocaust skepticism, illustrating the futility of arguing without a foundation in truth.* Themes:* Rejection of intellectualism without faith.* Defense of Christian truth as the ultimate reality.* Critique of atheism and scientism as grounded in denial.Segment 3: Cultural Shifts in Music and Media (00:21:30 - 00:24:11)* Topic: The decline of positive music and its psychological impact.* Key Points:* The Strong One shares a study claiming 99% of 1980s and 1990s music had positive lyrics (e.g., Def Leppard, Run DMC), compared to only 12% today.* Discussion of how modern music is formulaic, robotic, and degenerate, contributing to cultural decay.* Brief tangent about the hosts' music preferences (grunge, metal, country) and a humorous debate about rap as a “psyop” funded by undisclosed entities.* Themes:* Cultural degradation through media.* Nostalgia for positive cultural influences.* Suspicion of corporate agendas in entertainment.Segment 4: Toxic Masculinity and Political Alienation (01:28:10 - 01:39:19)* Topic: The Democratic Party's alienation of young men and the concept of toxic masculinity.* Key Points:* The hosts argue that Democrats have demonized masculinity, rewarding “feminine” boys and punishing natural male behavior, leading to resentment.* Critique of media and education (unionized, Democratic teachers) for promoting “toxic masculinity” narratives and undermining traditional gender roles.* Discussion of a failed Democratic campaign ad featuring “burly” men supporting Kamala Harris, mocked as inauthentic and “zesty” (a slang term for effeminate behavior).* Assertion that men have a “gaydar” (instinctual disgust toward homosexuality), backed by a cited study claiming 98% of men react negatively to same-sex displays.* Advice to Democrats: To regain male support, they must embrace America-first policies, traditional families, and stop promoting progressive ideals (e.g., abortion, transgenderism).* Themes:* Defense of traditional masculinity.* Political polarization and male disenfranchisement.* Rejection of progressive social policies.Segment 5: Entertainment as a Cultural Wake-Up Call (01:39:19 - 01:46:57)* Topic: The role of entertainment in awakening men to cultural decline.* Key Points:* The hosts pinpoint the “woke” overhaul of entertainment (e.g., Star Wars, Arnold Schwarzenegger's “Screw Your Freedoms” comment) as a turning point for men rejecting progressive narratives.* Examples include Luke Skywalker's emasculation, Rose Tico's arc in The Last Jedi, and sports controversies (e.g., NFL kneeling, pink shoes for breast cancer awareness).* Argument that men initially tolerated progressive changes to please women but rebelled when their heroes were vilified, stripping them of aspirational myths.* Connection to broader cultural hatred of masculinity and Christianity, driving men toward traditional values and faith.* Themes:* Cultural betrayal through entertainment.* Reclamation of masculine archetypes.* Spiritual awakening through cultural pushback.Segment 6: Embracing Christian Extremism and the Overton Window (01:47:00 - 01:58:08)* Topic: Rejecting compromise and embracing a radical Christian identity.* Key Points:* The Strong One declares himself a “right-wing Christian nationalist extremist,” inspired by Kanye West's song “Hail Hitler,” which he interprets as a defiant response to being labeled evil for wanting to see his children.* Critique of the Overton window as skewed toward Satan, with cultural Christianity unfairly demonized by figures like Tim Keller.* Defense of cultural Christianity outside the church as a net positive, preventing societal ills like transgenderism, abortion, and “sodomy” celebration.* Rejection of seeker-sensitive compromise, advocating for unapologetic Christian truth to shame wickedness and restore societal norms.* Examples of being demonized for rejecting COVID narratives (masks, vaccines) and public schools as “dens of Satan.”* Call to run toward Jesus without meeting the world halfway, citing Psalms 4:7-8 for peace and safety in God alone.* Themes:* Uncompromising Christian faith.* Reclamation of cultural Christianity.* Defiance against secular labels and norms.Closing (01:58:08 - 01:59:58)* Prayer (01:58:13): The Philosopher King prays for empowerment to speak truth, avoid cultural Christianity in the church, and foster a national Christian culture through the Holy Spirit.* Outro (01:59:27):* Reiteration of the podcast as the “I Told You Show” and home of the “Rube Empire,” where taxes are voluntary, and the hosts serve Jesus.* Call to action: Like, share, subscribe, buy merchandise, and support the show at Kingsplaining.com.* Sign-off: “Peace out. God bless.”Notable Quotes* “Truth and reality are symbiotic. They have to be together. You can't have truth without reality.” (00:19:15)* “I'm done trying to fit into the Overton window of right and left... I'm an extremist. Cool beans.” (00:52:17)* “I want liberty because that's what Christ died on the cross for. Freedom from sin.” (00:52:26)* “I want some of that cultural Christianity back because you wouldn't have tranny madness.” (00:54:31)* “I'm not meeting you in the middle anymore. You can look at my rear end the whole time.” (00:57:23)Themes and Tone* Core Themes: Defense of traditional masculinity, unapologetic Christian faith, rejection of progressive ideologies, and critique of cultural compromise.* Tone: Provocative, irreverent, and confrontational, with frequent use of humor, sarcasm, and derogatory language to challenge secular norms and “woke” culture.* Target Audience: Conservative Christians, particularly men, who feel alienated by modern societal shifts.Additional Notes* The podcast frequently references pop culture (e.g., Star Wars, Arnold Schwarzenegger) and political figures (e.g., Trump, Macron, Obama) to ground its arguments.* The hosts' self-described “extremism” is framed as a biblical mandate to reject compromise with a sinful world.* The show's unfiltered style is acknowledged as potentially shocking to “normies” (mainstream listeners), with Dusty (a recurring figure) cited as a moderating influence.Support the Show: Visit Kingsplaining.com to subscribe, share, or purchase merchandise.Next Episode: Tune in next week for more unfiltered commentary from the Rube Empire.

