Join host Mark Okern and his guests for a discussion of politics and society from the perspective of someone who has been forced to the left as hate has grown on the right. Mark lives in the Minneapolis - St. Paul metro, and has worked on campaigns for both sides of the aisle. He was a co-founder of a large PAC and non-partisan lobbying organization, and had sworn off of politics. That changed with the death of George Floyd, the rise of the alt-right, and an entire political party that didn't take COVID-19 seriously.
