Episode 385 – Hot Potato Topics: She ‘Went There’…Now What?

In as apparently divided a world as we live in, one man has not only stepped up and decided to ‘go there’ on such ‘hot potato’ conversations such as politics and religion, he has even produced a podcast devoted to doing so. Corey Nathan is the producer and host of the popular show ‘Talkin’ Politics And Religion Without Killing Each Other’. And get this…he hasn’t been ‘canceled’ yet.

So what inspired Corey to step into this minefield? What has he personally observed about how people are IRL with each other nowadays? What was the train of events that got us to this point socio-politically?

Wait until you hear Corey’s take on how politics became ‘religion’ in this day and age, along with why it is that so many people somehow love to argue and fight with each other. Next, we discuss how art imitating life has morphed into life imitating art…if you can call the media ‘art’, right?

Further, we go down the rabbit hole of how to handle first date conversations that head into dangerous territory. Is she trying to kill your attraction for each other, or what?

Better yet, get Corey’s top-flight strategy for sensing a divisive conversation before it even happens, and what to say and do in that situation. I have to tell you, it’s pretty genius stuff.