David Waldman and Greg Dworkin recalled that today was Wednesday, and many more useful and interesting things on today's KITM: MAGA didn't just move the Overton Window, they... threw it out the window. We now expect a punch in the face over a handshake. We expect losers to win, winners to lose, enemies to have our back, and fools to inform us. How much should politicians follow political consultants and polls? Well, let's consult the numbers with this expert! Like no other president before him, Donald K. Trump feels the pain of jury-convicted celebrity tax-cheats and fraudsters who hate Joe Biden and arrange to give him $1 million or more up front. Poor Elon! The only way Musk would ever get a Starship to Mars is if he took the stick and flew it himself. MAHA! A-ha! “Ah... No” say the different factions of crazy in health nuts. Honky Tonk Man wanted to be the “El Kabong” of WWF, but he was more like the “JD Vance” ... who btw has Jeb Bush charisma wrapped in Steven Miller whimsicality. Meanwhile, Senate Democrats could do something, if only Senate Democrats did things. People who do fight Trump, do win.

Is Reform UK about to reshape British politics? I sat down with political commentator Rafe Heydel-Mankoo to explore whether Reform could take over the Tory party—or replace it entirely. Could Nigel Farage really become Prime Minister? We dive into the rise of Reform, the mass immigration debate, Islam and cultural compatibility, sectarian violence in Britain, and the growing backlash from ordinary voters. Has the Overton Window shifted permanently? Will the Conservative-Reform split hand Labour a win? And is the UK heading for a once-in-a-century political realignment? Rafe also shares his provocative ideas on fixing Britain's refugee crisis and whether the evidence behind “diversity is our strength” holds up.

In this week's episode, two of Moser Consulting's own, Jim McKean and Marcus Reed, join us to discuss The Overton Window and how to control it.The Overton Window concept describes the range of ideas or policies considered socially acceptable or politically possible at any given moment. Named after Joseph Overton, a policy analyst, the idea suggests that public perception sets the boundaries of what's feasible. This means that for any idea to gain traction, it first must fall within this 'window of acceptability.'

