    A Conversation With A Friend Who Believes I Made A Mistake
    Jun 6 2025
    I formally joined the Democratic Party this week. My friend and fellow political traveler Sophia Nelson thinks that was a mistake. Sophia is an author, speaker, and professor. So bcuz we disagree, we decided to have a conversation about it. I also ask her about “Redefining Freedom Center Of Virginia,” an exciting new organization she founded.

  • Policy Disagreements Are Okay. Disagreeing About Democracy Is Not

    Policy Disagreements Are Okay. Disagreeing About Democracy Is Not
    Jun 5 2025
    I gotta be honest, as a new Democrat, I don’t care that much right now about where we disagree on healthcare policy or border policy. We can figure all of that out down the road once we preserve our democracy, once we secure the rule of law. That makes sense, right?

  • I’m Now A Democrat. And Republicans Are Still A Cowardly Mess

    I’m Now A Democrat. And Republicans Are Still A Cowardly Mess
    Jun 4 2025
    Yesterday, I uttered 3 words I never ever thought I would utter - “I’m A Democrat.” Why? Easy. Only one of our two political parties embraces freedom, democracy and the rule of law. And it’s not my former political party. So to best defeat my former political party, I became a Democrat. And btw…my former party is fighting with themselves again over that “big, beautiful” bill.

Joe is a good listen, he tries to see both sides, while still passionately holding onto his beliefs.
He’s real, respectful, but has no issue calling out the bull$hit. He’s also is someone who has no fear, in other words, not afraid to call it as he sees it. He’ll weigh the pro’s and con’s. And he’s changed his views and admits when he’s made mistakes. Joe is a refreshing ex politician and a good listen.

Passionate, powerful, honest and open to other opinions

it's refreshing to listen to a political podcast without having to listen to someone bang on about one side or the other in an openly hostile fashion. We definitely need less hostility and more listening (and hearing) in our political dialogue. Joe has been putting on these style podcasts since he realized that our democracy is in trouble and this new show is just what we need. I don't agree with everything he says but if he's willing to let everyone have their say, I am too. Compromise is a dirty word these days, but it's the only option in a democracy.

Same Joe, new podcast, and worthy of a listen.