The same thing applies to the budget and spending cuts. They are underestimating the mandate they have to actually eliminate programs. Trump needs to use his megaphone to explain how we are subsidizing unaffordability with these very programs both parties have supported. Sadly, they are on the cusp of playing "Lucy and the football" with the budget bill. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

How is Trump's executive order redefining the language permissible in scientific research, and what does it mean for academic freedom? Today, we examine the complexities surrounding scientific research under shifting political landscapes with Ivan Oransky, a seasoned medical journalist and co-founder of Retraction Watch. Oransky discusses the implications of President Trump's executive orders and how it has sent ripples throughout the scientific community, causing researchers to reconsider their work amidst existential uncertainties. Oransky explores the nuanced relationship between government funding and scientific inquiry. This episode unpacks the historical precedents of government involvement in research, tracing back to the 1940s, and examines the mounting challenges faced by scientists under the recent policy changes. Oransky provides a critical analysis of how such directives potentially stifle open inquiry and drive talented researchers away, ultimately impacting the future landscape of scientific discovery. In This Episode:Implications of Trump's executive orders on scientific researchHistorical context of government funding in scientific researchThe impact of political climates on scientific inquiry and transparencyChallenges of anticipatory obedience within research communitiesIvan Oransky's insights on sustaining open and rigorous scientific dialogue About Ivan:Ivan Oransky, MD, is the co-founder of Retraction Watch, the Editor in Chief of The Transmitter, and a Distinguished Journalist in Residence at New York University's Carter Journalism Institute, where he teaches medical journalism.

Our long-running intramural argument on this podcast over the Ukraine War has become just like the Ukraine War itself—lots of casualties on both sides, but very little movement from week to week. But is Trump actually on the cusp of a breakout? There's one thing Trump did this week that is surely causing Putin to wipe the smile off his face, and no one seems to have figured it out. It's all part of Trump's Great Reset. There is more unanimity amongst the 3WHH bartenders about Gaza, and once again Trump's seemingly outrageous or whimsical ideas of making Gaza into Atlantic City doesn't just move the Overton Window in the Middle East—it remodels the whole structure.

The Overton Window is a socio-political concept denoting the “politically accepted view of the moment/time.” It's the perspective through which modern culture deems that which is acceptable. But is this a Christian concept and how should we as believers respond to the Overton Window of our culture … especially when it appears the window is moving closer to a biblical perspective. In this timely and profound conversation, Eric and Nathan discuss the difference between the Overton Window and the “Canon/Biblical Window” and what we should do about it.

In this episode, after taking a week off of podcasting, Alex tries to make sense of what has happened over the last 24 hours. Since the second inauguration of Donald Trump, he has renamed the Gulf of Mexico, pardoned over 1500 J6 insurrectionists, declared an emergency at the Southern Border, frozen hiring in the federal government, and so much more. Alex argues that the country has changed since 2017, as the Overton Window has surged rightwards. He thinks that we are no longer the frog in boiling water, the frog is dead, it has been cooked, and the water has mostly evaporated.

[SEGMENT 2-1] Winning back the country 1 - Google's ad policy - Advertorial I will be posting a new segment for members of the Subscribers. Thanks for the wonderful feedback on the other show. I promise this one will be just as riveting. And I will not post it outside for others. That's my reward to you for helping me with the cost of freedom. It's not cheap, and my wife reminds me of our sacrifice, daily. Visit TKJN.com to see all that we do, all that you help us to do when you support my work.

I got an email from Google, and it's alarming. It is a company who curtails our freedom of speech. Consider that what Google does blatantly violates that right.   We do not allow content that: makes claims that are demonstrably false and could significantly undermine participation or trust in an electoral or democratic process. Examples: information about public voting procedures, political candidate eligibility based on age or birthplace, election results, or census participation that contradicts official government records promotes harmful health claims, or relates to a current, major health crisis and contradicts authoritative scientific consensus. Examples: Anti-vaccine advocacy, denial of the existence of medical conditions such as AIDS or Covid-19, gay conversion therapy contradicts authoritative scientific consensus on climate change.   There is nothing about these subjects that should have allowed this nonsense to occur.  [SEGMENT 2-2] Winning back the country 2 - Trump's victories   [X] SB – Trump incited an erection   An acquaintance of mine reminded me of Trump's victories. But not in the classic sense. We know that President Trump won against the nonsense of him colluding with the Russians. He then defeated the Democrats in two impeachments.

But not in the classic sense. We know that President Trump won against the nonsense of him colluding with the Russians. He then defeated the Democrats in two impeachments. Then the Deep State swamp rats got him in 2020, or so they thoughts. The Unprecedented Fall of Dynasties Donald Trump didn't just enter politics; he detonated a political neutron bomb, reducing dynasties and institutions to rubble. To understand the magnitude of his victories, we must dissect the legacies of those he upended—and explore how these interconnected families and power structures came to dominate Washington, D.C., only to be obliterated by the one-man wrecking crew I affectionately call, The Donald. In these wars, Trump toppled political titans in a not so quiet revolution. The Bush Dynasty: From Bluebloods to Afterthoughts Let's begin with the Bush family. They epitomized Washington royalty, and their political journey began with Prescott Bush, a U.S. Senator from Connecticut and financier with deep Wall Street ties. George H.W. Bush expanded the family's clout as CIA Director, Vice President, and eventually President. Son of H.W. and older brother George "W" Bush would follow in the footsteps of his father, proving that the Bush political apparatus was a well-oiled machine—intertwined with defense contractors, oil conglomerates, and the military-industrial complex. Younger brother to W, Jeb Bush was elected as the governor of Florida. The role was considered a stepping stone to Jeb's inevitable role as president. In the 2016 race to the White House, Jeb Bush was a foregone as the Republican candidate, and ultimately the office in which both his father and brother had served--a feat no family in American history has ever accomplished. Instead, "Low Energy" Jeb was humiliated by Trump during the 2016 GOP primary. Trump's taunts reduced Jeb's campaign to a punchline (“Please clap”) eventually. Further, Trump exposed how disconnected the Bushes had become from the Republican base. The family's once formidable influence crumbled as Trump made the GOP his party, leaving the Bushes grasping for relevance. [SEGMENT 2-4] Winning back the country 4   The Clintons: From “Arkansas Hillbillies” to Fallen Aristocracy The Clintons' ascent from Little Rock to political royalty is legendary. Bill Clinton's charisma and Hillary Clinton's ambition transformed them into one of the most influential political families in modern history. Their control over the Democratic Party was unshakable—until Trump emerged. Hillary's 2016 loss to Trump wasn't just a political defeat; it was a repudiation of Clintonism. The Clinton Foundation, once a money-magnet for global elites, faced scrutiny and decline as Trump's presidency shined a light on the pay-to-play culture that defined their empire. Bill and Hillary, who once believed the White House was their birthright, now find themselves sidelined. The Obama Machine: Legacy Players with Little to Show Barack Obama's presidency was marked by soaring rhetoric, cultural symbolism, and the establishment of a political apparatus designed to endure. Figures like Susan Rice, John Brennan, and others from his administration transitioned seamlessly into roles that allowed them to target Trump. However, Trump systematically dismantled their achievements, from pulling out of the Iran nuclear deal to appointing judges who undermined the progressive agenda. More significantly, Trump exposed the hollowness of Obama's supposed “scandal-free” administration, revealing how figures like James Comey and John Kerry weaponized institutions against him. And while Obama's legacy appointees did manage to dethrone Trump, their victory turned out to be short-lived. The Bidens: The Crooked Crown Joe Biden represented the Democrats' last, desperate attempt to consolidate power. Trump's relentless focus on Hunter Biden's laptop, Ukrainian corruption, and the family's LLC schemes painted a damning portrait of systemic graft. Despite media efforts to shield the Bidens, Trump exposed their operations in ways that even Democrats now begrudgingly acknowledge. Joe Biden's presidency, a fraught combination of incompetence and malfeasance, underscores Trump's victory. The “most votes in history” president is now a symbol of failure, corruption, and political overreach. Hypocrisy, Irony, and the Deep State The interdependence of these families—Clintons, Bushes, Obamas, Bidens—and their shared animosity toward Trump speaks volumes. They were Washington's version of medieval feudal lords, trading favors and power while America's middle class bore the cost. Trump shattered this illusion. His presidency was a mirror exposing their hypocrisies:The Bushes, who profited from endless wars, denounced Trump's America First policies while pretending to care about national unity.The Clintons, champions of gutter politics, raked in millions from foreign despots while lecturing the public on ethics.The Obamas, race-pimp who decried wealth inequality, became multi-millionaires from book deals, Netflix, and corporate speaking gigs.The Bidens, cloaked in “Scranton Joe” populism, exemplified nepotism and greed.The Final Boss: The Deep State The Deep State is the last domino that needs to fall. Trump has battled shadowy bureaucracies and intelligence networks since his first campaign, courtesy of all the aforementioned players. These are the forces that orchestrated the Russia collusion hoax, the impeachments, and the raid on Mar-a-Lago with a "kill order". Trump's resilience in the face of such unprecedented opposition—multiple indictments, attacks on his family, and even attempts on his life—underscores his singularity. Washington, D.C., isn't just afraid of Trump; it's terrified of what his return represents: the dismantling of their carefully constructed web of influence. Trump's Legacy: A Movement, Not a Moment Trump's most significant victory isn't his return to power; it's the movement he's created. By exposing the rot in D.C., he's shifted the Overton Window and redefined what's possible. The dynasties may regroup, but their mystique is gone. As Trump once famously said, “They're not after me; they're after you. I'm just standing in the way.” With each victory, he proves that statement truer than ever. Trump didn't just defeat the families of Washington. He defeated the idea that they were untouchable. He showed them that if cut, they too bleed. That, above all, may be his greatest triumph.   An acquaintance of mine reminded me of Trump's victories. But not in the classic sense. We know that President Trump won against the nonsense of him colluding with the Russians. He then defeated the Democrats in two impeachments. Then the Deep State swamp rats got him in 2020, or so they thoughts. But let's take a step back and look at what else he defeated, that most people haven't considered.

I was in Dallas with my son for a podcasting conference in August. It was a blast, especially hanging out with my son. We stayed at the downtown Sheraton, which afforded us the ability to walk the city a bit. I also had the opportunity to connect in person with two former guests of the Smart Cleaning School. I went to lunch with Greg Shepard from "Sail Around the World". We had a blast walking around the city and enjoying a quality Mexican meal. Greg is a friend and definitely a mentor. He stretches me big time. The day after lunch with Greg, I had a personal tour and breakfast with Debbie Sardone from "A Buffalo Charges the Storm". Debbie is highly regarded coach in the residential cleaning industry as well as a friend and mentor. Back to my son and walking Dallas. I really, really wanted to visit Dealey Plaza. As a kid, I was enamored with the movie "JFK" starring Kevin Costner. The movie makes a compelling case for a second gunman on the grassy knoll. I have seen the Zapruder film so many times, that I already felt like I've been there. I was wrong. Being there was different. Kenny and I walked into Dealey Plaza. I was in awe. He knew more about the Lincoln assassination than Kennedy, so I described it as best I could. That's when I noticed a guy with a bike helmet and bike showing the Zapruder film and explaining the details of the assassination. Kenny and I walked over to listen. We stood on Elm Street in front of the old Texas State Book Depository as he pointed to the 6th floor corner window. The window is half open with boxes arranged exactly as they were in crime scene photographs. He paused the video on his phone and pointed to the first large "X" on Elm Street. This is where JFK was struck the first time in the neck. He played the Zapruder film. We could see Kennedy grab his neck. It was too surreal. He kept the film running as JFK was struck with the kill shot. He pointed to the second "X" on Elm Street. "On November 22nd, 1963, that's where an American President was assassinated." Chilling. We thanked him for his history lesson and walked the plaza. We stood on the "X" and took a picture. We stood on the grassy knoll and took a picture. We stood where Abraham Zapruder took the movie and yep, we took a picture. It was much, much different in real life. Dealey Plaza is virtually unchanged in 59 years. History is powerful, especially when we can be there in person.There's a reason I shared this story. In the early 1960's, John F. Kennedy was beloved and respected. He was a member of the Democrat Party and generally regarded to have political views left of center. He considered himself a Liberal, yet he opposed Communism, supported the 2nd Amendment, and voted for tax cuts. Those were positions held by the Democrat Party then. Today, these same policy beliefs would be called Republican. Here's what I find interesting. If JFK were running for office right now, he would likely be a moderate Republican. This is not my opinion. You can search it online and read for yourself. That's not the point of this podcast. Here's the point. JFK didn't change. How could he. He's been dead for 59 years. What did change? Now we're asking the right question. It's called the Overton Window and I find it fascinating.Read the rest of this article at the Smart Cleaning School website
